Their contribution deals with the complex coordination of mixed fleets of autonomous and human-operated vehicles. In their work, they developed an event-based architecture and discussed how this can be mapped in various modeling languages, such as BPMN, IEC 61499 and SysML. Which language is the best? “It depends,” answers Bianca. ”None is perfect for our use case, but hopefully everyone can implement the approach with their favorite language based on the concepts and examples described.”

“I am happy that this paper was honored, as it shows how well scientific collaborations work. David visited us for a month and worked with our team,” adds Alois about the successful cooperation with Tampere University, opens an external URL in a new window.
