Software Productivity Trends and Issues within the Defense Industrial Base

The Department of Defense is experiencing an explosive increase in its demand for software-implemented features in weapon systems. The combination of exponential increases in computing power and similar advances in memory density and speed has made software-mediated implementation of system features increasingly attractive. In the meantime, defense software productivity and industrial base capacity have not been growing as quickly. Do we have an impending bottleneck? If so, what are the management implications?Find out with Dr. Arun Seraphin and Dr. David Tate, Senior Analyst in the Cost Analysis Research Division of the Institute for Defense Analyses.
