Triple Graph Grammars (TGGs) are a visual, intuitive approach for specifying model transformations, allowing the automatic derivation of model management operations including forward/backward transformations and incremental synchronisation with guaranteed, desirable properties.
The conceptual simplicity of TGGs comes at a price, however, as all TGG tools impose substantial limits on practical expressiveness (measured by ease of specification, size, and readability in this paper), rendering TGGs unsuitable for real-world transformations and representing a major barrier to their mainstream adoption.
This paper discusses excerpts of model transformations that are exceedingly difficult (and perhaps even impossible) to specify using TGGs, analyses the underlying causes, and suggests suitable extensions of existing language features.
Our goal is to inspire research that improves the practical expressiveness of TGGs and facilitates applications of the approach.

This paper revisits the Families to Persons Case with a significant extension: concurrent model synchronization. Building on the original benchmark test cases, we introduce new tests for synchronizing models and resolving conflicts, thereby enhancing the framework's capability to benchmark bidirectional transformation tools under more realistic conditions. This advancement is crucial for assessing the tools' performance in concurrent engineering scenarios requiring data consistency across multiple models.

Fragt man, wie eine Umgebung auf Menschen wirkt, könnte man einerseits Eigenschaften dieser Umgebung beschreiben, oder andererseits untersuchen, wie Wahrnehmungseindrücke im Individuum entstehen. Bedeutung wird allerdings weder passiv registriert noch mental konstruiert. Nach Francisco Varela, Evan Thompson und Eleanor Rosch ist sie an tatsächliche und mögliche lebenserhaltende Aktivitäten eines Organismus gebunden. Lebewesen und Umwelt beziehen sich demnach wechselseitig aufeinander: Die Umwelt wird durch die Interaktionsmöglichkeiten und Bedürfnisse des Lebewesens bedingt; das Lebewesen wiederum organisiert sich durch die Begegnung mit dieser für ihn spezifischen Umwelt. Die Interaktion zwischen Mensch und Umwelt steht bei verschiedenen kognitionswissenschaftlichen und phänomenologischen Ansätzen im Fokus. Skizzenhaft betrachtet der folgende Text entsprechende Dynamiken. Einleitende Beispiele aus dem weit gefassten Bereich gestalteter Umgebungen dienen nicht nur als Einstiegspunkte, sondern bieten als gestalterische Erkundungen einen reichhaltigeren Zugang zu den verhandelten Phänomenen, als es dieser Text kann. Schließlich stellen sich Fragen – sowohl zur Erforschung als auch zur Gestaltung der Beziehung zwischen Mensch und Welt.

Rowhammer bit flips in DRAM enable software attackers to fully compromise a great variety of systems. Hardware mitigations can be precise and efficient but suffer from long deployment cycles and very limited or no update capabilities. Consequently, refined attack methods have repeatedly bypassed deployed hardware protections, repeatedly leaving commodity systems vulnerable to Rowhammer attacks.

In this paper, we present Memory Band-Aid, a principled defense-in-depth against Rowhammer. Memory Band-Aid is no replacement for long-term, efficient hardware mitigations but a defense-in-depth that is activated when hardware mitigations are discovered to be insufficient on a specific system generation. For this purpose, Memory Band-Aid introduces per-thread and per-bank rate limits for DRAM accesses in the memory controller, ensuring that the minimum number of row activations for Rowhammer bit flips cannot be reached. We implement a proof-of-concept of Memory Band-Aid on Ubuntu Linux and test it on 3 Intel and 3 AMD systems. In a micro-benchmark to cause DRAM pressure, we observe a slow down up to a factor of 5.2. In a collection of realistic Phoronix macro-benchmarks, we observe a low overhead of 0 % to 9.4 %. Both overheads only apply to untrusted throttled workloads, e.g., sandboxes, for instance in browsers. Especially as Memory Band-Aid can be enabled on demand, we conclude that Memory Band-Aid is an important defense-in-depth that should be deployed in practice as a second defense layer.

Rowhammer is a disturbance error in Dynamic Random-Access Memory (DRAM) that can be deliberately triggered from software by repeatedly reading, i. e., hammering, proximate memory locations in different DRAM rows. While numerous studies evaluated the Rowhammer effect, in particular how it can be triggered and how it can be exploited, most studies only use a small sample size of Dual In-line Memory Modules (DIMMs). Only few studies provided indication for the prevalence of the effect, with clear limitations to specific hardware configurations or FPGA-based experiments with precise control of the DIMM, limiting how far the results can be generalized.

