SQuaD - Software Quality and Digital Modernisation

The research within SQuaD - Software Quality and Digital Modernisation, is focused on different software engineering aspects.

The research of SQuaD aims at developing methods and techniques to continuously preserve, improve, and adapt quality attributes of long-living software systems in order to allow such systems to be maintained and to evolve more easily.

Current focus areas are:

• Detection of and mitigation against software architecture degradation and other forms of technical debt
• Design and evolution of security- and privacy-critical systems
• Quality assurance techniques, such as testing, for long-living systems

Special emphasize is put on the empirical evaluation of methods and techniques often performed in collaboration with industrial partners.

Collaboration and projects for tomorrow’s technology and society
Research within Computer Science is based on a project and collaborative culture. Through interdisciplinary research between the three research areas as well as joint projects with external partners from both academia and industry we contributes towards tomorrow’s technology and society.
