Software Systems Research Projects
VIDE (Visual Model Drive Programming) is funded by the European Commission to a total of €2,298,436, with €236,675 for the Centre. The objective is to create novel tools to support model driven development and to provide an end-to-end development process supported by visual modelling notations.
The Centre leads the development of tool support at the Computational Independent Model (CIM) level. This involves the development of novel notations and processes that allow analysts and developers to move from informal business information through various modelling processes and model transformations to Platform Independent Model (PIM) level models, expressed in the Unified Modelling Language (UML). Critically, our tools aim to improve accessibility for non-IT stakeholders.
Past projects
MDS (Misuse Detection System) is funded by the European Commission to a total of €1,334,776, with €282,965 for the Centre. The objective is to research, develop and evaluate a system for the detection and prediction of misuse in telecommunication networks.
The Centre leads the development of novel techniques for fraud detection and business process support, combining our expertise in software systems with novel computational approaches combining artificial neural networks, genetic algorithms, particle swarm optimisation, and k-means clustering.
