Abstract : The Air Force acquisition community tasked the Software Engineering Institute (SEI) to create a reference document that would provide the Air Force with a better understanding of software technologies. This knowledge will allow the Air Force to systematically plan the research and development (RD it did, however, provide guidance in seeking out requirements and technologies. It served as a reminder that this work is concerned with complex, large scale, distributed, real time, software intensive, embedded systems in which reliability, availability, safety, security, performance, maintainability, and cost are major concerns.
