Usine Logicielle

Project « Usine Logicielle »

Today, 15 to 40% of the value of high technology products (from cell phones to satellites and cars) is provided through software. Customers are asking for more services, more features and reliability, and all of these requirements make these products more complex to build while there is an increasing pressure for lower price.

In the context of an increasing international competition, it is therefore essential to master the most productive software engineering techniques in order to stay in the competition. 

Within the SYSTEM@TIC PARIS-REGION Cluster, the "Usine Logicielle" project promotes model based software engineering which allows standardizing and automating the design, the integration, the validation and the maintenance of the software embedded in these high technology products.

The solution proposed by "Usine Logicielle" will materialize in new tools, new organizational structures, new jobs and new trainings that will allow a productivity increase, quicker time to market, higher competitivity and better attractivity of the french Ile de France region.

Driven by their will and the shared necessity to end up, the project's partners will create the software dimension of the "Model Valley", a center of economic growth grouping all the actors (companies, research centers, high schools, government organizations and individuals) around model based engineering.