In this paper, we perform the frist large-scale study of the Rowhammer effect involving 1 006 data sets from 822 systems. We measure Rowhammer prevalence in a fully automated crossplatform framework, FLIPKIT, using the available state-of-theart software-based DRAM and Rowhammer tools. Our framework automatically gathers information about the DRAM and uses 5 tools to reverse-engineer the DRAM addressing functions, and based on the reverse-engineered functions uses 7 tools to mount Rowhammer. We distributed the framework online and via USB thumb drives to thousands of participants from December 30, 2024, to June 30, 2025. Overall, we collected 1 006 datasets from systems with various CPUs, DRAM generations, and vendors. Our study reveals that out of 1 006 datasets, 453 (371 of the 822 unique systems) succeeded in the first stage of reverseengineering the DRAM addressing functions, indicating that successfully and reliably recovering DRAM addressing functions remains a significant open problem. In the second stage, 126 (12.5 % of all datasets) exhibited bit flips in our fully automated Rowhammer attacks. Our results show that fully-automated, i. e., weaponizable, Rowhammer attacks work on a lower share of systems than FPGA-based and lab experiments indicated but with 12.5 % enough to be a practical vector for threat actors. Furthermore, our results highlight that the two most pressing research challenges around Rowhammer exploitability are more reliable reverse-engineering addressing functions, as 50 % of datasets without bit flips failed in the DRAM reverse-engineering stage, and reliable Rowhammer attacks across diverse processor microarchitectures1, as only 12.5 % of datasets contained bit flips. Addressing each of these challenges could double the number of systems susceptible to Rowhammer and make Rowhammer a more pressing threat in real-world scenarios. 

The digital product passport is becoming an essential tool to increase transparency about the sustainability of products and to boost the circular economy in the European Union. With the revised Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation having entered into force in July 2024, the digital product passport will become a necessary extension for many products placed on the European market. Industry practitioners are faced with the challenge of fulfilling content requirements while maintaining interoperability at the same time. Although industry practitioners face challenges in implementing digital product passports, existing research has largely focused on digital product passport systems, often overlooking the crucial aspect of digital product passport data. Work on this data typically falls short of addressing comprehensive interoperability. This research therefore proposes a minimal digital product passport data model that integrates current regulatory requirements while ensuring interoperability through the use of standardised submodel templates of the asset administration shell. We demonstrate that the current regulatory requirements can be met, but foreseeable extensions will require adjustments and therefore close synchronisation between standardisation initiatives and the institutions that further specify regulatory requirements.

Selected Contributions: Sustainable Excellence—Economic, Social, and Environmental Issues presents a curated collection of peer-reviewed research papers presented at the 2nd Tunisian Symposium on Economics and Management (TSEM 2025), held in Tunisia from April 11 to 13, 2025. The symposium was organised by the Research Unit "Economy, Enterprise, Environment" (3E) at the Higher Institute of Management (ISG), University of Gabes.

This volume offers a multidisciplinary and innovative examination of the factors underpinning sustainable excellence amid contemporary global challenges. The contributions are organised around five core themes: first, the role of innovation as a critical driver of ecological transition; second, the transformation of labour markets and accompanying social dynamics necessary for a just transition; third, the design and evaluation of sustainable economic models; fourth, the synergistic effects of artificial intelligence (AI) and financial inclusion on progress toward the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs); and fifth, the significance of responsible managerial practices grounded in corporate social responsibility (CSR) and ethical governance.

Collectively, these contributions provide rigorous, timely insights into the interdependencies among economic, social, and environmental systems. This volume serves as an essential reference for academics, researchers, policymakers, and practitioners in the field.

The new Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (EU) 2024/1781 (ESPR) establishes a comprehensive legal framework within the EU that aims to make sustainable products the norm. It introduces measures such as ecodesign requirements, digital product passports, and physical labels, with the intention of encouraging sustainable choices and market surveillance. Textiles are among the first product groups to be targeted with these requirements due to their environmental impact, and an ongoing preparatory study is being conducted by the Joint Research Centre (JRC). This study at hand was commissioned by the German Environment Agency (UBA) and was conducted by the Oeko-Institut in collaboration with two universities of
applied sciences: the Hochschule Niederrhein and the Hochschule Hof. The study aims to support the development of ecodesign requirements for textiles and to explore how these requirements can be communicated effectively through an ecodesign label.

The study’s methodology included literature review, expert consultation, market analysis, and stakeholder workshops. The developed requirements relate to durability, repairability, recyclability, recycled content, and substances of concern. Three product examples were in the focus of the study: T-shirts, jeans and functional jackets.

This paper investigates the physiological responses of individuals driving both on a real
route and within a vehicle simulator designed as a digital twin of that route. The analysis
of observed data patterns in stress response bio signals provides sufficient evidence of
similarity to validating the driving simulation digital twin as a reliable replacement for
real-world experiences in controlled and consistent settings, or when overall trends of
physiological variables, rather than specific variable levels, are of interest. The findings also
stress the need for optimizing the precision of digital twins in complex settings. This study
introduces a time-series-based validation approach for driving digital twins by comparing
continuous physiological trajectories between real and simulated driving
