What does dealing with a partly open system mean in terms of additional activities or achieving open benefits?
Using a partly open component generally means that the system is using a component’s nonstandard features or that it is using a component that has been locally modified to meet some performance need. Using such extensions of a standard component requires that additional documentation and guidance be generated to manage and limit the usage of the non-standard features to a minimum. For example, in the case of using an operating system with extensions, use of non-standard features may make applications that use these features difficult to port to different platforms (operating systems/board sets) that do not support these features. Consequently, the costs associated with maintaining the system will rise to cover the additional costs associated with porting code. The documentation associated with the open standards interfaces being maintained is critical to achieving open benefits. If undocumented use of non-standard features takes place, then porting, integration, testing, and other task
