All topics listed here are available for both PhD studies and undergraduate thesis. We are working with government, defense and standardization bodies on a variety of projects in the area of model driven development, business process modelling, service engineering, web mashup and software development processes. All available topics are not limited to the following list. Contact me for further information. Depending on the topic, they will also be supervised by Prof. Ross Jeffery .
