Improving healthcare, relieving the burden on medical professionals and advancing research in Germany: These are the goals of the three-year research project “FHIR-Starter” starting in February 2025. The project focuses on the development of a software service that is able to automatically structure medical data using large language models (LLMs). To this end, the Fraunhofer Institute for Experimental Software Engineering IESE is cooperating with Prof. Sylvia Thun's working group at the Berlin Institute for Health Research at Charité and the AI company Insiders Technologies from Kaiserslautern. Fraunhofer IESE is the consortium leader. The project is being funded by the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy as part of the “Generative AI for SMEs” innovation competition with 1.64 million euros.

more infoKaiserslautern/Landau, 12.02.2025 - Artificial intelligence can unlock optimization potential in production - for example in production planning, quality control or in terms of resource efficiency. Nevertheless, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in particular are reluctant to introduce it. The Chair of Production Engineering and Industrial Organization (FBK) at RPTU, together with the Fraunhofer Institutes for Experimental Software Engineering IESE and Industrial Mathematics ITWM and the German Research Center for Artificial Intelligence (DFKI), wants to change this: The researchers are now looking for manufacturing SMEs for an AI potential analysis including the implementation of selected use cases.
more infoWith the ongoing migration to the cloud, the need for corresponding security solutions is also increasing. Fraunhofer IESE has stood for IT security and data sovereignty for digital ecosystems for over 20 years. In cooperation with Worms University of Applied Sciences, the “Secure Cloud Computing” learning lab has now been launched, which not only offers comprehensive know-how for cloud DevOps, cloud users and middle management of cloud solution providers. It is also characterized by a unique combination of learning opportunities, cloud infrastructure, defense and attack labs.
more infoYesterday, the official opening of Fraunhofer IESE's BaSys Roadshow took place on the HTW campus in Berlin, followed by a Kick-Off Event. More than 50 representatives from business, science and politics had the opportunity to experience the Eclipse BaSyx middleware in practical use in various Industry 4.0 use cases. Among others, HTW Berlin and the companies Schneider Electric and EAW presented how they use the potential of BaSyx. At the subsequent Kick-off Event, participants were able to engage in intensive discussions with users and the Industry 4.0 experts from Fraunhofer IESE at the roadshow exhibition.
more infoKaiserslautern, June 11, 2024 – In a unique collaboration, the Fraunhofer Institute for Experimental Software Engineering IESE, the Fraunhofer Institute for Cognitive Systems IKS, and the University of York with the Assuring Autonomy International Programme (AAIP) have developed new safety standards for autonomous systems – with a focus on autonomous driving – in the research project ICON “LOPAAS” (Layers of Protection Architecture for Autonomous Systems). After three years of research, the closing event of the project took place today at Fraunhofer IESE in Kaiserslautern.
more infoWith long waiting lists, significant journey times, an ever-shrinking number of doctor’s practices and the aging population, medical care services in sparsely populated regions are under mounting pressure. As part of its Neighborhood Diagnostics project, the Fraunhofer Center for Digital Diagnostics ZDD® is working to develop a digital ecosystem for delivering patient treatment close to where they live in order to ensure that people in rural areas can access highquality medical care despite the shortage of doctors. One of the digital ecosystem’s key features are its decentralized health stations, which are tailored to local needs and feature fully automated labs that will ensure medical tests and diagnoses can be provided round the clock. The project will be on display at the joint Fraunhofer booth (Hall 3, Booth E74) at the MEDICA trade show in Düsseldorf from November 13 to 16, 2023.

more infoFraunhofer IESE is proud to be part of the European project EcoMobility, which had its official kick-off on May 24th, 2023. The kick-off was a 2-day event hosted in Vienna, Austria, by the coordinator TTTech Auto AG, a global company that provides solutions for the challenges of future vehicle generations. In the project, Fraunhofer IESE will contribute to assuring the safety of connected and automated mobility solutions by developing a collaborative dynamic risk management approach.
more infoThe consortium project “DiCoMa” (Digital Construction Management) ended on 30 April 2023. The aim of the project was to evaluate and advance the progress of digitalization in the construction industry. On the one hand, an interview study aimed at gaining in-depth insights into the state of digitalization and networking in the construction industry in general and the infrastructure measures sector in particular was conducted for this purpose. On the other hand, the concepts and functionalities developed in the predecessor project “Infra-Bau 4.0” were evaluated with potential users. From the results, the research team derived recommendations for action for the digitalization of small and medium-sized enterprises in the construction industry.
more infoLaunched in Paris, on October 4, AgriDataSpace will coordinate a preparatory action to pave the way for the European data space for agriculture. The project, coordinated by Agdatahub, aims to facilitate data exchange, processing, and analysis in a secured, trusted, transparent and responsible manner to create new opportunities for monitoring and optimising natural resource use, stimulating data-driven innovations. Fraunhofer IESE is taking on the role of Technical Manager for the overall project. A particular focus will be on the coordination and harmonization of the technical architecture of data spaces for agriculture. In addition, IESE will be in charge of creating the “Technology Canvas”, a public report on data, models, and interoperability solutions as technological enablers for the implementation of data spaces for agriculture.
