Facilities

Four lab and test contexts of the institute: purpose, components, responsible roles and associated projects.

The four test environments are equipment concepts. They are not existing, accredited or bookable facilities.

  1. Network test bench

    A small test set-up with six logical nodes in which delay and packet loss are controlled and synthetic messages are recorded.

    Responsible
    Alex Berger, Dr. Tobias Kern
    Projects
    Restart Behaviour of Distributed Status Messages, Data Buffering for Interrupted Energy Metering
  2. Modelling workshop

    Two workstations for reproducible model runs with version-bound parameter files and result views.

    Responsible
    Alex Berger, Dr. Clara Winter
    Projects
    Uncertainty in Municipal Maintenance Models, Coupled Heat and Electricity Scenarios, Maintenance Windows in Small Production Chains
  3. Interaction studio

    A quiet demonstration station with desktop, tablet, keyboard and alternative input devices for task protocols on prototypes.

    Responsible
    Dr. Miriam Falk, Alex Berger
    Projects
    Comprehensible Fault Handover in the Control Room, Explaining Uncertainty on Energy Overviews, Keyboard-Operable Maintenance Instructions
  4. Interface workbench

    Small virtual sender-receiver pairs with an example schema catalogue and synthetic message data for examining semantic transitions.

    Responsible
    Jonas Feldmann, Alex Berger
    Projects
    Semantic Checking between Maintenance Systems, Keyboard-Operable Maintenance Instructions
