The system needs to be able to fulfil all expected load cases, but at the same time the components should interact in an energy-efficient way.

It may be reasonable to choose a design of spatially distributed pumps which are connected by pipes in at least two dimensions. This leads to a large variety of possible system topologies. To solve such problems in a reasonable time frame, the nonlinear technical characteristics must be modelled as simple as possible, while still achieving a sufficiently good representation of reality.

The concept focuses on slums within large urban areas, which are often characterized by a lack of an appropriate water supply. We apply methods of mathematical optimization aiming to find a network describing the optimal supply infrastructure. Hereby, we choose between different decentral and central approaches combining supply by motorized vehicles with supply by pipe systems. For the purposes of illustration, we apply the approach to two small slum clusters in Dhaka and Dar es Salaam. We show our optimization results, which represent the lowest cost water supply systems possible. Additionally, we compare the optimal solutions of the two clusters (also for varying input parameters, such as population densities and slum size development over time) and describe how the result of the optimization depends on the entered remote sensing data.}, language = {en} } @incollection{RaoPathroseHueningetal.2019, author = {Rao, Deepak and Pathrose, Plato and H{\"u}ning, Felix and Sid, Jithin}, title = {An Approach for Validating Safety of Perception Software in Autonomous Driving Systems}, series = {Model-Based Safety and Assessment: 6th International Symposium, IMBSA 2019, Thessaloniki, Greece, October 16-18, 2019, Proceedings}, booktitle = {Model-Based Safety and Assessment: 6th International Symposium, IMBSA 2019, Thessaloniki, Greece, October 16-18, 2019, Proceedings}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {Cham}, isbn = {978-3-030-32872-6}, doi = {10.1007/978-3-030-32872-6_20}, pages = {303 -- 316}, year = {2019}, abstract = {The increasing complexity of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) presents a challenging task to validate safe and reliable performance of these systems under varied conditions. The test and validation of ADAS/AD with real test drives, although important, involves huge costs and time. Simulation tools provide an alternative with the added advantage of reproducibility but often use ideal sensors, which do not reflect real sensor output accurately. This paper presents a new validation methodology using fault injection, as recommended by the ISO 26262 standard, to test software and system robustness. In our work, we investigated and developed a tool capable of inserting faults at different software and system levels to verify its robustness. The scope of this paper is to cover the fault injection test for the Visteon's DriveCore™ system, a centralized domain controller for Autonomous driving which is sensor agnostic and SoC agnostic. With this new approach, the validation of safety monitoring functionality and its behavior can be tested using real-world data instead of synthetic data from simulation tools resulting in having better confidence in system performance before proceeding with in-vehicle testing.}, language = {en} } @techreport{RahierRitzWallenborn2014, author = {Rahier, Michael and Ritz, Thomas and Wallenborn, Ramona}, title = {Elektromobilit{\"a}t in einer vernetzten Welt : Potenziale f{\"u}r die IT-Branche bei der Organisation der Mobilit{\"a}t von morgen ; Info-Brosch{\"u}re}, publisher = {eBusiness-Lotse}, address = {Aachen}, pages = {9 S. : Ill., graph.

Not just personal data is shared (e.g. in social networks) but also mobility. Together with the increased ecological awareness of the recent years, new mobility concepts have evolved. E-carsharing has become a symbol for these changes of attitude. The management of a shared car fleet, the energy management of electric mobility and the management of various carsharing users with individual likes and dislikes are just some of the major challenges of e-carsharing. Weaving it into integrated mobility concepts, this raises complexity even further. These challenges can only be overcome by an appropriate amount of well-shaped information available at the right place and time. In order to gather, process and share the required information, fleet cars have to be equipped with modern information and communication technology (ICT) and become so-called fully connected cars. Ensuring the usability of these ICT systems is another challenge that is often neglected, even though it is usability that makes carsharing comfortable, attractive and supports users' new attitudes. By means of an integrated and consistent concept for human-machine interaction (HMI), the usability of such systems can be raised tremendously.}, language = {en} } @article{PoettgenEdererAltherretal.2015, author = {P{\"o}ttgen, Philipp and Ederer, Thorsten and Altherr, Lena and Lorenz, Ulf and Pelz, Peter F.}, title = {Examination and optimization of a heating circuit for energy-efficient buildings}, series = {Energy Technology}, volume = {4}, journal = {Energy Technology}, number = {1}, publisher = {WILEY-VCH Verlag}, address = {Weinheim}, isbn = {2194-4296}, doi = {10.1002/ente.201500252}, pages = {136 -- 144}, year = {2015}, abstract = {The conference center darmstadtium in Darmstadt is a prominent example of energy efficient buildings. Its heating system consists of different source and consumer circuits connected by a Zortstr{\"o}m reservoir. Our goal was to reduce the energy costs of the system as much as possible. Therefore, we analyzed its supply circuits. The first step towards optimization is a complete examination of the system: 1) Compilation of an object list for the system, 2) collection of the characteristic curves of the components, and 3) measurement of the load profiles of the heat and volume-flow demand. Instead of modifying the system manually and testing the solution by simulation, the second step was the creation of a global optimization program. The objective was to minimize the total energy costs for one year. We compare two different topologies and show opportunities for significant savings.}, language = {en} } @incollection{PuliniGligorevic2009, author = {Pulini, Paola and Gligorevic, Snjezana}, title = {WIMAX performance in the airport environment}, series = {Multi-carrier systems \& solutions 2009.
