Japan's Critical Infrastructure - Open Source Evolution in Software Development

Explore the evolution of open source in Japan's critical infrastructure through this keynote address. Delve into the increasing adoption of open source components in modern applications, including safety-critical systems like automotive and medical fields. Examine the emerging best practices for security concerns, such as the use of software bill of materials (SBOMs) for increased transparency. Gain insights into projects preparing for Japan's future critical infrastructure software needs. Learn about trends in open source adoption, cybersecurity awareness in critical infrastructure, and standards for safety-critical systems. Discover the importance of knowing precisely what software is integrated, sharing component information efficiently, and understanding how software is built. Investigate Linux Foundation projects working on improving build clarity, civil infrastructure activities, and efforts to enhance the dependability of Linux for safety-critical systems. Understand the challenges of implementing Linux in safety-critical environments and the importance of establishing reference systems and educating open source developers.
