The internet is becoming more and more important in daily life. Fundamental changes can be observed in the private sector as well as in the public sector. In the course of this, active involvement of citizens in planning political procedures is more and more supported electronically. The expectations culminate in the assumption that information and communication technology (ICT) can enhance civic participation and reduce disenchantment with politics. Out of these expectations, a lot of eparticipation projects were initiated in Germany. Initiatives were established, e.g. the "Initiative eParticipation", which gave many incentives of electronic participation for policy and administration in order to strengthen decision-making processes with internet supported participation practices. This thesis consists of two major parts. In the first part, definitions of the essential terms are presented. The position of e-participation within the dimension of ebusiness is pointed out. In order to explain e-participation, basics of the classical offline participation are delivered. It will be shown that a change is in progress, not only because of the deployment of ICT. Subsequently, a framework to characterize eparticipation is presented. The European Union is encouraging the implementation of e-participation. So, the city of Koblenz should be no exception. But what is the current situation in Koblenz? To provide an answer to this question, the status quo was examined with the help of a survey among the citizens of Koblenz, which was developed, conducted and evaluated. This is the second major part of this thesis.
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.
Die vorliegende Diplomarbeit untersucht die Emergenz eines gemeinsam genutzten Lexikons anhand einer Implementierung des Modells von Edwin Hutchins und Brian Hazlehurst. Zunächst erläutert diese Arbeit das oben genannte Modell und analysiert sowohl verschiedene Simulationstechniken, insbesondere die der Multi-Agenten-Simulation, als auch den Aufbau und die Funktionalität künstlicher neuronaler Netze, welche als Hauptbestandteile des Modells angesehen werden können. Der Modellbeschreibung folgen Entwurf, Architektur und eine detaillierte Erläuterung der Implementierung des Werkzeugs LexLearn. LexLearn ist ein in Java komplett neu konzipiertes und implementiertes Programm und bietet dem Benutzer die Möglichkeit, die Emergenz einer gemeinsam genutzten Sprache innerhalb verschiedener Agentengemeinschaften zu simulieren und zu analysieren. In mehreren Simulationsdurchläufen werden sowohl die Ergebnisse von Edwin Hutchins und Brian Hazlehurst reproduziert als auch weitere Erkenntnisse durch neu erstellte Simulationen gewonnen.
In usage of information systems the maintenance of their actuality and their extensibility is of importance. There is a constant reoccurrence of situations, when these goals cannot be supported by keeping on the old system, the legacy system. A solution for that is its migration into a new environment. The migration of software is to be considered as a subdiscipline of software engineering, more precisely, as a part of software maintenance. In this thesis the reference migration process model ReMiP, introduced in another thesis of the institute, was applied. The goal of this examination is to bring this model to practice in a website migration project and to analyze its validity. Here, especially the subject of completeness and generalizability of the model for migration processes and the gathering of concrete experiences with the intensity of its activities is of interest. The target environment for the website migration will be the content management system Plone. Within this thesis it will be described thoroughly. Finally, the website to migrate will be brought to its new target environment. The result of this thesis is the migrated GXL-Website in the target system Plone using the ReMiP. By this migration, the ReMiP was successfully validated as a reference process model for software migrations.
In the last years the e-government concentrated on the administrative aspects of administrative modernisation. In the next step the e-discourses will gain in importance as an instrument of the public-friendliness and means of the e-democracy/e-participation. With growing acceptance of such e-discourses, these will fastly reach a complexity, which could not be mastered no more by the participants. Many impressions, which could be won from presence discussions, will be lacking now. Therefore the exposed thesis has the objective of the conception and the prototypical implementation of an instrument (discourse meter), by which the participants, in particular the moderators of the e-discourse, are capable to overlook the e-discourse at any time and by means of it, attain their discourse awareness. Discourse awareness of the present informs about the current action in the e-discourse and discourse awareness of the past about the past action, by which any trends become visible. The focus of the discourse awareness is located in the quantitative view of the action in the e-discourse. From the model of e-discourse, which is developed in this thesis, the questions of discourse awareness are resulting, whose concretion is the basis for the implementation of the discourse meter. The discourse sensors attached to the model of the e-discourse are recording the actions of the e-discourse, showing events of discourse, which are represented by the discourse meter in various forms of visualizations. The concept of discourse meter offers the possibility of discourse awareness relating to the present as monitoring and the discourse awareness relating to the past as query (quantitative analysis) to the moderators of the e-discourse.
