Introduction
In the third drawer on the right side of the exhibition area are, the Software application development and implementation guidelines. This is a set of guidelines adopted by ITRI in the early 1990s based on the basic principles of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). It provides a common set of procedures for the development of chip, hardware, software, and system products. These guidelines help personnel to record the development process, allowing everyone to participate and share. The Guidelines helped ITRI become the first research organization in Taiwan to be certified by ISO 9001. As thousands of ITRI alumni have been hired by companies in the science park over the years, they have also introduced ITRI's systems and practices, which have had a significant impact on many technology companies in the Hsinchu Science Park.
