AQCLab is collaborating in the organisation of the international meeting of the ISO/IEC JTC1/SC7 WG6 working group,made up of software quality experts from more than 20 countries.
The meeting, sponsored by the Alarcos Group and UNE, is taking place at the Escuela Superior de Informática in Ciudad Real in both in-person and hybrid mode between the 23rd and 27th of October, with more than 50 attendees between the two modes.
For AQCLab it is a pleasure as an accredited laboratory in the evaluation of software and data quality to be able to host this meeting with international experts who are working on the development and evolution of the ISO/IEC 25000 family of standards.
AQCLab has renewed its ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation for software and data quality assevaluations based on the ISO/IEC 25000 series of standards. AQCLab remains the first and only laboratory accredited for this type of evaluations.
ENAC/ILAC accreditation provides confidence both in the competence of the laboratory and its staff to deliver reliable results, and in its ability to provide a service appropriate to the needs of its clients. To obtain and maintain accreditation, the Spanish accreditation body ENAC carries out audits to check that the laboratory has the technical competence through the availability of qualified personnel, adequate equipment, appropriate working methods and quality criteria for the management of its activity.
For companies, trusting in a laboratory that ensures maximum technical competence is essential to guarantee the reliability of their products, minimise risks and increase the confidence of their customers as well as the acceptance of their products in other markets.
Based on the results of the assessments performed by AQCLab, our clients can obtain a quality certification in accordance with ISO/IEC 25000. If your company is interested in assessing the quality of your software products or data, please contact us via the following link.
Mario Piattini, scientific director of AQCLab, has been awarded an Honorary Doctorate by the Universidad Nacional de La Plata (UNLP). The distinction was presented by the president of the UNLP Martín López Armengol, together with the dean of the Faculty of Informatics, Marcelo Naiouf. The ceremony took place within the framework of the XI Jornadas de Cloud Computing, Big Data & Emerging Topics (JCC-BD&ET) organised by the Faculty of Informatics.
López Armengol highlighted the recognition of Mario as an entrepreneurial professional with a great trajectory in the academic and scientific field and in his work in technology transfer, with important contributions to spin offs that are committed to social innovation from technology-based companies.
Mario stressed that "it is an honour to receive this recognition from the UNLP" and that "it is a boost to continue working in the field of information systems, seeking to improve their quality and sustainability to ultimately improve the quality of people and society".
AQCLab and IMQ Ibérica have reached an agreement to promote and improve the quality of software and data with ISO/IEC 25000.
To this end, AQCLab, as the first and only laboratory accredited internationally by ENAC/ILAC, will carry out software quality and/or data quality evaluations. Subsequently, IMQ Ibérica, as an international certification body, will be responsible for auditing the companies that wish to certify their products and, based on the laboratory's report, issue a certificate for the quality of the software product and/or data.
Thanks to this agreement, IMQ Ibérica and AQCLab will collaborate to provide service to practically all sectors where software and data quality are of vital importance for their business today.
Yesterday, 18 May, our colleague Javier Verdugo defended his PhD thesis entitled "Cyberdata: evaluación y certificación de la cibersguridad de los datos" (Cyberdata: assessment and certification of data cybersecurity).
This thesis, directed by Moisés Rodríguez and Mario Piattini, director and scientific director of AQCLab respectively, proposes an environment for the assessment and certification of cybersecurity specifically focused on data, adapting the international standards ISO/IEC 25012, ISO/IEC 25024 and ISO/IEC 25040.
Our thanks also go to the members of the doctoral thesis tribunal, Javier Garzás from Universidad Rey Juan Carlos, Marian Moraga from UCLM and José David Patón from SimulaMet (Norway).
