Large three-dimensional metallic parts can be printed layer-by-layer using gas metal arc directed energy deposition (GMA-DED) process at a high deposition rate and with little or no material wastage. Fast responsive real-time monitoring of GMA-DED process signatures and their transient variations is required for printing of dimensionally accurate and structurally sound parts. A systematic experimental investigation is presented here on multi-layer GMA-DED with two different scanning strategies using a high strength low alloy (HSLA) filler wire. The dynamic metal transfer, melt pool temperature field and its longitudinal cross-section, and arc voltage and current are monitored synchronously. The transient arc heat input and the melt pool solidification cooling rate are estimated from the monitored signals. The layer-wise variations of the melt pool dimension, surface temperature profile, thermal cycles, and solidification cooling rate are examined for different scanning strategies. It is comprehended that the part defects can be minimized, and the mass production of zero-defect parts can be achieved in GMA-DED process with synchronized monitoring and assessment of the real-time process signatures.
An approach for analyzing business process execution complexity based on textual data and event log
(2023)
With the advent of digital transformation, organizations increasingly rely on various information systems to support their business processes (BPs). Recorded data, including textual data and event log, expand exponentially, complicating decision-making and posing new challenges for BP complexity analysis in Business Process Management (BPM). Herein, Process Mining (PM) serves to derive insights based on historic BP execution data, called event log. However, in PM, textual data is often neglected or limited to BP descriptions. Therefore, in this study, we propose a novel approach for analyzing BP execution complexity by combining textual data serving as an input at the BP start and event log. The approach is aimed at studying the connection between complexities obtained from these two data types. For textual data-based complexity, the approach employs a set of linguistic features. In our previous work, we have explored the design of linguistic features favorable for BP execution complexity prediction. Accordingly, we adapt and incorporate them into the proposed approach. Using these features, various machine learning techniques are applied to predict textual data-based complexity. Moreover, in this prediction, we show the adequacy of our linguistic features, which outperformed the linguistic features of a widely-used text analysis technique. To calculate event log-based complexity, the event log and relevant complexity metrics are used. Afterward, a correlation analysis of two complexities and an analysis of the significant differences in correlations are performed. The results serve to derive recommendations and insights for BP improvement. We apply the approach in the IT ticket handling process of the IT department of an academic institution. Our findings show that the suggested approach enables a comprehensive identification of BP redesign and improvement opportunities.
Context awareness is critical for the successful execution of processes. In the abundance of business process management (BPM) research, frameworks exclusively devoted to extracting context from textual process data are scarce. With the deluge of textual data and its increasing value for organizations, it becomes essential to employ relevant text analytics techniques to increase the awareness of process workers, which is important for process execution. The present paper addresses this demand by developing a framework for context awareness based on process executions-related textual data using a well-established layered BPM context model. This framework combines and maps various text analytics techniques to the layers of the context model, aiming to increase the context awareness of process workers and facilitate informed decision-making. The framework is applied in an IT ticket processing case study. The findings show that contextual information obtained using our framework enriches the awareness of process workers regarding the process instance urgency, complexity, and upcoming tasks and assists in making decisions in terms of these aspects.
Compliance-Management
(2023)
Dieses Buch bietet eine komprimierte und praxisorientierte Einführung in die Grundlagen und Anforderungen eines Compliance-Managements, um den Leser schnell mit aktuellen und zentralen Regelungen vertraut zu machen. Dabei wird auf gesetzliche und regulatorische Bestimmungen ebenso eingegangen wie auf betriebswirtschaftliche Notwendigkeiten, um Mitarbeitende und Unternehmen vor den schwerwiegenden Folgen von Compliance-Verstößen zu schützen.
Limitierende Faktoren
(2023)
Wie bei allen Risiken gibt es auch bei Compliance-Risiken kein Null-Risiko. Man wird in der Praxis noch nicht einmal in die unmittelbare Nähe einer Null kommen. Ein Null-Compliance-Risiko ist auch deshalb nicht erreichbar, weil sich ständig neue Risikofelder auftun. So beispielsweise durch Änderung von Geschäftsmodellen oder Vertriebswegen oder durch neue rechtliche Rahmenbedingen.
Unsere Welt verändert sich in unterschiedlichen Tempi und Verwerfungstiefen. Dies ist das einzig Verlässliche für Wirtschaft und Gesellschaft.
Zum einen zählt die kreative Zerstörung zum ‚Markenkern‘ marktwirtschaftlicher Systeme. Die Wirtschaftsakteure stehen dadurch an ihrem jeweiligen Standort unter einer Art (produktivem) Dauerstress. Es gibt Gewinner und Verlierer, weil Wettbewerber unterschiedlich erfolgreich kostensenkende Rationalisierungen, technischen Fortschritt und die Erschließung neuer (globaler) Märkte realisieren. Der damit einhergehende Strukturwandel gilt als wirtschaftssystemischer Normalzustand.
Zum anderen gibt es Krisen. Und auch ‚unter Schock‘ (re-)agieren Akteure ungleich, wie die Corona-Pandemie oder abrupte Veränderungen durch die Finanzkrise zeigen. Einige Akteure und Standorte bleiben mit ihrem jeweiligen Profil und Potenzial (weiterhin) produktiv widerstandsfähig. Für andere verschärfen sich der wirtschaftliche Niedergang und dessen Folgen für die Arbeitsmärkte und Lebensqualität der Betroffenen.
