Michael Tiemann, vice president of Open Source Affairs at Red Hat, will be presenting his synthesis of open source principles with the teachings of Deming, Darwin, and the US Department of Defense so that information technology initiatives can improve rather than impair organizational capabilities. The presentation will take place August 19, 2010 at the School of Finance and Administration, Brazil. Tiemann has developed a specific theory as to how and why open source software can achieve higher quality than traditional proprietary software, and from this basis of quality, can achieve many other benefits as well: greater rates of innovation, interoperability, security, and lower rates of application and investment abandonment.
