Over several years, the DFKI gained expertise in building and exploiting digital lifelogs for users and objects. This webpage provides an overview of running and past activities of DFKI in this field, including research projects, workshops, and teaching.
Welcome to the website of the project SemProM, products keep a diary: smart labels give products a memory and support intelligent logistics. Within the IKT-2020 research program of the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research the Innovation Alliance “Digital Product Memory” (DPM) is developing key technologies for the Internet of Things in the cooperative project SemProM. By the use of integrated sensors, relations in the production process become transparent and supply chains as well as environmental influences retraceable. The producer gets supported and the consumer better informed about the product.
I'm working at the German Research Center for Artificial Intelligence (DFKI GmbH) in Saarbrücken. My general research interests comprise adaptive user interfaces, Semantic Web, and Ubiquitous Computing. Within these areas, I devoted so far special attention to the building and the exploitation digital memories, the related issue user modeling, and methods for adapting layout and style.
