This article proposes the concept of a simulation framework for environmental sensors with multilevel abstraction in agricultural scenarios. The implementation case study is a simulation of a grain-harvesting scenario enabled by LiDAR sensors. Environmental sensor models as well as kinematics and dynamic behavior of machines are based on the robotics simulator Gazebo. Models for powertrain, machine process aggregates and peripheral simulation components are implemented with the help of MATLAB/ Simulink and with the robotics middleware Robot Operating System (ROS). This article deals with the general concept of a multilevel simulation framework and in particular with sensor and environmental modeling.
The objective of this review is a global assessment of the economics of second‐generation biorefineries, with a focus on the use of food waste and agricultural residues for chemical production by applying biotechnological processes. Analyses are conducted on feedstock and product distribution, applied economic models, and profitability figures for the period 2013–2018. In a study of 163 articles on different biorefinery systems, the production of chemicals is identified as the second major product class, after bioenergy. Bagasse and straw are frequently analyzed second‐generation feedstocks. Based on the evaluation of 22 articles, second‐generation biorefineries producing chemicals by applying biotechnological processes proves to be economically feasible. On average, both the internal rate of return (IRR) and the return on investment (ROI) are 20% and the payback period (PP) is 6 years. The cost share of feedstock in biorefineries is between 0–50%. The price of the end product and the fermentation yields have the most impact on profitability. The processing of food waste that has industrial and municipal origins appears more economical than the processing of agricultural residues. Scientists, policy makers and entrepreneurs with an appropriate risk tolerance are advised to pay particular attention to municipal food waste and the potential economic production of carboxylic acids. For various economic issues related to biorefineries, dynamic‐deterministic models are recommended, which can be extended by a stochastic model. This review provides an initial overview of the economic feasibility of second‐generation biorefineries. Further techno‐economic analyses are required to produce statistically significant statements on key profitability figures. © 2020 The Authors.

This paper presents an optimized algorithm for estimating static and dynamic gait parameters. We use a marker- and contact-less motion capture system that identifies 20 joints of a person walking along a corridor.
Based on the proposed gait cycle detection basic metrics as walking frequency, step/stride length, and support phases are estimated automatically. Applying a rigid body model, we are capable to calculate static and dynamic gait stability metrics. We conclude with initial results of a clinical study evaluating orthopaedic technical support.
Interpolation of data in smart city architectures is an eminent task for the provision of reliable services. Furthermore, it is a key functionality for information validation between spatiotemporally related sensors. Nevertheless, many existing projects use a simplified geospatial model that does not take the infrastructure, which affects events and effects in the real world, into account. There are various available algorithms for interpolation and the calculation of routes on infrastructure based graphs and distances on geospatial data. This work proposes a combined approach by interconnecting detailed geospatial data whilst regarding the underlying infrastructure model.
Die Nutzung von Sensorsystemen bei der teilflächenspezifischen Bewirtschaftung eines Schlags steigert den Ertrag sowie die Wirtschaftlichkeit des Pflanzenanbaus. Dennoch tragen weitere Faktoren zur optimalen Nährstoffversorgung einer Pflanze bei, als sie von solch einem lokal arbeitenden System erfasst werden. Um die Effizienz dieser Precision Farming Systeme auszubauen ist der nächste, hier erfolgreich durchgeführte Schritt die Anbindung der mobilen Landmaschine über das Internet an eine regionsübergreifende Datenanalyseplattform und die Ausführung zeitkritischer Optimierungsfunktionen auf der Landmaschine.
he development of context-aware applications is a difficult and error-prone task. The dynamics of the environmental context combined with the complexity of the applications poses a vast number of possibilities for mistakes during the creation of new applications. Therefore it is important to test applications before they are deployed in a life system. For this reason, this paper proposes a testing tool, which will allow for automatic generation of various test cases from application description documents. Semantic annotations are used to create specific test data for context-aware applications. A test case reduction methodology based on test case diversity investigations ensures scalability of the proposed automated testing approach.
