    Designing an intelligent Business Model Transformation Tool
    (INFORMATIK 2017, 2017) Augenstein, Dominik
    Global companies as well as small and medium-sized businesses have to respond to fast-changing markets and new customer demands to maintain their position in competition. Therefore, business models of companies must be able to reply flexibly to new requirements and simultaneously their execution must be ensured. However, existing business model concepts and tools are too rigid and often remain on a rather abstract level. As a consequence, they support a transformation of a company not suitable enough. Therefore, we present a design science PhD-project with the aim of designing a business model configuration tool enabling higher executability of the defined business models and support business model transformations. Based on a comprehensive problem analysis and literature study, we derive a first set of meta-requirements and design principles. Additionally, we demonstrate a first prototypical instantiation of the identified design principles. The presented tool enables practitioners as well as theorists to observe changes in business models rapidly and use to tool for a transformation of a business model. Furthermore, through the configuration character of the tool, a company-tailored business model can be defined. As a final contribution, this research fosters cooperation between strategic and executive company levels which increasingly becomes an imperative capability in today’s business environments.

    Designing Pedagogical Conversational Agents in Virtual Worlds
    (21. Fachtagung Bildungstechnologien (DELFI), 2023) Khosrawi-Rad, Bijan; Rinn, Heidi; Augenstein, Dominik; Markgraf, Daniel; Robra-Bissantz, Susanne
    Pedagogical conversational agents (PCAs) are intelligent dialog systems that can support students as chatbots or voice assistants. However, many users find interactions with PCAs less engaging. One solution to increase learners’ engagement is to embed the PCA in a virtual world, e.g., as a humanoid avatar that facilitates collaborative learning. Such a learning setting could be beneficial because virtual worlds positively affect fun and immersion. In this paper, we derive prescriptive design knowledge for PCAs in virtual worlds based on the results of nine expert interviews synthesized with findings from the literature. This design knowledge aims to enable the meaningful design of PCAs in virtual worlds. We contribute to research and practice by demonstrating how PCAs in virtual worlds can be designed to increase students' motivation to learn.

    Experience report: social BPM lab enhanced with participation of professionals
    (Modellierung 2016 - Workshopband, 2016) Augenstein, Dominik; Citak, Murat; Ullrich, Meike; Vetter, Arthur
    This article describes the experiences of conducting an enhanced Social BPM Lab. The basic idea of a Social BPM Lab is a case study centered around a fictitious company, where student groups from different locations all over the world are taking part. Thus, computersupported collaboration and modern communication tools are essential for its success. In addition to earlier conducted Labs, in this Lab not only university students participated, but also professionals, to give students an even more realistic learning atmosphere. So the background of the participants was quite heterogeneous. This paper gives an outline of the enhanced Lab setting, the challenges we faced during the Lab and lessons learned.
