Systemantics is a computer science office. Our passion is to develop clear, easy to use and helpful concepts and applications for presenting, processing and managing information.
Although we have a strong emphasis on web-based applications, our work covers all areas of computer science, including software development, support, and training. Our experience from many years of interdisciplinary and scientific work is the best foundation for our services.
Systemantics was founded in 2007 by Lutz Issler. He holds the degree of Diplom-Informatiker (master of science in computer science) from the RWTH Aachen University in Germany. He worked as a freelance consultant and developer since 1999, and as a research assistant at the Institute for Medical Informatics at the University of Leipzig from 2005–2007. There, he conducted research in the field of modelling of information processing. Lutz is a member of the ACM.
Since all times, man wanted to communicate his (and her) knowledge not only by the spoken word, but also by persistent symbolic representations. The invention of script and number systems marked the first steps to a systematic processing of information. Strictly spoken, this was the birth hour of informatics: Informatics is the science of the systematic processing of information.
With modern computer systems, it is possible to collect and process larger amounts of information than ever. The computer is merely a tool for this than the central aspect. Edsger Dijkstra (1930–2002), a famous computer scientist, stated that ›computer science is no more about computers than astronomy is about telescopes.‹
The chances that arise from the breathtaking development of computer technology for economy, science, and culture are enormous. At the same time, there is the need to develop structured methods to deal with the further increasing complexity of processing and accessing large amounts of information. Informatics is all of this: developing new methods for systematic information processing and keeping the complexity handy. With this approach, informatics contributes positively to all areas of modern life.
A ›Bureau for Informatics‹ like Systemantics, thus, is providing the client support and advice in all areas of informatics. Like an office of consultant engineers or an architect's office, we offer our expertise whereever the client needs it. We view this as assistance for our clients in seizing new chances.
