SAP RESEARCH REPORT

Dear reader, We are living in a time of rapid global change. Companies and organizations must act faster to adapt themselves to this new reality and drive new competitive advantages. Technological innovation plays a decisive role; it can help mitigate future risks, handle crises faster, and drive long-term sustainable growth. In the coming years, the business models of most industries will drastically change with the increased pervasiveness of new technologies. Among these technologies is cloud computing, which already offers companies of all sizes an increasingly important building block in their IT strategy. A major stride into the future of many industries will be enabled through the emergence of the Internet of Services, setting the stage for a new era of business networks. Equally promising is our research on in-memory database technology which by using new ways of storing and accessing data will allow us to answer business queries in no more than a second, strengthening our vision of the real-time enterprise. SAPs goal is to embrace all of these new technologies and to provide our customers with a wide range of innovation in a long-term relationship across generations of change. Our global research organization, SAP Research, has the mission and the necessary freedom to investigate current trends, pursue future developments, test new technologies, and estimate their potential for enterprises, industries, and the society as a whole. This years theme, From Creativity to Value, adeptly summarizes the approach we take to make sure brilliant ideas and promising research results are transformed into tangible benefits for our customers. Creative ideas emerge when established concepts are challenged and elements that at first glance do not belong together are linked for the first time. Companies like SAP that stand at the

Editorial Vishal Sikka I SAP Research Report 2009/2010 I 3

intersection of business and IT have a distinct advantage. Each arena spurs the other on and new and breakthrough ideas continuously emerge, as SAP has proven again and again. Because the most prolific ideas originate through personal dialog and collaboration, SAP Research maintains close ties to customers and partners as well as with universities and research institutes across the globe. Our areas of research range from medical care in rural areas of southern Africa, to the workplace of the future in Europe and the Americas, to supporting rescue organizations in large-scale disasters in Asia. The industrialization of software development is also being explored, as are the security of urban areas and the use of software to support a more sustainable society, for example, in the field of energy management. But creativity alone cannot be the goal of corporate research. Ideas must be developed and tested, classified, and channeled. They need a firm technological basis to provide benefits and returns for a company, its customers, and partners. This is the only way to drive sustainable value. The SAP Research Report you hold in your hands is an important way in which we can document our open, yet focused and structured research process. Once again, you will find a broad overview of our visions, ideas, and projects to create the next generation of software. Research and innovation play a crucial role to enable a future of sustainable growth and create jobs in all sectors. SAP is at the forefront as a leader in IT. Enjoy your reading,

EDITORIAL
SAP RESEARCH REPORT

Dear reader, In these challenging economic times, research organizations play a significant role in guiding our economy toward a brighter future. In order to assess its contributions, an organization must look critically at its achievements and its lessons learned. The SAP Research Report 2009/2010 is meant to provide you with an overview of our activities, with an emphasis on the research projects and outcomes that best show our curiosity and passion about the future of IT and the potential for business and society. SAP Research is proud to look back on its success in the past years. We have experienced recent growth and, despite the critical business climate of 2009, were able to unfold an even wider variety of themes and prototypes and expand our research network considerably. In 2009, new research groups were opened in India, Israel, and Bulgaria, further intensifying SAPs scientific exchange with local partners. In the same year, we also experienced organizational change here at SAP. SAP Research joined the Office of the CTO, resulting in an even stronger convergence of research activities with the overall SAP technology strategy. However, our goal remains the same. We are committed to trend analysis, research, and co-innovation with internal and external partners, and we strive to develop new knowledge as a thought leader for breakthrough innovation within SAP. The Original1 spin-off, a joint venture with Nokia and the Germanbased technology provider Giesecke & Devrient, marked a great milestone for SAP Research. Founded on thorough IT research, this enterprise has set out to improve global brand protection by providing unique product authentication and anticounterfeiting services. I am sure that we will see the emergence of more spin-offs in the future that successfully turn research results into products and services and ultimately into new jobs.

Editorial Lutz Heuser I SAP Research Report 2009/2010 I 5

Fresh ideas also stemmed from events, most notably from the International Research Forum (IRF), an annual think tank organized by SAP Research that brings together global thought leaders from business and science. In 2009, we examined the connection of real-world objects in the Future Internet, asking the question The Internet of Things: Reality or Hype? Although a variety of viewpoints were discussed, all attendees foresee tremendous change on the horizon. In addition to the evolution of entirely new business models, affecting several industries, this new technology is sure to have a significant impact at both an individual and a societal level. Furthermore, the SAP Research PhD program, which we have been offering in close collaboration with major universities for several years now, has also proven to be a tremendous success. More and more graduates are completing the program, proving the value of our commitment to higher education and the fruitfulness of undertaking a doctoral degree in a real-world setting while keeping closely connected to an academic base. Reflecting on these and many other successes, the SAP Research Report 2009/2010 focuses on the stakeholders of our co-innovative network and the value created from our joint research endeavors. Although each chapter has its own flavor, they all exemplify the motto From Creativity to Value, rooted in the continuous explorative and collaborative spirit of SAP Research and each of our partners and colleagues. I invite you to share in the excitement of our successful research endeavors, and I hope that you find this report to be an interesting and stimulating read.

Exploring Trends with a Network of Innovative Minds


SAP Research is committed to shaping the IT solutions of tomorrow through industrial research. Its goal is to anticipate and evaluate emerging IT trends and to further mold these trends into valuable breakthrough innovations. Promising trends are investigated through collaborative research projects, leading to future developments and technologies for both SAP and the IT world in general. This type of thought leadership is achieved thanks to SAP Researchs extensive expertise and in cooperation with its powerful coinnovation network.

extended to local research partners and companies. SAP Researchs own network consists of 500 employees (including students and PhD candidates) across five continents, and the organization continues to grow. After the opening of its new research center in Raanana, Israel, in November 2008, the SAP Research Group Bangalore was officially established in July 2009. The group is located at the SAP Labs India main campus, and its research topics are focused mostly on the areas of decision support systems for text understanding, service infrastructures, and Web information quality. January 2010 saw the opening of the SAP Research Group Sofia in Bulgaria. In addition to significantly leveraging the local 500-person development team, the researchers in Sofia are mainly exploring nextgeneration platforms for business services, processes, and applications, which will significantly strengthen all existing and future SAP products. Additional areas of interest for the group are cloud computing, on-demand offerings, social networking, and user experience.

Bangalore: Web 2.0 Productization Opportunity


One of the highlights of the newly formed SAP Research Group Bangalore in 2009 was the opportunity to rapidly take a technology that we had built called Compareviews into product development. The aim was to integrate existing applications with the Web 2.0 world, especially social media such as Facebook and Twitter. Compareviews is an end-to-end decision support system for text understanding. The initial focus of the system has been on mining reviews of consumer products and presenting the result in a meaningful way. Compareviews helps users sift through this plethora of text data that is scattered across the Internet to rapidly arrive at the decision that they were trying to make, be it purchasing a camera or deciding which restaurant to go to. The customer relationship management (CRM) team at SAP strongly believes that Compareviews would bring significant value to some of SAPs key customers who use their platform to power their e-commerce Web sites. Our interactions with the CRM team are a great example of working with a progressive product team that is keen to rapidly incorporate SAP Research prototypes and ideas into its mainstream offerings in order to accelerate time-tomark market.

SAP Labs Israel


The global spread of SAP Researchs locations helps the organization communicate with the most advanced centers of innovation around the world. Each SAP Research Center is co-located with either a partner university or an SAP Lab location, creating a solid foundation for collaborative research.

From Trends to Innovation


The Research Process Having an idea is central but only a first step in conducting industrial research. One of the main tasks is to select and assess trends and ideas that can be turned into innovative products. This funneling process is necessary to create value out of the grand pool of creativity and to make innovation happen. Ideas and trends are continuously discussed across SAP Researchs coinnovation network, its dedicated external review boards, and internal innovation channels to determine which topics are worth pursuing. A wide range of business and industry reports are also screened to gain an understanding of the drivers of change and the impact on future business opportunities. Once

a topic of mutual interest has been decided upon among collaborators, joint research projects are undertaken. The project must receive approval from SAP as well as the project partners and the funding body. Once the collaborative research project is underway, anticipated use cases, business scenarios, and technical concepts are developed. Demonstrators and prototypes are created to show the feasibility of the research ideas. To further validate the findings, investigations into the customer and business requirements and the market relevance of the research are conducted using trials and research pilots in a real-world setting. SAP product groups, customers, and partners are involved in this undertaking through formal auditing processes and regular feedback loops.

