Improving the way space software is created, tested and maintained

Our missions are becoming increasingly more complex - and this is reflected in the software that drives them. The amount of code in the mission components, and the corresponding interactions that take place between them require software that is performant, scalable and maintainable.

The old ways of doing things are therefore rapidly reaching their limits.

To address this, TEC-SWT is constantly investigating tools and technologies that can improve the situation - and creates fully operational prototypes of tools that have significant positive impacts on the speed and correctness of the development workflows followed by our missions.

The menu bar on the right contains more information about the kind of research that is taking place in TEC-SWT.
