Acoustic Sensor Networks

One of the properties and main challenges of a WSN is its resource limitation. Unlike low-data rate applications, data acquisition for high resolution applications obviously have high requirements (e.g., processing power, transmission rate).

One such high-resolution is distributed collection and processing of acoustic signals: such acoustic sensor networks (ASN) are the focus of this DFG Forschergruppe (DFG Research Group). Specifically, we look into virtualization of the ASN for real-time acoustic applications. It considers resource-aware programming to guarantee high quality without exhausting network resources.

NICCI

Network Informed Control-Control Informed Network

This DFG Sponsored project aims to develop theoretical basis for the paradigm change from throughput to real time oriented Communication for Network Control System in order to meet Cyber- Physical Systems application requirements.The project is looking for integration of all communication ,control and system components tightly (horizontal and vertical) to explicitly exploit their individual elasticity and potential.

SFB 901: "On-The-Fly Computing"

This is a research project funded by the DFG collaborative research center SFB 901 "On-The-Fly-Computing". The research center investigates individually and automatically configured IT services which are composed from and executed on a marked of world wide traded combinalbe services and execution platforms. Within this research center our research group investigates the the communication network as one important ingredient for such market platform. Our research covers the realization and optimization of overlays over real networks. More details can be found on the project's own webpage.