Discovery Channeling Trends Emerging trends and ideas are identified, evaluated, and monitored across a variety of sources in SAP Researchs co-innovation network. Research Portfolio Management Based on trends identified as promising, a strategic framework is developed for innovationoriented research.

Invention Co-Innovative Research In alignment with this framework, collaborative research projects are pursued, involving a variety of adept partners, customers, and product groups.

The Research Process

12 I SAP Research Report 2009/2010 I About SAP Research

Through strong communication between SAP Research Business Development and SAPs internal development and solution management teams, the knowledge gained from the research projects is transferred across SAP throughout the entire collaborative research process. When a product decision has been reached by the relevant stakeholders, a dedicated transfer project is implemented. As an alternative to productizing research results by SAP, spin-off companies founded on these results have also been established, both by SAP Research alone and with partners. Read more about the Original1 spin-off in Chapter 3.

The Research Portfolio One popular definition of a trend is that it is a tendency with a certain statistical probability of occurrence, indicating the direction of a likely development. Simply put, trends are long-term changes within an environment. Understanding trends enables SAP Research to forecast the future. In its exploration of current trends, SAP Research has created a strategic framework a research portfolio around which to focus its activities. This research portfolio is founded on trends that the group has identified as promising and is a combination of technology and business strategy. The SAP Research portfolio is based on a bottom-up approach. The research programs, made up of different technology clusters, form the solid foundation for the business areas. The business areas touch upon different aspects of technological, societal, and business change and represent areas in which SAP is currently driving its activities. In its exploration of these business areas, SAP Research can then identify the next big things strategically relevant, future-generation products and technologies. Research Programs To focus its research efforts on the most promising topics for business information technology, SAP Research bundles its activities into nine technical research programs. Research programs are clusters of technology areas that are relevant to the technology strategy of SAP and support existing or future business. Each program is driven by a vision that anticipates the future development in this particular research area and serves as a guideline for further research. Each research project is assigned to at least one research program and implements dedicated parts of the program vision. The research programs are as follows:

What does research mean for software development? It is all about creativity and innovation. It is difficult to predict the future, but research helps us to explore it systematically and, finally, to embrace it successfully. SAP Research provides us with a clear picture about the next big things and lays out paths for turning research results into standard software that will bring value to SAP and its customers. Research also means our ambition to drive forward and shape future developments in IT and business. We appreciate SAP Researchs active role in the BST innovation council, which drives and facilitates innovation across SAPs product groups. The remarkable achievements in research at SAP in 2009 included transfers from research into product development that leveraged existing applications for business process management and supply chain management. The Galaxy transfer project, for example, enables business users to manage business processes in an efficient, collaborative, secure, and compliant manner. Another example of a successful research-to-product transfer is the real-world integration platform that connects SAP business systems to the devices, systems, and users in the physical world and, thus, complements the notion of the real-time enterprise.

digital world with the physical world made possible by the Internet of Things, products have the possibility to carry information about themselves and to communicate with one another. Entire business processes can thus be optimized, using, for example, radiofrequency identification (RFID). Manufacturers are continuously being forced to rethink how they operate, due to various factors including changes in business models, outsourcing, and downscaling. SAP Research is working to widen the view on manufacturing in both vertical (from shop floor to user interface) and horizontal (throughout the whole value chain) dimensions. Its vision for future manufacturing is a holistic, service-oriented architecture that seamlessly integrates factory, enterprise, and supply chain in order to enable the realworld-aware, realtime enterprise in the manufacturing industry.

About SAP Research I SAP Research Report 2009/2010 I 15

Cloud computing is the generic umbrella term for flexible, IT-related services, such as storage, computing power, software development environments, and applications, combined with service delivery through the Internet to consumers and businesses. The main innovation is that the IT infrastructure no longer lies with the user, meaning that users can access these services without special knowledge. Clouds provide major opportunities for new business models by restructuring the value chains in the information and communication industry, making cloud computing a concept that will surely change the way people work and companies operate.

middleware components, networks, and end points will be structurally connected in entirely new ways. As such, pervasive networks, miniaturization of devices, mobile communication, and new models for business processes, collaboration, and lifecycle management will be further made possible. Thanks to the Internet of Services, the opportunity to create a Web-based service industry is becoming a reality. In this type of virtual world, software providers, service providers, brokers, and users can collaborate using a service delivery platform (SDP) to build flexible and dynamically integrated

With its high-tech strategy, the German federal government is supporting the innovation transfer between research and industry in todays practice. The research funding helps to bring together important partners for the comprehensive integration of future-oriented solutions into business processes and the entire product lifecycle. IT companies can only succeed in the international market through substantial investments in research and development and in the implementation of innovative ideas. Therefore, the Internet of Things is a major focus of the German Federal Ministry of Education and Researchfunded projects at SAP, research institutions, and universities.

Demonstration of research results


The Internet of Things fuses the digital world and the physical world by bringing together different concepts and technical components. Experts predict that the Internet of Things will lead to tremendous efficiency gains in many industries, such as manufacturing and energy supply. Applications, services, applications. The SDP supports the whole lifecycle of a service offering from its creation, introduction, and redesign with incorporated user feedback. SAP Research is looking to further explore services that can be managed through IT and, being combined, lend themselves into value-added services.

Through the program, which is scheduled for three years, the postgraduate students, under the guidance of their academic supervisor and SAP Research manager, work directly on research projects within their area of study and interest belonging to one of the SAP Research portfolio programs. The PhD boxes in this chapter present three successful doctoral students and their dissertations, representing the brilliance of all program candidates and topics.

Todor Stoitsev: End UserDriven Business Process Composition


How can users without a programming background develop their own business applications? This question inspired Todor Stoitsev to conduct research in enduser development at the SAP Research Center Darmstadt as part of the SAP Research PhD program. Having four and a half years of professional experience as a software engineer in the field of electronic data exchange, as well as having been part of the SAP NetWeaver technology platform team at SAP Labs Bulgaria, Todor joined the EUDISMES project in Darmstadt, Germany. The project demonstrates the impact of end-user development, allowing users of software systems to create, modify, or extend a software artifact. Todors research has successfully pioneered these concepts, enabling end users to compose business process models on their own using a high-end prototype system that has been integrated in the daily working environment of three SMEs. Todor completed his PhD at the Technische Universitt Darmstadt in less than three years and achieved excellent results. During this period, he published 10 peer-reviewed papers at highly ranked conferences, received a best paper award, and submitted four patent applications in Europe and in the United States. What accomplishments!

Olaf Grebner: Using Unified Personal Information in Workspaces


Olaf Grebner, a PhD student at the SAP Research Center Karlsruhe, did his research in knowledge worker support and personal information management. He tackled the personal information fragmentation problem by showing how to integrate the knowledge workers personal information without bothering his daily work, especially in use cases like personal task and meeting management. Olafs work was conducted in the context of Nepomuk, an EUfunded project whose major result, the Nepomuk Social Semantic Desktop, is being deployed by several million users of the KDE Linux desktop manager. Using his expertise in knowledge management and collaboration topics for SAPs Knowledge People Interaction research program, Olaf employed user-centered design methods to validate design ideas with end users early in the design process and to ensure usability. Leveraging his research results, Olaf completed his PhD thesis on the topic Using Unified Personal Information in Workspaces and successfully finished his defense after only three years at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology. During this time, he published over 10 scientific papers, submitted several invention disclosures and a patent, and supervised up to 14 students. A truly amazing achievement!

