The goal of this one-day workshop was to bring together researchers and practitioners from academic environments and from the industry to share their solutions, ideas, visions, and doubts in self-aware computing systems in general and in the evaluation and measurements of such systems in particular. The workshop aimed to enable discussions, partnerships, and collaborations among the participants. This special issue follows the theme of the workshop. It contains extended versions of workshop presentations as well as additional contributions.

The first part gives a detailed state of the art and a discussion of the problems to be solved in order to teleoperate mobile robots via the Internet. The focus of the application to be realized is set on a distributed tele-laboratory with remote experiments on mobile robots which can be accessed world-wide via the Internet. Therefore, analyses of the communication link are used in order to realize a robust system. The developed and implemented architecture of this distributed tele-laboratory allows for a smooth access also with a variable or low link quality. The second part covers the application of ad-hoc networks for mobile robots. The networking of mobile robots via mobile ad-hoc networks is a very promising approach to realize integrated telematic systems without relying on preexisting communication infrastructure. Relevant civilian application scenarios are for example in the area of search and rescue operations where first responders are supported by multi-robot systems. Here, mobile robots, humans, and also existing stationary sensors can be connected very fast and efficient. Therefore, this work investigates and analyses the performance of different ad-hoc routing protocols for IEEE 802.11 based wireless networks in relevant scenarios. The analysis of the different protocols allows for an optimization of the parameter settings in order to use these ad-hoc routing protocols for mobile robot teleoperation. Also guidelines for the realization of such telematics systems are given. Also traffic shaping mechanisms of application layer are presented which allow for a more efficient use of the communication link. An additional application scenario, the integration of a small size helicopter into an IP based ad-hoc network, is presented. The teleoperation of mobile robots via 3G telecommunication technologies is addressed in the third part of this work. The high availability, high mobility, and the high bandwidth provide a very interesting opportunity to realize scenarios for the teleoperation of mobile robots or industrial remote maintenance. This work analyses important parameters of the UMTS communication link and investigates also the characteristics for different data streams. These analyses are used to give guidelines which are necessary for the realization of or industrial remote maintenance or mobile robot teleoperation scenarios. All the results and guidelines for the design of telematic systems in this work were derived from analyses and experiments with real hardware. N2 - Diese Arbeit gliedert sich in drei Hauptteile: Fernsteuerung mobiler Systeme über das Internet, ad-hoc Netzwerke mobiler Roboter und Fernsteuerung mobiler Roboter über Mobilfunktechnologien der 3. Generation. Im ersten Teil werden ein ausführlicher Stand der Technik und eine Diskussion der bei der Fernsteuerung mobiler Roboter über das Internet zu lösenden Probleme gegeben. Der Fokus der zu realisierenden Anwendung in diesem Teil der Arbeit liegt auf einem verteilten Tele-Labor mit Experimenten zu mobilen Robotern, welche über das Internet weltweit zugänglich sind. Hierzu werden Link-Analysen der zugrundeliegenden Kommunikationsinfrastruktur zu Hilfe genommen, um ein robustes System zu realisieren. Die entwickelte und implementierte Architektur des verteilten Tele-Labors erlaubt einen reibungslosen Zugang auch für Verbindungen mit variabler oder schlechter Linkqualität. Im zweiten Teil werden ad-hoc Netzwerke mobiler Roboter behandelt. Die Vernetzung mobiler Roboter über mobile ad-hoc Netzwerke ist eine vielversprechende Möglichkeit um integrierte Telematiksysteme zu realisieren ohne auf zuvor existierende Infrastruktur angewiesen zu sein. Relevante Einsatzszenarien im zivilen Bereich sind zum Beispiel Such- und Rettungsszenarien, in denen die Rettungskräfte vor Ort durch vernetzte Multi-Roboter Systeme unterstütz werden. Hier werden dann mobile Roboter, Menschen und gegebenenfalls auch vorhandene stationäre Sensoren schnell und effizient vernetzt. In dieser Arbeit werden dazu verschieden ad-hoc Routing-Protokolle für IEEE 802.11 basierte Drahtlosnetzwerke in relevanten Szenarien untersucht und deren Leistungsfähigkeit verglichen. Die Analyse der verschiedenen Protokolle erlaubt eine Optimierung der Parametereinstellung, um diese ad-hoc Routing-Protokolle zur Fernsteuerung mobiler Roboter nutzbar zu machen. Weiterhin werden Richtlinien zur Realisierung solcher Telematiksysteme erarbeitet und Mechanismen zur Verkehrsformung auf Applikationsebene präsentiert, die eine effizientere Nutzung der vorhandenen Kommunikationskanäle erlauben. Als weiteres Anwendungsbeispiel ist die Integration eines ferngesteuerten Kleinhubschraubers in ein IP basiertes ad-hoc Netz beschrieben. Der dritte Teil der Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit der Fernsteuerung mobiler Roboter über Mobilfunktechnologien der 3. Generation. Die hohe Verfügbarkeit der UMTS-Technologie mit der verbundenen Mobilität und der gleichzeitigen hohen Bandbreite bietet hier eine interessante Möglichkeit um die Fernsteuerung mobiler Roboter oder auch interaktive Fernwartungsszenarien zu realisieren. In der vorliegenden Arbeit werden wichtige Parameter der UMTS Verbindung analysiert und auch die Charakteristiken der Verbindung für verschiedene Verkehrsströme ermittelt. Diese dienen dann zur Erstellung von Richtlinien, die zur Umsetzung der interaktive Fernwartungsszenarien oder auch der Fernsteuerung mobiler Roboter nötig sind. Die in dieser Arbeit erstellten Richtlinien zum Entwurf von Telematiksystemen wurden aus Analysen und Experimenten mit realer Hardware abgeleitet.

