Profile/competences

Core competencies

Research

The research groups of the technology division focus on methods for collecting, administrating and analysing data as well as on constructing and embedding networked information systems in business processes. In the scope of new technology projects, prototypical solutions for sophisticated applications are developed on the basis of new algorithms and methods.

The aim of these technology projects is the validation and optimization of these algorithms and methods so that companies can use them for real applications. For this purpose, the technology division cooperates with research institutes and thus ensures that regional companies can access the results of international research and development in the field of information systems.
