The Future Circle of Healthcare: AI, 3D Printing, Longevity, Ethics, and Uncertainty Mitigation (Future of Business and Finance)
by Philipp Plugmann Patrick Glauner Sepehr Ehsani Florian M. ThieringerThe past decade has brought to the fore the critical need to constantly envision and consider various scenarios where ongoing trends and sudden changes could together alter the provision of healthcare and the direction of medical research. This book brings together scholars whose areas of expertise represent different themes that are essential to understanding how healthcare might change and evolve over the next decade. What lessons can one take away from current and past developments? The themes explored by the book rest on four pillars. The first is the rapid pace and ubiquity of technological advances in areas such as artificial intelligence, machine learning, additive manufacturing and wearable electronics. The second pillar concerns healthy aging, longevity and the management of chronic diseases. The third is the imperative to remain cognizant of the ethical dimensions of medical decisions, adapting bioethics to ongoing changes in healthcare provision. Finally, the fourth pillar relates to how uncertainty in different domains of medical knowledge can be mitigated and translated into clinical practice. For example, how should uncertainty with the results of clinical trials for a new treatment be dealt with? What cost-benefit analyses would be most appropriate for the situation? Chapter authors identify respective challenges and promising opportunities, discussing how these could contribute to envisioning the future scope of healthcare when it comes to providing medical, economic and ethical values to human societies.Chapters 1, 4, 12, and 20 are available open access under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License via link.springer.com.
Control and Protection of 100% Inverter-based Power Systems
by Florian MahrIn this Open-Access book, voltage source converters (VSCs) as key components of sustainable energy systems based on wind power plants, photovoltaic power plants, battery energy systems, electric vehicles and heat pumps are investigated. In the future, 100% inverter-based power systems (IBPS) will arise. Protective systems against grid faults are a substantial part of electrical grids. They prevent danger to living beings and damage to technical equipment caused by grid faults. The control algorithms of VSCs and protection algorithms must collaborate in future grids. Otherwise, the reliability of energy supply is at risk. Today, control and protection are often regarded independently of each other. In this book, they are investigated mutually. The resilience of the system against grid faults is increased by using flexibility options of VSCs. A universal protection algorithm, which does not restrict these flexibility options, is developed. In this book, post-fault characteristics of VSCs, neutral point treatment and resonant grounding via VSCs and a model-based protection algorithm are presented. The sustainable and reliable energy supply is an essential cornerstone of human societies. This book is pointing out a holistic approach for the control and protection of 100% IBPS contributes along this way.

Der Prozess mobiler Entwicklungsprojekte: Herausforderungen und Lösungen in der professionellen App-Entwicklung
by Florian Siebler-GuthSuchen Sie ein Prozessmodell für ein mobiles Entwicklungsprojekt? Sie fragen sich, nach welchem Prozessmodell Apps in der Praxis entwickelt werden?Suchen Sie ein Prozessmodell für ein mobiles Entwicklungsprojekt? Sie fragen sich, nach welchem Prozessmodell Apps in der Praxis entwickelt werden?Florian Siebler-Guth zeigt in seinem Buch, dass in der Praxis kein anerkanntes Prozessmodell für mobile Entwicklungsprojekte verwendet wird. Herkömmliche Methoden – Scrum und XP – könnten zwar angepasst werden, sie berücksichtigen aber nicht die Besonderheiten mobiler Entwicklungsprojekte und sind vielen Teams zu formal. Daher fokussiert der Autor auf die Gemeinsamkeiten agiler Methoden, die sogenannten „Muster agiler Methoden“, beispielsweise auf Muster wie „Iteration“ im Sinne eines inkrementell-iterativen Vorgehens oder wie „Informelle Kommunikation“. Basierend auf Interviews mit professionellen App-Entwicklern aus der Praxis wird klar: Die Muster werden in Abhängigkeit vom Entwicklungskontext unterschiedlich gewichtet. Aufbauend auf den Erkenntnissen der geführten Interviews entwickelt Florian Siebler-Guth mit „Crystal Mobile“ ein Prozessmodell für das Mobile App Development. Mit dem gewichteten Musterkatalog und mit „Crystal Mobile“ liefert er einen Werkzeugkasten, der in keiner Software-Schmiede fehlen darf – besonders, wenn darin Apps produziert werden.Ein spannendes Buch für alle, die mehr über Agilität und agile Handlungsweisen, insbesondere in der mobilen Entwicklung erfahren wollen.
