A kind of next generation systems, those cyber-physical production systems (CPPS) are able to raise the level of autonomy of its production components. To find the optimal degree of autonomy in a given context, a research approach is formulated using a simulation concept. Based on requirements and assumptions, a cyber-physical market is modeled and qualitative hypotheses are formulated, which will be verified with the help of the CPPS of a hybrid simulation environment.}, language = {en} } @incollection{GrumKotarskiAmbrosetal.2021, author = {Grum, Marcus and Kotarski, David and Ambros, Maximilian and Biru, Tibebu and Krallmann, Hermann and Gronau, Norbert}, title = {Managing knowledge of intelligent systems}, series = {Business modeling and software design : 11th International Symposium, BMSD 2021, Sofia, Bulgaria, July 5-7, 2021, Proceedings}, volume = {422}, booktitle = {Business modeling and software design : 11th International Symposium, BMSD 2021, Sofia, Bulgaria, July 5-7, 2021, Proceedings}, editor = {Shishkov, Boris}, publisher = {Springer International Publishing}, address = {Cham}, isbn = {978-3-030-79975-5}, doi = {10.1007/978-3-030-79976-2_5}, pages = {78 -- 96}, year = {2021}, abstract = {Since more and more business tasks are enabled by Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based techniques, the number of knowledge-intensive tasks increase as trivial tasks can be automated and non-trivial tasks demand human-machine interactions. With this, challenges regarding the management of knowledge workers and machines rise [9]. Furthermore, knowledge workers experience time pressure, which can lead to a decrease in output quality. Artificial Intelligence-based systems (AIS) have the potential to assist human workers in knowledge-intensive work. By providing a domain-specific language, contextual and situational awareness as well as their process embedding can be specified, which enables the management of human and AIS to ease knowledge transfer in a way that process time, cost and quality are improved significantly.

Since the number of knowledge-intensive processes is increasing more and more nowadays, the efficient design of knowledge transfers at business processes as well as the target-oriented improvement of them is essential, so that process outcomes satisfy high quality criteria and economic requirements. This particularly challenges knowledge management, aiming for the assignment of ideal manifestations of influence factors on knowledge transfers to a certain task. Faced with first attempts of knowledge transfer-based process improvements [1], this paper continues research about the quantitative examination of knowledge transfers and presents a ready-to-go experiment design that is able to examine quality of knowledge transfers empirically and is suitable to examine knowledge transfers on a quantitative level. Its use is proven by the example of four influence factors, which namely are stickiness, complexity, competence and time pressure.}, language = {en} } @incollection{GrumGronau2020, author = {Grum, Marcus and Gronau, Norbert}, title = {Adaptable knowledge-driven information systems improving knowledge transfers}, series = {Business modeling and software design : 10th International Symposium, BMSD 2020, Berlin, Germany, July 6-8, 2020, Proceedings}, volume = {391}, booktitle = {Business modeling and software design : 10th International Symposium, BMSD 2020, Berlin, Germany, July 6-8, 2020, Proceedings}, editor = {Shishkov, Boris}, publisher = {Springer International Publishing}, address = {Cham}, isbn = {978-3-030-52305-3}, doi = {10.1007/978-3-030-52306-0_13}, pages = {202 -- 220}, year = {2020}, abstract = {A growing number of business processes can be characterized as knowledge-intensive. The ability to speed up the transfer of knowledge between any kind of knowledge carriers in business processes with AR techniques can lead to a huge competitive advantage, for instance in manufacturing. This includes the transfer of person-bound knowledge as well as externalized knowledge of physical and virtual objects. The contribution builds on a time-dependent knowledge transfer model and conceptualizes an adaptable, AR-based application. Having the intention to accelerate the speed of knowledge transfers between a manufacturer and an information system, empirical results of an experimentation show the validity of this approach. For the first time, it will be possible to discover how to improve the transfer among knowledge carriers of an organization with knowledge-driven information systems (KDIS).
