Software Engineering at Durham University (SE@Durham)
Welcome to the Software Engineering (SE) research team at AIHS at Durham. Our leading-edge research in SE focuses on SE for AI-based systems, Self-adaptive and Autonomous systems, decision-making under uncertainty, model-driven engineering (MDE), requirements engineering (RE) and Evidence-Based Software Engineering.
Research Highlights
ALTS: AI-enabled Legal Technologies and their Consequences on Society
PI Nelly Bencomo
The ALTS project aims to bring together experts in Law, AI-enabled legal technologies, Computer Science, Design Thinking and others to create an interdisciplinary collaboration to provide a platform for exploring and testing a range of approaches for assessing the impact of AI in the law. The project seeks to enable conversations about delivering human-centred techniques and tools to help stakeholders explore the horizons of possibilities and define an envelope of acceptability for AI-based software responsibility focusing on legal aspects. A series of activities are planned to include two IAS seminars, creating a consortium for an ambitious interdisciplinary project, and designing an inter-department teaching module on AI-enabled legal technologies.
The project is partially supported by the Institute of Advance Studies and the EPSRC project Twenty2020Insight
