It describes the challenges encountered, the managerial approach taken, illustrates the implemented initiatives, and how effective they turned out. The results might be relevant to faculty staff in managerial positions at regional universities all over the world that face the challenge to internationalize their teaching and learning environment for the benefit of their domestic students.}, subject = {Internationalisierung}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{StroblKuceraFoeldietal., author = {Strobl, Marius and Kucera, Markus and Foeldi, Andrei and Balbierer, Norbert and Hilbert, Carolin and Waas, Thomas}, title = {Towards automotive virtualization}, series = {2013 International Conference on Applied Electronics (AE) : 10 - 12 Sept. 2013, Pilsen, Czech Republic}, booktitle = {2013 International Conference on Applied Electronics (AE) : 10 - 12 Sept. 2013, Pilsen, Czech Republic}, publisher = {IEEE}, address = {Piscataway, NJ}, pages = {291 -- 296}, abstract = {Virtualization has come a long way since its beginnings in the 1960s. Nowadays, Virtual Machine Monitor (VMM) - or hypervisor-based virtualization of servers is the de facto standard in data centers and a building block of the cloud hype. In recent years, virtualization has also been adopted to embedded devices such as avionics systems and mobile phones. The first mass deployment of embedded virtualization can probably be seen in video game consoles, though. However, it is still not employed by automotive electronics. This is despite the fact that with the upcoming domain controller architecture, virtualization can yield benefits beyond a mere consolidation of a multitude of Electronic Control Units (ECUs) into a few Domain Controller Units (DCUs). This paper presents merits of automotive virtualization, especially as a foundation for DCUs.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{BuettnerBohigasBoladerasGottschalketal., author = {B{\"u}ttner, Johannes and Bohigas Boladeras, Pere and Gottschalk, Philipp and Kucera, Markus and Waas, Thomas}, title = {Performance Isolation of Co-located Workload in a Container-based Architecture for Automobile}, series = {9th International Conference on Ambient Computing, Applications, Services and Technologies 2019, 22-26.09.2019, Porto, Portugal}, booktitle = {9th International Conference on Ambient Computing, Applications, Services and Technologies 2019, 22-26.09.2019, Porto, Portugal}, isbn = {978-1-61208-739-9}, pages = {31 -- 37}, abstract = {As the development in the automotive sector is facing upcoming challenges, the demand for in-vehicle computing power capacity increases and the need for flexible hardware and software structures arises, allowing dynamic managament of resources. In this new scenario, software components are to be added, removed, updated and migrated between computing units. To isolate the software components from each other and allow its orchestration, a container-based virtualization approach is being tested throughout this research. The analysis focuses on the question if this virtualization technology could be an option to ensure an interference-free operation. Four different sample applications from the automotive environment are tested for their susceptibility to resource contention. The research on the one hand shows that CPU and memory used by an application can be largely isolated with this technology, but on the other hand, it becomes apparent that support for I/O-heavy usage is currently not implemented sufficiently for container engines.}, language = {en} }
