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.

This work is concerned with creating a 2D action-adventure with roleplay elements. It provides an overview over various tasks of the implementation. First, the game idea and the used gamemechanism are verified and a definfinition of requirements is created. After introducing the used framework, the software engineering concept for realization is presented. The implementation of control components, game editor, sound and graphics is shown. The graphical implementation pays special attention to the abstraction of light and shadow into the 2D game world.
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.
Structure of soil organic matter (SOM) is a hot topic of discussion among scientific community for several decades. The mostly discussed models, among many, are polymer model and supramolecular model. While the former considers SOM as macromolecules consisting of amorphous and crystalline domains, the latter explains SOM as a physicochemical entity dominated by weak hydrophobic and H-bond interactions in the secondary level, which holds individual molecules of primary structure together. The weak forces in secondary level impart characteristic mobility of SOM. Very important consequence of this multidimensional formulation is that physicochemical structure plays a crucial role in most biogeochemical functions of SOM, apart from the chemical composition. Recently introduced concept of cation and water molecule mediated bridges between OM molecular segments (CaB and WaMB, respectively) evolved from physicochemical understanding of SOM structure. Even though several indirect evidences were produced for CaB and WaMB during last years, no clear-cut understanding of these processes has been achieved yet. Experimental difficulty due to overlapping effects of equally important CaB-governing parameters such a pH and competing cations raises huge challenge in investigating CaB-related influences. This thesis, therefore, aims to validate an experimental set-up for inducing CaB within OM structures and assessing it from various chemical and physicochemical aspects.
The method involved removal of omnipresent cations and adjustment of pH before cation addition. This helped to separate pH effects and cation effects. Based on results obtained on two different types of organic matter, it can be deduced that multivalent cations can cross-link SOM, given that functional group density of the SOM material is enough for the functional groups to be arranged in sufficient spatial proximity to each other. Physicochemical structural reorganisation during aging causes formation of more and/or stronger CaB and WaMB. As for inducing CaB directly after cation treatment, cationic size and valency were found determinant also for aging effect. A strongly cross-linked system in the beginning is less vulnerable to structural changes and undergoes aging with lower intensity, than an initially weakly cross-linked system. Responsible for the structural changes is, the inherent mobility of SOM within its physicochemical assemblage. Thus the information on structural requirement of CaB and its consequences on OM matrix rigidity will help to obtain insight into the physicochemical SOM structure. Additionally, organic matter quality (assessed by thermal analysis) and pore structure of SOM formed in a set of artificial soils showed that mineral materials are important for the chemical nature of SOM molecules, but not for the physical structure of organo-mineral associations, at least after several months of SOM development.
Furthermore, nanothermal analysis using atomic force microscopy (AFM-nTA) was implemented in soils for the first time to reveal nanoscale thermal properties and their spatial distribution in nano- and micrometer scales. This helped to identify physicochemical processes, such as disruption of WaMB, in low-organic soils, in which bulk methods fail due to their low sensitivity. Further, various types of materials constituting in soils were distinguished with high resolution by advanced application of the method, in combination with other AFM parameters. Attempts were done to identify various materials, with the usage of defined test materials. Above all, the method is potent to reveal microspatial heterogeneity on sample surfaces, which could help understanding process-relevant hotspots, for example.
This thesis thus contributes to the scientific understanding on physicochemical structural dynamics via cross-linking by cations and via nanoscale thermal properties. Direct investigation on CaB demonstrated here will potentially help making a big leap in knowledge about the interaction. The observed aging effects add well to the understanding of supramolecular consideration of SOM. By introducing nanothermal analysis to the field of soil science, it is made possible to face the problem of heterogeneity and spatial distribution of thermal characteristics. Another important achievement of AFM-nTA is that it can be used to detect physicochemical processes, which are of low intensity.
