Abstract :
A new class of software systems, the class of Mega-Systems, is discussed. The class of Mega-Systems includes the categories of Huge Systems, Package Systems, Systems of Systems and Generic Systems. The attributes and the characteristics of Mega-Systems are identified and related to traditional systems. Based on the discussion of these attributes, a new approach for the development of Mega-Systems is proposed. An adaptation of the GenSIF framework is suggested as a general model for the development of all categories of Mega-Systems
