Abstract

While blockchain is currently discussed in a number of different scenarios, still a lot of questions remain unanswered. One of those questions is the analysis of data that is stored on the blockchain. The project aims at creating Business Intelligence like reports of  Business Intelligence (BI) of blockchain based data.

Abstract

Many real world networks share the same structural properties. We have developed an agent-based game-theoretic model which promises an explanation of the structure of real world networks. In this project we want use the HPI Future SOC Lab to investigate the properties of large generated networks and to validate them with real-world data.

Abstract

Our project contributes to the field of behaviour-based authentication. In the last years we collected a great amount of walking sequences of several people. As this dataset is too large to be processed on a normal machine, we hope to evaluate and improve our authentication model by the support of additional resources.

Abstract

Gait analysis is an important tool to assess diseases or clinical conditions that have motor symptoms, such as Parkinson's disease, stroke or knee replacement surgeries. Currently, most of the gait analysis systems require a larger and expensive clinical setup. The goal of this research project is the development of a mobile gait analysis solution.

Abstract

We want to investigate the use of GPUs for enterprise relevant machine learning algorithms. In particular, we aim to adapt an implementation of an algorithm for causal inference to target the GPU as an execution device. This reduces the execution time of the algorithm and in addition free CPU cycles to be used by other enterprise applications.

Abstract

Automated generation of test suites tackles the complexity of testing apps. The selection of the generation method is typically done in a trial-and-error fashion due to unknown characteristics of the apps. Analyzing the fitness landscapes of Google Play's top 1000 apps, we want to understand the characteristics and improve the generation method.

Abstract

We are developing a peer-to-peer CDN for the school-cloud. A peer-to-peer based CDN is able to use the time and localness of data to reduce the needed bandwidth by transferring data within the local network between two peers. To evaluate this, we want to compare different peer meshing strategies and explore technical limitations.

On large-scale multicore systems, the latency of TLB shootdowns is dominated by a multicast mechanism based on IPIs. This project evaluates the impact of low latency TLB shotdowns on application performance by replacing the sequential multicast mechanism in the Linux kernel by a tree-based variant with logarithmic scaling.