Regionale Wirtschaftsförderung unterstützt, dass sich die Wirtschaftsstrukturen an einem Standort überlebensfähig ausrichten. Doch kann sie auch beim Umgang mit Krisen einen Mehrwert erzielen und zählt dies überhaupt zu ihrem Regelauftrag? Und welche Rolle spielt die Digitalisierung? Der Beitrag stellt den sachlogischen Zusammenhang zwischen diesen Teilfragen her und ordnet neuere Ansätze ein. Zudem werden Ansatzstellen aufgezeigt, um die regionale Wirtschaftsförderung praxisorientiert weiterzuentwickeln. ‚Electronic Government‘ (E-Government) beschreibt dabei den Einsatz von Informationstechnik, Telekommunikation und Medien (ITKM) im öffentlichen Sektor, während ‚Electronic Governance‘ (E-Governance) hybride oder private Akteure miteinbezieht.
Der Beitrag ist wie folgt strukturiert: Zunächst werden Schlüsselbegriffe wie Strukturpolitik und Resilienz geklärt und mit den Kontextfaktoren verknüpft, welche die Steuerungslogik von Wirtschaftsförderung bestimmen. Danach wird diskutiert, inwiefern die Wirtschaftsförderung E-Government und E-Governance nutzen kann, um Resilienz zu stärken und möglichst transformativ wirken zu können.
Digital transformation initiatives in small and medium-sized enterprises (SME) are often hampered by individual practitioners' perceptions of information and communication technology (ICT). This research employs an educational escape room (ER) game for an intervention towards informed decision-making on ICT adoption in SMEs. ER design and implementation are elaborated and consequently tested with SME practitioners, all embedded in an action-design study based on a qualitative research methodology. The result highlights a trade-off between creating immersive game experiences and achieving learning objectives. Still, the outcome implies an impact on players' perception of ICT integrated in the ER. The findings contribute to the emerging field of serious games for learning and shed light on the potential of game-based interventions for SMEs.

This paper presents a study on the feasibility of using large language models (LLM) for coding with low-resource and domain-specific programming languages that typically lack the amount of data required for effective LLM processing techniques. This study focuses on the econometric scripting language named hansl of the open-source software gretl and employs a proprietary LLM based on GPT-3.5. Our findings suggest that LLMs can be a useful tool for writing, understanding, improving, and documenting gretl code, which includes generating descriptive docstrings for functions and providing precise explanations for abstract and poorly documented econometric code. While the LLM showcased promoting docstring-to-code translation capability, we also identify some limitations, such as its inability to improve certain sections of code and to write accurate unit tests. This study is a step towards leveraging the power of LLMs to facilitate software development in low-resource programming languages and ultimately to lower barriers to entry for their adoption.
In diesem Whitepaper fokussieren wir uns auf die KI-Verordnung nicht erfasste freiwillige Zertifizierung. Dabei stehen die Interessen und Sichtweisen der Verbraucher*innen im Vordergrund. Als Verbraucher*innen betrachten wir nicht nur die unmittelbaren Nutzer*innen von KI-Systemen, sondern auch Privatpersonen, die indirekt von KI-Ergebnissen betroffen sein können. Zudem berücksichtigen wir Menschen in der Rolle als souveräne Datensubjekte, deren personenbezogene Daten in die Entwicklung von KI-Systemen einfließen. Dieses breite Verständnis des Verbraucher*innenbegriffs entspricht dem Selbstverständnis des Zentrums für vertrauenswürdige Künstliche Intelligenz (ZVKI). Wir stellen Thesen auf, wie freiwillige Zertifizierungen von KI-Systemen für Verbraucher*innen nützlich sein können. Die im Verlauf vorgestellten und begründeten acht Thesen wurden in einer Reihe von interdisziplinären Workshops erarbeitet. Dabei identifizierten wir Herausforderungen einer KI-Zertifizierung aus Verbraucher*innensicht und präzisierten diese iterativ. Die Gruppendiskussionen dienten als Grundlage dieses Whitepapers und bauten auf Erkenntnissen der Fach-Arbeitsgruppe „KI Zertifizierung“ des ZVKI auf. Alle Co-Autor*innen waren an der Erstellung des finalen Texts beteiligt. Die aufgestellten Thesen thematisieren grundlegende Anforderungen an eine KI-Zertifizierung aus einer übergeordneten Perspektive, unabhängig von den spezifischen Details einer KI-Anwendung. Somit liefern sie keine Aussagen zu konkreten Inhalten der Zertifizierung. Detaillierte Empfehlungen setzen eine umfassende Analyse von Einsatzfällen voraus, die in diesem Rahmen nicht geleistet werden kann.

This article presents a research outline on the use of microlearning applications to develop digital competencies in Small and Medium-sized Enter-prises (SMEs). The digital transformation of businesses has become essential for their survival, and SMEs need to develop digital competencies (DC) to remain competitive in the market. Microlearning (ML), a form of learning that involves small, bite-sized learning modules, has been gaining popularity in recent years as a way to efficiently and effectively develop skills. Through a semi-systematic literature review approach, our study examines prevalent knowledge in the area of ML and DC and discusses interrelations. As a result, we propose a research roadmap consisting of six research questions targeting four dimensions of ML for DC development in SMEs: 1) context, 2) formats, 3) reward system, and 4) complexity level.
Die digitalen Technologien verändern die Gesellschaft, auch die akademischen Wissen-schaftssysteme sind betroffen. Das erfordert verstärkte Überlegungen zum Einsatz solcher Techno-logien und zu ihrem Einfluss auf Lehre und Studium. Der Beitrag fokussiert die Relevanz von AI-Literacy im Kontext des Einsatzes Generativer KI aus zwei Perspektiven. Zunächst wird die Wahr-nehmung und Bereitschaft von Studierenden, KI-basierte Tools zur automatisierten Textgenerierung zu nutzen, empirisch untersucht. Im zweiten Teil wird ein auf Ko-Kreation ausgerichtetes Lehrkon-zept modelliert, das neben fachlichen auch AI-Literacy-Kompetenzen adressiert. Die Ergebnisse führen zu Handlungsansätzen, insbesondere für Wirtschaftsinformatik-Studiengänge.
