| <p> |
| <b>1. Lessons Learned by Building Ecosystems Modeled on Eclipse</b> – |
| Tony Bailetti, Carleton University |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| <b>Abstract:</b> The talk describes the key lessons learned from (i) designing the Coral CEA and Lead to |
| Win ecosystems and (ii) using the maturity model for company engagement with ecosystems anchored |
| around open source projects. The objective of the Coral CEA ecosystem is to enable programmers to |
| easily embed communications-related web services into IT applications and commercialize innovative |
| applications globally. |
| <br><br> |
| The worldwide market for communications enabled applications in 2010 is |
| expected to be in the $1.6-$3.3 billion range. It has high potential for sustainable growth over |
| the long term. The Lead to Win ecosystem is designed to create jobs and retain talent in a |
| geographical region. The maturity model identifies the different ways a company can interact with |
| an ecosystem. The talk is most relevant to senior managers interested in benefitting from their |
| companies' interactions with open source projects. |
