This examination broaches the issue of an investigation that is supported by the eye-tracking technologie and uses the e-learn-system Compass. For this investigation, there was carried out an experiment to test participants if they recognize agreement errors in the subjekt-verb- congruence in german sentences. The idea for that came from an other survey, that was hold for the englisch language. The integration of the e-learn-system Compass intended the observation of the participants learning behaviour. The experiment was able to be evaluated and analysed by the software of the eye-tracker, that recorded all eye movements and created valuable data out of them. It was assumed to catch the participants eye movements such as fixations or regressions.
The result was very clear: errors in congruence betweet subject and verb were done often. Besides, the error-rate increases proportionally to the length of the sentence.
Virtueller Dirigent
(2016)
Ihm Rahmen einer Bachelorarbeit wurde eine "Virtual Reality"-Anwendung entwickelt. Ein Benuzter erhält die Möglichkeit die Rolle eines Dirigenten zu übernehmen und ein virtuelles Orchester zu leiten. Die Leitung erfolgt mit Hilfe von Handgesten. Mithilfe einer Evaluation der Anwendung wurden allgemeine Anforderungen an "Virtual Reality"-Spiele festgehalten.
Der natürliche Prozess der Verwitterung ist ein komplexer Vorgang, der von unterschiedlichsten Parametern beeinflusstwird. Hauptbestandteil dieses Prozesses ist das Zusammenziehen des Fruchtvolumens infolge von Wasserverlust durch Transpiration sowie die Veränderung der Fruchtfarbe und Oberfläche. Es wurden bereits Verfahren entwickelt, die diese Eigenschaften mit Hilfe von Parametrisierung sowie physikalischer Ansätze simulieren. Die in dieser Arbeit erstellte Anwendung simuliert das Fruchtfleisch durch ein Tetraedernetz und die Veränderung der Haut mit Hilfe von dynamischer Texturanpassung. Der entwickelte Algorithmus arbeitet in linearer Laufzeit und seine Ergebnisse werden anhand selbst erstellter Fruchtmodelle präsentiert.
We are entering the 26th year from the time the World Wide Web (WWW) became reality. Since the birth of the WWW in 1990, the Internet and therewith websites have changed the way businesses compete, shifting products, services and even entire markets.
Therewith, gathering and analysing visitor traffic on websites can provide crucial information to un- derstand customer behavior and numerous other aspects.
Web Analytics (WA) tools offer a quantity of diverse functionality, which calls for complex decision- making in information management. Website operators implement Web Analytic tools such as Google Analytics to analyse their website for the purpose of identifying web usage to optimise website design and management. The gathered data leads to emergent knowledge, which provides new marketing opportunities and can be used to improve business processes and understand customer behavior to increase profit. Moreover, Web Analytics plays a significant role to measure performance and has therefore become an important component in web-based environments to make business decisions.
However, many small and medium –sized enterprises try to keep up with the web business competi- tion, but do not have the equivalent resources in manpower and knowledge to stand the pace, there- fore some even resign entirely on Web Analytics.
This research project aims to develop a Web Analytics framework to assist small and medium-sized enterprises in making better use of Web Analytics. By identifying business requirements of SMEs and connecting them to the functionality of Google Analytics, a Web Analytics framework with attending guidelines is developed, which guides SMEs on how to proceed in using Google Analytics to achieve actionable outcomes.
How entrepreneurs become successful with their business ideas has been a topic of discussion within entrepreneurial research circles for many years. Business success has been related to psychological characteristics and many research findings have explained how people become entrepreneurs and furthermore, how they find success in regards to their business ventures. People always wanted to know what defines an entrepreneur and more importantly, what is needed to become a successful entrepreneur. Curious minds began to search for the recipe for success. Personality Traits have been researched for years, leading to the discovery of many diverse and distinct forms which are still recognized today. Researchers compared the Behavioral Approach or the analysis of demographical characteristics to success.
This raises the question of what an entrepreneur needs to become successful which is made more difficult due to the fact that entrepreneurship and who an entrepreneur is can be difficult do define exactly. Entrepreneurs are diverse and distinct individuals that each possess their own characteristics, behavior and reasons for starting a business. Many people assume that it is just someone who starts their own business. While partially correct, this only scratches the surface of what it is to be an entrepreneur.
