In this R&D project, scanmeter - a service for the automated security analysis of IT systems - is being extended by three innovative components. This will significantly increase the level of automation and test coverage, significantly improve customer benefits, and expand the fields of applications. Specifically, ...

Emerging Mobility As A Services (MAAS) are pushing the boundaries of DevOps practices and processes, with new challenges to handle for both practitioners and researchers. MAAS providers such as BOND (Bike ON Demand start-up in Switzerland) employ DevOps innovations to sustain the evolution of future MAAS services ...

The rolling stock industry is mission critical and places hard real time deadlines on its operations. Network security in train control products, and across a productrange, is an utmost concern which we meet by developing both an innovative methodology and IP components to meet these challenges.  ...

The ambition of this project is to develop improved quantum-dot (QD) encapsulation technology for display enhancement films, innovative measurement systems and simulation software for characterizing QD films as well as ink-jet printing technology for deposition of QD films on top of OLED pixels.  ...

Much of the increasing complexity of ICT systems is being driven by the more distributed and heterogeneous nature of these systems, with Cyber Physical Systems accounting for an increasing portion of Software Ecosystems. This basic premise underpins the COSMOS proposal which focuses on blending best practices DevOps ...

The start-up project will be used to finance various preliminary work in the field of R&D, which is a prerequisite for the launch of a joint project at national and international level. At a conference at the ZHAW in autumn 2019, the ZHAW was already mentioned as a "peat-free competence center". In order for the ...

Atypical Enterobacteria are frequently misidentified in clinical diagnostics due to unsettled taxonomy and noisy reference databases. Despite of their environmental origin, they regularly appear in clinical samples and increasingly display multi-drug resistances (MDRs) that are acquired during adaptation to the ...

For centuries, hop (Humulus lupulus) has been considered an essential ingredient in the beer brewing process, as certain molecules contained in its cones give the drink its typical bitterness and aroma. Hop cultivation, already delicate, is now threatened by global warming. Domestic hop production in Switzerland ...

Currently there is an unmet need for trust and privacy in multi-party data analytics (e.g. in cloud computing). A new solution approach using hardware-based trusted execution environments is called Confidential Computing. The Zurich-based and investor-backed startup decentriq is a provider of confidential analytics ...

The goal of this project is to develop an equivalent copy of the ThermoMed device manufactured by Thermosurgery Technologies Inc. All components and manufacturing process should be selected to allow low manufacturing costs.

The goal of this project is to develop and build at ZHAW a specific ultrasound device adapted to the needs of Prof. Maake’s group.

The research project focuses on what people need and expect from “digital assistants” in the context of smart homes. The research is guided by the assumption that digital assistants have the potential to promote autonomous and self-determined living in old age at home and to relieve relatives. In the academic ...

Integration of multifunctionality in small lighting units through DfAM (Design for Additive Manufacturing) to optimise the function and design of lighting systems.

A new revision of 802.1AS (IEEE 802.1AS-2020) has been published, which contains certain extensions and improvement compared to 802.1AS-2011. In parallel, the Industrial Automation Profile for Time sensitive networks (TSN), which will be the IEEE/IEC 60802 joint standard, is under definition and certain features ...

The company is subject to change processes. And with it organizations, institutions and companies. The way we think, act and communicate is changing. How do we respond to these changes? How do we shape change? With which images, with which stories do we tell about ourselves? How do we give our social, our ...

Consultation for smart-meter data anonymization

To strengthen capacity in the area of ethical sharing of longitudinally linked, infectious and chronic diseases research data produced in Malawi using MEIRU data as a prototype

The final objective (this offer is for a first phase) is to build a demonstrator to show the feasibility of implementing frame preemption (IEEE802.3 clause 99 and IEEE802.1Qbr) on 10BASE-T1L links, if possible in a multi-vendor setup.

About 2-3% of the worldwide population develop kidney stones. The stone can be treated with extra corporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL). For the treatment the stone has to be positioned in the focus of the shock wave source. Patient positioning is critical, because misalignment will lead to ineffective treatment ...
