The focus is increasingly shifting to the payout phase of retirement planning. Our experts in the »Retirement Provision and Life Insurance« practice area are examining pension models – from lump-sum payments to flexible options. Using model calculations and simulations, they highlight opportunities, risks, and implications, and develop approaches to ensure more transparent advice, greater clarity, and better consumer protection.

At the Embedded World Exhibition and Conference in Nuremberg, we are presenting a system together with RPTU that fundamentally accelerates the development of embedded AI applications: »Neural Architecture Search Engine (NASE)« with Hardware in the Loop.

In a presentation, our colleague Kai Plociennik explains how complex simulations can be performed faster without complicated programming. Using a multi-hierarchy offloading implementation with OpenMP, computing operations are offloaded across multiple levels of heterogeneous hardware without leaving the familiar OpenMP programming model.

Pension products are complex and difficult to compare. Together with Debeka, we develop scientifically sound models and evaluation frameworks that enable transparent and comprehensible presentation.

Our doctoral students and postdocs conduct research on current topics in »Financial Mathematics« and »Data-Science«.

The ManCon Congress is a trade event in the area of controlling, focusing on current developments and modern management approaches.

Our experts Tania Jacob and Dr. Stefan Mai from the department »Financial Mathematics« are at the event and give insights into the use of data analysis and AI in controlling through various presentations.

As part of the PPSN Conference, the workshop »Quantum versus Classical Optimization: Synergies and Boundaries« takes place, which promotes the exchange of ideas on quantum-based and classical optimization approaches.

Dr. Pascal Halffmann is a co-organizer of the workshop and contributes his expertise to the discussions.
