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

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. 

On 6 November 2019, our VSR research group participated at the EU Research Day at Chemnitz University of Technology. 

It is an information event on European research funding opportunities and supported by the Saxony Liaison Office Brussels, the Saxon State Ministry for Science and the Arts (SMWK), the Central EU Service Facility Saxony (ZEUSS) and the Enterprise Europe Network (EEN).

Our VSR professorship is experienced in European projects such as FP7-ICT OMELETTE and constantly interested in new collaborative research partnerships for current H2020 and upcoming Horizon Europe activities.

André Langer participated for our VSR professorship in the 15th semantics Conference in September 2019 in Karlsruhe.

We presented an analysis of current RDM applications for the interdisciplinary publication of research data and chaired two sessions on Semantic Information Management.

This year, Mahda Noura and Valentin Siegert visited the 19th International Conference on Web Engineering in Daejeon, South Korea.

We presented our contributions about our latest findings and research results on Web of Things, Content Trust, and received positive and valuable feedback on our work.
