Das Kursangebot im Master Informatik besteht aus
- der Vorlesung “Modelling Sustainable Systems and Semantic Web”, synchron online, do 11-13 Uhr
- einem Seminar “Complex Systems and Co-Operative Action”, synchron online, di 9-11 Uhr,
- dem Online-Praktikum zur TRIZ-Methodik.
Folien und Handouts zu Vorlesung und Seminar sind in englischer Sprache, da international Interesse an der Verfolgung unserer Debatten geäußert wurde. Im Gegensatz zu einer ersten Planung werden aber die Vorlesung und auch die meisten Seminardiskussionen in deutsch stattfinden. Ausnahmen imSeminar sind möglch.
Alle drei Bestandteile können als 10 LP Vertiefungsmodul 10-202-2309 "Semantic Web" angerechnet werden. Prüfungsvorleistung sind ein Vortrag im Seminar sowie das erfolgreich absolvierte TRIZ-Praktikum, Prüfungsleistung eine mündliche Prüfung.
Vorlesung und Seminar können auch als 5 LP Seminarmodul 10-202-2312 "Angewandte Informatik" angerechnet werden. Prüfungsvorleistung ist ein Vortrag im Seminar. Als Prüfungsleistung ist bis zum Ende des Semesters (30.09.2021) eine Seminararbeit anzufertigen.
Das Praktikum allein kann als 5 LP Modul 10-202-2012 "Aktuelle Trends der Informatik" im Master Informatik angerechnet werden. Prüfungsvorleistung ist das erfolgreich absolvierte TRIZ-Praktikum, Prüfungsleistung eine mündliche Prüfung.
Bitte schreiben Sie sich im OPAL zügig in die entsprechende Gruppe ein, damit der Kurs entsprechend genauer geplant werden kann.
Bitte beachten Sie dass der Zugang zum TRIZ-Trainer kostenpflichtig ist. Dies betrifft Studierende, die das Vertiefungsmodul oder das Praktikumsmodul belegen. Detail werden mündlich erläutert.
Da die Veranstaltungen alle online stattfinden, haben wir einzelne Bestandteile oder auch den ganzen Kurs für externe Teilnehmer geöffnet. Die alleinige Teilnahme an Vorlesung und Seminar ist kostenfrei, es wird auch keine Seminarleistung erwartet, das TRIZ-Praktikum ist kostenpflichtig.

The Semantic Web extends the Web in order to make data easier to exchange between computers and make it easier to use; for example, the term "Bremen" in a web document can be supplemented with information as to whether it refers to a ship with that name, a family name or the town "Bremen". This additional information makes information explicit in otherwise unstructured data. To add such information in a formalised way Semantic Web standards for the publication and use of machine-readable data (especially RDF) are applied. (More about Semantic Web)
This is a very technical view that does not take into account, why these distinctions are relevant at all. In this more general sense Semantic Web Technologies are concerned with the sharpening of the meaning of concepts in particular contexts.
These challenges are part of another core informatics competence – the ability to elicit corresponding requirement complexes within the framework of Requirements Engineering, to structure and finally to model them.
The focus of the lecture is on the connection of these two complexes of competences, whereby it is assumed that students in computer science already have a basic knowledge of both areas. A special focus is on the resolution of contradictory requirement situations as the core of systematic innovation methodologies such as TRIZ.
The lecture is based on the concept of a "Flipped Classroom", which assumes, that you studied beforehand the material mentioned for the current lecture. In the lecture only the main concepts and relationships will be presented in a cursory manner. On the other hand, time will be spent for questions and discussions of controversial or incomprehensible concepts.
Systematic innovation methodologies such as TRIZ are essentially based on a better understanding of the development dynamics of corresponding (technical and non-technical) systems. The results are rooted in engineering experience from structured processes of planning, implementation and operation of technical systems. Increasingly, cooperative interdisciplinary collaboration matters rather than the one brilliant mind that commands thousand hands. The socio-technical character of contradictions is thereby intensified and opens up new dimensions of contradiction management.
Today, managers face similar challenges when it comes to placing decision-making processes on a systematic basis, aligning the processes under control with long term goals, and also achieving the targeted goal corridors. It turns out that many engineering experiences on structured procedures in contradictory requirement situations can be transferred to this area, which has been investigated within the topic "TRIZ and Business" for 20 years.
Nevertheless, experiences and approaches to theories of structured management are based more broadly and also have much longer historical traditions. In the seminar, we want to study this field more closely, with special attention to cooperative approaches in interdisciplinary contexts.
The seminar is a research seminar in which we will jointly study different aspects and management approaches and relate them to each other and to TRIZ approaches to contradictory requirement situations.
Students are expected to actively participate in the seminar through discussions, presentations and last but not least by reading the relevant materials. For the successful completion of the seminar, a topic has to be prepared as a discussion leader and a 2-3 page handout has to be submitted in advance.
Further details on the concept and procedure can be found in the handout "Seminar Concept" as well as in the "Seminar plan" in the github Repo "Seminar-S21".
In this course, the focus is on the prerequisites and conditions associated with sharpening the meaning of terms in concrete contexts. Technical issues of the Semantic Web will be addressed only marginally, as we assume that sufficient materials exist on the web to learn more about such concepts to the extent required for practical purposes, especially in the context of the seminar papers to be written. If necessary, individual additional dates will be offered in which specific aspects of greater interest will be discussed.
The course is designed at an interdisciplinary academic level.
Interdisciplinary means that colleagues from different areas are involved – Sabine Lautenschläger (IIRM), Ken Pierre Kleemann (philosophy), Ralf Laue and Hans-Gert Gräbe (computer science) – and we expect additional partners from practice.
Academic means that we want to work with each other and with you – especially in the seminar – at equal level. It is about rational argumentation on a scientific level, i.e. we count for arguments and not apodictic truths.
We are aware that this is a high demand especially on preparation for these events in your self-study, but we assume that these but we assume that these efforts will pay off.