There are currently around 100 PhD students participating in the program. The candidates are working on projects at the SAP Research Centers in Karlsruhe, Dresden, Darmstadt, and Walldorf, Germany; Zurich and St. Gallen, Switzerland; Sophia Antipolis, France; Belfast, Northern Ireland; Raanana, Israel; Sydney and Brisbane, Australia; and Pretoria, South Africa. In 2009, 12 dissertations were successfully completed with the honor of summa cum laude or magna cum laude. The program organizers are looking to expand the PhD program even further globally to tap into the talent pools of other countries, especially those in emerging economies, and to contribute to their talent development. The aim is to reach a level of 25 successful PhD completions per year. Program Gains The benefits of the PhD program are twofold. PhD candidates gain invaluable practical experience while completing a successful thesis. Thanks to its wide breadth of international projects and areas of discovery, SAP Research offers the students a broad range of opportunities for doctoral theses. Participants in the program are able to get in touch with the hottest topics and trends and build up their skills and experiences thanks to their hands-on work in real-world research projects. They also become part of SAP Researchs global network, which is closely tied to SAPs development organizations and includes academic partners from high-ranking universities and industrial partners all over the world. On the other hand, the PhD students are important pillars of many of SAPs top-notch research projects and contribute manifold value to SAP. They play a very active role within the projects

and collaborate with both their internal colleagues and external partners and customers. SAP Research benefits greatly from the enthusiasm of the PhD candidates, whose work is directly connected to specific applied fields within the SAP Research portfolio. New talents, ideas, patents, and technologies developed by the students are brought to SAP, its research projects, and products. Research Topics and Postprogram Careers Recent graduates of the program focused on topics such as scalable ontological enterprise application integration and e-business integration, next-generation applications, and enduser development. Further topics under investigation include business process management, business cases for the Internet of Things, security and trust, smart items and future manufacturing, and business service monitoring in the Internet of Services. In addition to these technical topics, SAP Research PhD students are also undertaking projects in areas such as innovation management and research dissemination. Many of the program participants have gone on to work at SAP, either within SAP Research or in a development, consulting, or marketing unit. Some have taken up postdoctoral positions in the academic and research communities, whereas others have started their own companies or been offered leadership roles in the IT field. www.sap.com/about/company /research/jobs/phd.epx

cently established relationships with universities in Eastern Europe. To foster industrial research between Europe and Russia, the group is providing Russian students with the opportunity to conduct their masters theses at an SAP Research Center. The program, funded by an SAP Research grant, is designed for the students to spend six months working on a hands-on project at an SAP Research Center location, followed by three months at their home university completing their theses. Successful participants of the program are also potential candidates for the SAP Research PhD program. In 2009, students from the State University Higher School of Economics in Moscow and the St. Petersburg State Polytechnical University participated in the program and took part in collaborative projects with researchers from the SAP Research Center Karlsruhe and the SAP Research Center St. Gallen. Also in 2009, SAP Research was pleased to host interns from Macedonia as part of the Zoran Djindji Internship Program. The program, established by the Eastern Committee of German Economy in cooperation with the German Federal Ministry of Economic Cooperation and Development and the Zoran Djindji Fund, offers young professionals of the Western Balkans the opportunity to gain practical and cultural experience by completing a three- to six-month internship at leading German companies. Academic Awards and Grants Established in 2009, the SAP Research and Innovation Award India provides research projects conducted at leading Indian universities and research institutes with funding for 12 months and the opportunity to cooperate with SAP Research and SAP Labs. Five projects were selected and awarded research grants. During the projects one-year duration, the award recipients collaborate on an ongoing basis with SAP Research and its partners. Thanks to the program, academics in India are provided with a platform for turning their ideas into applied business projects. This is just one example of how SAP Research and SAP Labs are further encouraging co-innovation and fruition of new ideas from academia in the Indian IT ecosystem.

In academic institutions, we often do not get to learn the practical side of a problem. SAP Research provides me with such an opportunity. SAP has a lot of leverage in the area of text analytics. This leverage has enriched me with new insights on the practical aspects. We are now designing algorithms for such purposes. Going forward, we would like to make the present setup mathematically more rigorous so that it yields better understanding of the problem statement which in turn might give superior results.

Sophia Antipolis: Summer School on Privacy in Web 2.0


Enjoying online communities, like Facebook or LinkedIn, poses greater and greater privacy dilemmas. Blogging and social networking encourage citizens to share very personal information, leaving long-lasting digital traces that can be used for malicious or commercial uses without the users or the platform providers consent. The EU-funded project PrimeLife aims to develop privacy tools so that European citizens can safeguard personal information in their online activities. Within PrimeLife and in collaboration with the International Federation for Information Processing (IFIP), the SAP Research Center Sophia Antipolis coorganized the Privacy and Identity Management for Life summer school. The summer school took place September 1418, 2009, and was a major highlight of the research center. Worldwide experts in technical, legal, regulatory, socioeconomic, and ethical aspects of privacy gathered together with young researchers for five days in Nice, France, to discuss innovative approaches for privacy.

Joint project work with SAP provides a very important add-on to our IT education due to the broad practical experiences for our graduates. Current examples include the Aletheia project on advanced semantic product data management or the THESEUS/TEXO project on the Internet of Services. The added value provided by SAP comprises real-world application scenarios and excel-lent conditions for validating our research results. This is augmented by a highly successful joint PhD program; recent thesis subjects have focused on finegrained access control for RFID data, temporal complex event processing, and data synchronization between application servers.

Basic Research Paves the Way
Collaboration with universities and research institutes forms an essential foundation for SAP Research to improve its innovative solutions and to help facilitate the adoption of new technologies. While SAP Research is focusing mainly on industrial research, collaborative projects usually involve basic research that is led by academic partners with a valuable contribution from industries. SAP Research has forged links with universities and research institutes that provide SAP access to state-of-the-art research and opportunities to apply and further develop new models, methods, and results. This collaboration also leads to the improvements of theories and methods, demonstrating firsthand the value industrial research brings to academia. Enhancing Software Quality The software industry as a whole, including SAP, is looking for ways to improve quality. Formal methods used to precisely capture and reason about characteristics of software and systems using formal languages and mathematical concepts are one means to achieve this. This allows for more precise specifications, effective testing, and automated validation of software, which can lead to more complete and consistent quality in software development with less manual steps in testing and correcting. Formal methods can also be used to prove that software works as defined and contains no unknown errors or bugs. SAP Research is investigating how formal methods can be applied to business software and, specifically, to SAP products. Formal specifications have already been used in several SAP internal pilots. A major challenge in the practice of formal methods is making them accessible to the nonexpert, by reducing the complexity of the modeling task and increasing the degree of verification automation. Being precise initially requires a great deal of effort. Despite the added labor, however, SAP Research is convinced of the benefits of these methods and has seen how the extra work can pay off in later stages of development. The group is providing the academic community feedback and ideas on their improvement and ease of application.

22 I SAP Research Report 2009/2010 I Academia and Science

Reliable Software in Service-Oriented Architectures Distributed systems are a major research topic related to the application of formal methods. Service-oriented architectures (SOAs) can help master the complexity of running these system landscapes. However, the use of SOAs also proves to be a challenge. Since they form loosely coupled systems that communicate through services, SOAs constitute rather complex interaction protocols, and flaws in the implementation of these protocols may easily lead to errors. Developers in these areas can benefit from formal engineering methods that include tools that automatically check whether software specifications contain faults or gaps. This will lead to big improvements in system dependability and development efficiency. In a pilot project, research was conducted on verifying application-level requirements in specifications of interaction protocols, or so-called message choreography models. The Event-B formalism and the open Rodin tool platform were used to prove models of business protocols and expose weaknesses in particular protocols with respect to certain middleware configurations. Furthermore, the automatic generation of integration tests from these models was developed. These tools are being fieldtested and adapted for a range of industrial engineering processes. In this pilot, formal models are automatically created out of established or emerging industrial modeling notations. This opens up the possibility of seamlessly integrating formal methods with current development environments. www.event-b.org/platform.html

Deploy choreography verification tool


The DEPLOY project explores the opportunities and requirements of deploying formal methods in different industry sectors, including automotive, business information, and transportation. SAP Research is collaborating with partners from industry and academia for example, Bosch, Siemens Transportation Systems, Space Systems Finland, Newcastle University, the University of Southampton, bo Akademi University, the Heinrich-Heine-Universitt in Dsseldorf, and the Swiss Institute of Technology ETHZ. www.deploy-project.eu code or technical specifics when developing new software. This can simplify the development process, enhance transparency, and improve communication across development teams. SAP Research is working on tools for supporting developers and nontechnical users with regard to nonfunctional requirements, such as the impact of their design decisions on performance. Late identification of performance problems can lead to significant additional development costs. Therefore, it is necessary to address performance within the development phases of a software solution, especially when complex software applications are built. SAP Research implemented performance-related decision support as an extension of MDE, named model-driven performance engineering

