We are happy to announce that our external PhD student Markus Ullrich successfully defended his PhD thesis "Performance Modelling for Optimized Resource Management and Application Deployment in Cloud Environments" on 10th of February 2022.

We congratulate Markus for his achievement and wish him all the best for his future.

We are very happy and proud to announce, that VSR has successfully reached the final third milestone and completed the IoTxKG project in the context of AI4EU. Within the last six months, our team was working as a solution provider for the KE4WoT challenge, investigating novel AI-driven models for knowledge extraction in the Web of Things domain. We designed a method to identify and represent core concepts which we successfully applied to Ontologies from the Smart Home, Smart Weather, Smart Transportation and Smart Energy domains and validated it with domain experts. Our research has contributed to the advancement of the European AI on Demand platform, AI4EU (https://www.ai4europe.eu/), and our models are available via the AI4EU Experiments marketplace (https://aiexp.ai4europe.eu/#/marketPlace). Stay tuned for further details about our NLP-based clustering models and interactive concept visualizations to be published in 2022.
Congratulations to our IoTxKG team Mahda Noura, Sebastian Heil and Martin Gaedke!

We are very happy and proud to announce, that our paper "WAT: Autonomous Hypermedia-driven Web Agents for Web of Things Devices" was announced as the Challenge winner at the The 20th International Semantic Web Conference in the All The Agents Challenge 2021. Congratulations to our VSR members Mahda Noura, Valentin Siegert and Martin Gaedke!
