Die Bedeutung von Social Software (SSW) nimmt nicht nur im Privatleben vieler Menschen zu. Auch Unternehmen haben mittlerweile die Potentiale dieser Systeme erkannt und setzen vermehrt auf Web 2.0 Technologien basierende Systeme im Unternehmenskontext ein. So brachte eine Studie der Association for Information and Image Management (AIIM) im Jahr 2009 hervor, dass über 50 % der Befragten Enterprise 2.0 (E2.0), d.h. der Einsatz von SSW im Unternehmen, als kritischen Faktor des Unternehmenserfolges ansahen. Auch durch diesen Trend mit verursacht stieg, laut einer Studie des Beratungsunternehmens IDC, die Menge an digital verfügbaren Informationen innerhalb einer Zeitspanne von fünf Jahren (2006-2011) um den Faktor zehn. Wo früher galt, "Je mehr Information, desto besser.", bereitet heute das Managen dieser schieren Flut an Informationen vielen Unternehmen Probleme (bspw. in Bezug auf die Auffindbarkeit von Informationen). SSW bietet mit neuen Funktionen, wie Social Bookmarking, Wikis oder Tags, das Potential, Informationen durch Nutzerbeteiligung besser zu strukturieren und zu organisieren. In der vorliegenden Arbeit wird am Beispiel der Forschungsgruppe für Betriebliche Anwendungssysteme (FG BAS) gezeigt, wie man vorhandene Informationsstrukturen erfassen, analysieren und darauf basierend Empfehlungen für den Einsatz von SSW herleiten kann. Den Rahmen für dieses Vorgehen bildet ein von Henczel (2000) entwickeltes Modell zur Durchführung eines Information Audits. Hervorzuhebende Ergebnisse der Arbeit stellen zum Einen das Erfassungsmodell für Informationen und Prozesse dar (Informationsmatrix) und zum Anderen das Visualisierungsmodell der erfassten Daten.
Augmented Reality (AR) is getting more and more popular. To augment information into the field of vision of the user using HMDs, e.g. front shields of a car, glasses, displays of a smartphone or tablets are the main use of AR technology. It is necessary to get the position and orientation (pose) of the camera in space to augment correctly.
Nowadays, this is solved with artificial markers. These known markers are placed in the room and the system is taught to this set up. The next step is to get rid of these artificial markers. If we are calculating the pose without such markers we are talking about marker-less tracking. Instead of artificial markers we will use natural objects in the real world as reference points to calculate the pose. Thus, this approach can be used flexibly and dynamically. We are no longer dependent on artificial markers but we need much more knowledge about the scenery to find the pose. This is compensated by technical actions and/or the user himself. However, both solutions are neither comfortable nor efficient for the usage of such a system. This is why marker-less 3D tracking is still a big field of research.
This sets the starting point for the bachelor thesis. In this thesis an approach is proposed that needs only a quantity of 2D Feature from a given camera image and a quantity of 3D Feature of an object to find the initial Pose. With this approach, we got rid of the technical and user assistance. 2D and 3D Features can be detected in any way you like.
The main idea of this approach is to build six correspondences between these quantities. With those we are able to estimate the pose. Each 3D Feature is mapped with the estimated pose onto image coordinates, whereby the estimated pose can be evaluated. Each distance is measured between the mapped 3D Feature and the associated 2D Feature. Each correspondency is evaluated and the results are summed up to evaluate the whole pose. The lower this summed up value is, the better the pose. It has been shown to have a correct pose with a value around ten pixels.
Due to lots of possibilities to build six correspondences between the quantities, it is necessary to optimize the building process. For the optimization we will use a genetic algorithm.
During the test case the system worked quite reliably. The hit rate was around 90% with a runtime of approximately twelve minutes. Without optimization it can take easily some years.
Autonomous systems such as robots already are part of our daily life. In contrast to these machines, humans an react appropriately to their counterparts. People can hear and interpret human speech, and interpret facial expressions of other people.
This thesis presents a system for automatic facial expression recognition with emotion mapping. The system is image-based and employs feature-based feature extraction. This thesis analyzes the common steps of an emotion recognition system and presents state-of-the-art methods. The approach presented is based on 2D features. These features are detected in the face. No neutral face is needed as reference. The system extracts two types of facial parameters. The first type consists of distances between the feature points. The second type comprises angles between lines connecting the feature points. Both types of parameters are implemented and tested. The parameters which provide the best results for expression recognition are used to compare the system with state-of-the-art approaches. A multiclass Support Vector Machine classifies the parameters.
