The benefits of robotic process automation (RPA) are highly related to the usage of commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) software products that can be easily implemented and customized by business units. But, how to find the best fitting RPA product for a specific situation that creates the expected benefits? This question is related to the general area of software evaluation and selection. In the face of more than 75 RPA products currently on the market, guidance considering those specifics is required. Therefore, this chapter proposes a criteria-based selection method specifically for RPA. The method includes a quantitative evaluation of costs and benefits as well as a qualitative utility analysis based on functional criteria. By using the visualization of financial implications (VOFI) method, an application-oriented structure is provided that opposes the total cost of ownership to the time savings times salary (TSTS). For the utility analysis a detailed list of functional criteria for RPA is offered. The whole method is based on a multi-vocal review of scientific and non-scholarly literature including publications by business practitioners, consultants, and vendors. The application of the method is illustrated by a concrete RPA example. The illustrated
structures, templates, and criteria can be directly utilized by practitioners in their real-life RPA implementations. In addition, a normative decision process for selecting RPA alternatives is proposed before the chapter closes with a discussion and outlook.
Einfluss von Künstlicher Intelligenz auf Customer Journeys am Beispiel von intelligentem Parken
(2021)
Im Konsumentenmarkt entstehen vermehrt neue Anwendungen von Künstlicher
Intelligenz (KI). Zunehmend drängen auch Geräte und Dienste in den Markt, die
eigenständig über das Internet kommunizieren. Dadurch können diese Geräte und
Dienste mit neuartigen KI-basierten Diensten verbessert werden. Solche Dienste
können die Art und Weise beeinflussen, wie Kunden kommerzielle Entscheidungen
treffen und somit das Kundenerlebnis maßgeblich verändern. Der Einfluss von KI
auf kommerzielle Interaktionen wurde bisher noch nicht umfassend untersucht.
Basierend auf einem Framework, welches einen ersten Überblick über die Effekte
von KI auf kommerzielle Interaktionen gibt, wird in diesem Kapitel der Einfluss von KI auf Customer Journeys am konkreten Anwendungsfall des intelligenten Parkens analysiert. Die daraus gewonnenen Erkenntnisse können in der Praxis als Grundlage
genutzt werden, um das Potenzial von KI zu verstehen und bei der Gestaltung eigener Customer Journeys umzusetzen.
Glucose oxidase (GOx) is an enzyme frequently used in glucose biosensors. As increased temperatures can enhance the performance of electrochemical sensors, we investigated the impact of temperature pulses on GOx that was drop-coated on flattened Pt microwires. The wires were heated by an alternating current. The sensitivity towards glucose and the temperature stability of GOx was investigated by amperometry. An up to 22-fold increase of sensitivity was observed. Spatially resolved enzyme activity changes were investigated via scanning electrochemical microscopy. The application of short (<100 ms) heat pulses was associated with less thermal inactivation of the immobilized GOx than long-term heating.
