Benefit: Lero’s Mike Hinchey
Lero, the Irish software engineering research centre, has secured funding of €627,672 for its contribution to the Fastfix project.
The funding was made under the EU Framework 7 programme, in which Lero partners with University of Limerick and UCD.
The Fastfix project’s goal is to provide software developers with a maintenance environment that combines time-efficiency with low cost and high precision.
Lero researchers at UL and UCD will work on the Fastfix project, which has overall funding of EUR*3.48 million. Lero will contribute mainly in the area of “autonomic software.” In particular it will provide support for remote diagnosis and repair.
FastFix will develop a platform and a set of tools that will continuously monitor customer environments while collecting information on application execution and user interaction. The objective is to identify symptoms of execution errors, performance degradation, or changes in user behaviour.
Lero director Prof Mike Hinchey comments: “We are partners in a very important project for software developers, who will benefit enormously from its outcome.”