This thesis answers the following three research questions: 1. Which personality traits were found in the almost sixty years of researching? 2. What triggers do entrepreneurs need for starting a new business? 3. Which factor makes the entrepreneur successful with their business idea? Also, reading the thesis, one may gain a better understanding of what entrepreneurship is, what defines an entrepreneur and what one needs to become a successful entrepreneur.
In this thesis the reviewing literature method developed by Wolfswinkel et al. (2011) was used to identify suitable literature and references for the main chapters. For that the five stages of the grounded-theory method for reviewing the literature were used in an iterative fashion. In step one inclusion and exclusion criterias for literature were defined. Then literature was searched matching the criterias of step one. In step three the samples were refined. Then in step four the found literature was analyzed and coded before the results of this research was presented in the following text. Many entrepreneurial personality traits were discovered and confirmed during the studies conducted over the last sixty years, these include but are not limited to Need for Achievement, Locus of Control, or risk taking propensity. Motivation is clearly the main trigger to start your own business. During the studies reasons were discovered of how and why an entrepreneur may become successful outside of posessing the right combination of traits. For example: having human, financial and social capital, an entrepreneurial behavior and the right economic conditions to start a business that will survive for more than five years.
This thesis presents an approach to optimizing the computation of soft shadows from area lights. The light source is sampled uniformly by traversing shadow rays as packets through an N-tree. This data structure stores an additional line space for every node. A line space stores precomputed information about geometry inside of shafts from one to another side of the node. This visibility information is used to terminate a ray. Additionally the graphics processing unit (short GPU) is used to speed up the computations through parallelism. The scene is rendered with OpenGL and the shadow value is computed on the GPU for each pixel. Evaluating the implementation shows a performance gain of 86% by comparison to the CPU, if using the GPU implementation. Using the line space instead of triangle intersections also increases the performance. The implementation provides good scaling with an increasing amount of triangles and has no visual disadvantages for many rays.

This thesis is providing an overview over the current topics and influences of mobile components on Enterprise Content Management (ECM). With a literature review the core topics of enterprise mobility and ECM have been identified and projected on the context of using mobile Apps within the environment of ECM. An analysis of three ECM systems and their mobile software lead to an understanding of the functionalities and capabilities mobile systems are providing in the ECM environment. These findings lead to a better un- derstanding for the usage of mobile Enterprise Content Management and is preparation. The thesis focuses the most important topics, which need to be considered for the usage and adoption of mobile Apps in ECM.
A special challenge of the basic musical education of children is to give them an understanding of reading and writing musical scores. During the training of young choristers it is furthermore important to educate them in directly transforming the written scores into sounds.
Therefore it is an interesting idea to play the sounds to the children via piano or keyboard and simultaneously present them on a screen in musical notation.
The aim of this bachelor thesis is the implementation of such a system that allows to enter scores using a MIDI-compatible keyboard and then depicting these as musical notation. The prototype of the application operates in three steps. It receives the musical scores via keyboard in form of MIDIdatasets. These MIDI-information are converted to the MusicXML-format. Based on this MusicXML-notation the software finally generates and displays the visual output.
Die folgende Arbeit zeigt eine Möglichkeit auf, Lokalisierung eines Objektes mittels Ultraschall zu realisieren. Dazu werden drei bis fünf im Raum verteilte Sensoren genutzt, um anhand von Distanzinformationen die Position eines Objekts relativ zu den Positionen der Sensoren zu bestimmen. Eine Besonderheit besteht dabei darin, dass die Sensoren nahezu beliebig in der Ebene verteilt sein können. Ihre Anordnung wird vom System in der Kalibrierungsphase mit Unterstützung des Anwenders ermittelt. Dabei dürften ein gleichseitiges Dreieck, ein Quadrat oder Pentagramm je nach Sensoranzahl die besten Ergebnisse liefern. Um die relative Bewegung in eine Absolute zu übertragen, findet eine Umrechnung in Meter anhand der Taktung der Mikrocontroller, des Prescalers des verwendeten Timers und der Schallgeschwindigkeit statt.
