abstract = {Wireless localization is a crucial technology for determining the spatial 

position of nodes within a wireless network, with applications ranging from 

indoor navigation to asset tracking and robotic movement. However, 

traditional localization methods often rely on specialized hardware, while 

other localization methods suitable for commodity hardware tend to have 

limited accuracy. To improve localization accuracy, we propose models that 

integrate machine learning (ML) techniques for distance and position 

estimation. We observe improved localization performance by incorporating 

not only signal strength indicators from the physical layer, but also 

features specific to the mesh link layer of wireless mesh networks as model 

inputs. Furthermore, a proposed end-to-end machine learning localization 

model demonstrates promising performance by leveraging diverse network 

features for the direct inference of node position estimates. 

We evaluate the models using experimental data from a measurement campaign 

we conducted in an office environment hosting a wireless mesh testbed. Our 

method achieves an absolute position error of less than two meters. Using 

both information specific to mesh networks and novel machine learning 

methods yields improved performance, making our approach a promising 

solution for industrial applications.},

abstract = {Cloud Computing has been widely adopted in industry, administrations, as well as research. At the same time, development and testing of new technologies is troubled by inconsistent environments. Exchanging modules of a system during research becomes a major obstacle. As a result, baselines for comparisons are lacking, and evaluating new developments may lead to heavy time cost. Big industrial players typically circumvent this problem by relying on the scale of their datacenters, experiments, and problems, which makes them inherently interesting. 

We propose a softwarised testbed that abstracts away inevitable hardware differences. Its design closely follows the established philosophy to separate workloads and declare expressive interfaces between them. The result is a coherent testbed, consisting of interchangeable, but state of the art, components. It establishes Experiment-as-Code, where an experiment is declared to load generators programmatically. In sum, the testbed yields reproducible results. We verify networking, computational and interacting components by reproducing known results. We illustrate one use case of scaling under uncertainty the applicability for research. The whole system is hosted on-premise, with minimal hardware requirements, which enables especially academia to contribute. The low-effort in setup also allows handover to students and staff with the goal to ensure knowledge transfer.},
