Abstract: A method for controlling applications distributed between a vehicle and a cloud. A supervision of communication channels between the vehicle and the cloud is carried out. Based on the supervision, a control and adaptation of a component of the applications operated in the vehicle or of a component of the applications operated in the cloud are carried out.

Abstract: A method for transferring a teleoperable vehicle from an initial operating mode to a target operating mode. In the method, upon request, a handover of the driving responsibility to an intended operator is planned and prepared. Areas of the driving responsibility and operating limits of the vehicle in the target operating mode are negotiated. The negotiated operating limits are set. The handover is initiated and brought to a successful conclusion in the target operating mode.

Abstract: A system for teleoperated driving. The system includes a vehicle, a backend, remote control devices. The vehicle, the backend, and the remote control devices are configured to communicate via a mobile communications network.

Abstract: A method for the teleoperated driving of a vehicle. In the method, a prediction is made with respect to a future quality of service of a mobile communications link of the vehicle to a vehicle control center. Pieces of knowledge are acquired relating to surroundings of the vehicle. Adaptations relating to the teleoperated driving are carried out based on the pieces of knowledge and on the prediction.

Abstract: A method for teleoperating a vehicle. The method includes the following features: available operators are registered; data regarding the vehicle are received; operators who are selected from the available operators based on the data are communicated to the vehicle; a preferred operator among the selected operators is noted; communication resources are reserved; and the preferred operator is prompted to connect to a communication unit of the vehicle and to take over a control function of the vehicle with the aid of the communication unit.

Abstract: An industrial control system (ICS) frontend system has a visualization component that concurrently visualizes a functional ICS view (FICSV) and further functional view (FFV). The FICSV represents ICS data associated with the ICS. The FFV is either a further FICSV representing ICS data or is a functional GIS view representing GIS data associated with a geographic information system. The functional views can respond to an associating event. The system further has a data input component configured to receive user input data, the input data indicating a directed associating operation (DAO) between the FICSV and FFV. A system processor component launches the associating event in response to received input data if the DAO is allowed. If the DAO is from an FFV object to the FICSV, the FICSV function is performed using FFV object properties; if from an FICSV ICS object to the FFV, the FFV function uses ICS object properties.

Abstract: Exemplary systems and methods for monitoring a current state of a spatially extensive supply network having at least one control station that monitors and controls the supply network and a plurality of sensors that transmit measurement values relating to operating behavior to the at least one control station. Current measurement values are measured at positions on the supply network corresponding to each sensor. Each sensor analyzes measured signal variations and signal trends of the measured current values via an evaluating unit. The measurement values of each respective sensor are transmitted to the at least one control station in data packets at a defined time.

Abstract: A system and method are provided for optimized decision-making in water supply networks and/or water supply operations. The system includes at least one central data processing device and a control system having at least one integration device. The system also includes at least one functional unit for identifying and/or processing status information affecting the respective network or operation.

Abstract: An exemplary arrangement for determining set point values for controllable elements in a network that includes a management system for driving elements of the network and a plurality of processing units. The arrangement also includes at least one simulation unit with a simulation environment for generating a hydraulic simulation model of the network, and an optimization unit with an optimization environment for converting and simplifying the hydraulic simulation model. The optimization environment receives exported data from the simulation environment, generates a simplified optimization model from the exported data through an algorithm that is implemented through program code executed by a processor, and uses the optimization model and at least one of received additional data and measurement and field data to calculate optimized flow charts as temporally changeable set point value series for driving elements in the network and providing the driven elements to the management system.

Abstract: By detecting the pressure time characteristic on the high-pressure side of an injection pump, the delivery volume of the pump is able to be determined without intervention in the injection system.
