Presently, many companies are transforming their strategy and product base, as well as their culture, processes and information systems to become more digital or to approach for a digital leadership. In the last years new business opportunities appeared using the potential of the Internet and related digital technologies, like Internet of Things, services computing, cloud computing, edge and fog computing, social networks, big data with analytics, mobile systems, collaboration networks, and cyber physical systems. Digitization fosters the development of IT environments with many rather small and distributed structures, like the Internet of Things, Microservices, or other micro-granular elements. This has a strong impact for architecting digital services and products. The change from a closed-world modeling perspective to more flexible open-world composition and evolution of micro-granular system architectures defines the moving context for adaptable systems. We are focusing on a continuous bottom-up integration of micro-granular architectures for a huge amount of dynamically growing systems and services, as part of a new digital enterprise architecture for service dominant digital products.
Enterprises are transforming their strategy, culture, processes, and their information systems to enlarge their digitalization efforts or to approach for digital leadership. The digital transformation profoundly disrupts existing enterprises and economies. In current times, a lot of new business opportunities appeared using the potential of the Internet and related digital technologies: The Internet of Things, services computing, cloud computing, artificial intelligence, big data with analytics, mobile systems, collaboration networks, and cyber physical systems. Digitization fosters the development of IT environments with many rather small and distributed structures, like the Internet of Things, microservices, or other micro-granular elements. Architecting micro-granular structures have a substantial impact on architecting digital services and products. The change from a closed-world modeling perspective to more flexible Open World of living software and system architectures defines the context for flexible and evolutionary software approaches, which are essential to enable the digital transformation. In this paper, we are revealing multiple perspectives of digital enterprise architecture and decisions to effectively support value and service oriented software systems for intelligent digital services and products.
Digitalization of products and services commonly causes substantial changes in business models, operations, organization structures and IT infrastructures of enterprises. Motivated by experiences and observations from digitalization projects, the paper investigates the effects of digitalization on enterprise architectures (EA). EA models serve as representation of business, information system and technical aspects of an enterprise to support management and development. By comparing EA models before and after digitalization, the paper analyzes the kinds of changes visible in the EA model. The most important finding is that newly created digitized products and the associated (product)- and enterprise architecture are no longer properly integrated into the overall architecture and even exist in parallel. Thus, the focus of this work is on showing these parallel architectures and proposing derivations for a better integration.
Mammographie-Geräte werden in der Diagnostik von Mammakarzinomen eingesetzt. Die ursprüngliche Technik wurde in den letzten Jahren von analogen Röntgenfilmen zu digital integrierten Systemen weiterentwickelt. Durch die Tomosynthese, bei der in einem Schnittbildverfahren mehrere Schichten des Organismus untersucht werden können, können auch überlagerte Strukturen sichtbar gemacht werden. Um als adäquate Grundlage zur Diagnostik von malignen Tumoren dienen zu können, müssen einige qualitative Anforderungen erfüllt werden. Bisher gibt es wenig Literatur, die Anforderungen und den Aufbau solcher Geräte systematisch beschreiben. Im Rahmen dieser Arbeit werden auf Basis der Literatur und bestehender Systeme die qualitativen Anforderungen identifiziert. Der prinzipielle Aufbau solcher Systeme wird anhand der einzelnen Systembausteine in der semiformalen Notationssprache SysML gezeigt. Die grundlegende Funktionsweise eines tomosynthesefähigen Mammographie Gerätes wird in dieser Arbeit zusammenfassend und anhand der einzelnen Systembausteine beschrieben. Diese Arbeit dient der Vermittlung eines umfassenden Verständnisses für die digitale Mammographie, um als Grundlage für die Dokumentation von qualitativen Anforderungen dienen zu können.
