An analysis of the expected impact on electricity market, security of supply, and system stability must consider the European context because of the strong coupling—both from an economic and a system operation point of view—through the cross-border power exchange of Germany with its neighbors.

We propose a multilevel energy system modeling, including electricity market, network congestion management, and system stability, to identify challenges for the years 2023 and 2035. Out of the results, we would like to highlight the positive role of innovative combined heat and power (CHP) solutions securing power and heat supply, the importance of a network congestion management utilizing flexibility from sector coupling, and the essential network extension plans.

This contribution provides a Capability Determining method that encompasses the three underlying technology-independent methods to guide stakeholders in describing, assigning and deriving capabilities for manufacturing. The first underlying method, Describing Capabilities, describes a workflow for the formal semantic description of capabilities. The workflow for assigning capabilities to a production resource is explained using the second method Assigning Capability. In the last workflow, capabilities are derived from production specification or a process description using the method Deriving Capability.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{BockKlausmannKleinertetal.2024, author = {Bock, J{\"u}rgen and Klausmann, Tobias and Kleinert, Tobias and K{\"o}cher, Aljosha and Simon, Marco and Winter, Michael}, title = {A Formal Approach to Defining Effects of Manufacturing Functions}, booktitle = {2024 IEEE 29th International Conference on Emerging Technologies and Factory Automation (ETFA)}, editor = {Facchinetti, Tullio and Cenedese, Angelo and Lo Bello, Lucia and Vitturi, Stefano and Sauter, Thilo and Tramarin, Federico}, publisher = {IEEE}, address = {Piscataway}, isbn = {979-8-3503-6123-0}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.1109/etfa61755.2024.10710847}, year = {2024}, language = {en} } @article{MayrKnollmeyerJeknicetal.2026, author = {Mayr, Thomas and Knollmeyer, Simon and Jeknic, Isidora and Fink, Leon and Hensel, Ralph and Huber, Marco F. and Großmann, Daniel}, title = {Enhancing Process Planning in the Automotive Industry: Extracting Procedural Knowledge from Assembly Operation Descriptions using Large Language Models}, volume = {2026}, journal = {Procedia CIRP}, number = {138}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {2212-8271}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.1016/j.procir.2026.01.137}, pages = {797 -- 802}, year = {2026}, abstract = {The non-standardized, human-written assembly descriptions have been a long-standing obstacle in the automotive assembly industry, making it difficult to use these data in the planning stage.
