abstract = {The growing relevance of vehicular applications like media player, navigation
system, or speedometer using graphical presentation has lead to an increasing
number of displays in modern cars. This effectuates the desire for flexible
sharing of all the available displays between several applications. However,
automotive requirements include many regulations to avoid driver distraction to
ensure safety. To allow for safe sharing of the available screen surface
between the many safety-critical and non-safety-critical applications, adequate
access control systems are required. We use the notion of $\backslash$emph{contexts} to
dynamically determine, which application is allowed to access which display
area. A context can be derived from vehicle sensors (e.g., the current speed),
or be an application-specific state (e.g., which menu item is selected). We
propose an access control model that is inherently aware of the context of the
car and the applications. It provides delegation of access rights to display
areas by applications. We implemented a proof-of-concept implementation that
demonstrates the feasibility of our concept and evaluated the latency
introduced by access control. Our results show that the delay reacting on
dynamic context changes is small enough for automotive scenarios.},

abstract = {The relevance of graphical functions in vehicular applications has increased
significantly during the last years. Modern cars are equipped with multiple
displays used by different applications such as speedometer, navigation system,
or media players. The rendered output of the applications is stored in
so-called off-screen buffers and then bitblitted to the screen buffer at the
respective window sizes and positions. To guarantee the visibility of the
potentially overlapping windows, the compositing has to match the z-order of
the windows. To this end, two common compositing strategies Tile compositing
and Full compositing are used, each having performance issues depending on how
windows overlap. Since automotive embedded platforms are restricted in power
consumption, installation space, and hardware cost, their performance is
limited which effectuates the need for highly efficient bitblitting. In order
to increase the performance in compositing the windows, we propose Hybrid
Compositing which predicts the required bitblitting time and chooses the most
efficient strategy for each pair of overlapping windows. Using various
scenarios we show that our approach is faster than the other strategies. In
addition, we propose CacheHybrid Compositing which reduces the CPU execution
time of our approach by up to 66 \%. In case of an automotive scenario we show
that our optimized approach saves up to 51 \% bitblitting time compared to
existing approaches.},

abstract = {When applying updates on distributed network elements with SDN, intra-update
states may violate desired network properties, such as drop- and loop-freeness.
Current stateless approaches cannot guarantee the constancy of arbitrary
network invariants (correctness) in general, yet update procedures guaranteeing
certain invariants do exist. In this paper, we investigate on update
consistency for the case of multicast routing and show that there is no correct
update procedure w.r.t. both drop- and duplicate-freeness. We show that certain
updates of multicast routes inherently raise a concurrency issue, which
necessarily results in the occurrence of either drops or duplicates.
Furthermore, we present a generic update procedure for multicast routing
updates that identifies concurrency-relevant update steps. This procedure
allows for the selection of an update strategy, such that either drops or
duplicates are avoided. These effects can severely degrade network performance
or quality of experience. To investigate the implications of drops and
duplicates, we evaluate their frequencies and impact for wide-area network
scenarios both, analytically and empirically, through direct measurement in the
data plane under update.},

abstract = {End users execute today on their smart phones different kinds of mobile
applications like calendar apps or high-end mobile games, differing in local
resource usage. Utilizing local resources of a smart phone heavily, like
playing high-end mobile games, drains its limited energy resource in few hours.
To prevent the limited energy resource from a quick exhaustion, smart phones
benefit from executing resource-intensive application parts on a remote server
in the cloud (code offloading). During the remote execution on the remote
server, a smart phone waits in idle mode until it receives a result. However,
code offloading introduces computation and communication overhead, which
decreases the energy efficiency and induces monetary cost. For instance,
sending or receiving execution state information to or from a remote server
consumes energy. Moreover, executing code on a remote server instance in a
commercial cloud causes monetary cost. To keep consumed energy and monetary
cost low, we present in this paper the concept of remote-side caching for code
offloading, which increases the efficiency of code offloading. The remote-side
cache serves as a collective storage of results for already executed
application parts on remote servers, avoiding the repeated execution of
previously run application parts. The smart phone queries the remote-side cache
for corresponding results of resource-intensive application parts. In case of a
cache hit, the smart phone gets immediately a result and continues the
application execution. Otherwise, it migrates the application part and waits
for a result of the remote execution. We show in our evaluation that the use of
a remote-side cache decreases energy consumption and monetary cost for mobile
applications by up to 97\% and 99\%, respectively.},

All these devices will be collecting an innumerable amount of raw observations,
for example, GPS positions or communication patterns. In order to benefit from
this enormous amount of information, machine learning algorithms are used to
derive knowledge from the gathered observations. This benefit can be increased
further, if the devices are enabled to collaborate by sharing gathered
knowledge. In a massively distributed environment, this is not an easy task, as
the knowledge on each device can be very heterogeneous and based on a different
amount of observations in diverse contexts. In this paper, we propose two
strategies to route a query for specific knowledge to a device that can answer
it with high confidence. To that end, we developed a confidence metric that
takes the number and variance of the observations of a device into account. Our
routing strategies are based on local routing tables that can either be learned
from previous queries over time or actively maintained by interchanging
knowledge models. We evaluated both routing strategies on real world and
synthetic data. Our evaluations show that the knowledge retrieved by the
presented approaches is up to 96.7 \% as accurate as the global optimum.},

