Overview: Die Planung der Produktion eines Unternehmens ist eine äußerst komplexe Aufgabe, die eine Aufspaltung in mittel- und kurzfristige Planungsebenen erfordert. Diese Ebenen sind durch unterschiedliche Detaillierungsgrade gekennzeichnet und in der Regel durch Aggregations- und Disaggregationsmechanismen verbunden. Die Gestaltung der mittelfristigen Planungsebene, häufig eine Aggregation der detaillierten Produktion, ist in Wissenschaft und Praxis bis heute nicht zufriedenstellend gelöst...Ausgehend von der Aggregation der Nachfrage untersucht Erich Kleindienst zunächst die traditionellen

Overview: Teachers spend a great amount of time grading free text answer type questions. To encounter this challenge an auto-grader system is proposed. The thesis illustrates that the auto-grader can be approached with simple, recurrent, and Transformer-based neural networks. Hereby, the Transformer-based models has the best performance. It is further demonstrated that geometric representation of question-answer pairs is a worthwhile strategy for an auto-grader. Finally, it is indicated that while the auto-grader could potentially assist teachers in saving time with grading, it is not yet on a
