Serious Gaming in Mental e-Health - offen |
|---|
Diese Bachelorarbeit ist eine Zusammenarbeit mit einem Studierenden der klinischen Psychologie. Gegenstand ist die Entwicklung und Evaluation einer Smartphone-Applikation, die mithilfe einer Kombination verschiedener psychologisch erprobter Methoden die mentale Gesundheit bei Jugendlichen und jungen Erwachsenen verbessern soll. Während der klinisch-psychologische Teil der Bachelorarbeit sich mit den klinisch-psychologischen Konzepten und der Durchführung der Evaluation auseinandersetzt, wird der informatische Teil die Entwicklung eines motivationalen Konzeptes (Serious Gaming) und die Umsetzung der App mittels eines User Centered Design Cycles umfassen. In einem iterativen soll die Usability der App schrittweise verbessert werden, sodass am Ende des gemeinsamen Aufwandes ein funktionierender App-Prototyp steht. Voraussetzungen: HCI-Vorlesung muss besucht worden sein, Kenntnisse in Programmierung für Android erforderlich |

Interface and Interaction Design of aMobileWeb Application for ABAC-enabled Smart-Home management - open |
|---|
In the context of the COSY IoT-Lab, a first prototype of a mobile web application was developed, which enables users to manage Smart-Home devices securely via access policies. Interface and Interaction Design of this prototype is not yet up to the task. As a next step, it is necessary to iterate on this prototype and its ABAC policy concept, enhance its interface and interaction design and conduct a user study to validate it, For this topic, you will (1) conduct a literature and related work analysis around interfaces for related smart home systems, (2) familiarize yourself with the Smart Home solution currently under development in our research group and the existing mobile web app prototype, (3) develop a novel concept of interface and interaction design that suits both the mobile web interface and the requirements of usable design of security measures, (4) implement your concept as a next interation of the mobile web app prototype and (5) validate your results with a small user study. Testing and verification will be conducted in the COSY:Lab using existing equipment and development and verification environment. |

b. Topics with a Network-related Focus
Public IP Fog-based Smart Home services reachability - open |
|---|
This thesis relies heavily on computer networks knowledge, especially in layers 3,4,5 of TCP/IP stack. Goal of this thesis is to enable access to the services provided in local network to the public IP. Therefore, in scope of this topic you will get very familiar and try out multiple network protocols, such as HTTP, WebSockets, MQTT,AMQP, NAT, UPnP, etc...Or whatever else you find suitable to resolve the given challenge! This thesis relies on already existing Smart Home framework, developed in the Cooperative Systems research group. The framework - COSYLab, already provides all the required services, such as user and device management, sensing capabilities. Your assignment is "just" to expose these services to be reachable all over the world and adapt existing mobile and web applications to make use of the implemented reachability. |

Configuration engine for Smart-Home environment - open |
|---|
"Define event-based environment for runtime configuration of the Smart-Home and make Smart-Home smarter" Make use of the collected data from the sensors in the Smart-Home and define events that could be of interest to define optimal behavior of the Smart-Home appliances. Use defined events and bind them with script language(JavaScript for example) to trigger proper actions and optimise usage of the Smart-Home sensors( disable temperature readings if there isn't any user present in the system). This solution will be integrated with already existing Smart-Home management framework, present on COSY:Lab. |

Indoor localization Access Control management - open |
|---|
"Manage Access Control policies based on presence of users in the Smart-Home" Integrate some of the existing technologies for localization and presence detection(RDIF, BLE) with ABAC-enabled Smart-Home management system. Goal of this thesis is to enable definition and validation of the access policies in Smart-Home that required users' presence events as input and allow/forbid particular actions in Smart-Home based on those events. This solution will be integrated with already existing Smart-Home management framework, present on COSY:Lab. |

Blockchain-based Smart Home device registry - open |
|---|
"Use blockchain to make services, features and bugs of IoT devices transparent to all users!" Implement blockchain-based storage for all types of sensors, which are used inside of Smart Home framework. This storage should contain information on supported functionalities on the devices, combined with firmware versions of sensors. Moreover, this registry should support option of providing client-side feedback on some sensor services and whether they work properly, so that other Smart Home framework users can become more aware of possible malfunctions and/or security breaches inside their Smart Homes. Ultimate goal is to achieve trust reputation network, which would make perfect match with blochain properties, such as : backward traceability, immutability and transparency. |
