After the successful International Year of Light 2015, the idea of sustainability became increasingly imminent. After a preparatory year on 16 May 2018, the International Day of Light was launched for the first time. This event was celebrated with a public celebration in Paris at the UNESCO headquarters. In this paper we will present our projects dedicated to the International Day of Light in Paris. Together with a group of students from our university, we had the special opportunity to be integrated in the program of the opening ceremony at UNESCO in Paris. With our interdisciplinary projects we have tried to build a bridge between optics, photonics, art and media installations.
The United Nations have declared 2015 as the International Year of Light (IYL2015) and light-based technologies [1]. As a main result, the public interest is focused on both the achievements and the new frontiers of optics and photonics. This opens up new perspectives in the teaching and training of optics and photonics. In the first part of the paper, the author presents the numerous anniversaries occurring in the International Year of Light 2015 together with their importance to the development of science and technology. In the second part, we report on an interactive video projection at the opening ceremony of the IYL2015 in Paris on January 19-20, 2015. Students of Offenburg University have established an interactive video projection which visualizes Twitter and Facebook messages posted with the hashtag #iyl2015 in a mapping technique. Thus, the worldwide community can be interactively part of the opening ceremony. Finally, upcoming global community projects related to optics and astronomy events are presented.
Internationale Projektarbeit
(2019)
Mit der Initiative „Werbung für den Innovationsstandort Deutschland“ des Bundesministeriums für Bildung und Forschung (BMBF) wird seit November 2006 der Forschungsstandort Deutschland unter der Marke „Research in Germany – Land of Ideas“ international vermarktet. Im Programm unter dem Thema „Technologieumfeld Umwelttechnologien“ hat sich die Forschungsgruppe „Zentrum für angewandte Forschung an Fachhochschulen – Nachhaltige Energietechnik“ (zafh.net) mit einem Antrag über nachhaltiges Gebäudemanagement beworben. Vorrangig sollen die Ergebnisse des zafh.net, das vor allem auf dem Gebiet „Energieeffizienz in Gebäuden und Kommunen“ arbeitet, international vermarktet sowie der Bekanntheitsgrad der Hochschulen verbessert und neue internationale Projekte initiiert werden.
Getragen vom großen Erfolg der Veranstaltungen in den USA in 2008, weitete die Forschungsgruppe nachhaltige Energietechnik (net) seine Aktivitäten in den USA, aber auch in Kanada, Brasilien und in Ländern Osteuropas aus. Trotz anhaltender Wirtschaftskrise in 2009 herrscht in den USA, aber auch weltweit eine erfreulich optimistische Grundstimmung, wenn es um die Nutzung alternativer, erneuerbarer Energien und Fragen der effizienten Energieversorgung geht.
Zu Beginn dieser Arbeit wird dem Leser eine Einführung in die Mitarbeiterkommunikation geboten. Es werden kommunikationswissenschaftliche Grundlagen aufgezeigt und anschließend betriebswirtschaftliche Aspekte beleuchtet. Der Leser bekommt Einsicht in die Planung und Durchführung erfolgreicher Mitarbeiterkommunikation und die damit verbundene Erfolgskontrolle. Im empirischen Teil der Abschlussarbeit wird der Bezug zur Praxis hergestellt. Es wird dargestellt wie Beratungshäuser ihre interne Kommunikation verwirklichen und wo diese auf besondere Herausforderungen stoßen. Ziel der Arbeit ist es, dem Leser eine Übersicht über die oft umfangreichen Aufgaben der internen Kommunikation zu bieten und wie die Theorie letztendlich in der Praxis umgesetzt wird. Im ersten Teil dieser Arbeit wird größtenteils die Methode der Literaturanalyse verwendet. Betriebswirtschaftliche Arbeitstexte, sowie Literatur zu den Instrumenten der internen Kommunikation und Werke aus dem Personal- und Organisationsbereich bilden hierfür die Grundlage. Im zweiten Teil werden die Ergebnisse der empirischen Forschung zur internen Kommunikation in Management-Beratungshäusern gezeigt und anschließend Schlussfolgerungen zusammenfassend dargelegt.
