    Challenges, opportunities and application fields of quantum computing - an introductory overview
    (Association Information et Management, 2022) Kech, Benjamin; Schneider, Bettina; Gachnang, Phillip; Azan, Wilfrid
    This paper elaborates on the technology of quantum computing. It is aimed at people new to this field and introduces characteristics of quantum computing along with comparisons to classical computing. Furthermore, the paper describes the challenges and opportunities of quantum computing. In addition, applications have been explored where quantum computing could create value for businesses. The findings include three categories. First, quantum computing might make a difference in simulating nature, which was also the initial idea that led to the invention of quantum computing. Second, quantum computing could benefit the category of machine learning. Last, optimization problems will take advantage of quantum computing. It is concluded that quantum computing is still in its early stages and there are many challenges to overcome ‚ in particular the challenge of error correction. To gain in the foreseeable future from the advantages that quantum computing pledges, more advances in research have to be made to have a fault-tolerant system. A fault-tolerant quantum computer is a promising technology that could create significant value for various branches, such as finance.

    Real World Data - Technologies, Research Questions and Applications - Study in Cooperation - School of Business & School of Life Science
    (Fachhochschule Nordwestschweiz FHNW, 2019) Grimberg, Frank; Asprion, Petra; Schneider, Bettina; Miho, Enkelejda; Babrak, Lmar; Habbabeh, Ali
    In this research report of the University of Applied Sciences and Arts Northwestern Switzerland (FHNW), a classification of ‘Real World Data’ into the research landscape takes place. In addition, an identification of the still open research questions is done based on the fundamental principles and properties. The manifold potential of this relatively new data set is illustrated by a presentation of the already existing but also conceivable future application possibilities. Finally, the contribution of the FHNW, based on its specific competencies, to the further application of the dataset is shown.

    Human-centered artificial intelligence: a multidimensional approach towards real world evidence
    (2019) Schneider, Bettina; Asprion, Petra; Grimberg, Frank; Filipe, Joaquim; Smialek, Michal; Brodsky, Alexander; Hammoudi, Slimane
    This study indicates the significance of a human-centered perspective in the analysis and interpretation of Real World Data. As an exemplary use-case, the construct of perceived ‘Health-related Quality of Life’ is chosen to show, firstly, the significance of Real World Data and, secondly, the associated ‘Real World Evidence’. We settled on an iterative methodology and used hermeneutics for a detailed literature analysis to outline the relevance and the need for a forward-thinking approach to deal with Real World Evidence in the life science and health care industry. The novelty of the study is its focus on a human-centered artificial intelligence, which can be achieved by using ‘System Dynamics’ modelling techniques. The outcome – a human-centered ‘Indicator Set’ can be combined with results from data-driven, AI-based analytics. With this multidimensional approach, human intelligence and artificial intelligence can be intertwined towards an enriched Real World Evidence. The developed approach considers three perspectives – the elementary, the algorithmic and – as novelty – the human-centered evidence. As conclusion, we claim that Real World Data are more valuable and applicable to achieve patient-centricity and personalization if the human-centered perspective is considered ‘by design’.

    Perceptions and misconceptions of blockchain: the potential of applying threshold concept theory
    (2022) Schneider, Bettina; Azan, Wilfrid
    Blockchain is a technology of increasing importance. It is difficult to build a thorough understanding of blockchain as it relies on multiple abstract and technological building blocks. Therefore, it is not surprising that a number of misconceptions circulate on the topic of blockchain. This paper filters and categorizes existing research on people’s perceptions of blockchain technology and misconceptions. The identified gap in addressing and overcoming misconceptions leads to the theory of threshold concepts. The fundamentals and potentials of the approach in the field of blockchain are elaborated. The paper ends with a call for future research in this direction.

    Cybersecurity by design for smart home environments
    (2019) Siddhanti, Pragati; Asprion, Petra; Schneider, Bettina; Filipe, Joaquim; Smialek, Michal; Brodsky, Alexander; Hammoudi, Slimane
    The Internet of Things (IoT) is being increasingly adopted by businesses to improve operations, processes, and products. While it opens endless opportunities, it also presents tremendous challenges especially in the area of cyber risks and related security controls. With billions of interconnected devices worldwide, how do we ensure that they are sufficiently secure and resilient? As a reasonable solution, ‘Cybersecurity by Design’ seems a promising approach. In this research, ‘Smart Homes’ - as IoT containing products – are selected as unit of analysis because they are exposed to numerous cyber threats with corresponding adverse consequences for the life, safety and health of residents. By aiming to secure Smart Home Environments (SHEs) from cyber threats, we adopted ‘design science’ as methodology and developed a holistic approach, highlighting ‘good practices’, which can be applied in every phase of the SHEs product lifecycle. In addition to these good practices, a ‘Cyber Security Maturity Assessment’ tool for SHEs has been developed. Both artefacts have already been validated and incrementally improved, and are now awaiting their future application and further enhancements.

    Interconnected enterprise systems - A call for new teaching approaches
    (2018) Schneider, Bettina; Asprion, Petra; Grimberg, Frank; Shi, Yong; Fu, Haohuan; Tian, Yingjie; Krzhizhanovskaya, Valeria V.; Lees, Michael Harold; Dongarra, Jack; Sloot, Peter M. A.
    Enterprise Resource Planning Systems (ERPS) have continually extended their scope over the last decades. The evolution has currently reached a stage where ERPS support the entire value chain of an enterprise. This study deals with the rise of a new era, where ERPS is transformed into so-called interconnected Enterprise Systems (iES), which have a strong outside-orientation and provide a networked ecosystem open to human and technological actors (e.g. social media, Internet of Things). Higher education institutions need to prepare their students to understand the shift and to transfer the implications to today’s business world. Based on literature and applied learning scenarios the study shows existing approaches to the use of ERPS in teaching and elaborates whether and how they can still be used. In addition, implications are outlined and the necessary changes towards new teaching approaches for iES are proposed.