The results are codes of Action Units of the Facial Action Coding System. These codes are mapped to a facial emotion. This thesis addresses the six basic emotions (happy, surprised, sad, fearful, angry, and disgusted) plus the neutral facial expression. The system presented is implemented in C++ and is provided with an interface to the Robot Operating System (ROS).
The purpose of this bachelor- thesis is to teach Lisa - a robot of the university of Koblenz- AGAS department developed for participation in the @home league of the RoboCup - to draw. This requires the expansion of the robbie software framework and the operation of the robot- hardware components. Under consideration of a possible entry in the Open Challenge of the @home RoboCup, the goals are to detect a sheet of paper using Lisa- visual sensor, a Microsoft Kinect and draw on it using her Neuronics Katana robot arm. In addition, a pen mounting for the arm- gripper has to be constructed.
Outlined within this thesis are the procedures utilized to convert an image template into movement of the robotic arm, which in turn leads to drawing of a painting by the pen attached to the arm on a piece of paper detected by the visual sensor through image processing. Achieved were the parsing and drawing of an object made up of an indefinite amount of straight lines from a SVG-file onto a white sheet of paper, detected on a slightly darker surface and surrounded by various background objects or textures.
Customization is a phenomenon which was introduced quite early in information systems literature. As the need for customized information technology is rising, different types of customization have emerged. In this study, customization processes in information systems are analyzed from a perspective based on the concept of open innovation. The objective is to identify how customization of information systems can be performed in an open innovation context. The concept of open innovation distinguishes three processes: Outside-in process, inside-out process and coupled process. After categorizing the selected journals into three core processes, the findings of this analysis indicated that there is a major concentration on outside-in processes. Further research on customization in coupled and inside-out processes is recommended. In addition, the establishment of an extensive up-to-date definition of customization in information systems is suggested.
Geschäftsprozessmanagement (GPM) gilt in der heutigen Unternehmensentwicklung als einer der wichtigsten Erfolgsfaktoren und wird von modernen Unternehmen auch als solcher wahrgenommen [vgl. IDS Scheer 2008]. Bereits 1993 waren Geschäftsprozesse für Hammer und Champy der zentrale Schlüssel zur Reorganisation von Unternehmen [vgl. Hammer, Champy 1993, S. 35]. Den Paradigmenwechsel von der Aufbau- zur Ablauforganisation und letztendlich zur etablierten "Prozessorganisation" wurde von Gaitanides schon 1983 erstmals beschrieben [vgl. Gaitanides 2007].
Trotz einer breiten und tiefen Behandlung des Themengebiets "Geschäftsprozessmanagement" in der wissenschaftlichen Literatur, gestaltet es sich schwierig, einen schnellen Überblick in Bezug auf Vorgehensweisen zur Einführung von Geschäftsprozessmanagement zu erhalten. Dies ist im Wesentlichen der Tatsache geschuldet, dass in der Literatur "Geschäftsprozessmanagement" in unterschiedlichen wissenschaftlichen Bereichen wie z.B. der Organisationslehre [vgl. z.B. Vahs 2009; Schulte-Zurhausen 2005], der Betriebswirtschaft [vgl. z.B. Helbig 2003; Schmidt 2012] oder der Informatik bzw. Wirtschaftsinformatik [vgl. z.B. Schmelzer, Sesselmann 2008; Schwickert, Fischer 1996] behandelt und der Aufbau eines GPMs anhand unterschiedlicher Themenschwerpunkte beschrieben wird. Insbesondere gestaltet sich die Suche nach Literatur zu Geschäftsprozessmanagement speziell für kleine und mittlere Unternehmen (KMU) und zu Einführungsmethoden von BPM in KMU als schwierig. Die Kombination "Vorgehensweisen zur Einführung von Geschäftsprozessmanagement bei KMU" ist in der wissenschaftlichen Literatur nicht aufzufinden. Mit der vorliegenden Arbeit soll ein erster Ansatz geschaffen werden, diese Lücke zu schließen. Diese Arbeit zielt darauf ab, anhand einer Auswahl von Vorgehensweisen zur Einführung von Geschäftsprozessmanagement deren charakteristische Eigenschaften zu analysieren und einander gegenüberzustellen. Zudem erfolgt eine Bewertung auf die Anwendbarkeit einzelner Vorgehensweisen auf kleine und mittlere Unternehmen anhand zuvor erhobener, für KMU wichtiger Anforderungen an BPM und dessen Einführung.
