Hello
From January 22-23, 2020, a meeting of the German consortium for the SPEAR research project took place at let's dev in Karlsruhe. Participants included partners from EKS InTec, Reeb-Engineering, TWT, and the universities of Berlin, Bochum, and Paderborn.
The participating partners from research and industry used the appointment for a joint exchange between different work packages and for the further development of the demonstrator. In several workshops, the current status as well as the upcoming tasks were discussed and subsequently the results were presented to the entire consortium. The two days were also used to summarize the latest findings for the international project consortium and to initiate the next steps for successful project completion. initiated.
There was also a small supporting program: In the afternoon of the first day, a guided tour of the grounds of the Alter Schlachthof creative park was on the agenda. This gave the participants an insight into the history of the creative park, which is also home to the let's dev headquarters. The participants then rounded off the day with a joint dinner.
As part of the SPEAR (Smart Prognosis of Energy with Allocation of Resources) research project, a flexible optimization platform is being developed as a web-based cloud, which will make it possible to improve the energy consumption of industrial production processes. In addition to the energy optimization of production processes, production lines and buildings, already in the development phase, the optimization of existing plants is also a focus of the project.
The project is part of the cluster program of the European research initiative EUREKA. ITEA 3 aims to strengthen the European position in the field of embedded software-intensive systems and to bundle the potentials in industry and research from the participating countries. The program also supports the projects that support Europe's position in worldwide standardization in the field of software-intensive systems and services. SPEAR is funded by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF).
let's dev as a service provider for custom software, is head of the work package of the optimization platform and responsible for the development of the web-based cloud application. As a partner for product development, user experience design, as well as web, backend and cloud development, we were able to make optimal use of our core competencies here. In the process, the optimization platform creates an application tailored to the user, which also meets the many technical and functional requirements and uses the latest technologies.
