Almost everyone can agree that 25 years ago IBM started a revolution. The PC platform, created and standardized by IBM, has a flexibility that is unique in the technical world. The microprocessor, a device invented only 10 years prior to the PC by Intel, provided a standard that was flexible by design. The same hardware architecture, built around few simple elements, like memory, Arithmetic Logic Unit, electronic bus, allowed a program to be developed and run on the same machine, and with the same architecture. Countless software applications are taking advantage of this. Before the PC and the microprocessor, each function was implemented hardwired to the architecture. As a result of this revolution, someone can talk about pre- and post-PC era.

In today's enterprise architecture, the same pre-PC chaotic era situation exists. Each enterprise function is hardwired by a myriad of applications, each one implemented for a given business model, industry vertical, and even size. Huge efforts, driven by either high consulting fees, or short term agenda, make this hundreds of billions of dollars one of the most inefficient and costly endeavor. XCLSoft, through xclsoft.org, is hoping to change all this, and move from chaos to a clearly driven effort, one in which reusability and open plays a key role. The goal for the Dynamically Stable Enterprise Framework is to act as a catalyst for a new type of infrastructure, one that will have the same fundamental feature as the initial microprocessor-centric designed PC. That feature is the standardization of an enterprise infrastructure, one that uses flexibility-by-design.  that the new architecture, capable to support any type of business, regardless of size or vertical, to start the same type of revolution in the business. The solution is based on the integration of operations, change, and technology, one that will make any enterprise efficient and continuously adaptive. Obviously, the design of such an infrastructure has far more elements that the microprocessor, but similar to its architecture, if done correctly, it can be scalable in the future. A simple calculus shows that the number of lines the code required to be written to implement such an infrastructure is in hundreds of billions! Not only is very difficult for a single company to ever even attempt to write alone such an application, but we believe that being open encourage everyone to join the quest for a unique, standardized architecture, one that can be free of patents, or proprietary components. By everyone contributing to its foundations, the effort can go towards building depth instead of width. Please join our efforts to make this a reality!   (30 line per day...)
