paluno participates in ENVELOPE to advance 6G research in Europe

paluno is proud to announce it will participate in the project titled ENVELOPE from the latest Smart Networks and Services Joint Undertaking (SNS JU) call for proposals. This project is set to develop innovative solutions for 6G technologies in Europe.

No blind trust in AI-based decisions

Can companies trust artificial intelligence? Researchers from paluno, the Ruhr Institute for Software Technology at the University of Duisburg-Essen, have developed AI systems that support the operational management of business processes. The special feature: In addition to accurate predictions and suggestions for process adaptations, the systems provide explanations for their results.

Reliable Connectivity for Autonomous Vehicles

Our future mobility will be based on connectivity, cooperation and automation. The EU project PoDIUM* aims to advance the communication technologies needed for this in living labs. Prof. Dr. Amr Rizk and his team from paluno, the Ruhr Institute for Software Technology, at the University of Duisburg-Essen will contribute to the reliability of 5G communication with adaptive data transmission.

Great Success: Lucas Davi receives ERC Starting Grant

For his research in the field of software security, Dr. Lucas Davi, assistant professor at paluno, the Ruhr Institute for Software Technology at the University of Duisburg-Essen, has been awarded one of the most endowed prizes for young scientists: an ERC Starting Grant. This provides the computer scientist with 1.5 million euros to develop a solution that holistically protects smart contracts from hacker attacks.

Security Vulnerabilities in Fingerprint Sensors and Crypto Wallets

Security experts from paluno, the Ruhr Institute for Software Technology at the University of Duisburg-Essen have developed a new technique that, for the first time, enables fuzz testing of protected memory areas in modern processors. Their method revealed many vulnerabilities in security-critical software. The research was funded within the CASA* cluster of excellence.

Light into the Black Box

Explainable AI aims to make the results of artificial intelligence algorithms understandable. A research team led by Prof. Dr. Klaus Pohl from paluno – The Ruhr Institute for Software Technology at the University of Duisburg-Essen has developed an explainable AI technique for predictive monitoring of business processes.

Data Protection between Edge and Cloud

Edge Computing is a key technology for the Internet of Thing (IoT). However, the combination with cloud computing poses new challenges for data protection. Scientists from the software technology institute paluno at the University of Duisburg-Essen (IDE) have joined forces with NOKIA to develop an algorithm that supports the data-protection-compliant and cost-saving allocation of data-processing application components between the edge and the cloud.

Protection for Safety-Critical Systems

Trustworthiness is the basis for every good collaboration. This applies to humans as well as machines. Professor Lucas Davi and his team from the software engineering institute paluno at the University of Duisburg-Essen have developed a solution to check the integrity of embedded devices without affecting their runtime behavior.

New Open Access Book on the Foundations for Big Data Innovation

How can Europe leverage the potential of Big Data? How can data be used to create value for society and the economy? Which technologies are promising? What political and economic measures are needed? Answers to these and other question are provided by “The Elements of Big Data Value”.
