G52GRP Prizes 2013/14

The 7Digital and Esendex Prize for Software Quality

 

Esendex and 7digital are keen to promote principles and practices they know contribute to high-quality software, including SOLID principles, agile methods, and source-code control. To that end, this prize is awarded to the group that, in their opinion, have carried out their project in a way that best embodies such ideas. This award was judged by staff members from the two sponsoring companies, who assessed the quality of the submitted code and who visited the shortlisted projects on Group Project Open Day.

Prizes include: a copy of Robert C Martinʼs book ʽClean Codeʼ; a
Raspberry Pi model B computer; a pair of 7digital-approved AKG 451
head phones and an Esendex T-shirt

The School Group Project Prize for Best Project

This prize is provided by Head of School, Professor Uwe Aickelin, and is judged by the Group Project Awards Committee (GPAC) headed by Professor David Brailsford. Starting with nominations from group project supervisors, GPAC assessed all aspects of the submitted documentation and drew up a shortlist. The final decision took into account visits to the shortlisted projects on Group Project Open Day.