Climate change, but also geopolitical circumstances, are moving topics such as energy efficiency and renewable energies more and more into the focus of the population, economy , and politics. As a result, the will to optimize new and existing energy systems extends from private individuals to companies and even entire communities. This work describes the development and usage of a new software called FINEconcepts which creates a digital twin of an energy system. This virtual model can then be used to optimize the energy system based on annual costs, CO2 emissions or other relevant criteria such as self-sufficiency. Because all system components, which include renewable technologies as well, can be added as a building block with chosen but changeable parameters, the software allows the user to explore and awaken interest and understanding of technologies that were previously considered too costly, irrelevant, or unrealistic. Implemented projects in small and large companies as well as in residential areas did prove, that the usage of FINEconcepts leads not only to more efficient energy systems by increasing the use of renewable energy, but also increased knowledge and understanding in terms of energy. Besides economics, ecology and security, understanding is an equally important factor in achieving a sustainable energy supply.
Climate will be decided in the global south Mankind is on a dangerous journey in the Anthropocene. Arriving at a good life for all within planetary boundaries is still possible. But at present, the journey is more likely to lead to an overheating of the Earth. Health and life would then be massively endangered for many living beings - including humans. A positive development is still possible, but it requires a global transformation of the economy and society. The prosperous states and companies are well advised, to respect the interests of the global south and future generations, and to use wisely the considerable financial resources in a cooperation of equals. This book • highlights past carbon emissions and their consequences, • reflects on the main drivers of future emissions, • discusses strategies like green growth, de-growth, • presents market-based instruments like carbon trading and carbon border adjustment and • emphasises the key role played by the emerging countries of the global south. It is not only a matter of justice but furthermore in the interest of the rich countries in the global north to contribute massively to financing a "green leapfrogging" of the global south into a carbon-free prosperity. Failing to achieve it will bring unspeakable losses and suffering to many people all over the planet.
Small Businesses Participating in Digital Platform Ecosystems - A Descriptive Literature Review
(2023)
The emergence of digital multi-sided platforms has disrupted day-to-day business in many industries. Nowadays, many small businesses participate in digital platform (DP) ecosystems and act as value creators or complementors. Investigating the small business perspective does not have a rich tradition in platform research yet. In response, this paper presents a systematic literature review (SLR) analyzing the thematic points of focus and highlighting new avenues for information systems and small business research. We find that objectives related to digital transformation, digital strategy- and business model-development, and DP adoption are fundamental topics in the conjunction of small business and DP ecosystems. Based on the findings, an agenda for future research is developed, including propositions for practice-oriented and human-centered approaches fostering sustilience, innovation capabilities and digital leadership competencies in small businesses facing DP ecosystem participation.
"Digital" is a popular adjective for concepts related to electronic, computerized or networked processes in current research and practice. From an ontological-theoretical perspective, the prevalence of digital things triggers the question, how Digitality itself could be conceptualized. This article studies the ontology of Digitality and consequently discusses Digital Innovation (DI) from a new perspective. First, literature on Digitality is analyzed. Based on the findings, an ontological conceptual framework of Digitality (OCFD) is proposed. It describes four layers of Digitality: physical foundations, virtuality, digital culture and world, and digital metaphysics. From a human perspective, requirements to grasp and embody Digitality are highlighted, as well as the expansion of reality. Finally, Digitality is discussed as a paradigm of DI and exemplary digital phenomena are projected onto the OCFD. This paper contributes to DI research and practice through theory-building towards a better understanding of ontological characteristics and practical implications of Digitality in DI.

Laws are the reflection of the ethical and moral principles of the society. While the use of technology influences users’ behavior in a pace that is affected by the technology introduction to the market, legal activities can be driven by the society as the results of such interactions. This scenario analysis- based research focuses on a classic but fictional food recommender system and the ethical issues that might occur from its usage. The recommender system is taken here as an example of machine learning-based systems (MLS) that can often be found in the individual, business and administrative applications. The research compares the existing legal solutions, with the focus on the GDPR legislation, and the discovered ethical issues. The ethical analysis is led along the ALTAI principles suggested by the European Commission, the common good approach as well as the general principles constituted in human rights. While the GDPR-based analysis showed that this data- and privacy-based legislation addressed most of the identified ethical issues, questions related to the common good approach in the context of environment and mobility that arise due to the wide spectrum of the MLS usage require further legal discussion. The application of the two approaches shows that conducting the ethical and legal analysis is beneficial for both the designers of such MLS as well as the legal actors. The findings can enhance the design and functions of a user-facing MLS as well as influence or validate legal activities.
Auf dem Weg zu mehr Klimagerechtigkeit Im Bündnis mit dem Globalen Süden Widerstände überwinden
(2023)
Die Menschen sind im Anthropozän auf einer gefährlichen Reise. Das Ziel steht noch nicht fest. Die Ankunft in einem guten Leben für alle innerhalb planetarer Grenzen ist immer noch möglich. Aber zurzeit führt die Reise eher zu einer Überhitzung der Erde. Gesundheit und Leben wären dann für viele Lebewesen – auch für den Menschen – massiv gefährdet. Das Buch behandelt die Fragen: • Wie sind wir in diese Lage geraten? • In welcher Richtung können Auswege liegen? • Welche Hindernisse sind zu überwinden? Es werden Strategien abgewogen und einige überraschende Bündnispartner identifiziert. Geschickt gestaltete Märkte können helfen, die Erderwärmung aufzuhalten. Nur in einer gleicheren und gerechteren Welt könnten alle Menschen gut, aber bescheidener leben. Die Alternative dazu wäre eine übererhitzte, gefährliche Welt. Eine gute Entwicklung ist noch möglich. Sie erfordert eine globale Transformation von Wirtschaft und Gesellschaft. Die wohlhabenden Staaten sind gut beraten, die Interessen des „Globalen Südens“ und der künftigen Generationen zu respektieren – auch durch den klugen Einsatz erheblicher Finanzmittel und eine Kooperation auf Augenhöhe.
