Abstract: A computer-implemented method and a corresponding system for planning the behavior of a vehicle using a predefined set of rules with prioritized rules for assessing possible behaviors of the vehicle in a given situation. For this purpose, situation-specific information is aggregated, and an environmental model of the given situation is generated based on the aggregated situation-specific information. The set of rules includes a decision-making process structure, which represents the prioritization of the individual rules of the set of rules. On the basis of the environmental mode, boundary conditions for the possible behaviors of the vehicle are determined. The latter are then prioritized by applying the decision-making process structure to the respective boundary conditions.

Abstract: The teachings herein relate to dried allulose crystals having low water content. The water content of the dried allulose crystals may be at most 0.1 weight percent. Preferably, the water content is at most 0.01 weight percent and more preferably at most 0.001 weight percent. The dried allulose crystals preferably are free flowing. The dried allulose crystals preferably have reduced hygroscopicity and/or improved sensory properties.

Abstract: The teachings herein relate to a process for drying allulose crystals. The process includes a step of providing non-dried allulose crystals. The process includes temperature treating the crystals at a temperature in the range of about 25 to about 70° C. in a drying apparatus to form an intermediate product. The process includes conditioning the intermediate process. The conditioning may be for about 30 minutes to 7 hours at 40 to 70° C. The conditioning may be for about 15 to about 90 hours with air of a relative humidity of about 30 to about 60% at 25 to about 40° C.

Abstract: Non-dried allulose crystals are dried in a temperature treating step (b) in a drying apparatus at a temperature of about 25° C. to about 70° C., and in a conditioning step (c). The temperature treating step (b) may be carried out (b1) at atmospheric pressure and a residence time of about 5 minutes to about 5 hours. The temperature treating step (b) may be carried out (b2) under reduced pressure and constant temperature and a residence time from about 40 minutes to about 5 hours. The conditioning step (c) may be carried out (c1) over a period of about 30 minutes to 7 hours at a temperature from about 40° C. to about 70° C. The conditioning step (c) may be carried out (c2) over a period of about 15 minutes to about 90 hours at about 30 to about 60% relative humidity, and a temperature of about 25 to about 40° C.

Abstract: The invention relates to a crystalline allulose with a defined particle size distribution, to a process for the production thereof, as well as to the use thereof. The new allulose quality is characterized by the fact that it improves the shelf life of end products made therewith as well as their sensory and taste properties.

Abstract: Proposed are allulose concentrates in solid amorphous form, which are characterized in that they contain at least approximately 20 wt. % allulose, and a method for producing said concentrates.

Abstract: Proposed is a process for drying allulose crystals comprising or consisting of the following steps: (a) providing non-dried allulose crystals, (b) temperature treating the crystals according to step (a) at a temperature in the range of about 25 to about 70° C. in a drying apparatus, wherein the temperature treatment is carried out (b1) at atmospheric pressure and a residence time in the range of about 5 minutes to about 5 hours, or (b2) under reduced pressure and constant temperature and a residence time ranging from about 30 min to 5 hours, and (c) conditioning the intermediate product obtained in step (b1) or (b2), wherein conditioning is carried out (c1) over a period of about 30 min to 7 hours at a temperature in the range of about 40 to about 70° C., or (c2) over a period of about 15 to about 90 hours with air of a relative humidity of about 30 to about 60% and at a temperature of about 25 to about 40° C.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the synthesis of a product saccharide, preferably of D-allulose from an educt saccharide, preferably from D-fructose under heterogeneous or homogeneous catalysis which includes chemical and/or enzymatic catalysis. The synthesis is performed in at least two reactors that are arranged in series and the reaction product exiting the first reactor is subjected to chromatographic separation before it enters the second reactor. Preferably, the chromatographic separation is integrated in a simulated moving bed.
