  • Abstract

    Nowadays everyone wants their app at least on two platforms: iOS and Android. But what if you could target even more platforms, desktop platforms like windows and macOS, the web, wearables and all that with native performance and a mature eco system and community? You will also hear about the toolchain, how to get started as a developer and some practical tips and tricks. All questions are welcome! Join us on Wednesday, March 23rd at 17:15 to learn more.

  • Abstract

    While in the recent past, big-bang release projects were driven by just a handful of specialists, today's dynamically changing environments and growing technical complexity put the business outcome of working in this concept at risk.
     
    It is more and more understood in many IT engagements, that in today's way of working, team and collaboration overshadow individual expertise, while at the same time subject matter expertise is necessary to handle the highest level of complexity in functional or non-functional parts of product development. Two highly interconnected approaches to handle this new kind of complexity are Agile and DevOps with an evenly large number of concepts and misconceptions covered.
     
    In this presentation, we're establishing an understanding about the challenges and viable best practices on how to enable lean product flow, continual feedback, learning and experimentation supported by technical measures like CI/CD or microservice architectures.
     
    Join us in this journey towards understanding the systemic influencing factors making a difference in high performance product development.

  • Abstract

    Ensuring security can seem like an impossible challenge when developing an hardware product.

    When the attacker has physical access to the device of a potential victim, the number of potential attack vectors multiplies, as processors can inadvertently leak secret information through their power intake, or data in the memory can be intentionally corrupted by the injection of electromagnetic faults.

    This talk will highlight some of the many hardware attacks a manufacturer can expect to be perpetrated against their products, and give a live demonstration of two inexpensive side-channel and fault injection tools, as well as discuss some of the techniques that can be used to prevent these attacks.

    In our laboratory funded thanks to the EXIST Forschungstransfer SAIFER project at the OTH Regensburg, we perform automated penetration testing to manufacturers locate and fix vulnerabilities in their hardware.

  • Abstract

    In 2015, the United Nations General Assembly launched the sustainable development goals (SDGs), which was a universal call to action to protect the planet and ensure a better and more sustainable future. The concept of sustainable economic development is based on the fundamental understanding that the economy is not separate from the environment in which we live. While definitions of sustainable economic development are abundant, it can be defined as economic development without damaging environmental quality, more generally the quality of life. The issue is not whether we develop, but how we develop. Technology plays a critical role for sustainable economic development; for example, carbon intelligent computing enables load shifting of energy production and usage in time and space, thereby not only lowering carbon emissions, but also yielding high economic returns. This presentation will have two parts: the first one is a part of my research on the relationship between smartphones and CO2 emissions and the second part is a demonstration of the use of GIS for mapping SDG data, such as poverty and child labor, to understand patterns and relationships in the geographic context. The research on smartphones and CO2 emissions applies the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) model and verifies the relationship between smartphones and CO2 emissions is not linear and takes an inverted U-shaped curve. Such a relationship is also evident for ICT penetration. A geographic information system (GIS) is an information system that creates, manages, analyzes, and maps all types of data. The second part of the talk will demonstrate the use of ArcGIS Online (a cloud-based GIS platform) for connecting SDG data to a map, integrating location data with other data, such as poverty (SDG #1: No Poverty) and child labor (SDG #8: Decent Work and Economic Growth).

  • Abstract

    Based on more than 6 years of teaching Java at the University of Bamberg and correcting countless Java assignments, we - Jörg Lenhard, Linus Dietz and Simon Harrer - have written a book that shows and explains the typical errors in an innovative before/after presentation: Java by Comparison [1]. Through these comparisons, beginners can more quickly develop an intuition for "clean code", professionals it helps to better explain their ways of thinking to beginners and perhaps refresh one or the other. We will first introduce the history of the book and then specifically address a few of the comparisons from the book. After that, we want to be creative together and play a game we developed called "Comparison Jeopardy" [2].

    We look forward to seeing you!

    Dr. Simon Harrer is a curious tech lead at INNOQ who loves to work together and share his knowledge. As a serial co-author, Simon is known for only publishing articles, books, or websites together with others, except for his PhD thesis he had to suffer through alone. In his last project, he discovered his favorite way of working, remote mob programming, for which he obviously co-authored a website and short book, using remote mob programming in doing so. Nowadays, apart from his typical consulting projects, he coaches remote teams to become better by not only working together but also growing together.

    Linus Dietz is a researcher and doctoral student at the Technical University of Munich. His research focus is on destination recommender systems and all aspects around it: data engineering, mobility analysis, algorithms, user interfaces, and human factors. Being passionate about high quality code, he co-authored “Java by Comparison” based on his experiences in teaching programming at the university.