Propagation of information technology in the increasingly diverse domains, raises question concerning moral implications. While the number of ethical principles in the IT design is growing, they do not necessarily apply to specific products, which means developers and e.g. purchasing agent need to contextualize them for each specific IT product. This paper describes an actionable artifact that allows assessment of ethical non-functional requirements of an information system through operationalization of ethical values, Ethical Software Assessment Tool (ESAT). It is based on a survey of values that are currently considered in research and practice as well as in legal initiatives in IT context. The ethical approach and principles operationalized in ESAT are presented and discussed.
Illuminated bridges have become important assets to navigable aquatic systems. However, if artificial light at night (ALAN) from illuminated bridges reaches aquatic habitats, such as rivers, it can threaten the river's natural heterogeneity and alter the behavioural responses of migratory fish. Here, via a pilot study, we quantified levels of ALAN at illuminated bridges that cross a river and, propose a conceptual model to estimate its potential implications on two migrating fish species with contrasting life histories. Night-time light measurements on the river Spree in Berlin were performed continuously along a transect and in detail at seven illuminated bridges. Photometric data of the pilot study showed rapidly increased and decreased light levels at several illuminated bridges from which we derived several model illumination scenarios. These illumination scenarios and their potential effect on migrating Atlantic salmon smolts (Salmo salar) and European silver eel (Anguilla anguilla) are presented as a conceptual model, considering illuminated bridges as behavioural barriers to fish migration. ALAN's adverse effects on freshwater habitats must be better researched, understood, managed, and properly communicated to develop future sustainable lighting practices and policies that preserve riverscapes and their biodiversity.

Sichtweiten in der Atmosphäre reichen von wenigen Metern im Nebel bis zu einigen hundert Kilometern bei extrem guten Fernsichtbedingungen. Die zugrundeliegende Physik geht vom Wahrnehmungskontrast aus. Dieser ändert sich mit der Entfernung entlang der Sichtlinie zwischen Objekt und Auge aufgrund von Lichtstreuung und Absorption an den Bestandteilen der Atmosphäre. Dazu kommt bei der Fernsicht die Refraktion, die es erlaubt, auch über den durch die Kugelform der Erde geometrisch bedingten Horizont hinaus zu sehen.
A unified understanding of terms and their applicability is essential for every scientific discipline: steganography is no exception. Being divided into several domains (for instance, text steganography, digital media steganography, and network steganography), it is crucial to provide a unified terminology as well as a taxonomy that is not limited to some specific applications or areas. A prime attempt towards a unified understanding of terms was conducted in 2015 with the introduction of a pattern-based taxonomy for network steganography. Six years later, in 2021, the first work towards a pattern-based taxonomy for steganography was proposed. However, this initial attempt still faced several shortcomings, e.g., the lack of patterns for several steganography domains (the work mainly focused on network steganography and covert channels), various terminology issues, and the need of providing a tutorial on how the taxonomy can be used during engineering and scientific tasks, including the paper-writing process.</p>
<p>As the consortium who published this initial 2021-study on steganography patterns, in this paper we present the first comprehensive pattern-based taxonomy tailored to fit all known domains of steganography, including smaller and emerging areas, such as filesystem steganography and cyber-physical systems steganography. Besides, to make our contribution more effective and promote the use of the taxonomy to advance research on steganography, we also provide a thorough tutorial on its utilization. </p>

1. Introduction

With the release of the Apple iPhone 12 Pro Max in 2020, various features were integrated that make it attractive as a recording device for scene-related computer graphics pipelines. The captured Apple RAW images have a much higher dynamic range than the standard 8-bit images. Since a scene-based workflow naturally has an extended dynamic range (HDR), the Apple RAW recordings can be well integrated. To correctly integrate the iPhone 12 pro Apple RAW data into a scene-related workflow, two command-line software solutions, among others, are dcraw and rawtoaces. In this paper, we concentrate on dcraw. dcraw offers the possibility to export RAW images directly to ACES2065-1. Different images recorded under different lighting conditions are examined to determine which options for the dcraw development produce the best results. Images from five different lighting situations like D65, D60, D55, D50, and 2980K, are examined. The DNG files are developed using different methods within dcraw. The values of the recorded ColorChecker24 patches are compared to reference values derived from BabelColor [1] and ACES [2].
In this work, the most relevant 3D LiDAR technologies and their applications in 2022 were investigated. For this purpose, applications of LiDAR systems were classified into the typical application areas "3D modeling", "smart city", "robotics", "smart automotive" and "consumer goods". The investigation has shown that neither "mechanical" LiDAR technologies, nor so-called solid-state LiDAR technologies, nor "hybrid" LiDAR technologies can be evaluated as optimal for the typical application areas. In none of the application areas could all of the elaborated requirements be met. However, the "hybrid" LiDAR technologies such as sequential MEMS LiDAR technology and sequential flash LiDAR technology proved to be among the most suitable for most typical application areas. However, other technologies also tended to be suitable for individual typical application areas. Finally, it was found that several of the LiDAR technologies investigated are currently equally suitable for some typical application areas. To evaluate the suitability, concrete LiDAR systems - of different technologies and properties - were compared with the specific requirements of exemplary applications of an application area. The results of the investigation provide an orientation as to which LiDAR technology is promising for which application area.
