Thomas Siepmann
Thomas Siepmann (* 1958 in Essen ) is a German computer scientist and professor at the Aachen University of Applied Sciences with a research focus on application lifecycle management (ALM) and organization of software development.
Services
Thomas Siepmann studied mechanical engineering at the Ruhr University Bochum and obtained his doctorate in engineering. at the Institute for Construction Technology as an employee of Friedrich Jarchow. For his dissertation on the subject of frictional torques in cylindrical roller bearings for planetary gears , he was awarded the highly endowed FAG Kugelfischer Prize in 1988. His research made it possible to use the unsteady elastohydrodynamic lubrication theory to theoretically describe the friction conditions of any accelerated rolling bearings and thus make them numerically evaluable. The RLSI software system developed for this made the complex interactions in the lubrication gaps between rolling elements , raceways and cage visible for the first time . A computer animation integrated into the system illustrated, confirmed and explained many findings that have so far only been empirically obtained in industrial practice and showed their causes.
Industrial activity
After completing his doctorate, he worked as a software developer, management consultant and IT service provider to implement solutions for companies in various sectors in industry and trade. He went through all management levels from project manager to managing director. At the Krupp Research Institute in Essen, he was a member of the Artificial Intelligence and Expert Systems research team, responsible for the development and use of knowledge-based systems in industrial practice. Between 1994 and 2003 he was in charge of standard software development in a software company, the service management area of a large IT service provider and was the managing director of an IT management consultancy.
Research and Teaching
Since 2003 he has been a professor at the FH Aachen. There he teaches and researches in the field of application lifecycle management with a focus on "leadership in the IT environment". The subject of investigation is the development team as a cybernetic system .
