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.
The measurement of the benefits of collaborative technologies is a challenge caused by sociological influences on these systems. In this work, the introduction of a collaborative system into an existing IT environment is examined, so that a value can be identified for the company. The analysis of frameworks has shown that the benefits can be reaped through better management and organization of in-company resources and optimization of the underlying process.
Cloud-Computing ist aktuell ein besonderer Trend in der IT-Branche. ERP-Systeme sind in den heutigen Unternehmen ebenfalls nicht mehr wegzudenken. Durch die Analyse ausgewählter Literatur wird aufgezeigt, dass Cloud-Computing als Betriebsmodell für ERP-Systeme besonderer Untersuchung bedarf, da beim Zusammenspiel dieser Technologien noch unterschiedliche Herausforderungen geklärt werden müssen. Darauf aufbauend werden mit Hilfe von drei verschiedenen Praxispartnern Fallstudien zu deren Cloud-ERP-Lösungen erstellt, um in einem nächsten Schritt die theoretische Literatur mit den praktischen Ergebnissen zu vergleichen.
Ziel dieser Arbeit ist es mit Hilfe der Forschungsfragen, differenzierte Nutzenaspekte von Cloud-ERP-Lösungen aufzudecken und zu erklären, wie die Theorie mit praktischen Erfahrungswerten von Experten übereinstimmt. Durch die Fallstudien wird deutlich, dass sich die drei unterschiedlichen Cloud-ERP-Anbieter vor allem durch den Umfang ihrer Software und die Unternehmensgrößen der Zielgruppen im Markt differenzieren. Zusätzlich zeigt sich im Analyseteil und Fazit der Arbeit, dass über die in der Theorie identifizierten Nutzenaspekte hinaus, zusätzliche Nutzenaspekte durch die Kombination von Cloud-ERP-Lösungen generiert werden können und dass es aktuell schon eine spezielle Zielgruppe für Cloud-ERP-Lösungen gibt. Für die Zukunft bleibt abzuwarten, wie sich der Cloud-ERP-Markt weiterentwickeln wird und welche weiteren Funktionalitäten in die Cloud ausgelagert werden können, sodass sich On-Demand ERP-Systeme zu einer Konkurrenz von On-Premise-Lösungen entwickeln können.
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.
The E-Government research area has gained in importance in Europe and specially Germany in the last few years, causing the number of researchers, institutes and publications to increase rapidly. This makes it difficult for outsiders to get an overview of the relevant actors in the E-Government field. This issue can be addressed by implementing a research map for the E-Government field, where all relevant actors and objects and their information are shown on the map according to their location. In order to give a complete overview, information which was valid at a certain time in the past needs to be available on the research map. This can be only achieved if the contents of the research map are historicized. This means that a new version of an object needs to be created and saved in the database, if changes occur to the object. Older versions need to be retained on the database, so that the user is able to navigate the website based on temporal information. Past experience has shown that the temporal aspects of historicization should be managed and planned during the conceptual phase of the website rather than during implementation. This Bachelor thesis proposes a concept for the E-Government research map which includes the modeling of relevant temporal dimensions needed to historicize the contents of the research map.
Development of an Android Application for the Recognition and Translation of Words in Camera Scenes
(2012)
This bachelor- thesis describes the conception and implementation of a translation software for the Android platform. The specific feature of the software is the independent text recognition based on the view of the camera. This approach aims to enhance and accelerate the process of translation in certain situations. After an introduction into text recognition, the underlying technologies and the operation system Android useful applications are described. Then the concept of the software is created and the implementation examined. Finally an evaluation is conducted to identify strengths and weaknesses of the software.
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.
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.
Activity recognition with smartphones is possible by using its internal sensors without using any external sensor. First of all, previous works and their techniques will be regarded and from these works an own implementation for the activity recognition will be derived. Most of the previous works only use the accelerometer for the activity recognition task. For this reason, this bachelor thesis analyzes the benefit of further sensors, such as the magnetic field, the linear acceleration or the gyroscope. The activity recognition is performed by classification algorithms. Decision Tree, Naive Bayes and Support Vector machines will be used. Sensor data of subjects will be collected and saved by using an own developed application. This data is needed as training data for the classification algorithms.
The result is a model which represents the structure of the data. To validate the model, a test dataset will be used which is different from the training dataset. The results confirm previous works which indicated that the activity recognition task is possible by only using the accelerometer. Orientation, gyroscope and linear acceleration cannot be used for all problems of the activity recognition. Apart from that, the Decision Tree seems to be the best classification algorithm if the model has no training data of the current user.
Parallelmanipulatoren, welche den Stewartmechanismus nutzen, ermöglichen die präzise Ausführung von Aufgaben in einem begrenzten Arbeitsraum. Durch die Nutzung von sechs Freiheitsgraden wird eine hohe Flexibilität der Positionierung erreicht. Die robuste Konstruktion sorgt zudem für ein sehr gutes Verhältnis von Gewicht zu Nutzlast.
Diese Bachelorarbeit befasst sich mit der Entwicklung einer flexiblen Softwarelösung zur Ansteuerung einer Stewartplattform. Dies umfasst ein Modell der Plattform, welches zu Testzwecken dient. Es werden zunächst die mathematischen Grundlagen der Inversen Kinematik erarbeitet aufbauend auf einem zuvor definierten Bewegungsmodell. Es folgt die Entwicklung einer generischen Architektur zur Übermittlung und Auswertung von Steuerkommandos vom PC. Die Implementierung geschieht in C und wird in verschiedene Module aufgeteilt, welche jeweils einen Aufgabenbereich der Positionskontrolle oder der Hardwarekommunikation abdecken. Es wird zudem eine graphische Nutzeroberfläche vorgestellt, über die man die Position der Plattform manuell verändern kann. Eine automatische Ansteuerung wird im folgenden Anwendungsbeispiel beschrieben, wo die Plattform mit frequentiellen Beschleunigungswerten einer Achterbahnsimulation beliefert wird.