Smart city applications in the Big Data era require not only techniques dedicated to dynamicity handling, but also the ability to take into account contextual information, user preferences and requirements, and real-time events to provide optimal solutions and automatic configuration for the end user. In this paper, we present a specific functionality in the design and implementation of a declarative decision support component that exploits contextual information, user preferences and requirements to automatically provide optimal configurations of smart city applications. The key property of user-centricity of our approach is achieved by enabling users to declaratively specify constraints and preferences on the solutions provided by the smart city application through the Decision Support component, and automatically map these constraints and preferences to provide optimal responses targeting user needs. We showcase the effectiveness and flexibility of our solution in two real usecase scenarios: a multimodal travel planner and a mobile parking application. All the components and algorithms described in this paper have been defined and implemented as part of the Smart City Framework CityPulse.
In der Schriftenreihe „Voneinander Lehren lernen“, die vom LearningCenter der Hochschule Osnabrück herausgegeben wird, werden anwendungsbezogene Beiträge zur Qualitätsentwicklung in Studium und Lehre publiziert.
Die Schriftenreihe ist an das hochschuldidaktische Konzept des „Scholarship of Teaching and Learning“ angelehnt. Demnach soll sie insbesondere den Fachlehrenden aller Studiengänge als Plattform dienen, um ihre eigenen Erfahrungen, Ideen und Konzepte zur Lehr- und Studiengangentwicklung systematisch zu reflektieren und entsprechende Erkenntnisse für andere nutzbar zu machen. Ziel ist es, den Diskurs über hochschuldidaktische Themen in die Fächer zu tragen und so nachhaltig zu einer hohen Qualität der Lehr-Lernprozesse in den Studiengängen beizutragen. Ergänzt werden die Texte der Fachlehrenden um Beiträge von Mitarbeiter*innen der im Bereich Studium und Lehre tätigen Organisationseinheiten.
Die Schriftenreihe ist eng an das Lehrkolleg der Hochschule Osnabrück gekoppelt. Dabei handelt es sich um ein Angebotsformat des LearningCenters, in dem Professor*innen und Lehrkräfte für besondere Aufgaben die Möglichkeit haben, unter hochschuldidaktischer Begleitung innovative Lehrentwicklungsprojekte in ihren eigenen Lehrveranstaltungen und Modulen umzusetzen. Der erste Band der Schriftenreihe enthält Beiträge von Teilnehmer*innen des Lehrkollegs 2018, in dem verschiedene Entwicklungsprojekte zur Förderung von Kompetenzen für selbstreguliertes Lernen durchgeführt wurden.
Our world and our lives are changing in many ways. Communication, networking, and computing technologies are among the most influential enablers that shape our lives today. Digital data and connected worlds of physical objects, people, and devices are rapidly changing the way we work, travel, socialize, and interact with our surroundings, and they have a profound impact on different domains,such as healthcare, environmental monitoring, urban systems, and control and management applications, among several other areas. Cities currently face an increasing demand for providing services that can have an impact on people’s everyday lives. The CityPulse framework supports smart city service creation by means of a distributed system for semantic discovery, data analytics, and interpretation of large-scale (near-)real-time Internet of Things data and social media data streams. To goal is to break away from silo
applications and enable cross-domain data integration. The CityPulse framework integrates multimodal, mixed quality, uncertain and incomplete data to create reliable, dependable information and continuously adapts data processing techniques to meet the quality of information requirements from end users. Different than existing solutions that mainly offer unified views of the data, the CityPulse framework is also equipped with powerful data analytics modules that perform intelligent data aggregation, event detection, quality
assessment, contextual filtering, and decision support. This paper presents the framework, describes ist components, and demonstrates how they interact to support easy development of custom-made applications for citizens. The benefits and the effectiveness of the framework are demonstrated in a use-case scenario
implementation presented in this paper.
Die Unterstützung des Maschinenführers auf der Landmaschine durch digitale Dienste nimmt immer stärker zu. Die Darstellungsmöglichkeiten sind jedoch auf die Größe der eingesetzten Terminals beschränkt. Um Sichteinschränkungen aus der Kabine durch zusätzliche Terminals zu vermeiden, ist der Einsatz von Augmented Reality sinnvoll. Hier lassen sich die vorhandenen Informationen statisch oder dynamisch in das Sichtfeld des Landwirts einblenden. Doch erst durch die in diesen Beitrag gezeigte Overlay Darstellungsebene mit integrierten Informationen lässt sich das Potenzial der Augmented Reality vollständig nutzen.
