Expertise for outstanding software quality
The Center for Code Excellence (CCE) acts as a central point of contact for small and medium-sized companies when it comes to the analysis, development and implementation of modern methods, techniques and processes in software development. With our expertise in the areas of software engineering intelligence, software engineering management and software engineering for machine learning, we want to enable companies to develop outstanding, sustainable and future-oriented software and thus achieve code excellence.
To build customer trust and gain a competitive advantage, flawless software products and services are crucial. The Center for Code Excellence's (CCE) field-proven research activities in software engineering intelligence aim to strengthen quality assurance, develop thorough test procedures and support effective maintenance strategies.
In an environment where even minor software errors can lead to significant business disadvantages, this research focus equips small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with the necessary tools and knowledge to ensure the optimal performance, reliability and resilience of their software.
Our research activities in the area of software engineering focus on methods such as Agile and DevOps, which respond quickly to changes and user feedback. This leads to optimized software development processes, promotes collaboration between departments and enables timely and high-quality updates. Continuous development in particular enables flexible and responsive behavior to market changes, thus cementing the longevity of the software
Machine learning (ML) is increasingly becoming an integral part of many enterprise solutions. ML project management differs significantly from traditional software development however. With CCE's empirical research on software engineering for machine learning, we help companies introduce best practices in the field of MLOps.
With this approach we ensure the creation of highly accurate ML models that can be easily integrated into existing software systems. Version control for code and data enables iterative improvements without losing sight of the changes that were made. At the same time, continuous deployment makes sure that updates to the models occur promptly. An effectively managed machine learning development process enables faster and better integrated development.
For all those who want to know which software topics are currently hot, CCE Trends offer an overview to identify new technologies, obtain an independent, quantitative evaluation over time and obtain further information on similar technologies and toolchains.
