Aktuelle Projekte

KONTIKAT Forschergruppe (Continuity Management)

Forschungsfokus: Vunerabilität, Obsoleezenz, Disruption techn. Infrastrukturen und Komponenten (Kontinuität & Resilienz von betrieblichen / gesellschaftlichen Prozessen)

Krisen und Schadensereignisse können das gesellschaftliche Leben und wirtschaftliche Prozesse erheblich beinträchtigen. Dabei muss es sich nicht um Katastrophen handeln. Auch der regionale Ausfall von Telekommunikationsanlagen über Stunden oder Tage kann bereits weitreichende Folgen haben. Im Fokus des Projekts KONTIKAT steht die Aufrechterhaltung und Wiederherstellung des gesellschaftlichen Lebens nach größeren Schadensereignissen und Katastrophen. Hierzu sollen empirische Studien zur Erfassung der sozialen Vernetzung der Bevölkerung sowie von kleinen und mittleren Unternehmen durchgeführt werden. Die Ergebnisse tragen dazu bei, die Selbstorganisation, Hilfeleistungen und Notfallkommunikation in Krisensituationen zu fördern.

Warnung und Alarmierung der Bevölkerung

Aufbauend auf den Erkenntnissen vonBaSiGo,SiKommundInfoStromsowie in stetigem Austausch mitKOKOShat das Projekt die Entwicklung und Erprobung neuer Warn- und Alamierungskonzepte zum Ziel. Ein zentrales Kriterium ist es dabei, möglichst viele Bevölkerungsgruppen unserer multikulturellen Gesellschaft zu erreichen und ein in der jeweiligen Situation angemessenes, resistentes Handeln zu motivieren.

Für eine korridorweise Warn- und Alarmierungsbeschallung im Krisen- und Katastrophenfall konzeptioniert und implementiert das IMT mobile Demonstratoren auf Basis der Ultrasound-Technologie (Norris 2004; Pompei 1999), die zur Beschallung der Bevölke-rung eingesetzt werden können. Das System besteht aus Ultraschalllautsprechern (American Technology Corporation: „HSS HyperSonic Sound“; Massachusetts Institute of Technology / Holosonics: „Audio Spotlight“), die einen Schallstrahl aus moduliertem Ultraschall erzeugen. Modellhaft können bestimmte Szenarien (z.B. Explosionen) mittels Multiphysics von COMSOL simuliert und Einflussfaktoren exploriert werden, um die optimale Anordnung bzw. Handhabung im Einsatz der Ultraschalltechnologie zu determinieren.

KOKOS

Das vom Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung mit 1,8 Millionen Euro geförderte Projekt „Unterstützung der Kooperation mit freiwilligen Helfern in komplexen Schadenslagen (KOKOS)“ entwickelt Methoden, technische Konzepte sowie IT-Werkzeuge, um die Öffentlichkeit (Bevölkerung, Vereine, Verbände, Unternehmen) als aktiven Partner in das Krisenmanagement einzubeziehen und eine Kooperation anzustreben. Die beteiligten Wissenschaftlerinnen und Wissenschaftler untersuchen von Mai 2015 bis April 2018, wie bereits vorhandene gesellschaftliche, wirtschaftliche und zivile Strukturen in die Bewältigung größerer Krisenlagen (u.a. auch bei der Flüchtingshilfe) sinnvoll einbezogen werden können.

InfoStrom (2010-2013)

Im Fokus des Forschungsprojekts InfoStrom steht die technische Unterstützung der interorganisationalen Zusammenarbeit und organisationsübergreifenden Wiederherstellungsarbeit im Falle eines Stromausfalls. Alle Technologien, Konzepte und Methoden zur Verbesserung interorganisationaler Kommunikations-, Informations- und Koordinationsprozesse werden in Zusammenarbeit von der Universität Siegen, Frauenhofer FIT, PSI Transcom, RWE, SAP Research und mit den Kreisen Rhein-Erft und Siegen-Wittgenstein entwickelt und evaluiert.

    [BibTeX] [Abstract] [Download PDF]

    This workshop discusses organizational resilience and resilient infrastructures by uniting researchers, professionals, and experts from various disciplines. Workplace studies and organizational settings have always been an integral theme in computer-supported cooperative work (CSCW) research. This workshop hopes to broaden this research horizon by overlapping the multidisciplinary perspectives of resilience and crisis research with human-computer interaction (HCI), CSCW, organizational, and business studies. The COVID-19 pandemic and the subsequent physical and social constraints have been detrimental to the activities of different organizations, especially to small and medium enterprises (SMEs). SMEs must recognize and search for opportunities to adapt to this crisis by developing resilient organizational infrastructures. These adaptations can be crucial to overcoming the current disruptions challenging the continued existence keeping in view the intrinsic diversification of various business and industrial sectors. How organizational infrastructures can be designed to instill resilient properties like adaptive capacity, self-adjustment and continuity? We intend to focus on bringing this discussion under the umbrella of CSCW to explore the potentials of collaboration and cooperative work in organizational infrastructure. Through this workshop, we offer research prospects by applying organizational resilience theories to study organizational infrastructure and infrastructuring activities, which can be used for their prospective transformations into resilient infrastructures.

    Digitalization is an ever-increasing phenomenon and is being focused in all prominent research communities around the world. When it comes to businesses, the concept of digitalization can have its far-reaching impacts due to the diverseness of business and distinctiveness of their capabilities. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are of dire importance in this research arena, due to their immense share in global economy and organizational characteristics. The concept of digitalization needs special attention for these business specimens. Technology adoption models need to be built which can transcend the utility of digitalization and digital technologies in SMEs. We propose a hypothetical technology adoption model for increasing the digital maturity in small and medium business organizations and further proposing that matured digitalization will lead to centralized business continuity infrastructure which can boost the organizational resilience.