Kleine und mittlere Unternehmen müssen sich heute mehr denn je differenzieren. Vor diesem Hintergrund kann etwa durch eine Markenführung nach innen, die Kommunikationspolitik, oft mit geringem finanziellem Aufwand, erleichtert und verbessert werden. Ihre Mitarbeitenden stellen hier ein hohes Potenzial dar, das es auszuschöpfen gilt. Eine aktuelle empirische Analyse zur internen Markenkompetenz in kleinen und mittleren Mediendienstleistungsunternehmen in der Metropolregion Oberrhein hat gezeigt, dass diese allerdings eher gering ist. Indizien hierfür sind beispielsweise, dass Maßnahmen unkoordiniert und intuitiv eingesetzt werden. Es ist wenig Planung oder gar Strategie zu erkennen. Trotz dieses Kompetenzdefizits ist jedoch ein durchgängiges Bewusstsein für die Bedeutung der Markenführung, speziell auch für die interne Markenführung vorhanden.
Interne Revision: Anforderungen an die Wirksamkeit – ein Vergleich von IDW EPS 983 und MaRisk
(2017)
Der Artikel beschreibt die Herausforderungen für die Kommunikation in Ganztagsschulen im Jahr 2020 als es notwendig war bei einer sehr unbeständigen Organisations- und Kommunikationslage von Seiten der Schulverwaltungen einen Unterrichts- und Ganztagsbetrieb zu organisieren und gegenüber den wesentlichen Stakeholdern zu kommunizieren.
Die wesentlichen Prinzipien und die Zukunft des Internet werden vorgestellt. Neben reinem Faktenwissen werden die Einschätzungen des Autors wiedergeben. An der Wertschöpfungskette wird unter Berücksichtigung der technischen Randbedingungen und der neu geschaffenen Möglichkeiten gezeigt, wie gewinnbringende Anwendungen des Internet entworfen werden können. Die Internet-Technik, die Internet-Organisation, die Internet-Protokollfamilie, die Internet-Dienste und das World Wide Web (WWW) werden ausführlich erörtert. Durch die Einbettung der Dienste in Internet-Anwendungen wie Just-in-time-Informationsbeschaffung, Electronic Commerce oder weltweite Unternehmenskommunikation wird der eigentliche Mehrwert zum Benutzer gebracht. Die Internet-Anwendungen werden unter den drei Aspekten Information, Kommunikation und Transaktion betrachtet. Mit der Anbindung existierender Software-Systeme an das WWW werden neue Möglichkeiten für Internet-Anwendungen aufgezeigt.

Background: Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) with biventricular (BV) pacing is an established therapy for heart failure (HF) patients (P) with sinus rhythm, reduced left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction (EF) and electrical ventricular desynchronization. The aim of the study was to evaluate electrical interventricular delay (IVD) and left ventricular delay (LVD) in right ventricular (RV) pacemaker pacing before upgrading to CRT BV pacing.
Methods: HF P (n=11, age 69.0 ± 7.9 years, 1 female, 10 males) with DDD pacemaker (n=10), DDD defibrillator (n=1), RV pacing, New York Heart Association (NYHA) class 3.0 ± 0.2 and 24.5 ± 4.9 % LVEF were measured by surface ECG and transesophageal bipolar LV ECG before upgrading to CRT defibrillator (n=8) and CRT pacemaker (n=3). IVD was measured between onset of QRS in the surface ECG and onset of LV signal in the transesophageal ECG. LVD was measured between onset and offset of LV signal in the transesophageal ECG. CRT atrioventricular (AV) and BV pacing delay were optimized by impedance cardiography.