Studies on the toxicity of chemical mixtures find that components at levels below no-observed-effect concentrations (NOECs) may cause toxicity resulting from the combined effects of mixed chemicals. However, chemical risk assessment frequently focuses on individual chemical substances, although most living organisms are substantially exposed to chemical mixtures rather than single substances. The concepts of additive toxicity, concentration addition (CA), and independent action (IA) models are often applied to predict the mixture toxicity of similarly and dissimilarly acting chemicals, respectively. However, living organisms and the environment may be exposed to both types of chemicals at the same time and location. In addition, experimental acquisition of toxicity data for every conceivable mixture is unfeasible since the number of chemical combinations is extremely large. Therefore, an integrated model to predict mixture toxicity on the basis of single mixture components having various modes of toxic action (MoAs) needs to be developed. The objectives of the present study were to analyze the challenges in predicting mixture toxicity in the environment, and to develop integrated models that overcome the limitations of the existing prediction models for estimating the toxicity of non-interactive mixtures through computational models. For these goals, four sub-topics were generated in this study. Firstly, applicable domains and limitations of existing integrated models were analyzed and grouped into three kinds of categories in this study. There are current approaches used to assess mixture toxicity; however, there is a need for a new research concept to overcome challenges associated with such approaches, which recent studies have addressed. These approaches are discussed with particular emphasis on those studies involved in computational approaches to predict the toxicity of chemical mixtures based on the toxicological data of individual chemicals. Secondly, through a case study and a computational simulation, it was found that the Key Critical Component (KCC) and Composite Reciprocal (CR) methods (as described in the European Union (EU) draft technical guidance notes for calculating the Predicted No Effect Concentration (PNEC) and Derived No Effect Level (DNEL) of mixtures) could derive significantly different results. As the third and fourth sub-topics of this study, the following two integrated addition models were developed and successfully applied to overcome the inherent limitations of the CA and IA models, which could be theoretically used for either similarly or dissimilarly acting chemicals: i) a Partial Least Squares-Based Integrated Addition Model (PLS-IAM), and, ii) a Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationship-Based Two-Stage Prediction (QSAR-TSP) model. In this study, it was shown that the PLS-IAM might be useful to estimate mixture toxicity when the toxicity data of similar mixtures having the same compositions were available. In the case of the QSAR-TSP model, it showed the potential to overcome the critical limitation of the conventional TSP model, which requires knowledge of the MoAs for all chemicals. Therefore, this study presented good potential for the advanced integrated models (e.g., PLS-IAM and QSAR-TSP), while considering various non-interactive constituents that have different MoAs in order to increase the reliance of conventional models and simplify the procedure for risk assessment of mixtures.
We present the conceptual and technological foundations of a distributed natural language interface employing a graph-based parsing approach. The parsing model developed in this thesis generates a semantic representation of a natural language query in a 3-staged, transition-based process using probabilistic patterns. The semantic representation of a natural language query is modeled in terms of a graph, which represents entities as nodes connected by edges representing relations between entities. The presented system architecture provides the concept of a natural language interface that is both independent in terms of the included vocabularies for parsing the syntax and semantics of the input query, as well as the knowledge sources that are consulted for retrieving search results. This functionality is achieved by modularizing the system's components, addressing external data sources by flexible modules which can be modified at runtime. We evaluate the system's performance by testing the accuracy of the syntactic parser, the precision of the retrieved search results as well as the speed of the prototype.
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.
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.

This master thesis deals basically with the design and implementation of a path planning system based on rapidly exploring search trees for general-n-trailers. This is a probabilistic method that is characterized by a fast and uniform exploration. The method is well established, however, has been applied only to vehicles with simple kinematics to date. General-n-trailers represent a particular challenge as their controllability is limited. For this reason the focus of this thesis rests on the application of the mentioned procedure to general-n-trailers. In this context systematic correlations between the characteristics of general-n-trailers and the possibilities for the realization and application of the method are analyzed.
This thesis deals with the development and evaluation of a concept of novel interaction with ubiquitous user interfaces. To accomplish the evaluation of this interaction concept, a prototype was implementated by using an existing head-mounted display solution and an android smartphone.
Furthermore, in the course of this thesis, a concrete use case for this prototype " the navigation through a city block with the aid of an electronic map " was developed and built as an executable application to help evaluate the quality of the interaction concept. Therefore, fundamental research results were achieved.
