University and Other Docs

Since Fall 2002 I have been studying electronic engineering at the University of Stuttgart I am now specializing in control- and automationtechnology with the focus on software engineering. Here you will find useful information like formula collections, or other documents I wrote during my studies.

For “Hochfrequenztechnik” or radio frequency technology in english I wrote this summary of RF-formulas (pdf). The LaTeX source also has nice examples how to draw a smith chart RF-Formulas (TeX). When processing it you won’t see much in the .dvi file because the Smith chart is added through “PS-tricks”. Therefore you have to convert the .dvi into a postscript using dvips.

I guess the first LaTeX document I once wrote, is a this Emacs Primer (pdf). I just wrote it do get to know LaTex, and of course not to forget all the fancy commands Emacs offers. As I believe in Open Source, you can also download the LaTeX Source of Emacs Primer (TeX).

Studienarbeit (pdf) This is a minor theses every electronic engineering student has to write during his studies. Its a stripped down Master theses but you gain no title with it. its just part of your studies. I did mine on security of embedded systems during my stay in Brazil. Unfortunately the syleguide of the IAS the institute where I did this theses, required me to use Microsoft Office tools. So ther is no nice LaTeX version of it.

Diplomarbeit (pdf) This is more or less a german version of a Master theses. The main topic was to implement some cryptographic algorithms on a FPGA and integrate drives into an existing “Security Framework” Software. Unfortunately the syleguide of the IAS the institute where I did this theses, required me to use Microsoft Office tools. So ther is no nice LaTeX version of it. Now, one year later I have started to review and improve some code honestly I am ashamed of the VHDL of the very first implementations I wrote in the thesis.


Coursera Data Visualization

Coursera Data Visualization

I highly recommend for everybody who has data to plot or present

After the fun experience of participating in the EdX course Introduction into Computer Science I opted for another course, this time on Coursera. Data Visualization by Prof. John C. Hart This page only exists to share my Homework with other students for grading. The homework is peer-graded and because of the honor-code I cannot publish source code that generated the images. I used Python 2.7 with NumPy and Matplotlib to analyze and plot the data.