Results: Interventricular and intraventricular desynchronization in RV pacemaker pacing were 228.2 ± 44.8 ms QRS duration, 86.5 ± 32.8ms IVD, 94.4 ± 23.8ms LVD, 2.6 ± 0.8 QRS-IVD-ratio with correlation between IVD and QRS-IVD-ratio (r=-0.668 P=0.0248) and 2.3 ± 0.7 QRS-LVD-ratio. The LVEF-IVD-ratio was 0.3 ± 0.1 with correlation between IVD and LVEF-IVD-ratio (r=-0.8063 P=0.00272) and with correlation between QRS duration and LVEF-IVD-ratio (r=-0.7251 P=0.01157). Optimal sensing and pacing AV delay were 128.3 ± 24.8 ms AV delay after atrial sensing (n=6) and 173.3 ± 40.4 ms AV delay after atrial pacing (n=3). Optimal BV pacing delay was -4.3 ± 11.3 ms between LV and RV pacing (n=7). During 30.4 ± 29.6 month CRT follow-up, the NYHA class improved from 3.1 ± 0.2 to 2.2 ± 0.3.
Conclusions: Transesophageal electrical IVD and LVD in RV pacemaker pacing may be additional useful ventricular desynchronization parameters to improve P selection for upgrading RV pacemaker pacing to CRT BV pacing.
Im Rahmen der Cochleaimplantat (CI)-Versorgung werden sowohl intraoperativ als auch postoperativ verschiedene elektrische und elektrophysiologische Diagnostikverfahren eingesetzt, bei denen elektrische Messgrößen vom CI erfasst und elektrophysiologische Messungen bei CI-Patienten durchgeführt werden. Zu den elektrophysiologischen Diagnostikverfahren zählen die Messung der elektrisch evozierten Summenaktionspotenziale des Hörnervs, die Registrierung der elektrisch evozierten auditorischen Hirnstammpotenziale und die Erfassung der elektrisch evozierten auditorischen kortikalen Potenziale. Diese Potenziale widerspiegeln die Erregung des Hörnervs und die Reizverarbeitung in verschiedenen Stationen der aufsteigenden Hörbahn bei intracochleärer elektrischer Stimulation mittels eines CI. Bei den aktuellen CI sind die Beurteilung der Elektrodenlage sowie die Prüfung der Ankopplung des Implantats an den Hörnerv wichtige Anwendungsgebiete der elektrophysiologischen Diagnostikverfahren. Ein weiteres bedeutendes Einsatzfeld stellt die Prüfung der Reizverarbeitung in der Hörbahn dar. Das Hauptanwendungsgebiet dieser Verfahren bildet jedoch die Unterstützung der Anpassung der CI-Sprachprozessoren bei Säuglingen und Kleinkindern auf der Basis elektrophysiologischer Schwellen.
Data is ever increasing in the computing world. Due to advancement of cloud technology the dynamics of volumes of data and its capacity has increased within a short period of time and will keep increasing further. Providing transparency, privacy, and security to the cloud users is becoming more and more challenging along with the volume of data and use of cloud services. We propose a new approach to address the above mentioned challenge by recording the user events in the cloud ecosystem into log files and applying MAR principle namely 1) Monitoring 2) Analyzing and 3) Reporting.
Making innovation, trade, investment and environment policy goals mutually supportive creates challenges for internationally‐oriented firms, financial institutions, governments and other stakeholders. Will the Ukraine war derail the green energy transition? How can governments and the financial system work together to broaden, deepen, and accelerate the global transition to net‐zero? What are innovation, trade and investment opportunities for green growth? How to refocus government financing instruments to support countries and trade partners meet their climate targets in times of crisis? The IfTI Global Symposium 2022 hosted by the Institute of Trade and Innovation (IfTI) at Offenburg University discussed challenges to trade in a new global order, as well as opportunities and threats of the green transition. This Special Section brings together practitioner commentaries of key symposium speakers.
