The framework offers a multitude of analysis options and is used by many investigators worldwide. Volatility currently comes with a command line interface only, which might be a hinderer for some investigators to use the tool. In this paper we present a GUI and extensions for the Volatility Framework, which on the one hand simplify the usage of the tool and on the other hand offer additional functionality like storage of results in a database, shortcuts for long Volatility Framework command sequences, and entirely new commands based on correlation of data stored in the database.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SchuetzBreuerHoefkenetal.2013, author = {Sch{\"u}tz, P. and Breuer, M. and H{\"o}fken, Hans-Wilhelm and Schuba, Marko}, title = {Malware proof on mobile phone exhibits based on GSM/GPRS traces}, series = {The Second International Conference on Cyber Security, Cyber Peacefare and Digital Forensic (CyberSec 2013) : 04.03. - 06.03.2013, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia}, booktitle = {The Second International Conference on Cyber Security, Cyber Peacefare and Digital Forensic (CyberSec 2013) : 04.03. - 06.03.2013, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia}, publisher = {The Society of Digital Information and Wireless Communication}, isbn = {978-0-9853483-7-3}, pages = {89 -- 96}, year = {2013}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{EngelsSchnabel2012, author = {Engels, Elmar and Schnabel, Holger}, title = {Rapid-control-prototyping of industrial drives for the sercos automation bus}, series = {13th International Workshop on Mechatronics (MECATRONICS), 2012 9th France-Japan \& 7th Europe-Asia Congress on and Research and Education in Mechatronics (REM)}, booktitle = {13th International Workshop on Mechatronics (MECATRONICS), 2012 9th France-Japan \& 7th Europe-Asia Congress on and Research and Education in Mechatronics (REM)}, isbn = {978-1-4673-4771-6}, pages = {177 -- 181}, year = {2012}, abstract = {This article describes the functionality of a MATLAB® library that can be used to develop motion-logic applications in MATLAB programming language for industrial drive and control systems using the well known sercos automation bus.

It has matured over the last 25 or so years quite a bit. That is, a number of high-level control languages and architectures have emerged from the field. One concern in this regard is the action language GOLOG. GOLOG has been used in a rather large number of applications as a high-level control language ranging from intelligent service robots to soccer robots. For the lower level robot software, the Robot Operating System (ROS) has been around for more than a decade now and it has developed into the standard middleware for robot applications. ROS provides a large number of packages for standard tasks in robotics like localisation, navigation, and object recognition. Interestingly enough, only little work within ROS has gone into the high-level control of robots. In this paper, we describe our approach to marry the GOLOG action language with ROS. In particular, we present our architecture on inte grating golog++, which is based on the GOLOG dialect Readylog, with the Robot Operating System. With an example application on the Pepper service robot, we show how primitive actions can be easily mapped to the ROS ActionLib framework and present our control architecture in detail.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{NiemuellerLakemeyerFerrein2013, author = {Niem{\"u}ller, Tim and Lakemeyer, Gerhard and Ferrein, Alexander}, title = {Incremental task-level reasoning in a competitive factory automation scenario}, series = {Designing intelligent robots : reintegrating AI II ; papers from the AAAI spring symposium ; [held March 25 - 27, 2013 in Palo Alto, California, USA, on the campus of Stanford University].

These above of all are of decisive importance in order to give learners an understanding of theory through practical work.This paper is a contribution to the implementation of distance learning for laboratory work applicable for several upper secondary educational facilities. Its aim is to provide a paradigm for hybrid teaching to analyze and control a non-linear system depicted by a tank model. For this reason, we redesign a full series of laboratory sessions on the basis of various challenges. Thus, it is suitable to serve different reference levels of the European Qualifications Framework (EQF).We present problem-based learning through online platforms to compensate the lack of a laboratory learning environment. With a task deduced from their future profession, we give students the opportunity to develop own solutions in self-defined time intervals. A requirements specification provides the framework conditions in terms of time and content for students having to deal with the challenges of the project in a self-organized manner with regard to inhomogeneous previous knowledge. If the concept of Complete Action is introduced in classes before, they will automatically apply it while executing the project.The goal is to combine students' scientific understanding with a procedural knowledge. We suggest a series of remote laboratory sessions that combine a problem formulation from the subject area of Measurement, Control and Automation Technology with a project assignment that is common in industry by providing extracts from a requirements specification.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{HueningStuettgen2021, author = {H{\"u}ning, Felix and St{\"u}ttgen, Marcel}, title = {Work in Progress: Interdisciplinary projects in times of COVID-19 crisis - challenges, risks and chances}, series = {2021 IEEE Global Engineering Education Conference (EDUCON)}, booktitle = {2021 IEEE Global Engineering Education Conference (EDUCON)}, publisher = {IEEE}, address = {New York, NY}, doi = {10.1109/EDUCON46332.2021.9454006}, pages = {1175 -- 1179}, year = {2021}, abstract = {Project work and inter disciplinarity are integral parts of today's engineering work.

While protection of ICS on process management level is relatively straightforward - well known office IT security mechanisms can be used - protection on field bus level is harder to achieve as there are real-time and production requirements like 24x7 to consider. One option to improve security on field bus level is to introduce controls that help to detect and to react on attacks. This paper introduces an initial set of intrusion detection mechanisms for the field bus protocol EtherCAT. To this end existing Ethernet attack vectors including packet injection and man-in-the-middle attacks are tested in an EtherCAT environment, where they could interrupt the EtherCAT network and may even cause physical damage.

