6th DACH+ Conference on Energy informatics (EnInf 2017)

Computer Science - Research and Development

Abstract

This volume contains the scientific contributions accepted for presentation at the 6th DACH+ Conference on Energy Informatics (EnInf 2017). The objective of the DACH+ conference series on Energy Informatics is to promote the research, development, and implementation of information and communication technologies in the energy domain and to foster the exchange between academia, industry, and service providers across Germany (D), Austria (A) and Switzerland (CH) and their neighboring countries (DACH+). The Energy Informatics conference series is a joint initiative of the Swiss Federal Office of Energy, the Austrian Ministry for Transport, Innovation and Technology, and the German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy and is also supported by the German Informatics Society, the Austrian Computer Society, and the Swiss Informatics Society. The 6th edition of the conference took place in Lugano, Switzerland, on October 5-6, 2017 at the Università della Svizzera italiana (USI). More than 90 participants from six different European countries as well as the USA attended the event. This makes the 2017 edition one of the most successful in terms of number of attendees and diversity. The conference provided a forum for very vivid discussion between researchers and also offered the opportunity to exchange ideas and experiences with several representatives from industry. As in the previous years, the conference was accompanied by a Ph.D. workshop organized by Prof. Sebastian Lehnhoff and Dr. Astrid Niesse, which took place the day before the conference. We would like to thank the B Silvia Santini