The use of renewable energy sources for heating and cooling in buildings today offers the best opportunities to avoid the use of fossil fuels and the associated climate-damaging emissions. However, unlike fossil fuels, renewable energy sources such as solar radiation are not available at the push of a button, but occur uncontrollably depending on weather conditions, the location of the building and the time of year. Their use is free of charge. However, complex converters and systems usually have to be installed in order to use them. These must be carefully planned and operated in order to avoid unnecessary costs and to generate the maximum possible yield. The regenerative energy systems are usually integrated into existing conventional systems. When designing the control and regulation equipment, it is crucial to design the automation of the systems in such a way that primarily renewable energy sources are used and the share of fossil energy sources is minimized.
In this editorial, a topic for general discussion in the field of neuroprosthetics of the upper limb is addressed: which way—invasive or non-invasive—is the right one for the future in the development of neuroprosthetic concepts. At present, two groups of research priorities (namely the invasive versus the non-invasive approach) seem to be emerging, without taking a closer look at the wishes but also the concerns of the patients. This piece is intended to stimulate the discussion on this.

The Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS) protocol has been designed to provide end-to-end security over unreliable communication links. Where its connection establishment is concerned, DTLS copes with potential loss of protocol messages by implementing its own loss detection and retransmission scheme. However, the default scheme turns out to be suboptimal for links with high transmission error rates and low data rates, such as wireless links in electromagnetically harsh industrial environments. Therefore, in this paper, as a first step we provide an analysis of the standard DTLS handshake's performance under such adverse transmission conditions. Our studies are based on simulations that model message loss as the result of bit transmission errors. We consider several handshake variants, including endpoint authentication via pre-shared keys or certificates. As a second step, we propose and evaluate modifications to the way message loss is dealt with during the handshake, making DTLS deployable in situations which are prohibitive for default DTLS.
A fundamental and still largely unsolved question in the context of Generative Adversarial Networks is whether they are truly able to capture the real data distribution and, consequently, to sample from it. In particular, the multidimensional nature of image distributions leads to a complex evaluation of the diversity of GAN distributions. Existing approaches provide only a partial understanding of this issue, leaving the question unanswered. In this work, we introduce a loop-training scheme for the systematic investigation of observable shifts between the distributions of real training data and GAN generated data. Additionally, we introduce several bounded measures for distribution shifts, which are both easy to compute and to interpret. Overall, the combination of these methods allows an explorative investigation of innate limitations of current GAN algorithms. Our experiments on different data-sets and multiple state-of-the-art GAN architectures show large shifts between input and output distributions, showing that existing theoretical guarantees towards the convergence of output distributions appear not to be holding in practice.
Tryptamines can occur naturally in plants, mushrooms, microbes, and amphibians. Synthetic tryptamines are sold as new psychoactive substances (NPS) because of their hallucinogenic effects. When it comes to NPS, metabolism studies are of crucial importance, due to the lack of pharmacological and toxicological data. Different approaches can be taken to study in vitro and in vivo metabolism of xenobiotica. The zygomycete fungus Cunninghamella elegans (C. elegans) can be used as a microbial model for the study of drug metabolism. The current study investigated the biotransformation of four naturally occurring and synthetic tryptamines [N,N‐Dimethyltryptamine (DMT), 4‐hydroxy‐N‐methyl‐N‐ethyltryptamine (4‐HO‐MET), N,N‐di allyl‐5‐methoxy tryptamine (5‐MeO‐DALT) and 5‐methoxy‐N‐methyl‐N‐isoporpoyltryptamine (5‐MeO‐MiPT)] in C. elegans after incubation for 72 hours. Metabolites were identified using liquid chromatography–high resolution–tandem mass spectrometry (LC–HR–MS/MS) with a quadrupole time‐of‐flight (QqTOF) instrument. Results were compared to already published data on these substances. C. elegans was capable of producing all major biotransformation steps: hydroxylation, N‐oxide formation, carboxylation, deamination, and demethylation. On average 63% of phase I metabolites found in the literature could also be detected in C. elegans. Additionally, metabolites specific for C. elegans were identified. Therefore, C. elegans is a suitable complementary model to other in vitro or in vivo methods to study the metabolism of naturally occurring or synthetic tryptamines.