Auf Basis der dieser Arbeit zugrundeliegenden Bewertungskriterien schneidet die Vorgehensweise nach Schulte-Zurhausen im Gesamtergebnis am besten ab. Dennoch ist festzustellen, dass jede der untersuchten Vorgehensweisen Stärken und Schwächen bzgl. der Eignung für ein KMU aufweist. Dies hat zur Folge, dass bei der Einführung eines Geschäftsprozessmanagements jede der untersuchten Vorgehensweisen einer Anpassung und Adaption auf die Situation eines KMUs bedarf. Aus diesem Grund empfiehlt der Autor dieser Arbeit einem KMU, eine Vorgehensweise als grundlegende Vorgehensweise der Einführung festzulegen (in diesem Fall die Vorgehensweise nach Schulte-Zurhausen) und diese durch jeweils geeignete Aspekte der weiteren Vorgehensweisen anzureichern bzw. zu vervollständigen.
Due to the increasing pervasiveness of the mobile web, it is possible to send and receive mails with mobile devices. Content of digital communication should be encrypted to prevent eavesdropping and manipulation. Corresponding procedures use cryptographic keys, which have to be exchange previously. It has to be ensured, that a cryptographic key really belongs to the person, who it is supposedly assigned to. Within the scope of this thesis a concept for a smartphone application to exchange cryptographic keys was designed. The concept consists of a specification of a component-based framework, which can be used to securely exchange data in general. This framework was extended and used as the basis for a smartphone application. The application allows creating, managing and exchanging cryptographic keys. The Near Field Communication is used for the exchange. Implemented security measures prevent eavesdropping and specific manipulation. In the future the concept and the application can be extended and adjusted to be used in other contexts.
The goal of this Bachelor thesis was programming an existig six-legged robot, which should be able to explore any environment and create a map of it autonomous. A laser scanner is to be integrated for cognition of this environment. To build the map and locate the robot a suitable SLAM(Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) technique will be connected to the sensor data. The map is reported to be the robots base of path planning and obstancle avoiding, what will be developed in the scope of the bachelor thesis, too. Therefore both GMapping and Hector SLAM will be implemented and tested.
An exploration algorithm is described in this bachelor thesis for exploring the robots environment. The implementation on the robot takes place in the space of ROS(Robot Operating System) framework on a "Raspberry Pi" miniature PC.

Recipients" youtube comments to the five most successful songs of 2011 and 2012 are tested for nostalgic content. These nostalgic relevant comments are analyzed by content and finally interpreted. It shall be found out, whether nostalgic music content is a factor for success. By using the uses and gratifications theory the recipients" purpose of consuming nostalgic-evoking music will be identified. Music is a clearly stronger trigger for evoking nostalgia than the music video whereas nostalgia triggers positive and/or negative affect. Furthermore personal nostalgia is much more evident than historical nostalgia. Moreover the lyrics have a considerably higher potential to elicit nostalgia than any other song units. Persons and momentous events are the most frequent objects in personal nostalgic reverie. The purpose of consuming nostalgic music is the intended evocation of positive and/or negative affect. Hence nostalgia in music seems to satisfy certain needs and it can be assumed that nostalgia is a factor of success in music industry.
The advantage of virtual networks is to test routing-algorithms or distributed software in an easy-to-use, cheap and well-arranged way. Optimized Link State Routing (OLSR) and Babel are two modern routing-algorithms for mobile ad-hoc networks that distinguish faulty links from good link connections in their routing process. Typically virtual networks provide nearly perfect link connections without any network traffic disruptions. The Traffic Control (tc) tool is able to manipulate connections in terms of delay and packet loss.
In this bachelor thesis virtual network scenarios are created with VNUML and Qemu and manipulated with tc in order to analyze the behavior of ad-hoc routing algorithms like Babel and OLSR. The behavior of well-known TCP congestion control algorithms, e.g., TCP Vegas and TCP Reno are analyzed, too.
The principles of project management are due to the influences of economic conditions and technological development in transition [Wills 1998 & Jonsson et al. 2001]. The increasing in-ternationalization, shortened time to market, changing labor costs and the increasing involve-ment of professionals distributed geographical locations are drivers of the transformations of the project landscape [Evaristo/van Fenema 1999]. Resulting from this, the use of collabora-tive technologies is a crucial factor for the success of a project. [Romano et al. 2002]. Previous research on the use of collaborative technologies for project management purposes focuses especially the development of model-like, universal system architectures to identify the requirements for a specially designed collaborative project management system. This thesis investigates the challenges and benefits that arise when an organisation imple-ments business software for the purpose of collaborative project management.
Within the scope of this bachelor thesis, a survey targeting the alumni of the Department 4: Computer Science of the University of Koblenz-Landau was planned, realized and evaluated. The goal was to support the Task Force Bachelor Master that was in charge of the re-accreditation process of the study courses. At first, the theoretical fundament of the survey design was acquired via desk research. Moreover, the analysis of past surveys of similar character lead to getting an impression of the requirements. Under consideration of recent changes, a survey prototype was created and improved following the insights from a pre-test. Using the open source tool LimeSurvey, the final version was implemented. The platform was used as the technical basis of the survey. The recipients included members of alumni clubs as well as recent alumni from the last years.
