Master 4 66 120 Description In principle the master study program continues the qualification of understanding the context of complex technical systems from the bachelor study program, but now on a higher scientific level and with the opportunity for the students of setting up priorities in their degree. Hereby, the graduates become suitable for careers as engineers in several occupation areas, e.g. in the area of conception, planning and project development of automation in the branches of process control, manufacturing control, electrical power control, central building control, traffic control or control within cars or aeroplanes. Furthermore there exists a particular suitability to the solving of particularly complex or demanding tasks. Therefore the following additional occupations come into play for the Master’s graduates: • Research, • Project management, • Management positions with personnel responsibilities. Based on broad basic knowledge from the Bachelor study, in-depth knowledge in the following fields will be provided: • Mathematics (among others vector analysis, numerical mathematics) and additional physical basics (fluid dynamics), • Automation technology (with in-depth theoretical methods), • Computer science (real-time systems and distributed computer systems). With this the following special goals are aimed at: • Principle ability to familiarise with theoretical complex themes, • Ability to solve complex automation tasks, which require demanding methods of modelling, simulation and control.

Teaching form Lecture and exercise Learning objectives A lot of processes (from physics, economics, biology, technology …) cannot be described only with deterministic relationships, but need statistical methods. Students who have completed this course should be able to apply the concepts from stochastic variables and stochastic processes in practical problems. Description After a sound introduction in the notion of probability, stochastic variables will be discussed in detail. To that belong the different description possibilities through probability density function, probability distribution function and characteristic function. Beyond that, the properties of functions from stochastic variables will be handled. Stochastic processes which are extended from stochastic variables in time dimension will be emphasized on. Second-order moments such as the autocorrelation function, the cross correlation function as well as the corresponding power spectral density will be particularly discussed. Special stochastic processes of great practical importance such as the Gauss’s and Poisson’s processes will be handled. In conclusion, applications like optimal filters and modulation will be discussed. The contents will be deepened in exercises. Kind of examination Written examination (90 min) Literature A.

Teaching form Lecture and exercises Learning objectives The students should learn basic state estimation and parameter identification methods and be able to implement them in form of algorithms. Description A dynamic system is well described by its model structure, state variables and model parameters. In practice, they are often unknown and should be identified or estimated. In this course, basic methods for the identification and estimation of state variables and system parameters are introduced. The course consists of four thematic blocks. In Block I, State estimation - Kalman filter and observer schemes, different types of Kalman filters and observer schemes are introduced on the assumption that the system model and parameters are available, including • state estimation in static processes • State estimation in (linear) dynamic processes • H2 optimal observer. In Block II, Parameter identification - Least squares parameter estimation schemes, parameter identification is dealt on the assumption of a given system structure. Topics like parameter estimation in static processes, parameter estimation in dynamic processes and recursive algorithms are addressed. In case that the system is a block box, system identification is needed. In Block III, System identification - Subspace identification methods (SIM), the basic ideas and procedure of SIM are first introduced. It is followed by some standard SIMs. Block IV, SIM-added identification of kernel and image representations and data-driven design of feedback controllers and observers, is dedicated to the introduction of some data-driven design methods for controllers and observers.

Teaching form Lecture and exercises Learning objectives The students are able to qualitatively and quantitatively evaluate and rate the reliability of digital systems (hardware, software, and network). In addition, they are able to assess the relations between physical errors, test, simulation and design for testability and to select best approach for a given application with good reasons. Description Within this lecture, the characteristics of technical systems are analyzed and measured concerning their hazard potential. Furthermore, measures are presented, with which the quality of technical systems in the sense of an increased life span or a safe behavior can be achieved also in the case of an error. After completion of the lecture, students are familiar with the fundamentals for the description of erroneous technical systems and they are able to select an appropriate method, which promises the best results under economically justifiable expenditure for a given task. Besides that, the students are able to describe the error behavior of technical systems on different levels. They can distinguish between best use of the traditional methods to determine lift time, the use of redundancy to increase lifetime, Markov-chains and practical tools like FMEA and FMECA. They shall also be able to describe and handle the faulty behavior of technical systems on different levels. Systems discussed are complex mechatronic systems like cars and airplanes as well as electrical circuits and systems. In the area of testing, the test of digital circuits and systems is considered as well as computer systems and the software running on them. In this context, they can distinguish between different fault models, appropriate for different systems, simulation and test generation as well as Design for Testability.

Teaching form Lecture course (in-class lecture, with Powerpoint) and computer-based exercises (in-class lecture, with Powerpoint and Blackboard) Learning objectives Getting basic knowledge and understanding of real-time systems. Mapping real-time tasks into computer-based solutions by using real-time modelling tools, operating systems, and high-level languages. Judging various high-level languages for implementing certain real-time applications. Description Real-time systems have to process the data within specified timing constraints, which is an inherent characteristic of the correctness of a programm (apart from semantical correctness). The course treats the development of real-time systems using high-level languages (Ada, C++, Java). Included is the modelling of time and real-time behaviors, scheduling, concurrency, synchronisation, communication, time and event controlled systems.
