Background of Thesis project
Volvo Group IT has many in-house developed IT systems supporting the Volvo Aftermarket. In several of these systems, product matching is performed on a daily basis with high frequency in order e.g. to select the correct version of software to download for a specific truck or to find the correct service and repair instruction for a specific truck.
Description of Thesis work
The main objective of this project is to optimize the product matching algorithm. You will work with a sandbox environment where the current product matching algorithm is the baseline. Using this baseline you are expected to analyze and investigate how the performance of the matching can be improved. You will implement different strategies you identify using relevant technologies and compare pros and cons. And you will have great freedom in proposing strategies and technologies for the project.
