EMMC feat. the Virtual Materials Marketplace (VIMMP) Ontology Webinar

Ernst-Dieter 0 Comments

EMMC announces the start of the VIMMP webinar series, starting with the ontology work in the European project VIMMP – Virtual Materials Marketplace.
The semantic assets from VIMMP are developed in close coordination with the EMMC-CSA and MarketPlace projects and are intended to be of use to the EMMC and materials modelling community as a whole.

Thursday, May 23, 2019, 15.30 – 16.15 CEST (14.30 – 15.15 BST)

The webinar will be presented by Martin Horsch (STFC-12)

Objectives

Semantic assets can facilitate the integration of diverse data and software components into a coherent framework, permitting different approaches and solutions to become interoperable. Ontologies are semantic assets that characterize objects (entities) and the possible relations between them. Read more …

EMMC-CSA Workshop on Industrial impact of materials modelling – achievements and perspectives

Ernst-Dieter 0 Comments

 

The EMMC-CSA partner, POLITO is organising a Workshop on “Industrial impact of materials modelling – achievements and perspectives”

on July 8-10, 2019, at Sala Teatro, SiTI (Istituto Superiore sui Sistemi Territoriali), Turin, Italy

For detailed information on schedule, accommodation … please visit the event page!

Workshop objectives

The objective of this meeting is therefore to gather a consistent number of experts from the different stakeholders interested in materials adoption/development, and provide a discussion platform for industrial requirements as compared to state-of the-art modelling techniques. The ambition of the workshop is to cover the more relevant aspects which are critical to the widespread adoption of materials modelling techniques in industry. To this, six thematic sessions are organized and will cover:

  1. state-of-the-art modelling techniques and guidelines for further model developments;
  2. the perspective of the European software owners/developers;
  3. the economic impact of materials modelling on industrial innovation;
  4. strategies for improving the two-way transfer of knowledge between academia and industry – i.e. Translators and their training requirements;
  5. interoperability requirements and frameworks – e.g. ontologies – for integration of models and software. Finally, a special session will be dedicated to the discussion of the potential of artificial intelligence in the framework of materials modelling, with particular emphasis on the benefit for high-throughput simulations, big data and their mining – e.g. data-driven modelling – towards Industry 4.0.

Organisation, Contact & Support

This is an “Invitation-only” event. You will be contacted by the organisers. After you have confirmed your participation you will receive the registration link.

EMMC – Report on IntOP2018: EMMC-CSA Workshop on Marketplaces and Interoperability

Ernst-Dieter 0 Comments

On November 6-7, 2018, the EMMC organised the “IntOP2018: EMMC-CSA Workshop on Marketplaces and Interoperability”. This workshop took place at Fraunhofer IWM in Freiburg, Germany.

The goal of the workshop is to bring together main actors developing next generation online materials science collaboration platforms including calculated and measured data repositories to foster discussions and collaboration.

EMMC @ International Industrial Ontologies Workshops, FEB 4-7, 2019 – Oslo, Norway

Ernst-Dieter 0 Comments

Our EMMC-CSA partners Gerhard Goldbeck (Goldbeck Consulting) and Jesper Friis (SINTEF) will join the

International Industrial Ontologies Workshops in Oslo, Norway on 4 – 7 February 2019.

organised by the Industrial Ontology Foundry (IOF), SIRIUS (Centre for Scalable Data Access – University of Oslo) and DNV GL.

On the first day, Gerhard Goldbeck will take part in a panel discussion on “Ontology-based standards and interchangeability” to represent EMMC/EMMO.

 

EMMC-CSA: Report on Workshop on Interoperability in Materials Modelling

Ernst-Dieter 0 Comments

The “Workshop on Interoperability in Materials Modelling” took place in Cambridge on November 7-8, 2017 and presented a wide range of stakeholder communities, including academic and commercial materials modelling software owners, manufacturing industry , modellers covering different types of models and applications, repository owners , academic and commercial data and science/informatics software owners/consultants . It also brought together a number of current EU projects, the three DGCNECT COEs in the materials modelling field (NOMAD, MAX, E-CAM) and EUDAT .

The objective of the workshop was for EMMC to seek the support of and endorsement by the wider materials modelling community for the European Materials Modelling Ontology (EMMO). EMMC is also gathering requirements and outlining plans for interoperability between data repositories and marketplaces.

The major outcome of the workshop was the wide agreement on the need for ontologies in materials modelling. Moreover, there was a call for an integrated effort to develop ontologies for the whole field, including materials characterisation and modelling all the way to chemicals and materials development in industry. Such a development is regarded as key to success in digitalisation. The draft EMMO was well received and its current development was widely endorsed. The status, requirements, expectations, benefits, as well as potential pitfalls of ontologies were discussed in detail. The need for a common semantic basis and hence ontologies that drive the marketplace platform that will link all stakeholders (providers and buyers) and integrate translation and decision support was highlighted. There is good evidence that the Use of the RoMM terminology during communication about modelling and simulation is spreading well beyond EU projects. Finally, there is good evidence that the Documentation of simulations using MODA is now widely endorsed and is supporting communication and the development of the MODA portal.
