We propose and apply a requirements engineering approach that focuses on security and privacy properties and takes into account various stakeholder interests. The proposed methodology facilitates the integration of security and privacy by design into the requirements engineering process. Thus, specific, detailed security and privacy requirements can be implemented from the very beginning of a software project. The method is applied to an exemplary application scenario in the logistics industry. The approach includes the application of threat and risk rating methodologies, a technique to derive technical requirements from legal texts, as well as a matching process to avoid duplication and accumulate all essential requirements.
The IT unit is not the only provider of information technology (IT) used in business processes. Aiming for increased performance, many business workgroups autonomously implement IT resources not covered by their organizational IT service management. This is called shadow IT. Risks and inefficiencies associated with this phenomenon challenge organizations. Organizations need to decide how to deal with identified shadow IT and if the business or the IT unit should be responsible for corresponding tasks and components. This study proposes design principles for a method to control identified shadow IT following action design research in four organizational settings. The procedure results in an allocation of IT task responsibilities between the business workgroups and the IT unit following risk considerations and transaction cost economics, leading to an IT service governance. This contributes to governance research regarding adaptive and efficient arrangements with reduced risks for business-located IT activities.
Konventionelle, von Dieselmotoren angetriebene Radlader beeinträchtigen die Lebensqualität der Menschen in ihrer unmittelbaren Umgebung mit Lärm- und Schadstoffemissionen. Das vom BMBF geförderte Forschungsvorhaben "Emissionsarmer Elektroradlader" verfolgt das Ziel, die lokalen Emissionen von Radladern deutlich herabzusetzen und die Effizienz des Fahrzeugs zu steigern. Im Rahmen des Vorhabens wurde ein konventioneller Radlader auf elektrische Antriebe umgerüstet. Als Energiespeicher dient eine LiFeYPO4-Batterie, die für eine Betriebsdauer von vier Stunden ausgelegt ist. In ersten praktischen Untersuchungen wurde die Energiebilanz des Emissionsarmen Elektro-Radladers mit der des konventionellen Serienfahrzeugs verglichen. Dazu wurde ein modifizierter Y-Arbeitszyklus entworfen, der sich an den üblichen Arbeitsaufgaben des Radladers orientiert und sich durch eine hohe Reproduzierbarkeit auszeichnet. Für die vollständige Bewertung wird die komplette Kette der Energieumwandlung betrachtet, beginnend mit der Energie im Kraftstoff bzw. der dem Stromnetz entnommenen Energie, bis zur mechanischen Arbeit, die das Gerät verrichtet. Daraus lassen sich Rückschlüsse auf die unterschiedlichen CO2-Emissionen beider Fahrzeuge ableiten.

This PhD investigation lies at the intersection of Architecture, Textile Design and Interaction Design and speculates about sustainable forms of future living, focussing on bionic principles to create alternative lightweight building structures with textiles and digital fabrication techniques. In an interdisciplinary, practice- based design approach, informed by radical case studies from the 1960s to 80s on soft architectures like Archigram, Buckminster Fuller, Cedric Price, or Yona Friedman and critical theory on new materialism, (D. Haraway 1997, K. Barad 1998, J. Bennett 2007) sociological, philosophical (B. Latour 2005, G.Deleuze F., Guattari F 1987) and phenomenological thinkers (L. Malafouris 2005, J.Rancière 2004, B. Massumi 2002, N. Bourriaud 2002 , M. Merleau-Ponty 1963) this research investigates the cultural and social rootedness (Verortung) of novel materials and technologies, exploring in between prosthetic relations between the body and the environment.
We consider the problem of increasing the informative value of electrocardiographic (ECG) surveys using data from multichannel electrocardiographic leads, that include both recorded electrocardiosignals and the coordinates of the electrodes placed on the surface of the human torso. In this area, we were interested in reconstruction of the surface distribution of the equivalent sources during the cardiac cycle at relatively low hardware cost. In our work, we propose to reconstruct the equivalent electrical sources by numerical methods, based on integral connection between the density of electrical sources and potential in a conductive medium. We consider maps of distributions of equivalent electric sources on the heart surface (HSSM), presenting source distributions in the form of a simple or double electrical layer. We indicate the dynamics of the heart electrical activity by the space-time mapping of equivalent electrical sources in HSSM.
In this paper, utilisation of an Unscented Kalman Filter for concurrently performing disturbance estimation and wave filtering is investigated. Experimental results are provided that demonstrate very good performance subject to both tasks. For the filter, a dynamic model has been used which was optimised via correlation analysis in order to obtain a minimum set of relevant parameters. This model has also been validated by experiments deploying a small vessel. A simulation study is presented to evaluate the performance using known quantities. Experimental trials have been performed on the Rhine river. The results show that for instance flow direction and varying current velocities can continuously be estimated with decent precision, even while the boat is performing turning manoeuvres. Moreover, the filtering properties are very satisfactory. This makes the filter suitable for being used, for instance, in autonomous vessel applications or assistance systems.
In this paper, a systematic comparison of three different advanced control strategies for automated docking of a vessel is presented. The controllers are automatically tuned offline by applying an optimization process using simulations of the whole system including trajectory planner and state and disturbance observer. Then investigations are conducted subject to performance and robustness using Monte Carlos simulation with varying model parameters and disturbances. The control strategies have also been tested in full scale experiments using the solar research vessel Solgenia. The investigated control strategies all have demonstrated very good performance in both, simulation and real world experiments.

Durch den Einsatz von mobilen Endgeräten (z.B. Tablets, Smartphones) erschließen sich immer mehr Möglichkeiten, die Ausführung von Geschäftsprozessen zu unterstützen. Beispielsweise können Geschäftsprozessaktivitäten (z.B. Genehmigung eines Angebots) ortsunabhängig bearbeitet werden, wodurch die Durchlaufzeit signifikant reduziert wird. Die Nutzung von mobilen Apps beschränkt sich hierbei meist nur auf die Unterstützung von effizienter und flexibler Interaktion zwischen den verschiedenen ausführenden Rollen. Dieser Artikel beschreibt, wie mobile Apps nicht nur die Ausführung, sondern auch die Optimierung von Geschäftsprozessen unterstützen können. Hierzu werden vordefinierte Qualitätskriterien kontextabhängig während der Ausführung von Aktivitäten erfasst. Die durch traditionelle Methoden erfassten Daten (z.B. Messung von Kennzahlen) werden somit durch in Echtzeit gesammeltes User Feedback ergänzt. Der Ansatz wird am Beispiel einer eigens entwickelten mobilen App demonstriert und evaluiert.
