PolarSys: Maturity and Innovation for Open Source Tools for the Engineering of Embedded Systems
Abstract
This paper presents PolarSys, the industrial open source community for the development and maturation of tools for the engineering of embedded systems. PolarSys was created in 2012 as an Eclipse Industry Working Group, a super community starting in the aerospace domain and quickly attracting other industry domains which rely a lot on embedded systems like Telecommunication PolarSys fosters open innovation to create better methods and tools, targets more computer assistance and automation in the development of complex and critical embedded systems, and addresses specific issues like tool qualification and support of long lasting missions. PolarSys not only provides a state of the art infrastructure for Open Source projects, but also implements specific processes to improve projects maturity and to organize a sustainable ecosystem where industrial users and open source providers work together.
