Any time anyone in the community wants to talk to me about successes or impediments, I am here and welcome that. We want to be a part of the community and want them to know what we are doing. The core of our work is doing software verification and validation. We attempt independently to review software systems for correctness. We make certain the software can be maintained cost effectively and that the delivered product is what the customer has asked for.
Verification is the test of correctness and validation is the test of rightness.
Any organization needs to have a strategic plan. Without it, one is a ship without a rudder. This is why I have hired the WVU business school and engineering department to help us complete a strategic plan coupled with communication and marketing plans. We anticipate having these in place by the end of this month. We want to share the knowledge and skills that we develop here so our business partners and collaborators will be more effective in delivering software on time and at cost.
