In this thesis, an interactive application is developed for Android OS. The application is about a virtual-reality game. The game is settled in the genre of first-person shooters and takes place in a space scenario. By using a stereo renderer, it is possible to play the game combined with virtual-reality glasses.
For definite isolation and classification of important features in 3D multi-attribute volume data, multidimensional transfer functions are inalienable. Yet, when using multiple dimensions, the comprehension of the data and the interaction with it become a challenge. That- because neither the control of the versatile input parameters nor the visualization in a higher dimensional space are straightforward.
The goal of this thesis is the implementation of a transfer function editor which supports the creation of a multidimensional transfer function. Therefore different visualization and interaction techniques, like Parallel Coordinates, are used. Furthermore it will be possible to choose and combine the used dimensions interactively and the rendered volume will be adapted to the user interaction in real time.
Web application testing is an active research area. Garousi et al. did a systematic mapping study and classified 79 papers published between 2000-2011. However, there seems to be a lack of information exchange between the scientific community and tool developers.
This thesis systematically analyzes the field of functional, system level web application testing tools. 194 candidate tools were collected in the tool search and screened, with 23 tools being selected as foundation of this thesis. These 23 tools were systematically used to generate a feature model of the domain. The methodology to support this is an additional contribution of this thesis. It processes end user documentation of tools belonging to an examined domain and creates a feature model. The feature model gives an overview over the existing features, their alternatives and their distribution. It can be used to identify trends and problems, extraordinary features, help decision making of tool purchase or guide scientists how to focus research.
Thematik dieser Arbeit ist das dreidimensionale Image-Warping für diffuse und reflektierende Oberflächen. Das Warpingverfahren für den reflektierenden Fall gibt es erst seit 2014. Bei diesem neuen Algorithmus treten Artefakte auf, sobald ein Bild für einen alternativen Blickwinkel auf eine sehr unebene Fläche berechnet werden soll.
In dieser Arbeit wird der Weg von einem Raytracer, der die Eingabetexturen erzeugt, über das Warpingverfahren für beide Arten der Oberflächen, bis zur Optimierung des Reflective-Warping-Verfahrens erarbeitet. Schließlich werden die Ergebnisse der Optimierung bewertet und in den aktuellen sowie zukünftigen Stand der Technik eingeordnet.
Information systems research has started to use crowdsourcing platforms such as Amazon Mechanical Turks (MTurk) for scientific research, recently. In particular, MTurk provides a scalable, cheap work-force that can also be used as a pool of potential respondents for online survey research. In light of the increasing use of crowdsourcing platforms for survey research, the authors aim to contribute to the understanding of its appropriate usage. Therefore, they assess if samples drawn from MTurk deviate from those drawn via conventional online surveys (COS) in terms of answers in relation to relevant e-commerce variables and test the data in a nomological network for assessing differences in effects.
The authors compare responses from 138 MTurk workers with those of 150 German shoppers recruited via COS. The findings indicate, inter alia, that MTurk workers tend to exhibit more positive word-of mouth, perceived risk, customer orientation and commitment to the focal company. The authors discuss the study- results, point to limitations, and provide avenues for further research.
This research examines information audit methodologies and information capturing methods for enterprise social software which are an elementary part of the audit process. Information auditing is lacking of a standardized definition and methodology because the scope of the audit process is diversified and dependent on the organization undertaking the audit. The benefits of information auditing and potential challenges of Enterprise 2.0 the audit can overcome are comprehensive and provide a major incentive for managers to conduct an audit. Information asset registers as a starting point for information auditing are not specifically focusing on social software assets. Therefore this research pro-ject combines asset registers from different areas to create a new register suitable for the requirements of Enterprise 2.0. The necssary adaptations caused by the new character of the assets are minor. The case study applying the asset register for the first time however reveals several problematic areas for information auditors completing the register. Rounding up the thesis a template is developed for setting up new work spaces on enterprise social software systems with appropriate metadata taking into account the meaningful metadata discovered in the asset register.
