What is the true value of source code?
07/14/2004 11:42 AMIn my last article here on ITMJ, I challenged traditional notions of
the importance of source code access in open source. Most point to
source code availability as the premier benefit open source delivers,
without offering any substantive reasons to support the claim. As I
noted, while open access to source code may matter for some, its
benefits pale in comparison to the benefits associated with open
source distribution. In summary, open source business models yield
dramatically lower sales, marketing, and product distribution costs,
enabling upstart competitors to undercut established vendors on price
while providing their customers Porsche technology at Pinto pricing.

Office Source Code
09/21/2004 01:11 AMI’ve been trying to think of something intelligent and new to say
about Microsoft’s recent
Office
source code maneuver, but Simon Phipps
took care of
it. Anyhow, when it comes to Office software, I’m less
interested in its code (source or object) which should be disposable
and replaceable, than I am in its output. Some call them “office
documents”; I prefer “intellectual heritage”, “racial
memory”, “crystallized thought”, “priceless treasure”, that
kind of thing. They need to be taken care of better than they are, I
think, and
others agree.

Title:
Intellectual Property, Open Source
and Free Softwarehttp://opensource.mi
t.edu/papers/vaden.pdfAbstract
The notion of
intellectual property is used in order to create digital commodities.
While the commodification of code is useful for certain kinds of
knowledge intesive work (the Taylorist forms), it severely disrupts
other types of knowledge creation. Applying Scott Lash's division of
knowledge creation into organisational and disorganisational types, we
also gain insight into the different positions towards IP held by
different wings of the FOSS community.

Title:
Capability Coordination in
Modular Organization: Voluntary FS/OSS Production and the Case of
Debian GNU/Linuxhttp:/
/opensource.mit.edu/papers/garzarelligaloppini.pdfAbstract:
The paper analyzes voluntary Free Software/Open
Source Software (FS/OSS) organization of work. The empirical setting
considered is the Debian GNU/Linux operating system. The paper finds
that the production process is hierarchical notwithstanding the
modular (nearly decomposable) architecture of software and of
voluntary FS/OSS organization. But voluntary FS/OSS project
organization is not hierarchical for the same reasons suggested by the
most familiar theories of economic organization: hierarchy is
justified for coordination of continuous change, rather than for the
direction of static production. Hierarchy is ultimately the overhead
attached to the benefits engendered by modular organization.
PAPER 3Author:
Modica,

Title:
Knowledge Transfer in R&D
Outsourcing (and Linux-Vs-Windows)http://opensource.m
it.edu/papers/modica.pdfAbstract:
Why did
Microsoft not hire all those smart programmers who ended up developing
Linux through the internet? Because, we answer, the value of the
information about its operating system that Microsoft should have
transferred to any of them to render her productive would have been
too high compared to her expected individual contribution, so that
after writing a contract with Microsoft the typical developer would
have run away to sell the acquired knowledge on the market. On the
other hand, knowledge transfer in R&D outsourcing is not always so
critical, and for example in the pharmaceutical and chemical
industries research contracts are extensively used, usually in the
context of a long term relationship between firm and innovator. We
analyze this kind of repeated interaction, and find that when the
knowledge-transfer problem is not blocking, the firm should transfer
to the innovator as much information as it is compatible with the
latter's incentive constraints.

e.mit.edu/papers/dafermos3.pdfAbstract:
Weblogs
have been recently characterised as the "open source media". And in
much the same way that open source software is been deployed, marketed
and sold within both commercial and non-commercial contexts, weblogs
can advance both commercial and non-commercial objectives. However, in
this primary - research paper, the focus is on the benefits that
organisations can seize by embracing weblogs, and how weblogs are
bound to revitalise marketplace and workplace conversations. In
addition, several case studies are being analysed, ranging from
Slashdot and Openflows to Amazon, Macromedia, Groove Networks, and
Gizmodo.

e.mit.edu/papers/mccormick.pdfAbstract:
This
dissertation involved in-depth interviews of over fifty open source
developers in two major open source projects. The primary areas of
interest were 1) conducting an ethnographic study of the work
practices and culture of 'post-burecratic' organizations to see what
lessons these groups may hold for managing intellectual labor and 2)
examining whether the open source movement represents a new
professional model for software engineering.

Title:
An Economic Theory of
Free and Open Source Software: A Tour from Lighthouse to Chinese-Style
Socialism (revised version)http://opensource.mi
t.edu/papers/chiao.pdfAbstract
The theory is that
free and open source software is private property under the guise of
common property. Such software is distributed mostly under the GNU
General Public License. The intents in The GNU Manifesto suggest
striking similarities between this license and communism. The
resulting economic properties, however, are similar to those of
Chinese-style socialism: both resulted from an increased separation of
legal and economic ownership. The phenomenal growth of China in the
last twenty five years and of such software in the past few years
could be attributed to such separation.

Title:
Open Source as a Complex Adaptive System - Published in
Emergence 5 (3)http://www.emergence.org/Abstract:
The Open Source community and its
activities can be considered to have the characteristics of a system.
The Open Source system is distinctive because it is neither controlled
by a central authority that defines strategy and organization nor
totally chaotic. It can be placed at a middle position between a
planned system and a chaotic one. In this sort of position there are
non-formal rules which allow the system to produce significant
results. The Complex Adaptive System theory can be used to better
understand and analyze the Open Source system. This work presents a
description of the main characteristics of the functioning of the Open
Source community regarding its organizational structure and
development process. The concept of complex adaptive system is then
introduced and its functioning mechanisms briefly described. Finally,
we will interpret the characteristics of the Open Source community in
the context of complex adaptive systems theory.
