Wie lässt sich die Logistik in Städten zukunftssicher und klimaschonend gestalten? Dazu bedarf es innovativer Konzepte für leise, emissionsfreie sowie sichere und zuverlässige Transportlösungen. Im Forschungsprojekt USEfUL haben sich Akteure aus Kommunen, Wissenschaft und Wirtschaft der Regionen Hannover und Braunschweig zusammengeschlossen. Das Projektteam entwickelt eine App, die verschiedene Logistikkonzepte und ihre Auswirkungen vergleicht. Sie kann Politik, Kommunen und Unternehmen bei der Entscheidung unterstützen.
In this paper the workflow of the project 'Untersuchungs-, Simulations- und Evaluationstool für Urbane Logistik` (USEfUL) is presented. Aiming to create a web-based decision support tool for urban logistics, the project needed to integrate multiple steps into a single workflow, which in turn needed to be executed multiple times. While a service-oriented system could not be created, the principles of service orientation was utilized to increase workflow efficiency and flexibility, allowing the workflow to be easily adapted to new concepts or research areas.
The usage of microservices promises a lot of benefits concerning scalability and maintainability, rewriting large monoliths is however not always possible. Especially in scientific projects, pure microservice architectures are therefore not feasible in every project. We propose the utilization of microservice principles for the construction of microsimulations for urban transport. We present a prototypical architecture for the connection of MATSim and AnyLogic, two widely used simulation tools in the context of urban transport simulation. The proposed system combines the two tools into a singular tool supporting civil engineers in decision making on innovative urban transport concepts.
Portable-micro-Combined-Heat-and-Power-units are a gateway technology bridging conventional vehicles and Battery Electric Vehicles (BEV). Being a new technology, new software has to be created that can be easily adapted to changing requirements. We propose and evaluate three different architectures based on three architectural paradigms. Using a scenario-based evaluation, we conclude that a Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) using microservices provides a higher quality solution than a layered or Event-Driven Complex-Event-Processing (ED-CEP) approach. Future work will include implementation and simulation-driven evaluation.
During the transition from conventional towards purely electrical, sustainable mobility, transitional technologies play a major part in the task of increasing adaption rates and decreasing range anxiety. Developing new concepts to meet this challenge requires adaptive test benches, which can easily be modified e.g. when progressing from one stage of development to the next, but also meet certain sustainability demands themselves.
The system architecture presented in this paper is built around a service-oriented software layer, connecting a modular hardware layer for direct access to sensors and actuators to an extensible set of client tools. Providing flexibility, serviceability and ease of use, while maintaining a high level of reusability for its constituent components and providing features to reduce the required overall run time of the test benches, it can effectively decrease the CO2 emissions of the test bench while increasing its sustainability and efficiency.