This bachelor thesis deals with the concept of a smartphone application for emergencies. It describes the basic problem and provides a conceptual approach.
The core content of this thesis is a requirement analysis of the newly to be designed emergency application. Furthermore the functional and non-functional requirements such as usability are specified to give insights for the concept of the application. In addition, single sub-functions of the mHealth applications of the University Koblenz which exists or are still under construction can be integrated in the future emergency application. Based on the catalog of requirements a market analysis for strengths and weaknesses of existing emergency application systems is realized. In the to-be concept the findings were summarized and possible architectural sketches for future emergency applications were given. Furthermore, one conclusion of dealing with this topic is that a design alone is not sufficient to guarantee a good working app. That is why the requirements for the thesis were expanded by the connection to and integration of rescue centers in the architecture of the emergency app.
At the end of the thesis, the reader will receive a comprehensive overview of the provision of emergency data to the rescue control centers by different transmission channels. Furthermore, conditions for the system requirements are also presented as possible scenarios of the architecture of the whole system of the emergency application. The generic and modular approach guarantees that the system is open for future development and integration of functions of other applications.

Im Rahmen dieser Masterarbeit wird ein umfassender Überblick über die Vielfalt der Sicherheitsmodelle gegeben, indem ausgewählte Sicherheitsmodelle beschrieben, klassifiziert und miteinander verglichen werden.
Sicherheitsmodelle beschreiben in einer abstrakten Weise die sicherheitsrelevanten
Komponenten und Zusammenhänge eines Systems. Mit den Sicherheitsmodellen können komplexe Sachverhalte veranschaulicht und analysiert werden.
Da Sicherheitsmodelle unterschiedliche Sicherheitsaspekte behandeln, beschäftigt
sich diese Arbeit mit der Ausarbeitung eines Klassifizierungsschemas, welches
die strukturelle und konzeptuelle Besonderheiten der Modelle in Bezug auf die zugrundeliegenden Sicherheitsaspekte beschreibt. Im Rahmen des Klassifizierungsschemas werden die drei grundlegenden Modellklassen gebildet: Zugriffskontrollmodelle, Informationsflussmodelle und Transaktionsmodelle.
Sicherheitsmodelle werden in einem direkten und indirekten Vergleich gegenüber gestellt. Im letzten Fall werden sie einer oder mehrerer Modellklassen des Klassifizierungsschemas zugeordnet. Diese Klassifizierung erlaubt, Aussagen über die betrachteten Sicherheitsaspekte und die strukturellen bzw. konzeptuellen Besonderheiten eines Sicherheitsmodells in Bezug auf die anderen Sicherheitsmodelle
zu machen.
Beim direkten Vergleich werden anhand der ausgewählten Kriterien die Eigenschaften
und Aspekte der Sicherheitsmodelle orthogonal zu den Modellklassen
betrachtet.
Ein Werkzeug zur schnellen Erstellung individueller Schriftarten für die jeweiligen akuten Bedürfnisse wäre ein hilfreiches Instrument für Grafiker und Typographen. Die Anforderung für ein solches Instrument kann kaum sein, gute Schriftsätze zu erzeugen, dies liegt in den Händen des Gestalters, jedoch sollte sie jedem, der sich mit dem Thema befassen möchte, einen leichten Einstieg in die Gestaltung geben. Diese Arbeit versucht somit eine möglichst simple Lösung für das komplexe Thema der Schriftgestaltung zu liefern.
Human detection is a key element for human-robot interaction. More and more robots are used in human environments, and are expected to react to the behavior of people. Before a robot can interact with a person, it must be able to detect it at first. This thesis presents a system for the detection of humans and their hands using a RGB-D camera. First, a model based hypotheses for possible positions of humans are created to recognize a person. By using the upper parts of the body are used to extract, new features based on relief and width of a person- head and shoulders are extracted. The hypotheses are checked by classifying the features with a support vector machine (SVM). The system is able to detect people in different poses. Both sitting and standing humans are found, by using the visible upper parts of the person. Moreover, the system is able to recognize if a human is facing or averting the sensor. If the human is facing the sensor, the color information and the distance between hand and body are used to detect the positions of the person- hands. This information is useful for gestures recognition and thus can further enhances human-robot interaction.