Improving Performance Engineering and Testing The idea of model-driven engineering (MDE) concepts is to focus on domain concepts rather than on the software

Academia and Science I SAP Research Report 2009/2010 I 23

(MDPE). MDPE offers synchronization mechanisms between development and performance analysis models and allows the integration of analysis results into the development process, enabling performance-related decision support. Research on this topic is being partly conducted in the MODELPLEX project, which focuses on MDE approaches and tools with the goal of making them suitable for complex system development. Partners include research groups from other companies and research organizations, such as the Institut National de Recherche en Informatique et Automatique (INRIA), the University of York, the Technische Universitt Braunschweig, the Technische Universitt Dresden, and the Fraunhofer Institute for Open Communication Systems (FOKUS). www.modelplex-ist.org

onymity, and nonrepudiation. Establishing these properties in open and evolving enterprise software landscapes requires both innovative technologies and methodologies. One key aspect of security is that even a few critical ambiguities in standard specifications can easily lead to flaws. SAP Research has recognized the essential role of formal methods in the success of security technologies. The group is using these methods to identify loopholes in core security protocols widely considered to be key enablers for emerging trends such as SOA, software as a service (SaaS), and Web 2.0. The AVANTSSAR (Automated VAlidatioN of Trust and Security of Service-oriented ARchitectures) project creates a platform that provides an automated tool set for validating trust and security aspects of service-oriented architectures. SAP researchers and project partners are developing the first formal language for reasoning about and specifying trust and security properties of services, their associated security policies, and their composition into service architectures. SAP Research is pushing to have these techniques made available to a few targeted industrial environments, providing access to persons who have no expertise in formal methods. Results from the project are being applied to the SAP NetWeaver technology platform and will be migrated to industry and standardization organizations, helping to enhance the security and robustness of network and service infrastructures and increase the publics trust in As a computer scientist, I am at the interface between basic research and industrial applications and innovations. The cooperation with companies like SAP helps to strengthen the foundation-oriented research of academic institutions and creates new impulses for the teaching. At the same time, companies benefit from the progress made in basic research for example, in the case of new development and quality assurance methods for software. The most successful cooperation occurs when both needs the abstract knowledge of methods and the specific issue flow into mutual projects.

Security and Trust in Service-Oriented Architectures The Internet is a complex world and, as such, is not free of risk. Computer viruses, phishing attacks, and identity theft are common problems that any Internet user can encounter. As more and more enterprises are conducting business virtually over the Web, it is imperative that their ICT infrastructures and applications are secure. This relates to a broad range of security aspects that, as a consequence of open environments and service architectures like those for e-business, e-commerce, and e-government, cannot be restricted. These aspects include authenticity, authorization, integrity, confidentiality, privacy, anonymity, pseud-

emerging ICT systems and applications based on them. This project is being conducted together with academic and industrial partners, including the Universit degli Studi di Verona and the Universit degli Studi di Genova, ETH Zurich and IBM Zurich, the Institut National de Recherche en Informatique et Automatique, and SIEMENS Munich. www.avantssar.eu Secure Collaboration Concerns exist about data sharing in supply chains that can be addressed with new or advanced cryptographic techniques. Businesses are aware that massive cost savings can be achieved

by establishing an electronically supported end-to-end supply chain. However, many organizations are reluctant to reveal sensitive data about their operations and financials to partner companies due to the risks associated with exposing this private information to potential competitors. Secure computation will enable business partners to receive all the benefits from collaborative supply chains without having to disclose critical and valuable information. Secure computation allows parties to compute any function so that only the result is revealed and the private inputs are kept secret. The challenge is to find efficient schemes for specific complex classes of functions.

Current methodologies for evaluation of security vulnerability are manual and intuitive and do not permit the combinational discipline required to evaluate the security of complex systems. Systems of formal validation like AVANTSSAR directly address some of these core problems and are extremely important, not only theoretically but at a very practical level. AVANTSSAR has already discovered a fundamental vulnerability in the protocol implementation of an important industry player. There is no doubt that this kind of technology should become an integral tool for the design of distributed systems. Collaboration between researchers, between researchers and industry, and between industry players is key not only to advancing research but to advancing the state of security on the Internet.

The projects results will shed a new positive light on collaborative supply chain management, extending its scope to a number of application domains, including manufacturing, logistics, and design outsourcing. Project partners include the Technische Universiteit Eindhoven, the Universit degli Studi di Milano, and the International University Bruchsal. www.securescm.org

AVANTSSAR Finds the Flaw


Given the breadth of the Internet and the variety of possible threats, guaranteeing the security of an IT application is not an easy feat. It is not sufficient to analyze the application in isolation; it is necessary to consider all worst-case scenarios in the overall environment in which the application is used. Attackers are clearly the major component of complexity, as they have at their disposal many capabilities to attempt to break in (malicious exploits are even freely downloadable from the Web). The SAP Research team and AVANTSSAR project partners showed that advanced tool support to identify security pitfalls is imperative, as it can spot mistakes that might have been overlooked by human eyes. The team chose one of Googles flagship products as the target for a validation case study: the SAML-based single sign-on (SSO) solution for Google Apps Premier Edition package. This service allows partner companies to provide their employees and users direct and transparent access to popular Web-based Google applications by signing into the system once instead of for each service. The OASIS Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) 2.0 Web browser SSO profile is the emerging standard in this context. The formal models of the protocol used by Google were mechanically analyzed with SATMC (SAT-based model checker), a state-of-the-art model checker for security protocols, leading to the discovery of a major security vulnerability. The discovered flaw would allow a dishonest service provider to impersonate a client at another service provider. In an SAML SSO setting, a client (C) is authenticated to consume a service from a service provider (SP) by means of a digitally signed SAML assertion issued by a trusted third-party identity provider (IdP). This signed assertion contains C, IdP, SP, and a string ID uniquely identifying the request made by the client and testifies that IdP has successfully authenticated C for the request ID submitted to SP. This cryptographic bundle should be tamper proof and allows the SP to securely offer its services. Unfortunately, in the SAML specifications used by Google, both the ID string and the SP identifier were absent from the cryptographic bundle, opening up the potential for identity theft or privacy violation. The discovery was kept confidential until Google developed a patch and Googles customers updated their applications accordingly. This demonstrates how even basic research for example, in the area of formal specification and automated validation have a significant and immediate impact in the real world. SAP Research is consulting SAPs development teams to apply this innovative technology to SAPs own software.

New Businesses for New Markets Since industrial research is aimed at developing new business opportunities and exploring new markets, research must be transformed continuously into products that deliver results. One method for achieving this is internal transfer projects that enrich and expand SAPs existing solution portfolio. In addition, SAP Research supports spin-off enterprises, which allow researchers to build up their own businesses and enter SAPs strong partner ecosystem. In some cases, the new companies are found to further exploit new technologies and business opportunities on a larger scale. In 2009, for example, SAP and Nokia, together with the German-based technology provider Giesecke & Devrient, announced a joint venture named Original1, which aims to improve global brand protection. Tangible Experiences Living labs are a new paradigm for technological research. This concept is designed to boost open innovation with customers, partners, developers, and SAP researchers throughout the research and development process of new products and services. The concept involves demonstrating technological research in real-world settings, turning prospective SAP solutions into tangible experiences. Their feedback, in turn, has a direct impact on the research and development process.

Our continuous dialogue with SAP Research helps us to understand what is happening in the world of IT research. I appreciate the open discussions that span from technology to business models, which are becoming more and more important as ICT influences our daily lives. SAP and Intel are pursuing research together for example, in the areas of the Internet of Things and cloud computing driven by joint research projects and the newly established SAP and Intel Collaboratory.

