Abstract: To control movement of a transport unit of a linear motor, a quality functional J(SG) with quality terms JTk(SG) is used as a function of manipulated variables (SG) of active drive coils. The quality functional J(SG) controlling movement of the transport unit along the stator is optimized with regard to the manipulated variable (SG) to determine optimal manipulated variables (SGopt) for the relevant time step of the control of movement, active drive coils are energized according to the determined optimal manipulated variables (SGopt), and at least two movement phases are provided during the movement of the transport unit along the stator. In the at least two movement phases, different quality functionals J(SG) are used for determining the optimal manipulated variables (SGopt), the different quality functionals J(SG) differing by the number k of the quality terms JTk(SG) used and/or by the quality terms JTk(SG) and/or by the weighting Factors kk.

Abstract: The invention relates to administration systems and to methods which can improve the safety of administration systems, more particularly the safety of an infusion system, in which system it is checked, when the medication container is exchanged, whether the new container is appropriate for the system. A system of this type consists of an administration device (1), a mobile communication device (3) and servers (5). When a reservoir (2) or the administration device (1) is replaced, an image of information (2a) is captured by means of a camera (3a) of the communication device (3). As a result of evaluation of the information (2a) by means of a software application, functions of the administration device (1) are activated or not.

Abstract: A method for operating a data communication between functional units for a vehicle, in which a predefined number of data packets transmitted by a sending unit to a receiving unit is collected in a data buffer of the sending unit to generate a data block. In each predefined time step, one data packet is transmitted, in which the data packets are collected over a predefined collection period. A signature for authenticating the data block is then determined, the signature being determined over a predefined determination period lasting for multiple time steps. The signature is then sent in multiple parts from the sending unit to the receiving unit over a predefined transmission period, with one part of the signature being sent per time step. The sum of the collection period, the determination period and the transmission period is less than a predefined system fault tolerance time.

Abstract: A vehicle brake system device is provided. The vehicle brake system device includes having a signal input apparatus for inputting request signals from a driver of the vehicle which includes a sensor device which gradually detects a degree of operation of a driver-operated operating element between a position which represents non-operation and a position which represents maximum operation, and generates an operating signal which represents this degree of operation. The signal input apparatus also includes an evaluation electronics system into which the sensor device operating signal is introduced for evaluation purposes.
