TSN, or Time Sensitive Networking, is becoming an essential technology for integrated networks, enabling deterministic and best effort traffic to coexist on the same infrastructure. In order to properly configure, run and secure such TSN, monitoring functionality is a must. The TSN standard already has some preparations to provide such functionality and there are different methods to choose from. We implemented different methods to measure the time synchronisation accuracy between devices as a C library and compared the measurement results. Furthermore, the library has been integrated into the ControlTSN engineering framework.
In an experience economy market competition in software branches is becoming more and more intense. Technical innovations, global retail practices and the multidimensional conception of experiences provide both opportunities and challenges for companies worldwide. Retailers strive for an optimized conversion rate, but poor UX still abound. Particularly Germany-based companies are less evolved in an international comparison of industrialized economies. The value of integrating users in the development process is recognized, but methodologies must carefully be incorporated into existing agile workflows. The goal of this study is to bridge the gaps between internal agency and external client and user interests. The contribution is four-fold: an overview of the current status of customer centricity in the E-Commerce branch of trade is provided (I). Based on this corpus, a methodical framework, aiming to incorporate the experience logic in UX practices within an agile project team, is presented (II). The framework is applied by a single case study - the shop relaunch of a motorbike accessory store (III). Finally, all interest groups (UX, development and project management) are incorporated in the qualitative content analysis (IV).

The method includes classification of abstraction level of the elementary principles, definition of the statistical ranking of principles for different problem types, and specific engineering or non-technical domains, definition of strategies for selection of principles sets with high solution potential for predefined problems, automated semantic transformation of the elementary inventive principles into solution ideas, evaluation of automatically generated ideas and transformation of ideas to innovation or inventive concepts.
Energy and environment continue to be major issues of human mankind. This holds true on the regional, the national, and the global level. And it is one of the problems, where engineers and scientists in conjunction with political will and people's awareness, can find new approaches and solutions to save the natural resources and to make their use more efficient.

Die direkte Vermarktung von Strom aus Wind und Sonne stellt einen wichtigen Schritt der Energiewende dar. Einerseits kann durch die Marktintegration die Unabhängigkeit von EEG-Subventionen gelingen. Andererseits wird über diese Mechanismen die Stromerzeugung an der Nachfrage orientiert, wodurch zur Stabilität des Stromnetzes beigetragen wird. Ein Beispiel dafür ist die lokale Vermarktung von PV-Strom in einem Mietshaus. Für deren Umsetzung benötigen die Akteure ein Mess- und Steuerungssystem, dass vor Ort Zähler- und Anlagendaten erfasst und die Abrechnung der Mieter vereinfacht. Außerdem sollte es Kennwerte wie beispielsweise den PV-Anteil berechnen und gegebenenfalls ein Blockheizkraftwerk steuern. Weder die Zählersysteme der Messstellenbetreiber noch die Steuerungssysteme von PV- oder Blockheizkraftwerken erfüllen diese Anforderungen ausreichend. In der Forschung ist man währenddessen bereits einen Schritt weiter und arbeitet an technischen Systemen, die für wesentlich komplexere Energiesystem- und Markttopologien ausgelegt werden. In dieser Arbeit werden die neuen technischen Anforderungen der Direktvermarktung in einem Mietshaus identifiziert und mit dem Stand aktueller Marktprodukte sowie dem System »OpenMUC« aus der Forschung verglichen.
The paper describes the methodology and experimental results for revealing similarities in thermal dependencies of biases of accelerometers and gyroscopes from 250 inertial MEMS chips (MPU-9250). Temperature profiles were measured on an experimental setup with a Peltier element for temperature control. Classification of temperature curves was carried out with machine learning approach.
A perfect sensor should not have thermal dependency at all. Thus, only sensors inside the clusters with smaller dependency (smaller total temperature slopes) might be pre-selected for production of high accuracy inertial navigation modules. It was found that no unified thermal profile (“family” curve) exists for all sensors in a production batch. However, obviously, sensors might be grouped according to their parameters. Therefore, the temperature compensation profiles might be regressed for each group. 12 slope coefficients on 5 degrees temperature intervals from 0°C to +60°C were used as the features for the k-means++ clustering algorithm.
The minimum number of clusters for all sensors to be well separated from each other by bias thermal profiles in our case is 6. It was found by applying the elbow method. For each cluster a regression curve can be obtained.
The paper is addressing the needs of the universities regarding qualification of students as future R&D specialists in efficient techniques for successfully running innovation process. It briefly describes the program of a novel one-semester-course of 150 hours in new product development and inventive problem solving with TRIZ methodology, offered for the master students at the Beuth University of Applied Sciences in Berlin. The paper outlines multi-source educational approach, which includes a new product development project (about 50% of the complete course), theory, practical work, self-learning with the software tools for computer-aided innovation, and demonstrates examples of the students work. The research part analyses the learning experience, identifies the factors that impact the innovation and problem solving performance of the students, and underlines the main difficulties faced by the students in the course. It describes a method for measurement of education efficiency and compares the results with educational experience in the industry. The presented results can help universities to establish the education in new product development or to improve its performance.
