   abstract = {Using spatial models as a shared common basis of information about the environment for different kinds of context- aware systems has been a heavily researched topic in the last years. Thereby the research focused on how to create, to update, and to merge spatial models so as to enable highly dynamic, consistent and coherent spatial models at large scale. In this paper however, we want to concentrate on how context-aware applications could use this information so as to adapt their behavior according to the situation they are in. The main idea is to provide the spatial model infrastructure with a situation recognition component based on generic situation templates. A situation template is - as part of a much larger situation template library - an abstract, machine- readable description of a certain basic situation type, which could be used by different applications to evaluate their situation. In this paper, different theoretical and practical issues - technical, ethical and philosophical ones - are discussed important for understanding and developing situation dependent systems based on situation templates. A basic system design is presented which allows for the reasoning with uncertain data using an improved version of a learning algorithm for the automatic adaption of situation templates. Finally, for supporting the development of adaptive applications, we present a new situation-aware adaptation concept based on workflows.},

It is thus the aim of this paper to present a basic technical framework which allows for a quick and easy exploitation of context information from image data especially by non-expert users. Furthermore, the proposed framework is discussed in detail concerning important social and ethical issues which demand special requirements in system design. Finally, a first sensor prototype is presented which meets the identified requirements. Additionally, necessary implications for the software and hardware design of the system are discussed, rendering a sensor system which could be regarded as a good, acceptable and justifiable technical and thereby enabling the extraction of context information from image data.},

RFC Stuttgart, which attends RoboCup competitions every year. The common approach to stereovision leads to high deviations from the real positions when it is not possible to synchronize the cameras for tracking moving objects. Therefore we introduce an object localization in RoboCup combining the most accurate position information from each camera system. Our method for a reliable three-dimensional position estimation can be used to track a flying ball after being kicked by a robot.},

The architecture was designed regarding the needs of hardware-based multi-agent systems, especially robotic systems. This includes in particular fast and reliable transportation of messages in unstable wireless networks. Furthermore the architecture is usable for different agent-based software systems and allows communication between different systems even if they have a complete different representation of internal data. The architecture was evaluated in the RoboCup scenario with a multi-agent system of 5 robots interacting in a highly dynamic environment. Using this system, the RoboCup team of the University of Stuttgart won the RoboCup German Open Championship and World Championship in 2009.},

   abstract = {The autonomous robotics community is starting to tackle more and more complex manipulation activities, such as doing household chores, in more and more realistic operating environments such as human working and living environments. One of the biggest challenges in such applications is the open-endedness of the task domains and the enormous amount of knowledge needed to achieve reliable task success. Luckily almost every robot has access to the World Wide Web, the world's largest knowledge and information source. While up to now robots have only made limited use of the web as an information and knowledge source the opportunities are obvious and manifold. Robots can use search engines such as Google images, video, or 3D warehouse. They can also ask for the help from humans using tools such as the Amazon Mechanical Turk. Or, robots could perhaps form communities to build up huge common knowledge bases, much in the same spirit as people work on Wikipedia. Or, robots could reproduce the situations they cannot handle in web games and observe how the players deal with the situations and what the consequences might be. This workshop aims at bringing robotics researchers together that investigate the ways that robots can make good use of the Internet infrastructure. The workshop will provide a state-of-the-art overview of the field and will offer ample room for discussion to jointly identify new challenges and opportunities for future research.},

   abstract = {Recently it has been demonstrated that the domain of robust chaos close to the periodic domain, which is organized by the period-adding structure, contains an infinite number of interior crisis bifurcation curves. These curves form the so-called bandcount adding scenario, which determines the occurrence of multi-band chaotic attractors. The analytical calculation of the interior crisis bifurcations represents usually a quite sophisticated and cumbersome task. In this work we demonstrate that, using the map replacement approach, the bifurcation curves can be calculated much easier. Moreover, using this approach recursively, we confirm the hypothesis regarding the self-similarity of the bandcount adding structure.},

The results obtained by Leonov are barely known, although they allow the analytical calculation of border-collision bifurcation subspaces in an elegant and much more efficient way than it is usually done. In this work we recall Leonov's approach and explain why it works. Furthermore, we slightly improve the approach by avoiding an unnecessary coordinate transformation, and also demonstrate that the approach can be used not only for the calculation of border-collision bifurcation curves.},

   abstract = {The complex bifurcation structure in the parameter space of the general piecewise-linear scalar map with a single discontinuity - nowadays known as nested period adding structure - was completely studied analytically by N. N. Leonov already 50 years ago. He used an elegant and very efficient recursive technique, which allows the analytical calculation of the border-collision bifurcation curves, causing the nested period adding structure to occur. In this work, we have demonstrated that the application of Leonov's technique is not resticted to that particular bifurcation structure. On the contrary, the presented map replacement approach, which is an extension of Leonov's technique, allows the analytical calculation of border-collision bifurcation curves for periodic orbits with high periods and complex symbolic sequences using appropriate composite maps and the bifurcation curves for periodic orbits with much lower periods.},

Considering virtual orbits we show how a saddle-node bifurcation becomes feasible and how it is destroyed at a new codimension-2 bifurcation point, where the subcritical period doubling bifurcation becomes supercritical.
