Given two embedded systems that perform the same task, how can we tell without looking at their source code whether or not they have been independently developed? This is a serious problem that might cause large monetary loss for embedded software companies that distribute their intellectual property (IP) without taking countermeasures against plagiarists. By committing IP violation, the plagiarist can save the cost and time that it took to develop the original software and bring a system with the same functionality but for a cheaper price to market.We address this problem by making use of side channels and faults — properties of physical systems that allow us to distinguish some of the performed instructions and computations. By passively observing the side channels, or even by actively creating them, we can detect plagiarized IP and prove or disprove its existence. In this work we present an overview of our research for IP protection in software.Related lab set-ups for teaching side channel and fault analysis in undergraduate and graduate studies at universities are described. This includes our regularly used Differential Power Analysis (DPA) Lab and Differential Fault Analysis (DFA) Lab as well as advanced labs that result from our research in side channel and fault channel watermarking.

Solar energy plants are one of the key options to serve the rising global energy need with low environmental impact. Aerosols reduce global solar radiation due to absorption and scattering and therewith solar energy yields. Depending on the aerosol composition and size distribution they reduce the direct component of the solar radiation and modify the direction of the diffuse component compared to standard atmospheric conditions without aerosols.
Solar energy is one option to serve the rising global energy demand with low environmental impact. Building an energy system with a considerable share of solar power requires long-term investment and a careful investigation of potential sites. Therefore, understanding the impacts from varying regionally and locally determined meteorological conditions on solar energy production will influence energy yield projections.
Reliable and regional differentiated power forecasts are required to guarantee an efficient and economic energy transition towards renewable energies. Amongst other renewable energy technologies, e.g. wind mills, photovoltaic (PV) systems are an essential component of this transition being cost-efficient and simply to install. Reliable power forecasts are however required for a grid integration of photovoltaic systems, which among other data requires high-resolution spatio-temporal global irradiance data.
The documentation requirements of data published in long term archives have significantly grown over the last decade. At WDCC the data publishing process is assisted by “Atarrabi”, a web-based workflow system for reviewing and editing metadata information by the data authors and the publication agent. The system ensures high metadata quality for long-term use of the data with persistent identifiers (DOI/URN). By these well-defined references (DOI) credit can properly be given to the data producers in any publication.

This work discusses how to use OSM for robotic applications and aims at starting a discussion between the OSM and the robotics community. OSM contains much topological and semantic information that can be directly used in robotics and offers various advantages: 1) Standardized format with existing tooling. 2) The graph structure allows to compose the OSM models with domain-specific semantics by adding custom nodes, relations, and key-value pairs. 3) Information about many places is already available and can be used by robots since it is driven by a community effort.
In this work a graph-based, semantic mapping approach for indoor robotics applications is presented, which is extending OpenStreetMap (OSM) with robotic-specific, semantic, topological, and geometrical information. Models for common indoor structures (such as walls, doors, corridors, elevators, etc.) are introduced. The architectural principles support composition with additional domain and application specific knowledge. As an example, a model for an area is introduced and it is explained how this can be used in navigation. A key advantages of the proposed graph-based map representation is that it allows seamless transitions between maps, e.g., indoor and outdoor maps by exploiting the hierarchical structure of the graphs. Finally, the compatibility of the approach with existing, grid-based motion planning algorithms is shown.
The paper introduces a random number generator (RNG) based on the avalanche noise of two diodes. A true random number generator (TRNG) generates true random numbers with the use of the electronic noise produced by two avalanche diodes. The amplified outputs of the diodes are sampled and digitized. The difference between the two concurrently sampled and digitized outputs is calculated and used to select a seed and to drive a pseudo-random number generator (PRNG). The PRNG is an xorshift generator that generates 1024 bits in each cycle. Every sequence of 1024 bits is moderately modified and output. The TRNG delivers the next seed and the next cycle begins. The statistical behavior of the generator is analyzed and presented.
Gleichlaufgelenke als Teil der Antriebswellen (Seitenwellen und Längswellen) sind in allen maßgeblichen Triebstrangkonfigurationen im direkten Leistungsfluss angeordnet. Ihre Hauptfunktion ist die Übertragung einer Antriebsleistung unter Ermöglichung von Abbeugung und Axialverschiebung. Dieser Beitrag soll einen Überblick zu den wesentlichen, auf dem heutigen Markt verbreiteten Bauweisen und ihren jeweiligen Einsatzgebieten geben. Besonders berücksichtigt werden hierbei neue Gelenkkonzepte, die sich aufgrund ihrer besonderen Gestaltung durch deutlich höhere Wirkungsgrade auszeichnen. Der Einfluss auf den Energieverbrauch soll quantifiziert werden, hierzu wird ein neuartiger Berechnungsansatz vorgestellt, der eine einfache Abschätzung des Einflusses von Wirkungsgradverbesserungen auf den Energieverbrauch für verschiedener Antriebskonzepte (ICE / Hybrid / E-Fahrzeuge) erlaubt.
This paper discusses the analysis of mechanical power flow in an electric motor drive operating under variation of conditions. The drive system vibration generates the oscillation in the supplied active power which can reduce performance of the system and increase the actual load on the shaft. It is shown that the vibration damper installation significantly decreases the oscillations in mechanical power flow on the motor shaft and improves characteristics of the system operation. The paper provide analysis of two models of the electric drive installed on the platform - the system which is quipped with vibration dampers and without.
This Business English course in entrepreneurship goes beyond communicative language instruction and offers a course designed to introduce students to innovative thinking, entrepreneurship and sustainable business practices. About 120 students in their first year are enrolled as part of the required foreign language module in Business Management (B.Sc.). Each week students learn new concepts and terminology in sustainable business practices while applying the material in a simulation task-based course using English as a lingua franca. It prepares students to work in an international context while offering online components for autonomous learning. This 12-14 week course is designed in a student-centered and blended learning format with a flipped classroom approach. Through a grant from the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research the “work&study project” will offer additional online materials by developing new educational apps to enhance autonomous language learning and making the app content available under the Creative Commons license. The research project focuses on offering new learning environments to enhance the opportunities for non-traditional students enrolled at Bonn-Rhein-Sieg University of Applied Sciences. This paper will focus on the development of the first apps and results of the first testing phase. It shows how game-based learning and elements of gamification were added for educational purposes to enhance teaching and learning processes that were already well established.
In presence of conflicting or ambiguous visual cues in complex scenes, performing 3D selection and manipulation tasks can be challenging. To improve motor planning and coordination, we explore audio-tactile cues to inform the user about the presence of objects in hand proximity, e.g., to avoid unwanted object penetrations. We do so through a novel glove-based tactile interface, enhanced by audio cues. Through two user studies, we illustrate that proximity guidance cues improve spatial awareness, hand motions, and collision avoidance behaviors, and show how proximity cues in combination with collision and friction cues can significantly improve performance.