The survey lead to insights about the satisfaction of the alumni with their study course and the study situation in general. Furthermore, the opinion regarding two new master courses, E-Government and Web Science, was requested. The feedback from four of the study courses was enough to give significant results, for the other five courses it was only possible to interpret the general statements. All in all, there was a high rate of satisfaction with the studies.
Additionally, it was possible to collect suggestions for improvements and criticism. The main topics were internationality, emphasis on study topics, freedom of choice/specialization and relevancy to practice. As a result of the survey, a recommendation was verbalized, that should lead to an improvement in quality and need of the teaching in the Department 4: Computer Science in combination with the detailed results.
Especially e-government projects have a complex stakeholder structure: governments, businesses, non-profits and private stakeholders in different forms and roles are involved or affected by e-government projects. Consequently, the success of ICT projects critically depends on the integration of different stakeholder groups in the design processes of e-government solutions. In this context, stakeholder participation is sought therefore useful initiatives like open government and good governance drive this process forward. Although it is important to analyze the objectives, expectations and power characteristics of project participants and project stakeholders, the determinations of the stakeholder groups through a so called stakeholder analysis are insufficiently methodically developed.
The aim of this bachelor thesis is to pick up the stakeholder theories, stakeholder participation theories, stakeholder analysis and transfer it to an administrative level as well as to check their applicability. This will be done by explaining and systematizing appropriate procedures for the classification and mapping of stakeholder groups, through well-known stakeholder theories of Freeman, Mitchel and Rowley. In order to generate recommendations for future e-government projects, the application of stakeholder theories in two e-government projects with stakeholder involvement will be reviewed. It is also important to work out how stakeholder groups can be actively involved in the developmental processes in concrete e-government projects by using Web 2.0 possibilities. The role of Web 2.0 applications as an additional channel of communication and participation tool will be presented and evaluated.
The result is a guide, which supports successful participation of stakeholders in projects, by analyzing the process for stakeholder identification, stakeholder grouping and prioritization and showing instructions and benefits for using Web 2.0.
Die wesentliche Zielsetzung der Bachelor-Arbeit war es, entlang der Anforderungen an DMS/WMS aus dem DOMEA-Konzept und aus dem Kommunalen Gebietsrechenzentrum Koblenz (KGRZ) verschiedene Systeme zu evaluieren. Weiteres Ziel war es, ein System, das die Anforderungen am besten erfüllt, zu identifizieren. Entlang der Evaluation wurde exemplarisch der Workflow des KGRZ untersucht, bewertet und ggf. angepasst. Des Weiteren wurde auf die Frage eingegangen, ob ein einheitliches System im Rahmen des Föderalismus nicht nur in Koblenz sondern auch Rheinland-Pfalz weit eingesetzt werden kann, oder ob ämterspezifische Lösungen vorteilhafter sind.
Procedural content generation, the generation of video game content using pseudo-random algorithms, is a field of increasing business and academic interest due to its suitability for reducing development time and cost as well as the possibility of creating interesting, unique game spaces. Although many contemporary games feature procedurally generated content, the author perceived a lack of games using this approach to create realistic outer-space game environments, and the feasibility of employing procedural content generations in such a game was examined. Using current scientific models, a real-time astronomical simulation was developed in Python which generates star and planets object in a fictional galaxy procedurally to serve as the game space of a simple 2D space exploration game where the player has to search for intelligent life.
This thesis addresses the implementation of a particle simulation of an explosion. The simulation will be displayed via ray tracing in near real time. The implementation makes use of the openCL standard. The focus of research in this thesis is to analyse the performance of this combination of components.
This paper critically examines the Google Calendar. For this purpose, the offered functions of the core product are studied on privacy aspects. On one hand, it is identified, to which extent the product could infringe the users" privacy, on the other accuring risks are discussed. Furthermore, the functions in terms of their use for both, the service provider Google and for the user, are considered. A detailed analysis demonstrates the critical aspects, in which we have to decide between privacy and functionality. The identified solutions to minimize discussed risks of IT security mechanisms, are presented, discussed and analyzed in terms of their feasibility. Afterwards the individual solutions are summarized in a security concept and other requirements are explained. Finally, a Firefox-Addon which implements the described solution concept should be created, to resolve the existing weaknesses to the best of its ability. Ultimately, the functionality of the addon with technical implementation is illustrated in detail.
