But due to the lack of open and compatible simulators, authors typically create their own simulation environments for training and evaluation. This is cumbersome and time-consuming for authors and limits reproducibility and comparability, ultimately impeding progress in the field. To this end, we propose mobile-env, a simple and open platform for training, evaluating, and comparing reinforcement learning and conventional approaches for continuous control in mobile wireless networks. mobile-env is lightweight and implements the common OpenAI Gym interface and additional wrappers, which allows connecting virtually any single-agent or multi-agent reinforcement learning framework to the environment. While mobile-env provides sensible default values and can be used out of the box, it also has many configuration options and is easy to extend. We therefore believe mobile-env to be a valuable platform for driving meaningful progress in autonomous coordination of wireless mobile networks.}}, author = {{Schneider, Stefan Balthasar and Werner, Stefan and Khalili, Ramin and Hecker, Artur and Karl, Holger}}, booktitle = {{IEEE/IFIP Network Operations and Management Symposium (NOMS)}}, keywords = {{wireless mobile networks, network management, continuous control, cognitive networks, autonomous coordination, reinforcement learning, gym environment, simulation, open source}}, location = {{Budapest}}, publisher = {{IEEE}}, title = {{{mobile-env: An Open Platform for Reinforcement Learning in Wireless Mobile Networks}}}, year = {{2022}}, } @inbook{16296, abstract = {{Multiobjective optimization plays an increasingly important role in modern applications, where several objectives are often of equal importance. The task in multiobjective optimization and multiobjective optimal control is therefore to compute the set of optimal compromises (the Pareto set) between the conflicting objectives. Since the Pareto set generally consists of an infinite number of solutions, the computational effort can quickly become challenging which is particularly problematic when the objectives are costly to evaluate as is the case for models governed by partial differential equations (PDEs). To decrease the numerical effort to an affordable amount, surrogate models can be used to replace the expensive PDE evaluations. Existing multiobjective optimization methods using model reduction are limited either to low parameter dimensions or to few (ideally two) objectives. In this article, we present a combination of the reduced basis model reduction method with a continuation approach using inexact gradients. The resulting approach can handle an arbitrary number of objectives while yielding a significant reduction in computing time.}}, author = {{Banholzer, Stefan and Gebken, Bennet and Dellnitz, Michael and Peitz, Sebastian and Volkwein, Stefan}}, booktitle = {{Non-Smooth and Complementarity-Based Distributed Parameter Systems}}, editor = {{Michael, Hintermüller and Roland, Herzog and Christian, Kanzow and Michael, Ulbrich and Stefan, Ulbrich}}, isbn = {{978-3-030-79392-0}}, pages = {{43--76}}, publisher = {{Springer}}, title = {{{ROM-Based Multiobjective Optimization of Elliptic PDEs via Numerical Continuation}}}, doi = {{10.1007/978-3-030-79393-7_3}}, year = {{2022}}, } @inbook{30294, abstract = {{With the ever increasing capabilities of sensors and controllers, autonomous driving is quickly becoming a reality.

To avoid chattering, we introduce a reduced model which is still biologically relevant and retains the important structural features of the original problem.

Trusted execution environments, such as Intel SGX enclaves, promise to provide a secure environment in which data can be decrypted and then processed. However, vulnerabilities in the executed program give attackers ample opportunities to execute arbitrary code inside the enclave. This code can modify the dataflow of the program and leak secrets via SGX side channels. Fully homomorphic encryption would be an alternative to compute on encrypted data without data leaks. However, due to its high computational complexity, its applicability to general-purpose computing remains limited. Researchers have made several proposals for transforming programs to perform encrypted computations on less powerful encryption schemes. Yet current approaches do not support programs making control-flow decisions based on encrypted data. We introduce the concept of dataflow authentication (DFAuth) to enable such programs. DFAuth prevents an adversary from arbitrarily deviating from the dataflow of a program. Our technique hence offers protections against the side-channel attacks described previously. We implemented two flavors of DFAuth, a Java bytecode-to-bytecode compiler, and an SGX enclave running a small and program-independent trusted code base. We applied DFAuth to a neural network performing machine learning on sensitive medical data and a smart charging scheduler for electric vehicles. Our transformation yields a neural network with encrypted weights, which can be evaluated on encrypted inputs in \( 12.55 \,\mathrm{m}\mathrm{s} \) . Our protected scheduler is capable of updating the encrypted charging plan in approximately 1.06 seconds. }}, author = {{Fischer, Andreas and Fuhry, Benny and Kußmaul, Jörn and Janneck, Jonas and Kerschbaum, Florian and Bodden, Eric}}, issn = {{2471-2566}}, journal = {{ACM Transactions on Privacy and Security}}, keywords = {{Safety, Risk, Reliability and Quality, General Computer Science}}, number = {{3}}, pages = {{1--36}}, publisher = {{Association for Computing Machinery (ACM)}}, title = {{{Computation on Encrypted Data Using Dataflow Authentication}}}, doi = {{10.1145/3513005}}, volume = {{25}}, year = {{2022}}, } @misc{31947, author = {{Hillebrandt, Henning}}, title = {{{Verteiltes Berechnen kompakter Routingtabellen in Unit Disk Graphen}}}, year = {{2022}}, } @article{31982, abstract = {{AbstractWe show that for a generic conformal metric perturbation of a compact hyperbolic 3-manifold $$\Sigma $$ Σ with Betti number $$b_1$$ b 1 , the order of vanishing of the Ruelle zeta function at zero equals $$4-b_1$$ 4 - b 1 , while in the hyperbolic case it is equal to $$4-2b_1$$ 4 - 2 b 1 .
