DFKI was founded in 1988 as a non-profit public-private partnership (PPP). It maintains locations in Kaiserslautern, Saarbrücken, Bremen, a project office in Berlin, a laboratory in Lower Saxony and branch offices in St. Wendel and Trier. DFKI is Germany's leading business-oriented research institution in the field of innovative software technologies based on artificial intelligence methods.
SmartHybrid
As a practice partner of the "SmartHybrid" innovation network, we support medium-sized companies in digital transformation - scientifically neutral and based on the latest IT trends. Digital technologies such as the Internet of Things or Virtual & Augmented Reality are of central importance for research. Their integration into business processes allows new digital services to be developed for many types of products.
University of Osnabrück
Together with the University of Osnabrück and other partners, we are developing a new cloud solution for the agricultural and food industry as a part of the Agri-Gaia project. As a cross-manufacturer infrastructure with AI elements, Agri-Gaia enables efficient data exchange in agriculture.
Furthermore, we have already been able to accompany numerous students in their practical phase and subsequent practical thesis and support them in their start into professional life in cooperation with the University of Osnabrück.
University of Applied Sciences
In addition to a cooperation of the university, there has been a cooperation with the universities of the region for years. Numerous research projects and events, such as the GDCR, complete our cooperation.
Students from the Osnabrück University of Applied Sciences are also welcome to join us. Together we find suitable topics for the practical phase and final thesis. We are proud that many graduates subsequently become permanent team members of our LMIS and thus have an ideal start to their careers.
THGA Bochum
In the heart of Bochum lies the city's oldest university, where the first students completed their training for the mining industry as early as 1816. Today, the THGA continues to develop the legacy of its industrial roots in a future-oriented manner and provides students with the know-how to solve the engineering challenges of tomorrow and the day after tomorrow in its application-oriented degree programs. Teaching and research at the THGA are optimally aligned with the requirements in industry - whether in the energy sector, in the sustainable use of raw materials or in industrial production.
RWTH Aachen
RWTH offers competence, research and practice-oriented studies with the aim of preparing students to become highly qualified and leaders in society, business and science. There are currently 47,000 students enrolled in 150 degree programs, including more than 12,477 international students from over 138 countries. National rankings and international assessments attest to RWTH graduates' strong ability to master complex tasks, to solve problems constructively in teamwork, and to take on leadership tasks.
The Bulgarian Academy of Sciences
The Bulgarian Academy of Sciences is the leading scientific center in Bulgaria (BAS). 25 scientists from the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences (BAS) are among the top 2% of top scientists in the world, according to a ranking by Stanford University. Scientific and applied research is implemented in the Academy in nine departments covering all areas of human knowledge. We conduct PhD programs / doctoral programs in cooperation with the BAS and the European Polytechnical University and offer lectures to promote international exchange.
European Polytechnical University
Established in 2010, the European Polytechnical University (EPU) is a private engineering university located in the Bulgarian city of Pernik. The EPU is characterized by the dynamic combination of contemporary tuition, scientific research activities, and academic and business innovationprojects. In cooperation with the EPU and the the Bulgarian Academy of Science, our LMIS AG conducts PhD programs / doctoral programs and offers lectures to promote international exchange.
THE LMIS RESEARCH TEAM
Shaping the digital future.
This is our claim, with which we pursue the goal of efficiently implementing research projects in order to derive IT products and projects that will change our future sustainably. This is the self-image of all LMIS colleagues and the greater task of our research and development department.
This department consists not only of our experts who hold doctorates and contribute to the German research landscape through their regular publications.
In addition to our colleagues, who are passionate about their focus topics, we also always employ students who either support us during their studies or enrich our know-how with their theses. After their graduation, we transfer our students to the specialist departments and thus always integrate the latest findings into our knowledge pool.
What makes us unique is our passion for cutting edge technologies and up-to-date knowledge. From our students to our CEO & Founder, who did his PhD in the context of AI and continues to research.
OUR LATEST GAIA-X PROJECT
We are currently involved in the European cloud project Gaia-X, which is dedicated to building a networked, open data infrastructure based on European values. Gaia-X is designed to secure Europe's independence and innovative ability by means of digital sovereignty. Until now, there have been few alternatives to the major cloud providers for companies driving digitization in Germany. These hyperscalers are headquartered in jurisdictions that are in some cases not compliant with the DSGVO, which means that the infrastructure does not fully meet the requirements of European companies. Moreover, if in-house developed applications and innovations, business-critical enterprise software or personal data are located in these clouds, this not only raises data protection issues.
The Gaia-X project was created through an initiative of the German federal government and today it brings together representatives of over 300 organizations from many countries. It is considered as one of the most important political and technological projects in Europe and is therefore experiencing an enormous boost. With Gaia-X, an important element for the further digitalization of many areas of life can be created. Only if it is possible to turn data into information, through trustworthy technologies, can the potential of digital transformation be fully exhausted. To achieve this, however, all participants must have full control over their data at any time. Within the project, we are developing concrete use cases and application scenarios in order to implement new business models for companies using artificial intelligence on the Gaia-X platform.
A next generation European data infrastructure
Agri-Gaia is designed as a decentralised infrastructure for the exchange of data and algorithms in agriculture. Gaia-X is used as a basic infrastructure, for example to realise identity management and semantic description of services and data.
Gaia-X builds on Europe's proven strengths. These include the diversity of services as well as strong medium-sized and decentralised structures. In this way, the numerous investments in digital technologies spread across Europe will be linked and have a greater impact.
