22. The Process
What we did…
• License check of each component for internal harmony
• Get commitment from component owners on post-project
maintenance & support
• Test the toolkit (~200 test cases)
• Create a product website
• Upload the code to Github
(open source repository)
• Create mailing list for support
24. Other Joint Activities
• Exploring Partnership Opportunities
o Flexiant and Arsys are interested in adopting the VM
contextualizer
o Leeds exploring possible partnership with Flexiant and Arsys to
commercialize the VM contextualizer
o Leeds would retain IP rights
• UK IT Industry Awards
• Category: Infrastructure Innovation of the Year
28. Individual Exploitation Highlights
• Significant outreach: 200,000 people to-date; impact
expected on hundreds of thousands; 2 books
• Spin-off company: Elastisys, AB - outstanding interest by
market leaders, beta version released
• IDE published and well ranked @ Eclipse marketplace
• Adoption/interest by several external organizations (HAWC
Int., IAA-CSIC, INB, Cybula)
• Adoption in products of project members
(Arsys, ATOS, SAP, BT, Flexiant)
• OPTIMIS programming model for Android development
environment to be adopted
• Influence data protection policy of the EU Commission
• Standard curricula in academia
Remember the article we included in the proposal?The concept was visionary 4 years agoThe emerging digital infrastructure – schedule and automate venues to most appropriate venues, be it internal or external – a truly hybrid worldPerfect timing, right where the market is heading
