Introduction
I work at the Chair of Business Information Systems at the University of Rostock. My research focuses on context-sensitive assistance for occupational self-management:
Work intensification and blurring boundaries between life domains pose major challenges in today’s society. The aim of the research is to use the potential of IT in order to support self-reflection and self-development by showing developments over time (e.g. in workload or vitality) and providing situational guidance.

Computational models in biology encode molecular and cell biological processes. Many of these models can be represented as biochemical reaction networks. Studying such networks, one is mostly interested in systems that share similar reactions and mechanisms. Typical goals of an investigation thus include understanding of model parts, identification...
People are increasingly exposed to stress these days. There are numerous possible triggers for stress, e.g. multitasking or frequent interruptions. Although stress cannot be considered fundamentally negative, high stress levels can lead to negative health effects like depression or burnout. Therefore, it is important to act early in order to preven...
The development of the knowledge-based society and ubiquitous information technology offer individuals a variety of personal and professional possibilities. At the same time, increasing flexibility in modern everyday life can lead to high working pressure and blurring boundaries between life domains. Thus, self-management skills steadily grow in im...
In today’s working world, work intensification and blurring boundaries between life domains pose major challenges. Stress resulting from high working pressure combined with a lack of opportunities for recre-ation can cause serious physical and mental health problems. As sensor technology has become ubiqui-tous and enables new kinds of data collecti...
Nowadays, many organisations steadily have to face new challenges due to an increasing competition, new technologies and manpower shortage. While dealing with this growth of challenges and confronting employees with higher demands, organizations have to pay attention to employees’ personal resources that are connected to their well-being and health...
Health assistant tools at the workplace may contribute to preventing work-related absenteeism, increasing overall employee satisfaction, and reducing the costs of sickness or presenteeism in the long term. The tools may be integrated into a digital corporate health management strategy. Despite their huge potential, a major drawback of common tools...
Modern information technology has a high potential to assist people in their daily life via assistance systems. However, such systems surprisingly still lack appropriate solutions tackling the challenges of modern work-life. By now, work aspects such as productivity have been considered mainly separately from other aspects such as one’s health and...
A common theme across phenomena like vitality, vigor, and fatigue is that they all refer to some aspect of energy. Since experience sampling methodology has become a major approach, there is a significant need for a time-effective and valid measure of energetic activation. In this study, we develop and examine the validity of a single-item pictoria...
While the current pandemic amplifies the trend of highly self-responsible and flexible work, many employees still struggle addressing the resulting self-management challenges like balancing strain and recovery. Maintaining health of employees is a major concern of organizations to remain competitive, but in the context of highly individual work, th...
With the ongoing spread of smart devices, self-tracking increasingly finds its way into everyday use. Even a community has formed around it, called the “Quantified Selfers”. A pivotal question to further develop appropriate tools tailored to people’s needs in the future is: For what purposes do people try to systematically track their data digitall...
Digitalization of work increasingly receives attention due to the wide spread of easy to use mobile computing devices. However, it remains unclear how the potential of ubiquitous information systems can be tapped in domains with less formal structured processes such as in personal services. Up to now, concepts such as Adaptive Case Management have...
When teaching enterprise modelling in academic settings, it is challenging to combine theory with hands-on experience. We have created an assignment for iterative prototyping of a self-management applicationfor students using executable models as a means of vividness. The completion of the task included the examination of some self-management theor...
Today’s working world can be characterized by an increase in flexibility, complexity and speed. For employees and organizations as a whole, it is challenging to keep pace to market requirements while at the same time retaining health, productivity and well-being of their employees. In this paper, we focus on human energy as one particularly relevan...
Individual resource status plays a major role in the literature on employee strain and recovery. Many theoretical accounts draw on the analogy between humans and batteries to describe the ups and downs in individual resource status over time. Taking the battery-metaphor literally, we have developed a pictorial scale to capture momentary resource st...

Dabei handelt es sich beispielsweise um in das Sichtfeld eingeblendete 3D-Explosionszeichnungen oder...
Today's working world can be characterized by an increase in flexibility, complexity and speed. For employees, it is challenging to keep pace to dynamic professional requirements and to constantly collect and prioritize necessary tasks in order to stay well-organized. While there is a plethora of IT-supported to-do lists that help to remember impor...
In view of the ongoing alarming numbers of incapacity to work due to mental illness, it is important to pay attention to the factors that maintain long-term productivity of the individual. Recent research is concerned with examining relevant parameters that are measurable through technology and play a role for recognizing productivity factors such...
The process of digital transformation opens more and more domains to data driven analysis. This also accounts for Process Mining of service processes. This work investigates the use of Process Mining in the domain of Personal Services with a special focus on the Time Perspective and the early stages of the mining process. Based on a literature anal...
Resource theories are dominant models in the domain of occupational stress and recovery. Numerous papers on strain and recovery either expclitly or implcitly draw on the metaphor of batteries to describe the ups and downs in individual resource status over time. This metaphor is ubiquituous in common sense, too. Taking the battery-metaphor literall...
High workload, complex and knowledge-intense tasks as well as increased expectations in respect to flexibility and timeliness give rise to work intensification. This can lead to permanent stress causing serious health problems. Thus, it is a major concern to take measures against stress in order to maintain workers’ health and productivity. While i...
The process of digital transformation opens more and more domains to data driven analysis. This also accounts for Process Mining of service processes. This work investigates the use of Process Mining in the domain of Personal Services focusing on the Social or Organizational Perspective respectively. Documenting research in progress, problems of “t...
Durch die Einführung neuer Methoden und Werkzeuge oder die Veränderung von Arbeitsprozessen, werden neue Anforderungen an die davon betroffenen Mitarbeitenden gestellt. Das kann deren Produktivität, kognitive Performance oder Stresslevel beeinflussen. Um solche Veränderungen erfolgreich umsetzen zu können und gleichzeitig hohe Wirkungen mit geringe...

In this interdisciplinary project of researchers in IT, engineering psychology, and work and organizational psychology we set out to develop and examine tools that facilitate self-tracking, self-reflection, self-regulation, and self-management targeted at sustaining high levels of human energy (i.e., high levels of subjective vitality and low levels of fatigue).
In the current working world two challenges can be observed in particular, a work intensification and blurring boundaries between personal and work life. Stress combined with a lack of opportunities for recreation are hazards to cause ill health. Therefore, self-management is becoming increasingly important, not only with regard to productivity, but especially in terms of maintaining individual motivation, wellbeing, and health.
The availability of various small sensors and their easy integration into everyday life enables new kinds of data collection. Data ranging from heart rate to location can be analysed and combined with data about tasks and time schedule to provide assistance in self-management. The aim of this research project is to develop and test a concept of an context-sensitive assistance system for personal self-management.