Skin cancer detection proves to be complicated and highly dependent on the examiner’s skills. Millimeter-wave technologies seem to be a promising aid for the detection of skin cancer. The different water content of the skin area affected by cancer compared to healthy skin changes its reflective property. Due to limited available resources on the dielectric properties of skin cancer, especially in comparison to surrounding healthy skin, accurate simulations and evaluations are quite challenging. Therefore, comparing different results for different approaches and starting points can be difficult. In this paper, the Effective Medium Theory is applied to model skin cancer, which provides permittivity values dependent on the water content.
Investigation of the Angle Dependency of Self-Calibration in Multiple-Input-Multiple-Output Radars
(2021)
Multiple-Input-Multiple-Output (MIMO) is a key technology in improving the angular resolution (spatial resolution) of radars. In MIMO radars the amplitude and phase errors in antenna elements lead to increase in the sidelobe level and a misalignment of the mainlobe. As the result the performance of the antenna channels will be affected. Firstly, this paper presents analysis of effect of the amplitude and phase errors on angular spectrum using Monte-Carlo simulations. Then, the results are compared with performed measurements. Finally, the error correction with a self-calibration method is proposed and its angle dependency is evaluated. It is shown that the values of the errors change with an incident angle, which leads to a required angle-dependent calibration.
Investigation on Bowtie Antennas Operating at Very Low Frequencies for Ground Penetrating Radar
(2023)
The efficiency of Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) systems significantly depends on the antenna performance as the signal has to propagate through lossy and inhomogeneous media. GPR antennas should have a low operating frequency for greater penetration depth, high gain and efficiency to increase the receiving power and should be compact and lightweight for ease of GPR surveying. In this paper, two different designs of Bowtie antennas operating at very low frequencies are proposed and analyzed.
Nonlinearity can give rise to intermodulation distortions in surface acoustic wave (SAW) devices operating at high input power levels. To understand such undesired effects, a finite element method (FEM) simulation model in combination with a perturbation theory is applied to find out the role of different materials and higher order nonlinear tensor data for the nonlinearities in such acoustic devices. At high power, the SAW devices containing metal, piezoelectric substrate, and temperature compensating (TC) layers are subject to complicated geometrical, material, and other nonlinearities. In this paper, third-order nonlinearities in TC-SAW devices are investigated. The materials used are LiNbO 3 -rot128YX as the substrate and copper electrodes covered with a SiO 2 film as the TC layer. An effective nonlinearity constant for a given system is determined by comparison of nonlinear P-matrix simulations to third-order intermodulation measurements of test filters in a first step. By employing these constants from different systems, i.e., different metallization ratios, in nonlinear periodic P-matrix simulations, a direct comparison to nonlinear periodic FEM-simulations yields scaling factors for the materials used. Thus, the contribution of the different materials to the nonlinear behavior of TC-SAW devices is obtained and the role of metal electrodes, substrate, and TC film are discussed in detail.
Ultra wide band (UWB) signals are well suited both for short-range wireless communication and for high-precision localization applications. Channel impulse response (CIR) analysis in UWB systems is a major element in localization estimation. In this paper, practical aspects of CIR are presented. I.e. a technique for the construction of the accumulated echo-gram of a multipath delayed signal is proposed. Decawave hardware was used to demonstrate the technique of analysis of fine structure of signals with a sub-nanosecond resolution. Temporal stability, reliability and two-way characteristics of such echo-grams are discussed as well. The results of using two EVK1000 radio modules as a radar installation to detect a target in indoor environments prove that a low cost UWB intrusion detection and through-the-wall-vision systems might be developed using the proposed technique.
