Our VSR team member Sebastian Heil successfully defended his PhD thesis "Web Migration Revisited Adressing Effort and Risk Concerns" on 24 September 2020.

We congratulate Sebastian to his achievement and are happy to further work with him in our VSR research group at Chemnitz University of Technolgy in the future.

In June 2020, our VSR staff member André Langer attended the 8. Leipziger Semantic Web Tag organized by AKSW/InfAI and sponsored by the eccenca GmbH. #LSWT2020

We got valuable insights into current activities of other partners in the context of Knowledge Graphs, Linked Data Management and Entity Recognition. This information exchange will enhance ongoing research projects of our VSR professorship in the knowledge domain of research information management infrastructures and interdisciplinary research data publishing. 

This year, our VSR team participated in the 20th International Conference on Web Engineering with three accepted research publications. #ICWE2020

Mahda Noura, Sebastian Heil and Martin Gaedke presented the contribution VISH: Does Your Smart Home Dialogue System Also Need Training Data?

In a joint activity with the Novosibirsk State Technical University and C&A Europe, Maxim Bakaev, Maximilian Speicher, Sebastian Heil and Martin Gaedke presented the paper I Don’t Have That Much Data! Reusing User Behavior Models for Websites from Different Domains

Finally, our colleagues André Langer, Dang Vu Nguyen Hai and Martin Gaedke presented SolidRDP: Applying Solid Data Containers for Research Data Publishing. They also won the Most Popular Video Award among all ICWE conference submissions this year.

Congratulations to all authors for their excellent work.

Our VSR colleagues Dang Vu Nguyen Hai and André Langer actively took part in the 11th Annual International VIVO Conference. #VIVO2020

In a 15 minutes talk, they provided valuable insights to the world-wide community into our practical development of a research information infrastructure and our current research focus on how to improve information access for different stakeholder groups and how to facilitate data mining for expertise knowledge sources.

We are very happy and proud to announce, that our research on "Improving Fake Product Detection using AI-based Technology" got an Outstanding Paper award at the 18th International Conference on e-Society 2020 . Congratulations to our VSR members Eduard Daoud, Dang Vu Nguyen Hai, Hung Nguyen and Martin Gaedke!

Our external PhD student Christian Hochmuth successfully defended his PhD thesis "Strategic planning of technical capacity in complex production systems: mathematical optimization of graphical models with the software AURELIE" on 27 February 2020.

We congratulate Christian to his achievement and wish him all the best for his future.

Our VSR professorship is part of the newly established ESF-funded Young Researcher Group DYNAMIK

Within the next three years, we will do excellent research on a Dynamic navigation and orientation system for physically
impaired people in complex buildings, together with the Professorships for Circuit and System Design, Media Computer Science and Media Psychology.

In January 2020, the CRC 1410 Hybrid Societies started its activities at Chemnitz University of Technology.

Within this Collaborative Research Center, our VSR professorship leads the activities on a sustainable, cross-domamin information infrastructure together with the professorship for private law and intellectual property of Prof. Dr. Gesmann-Nuissl.

Our vsr staff member André Langer participated for our VSR professorship in the ACM 3rd International Conference on BigData Research (ICBDR 2019) at the École Internationale des Sciences du Traitement de l'Information (EISTI) in November 2019 in Cergy, France. 

We presented our latest research results on Multi-party computation in Cloud-based environments as a joint venture project with the SAP SE Innovation Center Network in Dresden.

On the occasion of the Internal OpenAccessWeek 2019, the university library and our VSR professorship organized the event "Connected research in a hyper-connected world" on 28 October 2019.

The session was opened by the lead of the university library Ms. Angela Malz and the prorector Prof. Ihleman. Then, we had the pleasure that Prof. Auer from TIB Hannover presented current research on the Open Research Knowledge Graph and Ms. Britta Dreyer gave a presentation on ORCID. Finally, Mr. André Langer from our VSR professorshp gave insights in current activities on TUCbib towards a holistic research information management at Chemnitz University of Technology.
