The scale of the environmental impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is beginning to become clearer. On the positive side, AI will no doubt be used to find ways to optimise energy use and reduce waste across various industries and be better at allocating scare resources. However, the development and deployment of AI requires substantial computational […]
Innovation is not a new concept but embracing it rapidly and adapting to the disruption it brings is going to be key in 2025. Those that fail to innovate, and in particular quickly embrace technological innovations to enhance their core offerings, risk being left behind in the race to triumph in the financial markets. As […]
Reduce testing cycles, operational and business risks and overall costs, whilst ensuring faster time-to-market and early detection of defects.
Robotic Process Automation (RPA) is not about robots taking our jobs. It is about enabling organisations to make the best use of their employees in areas that add value to the firm’s operations by delegating repetitive tasks to machines. In the current high-pressured, cost-focused business environment, this could be the difference between surviving and thriving. […]
Brickendon’s Director and Robotic Process Automation (RPA) expert Iya Datikashvili features in the latest edition of The European discussing automation and how we at Brickendon believe that 2018 will be the year that automation becomes the norm across the financial services sector and in particular RPA. For banks RPA has a number of benefits including […]
Testing and quality assurance are an essential part of the software development life cycle (SDLC) and without them software programmes would not be what they are today – useful, time-saving applications that help businesses carry out day-to-day processes in an efficient, secure and methodical manner. However, testing and quality assurance should not only be carried […]
This year is expected to be all about the acceleration of the process to replace people with robotics and automation – but are we really that close to seeing robots as fellow employees in the financial services sector, and, if so, how will it actually work? Brickendon’s resident robotics expert, Quality & Testing Practice Director […]
Banking systems are full of processes. Whether it’s client onboarding, due diligence, or any other step in the process of running a bank, there is always information to gather, store, interpret, review and transfer in order for the business to continue operating effectively. Many of these processes require a series of actions, which often take […]
Balancing testing speed and release quality is one of the biggest challenges in software engineering. Even if you can keep up with testing the new functionality of a release, the continuous needs of testing the ever-growing regression scope can often seem unattainable. Regression testing is performed when changes are made to the existing functionality of […]
Recent news that a 20-day Poker tournament ended with a robot beating the world’s four best players and amassing $1.7 million in chips has been described as a crushing defeat for humanity, but a major milestone for artificial intelligence (AI). It’s not the first time that phrase has been used and definitely won’t be the […]
