Martin Wollschlaeger

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Martin Wollschlaeger (* 1964 ) is a German engineer and professor of process communication . He is the director of the Institute for Applied Computer Science in the Faculty of Computer Science at the Technical University of Dresden .

Live and act

Martin Wollschlaeger attended a polytechnic high school (POS) from 1970 to 1978 and then an extended high school (EOS), where he graduated from high school in 1982. He then studied at the Technical University Otto-von-Guericke Magdeburg specializing in technical cybernetics (head: Ulrich Korn ). In 1987 he graduated from the Technical Cybernetics and Electrical Engineering (TK / ET) section as a qualified engineer with distinction.

He then worked as a scientific assistant at the Department of Electronics and Circuit Technology. During this time he worked on his dissertation on industrial communication systems . He received his doctorate in 1991 for Doctor of Engineering at the Technical University of Magdeburg. In 2001 he qualified as a Dr.-Ing. habil. in the field of automation technology .

From 2000 to 2003 Wollschlaeger worked in the industry-related area as an employee at the Institute for Automation and Communication eV (ifak) , affiliated institute of the Otto von Guericke University , which was founded in 1991 by Peter Neumann , and was set up in 2005 by his successor Ulrich Jumar was handed over.

Since November 2003 Wollschlaeger has been a university professor at the Computer Science Faculty of the Technical University of Dresden . He was appointed to the professorship for process communication at the Institute for Applied Computer Science (IAI) . At the same time, Wollschlaeger is the director of this institute for applied computer science, to which the professorships for technical information systems ( Klaus Kabitzsch ) and human-computer interaction also belong.

Wollschlaeger has published more than 150 articles in national and international journals and conference proceedings. He is active in various program and organization committees of national and international conferences (such as IEEE ETFA, IEEE WFCS, IEEE INDIN, VDI / GMA Automation, KommA) and as a reviewer for journals (such as IEEE Transactions on Industrial Informatics (TII), Transactions on Industrial Electronics (TIE), Automation Technology Practice (atp)).

Focus in teaching and research

Teaching at the Wollschlaeger Professorship focuses on industrial communication systems , in particular on the modeling, design, configuration, operation and optimization of Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) and Cyber ​​Physical Production Systems (CPPS) for use in Industry 4.0 . Networked, flexible communication systems in manufacturing and process engineering are dealt with, as well as requirement profiles, architecture principles, implementation details and typical fieldbus systems under aspects of real time, engineering and management. Basic architectures of networked automation systems are shown for production controls. For information models of the automation of industrial processes, information flows are considered and Internet applications in an industrial environment are dealt with.

The research topics of the Wollschlaeger team are focused on industrial communication systems and automation networks . This includes field buses and Industrial Ethernet , information modeling, middleware concepts, the management of heterogeneous networks, life cycle management and semantic descriptions. The main aim of this work is to support and improve integration processes in the production processes. Wollschlaeger leads various national and EU-funded research projects or works in them. He and his team are also involved in standardization activities: DKE , PROFIBUS International, ZVEI (Central Association of the Electrical and Electronics Industry ), VDI / VDE-GMA (Measurement and Automation Technology Association ), VDMA (Association of German Mechanical and Plant Engineering). Topics are covered that range from specific communication technologies to Industry 4.0 and the 5G mobile communications standard .
