2019-05-13 - 2019-05-15 | DLR-Standort Berlin, Rutherfordstraße 2, Berlin, 12489
Traffic simulations are of immense importance for researchers as well as practitioners in the field of transportation. SUMO has been available since 2001 and provides a wide range of traffic planning and simulation applications. SUMO consists of a suite of tools covering road network imports and enrichment, demand generation and assignment and a state-of-the-art microscopic traffic simulation capable to simulate private and public transport modes, as well as person-based trip chains. Being open source, SUMO is ready to implement new behavioral models or to control the simulation remotely using various programming environments. These and other features make SUMO one of the most often used open source traffic simulations with a large and international user community.

{:de}6. Nationale Konferenz "Satellitenkommunikation in Deutschland"{:}{:en}Sixth ‘Satellite Communication in Germany’ Conference{:}
2019-05-14 - 2019-05-15 | Kameha Grand Bonn, Am Bonner Bogen 1, Bonn, NRW, 53227, Deutschland
The sixth national ‘Satellite Communication in Germany’ conference will be held on 14–15 May 2019, once more at the Kameha Grand Hotel in Bonn. Senior representatives from industry and research will join public funding agencies. They will discuss how satellite communication is an indispensable contribution to communication networks in tomorrow’s world.
In addition to scientific talks, the event will also feature overview talks and panel discussions on the following topics:
• Satellites in the 5G mobile communications network / digitalisation
• Terrestrial-space network
• On-board processing for more flexible networks
• Secure communication in government and commercial networks
• Innovative payload technologies
• Future satellite systems
• Optical communications networks.
There will also be an opportunity to present exhibits during the event that address relevant topics, as well as to give short talks.
We will again provide students and doctoral candidates with the opportunity to present their bachelor’s, master’s or doctoral theses in the form of DIN A0 posters. All participants at the conference will be asked to rate the work presented. A prize for the best contribution will be awarded at the end of the conference.

Sprechen Sie mit unseren Wissenschaftlerinnen und Wissenschaftlern am DLR-Karrierestand und entdecken Sie die faszinierenden Forschungswelten des DLR. Erfahren Sie, wie Sie an den Lösungen für die Welt von morgen mitarbeiten können.
Wir freuen uns auf interessante Gespräche mit Ihnen!

{:de}5. Produktionstechnik-Kolloquium: 10 Jahre ZLP Augsburg{:}{:en}5th Colloquium on Production Technology: 10th anniversary of ZLP Augsburg{:}
2019-05-15 09:30 - 18:00 | DLR-Zentrum für Leichtbauproduktionstechnologie (ZLP) Augsburg, Am Technologiezentrum 4, Augsburg, 86159, Deutschland

“What if… we set up a department in Augsburg to investigate the production technology of tomorrow?” This is how, on the afternoon of 12 January 2007, the idea for a centre dedicated to lightweight production technology was born at DLR.
Ten years ago, the first DLR researchers began their work in Augsburg, thanks to extensive funding from the Bavarian State Government – supported by the Bavarian State Ministry of Economic Affairs, Regional Development and Energy – and the City of Augsburg. In early 2009, it all started with three researchers in the rented premises of Sigmapark in Augsburg.
In cooperation with many partners, DLR created a research facility that is unique in Europe, with a robot platform only available in Augsburg. Today, almost 60 employees and students are shaping the future of automated lightweight production at the Center for Lightweight-Production-Technology (ZLP) on the grounds of the Augsburg Innovation Park.
On May 15, 2019, the Center for Lightweight-Production-Technology will host its 5th Colloquium on Production Technology. This year, the DLR Center also celebrates its 10th anniversary.
