RENOIR Activity Report
Title: Collaborative Research Visit to Essen
Location: University of Essen
Dates: 24th to 31st October 1998
Name: Stephen Armitage (steve.armitage@oxford.qss.co.uk)
Stephen Armitage is a Teaching Company Associate, working on a method of managing project compliance to standards. This project is a collaborative research effort between Quality Systems & Software (QSS) and University College, London (UCL) and is funded by the Teaching Company Directorate.
The primary aim of the visit was to present the work done in the area of managing compliance to standards and demonstrate the Compliance Manager prototype tool which has been developed in DOORS. The secondary aim of the visit was to discuss further work required on the prototype tool and the possibility of a collaborative effort between the University of Essen, UCL and QSS.
The majority of the visit was spent with Alexander Schomberg, discussing the application, architecture and design of the current prototype system. I met a number of times with Prof. Michael Geodike to discuss the area of work we have been investigating and the scope of work that is outstanding.
Benefits of the Visit.
