Volgende stappen
• Brainstorm gehouden: 81 APP-ideeën
• Uitgangspunten voor APPs gedefinieerd
29TU Delft goes Mobile
Uitgangspunten geformuleerd
• als de app al bestaat, maken wij hem niet• eigen apps zijn gratis voor iedereen; gekochte apps zijn gratis
voor TU Delft medewerkers/studenten• de app is cultuurneutraal • de app draagt bij aan de doelstellingen van de TU Delft • de app komt beschikbaar voor diverse platformen (liefst
platformonafhankelijk)• TU Delft approved apps worden ondersteund• er is een app redactie, apps worden gemonitord en er is een
feedback loop • de inhoud van de app is actueel, correct en legaal (DRM vrij)• de privacy regels van de TU Delft zijn leidend (Wet
Bescherming Persoonsgegevens)

Toekomst …
In de toekomst maken studenten zelf applicaties voor mobiele devices die voorzien in hun behoeften. Dit betekent dat de TU Delft publieke services moet aanbieden die, gebaseerd op open standaarden, basis informatie leveren voor deze ‘apps’.
