Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) affect a large number of children both in the Russian Federation and in Germany. Early diagnosis is key for these children, because the sooner parents notice such disorders in a child and the rehabilitation and treatment program starts, the higher the likelihood of his social adaptation. The difficulties in raising such a child lie in the complexity of his learning outside of children's groups and the complexity of his medical care. In this regard, the development of digital applications that facilitate medical care and education of such children at home is important and relevant. The purpose of the project is to improve the availability and quality of healthcare and social adaptation at home of children with ASD through the use of digital technologies.
The fashion industry is a vast industry that has grown tremendously over the last decades. This growth causes significant environmental impact since the production of clothes involves high input of energy, water, chemicals and generates great volumes of waste. Even though fashion firms have started to address this challenge by adopting environmental standards, it has turned out that the sole use of eco-friendly material and new manufacturing techniques is insufficient. Instead, sustainable business models are increasingly gaining attention to solve the environmental problems. Offers to rent, swap, repair or redesign clothes are among the most prominent and promising examples. For analytical purposes, these concepts can be assigned to the growing research stream of Product-Service Systems (PSS) that shift the focus from the pure sale of a product toward complementary or substitutional service offers. This decouples customer satisfaction from material consumption, prolongs the garments' lifetime and thus diminishes both material input and appertaining waste. Besides environmental sustainability, PSS imply potential economic benefits for organizations. Particularly in highly competitive industries like the fashion industry, PSS allow firms to differentiate, better compete with cost pressure and mitigate the risk of being imitated by rivels since service is more difficult to replicate. However, fashion PSS are still mainly operated in a niche market by small firms and have yet to be anchored in the mainstream fashion industry.
Anders als Digital-ICs, die hochautomatisiert entworfen werden können, ist der Entwurf analoger ICs bis heute Handarbeit. Übliche auf Optimierung basierende Automatisierungsverfahren scheitern. Die Ursachen wurden jetzt in einem Forschungsprojekt untersucht, um neue Ansätze zur Entwurfsautomatisierung analoger ICs abzuleiten.
Die Landessprache in der Lehre - welche Bedeutung kommt ihr bei der Internationalisierung zu?
(2019)
Seit der Jahrhundertwende wird erfolgreich die Intensivierung des Austauschs zwischen wissenschaftlichen Einrichtungen betrieben, auch national, aber vor allem international. Anfänglich schien klar, dass gute Indikatoren für die "Internationalisierung" genannte Entwicklung die Anteile ausländischer Wissenschaftler und Studierender sind. Konsens über sinnvolle Zielgrößen für die Indikatoren gibt es jedoch bisher nicht. Nach einiger Zeit flachte sich der anfängliche Anstieg dieser Quoten etwas ab. Mit der Folge einer weiteren Steigerung dieses Indikators ist neuerdings international der Trend zur Anglophonisierung der Lehre zu beobachten.
Additive manufacturing is a key technology which applies the ideas of Industry 4.0 in order to enable the production of personalized and highly customized products economically. Especially small and medium sized companies often lack the competence and experience to evaluate objectively and profoundly the potential of additive manufacturing technologies in small and medium sized companies. Furthermore, the method has been validated in a small medical technology company evaluating the additive manufacturing potential of an existing surgery tool.
Continuous refactoring is necessary to maintain source code quality and to cope with technical debt. Since manual refactoring is inefficient and error prone, various solutions for automated refactoring have been proposed in the past. However, empirical studies have shown that these solutions are not widely accepted by software developers and most refactorings are still performed manually. For example, developers reported that refactoring tools should support functionality for reviewing changes. They also criticized that introducing such tools would require substantial effort for configuration and integration into the current development environment.
In this paper, we present our work towards the Refactoring-Bot, an autonomous bot that integrates into the team like a human developer via the existing version control platform. The bot automatically performs refactorings to resolve code smells and presents the changes to a developer for asynchronous review via pull requests. This way, developers are not interrupted in their workflow and can review the changes at any time with familiar tools. Proposed refactorings can then be integrated into the code base via the push of a button. We elaborate on our vision, discuss design decisions, describe the current state of development, and give an outlook on planned development and research activities.
Anlass für die Ausstellung war das 150 jährige Bestehen der Hochschule Reutlingen. Ursprünglich als Webschule gegründet, später Technikum für Textilindustrie und staatliche Ingenieurschule, entwickelte sich daraus bis heute die Fachhochschule mit der Fakultät für Textil und Design. Den Schwerpunkt des historischen Teils der Ausstellung bildet die Gewebesammlung, die in der Webschule als Vorbild für die Studenten wie auch für die württembergische Textilindustrie entstand. Demgegenüber stehen aktuelle Funktionstextilien aus High-Tech-Fasern, die über die traditionelle Nutzung als Material für Bekleidung hinaus vielseitig eingesetzt werden: im Automobil- und Flugzeugbau, in der Medizintechnik, im Arbeitsschutz, an Bauwerken.
The Third International Conference on Data Analytics (DATA ANALYTICS 2014), held on August 24 - 28, 2014 - Rome, Italy, continued the inaugural event on fundamentals in supporting data analytics, special mechanisms and features of applying principles of data analytics, application oriented analytics, and target-area analytics.
Processing of terabytes to petabytes of data, or incorporating non-structural data and multistructured data sources and types require advanced analytics and data science mechanisms for both raw and partially-processed information. Despite considerable advancements on high performance, large storage, and high computation power, there are challenges in identifying, clustering, classifying, and interpreting of a large spectrum of information.
The Eleventh International Conference on Advances in Databases, Knowledge, and Data Applications (DBKDA 2019), held between June 02, 2019 to June 06, 2019 - Athens, Greece, continued a series of international events covering a large spectrum of topics related to advances in fundamentals on databases, evolution of relation between databases and other domains, data base technologies and content processing, as well as specifics in applications domains databases.
Advances in different technologies and domains related to databases triggered substantial improvements for content processing, information indexing, and data, process and knowledge mining. The push came from Web services, artificial intelligence, and agent technologies, as well as from the generalization of the XML adoption.
High-speed communications and computations, large storage capacities, and loadbalancing for distributed databases access allow new approaches for content processing with incomplete patterns, advanced ranking algorithms and advanced indexing methods.
Evolution on e-business, ehealth and telemedicine, bioinformatics, finance and marketing, geographical positioning systems put pressure on database communities to push the ‘de facto’ methods to support new requirements in terms of scalability, privacy, performance, indexing, and heterogeneity of both content and technology.
We welcomed academic, research and industry contributions. The conference had the followingtracks:
Knowledgeanddecisionbase
