Tutor: Stephan Wagner In the past, Bluetooth LE has been used as basis for the development of several indoor localization systems. Typically, these systems consist of low-power transmitters (i.e. beacons) that are deployed at known positions in the indoor environment and mobile receivers (e.g. smart phones). By receiving the signals […]
Every year the University Duisburg-Essen awards the best graduates by a prize. This year our graduate Mike van Afferden was awarded for the best master thesis “An Efficient Transfer System for Vector-based Map Data”. Find more information here.
We are happy to welcome Prof. Rasit Eskicioglu from University Manitoba, Canada visiting NES from May 15th to December 31st 2018. Prof. Eskicioglu will hold two lectures during his stay. “Operating Systems Design and Implementation for IoT Devices”, a course for master students in the summer term 2018, which will provide […]
Tutor: Prof. Dr. Pedro José Marrón, Contact: Eduardo Ferrera Nowadays, mobile robots are used in many applications, such as rescue missions, surveillance or people assistance. In these applications, robots usually need to operate in unknown environments, so they need to obtain information with their sensors and take intelligent decisions. In […]
Tutor: Dr. Matteo Ceriotti The Internet of Things and Cyber-Physical System technologies are enabling the embedding of processing, communication and sensing capabilities in everyday environment. This project group targets the use of such technology to prototype an environment able to understand the events happening in it After a series of […]

Inhalte im Einzelnen: Einführung und grundlegende Struktur von Programmen Lexikalische Elemente, Datentypen und Variablen, Ausdrücke und Anweisungen Objektorientierte Programmierung: Klassen, Methoden, Vererbung, Interfaces, Abstrakte Klassen, […]
Lecturer: Prof. Dr. Pedro José Marrón, Exercises: Songwei Fu This lecture describes the fundamental concepts of sensor networks and how they differ from traditional networked systems that do not take energy and resource constraints into account. During the experiments, the students will deal with real-world deployments of sensor networks and […]
Lecturer and exercises: Prof. Rasit Eskicioglu (University Manitoba, Canada) This is an advanced on operating systems design and implementation. It will provide an in-depth discussion of today’s operating systems for resource constrained hardware as they are used in the context of the Internet of Things (IoT). The first part of the […]
Tutor: Dr. Matteo Ceriotti Computing and communicating devices become smaller and smaller; they moved from desks to everybody’s pocket; ultimately, they become embedded in the environment that surrounds our everyday life. This vision has been addressed under different names, Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) being one of them. As this happens, we become capable of […]
