For 16 years the Jolt Awards have been presented each year to products, books, and websites that have "Jolted" the industry by helping create faster, easier, and more efficient software and that make a difference to the user base.

"This year there were tremendous innovations and a record number of companies that entered the Jolt Awards," said Rosalyn Lum, technical editor, Dr. Dobb's Journal. "The judges saw many great technologies across the board and pored over each entry to find those who had made the most compelling impact on software development. The blue ribbon panel cited Corticon as being a mover and shaker with their business rules and modeling software suite."

"We are thrilled that we received recognition and honor with the prestigious Jolt! Award. It's gratifying to see that the software industry is beginning to recognize the impact that business rules and modeling has on the enterprise," said Mark Allen, President and CEO, Corticon Technologies. "Corticon has focused on decreasing the time and cost of building automated decision through business rules.
