Das Ziel dieser Arbeit war die Umsetzung eines Wahrnehmungsensors für Softwareagenten, die über ein virtuelles Menschmodell in einer dreidimensionalen Umgebung agieren. Hierbei sollen die Agenten über den Sensor in der Lage sein, semantische Informationen zu geometrischen Objekten in der Umgebung zu erhalten. Hierfür wurden zwei Verfahren umgesetzt, die das menschliche Sehen simulieren, indem Objekte erkannt werden, wenn diese innerhalb eines Sichtfelds liegen. Ein Problem, das dabei gelöst werden muss, ist die Identifizierung möglicher Verdeckungen der Objekte. Ein Ansatz, dieses Problem zu lösen, ist der Ray-Tracing Ansatz, welcher für das erste Verfahren umgesetzt wurde. Das zweite Verfahren verwendet den Occlusion-Culling Ansatz. Auswertungen beider Verfahren haben gezeigt, dass der Ray-Tracing Ansatz eine schnellere Laufzeit aufweist, der Occlusion-Culling Ansatz jedoch mehr unverdeckte Objekte im Sichtfeld erkennt.
Enterprise Architectures (EA) consists of many architecture elements, which stand in manifold relationships to each other. Therefore Architecture Analysis is important and very difficult for stakeholders. Due changing an architecture element has impacts on other elements different stakeholders are involved. In practice EAs are often analyzed using visualizations. This article aims at contributing to the field of visual analytics in EAM by analyzing how state of-the-art software platforms in EAM support stakeholders with respect to providing and visualizing the “right” information for decision-making tasks. We investigate the collaborative decision-making process in an experiment with master students using professional EAM tools by developing a research study and accomplishing them in a master’s level class with students.
Current approaches for enterprise architecture lack analytical instruments for cyclic evaluations of business and system architectures in real business enterprise system environments. This impedes the broad use of enterprise architecture methodologies. Furthermore, the permanent evolution of systems desynchronizes quickly model representation and reality. Therefore we are introducing an approach for complementing the existing top-down approach for the creation of enterprise architecture with a bottom approach. Enterprise Architecture Analytics uses the architectural information contained in many infrastructures to provide architectural information. By applying Big Data technologies it is possible to exploit this information and to create architectural information. That means, Enterprise Architectures may be discovered, analyzed and optimized using analytics. The increased availability of architectural data also improves the possibilities to verify the compliance of Enterprise Architectures. Architectural decisions are linked to clustered architecture artifacts and categories according to a holistic EAM Reference Architecture with specific architecture metamodels. A special suited EAM Maturity Framework provides the base for systematic and analytics supported assessments of architecture capabilities.
Strategy to test mobile apps
(2014)
Nowadays the development of a mobile app implies challenges and difficulties, which have to be faced by mobile app developers. Innovations lead to a rapidly evolving mobile app market, therefore apps should be developed faster and offered in short release cycles to the market. Testing is a decisive activity within the development process that helps to improve the quality of the app. This research paper describes a strategy to test mobile apps that overcomes the challenges that mobile apps confront and permits to test the app in a structural test environment.
The implementation of a web based portal QA solution will lead to a high acceptance of the staff as the usage of commonly known standard software (e.g. web browser) allows intuitive handling. In the daily use a significant simplification of the workflow and Performance enhancement can be achieved by easy access to the check documents. As the data is now saved in a database it can easily be processed and long-term trends can be displayed. Therefore possible errors can be detected much easier and earlier. By the usage of time stamps and user authentication procedures and user responsibilities are comprehensibly documented. As the software is browser based, integration into an existing software Environment is not critical. As only technical QA data is processed, no further data security measures are necessary. A certification as a medical product is not required.
