关于客户
htw saar (University of Applied Sciences, Saarland) is a research-based and application-oriented university in Germany. Students have been able to enroll in computer science since 1984, while the first bachelor’s program, computer science and communication, was introduced in 2001. The university offers around 45 different bachelor’s and master’s programs. The university currently has approximately 130 active professors. In particular, Professor Dr. André Miede uses the package in the “Business Computing” module for students in the master’s programs for applied informatics and computer science and communication. The goal of the module is to teach students how to design, analyze and optimize business processes. Students also learn about the correlation between organizational structures of a company and the relevant IT infrastructure in the enterprise architecture context.
挑战
The digitalization of everyday life is becoming increasingly prevalent, with big data, cloud, mobile access, social and security issues becoming more intertwined and having a significant impact on business and society. This has forced companies to drastically reconsider and transform their processes. The University of Applied Sciences, Saarland (htw saar) recognized the need to prepare their students for this digital era. They wanted to provide their students with a comprehensive overview of current processes within companies and teach them how to best transform these for the digital era. They also wanted to provide real-life problems that students will encounter in their professional career, that students learn to solve using market-leading software.
解决方案
Software AG offered an educational solution tailored to meet the university’s wish for an encompassing Business Process Management (BPM) lecture package, the ARIS Education Package (AEP). The AEP provides key ARIS products to design, analyze, simulate and optimize business processes. Depending on the objective and the focus of the curriculum and courses, the students are able to practice on information modeling, business process modeling and process optimization in a preconfigured scenario. In the lectures, they work with the processes of the United Motor Group, a fictional global car manufacturer. This comprehensive scenario is used to teach the different aspects of business process analysis and transformation. The packages are divided into exercise blocks of approximately 90 minutes. Not only can ARIS be installed in university computer labs, but students can also download the software from the ARIS Community onto their personal computers.

IoT platform Enables Safety Solutions for U.S. School Districts
Designed to alert drivers when schoolchildren are present, especially in low-visibility conditions, school-zone flasher signals are typically updated manually at each school. The switching is based on the school calendar and manually changed when an unexpected early dismissal occurs, as in the case of a weather-event altering the normal schedule. The process to reprogram the flashers requires a significant effort by school district personnel to implement due to the large number of warning flashers installed across an entire school district.

Revolutionizing Medical Training in India: GSL Smart Lab and the LAP Mentor
The GSL SMART Lab, a collective effort of the GSL College of Medicine and the GSL College of Nursing and Health Science, was facing a challenge in providing superior training to healthcare professionals. As clinical medicine was becoming more focused on patient safety and quality of care, the need for medical simulation to bridge the educational gap between the classroom and the clinical environment was becoming increasingly apparent. Dr. Sandeep Ganni, the director of the GSL SMART Lab, envisioned a world-class surgical and medical training center where physicians and healthcare professionals could learn skills through simulation training. He was looking for different simulators for different specialties to provide both basic and advanced simulation training. For laparoscopic surgery, he was interested in a high fidelity simulator that could provide basic surgical and suturing skills training for international accreditation as well as specific hands-on training in complex laparoscopic procedures for practicing physicians in India.

Implementing Robotic Surgery Training Simulator for Enhanced Surgical Proficiency
Fundacio Puigvert, a leading European medical center specializing in Urology, Nephrology, and Andrology, faced a significant challenge in training its surgical residents. The institution recognized the need for a more standardized and comprehensive training curriculum, particularly in the area of robotic surgery. The challenge was underscored by two independent studies showing that less than 5% of residents in Italian and German residency programs could perform major or complex procedures by the end of their residency. The institution sought to establish a virtual reality simulation lab that would include endourological, laparoscopic, and robotic platforms. However, they needed a simulator that could replicate both the hardware and software of the robotic Da Vinci console used in the operating room, without being connected to the actual physical console. They also required a system that could provide both basic and advanced simulation training, and a metrics system to assess the proficiency of the trainees before they performed surgical procedures in the operating theater.

Edinburgh Napier University streamlines long-distance learning with Cisco WebEX
• Geographically dispersed campus made in-person meetings costly and inconvenient.• Distance-learning programs in Malaysia, India, and China required dependable, user-friendly online tools to maximize interaction in collaborative workspaces.• Virtual learning environment required a separate sign-in process, resulting in a significant administrative burden for IT staff and limited adoption of collaboration technology.

8x increased productivity with VKS
Before VKS, a teacher would spend a lot of time showing a group of 22 students how to build a set of stairs within a semester of 120 hours. Along with not leaving the teacher much time to provide one-on-one support for each student to properly learn carpentry, it also left a considerable amount of room for error. Key information would be misinterpreted or lost as the class was taught in the typical show-and-tell way.

Scalable IoT Empowering GreenFlex's Sustainable Growth
GreenFlex, a company that supports sustainable development, decarbonization, and energy efficiency, faced several challenges in its quest to expand its business. The company needed to deploy a robust and sustainable IoT technology to support its growth. It was crucial for them to monitor and control devices at customer sites in a safe and reliable manner. They also needed to integrate devices across a range of communication protocols and gather and act on data to meet efficiency targets. GreenFlex had previously built IoT capabilities into its digital platform, GreenFlexIQ, to monitor and manage customer sites remotely. However, they soon realized that they needed a new platform to support their ambitions. They needed a platform that could scale to connect more devices for production management and make it easier for the operations team to manage devices in the field.
