Abstract

The new open world requires new approaches for IT development, and in particular for open standards. In the old world an average development time of 36 months (for European standards) is current practice, but not aligned with current and future needs. This chapter introduces a pressure cooker approach in which openness plays a crucial role in the development leading to an open standards with positive effects on adoption. Several case studies show that the average development time is reduced to an average of 25 weeks, that the approach is still improvable, and that users of the developed standards are to a certain extend satisfied with the quality of the standard. The pressure cooker concept fits within the development and management model of open standards (BOMOS) mainly for dealing with the operational development steps.
