Corticon Technologies Wins Prestigious Jolt Award for Product Excellence
Corticon Technologies "jolted" the Design and Modeling Tools market by winning a Product Excellence award in the 18th Annual software Development Jolt Awards. Corticon won the award for Corticon Business Rules Modeling Studio, its popular desktop tool used to model business rules and to transform those rules into executable decision services.
Redwood City, CA (PRWEB), March 31, 2008 -- Corticon® Technologies, the leader in model-driven Business Rules Management software, announced today that Corticon Business Rules Modeling Studio has been recognized as a Product Excellence Award winner at the 18th Annual Software Development Jolt Awards, sponsored by Dr. Dobbs Journal and CMP.
Dr. Dobb's Jolt Product Excellence Awards have been described by software legend Chad Fowler as "the Oscars of our industry". Each year winners are selected by a panel of judges consisting of industry insiders, columnists, and technology leaders. Jolt judges honor universally useful products that are both easy to use and full-featured, products that redefine their product space or solve a persistent problem that has consistently eluded other products.
"We are honored to have Corticon Business Rules Modeling Studio selected by the judges as a 2008 Jolt Award winner, especially given the quality of the other products that were in the running," commented Pedram Abrari, Corticon's CTO and co-founder. "Corticon Studio is one of several products included in Corticon's Business Rules Management System, but it also stands alone as the cornerstone of our model-driven design philosophy…a fact that makes this Jolt Excellence Award even more satisfying."
Business rules govern decision-making tasks, such as how to score credit risk, calculate premiums, or reconcile financial transactions. Business rules, when defined and enforced, help to ensure compliance with corporate strategies, best practices, and regulations.
Corticon Business Rules Modeling Studio is a standalone desktop environment to model business rules and to transform those rules into executable decision services. Corticon Studio supports all aspects of the modeling process, from initial capture of business requirements through analysis of the logical rule models, through creation and testing of "decision services" used to automate the rules in enterprise systems.