Common ground for co-innovation was also formed in India, where SAP and Tata Consultancy Services agreed to conduct joint research projects. Tata Consultancy has already been a key partner of SAP in India and other major markets for years. Identified research areas include model-driven architecture and integration of enterprise data, Web 2.0, the Internet of Services, and the Internet of Things.

Since 2001 the European Union has been supporting this concept, with over 50 living labs run by public-private partnerships throughout Europe. SAP Research has developed three living lab locations in Germany and Switzerland and is applying this methodology to the field of emerging economies in South Africa. The motto SAP to touch and explore best describes these efforts. Future Factory Initiative Managed by the SAP Research Center Dresden, the Future Factory Initiative is a joint effort between SAP Research and industrial and academic partner organizations to develop new ideas for facilitating manufacturing operations. Key projects currently address different topics, including: Real-world integration Seamless real-time integration of business management systems with physical devices and processes in the real world Adaptive manufacturing software Highly configurable software infrastructure for building process-specific solutions for manufacturing operations management Innovative user interaction Technology and infrastructure for building highly intuitive user interfaces for shop floor workers, foremen, and plant managers Future Retail Center The Future Retail Center, located in Regensdorf, Switzerland, is managed by SAP Research Switzerland. It is a joint effort between SAP Research, industrial partners, and academic organizations to foster research and development in retail, wholesale, consumer packaged goods, and logistics.

One major goal of the Future Retail Center is to improve customer experience while optimizing in-store processes with intelligent deployment of IT and SAP systems. This living lab is exploring new technologies like store navigation and payment via mobile devices. Another goal is to find out how RFID systems, sensor-based systems, and other information and communication

technologies can enable the complete visibility and traceability of handling units along the supply chain. These systems and technologies can be used to automate and optimize end-to-end processes, from production to the sales floor, to the customer, and beyond. As a result, visualization of in-store stock and automatic replenishment processes may be realized in the future. This will generate an enormous benefit to consumers and businesses.

Dresden: Future Factory From a Local Initiative to a Global Undertaking


One highlight for the SAP Research Center Dresden was the successful rollout of its Future Factory Living Lab to a diverse span of stakeholders, raising its status from a local initiative to a global undertaking. After its launch in 2008, the Future Factory Initiative (FFI) focused on illustrating research results through real-world demonstrators, testing prototypes in a fully SAP-enabled manufacturing environment, and providing a platform for information exchange among its partners. During 2009 this focus was extended to support SAPs field organization with the hosting of customer and partner events as well as with engaging customers in the research projects conducted at the Future Factory. In total, the lab was visited by more than 700 guests throughout the year. On a regional level, the FFI has gained the interest of the Saxony Ministry of Labor and Economics. It has also been well integrated into the research conducted through the Digital Product Memory Alliance funded by the German government. Finally, on a global scale, the FFI is engaging with international companies, including Intel, Microsoft, and, re most recently, Mitsubishi Electric. Mi Mitsubishi Electric, for example example, indicated interest in a closer c collaboration between the FFI and its Ce e-Factory Center in Nagoya, Japan, excha exchanging know-how replicatin and replicating parts at both centers.

Improving the Way Companies Do Business


A large part of SAP Researchs project portfolio focuses on finding new technologies and solutions that can be used to help enterprises run more efficiently and to create new business opportunities. In the past years, the Internet became one key tool to develop such possibilities. By pushing the capabilities of the Internet even further, the way in which products are manufactured, retailed, and purchased is being revolutionized. In addition, new ways in which companies can better manage their business processes and run their enterprise applications more efficiently and securely are also being developed. The applications that result from these research projects benefit not only the businesses that run them; they are also designed to improve the experience of the business user. The Internet of Things The Internet of Things is one of SAP Researchs main fields of focus. Over the past couple of years, SAP has been continually developing its vision of how the Internet can reach out to the real world of physical objects. The Internet of Things fuses the digital and physical worlds by bringing different concepts and technical components together: pervasive networks, miniaturization of devices, mobile communication, and new models for business processes. Applications, services, middleware components, networks, and end points will be structurally connected in entirely new ways. As such, the concept will have an impact on many traditional industries, such as retail, manufacturing, and logistics. The core idea behind the Internet of Things is to seamlessly gather informa-

tion about objects in the physical world and use the information in various applications. The collection of information about the objects and goods origin, location, movements, physical properties, usage history, and context can help enterprises improve both existing intra- and intercompany business processes and also create new ones. Needs within a variety of sectors can be addressed, such as medical systems to monitor our well-being, support for the safe and independent living of all citizens, intelligent traffic management, improved environmental monitoring, and adaptive energy management. More information available on the enclosed CD Digital Product Memory Throughout its lifecycle, a product passes through many different stations, ranging from its creation to sales and maintenance to exploitation. In order to enable the connection to the different business processes involved, the connection between the describing information and the object has to be maintained across long stretches of time and diverse IT environments. One way to tackle this dilemma is to embed the information in the product itself. The concept of digital product memory employs global services from the Internet of Things in order to improve access to product-related information. The Internet of Things is being used to address the individual dual products memory and nd its ability to carry inforormation about itself and communicate this information to Dr. O other objects and Hea liver C Sw d of SA hrist the world around it. itz P

Switzerland: SAP Research Explores Future Insurance


Embarking upon a new research field, future insurance, was a great highlight for SAP Research Switzerland. SAP researchers, together with the Universitt St. Gallen and the ETH Zurich, successfully set up this new research field for SAP Research Switzerland and managed to produce presentable results. One of these results is a mobile claims management demonstrator that shows the benefit for the insurance industry. The demo Mobile Claims Assistance shows the integration of a Blackberry Storm device with enterprise services provided by the SAP Claims Management application. Based on the application scenario of a car accident, the demo illustrates how end users can report an insurance claim using their mobile phone (GPS coordinates and pictures taken from the accident can be sent via the application) and how they can benefit from locationbased services (for example, interactive navigation to the next auto repair garage, towing services, or car rental). The demo was well received by the market and within the groups newly set-up network of insurance industries. SAP Research Switzerland is proud of this accomplishment that its researchers, in close collaboration with partners a from academia and industry, were abl able to achieve.

Darmstadt: ADiWa Launched at BMBF Research Day


On Thursday, February 5, 2009, Andreas Storm, the parliamentary secretary of state at the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF), officially marked the start of ADiWa, an alliance for the digital flow of goods, in Darmstadt, Germany. The German government sponsored research project aims to drive the digitalization of flows of goods, ultimately creating universal data collection and analysis, so that companies and consumers can, in the future, tap into all the advantages of the Internet of Things. By forming ADiWa, Germanys leading software companies plan to make this trend accessible to enterprises and customers. The SAP Research Center Darmstadt is coordinating and conducting research with partners from the business and academic worlds to optimize business processes by making them completely digital. Researchers are looking into technologies for business applications that design, execute, and control complex and dynamic business processes using the Internet of Things. The project is part of the high-tech strategy that the German federal government has adopted to transform Germany into one of the most research-friendly countries in the h world. The SAP Research stadt Center Darmstadt is glad to participate in and lead t this important project.

Enabled with the respective technology, the product will know, for example, where it has been produced or what day it has been sold. It can therefore provide the (control) system with realtime information. With these technologies, manufacturing processes can be streamlined to enhance customer services (for example, mobile product recommendations) and, more generally, to bridge the gap between the devices in the real world, business management systems, and users of these systems.