In this study, we have investigated the form of velocity and pressure functions of a fluid oscillating between two parallel glass sheets that form a circular Hele-Shaw cell. The flow has been considered to be radial, incompressible and laminar. The time-dependent Navier-Stokes equation has been solved in cylindrical coordinates using Fourier transform, and the oscillating flow velocity across the thickness of the cell has been obtained at different times. The flow velocity function in the unsteady state is related to the vertical component of the coordinates in the form of parabolic functions and also to the inverse of the radial component. The time dependence appears as a simple harmonic with a frequency equal to the oscillation frequency. The velocity of the flow is maximum at the middle of the cell along its height and gradually decreases from the middle towards the top or bottom plane and reaches zero. Pressure does not depend on the height and changes logarithmically with the radius. The dependence of pressure on time is also a simple harmonic with the external frequency, but it has a phase shift with respect to the velocity.
The Patellostabilometer: A New Device for Quantification of Mediolateral Patella Displacement
(2023)
Mediolateral patella displacement is of interest for diagnostics and clinically relevant
research questions. Apart from manual testing, no standardized method is currently available. Proper
quantification of patella mobility is necessary to better understand pathologies at the patellofemoral
joint. Patella mobility was assessed in 25 healthy individuals using a Patellostabilometer, a new
prototype instrument for quantification of the mediolateral patella displacement. The participants
underwent measurements of the mediolateral displacement three times using the Patellostabilome-
ter. A maximal force of 10 N was applied for patella movement. Additionally, leg length and
circumference of the knee, upper- and lower-leg were measured. Lateral patella displacement of
18.27 ± 3.76 mm (range 15.85–20.64 mm, interquartile range (IQR) of 4.79) was measured. The medial
patella displacement showed 24.47 ± 6.59 mm (range 19.29–29.76 mm, IQR of 10.47). The test–retest
measurement error was 2.32 ± 1.76 mm (IQR of 2.38 mm), with five outliers. There was greater
test–retest variability between the measurements of the medial displacement compared to the lateral
one. The test–retest variability reached 7% of the patella displacement. Other parameters provided no
significant correlations. Based on the natural patellofemoral mobility, a precise and clinically relevant
quantification of patella mobility is allowed.
The public sector faces several challenges, such as a number of external and internal demands for change, citizens' dissatisfaction and frustration with public sector organizations, that need to be addressed. An alternative to the traditional top-down development of public services is co-creation of public services. Co-creation promotes collaboration between stakeholders with the aim to create better public services and achieve public values. At the same time, data analytics has been fuelled by the availability of immense amounts of textual data. Whilst both co-creation and TA have been used in the private sector, we study existing works on the application of Text Analytics (TA) techniques on text data to support public service co-creation. We systematically review 75 of the 979 papers that focus directly or indirectly on the application of TA in the context of public service development. In our review, we analyze the TA techniques, the public service they support, public value outcomes, and the co-creation phase they are used in. Our findings indicate that the TA implementation for co-creation is still in its early stages and thus still limited. Our research framework promotes the concept and stimulates the strengthening of the role of Text Analytics techniques to support public sector organisations and their use of co-creation process. From policy-makers' and public administration managers' standpoints, our findings and the proposed research framework can be used as a guideline in developing a strategy for the designing co-created and user-centred public services.
We present a method for the arbitrage-free interpolation of plain-vanilla option prices and implied volatilities, which is based on a system of integral equations that relates terminal density and option prices. Using a discretization of the terminal density, we write these integral equations as a system of linear equations. We show that the kernel matrix of this system is, in general, ill-conditioned, so that it cannot be solved for the discretized density using a naive approach. Instead, we construct a sparse model for the kernel matrix using singular value decomposition (SVD), which allows us not only to systematically improve the condition number of the kernel matrix, but also determines the computational effort and accuracy of our method. In order to allow for the treatment of realistic inputs that may contain arbitrage, we reformulate the system of linear equations as an optimization problem, in which the SVD-transformed density minimizes the error between the input prices and the arbitrage-free prices generated by our method. To further stabilize the method in the presence of noisy input prices or arbitrage, we apply an 𝐿1-regularization to the SVD-transformed density. Our approach, which is inspired by recent progress in theoretical physics, offers a flexible and efficient framework for the arbitrage-free interpolation of plain-vanilla option prices and implied volatilities, without the need to explicitly specify a stochastic process, expansion basis functions or any other kind of model. We demonstrate the capabilities of our method in a number of artificial and realistic test cases.
Disclinations or disclination clusters in smectic C freely suspended films with topological charges larger than one are unstable. They disintegrate, preferably in a spatially symmetric fashion, into single defects with individual charges of +1, which is the smallest positive topological charge allowed in polar vector fields. While the opposite process of defect annihilation is well-defined by the initial defect positions, disintegration starts from a singular state and the following scenario including the emerging regular defect patterns must be selected by specific mechanisms. We analyze experimental data and compare them with a simple model where the defect clusters adiabatically pass quasi-equilibrium solutions in one-constant approximation. It is found that the defects arrange in geometrical patterns that correspond very closely to superimposed singular defect solutions, without additional director distortions. The patterns expand by affine transformations where all distances between individual defects scale with the same time-dependent scaling factor proportional to the square-root of time.
Layered van der Waals ferromagnets, which preserve their magnetic properties down to exfoliated monolayers, are fueling an abundance of fundamental research and nanoscale device demonstration. CrGeTe3 is a prime example of this class of materials. Its temperature-pressure phase diagram features an insulator-to-metal transition and a significant increase in ferromagnetic Curie-Weiss temperatures upon entering the metallic state. We use density functional theory to understand the magnetic exchange interactions in CrGeTe3 at ambient and elevated pressures. We calculate Heisenberg exchange couplings, which provide the correct ferromagnetic ground state and explain the experimentally observed pressure dependence of magnetism in CrGeTe3. Furthermore, we combine density functional theory with dynamical mean-field theory to investigate the effects of electronic correlations and the nature of the high-pressure metallic state in CrGeTe3.
