ABSTRACT
The QI-Digital initiative, consisting of BAM, DAkkS, DIN, DKE, and PTB, develops smart tools for a data-based quality infrastructure (QI) together with partners from other QI institutions as well as industry and academia, enabling new types of quality assurance, easing bureaucracy and unlocking significant savings. This session shall give the consortium the opportunity to present its results from the last four years of intensive work in three dedicated pilot projects and beyond to the international metrology community. It will also feature presentations from the international community working on related digitalisation projects. One of the goals is to gather the worldwide development status in the digital transformation of the QI and support the compilation of a corresponding roadmap for the coming 5-10 years.
TOPICS
- Metrology for the digital QI
- Digital QI tools and procedures for a smart quality assurance
- Digital QI ecosystem concepts and implementations
- Use Cases and concepts for the use of data spaces and other de-central technologies for a digital QI
- AI and QI
ABOUT THE ORGANIZERS
Dr. Jens Niederhausen is subject specialist for the subject area digitization of the quality infrastructure in the department Metrology for the digital transformation at the Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt (PTB) in Berlin. He coordinate's PTB's activities in the QI-Digital initiative. Previously he studied physics at the University of Bonn and received his PhD in experimental physics from the HU Berlin. Afterwards, he was a postdoc at the Helmholtz Center Berlin for Materials and Energy for 5 years.
Within the department for Metrology for Digital Transformation at Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt (PTB) Dr. Catharina Kulka-Peschke has supported the development of the internal digital workflow. She further focuses on International Cooperations, supporting partner QI organizations with their digital transformation activities to jointly advance towards a digital QI. Catharina participates as coach in the Metrology for Digital Transformation project (M4DT-IC), supports organizations from different world regions with digital process management to bring together people and digital solutions, and volunteers as preliminary convener of the sub-committee e Learning in the OIML Digitalisation Task Group (DTG).
Alexander Kammeyer is a research associate at the Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt (PTB). He holds a M.Sc. in Computer Science. His areas of interest include metrological processes in the digital QI and Digital Twins.