Zur Unterstützung des Operateurs wird eine patientennahe Informationsanzeige entwickelt, die kontextrelevante Informationen entsprechend der aktuellen Situation bereitstellen kann. Hierfür soll eine Situationserkennung konzipiert werden, die auf unterschiedliche intraoperative Prozesse übertragen werden kann. Ziel der adaptiven Situationserkennung ist das Erkennen spezifischer Situationen durch intraoperative Informationen unterschiedlicher Datenquellen im Operationssaal. Innerhalb der Datenerhebung und -analyse wurden Anwendungsfälle für die Situationserkennung definiert sowie chirurgische Prozessmodelle erstellt, die intraoperative Ereignisse abbilden. Auf Basis dieser Informationen wurde ein Konzept entworfen, das sich zunächst auf die Erkennung abstrakter generalisierter Phasen, unabhängig vom Eingriff, fokussiert und sich Schritt für Schritt auf granulare Prozessschritte spezifizieren lässt. Diese Flexibilität soll die Übertragbarkeit des Konzepts auf intraoperative Prozesse ermöglichen und den Operateur dadurch gezielt mit kontextrelevanten Informationen unterstützen. Das Konzept wird in zukünftigen Schritten weiterentwickelt.
In der Orthopädie werden Robotersysteme bereits seit mehreren Jahren erfolgreich unterstützend eingesetzt. Dieser Ansatz erfordert die vorgelagerte Erstellung eines digitalen Modells auf Basis von medizinischen Bilddatensätzen. Die Erstellung und Überprüfung der Modelle soll in einer browserbasierten Client- Server-Anwendung erfolgen. Hierfür ist die Darstellung von zweidimensionalen und dreidimensionalen Datensätzen erforderlich. Basis dieses Papers ist die Entwicklung eines Ansatzes zur interaktiven, browserbasierten dreidimensionalen Darstellung medizinischer Planungsdaten. Die Anwendung stellt ein Proof of Concept dar, ob die bestehenden Desktopanwendungen zur Darstellung von Planungsdaten ersetzt werden können. Mit Hilfe des Frameworks AMI.js wurde die Anwendung umgesetzt. Sie erfüllt alle definierten Anforderungen und kann somit die aktuellen Desktopanwendungen ersetzen.
This study is about estimating the reproducibility of finding palpation points of three different anatomical landmarks in the human body (Xiphoid Process and the 2 Hip Crests) to support a navigated ultrasound application. On 6 test subjects with different body mass index the three palpation points were located five times by two examiners. The deviation from the target position was calculated and correlated to the fat thickness above each palpation point. The reproducibility of the measurements had a mean error of ≈13.5 mm +- 4 mm, which seems to be sufficient for the desired application field.
Fatigue and drowsiness are responsible for a significant percentage of road traffic accidents. There are several approaches to monitor the driver's drowsiness, ranging from the driver's steering behavior to the analysis of the driver, e.g. eye tracking, blinking, yawning, or electrocardiogram (ECG). This paper describes the development of a low-cost ECG sensor to derive heart rate variability (HRV) data for drowsiness detection. The work includes hardware and software design. The hardware was implemented on a printed circuit board (PCB) designed so that the board can be used as an extension shield for an Arduino. The PCB contains a double, inverted ECG channel including low-pass filtering and provides two analog outputs to the Arduino, which combines them and performs the analog-to-digital conversion. The digital ECG signal is transferred to an NVidia embedded PC where the processing takes place, including QRS-complex, heart rate, and HRV detection as well as visualization features. The resulting compact sensor provides good results in the extraction of the main ECG parameters. The sensor is being used in a larger frame, where facial-recognition-based drowsiness detection is combined with ECG-based detection to improve the recognition rate under unfavorable light or occlusion conditions.
The goal of this paper pretends to show how a bed system with an embedded system with sensor is able to analyze a person’s movement, breathing and recognizing the positions that the subject is lying on the bed during the night without any additional physical contact. The measurements are performed with sensors placed between the mattress and the frame. An Intel Edison board was used as an endpoint that served as a communication node from the mesh network to external service. Two nodes and Intel Edison are attached to the bottom of the bed frame and they are connected to the sensors.
This document presents an algorithm for a nonobtrusive recognition of Sleep/Wake states using signals derived from ECG, respiration, and body movement captured while lying in a bed. As a core mathematical base of system data analytics, multinomial logistic regression techniques were chosen. Derived parameters of the three signals are used as the input for the proposed method. The overall achieved accuracy rate is 84% for Wake/Sleep stages, with Cohen’s kappa value 0.46. The presented algorithm should support experts in analyzing sleep quality in more detail. The results confirm the potential of this method and disclose several ways for its improvement.