We investigate micrometer-sized flat droplets consisting of an isotropic core surrounded by a nematic rim in freely suspended smectic A liquid-crystal films. In contrast to purely isotropic droplets which are characterized by a sharp edge and no long-range interactions, the nematic fringe introduces a continuous film thickness change resulting in long-range mutual attraction of droplets. The coalescence scenario is divided in two phases. The first one consists in the fusion of the nematic regions. The second phase involves the dissolution of a thin nematic film between the two isotropic cores. The latter has many similarities with the rupture of thin liquid films between droplets coalescing in an immiscible viscous liquid.
Coalescence of biphasic droplets in free-standing smectic films is controlled in part by the rupture of a thin nematic membrane separating the isotropic droplet cores.
Fast protein and metabolite liquid chromatography (FPLMC) was introduced years ago to enable the easy separation of high-molecular compounds such as proteins from small molecules and the identification of the low-molecular substances. In this paper, the method is applied for the rapid evaluation of freshness and monitoring the aging of animal meat and fish. A novel chromatographic sensor was developed with a deep UV LED-based photometric detection unit (255–265 nm), an original flow cuvette and registration scheme; the processing of a chromatogram with the sensor takes approximately 15 min. Strict isochronism between the elution of ATP metabolites, mainly hypoxanthine (Hx) and inosine monophosphate (IMP), and the time of maturation of meat or fish, was discovered. A new freshness index H* = [Hx]/[IMP] was introduced, which is proportional to the instrumental delay time in the FPMLC chromatograms: the H* index < 0.5 indicates the presence of inosine monophosphate (IMP) and the high quality of the meat or fish. Reasonably strong correlations were revealed between data obtained by FPMLC and total volatile basic nitrogen TVB-N (for fish) or volatile fatty acids VFA (for meat) content. Moreover, putative nucleotide salvage and an increase in the concentration of IMP were observed in fish after heat treatment using the FPMLC sensor and NMR technique.
The problem of increasing the efficiency of existing photodetectors and creating their new types attracts much research attention. Among new photodetector types are photosensitive structures based on cascade concentrators, whose operational principle involves the absorption of optical radiation followed by its reemission at a longer wavelength and radiation concentration onto a highly efficient small-area photodetector. The absorption and re-emission spectra of each cascade layer depend on the characteristics of the material used. Сolloidal quantum dots are among the most promising materials for cascade layers due to their manufacturing technology, which provides for accurate control over the photoluminescence maximum position. It seems highly relevant to develop and to study photosensitive structures with cascade concentrators of various shapes based on CdS, CdSe/ZnS, and PbS colloidal quantum dots. Aim . To develop photosensitive structures with a wide-range sensitivity spectrum based on concentrators containing arrays of metal chalcogenide CQDs and to study their characteristics. Materials and methods . Cascade photosensitive structures were manufactured based on layers made of polymethyl methacrylate and layers of colloidal quantum dots embedded in a polystyrene matrix. Results . Three-layer concentrators were manufactured with different colloidal quantum dots in each concentrator layers. A 22 % increase in the output power was observed for a three-layer cascade structure based on different cascade layer materials compared to a similar structure using a single layer concentrator. Conclusion . The conducted studies showed an increase in the efficiency of photosensitive structures with a cascade concentrator based on colloidal quantum dots of various types (CdS, CdSe/ZnS, and PbS) in the cascade layers.
This scientific paper deals with the question of to what extent the deglobalization of raw materials will have an impact on Germany. For this purpose, a general understanding of the terms “globalization” and “deglobalization” will be provided. In addition, the drivers and challenges of (de)globalization are explained in more detail. The question was then examined based on specific case studies, which are decisive for today's prosperity and are predominantly imported. This includes gases, oils, and rare earths. The paper distinguishes between the effects of a loss of these resources on Germany, if the deglobalization takes place slowly and planned or unplanned and fast. The effects are then considered at three different levels: at the government level, at the corporate level, and at the population level. At the corporate level, the focus was primarily on the largest German industries. Each of the case studies ends with possible hypothetical scenarios that do not have to happen but could happen in the worst case. The scenarios show how bad things can get and provide an answer to the scientific question of how deglobalization in the case study could affect Germany.
This research paper examines the potential consequences of AI technology on democratic systems. The study focuses on two main areas: the weakening of the media and the emergence of "smart dictatorship." The paper examines the ways in which AI can be used to supervise, manipulate, and frustrate the media, thereby weakening its role as a check on government and corporate power. The study also explores how AI technology can be used to create an "omnidirectional monitoring" society, where individuals are constantly monitored and controlled through the use of "panopticon" techniques and "social bots". This can lead to the emergence of a "postdemocratic" society, characterized by growing inequality, dehumanization, and the
manipulation of information on online media platforms. The research methodology adopted in the study is qualitative, using expert interviews with three experts who
discussed the overall use of AI and its disruptive effects on democracy, such as the creation of fake news, filter bubbles, and algorithm bias. In conclusion, this research highlights the need for increased awareness and regulation of AI technology to ensure its responsible use and to protect democratic values.
Education lies at the foot of economic growth and human development. However, an increase in population tends to put a strain on existing education systems, especially in Africa where most countries are characterized by slow economic development, rapid population growth rates and a median age just shy of 20 years. Due to the slow rate of economic growth, many African countries lack the financial capability to provide proper education for their ever-growing populations or even already overpopulated regions, many of which have people who have reached the appropriate school-going age. This leads to a series of disruptive impacts on the education systems resulting in a people who are poorly or improperly educated, and thus are not equipped with the necessary skills required for the vast technical, professional and ever modernizing high-skill job markets such as construction, economic and technical professions, teaching occupations and so on, all of which drive economic growth and development. Therefore, we can see that rapid population growth, if left unchecked, may lead to overpopulation scenarios which could have a negative disruptive impact on education and human development, both of which are important factors necessary for economic growth.
