In no other field of computer science has the hardware been evolved more
quickly than in computer graphics. Therefore the GPU offers, aside from
the pure rendering of triangles, a bunch of further pipeline steps that allows
visualisation of other graphics objects, like freeform surfaces.
This bachelor’s thesis is about the rendering of freeform surfaces, in particular
bezier surfaces. For that reason an implementation for management
and visualisation of bézier surfaces was created for the rendering framework
of the university Koblenz (CVK). For this purpose first a triangulation
was implemented and finally a tesselation of bezier surfaces with normals
and texture coordinates, as well as the handling of trim curves.
The animation of models has become an important part in different areas of everyday life. It is a demanding task for computer graphics to generate
a natural deformation of organic models. Skinning is a common method to animate models without animating each vertex individually. The skin of the model deforms automatically by manipulating individual bones of a skeleton.
This bachelor thesis deals with the most common algorithm, linear blend skinning and aims to find some optimizations regarding the visual effect
and performance. Additionally it presents certain instancing methods which are combined with the skinning methods in the application to show the advantages and disadvantages of the latter.
New techniques concerning the automatic identification of objects (Auto-ID) show unique potential for being used in the economy. This paper focuses on the technology of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) and examines its uses and potentials regarding selected economic sectors. In the course of this paper, RFID will be directly compared to the bar code, the currently most prevalent system for object identification in the economy. To this end, the different basic modes of operation of both technologies will be introduced, and differences between their technical realizations will be brought to light. Moreover, this paper distinguishes and evaluates both technologies with regards to their potential use in three different branches of industry. Their differentiation provides the basis for determining and evaluating the RFID technology- probability of replacing the bar code in the consumer goods sector, the logistic sector, and the pharmaceutic sector.
In this bachelor thesis a system for the simulation of the movements of molecules is developed. The calculation of the forces between chemically bonded atoms as well as intermolecular forces is done almost entirely on the GPU. The visualization of the simulation happens at an interactive framerate. To achieve rendering in realtime on off-the-shelf graphics cards, apt optimizations and slight abstractions of the underlying physical models are needed. One can control the execution speed or completely stop the simulation at any given moment. Some of the parameters of the underlying physical models of the simulation can be modified at runtime. With the right settings for the parameters, some phenomena of molecular dynamics can be observed, for example the spacial structure of the molecules.
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.

Fortgesetzt wird mit der eigentlichen Darstellung der momentan vorhandenen Gewinnspielformate. Abschließend gibt die Arbeit eine erste Festlegung und Aufrechnung einer Gewinnwahrscheinlichkeit an.
Das Ziel der vorliegenden Bachelorarbeit war die Untersuchung
verschiedener Methoden zur Ermittlung und Verbesserung der User
Experience eines Softwareproduktes einer mittelständigen Firma. Hierzu
wurde zunächst ein geeignetes Designkonzept und dazu passende Methoden
der Evaluation und des Testings ermittelt und dann auf das Produkt
angewendet. Mit dem Leitgedanken des User-Centered-Designs wurden
Methoden ausgewählt, welche die Nutzerinnen/Nutzer ins Zentrum der
Untersuchung stellten.
So konnte mit Hilfe der Nutzerinnen/Nutzer des Produktes
herausgefunden werden, wie die User-Experience ausfällt und wie diese
noch verbessert werden kann. In einer Fokusgruppe sind Prototypen für
die Verbesserung und Weiterentwicklung der Software entstanden.
Diese Bachelorarbeit ist sowohl für Sofwaredesignerinnen/-designer,
als auch für Studentinnen/Studenten der Mensch-Maschine-Kommunikation
interessant.
The goal of this bachelor thesis was to add an image processing step to the music recognition software AudiVeris, in order to extract data even from faulty music sheet images. The procedure starts with a binarization using a regional version of Otsu's method. Following this the music sheet is searched for possible bendings, similar to those a hardcover book would cause. To achieve this the Hough transform is used for line detection and the k-means algorithm for cluster detection. Thereafter the music image is straightened using the discovered curvature.
The aim of this thesis is to provide the information that is needed to build a correct data history in a Business Intelligence System. Thereby the phenomena of "Slowly Changing Dimensions" is emphasised. At first a definition of business intelligence is provided which includes the ETL-process, data warehousing, and on-line analytic processing. Furthermore data mining, reporting, dashboards an BI-portals can be considered as a part of the BI-process. It is possible to represent slowly changing dimensions in a database management system. This is modelled in the ETL-process. The data is transformed in a certain way, before being loaded into the data warehouse. Type 1 SCD represents a simple update of the current dimension entry. Type 2 SCD provides a history of the data. It saves all the intermediate states of it. Thus, a user can track all states that changed during a certain time. Type 2 SCD is the one which is mostly used. Type 3 SCD provides just the original and the actual state. Aside from this three types there are existing some hybrid and extended versions.