One task of executives and project managers in IT companies or departments is to hire suitable developers and to assign them to suitable problems. In this paper, we propose a new technique that directly leverages previous work experience of developers in a systematic manner. Existing evidence for developer expertise based on the version history of existing projects is analyzed. More specifically, we analyze the commits to a repository in terms of affected API usage. On these grounds, we associate APIs with developers and thus we assess API experience of developers. In transitive closure, we also assess programming domain experience.
Geographic cluster based routing in ad-hoc wireless sensor networks is a current field of research. Various algorithms to route in wireless ad-hoc networks based on position information already exist. Among them algorithms that use the traditional beaconing approach as well as algorithms that work beaconless (no information about the environment is required besides the own position and the destination). Geographic cluster based routing with guaranteed message delivery can be carried out on overlay graphs as well. Until now the required planar overlay graphs are not being constructed reactively.
This thesis proposes a reactive algorithm, the Beaconless Cluster Based Planarization (BCBP) algorithm, which constructs a planar overlay graph and noticeably reduces the number of messages required for that. Based on an algorithm for cluster based planarization it beaconlessly constructs a planar overlay graph in an unit disk graph (UDG). An UDG is a model for a wireless network in which every participant has the same sending radius. Evaluation of the algorithm shows it to be more efficient than the non beaconless variant. Another result of this thesis is the Beaconless LLRAP (BLLRAP) algorithm, for which planarity but not continued connectivity could be proven.
Nutzung von Big Data im Marketing : theoretische Grundlagen, Anwendungsfelder und Best-Practices
(2015)
Die zunehmende Digitalisierung des Alltags und die damit verbundene omnipräsente Datengenerierung bieten für Unternehmen und insbesondere Marketingabteilungen die Chance, Informationen in bisher ungekannter Fülle über ihre Kunden und Produkte zu erhalten. Die Gewinnung solcher Informationen aus riesigen Datenmengen, die durch neue Technologien ermöglicht wird, hat sich dabei unter dem Begriff Big Data etabliert.
Die vorliegende Arbeit analysiert diese Entwicklung im Hinblick auf das Potenzial für die unternehmerische Disziplin des Marketings. Dazu werden die theoretischen Grundlagen des Einsatzes von Big Data im Marketing identifiziert und daraus Anwendungsfelder und Best-Practice-Lösungen abgeleitet. Die Untersuchung basiert auf einer Literaturanalyse zu dem Thema Big Data Marketing, welche neben verschiedenen Studien und Befragungen auch Expertenmeinungen und Zukunftsprognosen einschließt. Die Literatur wird dabei zunächst auf die theoretischen Grundlagen des Konstrukts Big Data analysiert.
Anschließend wird die Eignung von Big Data Lösungen für den Einsatz in Unternehmen geprüft, bevor die Anwendung im Bereich des Marketings konkretisiert und analysiert wird. Es wurde dabei festgestellt, dass anhand der theoretischen Aspekte von Big Data eine starke Eignung für den Einsatz im Rahmen des Marketings besteht. Diese zeichnet sich vor allem durch die detaillierten Informationen über Verhaltensmuster von Kunden und ihre Kaufentscheidungen aus. Weiterhin wurden potenzielle Anwendungsfelder identifiziert, welche besonders im Bereich der Kundenorientierung und der Marktforschung liegen. Im Hinblick auf Best-Practice-Lösungen konnte ein grober Leitfaden für die Integration von Big Data in die Unternehmensorganisation entwickelt werden. Abschließend wurde festgehalten, dass das Thema Big Data eine hohe Relevanz für das Marketing aufweist und dies in der Zukunft maßgeblich mitbestimmen wird.
This thesis conducts a text and network analysis of criminological files. The specific focus during the research is the field money laundering. The analysis showed the most important concepts present in the text which were classified in eleven different classes. The relationships of those concepts were analysed using ego networks, key entity identification and clustering. Some of the statements given about money laundering could be validated by the findings of this analysis and their interpretation. Specific concepts like banks and organizations as well as foreign subsidiaries were identified. Aggregating these concepts with the statements in chapter 1.4.3 on the circular process of money laundering it can be stated that different organizations and individuals, present in the criminological files, were placing money through different banks, organizations and investments in the legal financial market. At last this thesis tries to validate the benefits of the used tools for the kind of conducted research process. An estimation on ORA's and Automap's applicability for this kind of research is given in the end.
