Description

"The module is focused on the study of Free Software in relation to the private sector and related economic aspects. We analyse the software industry from an economic perspective: how it was affected by software published under free licenses and what is its potential for the future. On the other hand, we study how to use Free Software in the private sector, from a development point of view but also in implementation and migration."
