  • Publication number: 20220405070
    Abstract: A method for managing accesses of multiple software components to software interfaces. In the method, a temporal allocation of the software components to the software interfaces is calculated statically based on requirements of the software components with respect to the software interfaces. The allocation is optimized continuously in light of an observed runtime behavior of the software components.

  • Publication number: 20220318340
    Abstract: A method for determining a value of a variable quantity. A processing unit temporally consecutively receives multiple values of the variable quantity including respective associated detection points in time. Based on at least one of the multiple values and the respective associated detection points in time, the processing unit determines pieces of calculation information, which characterize a calculation rule used for determining a value of the variable quantity at a desired point in time. The pieces of calculation information are transferred from the processing unit together with at least one of the detection points in time to another processing unit, so that the calculation rule is determined there based on the received pieces of calculation information and the received detection points in time, and thus a value of the variable quantity may be determined at a desired point in time.

  • Patent number: 11106940
    Abstract: A method and a device for improved training of a classifier. For this purpose, the device for detecting an object has a first image recording device, which is situated in a first position for recording the object from a first perspective. The device furthermore has a stored first classifier, which is configured to detect the object based on the recorded first perspective. At least one second image recording device is situated in a second position for recording the object from a second perspective, which differs from the first perspective. Furthermore, a data processing device is configured to detect the object recorded by the first image recording device based on the first classifier and to assign to the second perspective a class predetermined by the first classifier. This makes it possible to expand the existing classifier to include the detection of the object from different additional perspectives.

  • Publication number: 20210198866
    Abstract: A method for the automated control of an excavator having an excavator bucket, which is movably connected to the excavator by an arm includes, at the beginning, a semantic map having the coordinates of a ground to be changed is provided for the excavator and a material processing trajectory is provided for the excavator. The material processing trajectory is determined from the semantic map and comprises a starting point and a direction for the processing of the ground by the excavator bucket. Then the starting point is traveled to. Subsequently, a movement trajectory is calculated on the basis of the starting point by the semantic map and an excavator bucket trajectory is calculated by the semantic map. A work process is carried out in accordance with the material processing trajectory, the movement trajectory, and the excavator bucket trajectory, and in the end the semantic map is updated.

  • Publication number: 20210122620
    Abstract: A method controls a working platform having at least one distance sensor assigned to a wheel of the working platform. A time of flight of a measuring beam, which represents a beam emitted obliquely onto a track of the working platform by the distance sensor, is determined. The time of flight determined in this manner is compared with a reference time of flight in order to determine a change in the inclination angle of the working platform. A control signal for controlling the working platform is output on the basis of the inclination angle change. As a result, a change in the gradient of a track in front of each wheel is individually determined before the particular wheel travels on the track section with the inclination change.