Extending such a protocol to chlorophytan green algae, though, is fraught with problems including non homology (matK) and heterogeneity that prevents the creation of a universal PCR toolkit (rbcL). Some have advocated the use of the nuclear-encoded, internal transcribed spacer two (ITS2) as an alternative to the traditional chloroplast markers. However, the ITS2 is broadly perceived to be insufficiently conserved or to be confounded by introgression or biparental inheritance patterns, precluding its broad use in phylogenetic reconstruction or as a DNA barcode. A growing body of evidence has shown that simultaneous analysis of nucleotide data with secondary structure information can overcome at least some of the limitations of ITS2. The goal of this investigation was to assess the feasibility of an automated, sequence-structure approach for analysis of IT2 data from a large sampling of phylum Chlorophyta. Methodology/Principal Findings: Sequences and secondary structures from 591 chlorophycean, 741 trebouxiophycean and 938 ulvophycean algae, all obtained from the ITS2 Database, were aligned using a sequence structure-specific scoring matrix. Phylogenetic relationships were reconstructed by Profile Neighbor-Joining coupled with a sequence structure-specific, general time reversible substitution model. Results from analyses of the ITS2 data were robust at multiple nodes and showed considerable congruence with results from published phylogenetic analyses. Conclusions/Significance: Our observations on the power of automated, sequence-structure analyses of ITS2 to reconstruct phylum-level phylogenies of the green algae validate this approach to assessing diversity for large sets of chlorophytan taxa. Moreover, our results indicate that objections to the use of ITS2 for DNA barcoding should be weighed against the utility of an automated, data analysis approach with demonstrated power to reconstruct evolutionary patterns for highly divergent lineages.

These recordings can help clinicians understand how the users' condition changes, but appropriate learning and visualization mechanisms are required for this purpose. We propose a web-based visual analytics tool, which processes clinical data as well as EMAs that were recorded through a mHealth application. The goals we pursue are (1) to predict the condition of the user in the near and the far future, while also identifying the clinical data that mostly contribute to EMA predictions, (2) to identify users with outlier EMA, and (3) to show to what extent the EMAs of a user are in line with or diverge from those users similar to him/her. We report our findings based on a pilot study on patient empowerment, involving tinnitus patients who recorded EMAs with the mHealth app TinnitusTips. To validate our method, we also derived synthetic data from the same pilot study. Based on this setting, results for different use cases are reported.

These simulations are comprised of two major computational components: (1) agent-based developmental models that retrace organismal growth and unfolding of technical scaffoldings and (2) interfaces to explore these models interactively. Simulations of biohybrid systems allow us to fast forward and experience their evolution over time based on our design decisions involving the choice, configuration and initial states of the deployed biological and robotic actors as well as their interplay with the environment. We briefly introduce the concept of swarm grammars, an agent-based extension of L-systems for retracing growth processes and structural artifacts. Next, we review an early augmented reality prototype for designing and projecting biohybrid system simulations into real space. In addition to models that retrace plant behaviors, we specify swarm grammar agents to braid structures in a self-organizing manner. Based on this model, both robotic and plant-driven braiding processes can be experienced and explored in virtual worlds. We present an according user interface for use in virtual reality. As we present interactive models concerning rather diverse description levels, we only ensured their principal capacity for interaction but did not consider efficiency analyzes beyond prototypic operation. We conclude this article with an outlook on future works on melding reality and virtuality to drive the design and deployment of biohybrid systems.