Chemical plant protection is an essential element in integrated pest management and hence, in current crop production. The use of Plant Protection Products (PPPs) potentially involves ecological risk. This risk has to be characterised, assessed and managed.
For the coming years, an increasing need for agricultural products is expected. At the same time, preserving our natural resources and biodiversity per se is of equally fundamental importance. The relationship of our economic success and cultural progress to protecting the environment has been made plain in the Ecosystem Service concept. These distinct 'services' provide the foundation for defining ecological protection goals (Specific Protection Goals, SPGs) which can serve in the development of methods for ecological risk characterisation, assessment and management.
Ecological risk management (RM) of PPPs is a comprehensive process that includes different aspects and levels. RM is an implicit part of tiered risk assessment (RA) schemes and scenarios, yet RM also explicitly occurs as risk mitigation measures. At higher decision levels, RM takes further risks, besides ecological risk, into account (e.g., economic). Therefore, ecological risk characterisation can include RM (mitigation measures) and can be part of higher level RM decision-making in a broader Ecosystem Service context.
The aim of this thesis is to contribute to improved quantification of ecological risk as a basis for RA and RM. The initial general objective had been entitled as "… to estimate the spatial and temporal extent of exposure and effects…" and was found to be closely related to forthcoming SPGs with their defined 'Risk Dimension'.
An initial exploration of the regulatory framework of ecological RA and RM of PPPs and their use, carried out in the present thesis, emphasised the value of risk characterisation at landscape-scale. The landscape-scale provides the necessary and sufficient context, including abiotic and biotic processes, their interaction at different scales, as well as human activities. In particular, spatially (and temporally) explicit landscape-scale risk characterisation and RA can provide a direct basis for PPP-specific or generic RM. From the general need for tiered landscape-scale context in risk characterisation, specific requirements relevant to a landscape-scale model were developed in the present thesis, guided by the key objective of improved ecological risk quantification. In principle, for an adverse effect (Impact) to happen requires a sensitive species and life stage to co-occur with a significant exposure extent in space and time. Therefore, the quantification of the Probability of an Impact occurring is the basic requirement of the model. In a landscape-scale context, this means assessing the spatiotemporal distribution of species sensitivity and their potential exposure to the chemical.
The core functionality of the model should reflect the main problem structures in ecological risk characterisation, RA and RM, with particular relationship to SPGs, while being adaptable to specific RA problems. This resulted in the development of a modelling framework (Xplicit-Framework), realised in the present thesis. The Xplicit-Framework provides the core functionality for spatiotemporally explicit and probabilistic risk characterisation, together with interfaces to external models and services which are linked to the framework using specific adaptors (Associated-Models, e.g., exposure, eFate and effect models, or geodata services). From the Xplicit-Framework, and using Associated-Models, specific models are derived, adapted to RA problems (Xplicit-Models).
Xplicit-Models are capable of propagating variability (and uncertainty) of real-world agricultural and environmental conditions to exposure and effects using Monte Carlo methods and, hence, to introduce landscape-scale context to risk characterisation. Scale-dependencies play a key role in landscape-scale processes and were taken into account, e.g., in defining and sampling Probability Density Functions (PDFs). Likewise, evaluation of model outcome for risk characterisation is done at ecologically meaningful scales.
Xplicit-Models can be designed to explicitly address risk dimensions of SPGs. Their definition depends on the RA problem and tier. Thus, the Xplicit approach allows for stepwise introduction of landscape-scale context (factors and processes), e.g., starting at the definitions of current standard RA (lower-tier) levels by centring on a specific PPP use, while introducing real-world landscape factors driving risk. With its generic and modular design, the Xplicit-Framework can also be employed by taking an ecological entity-centric perspective. As the predictive power of landscape-scale risk characterisation increases, it is possible that Xplicit-Models become part of an explicit Ecosystem Services-oriented RM (e.g., cost/benefit level).