Key words: Population, education, Africa, poverty, economy, development.
The German government's initiative to cover 80% of the gross electricity supply with renewable energies by 2050 brings considerable ecological benefits, but also poses several challenges. One of these challenges is the growing number of photovoltaic systems (PV systems), which, due to their high feed-in power, already pose a risk to the security of the electricity distribution grid during long periods of sunny weather. To counteract this, active research is being carried out in the field of PV power forecasting. This research is primarily aimed at providing the grid operator with a predicted power output, which enables a longer planning horizon and thus increases the operational grid security. However, the considerable annual electricity consumption of private households and the increasing spread of PV systems for self-consumption show that the energy behavior of households, especially self-consumption, also influences grid security. Additionally, households have an incentive to boost their self-consumption because the cost of drawing each kilowatt-hour from the grid is substantially higher than the compensation received for injecting an equivalent amount of energy back into the grid. However, as of now, there is no software available that easily enables households to tailor the usage patterns of their electrical appliances according to a photovoltaic (PV) forecast. The project described here aims to close this gap by creating such software. Various PV forecasting models are used and tested for their suitability for this purpose. A self-generated optimization process is implemented in this project to optimize the consumer configuration based on the PV forecasts. The here-developed tool enables the user to enter parameters for his PV system and the specific load profiles of his electrical appliances. Based on this data, the optimization algorithm determines a consumption plan with a forecast horizon until the end of the next day that maximizes the user's self-consumption. To validate the tool, the optimization process is carried out over a period of 60 days using a predefined scenario and the results are compared with a scenario in which the electrical appliances are intuitively operated at midday. The analysis of these results ultimately shows the potential impact of such a tool on the economic efficiency of private households and the supply stability.
This study examines the impact of Artificial Light at Night (ALAN) on two coral species, Acropora eurystoma and Pocillopora damicornis, in the Gulf of Aqaba/Eilat Red Sea, assessing their natural isotopic responses to highlight changes in energy and nutrient sourcing due to sensory light pollution. Our findings indicate significant disturbances in photosynthetic processes in Acropora eurystoma, as evidenced by shifts in δ13C values under ALAN, pointing to alterations in carbon distribution or utilization. In Pocillopora damicornis, similar trends were observed, with changes in δ13C and δ15N values suggesting a disruption in its nitrogen cycle and feeding strategies.
The study also uncovers species-specific variations in heterotrophic feeding, a crucial factor in coral resilience under environmental stress, contributing to the corals' fixed carbon budget. Light measurements across the Gulf demonstrated a gradient of light pollution which possess the potential of affecting marine biology in the region. ALAN was found to disrupt natural diurnal tentacle behaviors in both coral species, crucial for prey capture and nutrient acquisition, thereby impacting their isotopic composition and health.
Echoing previous research, our study underscores the need to consider each species' ecological and physiological contexts when assessing the impacts of anthropogenic changes. The findings offer important insights into the complexities of marine ecosystems under environmental stress and highlight the urgency of developing effective mitigation strategies.
The energy transfer between bouncing particles and rigid boundaries during impacts is crucially influenced not only by restitution coefficients of the material but also by particle shapes. This is particularly important when such particles are mechanically agitated with vibrating plates. Inertial measurement units are able to measure all acceleration and rotational velocity components of an object and store these data for subsequent analysis. We employ them to measure the dynamics of cubes and icosahedra on vibrating plates to study the efficiency of energy transfer into the individual degrees of freedom (DOFs) of the excited object. The rotational DOFs turn out to be much less excited than the vertical translational motion. Most remarkably, there is only little difference between the two Platonic solids in both the absolute energies and the energy partition ratios.
Deutsche Telekom, one of the world's leading integrated telecommunications companies, has recently shifted its focus in event marketing to prioritize more personal co-creational communication on regional occasions, rather than largescale events. This paper outlines the three-part LAW-principle that Deutsche Telekom follows in its brand communication in Germany, providing examples for each of the three pillars. The co-creation resulting from brand communication is changing the role of marketing and brand practitioners. They are now required to negotiate with various stakeholders.
Finding an optimal balance between risk and returns in investment portfolios is a central challenge in quantitative finance, often addressed through Markowitz portfolio theory (MPT). While traditional portfolio optimization is carried out in a continuous fashion, as if stocks could be bought in fractional increments, practical implementations often resort to approximations, as fractional stocks are typically not tradeable. While these approximations are effective for large investment budgets, they deteriorate as budgets decrease. To alleviate this issue, a discrete Markowitz portfolio theory (DMPT) with finite budgets and integer stock weights can be formulated, but results in a non-polynomial (NP)-hard problem. Recent progress in quantum processing units (QPUs), including quantum annealers, makes solving DMPT problems feasible. Our study explores portfolio optimization on quantum annealers, establishing a mapping between continuous and discrete Markowitz portfolio theories. We find that correctly normalized discrete portfolios converge to continuous solutions as budgets increase. Our DMPT implementation provides efficient frontier solutions, outperforming traditional rounding methods, even for moderate budgets. Responding to the demand for environmentally and socially responsible investments, we enhance our discrete portfolio optimization with ESG (environmental, social, governance) ratings for EURO STOXX 50 index stocks. We introduce a utility function incorporating ESG ratings to balance risk, return and ESG friendliness, and discuss implications for ESG-aware investors.
