The Carneades argumentation system is a web-based collaborative software system for the (re-)construction, evaluation, visualization and interchange of arguments.

FOKUS investigates and develops autonomic systems. Within the CASCADAS project, its three main fields of interest are: dynamic online feedback and control loops for cooperating autonomic communication elements (ACE), the ACE component model, and a distributed testbed for validation of research results.

To maintain the European leading edge position in the transportation as well as automation market, CESAR aims to boost cost efficiency of embedded systems development and safety processes by an order of magnitude.

The 5G-PPP CogNet project will bring advanced Machine Learning concepts and apply these in the domain of Network Management for 5G with the core objective of using the available network and environmental data to improve the operational efficiency of the network and enable the scale and QoS expected in 5G.

In a joint project of several Fraunhofer Institutes, an interoperable learning infrastructure will be created. The main component of this infrastructure is the Common Learning Middleware (CLM), which is based on open specifications and standardized interfaces and which can be used in various Learning Management Systems. The CLM will initially be developed for the creation of a joint Fraunhofer LMS (“Fraunhofer Learning Portal”) and will subsequently also be made available to third-party providers and potential licensees. This makes the development of learning technologies much more efficient.
