We combine current research topics with economic relevance. We work for industry, service companies and public institutions. In addition, we are partners in numerous publicly funded research projects, for example funded by the European Commission or the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research. The marketing of the resulting (software) solutions is part of our work.
