In materials science, complex relationships exist between the properties of materials and their composition and processing. For this reason, digital transformation in this domain presents a particularly great challenge.
At Fraunhofer ISC, we are facing this challenge with a broad-based strategy that closely links work at all relevant levels. In this context, we have set ourselves the goal of developing toward Lab 4.0, documenting scientific processes in a central information system in a way that can be read by machines, and standardizing data structures in accordance with international standards.
