Poster: Web Dependency Analyzer to Identify Resource Dependencies and their Impact on Rendering.Alhamwy, Yasin; Mertens, Paul; Hohlfeld, Oliver. In Proceedings of the 2024 ACM on Internet Measurement Conference, von IMC ’24, S. 793–794. Association for Computing Machinery, Madrid, Spain, 2024.

Modern websites are complex and fetch content from a multitude of different servers or domains. When measuring the complexity of the modern web, an open question is how content that is fetched from these domains contribute to the rendered output of the website. In this poster, we present the Web Dependency Analyzer, a tool that is designed to automatically infer the domains that a website depends on and further analyze the impact of each domain on the rendered output of the site. Our Web Dependency Analyzer instructs a headless web browser to infer the resource dependencies from a large set of input domains and outputs the visual impact of the unavailability of each domain.

Persistent UAV Formation Flight by Dynamic Agent Replacement and Leader Selection.Bauer, Maximilian; Alhamwy, Yasin; Geihs, Kurt. In Progressive and Integrative Ideas and Applications of Engineering Systems Under the Framework of IOT and AI, Y. Ma (Hrsg.), S. 106–117. Springer Nature Singapore, Singapore, 2023.

- [ URL ]
First responders use Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) in disaster response to obtain a situational overview. Flying in a formation has the advantage of having multiple airborne sensors and cameras. However, UAV formations are limited in terms of flight time. In this paper we present a system that is capable of achieving persistent formation flight. The system does not need a central coordination unit and is self-organizing by triggering UAVs on the ground to take-off and join the formation whenever a UAV in the formation is about to run out of battery. The replacement process allows the formation to be kept intact for as long as possible. Onboard each UAV, the flight controller handles the formation-keeping and trajectory following while a higher level multi-agent-coordination unit accesses the flight controller to send commands. The leader-follower formation is designed to be rigid and independent of the number of UAVs present in the formation. A prototype consisting of four simulated UAVs was implemented as a proof of concept, which worked as expected.
