Der vorliegende Beitrag stellt das Konzept eines Flipped Classroom-Ansatzes für die Lehrveranstaltung „Grundlagen der Wirtschaft und finanziellen Unternehmensführung“ im Masterstudiengang Wirtschaftsinformatik der Fachhochschule Vorarlberg vor. Es werden die Rahmenbedingungen der Lehrveranstaltung erläutert und die didaktischen Überlegungen sowie Zielsetzungen diskutiert. Besonderes Augenmerk wird auf die Vorteile des Blended Learning sowie die Bedeutung von Feedback gelegt. Anschließend werden die Inhalte, der Aufbau sowie die verwendeten Materialien und Tools beschrieben. Es wird gesondert auf den Feedbackprozess eingegangen. Abschließend erfolgt eine Bewertung des Lehrveranstaltungskonzepts anhand der Dimensionen technischer Ablauf, Engagement der Studierenden, Klausurerfolg und Lehrveranstaltungsevaluation. Auf dieser Basis werden mögliche Verbesserungen für die Zukunft abgeleitet. Insgesamt wird deutlich, dass der Flipped Classroom-Ansatz eine effektive Methode ist, die mit Standardtools umgesetzt werden kann und die den Lernerfolg und die Zufriedenheit der Studierenden fördert.
Digital twin as enabler of business model innovation for infrastructure construction projects
(2023)
Emerging technologies and methods are becoming an important element of the construction industry. Digital Twins are used as a base to store data in BIM models and make use out of the data respectively make the data visible. The transparency in all phases of the lifecycle of building and infrastructure assets is crucial in order to get a more efficient lifecycle of planning, construction and maintenance. Whereas other industries increased performance in these phases by making use out of the data, construction industry is stuck in traditional methods and business models. In this paper we propose a concept that focuses on the digital production twin. The comparison of planning data with As-Is production data can empower a data driven continuous improvement process and support the decision making process of future innovations and suitable business models. This paper outlines the possibility to use the data stored in a digital twin with regards to the evaluation of possible business models.
Through mandatory ESG (environmental, social, governance) reporting large companies must disclose their ESG activities showing how sustainability risks are incorporated in their decision-making and production processes. This disclosure obligation, however, does not apply to small and medium-sized enterprises (SME), creating a gap in the ESG dataset. Banks are therefore required to collect sustainability data of their SME customers independently to ensure complete ESG integration in the risk analysis process for loans. In this paper, we examine ESG risk analysis through a smart science approach laying the focus on possible value outcomes of sustainable smart services for banks as well as for their (SME) customers. The paper describes ESG factors, how services can be derived from them, targeted metrics of ESG and an ESG Service Creation Framework (business ecosystem building, process model, and value creation). The description of an exemplary use case highlighting the necessary ecosystem for service creation as well as the created value concludes the paper.
The role of entrepreneurs and intrapreneurs in the current zeitgeist is to drive innovation, re-shape rigid, established processes in business as well as for consumers. They use new viewpoints to pioneer new (business) models which focus on ‘smartness’ rather than the purely monetary and short-sighted models of yesteryear. Fostering and supporting the culture of this current zeitgeist is a mayor challenge for entre- and intrapreneurial support infrastructures, namely startup centres and innovation hubs of universities and other public institutions as well as innovation centres of private companies. Hereby, support may range from access to funding over provision of resources such as offices or computing hardware to coaching in the development of business ideas and strategic roadmaps for product and service deployment. In this paper, we focus on describing the status-quo of afore- mentioned support infrastructures in Vorarlberg and the Lake Constance region, then extend the scope to existing (international) approaches for aiding founders and inno- vators in the development of smart services. An analysis of success stories of the Vorarlberg startup centre ‘startupstube’ and other initiatives including their compar- ison to international counterparts builds the basis for a methodological framework for (service science) coaching in entre- and intrapreneurial support infrastructures. The paper is concluded by the description of a framework for choosing the right methods and tools to create service value in entre-/intrapreneurship based upon tested, proven know-how and for defining support infrastructure needs based upon pre-defined stakeholder and target groups as well as the (industry) sectors of the innovators.
In this paper, a 256-channel, 10-GHz arrayed waveguide gratings demultiplexer for ultra-dense wavelength division multiplexing was designed using an in-house developed tool called AWG-Parameters. The AWG demultiplexer was designed for a central wavelength of 1550 nm and the structure was simulated in PHASAR tool from Optiwave. Two different AWG designs were developed and the influence of the design parameters on the AWG performance was studied.
Design, simulation, and optimization of the 1×4 optical three-dimensional multimode interference splitter using IP-Dip polymer as a core and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) Sylgard 184 as a cladding is demonstrated. The splitter was simulated by using beam propagation method in BeamPROP simulation module of RSoft photonic tool and optimized for an operating wavelength of 1.55 μm . According to the minimum insertion loss, the dimensions of the splitter were optimized for a waveguide with a core size of 4×4 μm2 . The objective of the study is to create the design for fabrication by three-dimensional direct laser writing optical lithography.
