Large scale disasters represent a major challenge for any medical service. Typically such disasters, be they founded in terrorism, natural or technical catastrophize, generate a significant number of casualties (MASCAL – Mass Casualty) with severe and unusual injury patterns. Many processes are supported by Standard Operating Procedures as common practice, but any catastrophe requires a change of processes due to the nature of the disaster and thus furnishes a major challenge for hospital operations. As of now, hospitals and medical services are designed for a specific workload that has been agreed among different stakeholders. Hence, processes and their resources are designed in light of best practices for patient care as well as anticipated workload.

Supervised by Prof. Dr. Thomas Rose; Advisor(s):
Thomas Osterland
A business model is an abstract model of the business of one or more cooperating organisations. It is a conceptual and architectural implementation of a business strategy and the foundation for the implementation of business processes and information systems.
The research objective of this thesis is the design, implementation and evaluation of an interactive tool for the engineering of a business model.

Standard compliant WebXR Rendering of Mixed Reality Learning Experiences
Posted on 03. Jun 2020;
Supervised by PD Dr. Ralf Klamma, AOR, Prof. Fridolin Wild (Open University of the UK)
The goal of this master thesis is to build a reference implementation for a player that renders Augmented Reality Learning Experience Models (ARLEM, IEEE standard P1589-2020) using the WebXR device APIs. WebXR is a collection of standards that support rendering of 3D scenes in Augmented Reality on eyeglasses as well as handheld devices.
ARLEM is tested on, for example, training sequences for astronauts.

Measuring coherence accross media in learning environments
Posted on 28. Sep 2017;
Supervised by PD Dr. Ralf Klamma, AOR, Prof. Dr. Marc Spaniol
Multimedia content based indexing delivered a lot of models for the analysis of multimedia materials. In modern educational platforms, e.g. MOOCs and self-regulated learning platforms. In consequence, multimedia materials are produced by educational designers but also by the learners during their learning processes. Coherence is a semantic measure for the local and global connectivity of e.g. sentences, paragraphs, videos, slides among others. Computer linguistics has provided impressive results for measuring the quality of writing, e.g. for automatic essay scoring.
To measure the coherence of multimedia materials many computational methods reaching from natural language processing to machine learning needs to be combined in a common coherence model. Goal of this master thesis is to co-develop a coherence model for cross-media coherence and to prototypically combine these computational methods for a webinar.

Systematic Evaluation Procedures of Mixed Reality Learning Applications
Posted on 04. Mar 2021;
Supervised by PD Dr. Ralf Klamma, AOR; Advisor(s):
Benedikt Hensen, M.Sc.
Mixed reality provides many opportunities for learning applications in formal and informal education. In previous projects, we created different learning applications for various use cases. The applications target technologies like the Microsoft HoloLens, HTC Vive, Oculus Quest 2 and smartphones. Initial pilot evaluations of these applications have already been conducted. However, we would like to have a more detailed and systematic analysis of the application’s characteristics in their intended use cases.

Service Provisioning for Mobile Edge Cloud Computing
Posted on 26. Oct 2017;
Supervised by PD Dr. Ralf Klamma, AOR
Mobile edge cloud computing provides a platform to accommodate the offloaded traffic workload generated by mobile devices. It can significantly reduce the access delay for mobile application users. However, the high user mobility brings significant challenges to the service provisioning for mobile users, especially for the delay-sensitive mobile applications. We want to research how to update the service provisioning solution for a given community of mobile users. Therefore, we compare current offloading strategies, information structures based on peer-to-peer in combination with cloud computing and client-side solutions using advanced Web protocols like WebRTC. The thesis continues our successful research record in mobile cloud computing.

Analyzing distributed ledger data structures for the immutable persistence of transactions and tamper-secure execution of processes
Posted on 31. Aug 2018;
Supervised by Prof. Dr. Thomas Rose; Advisor(s):
Thomas Osterland
Often only noticed as a technology that enables the digital currency Bitcoin, blockchain is a novel protocol that allows the distributed and secure storing of information and untampered execution of program code in trust-less environments. As part of a broader range of technologies that allow the immutable storage of information in decentralized networks, where network participants build a consensus about the correctness of persisted information, the classical blockchain is only one specific implementation of distributed ledger technologies. Other ledger technologies are based on directed acyclic graphs (DAGs). Topic of this thesis is the exploration and implementation of a DAG based ledger in the existing blockchain framework Labchain (https://github.com/putschli/LabChain).
