The Research Center for Information System Design (ITeG) at Kassel University stands for 15 years of successful interdisciplinary IT development. ITeG brings together working groups from different disciplines (computer science, information systems, psychology, human-machine systems engineering, law and sociology).
Advances in the field of artificial intelligence offer new design options for reorganizing knowledge work at the interface between humans and AI. The differences in the abilities and skills of humans and machines create new design challenges that this research project will address. The project is funded by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) with 1.9 million euros. The AI junior research group in Kassel is headed by Dr. Sarah Oeste-Reiß.
With the development of the internet into Web 2.0, social media have become an indispensable part of our private and professional everyday life. Services such as Facebook, Google+, YouTube, Twitter, WhatsApp or platforms for reviews and blogs have gained considerable practical importance and raise numerous legal questions that are often unresolved or evolving.
Chat rooms and working from home - the boundary between the professional and private worlds is becoming increasingly blurred, and privacy is is being challenged by digital technology. Instead of banning technology, researchers at the ITeG are focusing on so-called "nudges": little helpers for smart behavior.
Ambivalent technology – between support or surveillance
Computer scientists and legal scholars from the Research Center for Information System Design at the University of Kassel are conducting research in the interdisciplinary DFG project "NORA" on the recognition and prediction of contexts of mobile collaborative applications in accordance with data protection.
Position Paper. Requirements and design patterns for the legally compliant and quality-oriented design of context-sensitive applications (AnEkA).
At the end of the DFG project "Requirements and design models for the legally compatible and quality-centred design of context-sensitive applications (AnEkA)", the interdisciplinary team of researchers in business informatics and law at the ITeG presented tangible recommendations for action for the design of requirements and design models.
"Fair digital services: Co-valuation in the design of business models in data economy (FAIRDIENSTE)".
In the project "Fair digital services: Co-valuation in the design of business models in data economy (FAIRDIENSTE)", different ways of balancing values in a fair way in the course of business model design are explored using sociological and information systems approaches.
