RWTH Aachen. Lehrstuhl für Informatik V (Information Systems)

Logo of RWTH - Aachen Lehrstuhl für Informatik VThe Chair of Computer Science 5 – Information Systems (RWTH-I5) works on the formal analysis, prototypical development, and practical testing of meta-information systems. These systems are used to document and coordinate the distributed design, integration, and evolution of database-centered applications in computer science. Our research topics include Engineering Information Systems, Metadata in Community Information Systems, Mobile Applications and Services, Database and Meta-Database Technology, Technology Enhanced Learning and Model Management.

RWTH-I5 is located at Ahornstrasse 55, D-52056 Aachen.

RWTH-I5 was a member of the CAPE-OPEN and Global CAPE-OPEN projects. CO-LaN welcomed RWTH-I5 as one of its founding members in January 2001.

RWTH-I5 supported CO-LaN with a collaborative website and their Migration cookbook proved useful for the early implementations of CAPE-OPEN interfaces. RWTH-I5 contributed also to the development of a PME tester.

Several publications attest to the contribution RWTH-I5 made to CAPE-OPEN:
