A Case Study in the Reuse of On-board Embedded Real-Time Software
No full textThe rise of the ‘cheaper, faster, better’ mission paradigm increasingly challenges the industrial development of satellite systems. The novel paradigm will have a profound impact on the production of the real-time software embedded on board new-generation systems. This paper discusses how software reuse may fit in the rising development scenario and how reuse interacts with other important players in the picture, especially the software process model and the on-board software architecture
Informatics Education for School: A European Initiative
No full textIn the age of the digital revolution, informatics must be developed as a fundamental discipline in school. But what steps can be taken to support the advancement of informatics education at school level across Europe, especially when responsibility for education is devolved to each individual country (and sometimes to regions within countries)? To provide a coherent vision and shared terminology, we have recently proposed an informatics reference framework for school. This article provides some background and an overview of the framewor

European Digital Transformation Needs Indicators of Informatics Competence
No full textIn today’s world it is crucial that individuals, regardless of their position or daily activities, be digitally skilled. Digital skills sit at the application level, where people must be able to operate, through technological devices and systems, with applications. This happens in a variety of sectors: It could be argued that in today’s world, digital applications are utilized in some capacity across all areas of services, production, and communication.
However, it is important to remember that all these artefacts are driven by the scientific discipline of informatics. That is why concepts like data, algorithms, computing machines, programming, communication and coordination have to be part of the standard school education, much like those of force, energy, cell, organism, molecule, etc. are. The practical side, that is the equivalent of the laboratory for traditional sciences, has also to be part of this education. Moreover, digital technology is affecting human society, and it is therefore necessary that all students are aware of the implications that technology, developed on the basis of Informatics principles, can have on human beings and their relations
