Study into the use of Open Source Software in the Public Sector - June 2001
The 'Study into the use of open source software in the public sector' was conducted by Unisys Belgium following a call for tender issued in the frame of the IDA Programme. This study entails three components:
The OSS fact sheet gives an overview of the situation in the spring of 2001 and an assessment of availability and potential use of OSS based solutions, by software category, as well as a selection of about 100 typical OSS solutions;
The second part of the Study focuses on OSS usage and experience made in six European countries (Belgium, France, Spain, Germany, Italy, Sweden) and in the European Union administration;
The third part gives an overview of the OSS market structure, with opportunities and issues related to the use of OSS solutions.
