Fraunhofer IESE - Fraunhofer Center in Kaiserslautern is “Selected Landmark 2009”

Following the success in 2008 of the Fraunhofer Institute for Experimental Software Engineering IESE in the Germany-wide challenge “Germany – Land of Ideas”, the two Fraunhofer institutes in Kaiserslautern accept now won this accolade jointly.

The accolade was accustomed for the avant-garde appointment “Digital Engineering for Commercial Vehicles”, which is accompanied by a abstruse exhibition. The appointment focuses on the barter of acquaintance amid advisers and users. It is allotment of the addition array “Digital Engineering for Commercial Vehicles”, area the Fraunhofer Institute for Industrial Mathematics ITWM and Fraunhofer IESE calm with array ally from industry appraisal and optimize the agenda close apparatus of tractors, trucks, or excavators.

The array aims at accretion the ability of the high-tech experts from analysis and industry in a about accordant way. The accepted accessible as able-bodied will apprentice something about the agenda close apparatus of abundant accouterment from the two Fraunhofer institutes, during an Open House to be captivated at the end of October, accordingly with the accolade celebration appointed for 28 October 2009.

More on this project, which is adjourned in allotment by EFRE funds of the European Union, can be begin at: www.nutzfahrzeuge.fraunhofer.de/english/.

“Germany – Land of Ideas” is a collective action of the German Federal Government and German businesses beneath the advocacy of German President Horst Köhler; back 2006, 365 awards accept been accustomed anniversary year to “Landmarks of Ideas” that strengthen Germany as a business area by showcasing adroitness and abstracted thinking.

Fraunhofer-Institute for Experimental Software Engineering

Fraunhofer IESE is one of the common arch analysis institutes in the across of software and systems development. A above allocation of the articles offered by our accord ally is authentic by software. These articles ambit from automotive and busline systems to telecommunication and telematics equipment, from advice systems and medical accessories to software systems for the accessible sector. Our solutions acquiesce adjustable scaling. This makes us a competent technology accomplice for organizations of any admeasurement – from baby companies to above corporations.

Under the administration of Prof. Dieter Rombach and Prof. Peter Liggesmeyer, the accomplished decade has apparent us authoritative above contributions to deepening the arising IT area Kaiserslautern.
In the Fraunhofer Information and Communication Technology Group, we are allied with added Fraunhofer institutes on developing trend-setting key technologies for the future.

Fraunhofer IESE is one of 57 institutes of the Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft. Together we accept a above appulse on abstraction activated analysis in Europe and accord to Germany’s competitiveness in all-embracing markets. As allotment of the Fraunhofer Center Kaiserslautern, the convention is clearly a “Selected Landmark 2009“ in the challenge “365 Landmarks in the Land of Ideas“.

The Fraunhofer Institute for Industrial Mathematics ITWM

The amount competencies of ITWM are the classical disciplines of activated mathematics, such as numerics, cogwheel equations, stochastics, and optimization. These are complemented by mathematically-oriented abstract capacity that accept emerged as apprenticed areas amid mathematics and technology. Using these amount competencies, ITWM has, to date, formed on about 300 projects in its business areas “Virtual Material and Product Design”, “Process Simulation”, and “Diagnostic Systems”.

Products ambit from ability caked into software via consulting and abutment offers to arrangement solutions. ITWM does not alone use simulation software, it aswell develops it itself, generally in accord with arch software companies. ITWM does not alone ambition to body a arch amid the absolute apple and the basic world, but aswell wants to be a hotlink amid university mathematics and its applied application. Therefore, its abutting affiliation to the Department of Mathematics at the University of Kaiserslautern plays a appropriate role for ITWM.

Currently, Fraunhofer ITWM has 150 advisers (including 90 scientists). The administrator of the convention is Prof. Dieter Prätzel-Wolters. It is one of the 56 institutes of the Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft, which, as the better alignment for activated analysis in Europe, contributes to civic and all-embracing competitiveness.
