Research focus areas

Teaser Software- und Systems Engineering

Software & Systems Engineering

Until now, software and systems engineering has focused on ensuring the reliability and security of relatively small, centralised and automated systems that operate in predictable environments. However, current and future requirements are increasingly shifting towards ensuring the trustworthiness of larger, dynamically networked, self-learning and constantly evolving, often autonomously acting systems. In the Software & Systems Engineering research focus area, fortiss is expanding the classic methods of model-based software and system development and integrating them with new development methods for data-driven applications.

Teaser AI Engineering

AI Engineering


The AI Engineering research area focuses on researching and developing a new generation of robust, trustworthy AI technologies that can make timely, safe decisions in uncertain and unpredictable environments. Our goal is to increase the trustworthiness and explainability of AI systems and ensure they are resilient to erroneous inputs and targeted attacks. The focus here is on processing large volumes of data as well as gaining knowledge from small amounts of data without jeopardising confidentiality and privacy.
