Insights from Publishing Open Data in Industry-Academia Collaboration

Effective data management and sharing are critical success factors in industry-academia collaboration. This paper explores the motivations and lessons learned from publishing open data sets in such collaborations. Through a survey of participants in a European research project that published 13 data sets, and an analysis of metadata from almost 281 thousand datasets in Zenodo, we collected qualitative and quantitative results on motivations, achievements, research questions, licences and file types. Through inductive reasoning and statistical analysis we found that planning the data collection is essential, and that only few datasets (2.4%) had accompanying scripts for improved reuse. We also found that authors are not well aware of the importance of licences or which licence to choose. Finally, we found that data with a synthetic origin, collected with simulations and potentially mixed with real measurements, can be very meaningful, as predicted by Gartner and illustrated by many datasets collected in our research project.

Trustworthiness for an Ultra-Wideband Localization Service

Trustworthiness assessment is an essential step to assure that interdependent systems perform critical functions as anticipated, even under adverse conditions. In this paper, a holistic trustworthiness assessment framework for ultra-wideband self-localization is proposed, including attributes of reliability, security, privacy, and resilience. Our goal is to provide guidance for evaluating a system's trustworthiness based on objective evidence, so-called trustworthiness indicators. These indicators are carefully selected through the threat analysis of the particular system. Our approach guarantees that the resulting trustworthiness indicators correspond to chosen real-world threats. Moreover, experimental evaluations are conducted to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method. While the framework is tailored for this specific use case, the process itself serves as a versatile template, which can be used in other applications in the domains of the Internet of Things or cyber-physical systems.

Distance Estimation for BLE-based Contact Tracing -- A Measurement Study

Mobile contact tracing apps are -- in principle -- a perfect aid to condemn the human-to-human spread of an infectious disease such as COVID-19 due to the wide use of smartphones worldwide. Yet, the unknown accuracy of contact estimation by wireless technologies hinders the broader use. We address this challenge by conducting a measurement study with a custom testbed to show the capabilities and limitations of Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) in different scenarios. Distance estimation is based on interpreting the signal pathloss with a basic linear and a logarithmic model. Further, we compare our results with accurate ultra-wideband (UWB) distance measurements. While the results indicate that distance estimation by BLE is not accurate enough, a contact detector can detect contacts below 2.5 m with a true positive rate of 0.65 for the logarithmic and of 0.54 for the linear model. Further, the measurements reveal that multi-path signal propagation reduces the effect of body shielding and thus increases detection accuracy in indoor scenarios.
