SPECIAL SUBJECTS:

QUALITY, MODELLING

The motivation for the project is competence development in a field with increasing importance and in rapid change. Quality, modelling and simulation are connected to various processes. A further development of quality management, modelling and dynamic simulation depends on active observation and formative evaluation that are in a fast development, too. The development in this area has taken advantage of the fast development of ICT. The present project opens the possibility for a greater collaborative project between Statoil and NTNU, and other companies may be included.