Machine-to-machine communication is continuously extending to new application fields. Especially smart metering has the potential to become the first really large-scale M2M application. Although in the future distributed meter devices will be mainly connected via dedicated primary communication protocols, like ZigBee, Wireless
M-Bus or alike, a major percentage of all meters will be connected via point to point communication using GPRS or UMTS platforms. Thus, such meter devices have to be extremely cost and energy efficient, especially if the devices are battery based and powered several years by a single battery. This paper presents the development of an automated measurement unit for power and time, thus energy characteristics can be recorded. The measurement unit includes a hardware platform for the device
under test (DUT) and a database based software environment for a smooth execution and analysis of the measurements.
The low cost and small size of MEMS inertial sensors allows their combination into a multi sensor module in order to improve performance. However the different linear accelerations measured on different places on a rotating rigid body have to be considered for the proper fusion of the measurements. The errors in measurement of MEMS inertial sensors include deterministic imperfection, but also random noise. The gain in accuracy of using multiple sensors depends strongly on the correlation between these errors from the different sensors. Although for sensor fusion it usually assumed that the measurement errors of different sensors are uncorrelated, estimation theory shows that for the combination of the same type of sensors actually a negative correlation will be more beneficial. Therefore we describe some important and often neglected considerations for the combination of several sensors and also present some preliminary results with regard to the correlation of measurements from a simple multi sensor setup.
The Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol is a cornerstone of secure network communication, not only for online banking, e-commerce, and social media, but also for industrial communication and cyber-physical systems. Unfortunately, implementing TLS correctly is very challenging, as becomes evident by considering the high frequency of bugfixes filed for many TLS implementations. Given the high significance of TLS, advancing the quality of implementations is a sustained pursuit. We strive to support these efforts by presenting a novel, response-distribution guided fuzzing algorithm for differential testing of black-box TLS implementations. Our algorithm generates highly diverse and mostly-valid TLS stimulation messages, which evoke more behavioral discrepancies in TLS server implementations than other algorithms. We evaluate our algorithm using 37 different TLS implementations and discuss―by means of a case study―how the resulting data allows to assess and improve not only implementations of TLS but also to identify underspecified corner cases. We introduce suspiciousness as a per-implementation metric of anomalous implementation behavior and find that more recent or bug-fixed implementations tend to have a lower suspiciousness score. Our contribution is complementary to existing tools and approaches in the area, and can help reveal implementation flaws and avoid regression. While being presented for TLS, we expect our algorithm's guidance scheme to be applicable and useful also in other contexts. Source code and data is made available for fellow researchers in order to stimulate discussions and invite others to benefit from and advance our work.
Mathematik lässt sich in vielen Objekten finden. Sei es die lineare Steigung eines Handlaufs zum Schulgebäude oder die nahezu zylindrische Form einer Litfaßsäule in der Innenstadt. Das Bestreben, Schüler*innen diese Zusammenhänge entdecken zu lassen, steht im Zentrum des MathCityMap Projekts (Ludwig et al., 2013). Auf sogenannten mathematischen Wanderpfaden (bzw. Mathtrails) werden Schüler*innen durch eine App zu Mathematikaufgaben an realen Objekten bzw. in realen Situationen ihrer Umwelt geleitet. Um die Aufgaben zu lösen, werden Daten erhoben, z. B. durch Messungen oder Zählen. Entscheidend ist, dass die Aufgaben so gestellt sind, dass der Schritt der Datenbeschaffung nur vor Ort stattfinden kann und somit direkt mit dem Objekt bzw. der Situation verknüpft wird.
In the railway technical centers, scheduling the maintenance activities is a very complex task, it consists in ordering, in the time, all the maintenance operations on the workstations, while respecting the number of resources, precedence constraints, and the workstations' availabilities. Currently, this process is not completely automatic. For improving this situation, this paper presents a mathematical model for the maintenance activities scheduling in the case of railway remanufacturing systems. The studied problem is modeled as a flexible job-shop, with the possibility for a job to be executed several times on a stage. MILP formulation is implemented with the Makespan as an objective, representing the time for remanufacturing the train. The aim is to create a generic model for optimizing the planning of the maintenance activities and improving the performance of the railway technical centers. At last, numerical results are presented, discussing the impact of the instances size on the computing time to solve the described problem.
Der Übergang Schule-Studium wird an der Hochschule Offenburg im Vorbereitungskurs Mathematik per Smartphone bzw. Tablet unterstützt. Eine Mathe-App gibt zu den Trainingsaufgaben bei Bedarf Tipps, Teilschritte und ausführliche Erklärungen und hilft so den Studierenden, die Lösungen in ihrer individuellen Lerngeschwindigkeit zu entwickeln. Der mobile Ansatz erlaubt, die ca. 400 Teilnehmer des Präsenz-Kurses in normalen Klassenräumen ohne PC-Ausstattung mit E-Learning vertraut zu machen und unterstützt die Flexibilisierung von Übungszeit und -ort über die Präsenzzeit hinaus. Durch die inhaltliche Orientierung am hochschulübergreifenden COSH (Cooperation Schule Hochschule) Mindestanforderungskatalog Mathematik entstand eine Lösung, die jedem Studienanfänger zur Vorbereitung auf das Studium nutzen kann, die zu den Brückenkurs-Inhalten vieler Hochschulen passt und für die aktuell schon Kooperationsprojekte mit Schulen starten.
This paper describes a taxonomy which allows to assess and compare different implementations of master data objects. A systematic breakdown of core entities provides a framework to tell apart four subdividing categories of master data objects: independent and dependent objects, relational objects, and reference objects that serve to attribute information. This supports the preparation of data migrations from one system to another.
