Key Note Speech

Title: Research and the City: An Experience Report on Launching the Smart City Research Lab Bamberg

Abstract: This keynote reports practical experiences and future challenges from several years of smart city related research and the process of creating an interdisciplinary research network within the University of Bamberg, the Smart City Research Lab. The goal is to support the City of Bamberg on its journey and to provide an environment to validate research ideas in real-world installations and with users who are not just our own students.

Speaker Bio: Since 2014, Daniela Nicklas is full professor at the University of Bamberg, Germany, and holds the Chair of Mobile Systems. Before that, she was a Junior professor for database and internet technologies at the Universität Oldenburg and member of the Member of Executive Board in the Transportation division at the OFFIS institute for computer science. She came there from a PostDoc position at the Universität Stuttgart (2006-2008) where she also obtained her PhD in 2005, working on the integration of large-scale spatial context models for mobile applications.

Her research interests are computer systems that bridge the gap between the physical world and the digital world. She focuses on the continuous management of data from sensors and other active data sources and their incorporation in so-called context-aware applications. Currently, she works on data stream management technologies. She applies these technologies to the domains of smart cities, precision farming, pervasive computing, and situational awareness in general. In 2009, she received the IBM Exploratory Stream Analytics Innovation Award for „Data Stream Technology for Future Energy Grid Control“. Together with Prof. Dr. Marc Redepenning and Prof. Dr. Astrid Schütz, she manages the Smart City Research Lab Bamberg. She is a member of many programme committees and organizing committees of pervasive computing and database conferences and workshops (e.g., PerCom, MDM, BTW, ...), a member of the editorial board of the Datenbankspektrum (German Journal on Databases) and the board of the German Society for Computer Science (GI).
