Foreword

Dear Reader,
Today we present the fourth instalment of our book series Automation,
Communication and Cybernetics. Like its predecessors this book brings together
our scientifically diverse and widespread publications from the period of July 2014
to June 2016. The peer-reviewed publications have been published in recognised
journals, books or conference proceedings of the various disciplinary cultures.
Below you find an up to date version of the organisational structure of our
Cybernetics Lab. It is headed by Sabina Jeschke with Ingrid Isenhardt and Frank
Hees as her Deputy and Vice Deputy. The former Head Klaus Henning still supports us as Senior Advisor. The Cybernetics Lab itself consists of three institutes:
the Institute of Information Management in Mechanical Engineering IMA, the
Center for Learning and Knowledge Management ZLW and the Associated
Institute for Management Cybernetics e.V. IfU, which are managed by Tobias
Meisen, Anja Richert and René Vossen respectively. Our research activities are
arranged in nine different research groups whose activities are described further
below.

Foreword

Although the structure itself has not changed the people or their statuses have.
Our managing director of the IMA, Tobias Meisen, is now a Junior Professor and
within the Cybernetics Lab we have several new research group leaders:
• At the IMA Thomas Thiele is now the leader of the group Production
Technology, Christian Kohlschein of the group Cognitive Computing &
eHealth and Max Haberstroh heads the group Traffic and Mobility.
• In the ZLW Christian Tummel now heads the research group Agile
Management & eHumanties. Stefan Schröder took over the team Innovation
& Research Futurology, Sebastian Stiehm the group Knowledge Engineering
and Valerie Stehling the group Didactics in STEM Fields.
• At the IfU the Heads of the research groups are now Kristina Lahl and Sebastian
Reuter for the groups Economic and Social Cybernetics and Engineering
Cybernetics respectively.
The scientific core of the Institute of Information Management in Mechanical
Engineering – IMA consists of three research groups:
• The scope of the research group Production Technology is to provide innovative research regarding information management for Industry 4.0. The group
is specialised in methods and procedures from computer science to semantically
integrate, to consolidate and to propagate data generated in these domains. In
addition, their research focuses on visualisation and interaction techniques
to enable the user to analyse the retrieved information in an explorative
and interactive way. Thereby, their research covers a broad range of different
areas especially virtual and automated production. Meeting the challenges of

information management within these areas, the group studies information

integration, descriptive and predictive analysis using a variety of techniques
from artificial intelligence like regression, machine learning, natural language
processing and data mining as well as visual analytics. Regarding the domain of
virtual production, the group has shaped the concept of the Virtual Production
Intelligence (VPI) to collaboratively and holistically support product-, factoryand machine planners. The work of the group provides essential basics to
facilitate the realisation of cyber-physical production systems (CPPS) and
therefore is a cornerstone of information management in Industry 4.0.
• The research group Traffic and Mobility is working on concepts for multimodal freight transport and urban mobility, intelligent transport systems and on
the design of user-friendly and barrier-free mobility solutions and human–
machine-interaction. In its projects, the research group investigates concepts for
autonomous vehicles, advanced driver assistant systems and the interactions and
interdependencies between humans, organisation and technology. In order to
develop holistic solutions, the interdisciplinary team combines skills and
knowledge from engineering, computer science, sociology and economics. The
applied methods of the research group range from simulator and real-life testing,
over usage-centered design, empirical studies and acceptance or mental stress
and strain analysis. One approach to reach the ideal of efficient freight traffic
of the future is to use modular, worldwide usable loading units with appropriate
transport carriers. All research is based upon the holistic consideration of the
three recursion dimensions: human, organisation and technology. The activities
of the research group include the research and development of new technologies
as well as the development of methods and tools for the product development
process in the above mentioned application fields.

• The research group Cognitive Computing & eHealth focuses on research
considering information management supporting healthcare. The group is specialised to meet the challenges within the research fields predictive data analytics and visual analytics. The research group understands itself as an
“integrator” within the eHealth domain: educating and providing experts in the
mentioned research fields, but also understanding the importance of covering
and dealing with problems of all phases (i.e. needs assessment, integration,
evaluation, and deployment) of the information management cycle. Lately, the
group focused on research topics occurring in scenarios of medical emergencies,
thus developing an intelligent and reliable ad-hoc network structure streaming
medical data in real-time from the case of incident to an expert. Predictive
analytics is used to detect upcoming delays, future connection losses, or
approaching quality reductions. The eHealth group coined the term “prescient
profiling” which is used to describe an AI driven concept selecting relevant
laypersons to nearby medical emergencies. To determine relevancy the solution
considers for example traveling speed, known behavioural patterns (i.e. trajectories), current circumstances, and infrastructural limitations. Currently, the
group works on an algorithm to predict the emotions of a driver interacting with
a navigation system to adapt the systems behaviour accordingly. In the near
future, the group will also use its expertise to establish a complex and highly

Foreword

available information management system for rapidly changing ad-hoc infrastructures that are for example needed to ensure information availability in the
case of major incidents.
The Center for Learning and Knowledge Management – ZLW has four research
groups:
• The research group Innovation Research and Futurology focuses on two
fields. Innovation research concentrates on a concept of innovation management, which not only comprises planning, realisation, and design of processes
and structures to create innovation, but also stresses the innovative capability.

