Vergangene Research Talks

Prof. Dr. Daniel Schlagwein weilt im HS24 als Gastprofessor der SoM an der HSG. In diesem Zusammenhang bietet er ein Research Seminar zum Thema "Inference to the Best Explanation: 'Sherlock Holmes-Style' Reasoning in Qualitative Research" an, zu dem am Thema interessierte wissenschaftliche Mitarbeitende eingeladen sind. Der Workshop befasst sich mit der (Fehl-)Darstellung und (Un-)Konsistenz von Argumentationsprozessen in Forschungsarbeiten.

Arbeiten von zu Hause aus oder von irgendwo auf der Welt - spätestens seit der Covid-Pandemie hat die Zahl von "globalen Nomaden" stark zugenommen. Welche Chancen und Probleme ergeben sich für die neue Gruppe von Mitarbeitenden selber, welche für die Gesellschaft, für Firmen und Staaten? Prof. Dr. Daniel Schlagwein von der University of Sydney widmet sich in seiner Forschung diesen Themen und stellt die neuesten Erkenntisse vor.

Dr. Niclas Kannengiesser is a postdoctoral researcher with the critical information systems infrastructures research group at the KIT and currently a visiting researcher at the University of Zurich. In his presentation, he will deal with the topic of Automated Machine Learning (AutoML) - a topic that can also be exciting from a business perspective. He will show how practitioners can benefit from AutoML and provide an outlook on decentralized machine learning processes and the role of AutoML in such processes.

Kevin Bauer is Assistant Professor of E-Business and E-Government at the University of Mannheim, and starting in 2025, he will be Professor for Game-Theoretic and Causal AI in Business and Economics at Goethe University Frankfurt. In his talk, Kevin Bauer presents the findings of a paper that explores whether Explainable AI (XAI) can improve human metaknowledge and thereby enhance delegation efficiency in human-AI collaborations.

Prof. Dr. Roman Rietsche is Professor for Information Systems and AI at the Berner Fachhochschule. Previously he was part of the IWI-Team as a Research Assistant, Postdoc and Project Manager. In his research talk he presents the results of a controlled laboratory experiment investigating the exchange of information in cyber-physical spaces, such as the Metaverse.

Isabel Fischer is an Associate Professor (Reader) of Responsible Digital Innovation and Education at the University of Warwick in the UK. In her Research Talk she explores the use of Action Design Research (ADR) to develop an in-house AI-based formative feedback tool over four iterative cycles between 2019 and 2024.

The rapid development of digital technologies requires the renewal of fundamental IT infrastructures to maintain competitiveness. In her research, Edona Elshan analyses the integration of low-code development platforms (LCDPs) into existing IT landscapes and addresses the various obstacles.

Thomas Hess is Full Professor of Information Systems and Management at the LMU Munich School of Management and director of the Institute for Digital Management and New Media. His research focuses on the potential of digital technologies for the value creation and the management structure of companies. In his research talk, he presents the results of an interpretative case study, on the basis of which the process of digital change of a European media group was analyzed.
