Objective The BOOTSTRAP project is concerned with the technology transfer software management techniques, and aims to: - perform studies and experiments in the context of software management, software technology transfer and education in advanced industrial software engineering - raise awareness in higher and middle management in industry that software development and its management forms a technological and managerial discipline in its own right and of increasing strategic importance - conduct a focused study, the results of which will form a sound basis for subsequent R&D programmes on technology transfer.Technology transfer software management techniques have been addressed. Studies and experiments in the context of software management, software technology transfer and education in advanced industrial software engineering have been performed. Awareness in higher and middle management in industry that software development and its management forms a technological and managerial discipline in its own right and of increasing strategic importance has been raised. A study has been undertaken, the results of which form a sound basis for subsequent programmes on technology transfer. Informative material, including public relations communications, has been distributed, and presented at conferences and workshops.BOOTSTRAP aims to address a relevant large community in European industry through: - the wider distribution of informative material, including public relations communications - a phased approach over two years, starting with building a sound technical and managerial foundation, moving on to performing limited-scale experiments, and finally communicating the results to the wider community of users in Europe.
