Die Entwicklung des automobilen HMI verläuft in immer kürzer werdenden Zyklen. Nichtsdestoweniger läßt sich kaum erahnen, inwieweit sich die Zukunft automobilen HMIs darstellen wird. Im Rahmen eines Experten-Workshops wurden verschiedene zukünftige Szenarien in 5, 10 und 20 Jahren auf Basis von Cockpitskizzen bearbeitet. Als Hilfestellung dienten hierbei drei unterschiedliche Personas, basierend auf verschiedenen prototypischen Kunden.
Das Automobil wird weltweit von verschiedensten Nutzergruppen in Anspruch genommen. Die Notwendigkeit der Anpassung der Benutzerschnittstelle ergibt sich für Automobilhersteller, die weite Kundenkreise erschließen möchten. Dies zielt zum einen auf ältere Autofahrer, aber auch auf Anpassungen, die für andere Märkte nötig sind. Nicht zu vergessen ist auch der generelle Wunsch von Kunden, die Benutzerschnittstelle im Fahrzeug an die eigenen Vorlieben anzupassen. Diese Herausforderungen werden im folgenden erörtert.

It is common to have a large noise and/or a strong interference around the frequency band of a Power Line Communication (PLC) system due to the fact that the PLC channel is not designed for communication. If there are no efficient operations at the receiver to suppress this out-of-band noise and interference to some extent, the Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) will decrease and system will suffer performance loss consequently. Normally, the effort of Analog Front End (AFE) on the suppression of out-of-band interference is finite and it is uneconomic to change the AFE structure to make a performance improvement. Therefore, an appropriate structure of Digital Front End (DFE) at the receiver is necessary to reduce the impact of out-of-band noise and interference furthermore. In this paper, three different kinds of DFE structure at the receiver are introduced: classic DFE, time domain Nyquist windowing and Equivalent Complex Baseband (ECB) approach. The performance of these DFE structures is compared, not only from the aspect of out-of-band suppression, but also from the system overhead they need.
The use of Web Services in modern software development is widely accepted and provides (integrated in an according architecture) a fast, flexible and scalable way for the implementation of modern software products. On the other hand, the development of mobile applications, so called apps, becomes more and more important. While using Web Services also from mobile devices is an already accepted scheme in the development of mobile apps, there is not much work done yet for providing Web Services on mobile devices. Therefore, this paper presents a new perspective to Web Services that could be run on mobile devices and, by this, become mobile Web Services.
One of the technical building blocks of Cloud Computing infrastructures are Web Services. With respect to mobile devices their role as Web Service consumers is widely accepted and today a large number of mobile applications already consume Web Services in order to fulfill their task. Still, not much research is conducted, as yet, to allow deploying Web Services on mobile devices and thus uses these kinds of devices as Web Service providers. This paper presents an analysis of one already implemented approach for provisioning mobile Web Services with respect to energy/battery consumption. Here, after shortly presenting the implementation for the provisioning of mobile Web Services an evaluation of the battery consumption that results in using the approach is presented. Last but not least, an improvement with respect to the battery consumption is presented. The performance test shows that the improved approach provides a reasonable way to introduce Web Service provisioning for mobile devices.
The term “Cloud Computing” does not primarily specify new types of core technologies but rather addresses features to do with integration, inter-operability and accessibility. Although not new, virtualization and automation are cor features that characterize Cloud Computing. In this paper, we intend to explore the possibility of integrating cloud services with educational scenarios without re-defining neither the technology nor the usage scenarios from scratch. Our suggestion is based on certain solutions that have already been implemented and tested for specific cases.
