Development of a software package for predicting microbial shelf life in packaged, cooked meats: a tool for innovation and product development in the meat sector Ghent University
This project aims to give an insight into the specific problems of decay cooked meats and the extent to which various intrinsic and extrinsic factors influence the shelf life. Attention will be focused on the one hand the real lag phase of spoilage organisms in industrial products and on the decay phenomena that occur in Industrial local, cooked meats under realistic storage conditions. The ultimate goal is a validated model of growth of ...
Development of a software package for predicting microbial preservability in prepacked cooked meat products: a tool for innovation and product development in the meat sector. KU Leuven
Understand the specific spoilage problems of cooked meats and to the extent that different intrinsic factors influence this preservability.
Secure Software Development KU Leuven
Computer security is an arms race. In 2019 alone, 12.174 vulnerabilities were registered in the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposure (CVE) database. In the past five years, the number of discovered vulnerabilities increased sharply compared to the previous decade. Considering the premise that the software vulnerability originates from the development process, we need to incorporate the software developers’ human factor in the threat modeling ...

From Strategic to Operational Agility: Exploring the Conceptual Anchoring of Elements Leading to Reactive and Flexible Software Development KU Leuven
The practice of developing software has been continuously evolving for the past 20 years. Taking the decision, at governance-level, to develop a large software system according to predefined and hardly vacillating specifications is not to be considered as a mainstream practice anymore. Nowadays, most software packages are being released following short and iterative development cycles when sources of value have been hitherto identified at ...
Innovating the software development process in the GDPR era. KU Leuven
This project supports innovation of the software development process in compliance with the new privacy regulations.The project targets increasing the competitivity of software developers, integrators and consultants that focus on applications in which personal data collection and processing is required.First, the juridical aspects around GDPR and ePR are tailored to SME software developers.Second, software methodologies and building blocks ...
Migration to agile embedded software development which recovers after errors due to external factors. KU Leuven
Privacy engineering methods for software development KU Leuven
To enhance the security and privacy maturity of software systems, an increasing security and privacy effort is being spent in the early phases of software development. This ongoing paradigm shift (security-by-design and privacy-by-design) demands for novel privacy engineering techniques to underpin the software engineering activities, such privacy threat modeling, architectural privacy analysis and privace-aware design patterns. In this ...
Software development for gene-trait discovery and prioritization in agricultural biotechnology using single-cell genomics Ghent University
The rapid adoption of single-cell profiling methods, such as single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq), in life sciences confirms it is revolutionizing the details of gene expression profiling from a tissue to a cell. While singe-cell profiling is booming in the medical field, technology optimization focusing on plant cells is ongoing. In the UGent/VIB Department of Plant Biotechnology and Bioinformatics, a single-cell platform was established ...
