  • Beschreibung: <jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>Latest developments in economy and industry have shed light on the growing importance of flexible and practice‐oriented skills of industrial employees. Much improvement can be achieved by adapting the current practices of education accordingly, for example, by emphasizing hands‐on experience and preparing learners (both students and employees in extended training) for independent life‐long learning strategies. The paper highlights the importance of open‐source software in this context. After giving an overview of R&amp;D projects delivering open‐source solutions and existing open‐source communities, the example of the TraSer project (an open‐source solution platform for track‐and‐trace applications) is closely examined, with special emphasis on its potential role in education at universities and industrial companies. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
