ICS Dr. G. Roscher GmbH,
Germany
The ICS
Dr. G. Roscher GmbH (ICS - Intelligent Computer Systems) is a SME in Klein
Ammensleben near Magdeburg. ICS was founded in 1991, to develop, manufacture and
trade Intelligent Computer Systems – ICS - for medical and industrial
applications.
The
topic is the innovative method for real time analysis and recognition of noisy
biological signals.
The EEG
system BrainScope consists of efficient algorithms implemented for a powerful
multi-processor system that recognizes EEG activity as Event Related Potentials
– ERP - in real-time. These methods are integrated into a powerful graphic
user interface and use a Data Base & Knowledge Management System.
Incorporated into the system are state of the art EEGSYS algorithms from the
NIMH (Washington / USA) for mappings, FFT, etc. A video-system is integrated in
the system for watching the patient.
The ECG
system HeartScope based on the technology of the BrainScope. With the HeartScope
a physician can recognize the electrical activity of the heart in the dynamic in
time and space in real-time. Portable devices - PhysioCord - using low power
technology can store, recognize and transmit biological signals as the ECG
wireless and in open field.
The
real-time recognition is realized by using the following methods:
-
Patented method of Virtual Sources,
-
Neural Networks for feature extraction,
-
Fuzzy-logic for pattern recognition,
-
Evolutionary algorithms for classification,
-
Dynamic lists for internal management of signal description in real-time,
-
Data Base System for the management of signals and clinical data,
-
Knowledge Management System for the acquisition of the knowledge of the experts,
-
Web-technologies,
-
Communication technologies,
-
High performance multiprocessor systems - Grid
-
portable devices using lowest power technology for signal acquisition and
wireless data transmission.
The
strategy of the R&D activities is oriented on the application of IST and
will be developed from signals, signal acquisition, classification and
recognition in to knowledge, administered by the Knowledge Management System
(KMS), designed as communicative system, acquiring the knowledge from the
leading experts.
From
1991 to 1997 ICS worked in the Innovation Founding Centre Magdeburg. The success
of the enterprise gives the chance to build the own building in Klein
Ammensleben near Magdeburg in 1997.
The
partner has many and long duration experience in the management of projects in
the design and application of Information and Communication Technologies in the
medical field. ICS has participated in two national and three international
projects [ICS1, …ICS10, www.ICSRoscher.de/projects.htm]
In 1968
he graduated from the Faculty of Mathematics of the "Otto-von-Guericke
Universität" Magdeburg as Dipl.-Math. specialized in Computer Science by
the development of interpreters. From 1969 to 1984 he was working as chief of
the software development in the Werkzeugmaschinenkombinat Berlin, and as head of
the development of the integrated CAD/CAM system RTV – Rechnerunterstütze
Technische Vorbereitung. In 1975 he got the degree Dr.-Ing. of technology of the
"Otto-von-Guericke Universität" Magdeburg by the development of
descriptive languages and a compiler-generator for CAD/CAM solutions for high
integrated machine tool systems. From 1984 to 1994 he was working in the "Institut
für Neurobiologie und Hirnforschung der Akademie der Wissenschaften" and
in the "Institut für Physiologie" of the "Otto-von-Guericke
Universität" Magdeburg interested in research activities related to the
function of the human thinking, using methods of computer science. Since 1994 he
is CEO of the ICS Dr. G. Roscher GmbH with more than 35 years of experience in
project management.