Collaborative Cyber Threat Intelligence: Detecting and Responding to Advanced Cyber Attacks at the National Level
by Florian SkopikThreat intelligence is a surprisingly complex topic that goes far beyond the obvious technical challenges of collecting, modelling and sharing technical indicators. Most books in this area focus mainly on technical measures to harden a system based on threat intel data and limit their scope to single organizations only. This book provides a unique angle on the topic of national cyber threat intelligence and security information sharing. It also provides a clear view on ongoing works in research laboratories world-wide in order to address current security concerns at national level. It allows practitioners to learn about upcoming trends, researchers to share current results, and decision makers to prepare for future developments.
Cyber Attack Information System: Erfahrungen und Erkenntnisse aus der IKT-Sicherheitsforschung (Xpert.press)
by Florian Skopik Helmut Leopold Thomas BleierIn den letzten Jahren hat sich das Internet schnell zu einem massiven wirtschaftlichen Betätigungsfeld entwickelt, leider auch für illegale Unternehmungen. Das Ausnutzen von Schwachstellen in IKT-Systemen ist inzwischen ein profitables Geschäftsmodell. Das staatlich geförderte Forschungsprojekt CAIS beschäftigte sich deshalb mit der Implementierung eines Cyber Attack Information Systems auf nationaler Ebene mit dem Ziel, die Widerstandsfähigkeit der heutigen vernetzten Systeme zu stärken und ihre Verfügbarkeit und Vertrauenswürdigkeit zu erhöhen. Hauptziele dieses Projektes waren die Identifizierung der künftigen Cyber-Risiken und -Bedrohungen, die Untersuchung neuartiger Techniken zur Anomalieerkennung, die Entwicklung modularer Infrastrukturmodelle und agentenbasierter Simulationen zur Risiko- und Bedrohungsanalyse, und schließlich die Analyse und mögliche Umsetzung eines nationalen Cyber Attack Information Systems.
Cyber Situational Awareness in Public-Private-Partnerships: Organisationsübergreifende Cyber-Sicherheitsvorfälle effektiv bewältigen
by Florian Skopik Maria Leitner Tímea PáhiDigitale Dienste werden für unsere Gesellschaft immer wichtiger, daher gelangen sie auch stärker ins Visier von Wirtschaftskriminellen, Spionen, Terroristen oder staatsfeindlichen Gruppierungen. Wie schützen sich Unternehmen und Staaten vor solchen Cyber-Attacken? Ein wichtiger Grundstein ist die Schaffung von Behörden, wie sie die EU-Richtlinie über Maßnahmen zur Gewährleistung eines hohen gemeinsamen Sicherheitsniveaus von Netz- und Informationssystemen (NIS) vorsieht. Das Buch zeigt, wie sich die Zusammenarbeit von Unternehmen mit diesen NIS-Behörden gestaltet mit dem gemeinsamen Ziel, Cyber-Sicherheit zu etablieren und zu gewährleisten. Darüber hinaus legen die Autoren dar, wie sich die NIS-Richtlinie und die im Mai 2018 in Kraft getretene EU-Datenschutz-Grundverordnung (DSGVO) auf Security-Prozesse in Unternehmen auswirken können. Das Buch verknüpft technische, organisatorische und rechtliche Aspekte der Zusammenarbeit und spiegelt damit die Komplexität des Themas wider. Zugleich liefert es zahlreiche Vorschläge zur Umsetzung der EU-Richtlinie. Im Mittelpunkt steht dabei das Konzept der „Cyber Situational Awareness“ – das bewusste Erfassen der aktuellen Lage – und damit ein Instrument, mit dem sich die Reaktionsfähigkeit bei Cyber-Angriffen wesentlich erhöhen lässt. Folgende Themen werden erläutert: • Aufbau und Nutzung von Cyber Situational Awareness • Erstellung von Cyber-Lagebildern auf nationaler Ebene • Informations- und Datenquellen für Cyber-Lagebilder• Informationsaustausch zwischen Cyber-Lagezentren und Stakeholdern • Informations- und Meldepflichten von Unternehmen• Planspiel zur Bildung und Evaluierung von Cyber Situational Awareness
