markets on the basis of initial investment in worthy projects by NITRD agencies. Under the auspices of professional societies, similar studies were published relating specifically to software engineering research.21 These reinforce the extent of the impact of well-managed investments.
Recommendation 5-2: The DOD should take action to undertake DoD-sponsored research programsin the following areas identified as critical to the advancement of defense software producibility:(1) architecture modeling and architectural analysis; (2) assurance: validation, verification, analysis of design and code; (3) process support and economic models for assurance and adaptability;(4) requirements; (5) language, modeling, coding, and tools; (6) cyber-physical systems; and (7) human-systems integration.
