VSR News

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.

Today's lecture for Security of Distributed Software (SVS) has to be postponed to next Tuesday (16.06.)! More information will be sent via OPAL.

All three online lectures (SVS, CWA, Rechnernetze) will be held tomorrow in the BBB-rooms. You can find the links to the rooms and the access codes in the OPAL courses.

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!

Based on the Second Open letter from the President regarding the Coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2), all educational courses from our VSR professorship are currently postponed.

In particular, this applies to the final pitches of the Planspiel Web Engineering and the regular start of the summer semester 2020 courses. Other activities such as staff member meetings, oral exams or thesis defenses can currently take place on an individual basis.

We will keep you up-to-date via our website and other communication channels.

In the meantime, you can find further information on the news site of the rectorat of Chemnitz University of Technology. 

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.

We wish all our students excellent results in the up-coming exam period.