We show the ability of this systematic design approach with a ventilation system for buildings as a use case example. Based on a Mixed-Integer Nonlinear Program (MINLP) we model the ventilation system. We use binary variables to model the selection of different pipe diameters. Multiple fans are model with the help of scaling laws. The whole system is represented by a graph, where the edges represent the pipes and fans and the nodes represents the source of air for cooling and the sinks, that have to be cooled. At the beginning, the human designer chooses a construction kit of different suitable fans and pipes of different diameters and different load cases. These boundary conditions define a variety of different possible system topologies. It is not possible to consider all topologies by hand. With the help of state of the art solvers, on the other side, it is possible to solve this MINLP. Next to this, we also consider the effects of malfunctions in different components. Therefore, we show a first approach to measure the resilience of the shown example use case. Further, we compare the conventional approach with designs that are more resilient. These more resilient designs are derived by extending the before mentioned model with further constraints, that consider explicitly the resilience of the overall system.

This approach may give rise to a combinatorial explosion if the preselection cannot be cut down to a reasonable number by human intuition. To reduce the number of discrete decisions, we integrate laws derived from similarity theory into the optimization model. Since the physical characteristics of a production series are similar, it can be described by affinity and scaling laws. Making use of these laws, our construction kit can be modeled more efficiently: Instead of a preselection of components, it now encompasses whole model ranges. This allows us to significantly increase the number of possible set-ups in our model.

We have realized a prototype by using EBSCO Discovery Service in combination with IBM Watson Explorer and demonstrated the results in real-life research projects. Potential addressees are research institutions, consulting firms, and decision-makers in politics and business practice.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{BrockmannSultanowCzarnecki2018, author = {Brockmann, Carsten and Sultanow, Eldar and Czarnecki, Christian}, title = {Enterprise architectures between agility and traditional methodologies}, series = {GI Edition Proceedings Band 285 Workshops der INFORMATIK 2018}, booktitle = {GI Edition Proceedings Band 285 Workshops der INFORMATIK 2018}, editor = {Czarnecki, Christian and Brockmann, Carsten and Sultanow, Eldar and Koschmider, Agnes and Selzer, Annika and Gesellschaft f{\"u}r Informatik e.

In this context, the enhanced Telecom Operations Map (eTOM) is a domain-specific process reference model that is offered by the industry organization TM Forum. In practice, eTOM is well accepted and confirmed as de facto standard. It provides process definitions and process flows on different levels of detail. This article discusses the reference modeling of eTOM, i.e., the design, the resulting artifact, and its evaluation based on three project cases. The application of eTOM in three projects illustrates the design approach and concrete models on strategic and operational levels. The article follows the Design Science Research (DSR) paradigm. It contributes with concrete design artifacts to the transformational needs of the telecommunications industry and offers lessons-learned from a general DSR perspective.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{NursinskiStolbergGangatharanCzarnecki2016, author = {Nursinski-Stolberg, Andr{\´e} and Gangatharan, Kiritharan and Czarnecki, Christian}, title = {Development of a subject-oriented reference process model for the telecommunications industry}, series = {GI Edition Proceedings Band 259 INFORMATIK 2016}, booktitle = {GI Edition Proceedings Band 259 INFORMATIK 2016}, editor = {Mayr, Heinrich C. and Pinzger, Martin}, publisher = {Gesellschaft f{\"u}r Informatik e.V.}, address = {Bonn}, isbn = {9783885796534}, issn = {1617-5468}, pages = {699 -- 712}, year = {2016}, abstract = {Generally the usage of reference models can be structured top-down or bottom-up. The practical need of agile change and flexible organizational implementation requires a consistent mapping to an operational level. In this context, well-established reference process models are typically structured top-down. The subject-oriented Business Process Management (sBPM) offers a modeling concept that is structured bottom-up and concentrates on the process actors on an operational level. This paper applies sBPM to the enhanced Telecom Operations Map (eTOM), a well-accepted reference process model in the telecommunications industry. The resulting design artifact is a concrete example for a combination of a bottom-up and top-down developed reference model.

Increased competition, short innovation cycles, changed usage patterns, increased customer expectations and cost reduction are the main drivers. Our objective is to analyze to what extend transformation projects have improved the orientation towards the end-customers. Therefore, we selected 38 real-life case studies that are dealing with customer orientation. Our analysis is based on a telecommunication-specific framework that aligns strategy, business processes and information systems. The result of our analysis shows the following: transformation projects that aim to improve the customer orientation are combined with clear goals on costs and revenue of the enterprise. These projects are usually directly linked to the customer touch points, but also to the development and provisioning of products. Furthermore, the analysis shows that customer orientation is not the sole trigger for transformation. There is no one-fits-all solution; rather, improved customer orientation needs aligned changes of business processes as well as information systems related to different parts of the company.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{CzarneckiHeuserSpiliopoulou2009, author = {Czarnecki, Christian and Heuser, Marcus and Spiliopoulou, Myra}, title = {How does the implementation of a next generation network influence a telecommunication company?}, series = {European and Mediterranean Conference on Information Systems}, booktitle = {European and Mediterranean Conference on Information Systems}, editor = {Irani, Zahir}, publisher = {Brunel University}, address = {London}, isbn = {9781902316697}, pages = {1 -- 11}, year = {2009}, abstract = {As the potential of a Next Generation Network (NGN) is recognized, telecommunication companies consider switching to it. Although the implementation of an NGN seems to be merely a modification of the network infrastructure, it may trigger or require changes in the whole company and even influence the company strategy. To capture the effects of NGN we propose a framework based on concepts of business engineering and technical recommendations for the introduction of NGN technology. The specific design of solutions for the layers "Strategy", "Processes" and "Information Systems" as well as their interdependencies are an essential characteristic of the developed framework. We have per-formed a case study on NGN implementation and observed that all layers captured by our framework are influenced by the introduction of an NGN.}, language = {en} }