We motivate these efforts by considering the opportunities technology provides to pursue game designs based on according game design frameworks. We present three different use cases of the proposed model that emphasize its potential to (1) self-assemble into predefined 3D graphical assets, (2) define new structures in the context of virtual environments by self-assembling layers on the surfaces of arbitrary 3D objects, and (3) allow novel structures to self-assemble only considering the model’s configuration and no external dependencies. To address the performance restrictions in computer games, we realized the prototypical model implementation by means of an efficient entity component system (ECS). We conclude the paper with an outlook on future steps to further explore novel interactive, dynamic PCG mechanics and to ensure their efficiency.

The results of the first study show that people can easily and confidently relate their experiences with technology to the definitions of force-dynamic events (e.g. “The driver released the handbrake” as an example of restraint removal). The results of the second study show moderate agreement between four expert coders across all ten force-dynamic categories (Cohen’s kappa = .59) when re-classifying these episodes. Agreement values for single force-dynamic categories ranged between ‘fair’ and ‘almost perfect’, i.e. between kappa = .30 and .95. Agreement with the originally intended classifications of study 1 was higher than the pure inter-coder reliabilities. Single coders achieved an average kappa of .71, indicating substantial agreement. Using more than one coder increased kappas to almost perfect: up to .87 for four coders. A qualitative analysis of the predicted versus the observed number of category confusions revealed that about half of the category disagreement could be predicted from strong overlaps in the definitions of force-dynamic categories. From the quantitative and qualitative results, guidelines are derived to aid the better training of coders in order to increase inter-coder reliability.

However, in virtual reality (VR), there are few systematically and empirically derived databases. This paper proposes the first collection of virtual objects based on empirical evaluation for inter-and transcultural encounters between English- and German-speaking learners. We used explicit and implicit measurement methods to identify cultural associations and the degree of stereotypical perception for each virtual stimuli (n = 293) through two online studies, including native German and English-speaking participants. The analysis resulted in a final well-describable database of 128 objects (called InteractionSuitcase). In future applications, the objects can be used as a great interaction or conversation asset and behavioral measurement tool in social VR applications, especially in the field of foreign language education. For example, encounters can use the objects to describe their culture, or teachers can intuitively assess stereotyped attitudes of the encounters.

As a result, software libraries from possibly different programming languages have to work together. Even more complex the case is if different programming paradigms have to be combined. This type of diversification of programming languages and paradigms in just one software application can only be mastered by mechanisms for a seamless integration of the involved programming languages. However, the integration of the common logic programming language Prolog and the popular object-oriented programming language Java is complicated by various interoperability problems which stem on the one hand from the paradigmatic gap between the programming languages, and on the other hand, from the diversity of the available Prolog systems. The subject of the thesis is the investigation of novel mechanisms for the integration of logic programming in Prolog and object–oriented programming in Java. We are particularly interested in an object–oriented, uniform approach which is not specific to just one Prolog system. Therefore, we have first identified several important criteria for the seamless integration of Prolog and Java from the object–oriented perspective. The main contribution of the thesis is a novel integration framework called the Connector Architecture for Prolog and Java (CAPJa). The framework is completely implemented in Java and imposes no modifications to the Java Virtual Machine or Prolog. CAPJa provides a semi–automated mechanism for the integration of Prolog predicates into Java. For compact, readable, and object–oriented queries to Prolog, CAPJa exploits lambda expressions with conditional and relational operators in Java. The communication between Java and Prolog is based on a fully automated mapping of Java objects to Prolog terms, and vice versa. In Java, an extensible system of gateways provides connectivity with various Prolog system and, moreover, makes any connected Prolog system easily interchangeable, without major adaption in Java. N2 - Moderne Software ist oft modular zusammengesetzt aus Subsystemen zur Wissensverwaltung, Visualisierung, Verfikation oder Benutzerinteraktion. Dabei müssen Programmbibliotheken aus möglicherweise verschiedenen Programmiersprachen miteinander zusammenarbeiten. Noch komplizierter ist der Fall, wenn auch noch verschiedene Programmierparadigmen miteinander kombiniert werden. Diese Art der Diversifikation an Programmiersprachen und –paradigmen in nur einer Software kann nur von nahtlosen Integrationsmechansimen für die beteiligten Programmiersprachen gemeistert werden. Gerade die Einbindung der gängigen Logikprogrammiersprache Prolog und der populären objektorientierten Programmiersprache Java wird durch zahlreiche Kompatibilitätsprobleme erschwert, welche auf der einen Seite von paradigmatischen Unterschieden der beiden Programmiersprachen herrühren und auf der anderen Seite von der Vielfalt der erhältlichen Prologimplementierungen. Gegenstand dieser Arbeit ist die Untersuchung von neuartigen Mechanismen für die Zusammenführung von Logikprogrammierung in Prolog und objektorienter Programmierung in Java. Besonders interessiert uns dabei ein objektorientierter, einheitlicher Ansatz, der nicht auf eine konkrete Prologimplementierung festgelegt ist. Aus diesem Grund haben wir zunächst wichtige Kriterien für die nahtlose Integration von Prolog und Java aus der objetorientierten Sicht identifziert. Der Hauptbeitrag dieser Arbeit ist ein neuartiges Integrationssystems, welches Connector Architecture for Prolog and Java (CAPJa) heißt. Das System ist komplett in Java implementiert und benötigt keine Anpassungen der Java Virtual Machine oder Prolog. CAPJa stellt einen halbautomatischen Mechanismus zur Vernetzung von Prolog Prädikaten mit Java zur Verfügung. Für kompakte, lesbare und objektorientierte Anfragen an Prolog nutzt CAPJa Lambdaausdrücke mit logischen und relationalen Operatoren in Java. Die Kommunikation zwischen Java und Prolog basiert auf einer automatisierten Abbildung von Java Objekten auf Prolog Terme, und umgekehrt. In Java bietet ein erweiterbares System von Schnittstellen Konnektivität zu einer Vielzahl an Prologimplmentierung und macht darüber hinaus jede verbundene Prologimplementierung einfach austauschbar, und zwar ohne größere Anpassung in Java.

