The Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) is
the largest of the seven UK Research Councils. It funds research
and postgraduate training in universities and other organisations
throughout the UK.
SEBPC is a managed research programme within the Systems Engineering
Sub-Programme of the IT&CS Programme of the Engineering and
Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC).
SEBPC's objective is: to release the full potential of IT as an
enabler of business process change, and to overcome the disabling
effects which the build-up of legacy systems has on such change.

The European Software Institute is an
international team focusing on the improvement, the
dissemination and the usage of processes for
software system intensive development, procurement,
quality and maintenance. ESI is a non-profit,
industry-led, membership-based organisation
supported by the European Commission.
Their website presents the institute, the services
and products that it offers, technology areas,
information repositories as well as information on
models and tools. The research focus of the
institute is on software reuse, process
improvement, the dissimination of best practice,
systems engineering and measurement. This large
site is well worth a visit for any software
practitioner or researcher.

This initiative provides its users with access
to historical data on the DoD Software Reuse
Intiative (SRI). The site offers extensive
information and resources on software
reuse. It has an executive primer on reuse,
reuse case studies and lessons learned, educational
and training materials, documents, source code,
etc. It also offers reuse news and links to further
information. If you are interest in software reuse
this is a good starting point.

The Reengineering Forum is an industry
association that seeks to encourage a combined
industry/research review of the state of the art
and the state of the practice in the reengineering
of software, systems, and business processes. It is
a meeting place for key people in the reengineering
and reverse engineering fields: developers,
researchers, and leading-edge users.
The site maintains a list of current events and
reengineering news.

The Software Technology Resource Center's
mission is to provide hands-on assistance in
adopting effective technologies for
software-intensive systems. The focus of the center
is on US DoD systems.
The center offers a number of free resources
including the CrossTalk journal dedicated
to practical software engineering technologies,
practices, and field technologies. The center also
organises the Software Technology Conference (STC),
a yearly forum in Salt Lake City.
Amongst other things the center has a page
dedicated to software reengineering.
