webinars and videos about iiRDS

The iiRDS Consortium, in collaboration with tekom Europe, has organized a free 2023 webinar series to inform companies about iiRDS and the iiRDS Consortium – our goals, benefits, projects and use cases.

So far, there have been webinars on the introduction and implementation of iiRDS. At the tcworld conference, the iiRDS Consortium presents the latest developments as well as use cases.

If you missed the conference or a webinar, you can watch the recorded sessions online in our iiRDS YouTube channel.

Implementing iiRDS

iiRDS in the Knowledge Graph

This webinar with Consortium members parson and Empolis Information Management explains what needs to be considered when implementing iiRDS in knowledge graphs. iiRDS is a vocabulary for technical communication. In order to implement semantic applications in companies, additional standardized vocabularies are required, e.g. for product classification and marketing. Using selected use cases, we show the benefits of iiRDS in a company.

Deliver intelligent information to enable the digital twin

This recorded webinar showcases Knick's implementation of the iiRDS metadata model. Eva-Maria Wolf from plusmeta and Andreas Kamzol from Knick Elektronische Messgeräte explain how iiRDS and AI are being used to optimize content delivery and create a digital twin. Funded by the iiRDS Consortium, this project also focuses on ensuring compliance with VDI 2770 and IDTA Asset Administration Shell (AAS) specifications.

iiRDS: Vom Austauschformat zum Informationspionier

Erfahren Sie, wie iiRDS von einem Austauschformat zu einem zentralen Standard für Metadaten-Auszeichnung der technischen Kommunikation heranwuchs. Der Vortrag von Volker Römisch (Noxum GmbH) beleuchtet den Wandel, die aktuellen Anwendungen und zukünftige Möglichkeiten des iiRDS, die Informationsbereitstellung effizienter und zugänglicher zu machen. Tauchen Sie ein in die Welt des iiRDS und entdecken Sie sein Potenzial in der digitalen Informationsära.

Presentation in German

Pilotprojekt: Heller

Wie kann es gelingen, viele Datenquellen aus dem gesamten Unternehmen mittels iiRDS für ein CDP zu vereinheitlichen? Sind die in iiRDS vorgesehenen Metadaten ausreichend oder ist es notwendig iiRDS an gewissen Stellen individuell zu erweitern? Dieser Vortrag beleuchtet das Vorgehen, die angewandte Strategie und das Ergebnis bei Heller. 

Use Case Gebr. Heller Maschinenfabrik

Pilotprojekt: Siemens Energy

Viele Silos, verschiedene Konzepte, ein Datenjungle. Bei Siemens Energy sollen Inhalte aus verschiedensten Quellen standardisiert werden. Das heißt Metadaten harmonisieren und ein gemeinsames Datenformat finden. Wie Siemens Energy diese Aufgabe durch Einsatz von iiRDS angeht, zeigt dieser Vortrag.

Use Case Siemens Energy

iiRDS-Mythen entlarvt

iiRDS ist zu kompliziert, zu akademisch, passt nicht zu meinen Metadaten und ist durch die rasante Entwicklung der KI überflüssig? In einem humorvollen Vortrag hat Empolis einige dieser gängigen Irrtümer über iiRDS zusammengetragen und aufgeklärt.

iiRDS Use Cases at tekom 2022

Mitglieder des iiRDS-Konsortiums demonstrieren in Kurzvorträgen den Praxiseinsatz von iiRDS. In dem Video werden „Best Practices“ und „Lessons Learned“ aus iiRDS-Einführungsprojekten vorgestellt.

Use Cases in German

Information Dynamics with iiRDS as added value of VDI 2770

In the past years, the iiRDS Consortium maintained a continuous cooperation with VDI 2770 with the aim of bringing both standards in line. A small extract of this was presented at the virtual expert forum organized by the VDI for the launch of the VDI 2770: with the example of the iiBot, the added value that iiRDS brings to VDI2770 was displayed.

How our documentation learned to speak

Using a documentation for a chatbot, is that even possible? The iiBot, a chatbot project leaning on iiRDS, was developed in cooperation of several companies of the iiRDS Consortium in 2019. This presentation held by the involved companies is an introduction into the project how the iiBot learned to speak and was recorded at the virtual tekom SummerCon 2020.
