Creative Intent and Reflective Practices for Reliable and Performative Human-AI Systems

Creative Intent and Reflective Practices for Reliable and Performative Human-AI Systems
In our contribution we underline the relevance of creative intent for making semi-autonomous human-AI systems reliable and performative. We show the challenges resulting from the autonomy of AI-based systems and argue that human creative intent allows to cope with them and to bring systems forward. It provides them with the capacity to generate meaningful contextual interactions through hybrid human-technology reflective practices. We illustrate the necessity for enhancing the reliability of systems on the basis of a high variety of use cases from (semi)autonomous driving, manufacturing, software development, healthcare and higher education - all of outstanding relevance for societal development towards a bright future. Against this background we discuss how to design technology for keeping human creative intent and performative reflective practices in the loop. The outlook gives emphasis to future research methods with respect to living lab components and ethnographic research in ...

Logistic Challenges for Modern Sonar Systems

Logistic Challenges for Modern Sonar Systems

Jan Topi Tervo, Thorsten Philipp
Atlas Elektronik is a leading systems house for maritime electronics and stands for maritime security world-wide. Our combat and sonar systems are integrated on various naval platforms, like frigates, corvettes or conventional submarines. Besides building and integration phases for such systems, especially the operational phase of 25 or more years is a big challenge regarding reliability, maintainability and supportability. Special demands have to be fulfilled. To cope with these challenges in an early stage, the methods of Integrated Logistics Support (ILS) are implemented already in the design phase. Thus, it is possible to increase the operational availability while simultaneously reducing the life-cycle costs.

Intelligent rather than Cheap Manufacturing

Intelligent rather than Cheap Manufacturing

Christian Weger
The migration of production sites out of Europe is primarily based on manufacturing costs. Therefore, perfectly functioning communication systems and reliable logistic services are needed. Although the advantage of lower labor costs will decrease in the future, more low-wage countries will be discovered. The answer cannot be found in low-cost production but in an approach which optimizes processes in a holistic way avoiding waste through intelligent solutions.

Available to Promise: On the way to Resilient Supply Chains

Available to Promise: On the way to Resilient Supply Chains

Auf dem Weg zu belastbaren Lieferterminen
Wolf-Rüdiger Bretzke
„Available to Promise“ can be regarded as the core concept of Supply Chain Management. It has become an integer part of modern software tools like SAP/APO and is being implemented in a growing number of companies. The author works out the potentialities and possible limitations of this concept and explains what remains to be done in order to make this risk management approach complete.