Light pollution has increased globally, with 80% of the total population now living under light-polluted skies. In this Review, we elucidate the scope and importance of light pollution and discuss techniques to monitor it. In urban areas, light emissions from sources such as street lights lead to a zenith radiance 40 times larger than that of an unpolluted night sky. Non-urban areas account for over 50% of the total night-time light observed by satellites, with contributions from sources such as transportation networks and resource extraction. Artificial light can disturb the migratory and reproductive behaviours of animals even at the low illuminances from diffuse skyglow. Additionally, lighting (indoor and outdoor) accounts for 20% of global electricity consumption and 6% of CO2 emissions, leading to indirect environmental impacts and a financial cost. However, existing monitoring techniques can only perform a limited number of measurements throughout the night and lack spectral and spatial resolution. Therefore, satellites with improved spectral and spatial resolution are needed to enable time series analysis of light pollution trends throughout the night.
Artificial light at night originating from bridge illumination can cause polarised light pollution when it is reflected at water body surfaces. This alters the optical conditions of a river at night and potentially interferes with natural polarisation signals from, for example, moonlight. Therefore, this type of light pollution could detrimentally change the behaviour of organisms sensitive to polarised light, a navigational cue and signal known to be used e.g. by flying water-seeking insects to detect suitable aquatic habitats to reproduce and lay eggs. So far, polarised light pollution from artificial light at night is understudied. Here, we quantify polarised light pollution at the water’s surface near seven illuminated bridges crossing the river Spree in Berlin. Our measurements show for the first time, that nocturnal bridge illumination induces polarised light pollution towards potential flying paths of polarotactic aquatic insects. On average, around 9% of the water surfaces at the investigated bridges were highly polluted by polarised light, with values ranging between 3 and 12 % for each bridge. Thus, polarised light pollution from artificial light at night is an emergent pollutant for aquatic systems. Future work on this topic should include more comprehensive measurements, further ecological studies on its impacts and the development of sustainable lighting solutions that can contribute to the protection of riverine nightscapes.
Live music is often linked to elaborate light shows, particularly at large outdoor music festivals. However, artificial light at night is one form of environmental pollution, light pollution, and because outdoor festivals emit a substantial amount of artificial light into the environment, they are a potential source of light pollution. So far, no studies that quantified the impact of such festivals on urban light pollution and skyglow exist. Here, the light pollution produced by a major rock festival (Lollapalooza Berlin 2016 with 70,000 visitors per day in an urban park) was investigated with ground-based radiometry and night-time light data. A small night-sky radiometer installed near the main stages and a calibrated digital camera from a nearby observation spot inside of the park were used to quantify changes in night sky brightness and direct light emissions within the park. The impact of the music festival on the urban skyglow was indeed measurable. Zenith luminance increased locally by up to a factor of 8 and illuminance increased by about 50% at the observation spot within the park. The radiance detected by night-time satellite was also increased during the festival. This is the first time, that light pollution from such a major rock music event was quantified.
Coarsening of Quasi Two-Dimensional Emulsions Formed by Islands in Free-Standing Smectic Films
(2024)
We study the coarsening behavior of assemblies of islands on smectic A freely suspended films in ISS microgravity experiments. The islands can be regarded as liquid inclusions in a two-dimensional fluid in analogy to liquid droplets of the discontinuous phase of an emulsion. The coarsening is effectuated by two processes, predominantly by island coalescence, but to some extend also by Ostwald ripening, whereby large islands grow at the expense of surrounding smaller ones. A peculiarity of this system is that the continuous and the discontinuous phases consist of the same material. We determine the dynamics, analyze the self-similar aging of the island size distribution and discuss characteristic exponents of the mean island growth.
Smectic islands on a thin freely suspended smectic film form a quasi two-dimensional emulsion, without a liquid subphase. We describe the coarsening dynamics that involves island coalescence and Ostwald ripening.
The 300th birthday of the world-famous German philosopher Immanuel Kant (1724-1804) in 2024 offers an extraordinary opportunity to explore integrating advanced technologies into cultural mega-events. This paper examines the opportunities and challenges of using various technologies, such as Extended Reality (XR) and Visual Effects (VFX), to bring this essential European intellectual to a broader audience. These technologies, including technological advances based on real-time rendering in conjunction with LED volumes and high-quality 3D assets, offer immersive and interactive event experiences. However, the use of these technologies presents specific challenges, such as processing limitations and the need to create specialized content, including the development of 3D models relevant to the life and philosophy of Immanuel Kant. This article provides an overview of the current state of such opportunities and challenges and examines their application in the context of this cultural mega-event. The aim is to create a compelling event experience, e.g., as part of a museum visit, while simultaneously using technology in a meaningful educational way. It is essential not to overload historical and intellectual personalities such as Immanuel Kant with technological possibilities in the sense of an ethical responsibility. At the same time, the creation and communication of knowledge require explanation in a museum context or another explanatory framework.
The attraction of insects to artificial light is a global environmental problem with far-reaching implications for ecosystems. Since light pollution is rarely integrated into conservation approaches, effective mitigation strategies towards environmentally friendly lighting that drastically reduce insect attraction are urgently needed. Here, we tested novel luminaires in two experiments (i) at a controlled experimental field site and (ii) on streets within three municipalities. The luminaires are individually tailored to only emit light onto the target area and to reduce spill light. In addition, a customized shielding renders the light source nearly invisible beyond the lit area. We show that these novel luminaires significantly reduce the attraction effect on flying insects compared to different conventional luminaires with the same illuminance on the ground. This underlines the huge potential of spatially optimized lighting to help to bend the curve of global insect decline without compromising human safety aspects. A customized light distribution should therefore be part of sustainable future lighting concepts, most relevant in the vicinity of protected areas.
