Der Anspruch an Energieversorger wird wachsen: in Zukunft gewinnen vor allem Aufgaben wie die Entwicklung digitalisierter Produkte/Dienstleistungen sowie ökologische Aktivitäten an Relevanz. Dies zeigt die Hochschule Reutlingen in ihrer aktuellen Untersuchung unter Aufsichtsräten, Geschäftsführern und Führungskräften. Trotz der erwarteten Veränderungen: die Aufsichtsräte sind sich zwar ihrem Druck zu mehr Professionalisierung bewusst, scheinen aktuell aber nur mäßig für die künftigen Herausforderungen des Unternehmens gerüstet. Besonders relevant dabei: die Professionalisierung der Gremienarbeit in kommunalen EVU ermöglicht einen höheren wahrgenommenen Unternehmenserfolg. So die Studie des Reutlinger Energiezentrums and der Hochschule Reutlingen im Auftrag von fünf Unternehmen der Branche.
Stetiger Wandel macht auch vor dem Vertriebsprozess deutscher KMU nicht Halt. Evolutive Umwelteinflüsse sowie revolutionäres Handeln stehen im Zentrum eines Umbruchs im Vertrieb. Ergebnisse aus einem quantitativen Stimmungsbarometer deutscher KMU ermöglichen das Ableiten unternehmerischer Handlungsempfehlungen für Vertriebsorganisationen.
Today 40 Gbps is in development at IEEE 802.3bq over four pair balanced cabling. In this paper, we describe a transmission experiment of 25 Gbps enabling either a single pair transmission of 25 Gbps over a 30 meter balanced cabling channel, or a 100 Gbps transmission via a four-pair balanced channel. A scalable matrix modeling tool is introduced which allows the prediction of transmission characteristics of a channel taking mode conversion into account . We applied this tool to characterize PCB-channels including the magnetics and PCB for a four-pair 100 Gbps transmission. We evaluated prototype cables and connecting hardware for frequencies up to 2 GHz and beyond. Finally we investigated possible line encoding schemes and provide measurement results of a transmission over 30 m with a data rate of 25 Gbps per twisted pair.
Modern power transistors are able to switch at very high transition speed, which can cause EMC violations and overshoot. This is addressed by a gate driver with variable gate current, which is able to control the transition speed. The key idea is that the gate driver can influence the di/dt and dv/dt transition separately and optimize whichever transition promises the highest improvement while keeping switching losses low. To account for changes in the load current, supply voltage, etc., a control loop is required in the driver to ensure optimized switching. In this paper, an efficient control scheme for an automotive gate driver with variable output current capability is presented. The effectiveness of the control loop is demonstrated for a MOSFET bridge consisting of OptiMOS-T2™devices with a total gate charge of 39nC. This bridge setup shows dv/dt transitions between 50 to 1000ns, depending on driving current. The driver is able to switch between gate current levels of 1 to 500mA in 10/15ns (rising/falling transition). With the implemented control loop the driver is measured to significantly reduce the ringing and thereby reduce device stress and electromagnetic emissions while keeping switching losses 52% lower than with a constant current driver.
The 21st century: an era where emojis and hashtags find their way into every sentence, where taking selfies, live tweeting and mining bitcoin are the norm, and where Insta-culture dictates what we say and do. This is the era into which the digital native was born. With so many changes in every aspect of our lives, how is it that one of the most influential aspects, our education, has remained unchanged? Our education system not only fails to appeal to today’s students, but more importantly, it fails to equip them with the skills required in the 21st Century. It is thus of no surprise that industries feel graduates entering the workplace lack skills in critical thinking, problem solving and self-directed learning. AI, machine learning and big data: Tools and mechanisms we so eagerly incorporate to create smart factories yet are hesitant to use elsewhere. Gamification and games have shown great results in education and training; with most research suggesting a stronger focus on personalization and adaptation. When combined with analytics and machine learning, the potential of games is yet to be realized. A real-time adaptive game would not only always present an appropriate degree of challenge for the individual but would allow for a shift in focus from the recitation of facts, to the application of information filtered to solve the particular problem at hand. South Africa, a country faced with a severe skills gap, could benefit greatly from games. If used correctly, they may just offer a desperately needed contribution toward equipping both current and future employees with the skills needed to survive in the 21st century. This paper explores the feasibility of using such games for enhanced knowledge dissemination and the upskilling of the workforce.
Autonomous navigation is one of the main areas of research in mobile robots and intelligent connected vehicles. In this context, we are interested in presenting a general view on robotics, the progress of research, and advanced methods related to this field to improve autonomous robots’ localization. We seek to evaluate algorithms and techniques that give robots the ability to move safely and autonomously in a complex and dynamic environment. Under these constraints, we focused our work in the paper on a specific problem: to evaluate a simple, fast and light SLAM algorithm that can minimize localization errors. We presented and validated a FastSLAM 2.0 system combining scan matching and loop closure detection. To allow the robot to perceive the environment and detect objects, we have studied one of the best deep learning technique using convolutional neural networks (CNN). We validate our testing using the YOLOv3 algorithm.
Software and system development is complex and diverse, and a multitude of development approaches is used and combined with each other to address the manifold challenges companies face today. To study the current state of the practice and to build a sound understanding about the utility of different development approaches and their application to modern software system development, in 2016, we launched the HELENA initiative. This paper introduces the 2nd HELENA workshop and provides an overview of the current project state. In the workshop, six teams present initial findings from their regions, impulse talk are given, and further steps of the HELENA roadmap are discussed.