abstract = {Conventional manufacturing systems like assembly lines cannot handle the
constantly changing requirements of a modern-day manufacturer, which are driven
by volatile market demands. In a bid to satisfy such requirements, modern
manufacturing systems, comprising innumerable cyber-physical systems (CPS), aim
to be reconfigurable. CPS implement production processes through an ICT
infrastructure networked with sensors and actuators embedded in the shop floor.
Reconfigurability, in context of manufacturing systems, must include the entire
system of networked components and hence requires a flexible ICT
infrastructure. Providing flexible ICT infrastructures, often, comes at the
cost of diluted quality of service (QoS) guarantees. This, however, is not an
option for manufacturing systems, most of which require strict QoS guarantees
to function correctly. To overcome this obstacle, we propose a new
software-defined environment (SDE) for reconfigurable manufacturing systems
with real-time properties in this paper. Software-defined environment is an
emerging technology that provides flexible ICT infrastructures modifiable using
software. Our contributions include an SDE-based system architecture for
dynamically configuring the underlying infrastructure for a manufacturing
system. In particular, we focus on configuring the network for the
time-sensitive communication flows essential for realising CPS. Moreover, we
propose a pair of routing algorithms to calculate routes for these flows while
configuring the network.},

abstract = {Recently, a new class of mobile applications has appeared that takes into
account the behavior of physical phenomenon. Prominent examples of such
applications include augmented reality applications visualizing physical
processes on a mobile device or mobile cyber-physical systems like autonomous
vehicles or robots. Typically, these applications need to solve partial
differential equations (PDE) to simulate the behavior of a physical system.
There are two basic strategies to numerically solve these PDEs: (1) offload all
computations to a remote server; (2) solve the PDE on the resource-constrained
mobile device. However, both strategies have severe drawbacks. Offloading will
fail if the mobile device is disconnected, and resource constraints require to
reduce the quality of the solution.
Therefore, we propose a new approach for mobile simulations using a hybrid
strategy that is robust to communication failures and can still benefit from
powerful server resources. The basic idea of this approach is to dynamically
decide on the placement of the PDE solver based on a prediction of the wireless
link availability using Markov Chains. Our tests based on measurement in real
cellular networks and real mobile devices show that this approach is able to
keep deadline constraints in more than 61 \% of the cases compared to a pure
offloading approach, while saving up to 74 \% of energy compared to a simplified
approach.},

abstract = {Realizing a communication middleware in a software-defined network can leverage
significant performance gains in terms of latency, throughput and bandwidth
efficiency. For example, filtering operations in an event-based middleware can
be performed highly efficiently in the TCAM memory of switches enabling
line-rate forwarding of events. A key challenge in a software-defined network,
however, is to ensure high responsiveness of the control plane to dynamically
changing communication interactions. In this paper, we propose a methodology
for both vertical and horizontal scaling of the distributed control plane that
is capable of improving the responsiveness by enabling concurrent network
updates in the presence of high dynamics while ensuring consistent changes to
the data plane of a communication middleware. In contrast to existing scaling
approaches that aim for a general-purpose distributed control plane, our
approach uses knowledge of the application semantics that is already available
in the design of the data plane of a communication middleware, e.g.
subscriptions and advertisements in an event-based middleware. By proposing a
methodology for an application-aware control distribution, we show, in the
context of PLEROMA, an event-based middleware, that application-awareness is
significantly beneficial in avoiding the synchronization bottlenecks for
ensuring consistency in the presence of concurrent network updates and thus
greatly improves the responsiveness of the control plane.},

abstract = {Abstract{\^a}€”Although location-based applications have seen fast growth in the
last decade due to pervasive adoption of GPS enabled mobile devices, their use
raises privacy concerns. To mitigate these concerns, a number of approaches
have been proposed in literature, many of which rely on a trusted party to
regulate user privacy. However, trusted parties are known to be prone to data
breaches [1]. Consequently, a novel solution, called Position Sharing, was
proposed in [2] to secure location privacy in fully non-trusted systems. In
Position Sharing, obfuscated position shares of the actual user location are
distributed among several location servers, each from a different provider,
such that there is no single point of failure if the servers get breached.
While Position Sharing can exhibit useful properties such as graceful
degradation of privacy, it incurs significant communication overhead as
position shares are sent to several location servers instead of one.
To this end, we propose a set of location update protocols to minimize the
communication overhead of Position Sharing while maintaining the privacy
guarantees that it originally provided. As we consider the scenario of frequent
location updates, i.e., movement trajectories, our protocols additionally add
protection against an attack based on spatio-temporal correlation in published
locations. By evaluating on a set of real-world GPS traces, we show that our
protocols can reduce the communication overhead by 75\% while significantly
improving the security guarantees of the original Position Sharing algorithm.},

abstract = {Today, workflows are widely used to model business processes. A recent trend is
to use them to model applications in heterogeneous, large-scale distributed
systems. In such systems, many, possibly mobile, providers offer independent
and interchangeable services that can be used to satisfy the different
activities of a workflow. Due to varying server loads, failures, and changing
network characteristics, the response time of these services is highly
volatile. Thus, it is hard to ensure the timely and reliable execution of
workflows depending on such services. A common approach is to invoke several
services in parallel to increase the probability of success. This, however, can
easily lead to overprovisioning and high cost when needlessly invoked services
have to be compensated. In this paper, we investigate the search space between
parallel and sequential invocation of services. We propose to invoke
independent services staggered over time to ensure timely workflow execution at
minimal cost. Evaluations show that our approach reduces the execution cost by
up to 85 \% while it guarantees to fulfill activity deadlines with 99.9 \%

sources and the increasing volume at which data is produced, parallelization of
event detection is crucial to limit the time events need to be buffered before

partitioning model for data streams that is capable of achieving a high degree
of parallelism in detecting event patterns which formerly could only be
consistently detected in a sequential manner or at a low parallelization
degree. Moreover, we propose methods to dynamically adapt the parallelization
degree to limit the buffering imposed on event detection in the presence of
dynamic changes to the workload. Extensive evaluations of the system behavior
show that the proposed partitioning model allows for a high degree of
parallelism and that the proposed adaptation methods are able to meet a
