Conception, design and development of an efficient End-to-End test automation of an automotive Measurement, Calibration and Diagnostics (MCD) system See

System Testing is an important phase to assure quality of MCD Software Solutions. It involves verification of acquiring accurate, timely, loss free measurement data from different Electronic Control Unit (ECU)s and Sensors using the software, process them and calibrate the ECUs as neede...

Investigation of flip-chip packaging for monolithic microwave integrated circuits See

In dieser Forschungsarbeit wird Flip-Chip-Montage auf die Eignung für den Frequenzbereich bis 100GHz untersucht. Zuerst erfolgt eine theoretische Diskussion über die Wellenausbreitung in planaren Wellenleitern und den Stand der Technik in der Flip-Chip-Montage. Es werden zunächst die Simulationsergebnisse ...

Software engineering in theory and practice: experiences of former students of the University of Stuttgart See

Universities have one of the goals to prepare students for their work life. But in the last years, employers, as well as the graduates, have reported a skill gap between acquired and required skills. The University of Stuttgart offers the study topic Softwaretechnik, which con...

IDE support of issue management for component-based architectures See

Context. Today software is often developed in architectures with many independent components, multiple projects, and even multiple independent teams. One of the key challenges in such an environment is managing software issues such as bugs or enhancement requests. One possible approach to&#x...

Event-driven simulator for the Palladio Component Model See

Context. Most often, developers and architects model their component-based softwares but are not aware what impact their design decision can have to the system. For this reason, the Palladio Component Model was created in order to model such softwares in advance, but at the sa...

Chemically active micromotors See

Ensemble dependency parsing across languages : methodological perspectives See

Human language is ambiguous. Such ambiguity occurs at the lexical as well as syntactic level. At the lexical level, the same word can represent different concepts and objects. At the syntactic level, one phrase or a sentence can have more than one interpretation. Language ambi...

Verbesserte Prognose lokaler Einschnürungen in mehrstufigen Blechumformprozessen See

Die korrekte Prognose lokaler Einschnürungen während der Umformung komplex geformter Blechbauteile stellt heute einen entscheidenden Erfolgsfaktor für die Erreichung von Zeit-, Kosten- und Qualitätszielen in der Methodenplanung und im Werkzeugbau dar. Seit den 1970er Jahren ist bekannt, dass die Grenz...

Embedding of ultrathin chips in highly flexible, photosensitive solder mask resist See

This work presents an embedding process for ultrathin silicon chips in mechanically flexible solder mask resist and their electrical contacting by inkjet printing. Photosensitive solder mask resist is applied by conformal spray coating onto epoxy bonded ultrathin chips with daisy chain layou...

Modelling the functional heterogeneity of skeletal muscles : enriching continuum-mechanical models on a motor-unit level See

Biomechanical computer models provide novel insights into musculoskeletal function by overcoming technical and ethical barriers faced by experimental techniques. Current macroscopic, continuum-mechanical skeletal muscle models, however, neglect certain aspects of motor-unit physiology and thus oversimplify muscle fu...

Spin-orbital entanglement and molecular orbital formation in 4d and 5d transition metal oxides See

Charakterisierung und Lokalisierung von Emissionen aus mechanisch-biologischen Abfallbehandlungsanlagen zur Entwicklung einer prozessangepassten Abluftbehandlung See

Performability analysis of Networks-on-Chips See

The rapidly increasing transistor density enables the evolution of many-core on-chip systems. Networks-on-Chips (NoCs) are the preferred communication infrastructure for such systems. Besides, NoCs have also been proposed to solve the complex on-chip communication problem in the three-dimensional systems-o...

Development of a novel Escherichia coli production platform with uncoupled stringent response See

Aerobe Kultivierungsprozesse im großskaligen Industriemaßstab werden oftmals durch gegebene technische Grenzen der Fermentationsanlagen limitiert. Die vorliegende Arbeit präsentiert die genetisch modifizierte Mutante E. coli HGT (‘high glucose throughput’) mit einer ausbalancierten Stringenten Kontrolle, welche eine erhö...

Regulation of basal and activity-mediated AMPAR endocytosis by Protein Kinase D (PKD) See

AMPARs are one of the four different types of glutamate-gated ion channels in the mammalian brain, allowing influx of Na+ and efflux of K+ and thus depolarisation of the neuronal membrane. They are critical for correct brain functioning, as they represent the main mediators of...

Arrays of individually controllable optical tweezers based on 3D-printed microlens arrays See

Optical properties of photoresists for femtosecond 3D printing: refractive index, extinction, luminescence-dose dependence, aging, heat treatment and comparison between 1-photon and 2-photon exposure See
