That's a good question, and we need to compile the answers in a nice
page under maemo.org

We haven't got a compilation, but never it's too late to start:

Erkko Anttila, currently working with us, did his PhD on "Open Source
Software and Impact on Competitiveness: Case Study" -
http://project.hkkk.fi/gebsi/files/nav_activities/material/Thesis_Final.pdf  The Internet Tablet OS is analized.


- http://ossi.coss.fi/ossi/ is doing research that includes maemo

Something to start with is
http://ossi.coss.fi/ossi/fileadmin/user_upload/Publications/j_rvensivu_-_kosola_-_kuusipalo_-_reijula_-_mikkonen_-2006.pdf - there are references at the end.


Another pointer is Timo Aaltonen and his team, they are working on
Business Readiness Rating for open source projects and maemo is one of
the cases being analized. 

A short description of BRR can be found at
http://www.openbrr.org/wiki/images/6/6e/BRRflyer4a.pdf
an a longer one at
http://www.openbrr.org/wiki/images/d/da/BRR_whitepaper_2005RFC1.pdf



And Matthias Stuermer and his team at http://www.smi.ethz.ch/ are also
working on something although I'm not sure if they have published
anything yet.


If you are doing related research or you know who is doing it please
share the information. 

Also, for those of you interested Nokia has programs to help & support
research, and we are working on having specific support for maemo
research in place as well. I'm not the person on top of this but if you
have any requests I should be able to help forwarding them.
