paluno published an industry-article “Proactive event processing in action: A case study on the proactive management of transport processes” at this year`s DEBS-conference (Distributed Event Based Systems). The article was written in cooperation with researchers of IBM Haifa and Kühne+Nagel within the FIspace-Project. The article is published in: Z. Feldmann, F. Fournier, R. Franklin, and A. Metzger, “Industry article: Proactive event processing in action: A case study on the proactive management of transport processes,” in Proceedings of the Seventh ACM International Conference on Distributed Event-Based Systems, DEBS 2013, Arlington, Texas, USA, S. Chakravarthy, S. Urban, P. Pietzuch, E. Rundensteiner, and S. Dietrich, Eds. ACM, 2013.

Thorsten Weyer’s contribution "Status Quo im Requirements Engineering für Embedded Systems - Herausforderungen und Lösungen durch modellbasierte Techniken" (engl. „Status Quo in Requirements Engineering for Embedded Systems – Challenges and Solutions by means of Model-based Techniques) was accepted by the program committee of the 6th Embedded Software Engineering Congress. The Embedded Software Engineering Congress takes place since 2008 and is the biggest congress for embedded software professionals in Germany. This year, the congress will take place in Sindelfingen from 2-6 December.

The first SRII Europe Leadership Summit took place in Erlangen on 27th and 28th of June. SRII (Service Research and Innovation Institute) is a nonprofit global research institute with a mission to drive research and innovation for “IT Enabled Services”.

Andreas Metzger was moderator at the panel “Future of the Internet for Services”. The panel featured short presentations in the context of Cloud Services, Internet of Things, Big Data and funding opportunities at Horizon 2020 and FI PPP. Horizon 2020, the new framework program of the European Commission, will follow the 7th Framework Programme (FP7) in 2014. The „Open Call“ of the FIspace project was presented as example for funding opportunities in FI PPP. paluno acts as Technical Architect in FIspace.

Nazila Gol Mohamadi, Thorsten Weyer, and Prof. Sachar Paulus (University of Applied Science Brandenburg) submitted an invited keynote paper at the 14th Conference on Communications and Multimedia Security (CMS‘2013).
