Abstract

Open source software and proprietary software are in a coexisting and competitive relationship in today's software market. Through the comparison of the asymmetric structure of the two types of software, this paper analyzed their competitive relationship in market entry order, product price asymmetry, product quality difference and so on. The results show that the development of open source software has a profound impact on the development of the traditional software industry, and has important practical significance to the software industry organization structure adjustment and the establishment of effective software development policy.