Therefore, utilizing new technologies in the learning context and exploring their combined potential are considered essential to support self-directed learning in a digital age. A learning environment can be expanded by various technical and content-related aspects. Gamification in the form of elements from video games offers a potential concept to support the learning process. This can be supplemented by technology-supported learning. While the use of tablets is already widespread in the learning context, the integration of a social robot can provide new perspectives on the learning process. However, simply adding new technologies such as social robots or gamification to existing systems may not automatically result in a better learning environment. In the present study, game elements as well as a social robot were integrated separately and conjointly into a learning environment for basic Spanish skills, with a follow-up on retained knowledge. This allowed us to investigate the respective and combined effects of both expansions on motivation, engagement and learning effect. This approach should provide insights into the integration of both additions in an adult learning context. We found that the additions of game elements and the robot did not significantly improve learning, engagement or motivation. Based on these results and a literature review, we outline relevant factors for meaningful integration of gamification and social robots in learning environments in adult learning.

In an indoor environment, Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) establishes a two-dimensional map and provides positioning data. However, LIDAR can only provide relative positioning data and it cannot directly provide the latitude and longitude of the current position. As a consequence, GNSS/Inertial Navigation System (INS) integrated navigation could be employed in outdoors, while the indoors part makes use of INS/LIDAR integrated navigation and the corresponding switching navigation will make the indoor and outdoor positioning consistent. In addition, when the vehicle enters the garage, the GNSS signal will be blurred for a while and then disappeared. Ambiguous GNSS satellite signals will lead to the continuous distortion or overall drift of the positioning trajectory in the indoor condition. Therefore, an INS/LIDAR seamless integrated navigation algorithm and a switching algorithm based on vehicle navigation system are designed. According to the experimental data, the positioning accuracy of the INS/LIDAR navigation algorithm in the simulated environmental experiment is 50% higher than that of the Dead Reckoning (DR) algorithm. Besides, the switching algorithm developed based on the INS/LIDAR integrated navigation algorithm can achieve 80% success rate in navigation mode switching.

Each rule specifies a nonverbal behavior category: posture, head movement, facial expression and gaze direction as well as three parameters: type, frequency and proportion. In a first user-study, we asked participants to pretend to be a speaker in VR and then create sets of nonverbal behaviour parameters to simulate different attitudes. Participants manipulated the nonverbal behaviours of single virtual spectator to match a specific levels of engagement and opinion toward them. In a second user-study, we used these parameters to design different types of virtual audiences with our nonverbal behavior rules and evaluated their perceptions. Our results demonstrate our system’s ability to create virtual audiences with three types of different perceived attitudes: indifferent, critical, enthusiastic. The analysis of the results also lead to a set of recommendations and guidelines regarding attitudes and expressions for future design of audiences for VR therapy and training applications.