In addition to optimizing access to the stored knowledge, information about products from all available sources can be collected, compiled, and presented in a user-friendly manner within one comprehensive knowledge base. Because information about a companys individual products is scattered over various sources office documents, manuals, e-mails, and databases as well as Web 2.0 resources like blogs, wikis, or forums locating and tracking this data is a tedious and time-consuming

task. Using semantics, implicit information about the supply chain and product lifecycle can be derived from the various explicit heterogeneous sources, integrated, and provided on a platform to end users with a personalized view of the data. SAP Research is working on developing digital product memory technologies through its participation in the ADiWa, Aletheia, and SemProM projects. SemProM focuses on the individual

Customers and Partners I SAP Research Report 2009/2010 I 35

products memory, Aletheia on finding and harmonizing product-related information from different sources, and ADiWa on optimizing access to the stored knowledge. These projects are conducted in collaboration with partners, including the German Research Center for Artificial Intelligence (DFKI), Siemens, BMW Group, Deutsche Post DHL, 7x4 Pharma, Globus SB-Warenhaus, ABB, Fraunhofer IIS, Software AG, ubigrate, DB Schenker, Otto, Freie Universitt Berlin, and the Technische Universitt Dresden. www.adiwa.net www.aletheia-projekt.de www.semprom.org Business Grids Business grid is a term that SAP Research has coined to describe the IT infrastructure and management tools required to run enterprise applications in a secure, dependable, efficient, and transparent way. A huge benefit can be provided for customers and partners with business grids. They reduce operational costs by optimizing efficiency and resource consumption in terms of technical (compute, storage, and network), environmental (power), and human (manual operational effort) resources. They provide transparent and holistic understanding to system providers by enabling end-to-end management approaches, by integrating governance measures into the management procedures, and by operating the IT as a business (IT ERP). Finally, business grids simplify the usage of IT systems by automating procedures and increasing autonomy, thus eventually allowing for highly flexible and adaptive operations. One facet of business grids is cloud computing.

Cloud Computing Cloud computing enables the provision of IT and software as a service rather than a product. Cloud computing is changing the way people work and companies operate, allowing digital technology to penetrate all dimensions of the economy and society. It facilitates access and empowers individuals and small companies to participate in the information economy on par with large companies. Large companies may also use cloud computing more often to reduce operational costs, particularly those of their IT systems. While exposing both data and code to a third party rather than keeping them in-house creates a different set of vulnerabilities to those that companies are used to today, the security models of cloud computing are being further developed, and cloud computing will certainly give companies a competitive edge. Using the Web as a platform, services will be a fundamental element of the online economy and will underlie virtually all business and government activities, such as electronic commerce within and across organizational boundaries, enterprise applications, telecommunication systems, energy and utilities, healthcare, travel and entertainment, and more. Through virtualization and cloud computing, the notion of a servicebased online economy is becoming a reality. Virtualization technologies, meaning applications or machinery that is emulated on a computer or a network, help realize more adaptive infrastructures. Virtualization is a key enabler of cloud computing because it assists data centers in managing their resources more efficiently. SAP Research is engaged with leading industrial partners, such as HP, IBM, and Intel, along with renowned academic partners from the

With all the skepticism about cloud computing, IBM and SAP demonstrated at CeBit 2009 how clients can run their enterprise applications in the cloud, including the migration of workloads across physical servers and across data centers, based on the EU-funded RESERVOIR cloud computing project. These types of examples are sorely needed to convince the industry that the cloud is ready. Together we are also contributing to IBMs vision of a smarter planet, which is based on objects that are interconnected, integrated, and intelligent. When it comes to things like food supply chains, SAP is doing a lot of the point connections between farm to truck to shelf to consumer, thus bringing part of the vision to reality.

grid community to explore how this vision can lead to actual solutions for SAPs portfolio. Virtualization and cloud computing are two of the technology trends that give rise to the expectation that business grids can be made a reality in the near future. SAP Research is investigating how these technologies can be used to reduce the total cost of ownership of existing IT and application landscapes as well as how future applications can be enhanced to take maximum advantage of scalable cloud resources. The current research considers areas such as performance engineering, dependency tracing, distributed monitoring, scalability, and security. The RESERVOIR project is working to develop breakthrough systems and service technologies that will serve as the infrastructure for cloud computing. SAP researchers and other project partners are achieving this goal through the creative coupling of virtualization and business service management techniques. SLA@SOI also has the vision of a business-ready serviceoriented infrastructure empowering the service economy in a flexible and dependable way. The project is contributing to the further evolution toward a service-oriented economy where ITbased services can be flexibly traded as economic goods. www.reservoir-fp7.eu www.sla-at-soi.eu

Electronics Top Technology Cluster in the Rhine-Neckar region of Germany. This is one of five clusters throughout the country supported by Germanys Federal Ministry of Education and Research. The initiative will take place over the next five years with the aim of creating a German Silicon Valley by bringing together the forces of researchers and businesses. Clusters were selected by a special jury based on their potential, innovative strategy, and practical approach, combining financial participation from businesses and private investors. Organic electronics explores the use of new organic materials that are ecofriendly, easy to recycle, and printable. This field makes innovative applications possible, particularly in areas where electronic components need to be produced more cheaply and in larger quantities. One example scenario is a smart package for meat that registers and displays the surrounding temperature to which the meat has been exposed important information for vendors, distributors, government authorities, and, of course, end consumers.

in technology. Companies ability to adapt and prosper in such an environment is dependent, to a great degree, on how they handle the flow of new information and tie it in with their business objectives through the use of information technology. This is business process management. Within this research program, SAP Research is contributing to the crystallization of business processes and improving existing SAP solutions by augmenting productspecific research and development efforts with applied academic research. Thanks to the improvement of business process management technologies, SAPs customers can run their businesses better. SAP Research works directly with a number of customers, including the Commonwealth Bank of Australia, Australia Post, and Unilever, to further drive its efforts in this area. The group played a successful role in the SAP-internal Galaxy transfer project, thus in part contributing to the SAP NetWeaver Business Process Management (SAP NetWeaver BPM) component that was put on the market in 2009. With the new version of SAP NetWeaver BPM, companies can implement business processes for requests, posting, and approval, for example without major additional programming effort. This type of process composition used to require considerable manual work by IT consultants to harmonize services and match and map each of the partner fields between the interfaces involved. The system now automatically identifies which fields are highly likely to match, including name, address, currency, and date fields. The user is only required to check that the suggested field pairs do

actually match a process that obviously takes much less time than manually scrolling through the long lists of fields to find the right pairs. Pattern matching is, however, just one example of a research transfer into the product. In cooperation with universities and, even more closely, with SAPs product developers, SAP Researchers in Dresden, Karlsruhe, Darmstadt, Belfast, Sophia Antipolis, and Brisbane were responsible for developments ranging from tools for standardized business process modeling to functions that automatically identify potential security flaws in flexibly configured business processes. This cooperation resulted in the incorporation of their ideas into product development.

Researchers also collaborated with the SAP NetWeaver development team to go one step further and develop Gravity, a new business process management function within Google Wave. The tool provides real-time, cloud-based collaborative BPM technology to create models that can be imported into SAP NetWeaver BPM. All of these functions help companies realize their vision of service-oriented architecture (SOA). With this technology, customers can save both time and money by easily modeling and implementing their own specific business processes on the basis of existing standard software and react more quickly to market changes.

Gravity Prototype Makes Big Waves


Gravity is a prototype developed by the SAP Research Center Brisbane and the SAP NetWeaver technology platform development team, providing real-time, cloud-based collaborative business process modeling within Google Wave. Google Wave is a collaboration platform combining features of e-mail, social networking, wikis, and instant messaging into one integrated browser-based client. SAP embedded Gravity is a Google Wave gadget that can be added within the Wave client, run in a Web browser, and added to any wave. Leveraging the collaborative features of Google Wave, all business process modeling activities are published in real time to all other wave participants. In addition to the real-time notification of model content changes to wave participants, Gravity has collaboration features, including color coding for each modeler, version tracking, and asynchronous and synchronous editing. It also enables robots automated components acting as wave participants to be leveraged to syntactically correct the model on the fly. Models can then be exported using BPMN 2.0 XML and imported into the SAP NetWeaver Business Process Management component for further refinement and execution. Gravity proves how new technology can be systematically leveraged to facilitate what business process management is really about: user collaboration within and across departments of one or more organizations.

