Dark Energy: Accurate estimation and awareness of cloud-induced power consumption
Phones and notebooks do not require much power? Wrong, most usage patterns involve the heavy use of cloud services. In contrast to device consumption, the extent of this indirect consumption is unknown to users. This project delivers a tool to trace cloud use and convey a CO2 equivalent to the user. ...

Dynamic Analysis of Internal Android Systems
In this project, we focus on the current state of Android security. One main focus will be to determine current difficulties and limitations that hinder security researchers in performing a dynamic analysis of Android pre-installed software components such as pre-installed apps or native libraries. In a first step, ...

CYREN ZH: Cyber Resilience Network For The Canton Of Zurich
How can we better protect ourselves from cyber threats? The answer to this question is as complex as cyber security itself, because the right balance must always be found between technical possibilities and political, social and economic interests. The increasing digitalisation of critical infrastructures in ...

MA4K8s: Machine advice for GitOps-managed Kubernetes configuration optimisation
The profitability of cloud providers is often negatively affected by misconfiguration of application resource constraints. In this research study, we check the feasibility of integrating ML on usage-dependent configurations into a GitOps workflow. The result will be a novel advisor service that tells GitOps ...

TomGrowthAI
Crops growth management in greenhouses is fundamental for their economical and ecological sustainability. Typically, smaller size greenhouses have the challenge to grow more than one crop variety, each having different growth control strategies. A precise estimate of the expected harvest and crop balance allows ...

Smart UMH: Smart urban multihub concept: Sustainable and liveable cities with low logistics visibility
Cities suffer from too much traffic, leading to congestion, air and noise pollution. Increased e-commerce popularity intensifies these challenges further. The Covid crisis has proven that our urban logistics systems are neither reliable, resilient, nor sustainable. Our objective is to develop a future urban ...

Green and sustainable digitalization for the textile industry
By optimizing production in the textile industry, digitalization can help to reduce power consumption and thus, emissions of pollutants. Yet, digitalization itself creates emissions, e.g., by using powerful AI algorithms. There is currently no transparency for how digitalization investments can reduce emissions. The ...

Surgical Proficiency – Data-driven transformation of surgical education for proficiency-based performance
Training on patients according to the principle of “see one, do one and teach one” no longer corresponds to today’s requirements and technical opportunities regarding education of surgical residents. During the Covid-19 pandemic, most hands-on training had to be discontinued, leading to an almost complete ...
