The future of mobility remains exciting: Rapid technological progress is opening up entirely new possibilities for the car of the future. Thanks to automated driving, we will be chauffeured from door to door in self-driving cars. Traffic jams, accidents and environmental damage could soon be a thing of the past. The realisation of this vision is approaching in leaps and bounds. RWTH Aachen University is actively helping to shape this mobility transformation.
RWTHjupyter enters pilot phase
We already presented the test operation of the JupyterHub at RWTH Aachen University a few weeks ago on the IT Center Blog. So far, the JupyterHub cluster has only been in the test phase. Now it will grow into a new service! For this purpose, the service with the beautiful name “RWTHjupyter” will enter the pilot phase on February 22, 2021.
At the start of the pilot phase, we’ll give you a closer look at what RWTHjupyter can do and where the seemingly unusual name comes from.

Welcome to RWTHjupyter!

5G – Using frequencies – Overview of regulation
Electromagnetic waves are suitable for the wireless transmission of signals in a limited frequency range. To ensure efficient use of this finite resource, international harmonisation agreements are made. At the national level, allocations to specific radio services are made in the Frequency Ordinance.
Frequencies can be allocated to the general public, service operators (e.g. Deutsche Telekom) and private users (e.g. RWTH Aachen University). This allocation takes place upon application to the Federal Network Agency. It regulates and determines the allocation modalities. On the one hand, this creates the greatest possible flexibility for the use of the frequencies, and on the other hand, attention is paid to possible interference in the joint use of a frequency by other users.
5G – The new mobile communications technology
The new mobile communications standard 5G is playing an increasingly important role worldwide – including here at RWTH Aachen University. And that’s why, as of today, we’re dedicating a small series to the topic every Friday, providing background information, technical info and an outlook for the future.

RWTH Aachen University expands its activities in the field of artificial intelligence
In the context of the Excellence Initiative, RWTH Aachen University has procured two powerful systems for complex experiments and analyses in the field of artificial intelligence (AI). On July 10th, two NVIDIA DGX-2 systems were delivered to the IT Center, which were then installed and integrated into the RWTH cluster environment on July 15th.