Unified Service Description Language Accelerates the Internet of Services


a significant achievement of Sap research and projects such as THESEUS/TEXO, PremiumServices, and Smart Services CRC in the internet of Services is the unified Services description Language (uSdL). uSdL allows services to be exposed beyond company firewalls to business networks and communities and out to the Web. uSdL goes beyond previous proposals for describing business and technical services. Business aspects of services such as ownership and custodianship, availability and pricing, and service access and versioning constraints as well as legal and technical aspects are supported. uSdL is the first stage of widely exposing services so that consumers can discover details of services without reliance on service providers. in addition, third parties can repurpose services through new channels and applications. utility services for cloud hosting and business-tobusiness interoperability can also be selected based on their capabilities to provide outsourced support for services. the general design principle was to create a unifying entry point into the overall set of service metadata, which, in the end, comprises several artifacts in different formats. the role of uSdL is to enable a number of internet of Services use cases, among them discovery and matchmaking, aggregation, and bundling.

broadband, communications, and the digital economy in australia, are also common practice for Sap research in this region. Sap research pretoria and the Sap meraka unit for technology development (utd), with support from the South african department of Science and technology and the meraka institute of the Council for Scientific and industrial research (CSir), are spearheading the BRICS Research Interest Group. this initiative is aiming to engage institutions in Brazil, russia, india, China, and South africa (BriCS) and european countries to develop a joint vision and research agenda for technologies for emerging economies. the group is also identifying further opportunities for collaboration on eu Framework 7 projects. Segopotso moshapo, researcher at the utd, is the iCt national Contact point for South africa with regard to participation in the eu Fp7 programme. in this role, he supports the South African Department of Science and Technology with its international partnership activities. in the united Kingdom, Ben greene, director of the Sap research Center Belfast, is an active member of the UK Future Internet Steering Group. this group is working to develop a consensus on uK investment in the Future internet. it also feeds these outputs to the uK government and acts as an influencer in european Commission research programs, encouraging uK participation. greene is also the chairman of the northern ireland branch of the Institution of Engineering and Technology (iet). the iet is the professional body that provides support and professional development for persons involved in engineering and it careers. www.theiet.org

eu Commissioner reding promotes women in iCt


Women in Technology Sap recognizes the necessity to increase womens participation in the iCt sector and to bring about a major breakthrough in regard to womens participation in the knowledge-based economy. getting more women into iCt careers is not only a gender equality issue of today but also an economic necessity and a force for change and growth in this key sector on a global scale. Sap research is striving to enhance its research activities to cover dedicated gender aspects and support womens scientific and technical careers. major activities in this area were Saps signing of the Code of Best Practices for Women and ICTs and its participation in the European Center for Women and Technology (ECWT). the eCWt is a sustainable european multistakeholder partnership promoting regional innovation and high-level expertise in women and technology development from business, government, academia, and the nonprofit sector. one important partner in determining future opportunities for joint research in the gender area with significant expertise in supporting technology careers for women is the Steinbeis-europazentrum in Stuttgart, germany.

and, being combined, be developed into value-added services. the creation of and seamless accessibility to these services is facilitated by an open platform and interface architecture, as provided by service-oriented architecture (Soa), semantic Web, cloud computing, and additional service-related developments and disciplines. Sap research recently launched the Internet of Services community. the community aims to foster collaboration on, dissemination of, and adoption of internet of Services concepts, technologies, and use cases in order to leverage the significant investments and experience gained to date. it is a company-neutral, nonprofit open forum for researchers, technology vendors, service providers, and end users. www.internet-of-services.com more information available on the enclosed Cd Business Webs Sap research is further pursuing the possibilities of the Future internet by exploring the use of business webs in the internet of Services. Services provided through the internet serve a dual purpose: they are utilized by consumers as well as by technical systems to access business functionality that is provided remotely by business partners. Sap research and its partners are developing a new platform to make services tradable on the Internet, to develop them into value-added services, and to integrate customized services into the environment of service consumers. TEXO, an internet of Services research project within the tHeSeuS research program initiated by the BmWi, will

Creating Solutions for the Greater Good


many of the projects in which Sap research collaborates aim to develop a solution or application that, in the end, contributes positively to the world around us. By applying information technology in new ways and in new areas, new and exciting developments are already benefiting a great number of people and societies. The Internet of Services Societies function thanks to the services that help run them be it of a technical, business, or societal nature. the service sector has become the biggest and fastest-growing business sector in the world, and, for the first time ever, it now employs more people worldwide than any other sector. in order for this growth to continue, services need to become more widely and easily available and should also yield higher productivity. through the clever use of information technology, the internet of Services is the realization of global supply and provisioning of services on an Internet scale that enables their exposure, adaption, trade, and consumption anywhere, anytime, and in any way. Sap research is exploring different aspects of the service sector to determine which new and existing services can be incorporated into the internet of Services

the Commission welcomes Saps ambition to use the results of european and national projects to build a Future internet of Services. By opening up research results to broader communities, projects generate positive market dynamics that will favor european innovation. the universal Services description Language, to which some eusponsored initiatives have contributed, has the potential to accelerate and make more flexible the deployment of new internet services with a significant impact on european businesses and citizens.

help retrieve, coordinate, develop, and access services. it is aiming to provide businesses with an infrastructure for new Web-based applications and services on the basis of Soa. the project addresses the full lifecycle of these services, from innovation to consumption via intuitive interfaces and technical systems. the infrastructure will be independent of any individual company and will provide a flexible, semanticdriven interface between service providers and their customers. With the new TEXO Service Marketplace, organizations, especially small businesses and midsize companies and users, will become more agile in todays economy by focusing on their core competencies and using externally provided services for noncore activities. Small businesses and midsize companies and other businesses and organizations will also be able to offer and publish their own services, to extend their product and service offering, and to represent their business know-how to a larger community of potential service users. this new platform is already in a pilot phase with Sap Business allin-one solution customers. Work on teXo is led by Sap research in collaboration with partners from academia and industry, including empolis, intelligent views gmbh, ontoprise, Siemens, Fraunhofer gesellschaft, Fzi Forschungszentrum informatik Karlsruhe, the german research Center for artificial intelligence, technische universitt darmstadt, technische universitt dresden, technische universitt mnchen, and the Karlsruhe institute of technology. in 2009, the following tHeSeuS Sme initiatives joined the teXo project: SerapHim, openXchange, green mobility, jCpeX!, SaBine, and B2BitC.

www.theseus-programm.de /en-us/theseus-applicationscenarios/texo more information available on the enclosed Cd Public Security public and homeland security have become the central focus of many countries since the recent occurrence of natural disasters and political conflicts around the world. our modern and open society is highly complex and, therefore, vulnerable. it must be protected from a wide variety of threats, including major catastrophic events with possibly grave consequences. Sap research has recognized the crucial role that information technology can play in managing these challenges and radically improving the safety and security of a society. the group is investigating how public securityrelated organizations in our communities can be supported by IT systems that serve both their day-to-day needs and agency-specific activities as well as integrate with other systems in emergency situations. the SoKNOS (Service-oriented architectures Supporting networks of public Security) research project has successfully optimized coordination and communication across rescue organizations in times of an emergency. the SoKnoS service-oriented platform enables users, in both their daily work and in crisis situations, to find, exchange, and evaluate data and information faster, to plan and evaluate operations, and to collaborate with public authorities, organizations, and experts.

prior to an event, the platform will further enhance the safety and security of citizens and communities as well as the permanent delivery of critical functions, including transportation, sanitation, energy, water, and health and educational services. Cities can leverage their existing sensorial platforms to manage events in real time with a simulation based on artificial intelligence, allowing for the planning of alternatives according to different scenarios and the integration of information sources into a state-of-the-art closed loop of converged analytics. www.soknos.de the role of iCt in developing economy societies is becoming ever more prominent, as iCt becomes more pervasive. the meraka institute leverages international science and technology collaboration to contribute to and take advantage of international efforts in addressing the digital divide. in pursuit of these goals, the partnership with Sap research provides an excellent vehicle to focus on technologies for emerging economies. our partnership has already shown impact, most notably in the rural business, health, and small and midsize enterprise spaces. one exciting initiative is the overture project, aimed at proving a mobile services platform for very small enterprises in emerging economies. more information available on the enclosed Cd Technologies for Emerging Economies research indicates that very little is known about the technology needs of emerging economies, that very little research is done in this area, and that first-world technology solutions are a poor fit for developing regions. these regions show good economic potential, having sustained economic growth over the years, with a low-to-moderate income per capita and human development index. in the emerging economies research field, there is currently a strong focus on the BriCS countries: Brazil, russia, india, China, and South africa, with particular interest in these areas small businesses, microbusinesses, and midsize companies. Sap research, led particularly by its research center in Pretoria, South Africa, has recognized the great potential in emerging economies. this potential relates not only to the chance for Sap to break into this fast-growing market but also to the opportunity to find ways

to use it to positively influence the development and sustainability of these regions. With the establishment of the SAP Meraka Unit for Technology Development, Sap research is contributing to the building of local research capacity to address topics related to, for instance, industry solutions for very small businesses and patient health systems. the research being conducted is expected to afford billions of underprivileged people in these regions the opportunity to use technology to im-

infrastructure, governance, innovation outcomes, and methods and tools. in collaboration with the university of the Witwatersrands School of public Health and with the support of the provincial department of Health in mpumalanga, South africa, the projects core activities are centered around three primary healthcare clinics agincourt, Xanthia, and thokozani in the Bushbuck Ridge Municipality in South africa. the larger ecosystem includes neighboring clinics, private healthcare providers, and a district and regional hospital making it an ideal environment for developing, testing, and evaluating new primary healthcare systems. more information available on the enclosed Cd the C@R (Collaboration at rural) project, which was successfully completed in September 2009, worked with small businesses and microbusinesses to stimulate local economic development using information and communication technologies. researchers applied end usercentric development methodologies to introduce collaborative working environments as key enablers to catalyze rural development.

