The problem with CALS: barriers to the development of product data exchange and the US continuous acquisition and life-cycle support programme
Article Abstract:
The continuous acquisition and life-cycle support (CALS) program has not lived up to the expectations of advocates where data exchange developments occur slowly. However, the US CALS program is still predicted to play a significant role in establishing product data exchange standards. Such standards will encompass an organization's data exchange and internal data-handling methods. The CALS program aims to make a company's internal working practices and inter-organizational relationships conform with standards.

Breakthrough in software design productivity through the use of declarative programming
Article Abstract:
Declarative programming has led to the creation of a highly innovative software design that is more efficient and productive than existing ones. Erlang is a computer programming language that can be easily used in various software architectures. Compared to other software desings, it reduces the application of work by a factor between 9 to 25 for various parts of computer system.