The Bluetooth community is in the process to develop mesh technology. This is highly promising as Bluetooth is widely available in Smart Phones and Tablet PCs, allowing an easy access to the Internet of Things. In this paper work, we investigate the performance of Bluetooth enabled mesh networking that we performed to identify the strengths and weaknesses. A demonstrator for this protocol has been implemented by using the Fruity Mesh protocol implementation. Extensive test cases have been executed to measure the performance, the reliability, the power consumption and the delay. For this, an Automated Physical Testbed (APTB), which emulates the physical channels has been used. The results of these measurements are considered useful for the real implementation of Bluetooth; not only for home and building automation, but also for industrial automation.
During the coronavirus crisis, labs had to be offered in digital form in mechanical engineering at short notice. For this purpose, digital twins of more complex test benches in the field of fluid energy machines were used in the mechanical engineering course, with which the students were able to interact remotely to obtain measurement data. The concept of the respective lab was revised with regard to its implementation as a remote laboratory. Fortunately, real-world labs were able to be fully replaced by remote labs. Student perceptions of remote labs were mostly positive. This paper explains the concept and design of the digital twins and the lab as well as the layout, procedure, and finally the results of the accompanying evaluation. However, the implementation of the digital twins to date does not yet include features which address the tactile experience of working in real-world labs.
Theoretical details about optics and photonics are not common knowledge nowadays. Physicists are keen to scientifically explain ‘light,’ which has a huge impact on our lives. It is necessary to examine it from multiple perspectives and to make the knowledge accessible to the public in an interdisciplinary, scientifically well-grounded and appealing medial way. To allow an information exchange on a global scale, our project “Invisible Light” establishes a worldwide accessible platform. Its contents will not be created by a single instance, but user-generated, with the help of the global community. The article describes the infotainment portal “Invisible Light,” which stores scientific articles about light and photonics and makes them accessible worldwide. All articles are tagged with geo-coordinates, so they can be clearly identified and localized. A smartphone application is used for visualization, transmitting the information to users in real time by means of an augmented reality application. Scientific information is made accessible for a broad audience and in an attractive manner.
Due to its potential in improving the efficiency of energy supply, smart energy metering (SEM) has become an area of interest with the surge in Internet of Things (IoT). SEM entails remote monitoring and control of the sensors and actuators associated with the energy supply system. This provides a flexible platform to conceive and implement new data driven Demand Side Management (DSM) mechanisms. The IoT enablement allows the data to be gathered and analyzed at requisite granularity. In addition to efficient use of energy resources and provisioning of power, developing countries face an additional challenge of temporal mismatch in generation capacity and load factors. This leads to widespread deployment of inefficient and expensive Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) solutions for limited power provisioning during resulting blackouts. Our proposed “Soft-UPS” allows dynamic matching of load and generation through a combination of managed curtailment. This eliminates inefficiencies in the energy and power value chain and allows a data-driven approach to solving a widespread problem in developing countries, simultaneously reducing both upfront and running costs of conventional UPS and storage. A scalable and modular platform is proposed and implemented in this paper. The architecture employs “WiMODino” using LoRaWAN with a “Lite Gateway” and SQLite repository for data storage. Role based access to the system through an android application has also been demonstrated for monitoring and control.

IPv6 over LoRaWAN™
(2016)
Although short-range wireless communication explicitly targets local and regional applications, range continues to be a highly important issue. The range directly depends on the so-called link budget, which can be increased by the choice of modulation and coding schemes. The recent transceiver generation in particular comes with extensive and flexible support for software-defined radio (SDR). The SX127× family from Semtech Corp. is a member of this device class and promises significant benefits for range, robust performance, and battery lifetime compared to competing technologies. This contribution gives a short overview of the technologies to support Long Range (LoRa™) and the corresponding Layer 2 protocol (LoRaWAN™). It particularly describes the possibility to combine the Internet Protocol, i.e. IPv6, into LoRaWAN™, so that it can be directly integrated into a full-fledged Internet of Things (IoT). The proposed solution, which we name 6LoRaWAN, has been implemented and tested; results of the experiments are also shown in this paper.
