On ELISE, all data and the entire expert knowledge of the development process are integrated. Engineers are thus provided with technical capabilities that are otherwise only available to software developers, despite their diverse skills. This is achieved through a visual programming language for which no special IT knowledge is required. Users of ELISE work in numerous industries, including automotive, aerospace and medical technology.