Im präventiven Krisenmanagement geht es um die frühzeitige Erkennung von möglichen, unvorhersehbaren Ereignissen. Hierzu zählen beispielhaft Busunfälle, einstürzende Gebäude und ähnliche Großschadensereignisse. Krisen treten meist unerwartet auf und neigen oftmals aufgrund der knapp bemessenen Handlungszeit zu Fehlentscheidungen. Um dies zu verhindern, dient das präventive Krisenmanagement dazu, sämtliche auftretende Ereignisse mittels einer Simulation zuvor durchzuspielen, um im Falle einer reellen Krise die notwendigen Schritte bestmöglich einzuleiten. Um Simulationen für das Krisenmanagement zu präzisieren und die Ergebnisse effektiv und vereinfacht zu veranschaulichen, ist es notwendig, eine Vorauswahl an vorhandenen Szenarien für Vergleiche heraussuchen zu können. Diese Arbeit entstand im Rahmen des FP-7 EU Projekts CRISMA (Crisis Management) [1] und dient zur Evaluation eines Konzepts zur Vorauswahl geeigneter Szenarien, welche in früheren Simulationen entstanden.
Proceedings of the International Workshop on Mobile Networks for Biometric Data Analysis (mBiDA)
(2014)
Prevention and treatment of common and widesprea (chronic) diseases is a challenge in any modern Society and vitally important for health maintenance in aging societies. Capturing biometric data is a cornerstone for any analysis and Treatment strategy. Latest advances in sensor technology allow accurate data measurement in a non-intrusive way. In many cases, it is necessary to provide online monitoring and real-time data capturing to support patients´ prevention plans or to allow medical professionals to access the current status. Different communication standards are required to push sensor data and to store and analyze them on different (mobile) platforms. The objective of the workshop is to show new and innovative approaches dedicated to biometric data capture and analysis in a non-intrusive way maintaining mobility. Examples can be found in human centered ambient intelligence attributed with sensors or even in methodologies applied in automotive real-time conform mobile system design. The workshop´s main challenge is to focus on approaches promoting non-intrusiveness, reliable prediction algorithms and high user-acceptance. The workshop will provide overview presentations, Young researcher poster tracks, doctoral tracks and classical peer-review full paper tracks. Especially, would like to encourage students and young researchers to participate and to contribute to the workshop. Scientific contributions to the event are peer-reviewed by a suited program committee.
Mit dem starken Wachstum des CarSharing- Angebots und der großen Menge an Flottenfahrzeugen in Unternehmen nimmt auch die Anzahl der Fahrtenbuch-Apps zu. Bei den meisten mobilen Fahrtenbuch- Anwendungen muss der Benutzer den Kilometerstand manuell eintragen. Dies wirkt sich negativ auf die Usability und die User Experience aus. Hinzu kommt, dass jede Minute kostbar ist, die der Fahrer im ausgeliehenen Auto verbringt. Aus diesen Gründen wird hier eine Lösung vorgestellt, bei der der Kilometerstand aus einer Mercedes Benz A-Klasse über den OBD-Anschluss mit Hilfe des CAN Interfaces „ISI b2air“ automatisch ausgelesen und per Bluetooth an die Fahrtenbuch-App der Berger Elektronik GmbH gesendet wird. Hierfür wird mittels der Software „ISI b2app“ die Kommunikation des Diagnosetesters mit dem Fahrzeug aufgezeichnet. Anschließend werden die CAN-Botschaften analysiert und in Bezug auf den Kilometerstand gefiltert. Die entsprechende Anfrage zum Erhalt des Kilometerstandes wird in den Programmcode des Berger Fahrtenbuches implementiert, so dass die App selbstständig den Kilometerstand auslesen kann.
An index in a Multi-Version DBMS (MV-DBMS) has to reflect different tuple versions of a single data item. Existing approaches follow the paradigm of logically separating the tuple version data from the data item, e.g. an index is only allowed to return at most one version of a single data item (while it may return multiple data items that match a search criteria). Hence to determine the valid (and therefore visible) tuple version of a data item, the MV-DBMS first fetches all tuple versions that match the search criteria and subsequently filters visible versions using visibility checks. This involves I/O storage accesses to tuple versions that do not have to be fetched. In this vision paper we present the Multi Version Index (MV-IDX) approach that allows index-only visibility checks which significantly reduce the amount of I/O storage accesses as well as the index maintenance overhead. The MV-IDX achieves significantly lower response times and higher transactional throughput on OLTP workloads.