The first research field focuses on innovation systems with various dimensions
like regional and national innovation systems as well as their relevant subsystems, which are created and analysed from a cybernetic perspective. This is
achieved by a holistic consideration of the system-intrinsic dimensions “human,
organisation and technology”, in order to produce innovative capability of the
involved actors under competitive and sustainable conditions. The second field
of the research group depicts futurology. Here, a monitoring approach is applied
for different research, development and funding programs. Consequently, a
range of future trends, scenarios and development strategies is derived for
respective target groups. This expertise is supplied to experts in science,
economy and policy.
• The research group Knowledge Engineering currently focuses on three topics:
First, it supports and explores the development and steering of inter- and
transdisciplinary networks and clusters of excellence with the aim to identify
and promote synergies as a source of innovation. A continuous qualitative and
quantitative evaluation of the research network as well as text mining of scientific publications with machine learning are realized. The use of interactive
data visualizations for a feedback and exploration of the results is considered in
both cases. Second, within the framework of demographic change in the labour
world, the research group develops concepts for the evaluation and analysis of
company’s demographic alignment. Making use of a wide range of quantitative
research methods, holistic demography management systems can be implemented, which also respect the perspectives of the various stakeholders
involved. Third, the research group focuses on the identification of opportunities
and potentials for (re-) integrating production sites into urban space with a
holistic, transdisciplinary view. Realizing a socio-technical research-approach,
the research group develops factors and scenarios of urban production by
combining methods of empirical social research with data science.
• With an interdisciplinary team of communication scientists, engineers, psychologists, sociologists and computer scientists the research group Didactics in
STEM Fields is dealing with challenges of didactics, especially those of the
STEM Fields, including mathematics, computer sciences and engineering. To
ensure the development of successful didactical concepts, the involvement of
every actor actively participating in education is needed. Therefore groups of

students, teaching staff, intermediate organisations and other experts on


Foreword

university didactics are involved in our research activities. The user oriented
approach of the research focuses on learning in virtual environments, learning
with natural user interfaces and VR-technology, remote and virtual laboratories
and other forms of computer and web based learning. Moreover, social aspects
of learning in a higher education context are investigated. Here, the focus lies on
mentoring concepts, students’ mobility and service based learning methods. In
all its activities, the research group considers the whole student life cycle, from
pupils, bachelor and master students up to doctoral candidates.
• The research group Agile Management & eHumanities deals with the application of data analytics approaches in social sciences and humanities. The major
effort is the examination of how computer-assisted processes and digital
resources are systematically used in these disciplines while its main emphasis is
put on the field of data analytics with special regards to social media. In order to
manage the continuously increasing complexity and dynamics in organisational
structures the field of Agile Management investigates the application and
implementation of agile methods, techniques, principles, and values. As far as
the application area of research on competencies is concerned, the analysis
of the “digital footprints” from employers and staff is focused, which allows to
draw conclusions on hidden profile characteristics. The identification of these
hidden characteristics and their significance for tomorrow’s job market are
current research topics in this field. Furthermore, the research group conducts
analyses on effects of these characteristics in order to enhance individual
competencies by optimizing qualification processes and programmes in the
context of academic teaching.

The Associated Institute for Management Cybernetics e.V. – IfU used the
opportunity to extend its research focus once more:
• The research team Economic and Social Cybernetics deals with cybernetic
methods and tools for industrial applications. The main research topics include
the assessment of organisational culture and structure, business model innovation and development of decision support tools. In the context of evaluation and
decision support enhanced economic assessment tools including uncertainty and
soft aspects and sustainability assessment tools are generated. In interdisciplinary research projects cybernetic tools and solutions for complex problems in
collaboration with industrial and research partners are developed. The employed
methods include system dynamics, viable system model, organizational culture
assessment instrument (OCAI) and business model canvas. Furthermore,
cybernetic tools for the development of sustainable product strategies, design of
efficient organisational structure, culture based implementation of quality
management, and change processes are applied.
• The research team Engineering Cybernetics is a part of the Institute for
Management Cybernetics at the RWTH Aachen University. Its research
objectives are intelligent planning and control algorithms for technical systems.
The focus is on mobile robotics within intralogistic applications as well as
process planning and industrial robotics. Here the group addresses aspects of


x

Foreword

human robot interaction and collaboration. The main goal is to endow the
respective technical systems with autonomy and situational awareness in order
to achieve more robust behaviour and an increased flexibility while at the same
time simplifying the interaction with those systems. (Multi-)agent technologies,
closed loop control systems and visual serving, and natural interface technologies play an important role. The research group also maintains the institute’s school labs.
We would like to thank our scientific researchers who work hard and publish

continuously and without whom we would not have accomplished the now fourth
instalment of this diverse and comprehensive collection. Further, we would like to
acknowledge the support of our administrative and technical staff who fight the
battles with bureaucracy and IT-technologies for us to keep our minds focused on
our research projects and the education of students. At last we would like to thank
our Public Relations team and especially Miro Tommack for the unification of all
these different articles.
