During lecture time, we have our Lunchtime Seminar each Tuesday from 12.15-12.45. During this seminars, researchers of the Department or invited guest provide us with insights into their research.

As a consequence of the German energy transformation, energy markets are significantly affected by solar and wind power. Since renewable feed-in can only be predicted several days ahead with increasing quality as less time remains, short term power markets gain importance. Optimizing flexible assets in short term markets is a highly complex task since mathematical, technical and process-related challenges have to be considered. This talk will give an overview on the existing short term... mehr |
| 24.05.2016 | Lunchtime - Christian Remfert (Universität Münster) |
IT Service Management (ITSM) is an IT management paradigm highly recognized and widely used in practice. The paradigm is promoted by international industry standards and frameworks, the most prominent one being the Information Technology Infrastructure Library (ITIL). As such, ITSM has also attracted more and more interest from academia since the turn of the century. Despite its widespread adoption in practice and extant research, there is still much ambiguity surrounding the concept of an... mehr |
| 03.05.2016 | Lunchtime Seminar - The paradoxical relationship between journalism and its audience - or: How to make sense of user-generated content? |
As part of the larger transformation of public communication in the digital age, professional journalists are faced with an increasing amount of audience feedback, e.g. in forums, comments sections, and social media. In pre‐digital times, conversations among audience members about mass media content remained largely invisible to journalists, with the exception of letters or calls to the editor. Today, the conversations of “the people formerly known as the audience” (Jay Rosen) are becoming... mehr |

The digital transformation of technology and society creates abundant opportunities for novel service systems. Service systems are complex socio-technical systems that enable value co-creation. Service systems engineering (SSE) calls for research on evidence-based design knowledge for such systems that permeate our society. Information systems research is ideally positioned to contribute significantly to trans-disciplinary research in this area through (action) design research or the... mehr |

SPEAKER: Prof. Dr. Tilo Böhmann, University of Hamburg TOPIC: Service Systems Engineering - The contribution of information systems research to advancing digital services |

IS research is struggling with irrelevance. There is a huge gap between the development of novel and innovative IT tools on the one hand, and rigorous scientific methods on the other hand. Conferences and journals are filled with empirical studies that are well-executed but lack practical relevance and often even provide rather limited theoretical knowledge. At the same time, researchers developing IT artifacts often face well-justified critique concerning the scientific rigor in developing... mehr |
| 19.01.2016 | Dr. Alexander Simons, Dr. Markus Weinmann, Dr. Stefan Fleischer, Isabell Wohlgenannt: Sid Meier’s Civilization: Can this video game predict job performance? |
Civilization is a popular series of turn-based strategy video games. The game is broad, so it confronts players with high complexity. Dealing with this complexity requires good analytical skills (e.g., organization and planning), but in the multiplayer mode, interpersonal skills (e.g., negotiation and communication) are likewise important. These and similar skills are also relevant in the job market, especially for managerial positions, so the question arises whether Civilization can predict... mehr |

Future electrical power systems will be composed of large collections of autonomous components. Sensors and actuators, aware of their environment, with the ability to communicate freely, will have to organize themselves in order to perform the actions and services that are required for a reliable and robust power supply. Monitoring and efficiently operating such a system is a challenging task for the underlying information and communication (ICT) infrastructure as well as the system’s “... mehr |
