Profile: Andreas P. Schmidt
As of March 2012, I have been appointed professor for enterprise social media and mobile business at Karlsruhe University of Applied Sciences, and I am now involved in bachelor and master courses for computer science and business information systems as well as applied research projects.
After completing my studies in computer science at the University of Karlsruhe (Germany), I was working as a researcher at the FZI Research Center for Information Technologies in Karlsruhe. In CoastBase, a European integration project for building a warehouse for coastal data and information, I was responsible for coordinating the technical implementation. Within the project Learning in Process where I was leading the scientific activities, I have developed a competency-oriented methodology for supporting work-integrated learning on demand (for more information see professional-learning.eu) and a technical infrastructure for user context management and context-aware services. In subsequent industrial projects (one of them by order of SAP), we have been transferring the research results into industrial practice.
Afterward, I was technical coordinator the project Im Wissensnetz (In the Knowledge Web), which tried to develop the methodology into the direction of more informal learning processes in emerging domains and to incorporate social awareness. Furthermore, I was coordinating FZI's activities in the EU project (eInclusion call) AGENT-DYSL aiming at an intelligent adaptive reading environment for dyslectic students.
Since spring 2008, I have been scientific coordinator of the FP7 IP MATURE,
which builds upon the the knowledge maturing model I have developed as a bridge between e-learning
and knowledge management.
Furthermore, I have also been involved in two Ambient-Assisted Living projects: SOPRANO, UniversAAL, and myUI. In this context, I have co-initiated the open source ambient middleware project openAAL.
Starting September 2005, I was coordinating the team activities of Professor Lockemann as a department manager within the research division Information Process Engineering and I was responsible for the competence area Knowledge and Learning where I have acquired over three million Euro research grants and funding. At the same time, I have been assistant lecturer at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology with a lecture on Information Integration and Web Portals.
In addition to that, I am interested in Martin Buber and his philosophical and theological works and I take care of the Martin Buber Web Pages.
