While the use of the search feature of the DRESDEN Technology Portal (DTP) is freely available to everyone, the offerings of:
- scientific equipment
- Services (studies, calculations, analyses, evaluations...etc.) and
- research competencies (research foci, own developed technologies and methods,...etc.)
are reserved exclusively for members of DRESDEN-concept (DDc)! You can check here if your institution is already one of our partners.
Why offer research infrastructure in the DTP?
The goal of the technology portal is to display the existing research infrastructures of the TUD Dresden University of Technology to researchers at the TUD, but also to members of the DRESDEN-concept network. If desired, it is also possible to display them for interested external industrial partners (e.g. SMEs) - and thus to facilitate access to these resources.
The advantages of the technology portal at a glance
- Easy access to modern, cost-intensive cutting-edge technology for users of DDc partner facilities and external interested parties
- Direct contacting of equipment/service managers with the help of the listed profiles
- Improved ranking on search engines such as Google through search engine optimization (SEO)
- More cost-efficient operation of own infrastructure through better device utilization and centralized services (core units)
- Improved research quality and time savings through the provision of highly specialized services
- Cost savings through coordinated equipment procurement
In addition, mutual interactions can lead to partnerships which might evolve into new interdisciplinary collaborations and / or new R&D projects.
Functionalities
The DRESDEN technology portal convinces by its search function, which allows for a fast and easy "find and be found". Data maintenance is done centrally, but with its universal interface it offers possibilities for import and export. The connection to already existing databases is also possible, the data can be synchronized automatically. The integration of the data within the web pages of the WebCMS of the TU Dresden is simple and uncomplicated via the technology portal box.
Registration
How can I make entries in the DTP regarding the research infrastructure of my institution?
In order to make entries in the DTP, you need write permissions and have to authenticate yourself as an employee of the TUD or one of the other DDc partner institutions. Authentication is usually simple and straightforward (without a new user name and password) via single sign-on using the login server of your home institute. For employees of the TUD this is the IDM login server of the ZIH. In order to authenticate yourself in the DTP and to be able to start with entries, you will get to the login here.
