Cre<strong>at</strong><strong>in</strong>G essentials of future teCHnoloGies<br />
as a Master’s student, you particip<strong>at</strong>e <strong>in</strong> the world-class research of<br />
<strong>rWtH</strong> <strong>in</strong>form<strong>at</strong>ik faculty and research <strong>in</strong>stitutes <strong>in</strong> the follow<strong>in</strong>g fields:<br />
Excellence <strong>in</strong> Fundamentals and Software Systems<br />
basic research complements the strong practice-orient<strong>at</strong>ion of <strong>rWtH</strong><br />
<strong>in</strong>form<strong>at</strong>ik cre<strong>at</strong><strong>in</strong>g the strong fundamentals on which future breakthroughs<br />
and quality <strong>in</strong> software technology and applic<strong>at</strong>ions are built.<br />
Excellence <strong>in</strong> Inform<strong>at</strong>ion and Communic<strong>at</strong>ion<br />
<strong>in</strong>form<strong>at</strong>ion management, d<strong>at</strong>a analysis and future communic<strong>at</strong>ion<br />
technologies go hand <strong>in</strong> hand <strong>in</strong> top research activities such as aachen’s<br />
uMiC excellence Cluster on Mobile Communic<strong>at</strong>ions, funded directly by<br />
the German n<strong>at</strong>ional science found<strong>at</strong>ion, dfG.<br />
Excellence <strong>in</strong> Visualiz<strong>at</strong>ion and Simul<strong>at</strong>ion<br />
<strong>in</strong> addition to theory and experiment<strong>at</strong>ion, simul<strong>at</strong>ion has become the<br />
third pillar of science and eng<strong>in</strong>eer<strong>in</strong>g. <strong>rWtH</strong> <strong>in</strong>form<strong>at</strong>ik has taken a<br />
leadership role <strong>in</strong> high performance simul<strong>at</strong>ion and multimedia visualiz<strong>at</strong>ion,<br />
not the least through access to europe’s fastest supercomputer <strong>in</strong><br />
the forschungszentrum Jülich.<br />
the next pages illustr<strong>at</strong>e how the competence centers of <strong>rWtH</strong> <strong>in</strong>form<strong>at</strong>ik<br />
benefit all of us.<br />
Excellence <strong>in</strong> Fundamentals and Software Systems<br />
WHo Makes europe’s spaCe Missions safer?<br />
the european space agency esa seeks to reduce the risks of control software defects <strong>in</strong><br />
spaceflight systems by us<strong>in</strong>g methods and software tools th<strong>at</strong> f<strong>in</strong>d such bugs autom<strong>at</strong>ically.<br />
s<strong>in</strong>ce february 2009, the software Model<strong>in</strong>g and verific<strong>at</strong>ion Chair <strong>at</strong> <strong>rWtH</strong> aachen <strong>university</strong><br />
leads a challeng<strong>in</strong>g new project to evalu<strong>at</strong>e error-freeness and performance of spacecraft<br />
hardware and software. together with the italian bruno kessler found<strong>at</strong>ion, the Chair<br />
will develop new software tools th<strong>at</strong> avoid the risks of deadlocks and provably predict the<br />
reliability of a new mission. typical for <strong>rWtH</strong> <strong>in</strong>form<strong>at</strong>ik is the <strong>in</strong>terdiscipl<strong>in</strong>ary, <strong>in</strong>tern<strong>at</strong>ional,<br />
and <strong>in</strong>dustry-oriented research: the result<strong>in</strong>g methods and tools will then be implemented on<br />
modern space systems <strong>in</strong> cooper<strong>at</strong>ion with a french company.<br />