a collaborative, Soa-based platform has been implemented to help small businesses become more profitable in their daily operations with a mobile delivery system. the idea was to reduce transaction costs through the establishment of virtual buying cooperatives involving mobile phone usage, consisting of a large number of small spaza shops, and coordinated by local information service providers, so-called infopreneurs. the nine-month live pilot operation showed very promising end-user adoption statistics, resulting in an increased availability of basic goods for rural communities in South africa. project results are also being applied to further initiatives within this area. C@r partners included the Council for Scientific and industrial research, meraka institute, the Food and agriculture organization of the u.n., nokia, philips, the european Space agency, Fraunhofer Fit, Szegedi tudomnyegyetem, and Helsingin kauppakorkeakoulu. www.c-rural.eu more information available on the enclosed Cd

Pretoria: Exploring Mobile Phone Technologies in Emerging Economies


the establishment of overture, using the living lab methodology in the context of emerging economies, was a great highlight for Sap research pretoria. the project focuses on how very small businesses in the plumbing industry can benefit from serviceoriented mobile phonerelated software platforms and services in a cost-effective and efficient manner. a typical plumber makes money in three ways: a fixed callout fee, an hourly rate based on the time spent per job, and a markup on the parts used. of their daily business, 90% reaches them early in the morning of the same day this is a planning nightmare. designing software solutions for such users in an emerging economy is a challenge, as they are diverse in terms of culture, language, and technology needs and have differing levels of iCt literacy. the living labs methodology, where users are involved hands-on from the conceptualization phase of a new software product to the development lifecycle, is ideal here.

Karlsruhe: Future Energy


a recent remarkable development at the Sap research Center Karlsruhe was its establishment of the new future energy research field. Future energy aims to develop novel information and communication technologies and integrate existing solutions that are required to increase the efficiency of todays energy-provisioning infrastructures. the limited availability and unfavorable carbon footprint of fossil energy resources and profound changes in the energy market regulation directives worldwide, as well as the increasing share of highly distributed renewable energy sources, pose new challenges to energy market participants. the use of the Internet to help optimize energy-related processes and electric mobility is an additional hot topic in this new field. Sap researchers in Karlsruhe are helping to pioneer these new technologies. they recognize that, in order to achieve these goals, multidisciplinary research and continuous dialogue between industry and market experts, customers, researchers, and government agencies are of key importance.

Green Energy many countries and states worldwide are trying to find a new balance in the energy sector in order to provide clean, secure, and affordable energy. deregulation of the energy market is a key driver toward an energy landscape with increasingly decentralized and diversified power generation across industrial and private producers. in other regions, factors such as the increasing awareness of climate change are playing a key role. these shifts will have a dominant effect on existing infrastructure, technologies, and business practices, reshaping the worlds energy map and associated business domains. However, a deregulated, more efficient energy market is impossible to achieve without an adequate IT infrastructure. in a highly deregulated environment, it must be possible to better integrate volatile and distributed renewable energy sources and to provide the critical links between energy grid operations, dynamic energy markets, and utility consumers. Sap research is exploring new, innovative solutions to address the challenges of this emerging infrastructure.

Smarter Power Supply in the near future, an increasing number of distributed and volatile energy resources will need to be coordinated and aligned with consumers. a marketplace acts as a tool for exchanging information about supply and demand and for determining a fair price that encourages the efficient use of energy. one of the key objectives is the transformation of the currently dominant system of demand-driven generation of power into an adaptive system in which the demand side is optimized according to the supply of clean power from renewable resources. Smart devices, such as household appliances that can adapt themselves automatically, are a key factor to achieving this goal and reducing the need for expensive measures to cover energy demand peaks, thereby reducing the overall costs of energy. the MeRegio research project is exploring new ways of communication in the energy market that support the alignment of energy production and consumption. Based on information and communication technology, grid

management can be improved, access to the market is simplified for operators of distributed energy resources, better procurement options are provided for small businesses and midsize companies, and a large number of private consumers can be involved in demandside management programs. thus, the integration of renewable energy sources is optimized and energy efficiency is increased. a central component of meregio is the E-Energy Market Platform, built by Sap. enBW energie Baden-Wrttemberg, aBB, iBm deutschland, Systemplan, and the Karlsruhe institute of technology are collaborating, along with Sap research, on the meregio project. www.meregio.de more information available on the enclosed Cd Smarter Cars automobiles and other motor vehicles emit a number of pollutants into our environment, including carbon dioxide. as more and more automobile companies introduce hybrid and fully electric cars into the market, additional research is being done to drive these fuel alternatives even further. the Future Fleet project aims at integrating up to 100 electric cars into SAPs regular company car fleet. an appropriate charging infrastructure for these full electric vehicles will be installed at Sap premises by the project partner mvv energie. as the vehicles are charged with 100% renewable energy, the electric company car fleet can become a veritable green fleet. the prototype provides researchers from Sap, the institute for applied ecology in Berlin, and the institute for Socialecological research in Frankfurt am

main, germany, with the opportunity to investigate new requirements of electrical mobility. these needs include the addition of parameters such as length and duration of a planned trip, range of the vehicles, and loading capacities along the route. additional scientific support for the energy system implications is being provided by the Hochschule mannheim. the e-mobility research project, conducted along with rWe, is also exploring the possibilities of electric mobility by merging concepts from the utilities and telecommunication domains. the goal is to integrate mobile services into open e-mobility service platforms, creating a universal network of public and private charging stations combined with an innovative billing system for fast, safe, and convenient charging of electric automobiles. additional services and processes being considered include registration and authentication of e-vehicles or customers at charging spots, remote maintenance and remote analysis of charging spots, and roaming between utilities and service providers. a further project is studying the use of electric vehicles in order to avoid peak demands in power consumption. Sap research is looking at how information and communication technology can support the use of car batteries as an energy storage that unburdens the grid. MeRegioMobil uses the infrastructure created by the meregio project and complements it with aspects like identification of vehicles, operator-independent accounting of the volume of purchased electricity, tariff, and contract management. http://meregiomobil.forschung. kit.edu

E-Energy Market Platform Allows for Smart Energy Usage


renewable energy is an important building block in our future energy supply. the E-Energy Market Platform, developed as part of the meregio project, enables market participants to engage actively in smart electricity grids. it provides the tools to interact with each other and seamlessly adapt to market conditions, thus making full use of renewable and distributed energy resources. the platform acts as a central hub for information exchange and collaborative business processes, including the trading of energy products and energy-related services. using a Web-based interface, consumers can set product preferences, review their energy and emissions footprints, and engage in power trading. through dynamic prices and consumption adaptation, consumers can benefit from low prices by slightly adapting their behavior of power consumption. For example, a dishwasher could decide by itself, after consulting with the e-energy market platform, when it runs and with what type of power in order to achieve a favorable electricity rate. thanks to this interaction, the alignment of supply and demand of power and renewable energy sources can be optimized. on a large scale, this has the potential to make the power grid operate more efficiently and more effectively that is, by reducing the need for backup generators at times of high demand, since these loads can be shifted to other lowdemand times.
