Discovering such combinations is a fundamental research problem and has many different data management and knowledge discovery applications. Existing discovery algorithms are either brute force or have a high memory load and can thus be applied only to small datasets or samples. In this paper, the wellknown GORDIAN algorithm and "Apriori-based" algorithms are compared and analyzed for further optimization. We greatly improve the Apriori algorithms through efficient candidate generation and statistics-based pruning methods. A hybrid solution HCAGORDIAN combines the advantages of GORDIAN and our new algorithm HCA, and it significantly outperforms all previous work in many situations.}, language = {en} } @book{AdamBrehmerHuettenrauchetal.2006, author = {Adam, Christian and Brehmer, Bastian and H{\"u}ttenrauch, Stefan and Jeske, Janin and Polze, Andreas and Rasche, Andreas and Sch{\"u}ler, Benjamin and Schult, Wolfgang}, title = {Aspektorientierte Programmierung : {\"U}berblick {\"u}ber Techniken und Werkzeuge}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}tsverlag Potsdam}, address = {Potsdam}, isbn = {978-3-939469-23-0}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus-33796}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}t Potsdam}, pages = {88}, year = {2006}, abstract = {Inhaltsverzeichnis 1 Einf{\"u}hrung 2 Aspektorientierte Programmierung 2.1 Ein System als Menge von Eigenschaften 2.2 Aspekte 2.3 Aspektweber 2.4 Vorteile Aspektorientierter Programmierung 2.5 Kategorisierung der Techniken und Werkzeuge f ¨ ur Aspektorientierte Programmierung 3 Techniken und Werkzeuge zur Analyse Aspektorientierter Softwareprogramme 3.1 Virtual Source File 3.2 FEAT 3.3 JQuery 3.4 Aspect Mining Tool 4 Techniken und Werkzeuge zum Entwurf Aspektorientierter Softwareprogramme 4.1 Concern Space Modeling Schema 4.2 Modellierung von Aspekten mit UML 4.3 CoCompose 4.4 Codagen Architect 5 Techniken und Werkzeuge zur Implementierung Aspektorientierter Softwareprogramme 5.1 Statische Aspektweber 5.2 Dynamische Aspektweber 6 Zusammenfassung}, language = {de} } @book{AdrianoBleifussChengetal.2019, author = {Adriano, Christian and Bleifuß, Tobias and Cheng, Lung-Pan and Diba, Kiarash and Fricke, Andreas and Grapentin, Andreas and Jiang, Lan and Kovacs, Robert and Krejca, Martin Stefan and Mandal, Sankalita and Marwecki, Sebastian and Matthies, Christoph and Mattis, Toni and Niephaus, Fabio and Pirl, Lukas and Quinzan, Francesco and Ramson, Stefan and Rezaei, Mina and Risch, Julian and Rothenberger, Ralf and Roumen, Thijs and Stojanovic, Vladeta and Wolf, Johannes}, title = {Technical report}, number = {129}, editor = {Meinel, Christoph and Plattner, Hasso and D{\"o}llner, J{\"u}rgen Roland Friedrich and Weske, Mathias and Polze, Andreas and Hirschfeld, Robert and Naumann, Felix and Giese, Holger and Baudisch, Patrick and Friedrich, Tobias and B{\"o}ttinger, Erwin and Lippert, Christoph}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}tsverlag Potsdam}, address = {Potsdam}, isbn = {978-3-86956-465-4}, issn = {1613-5652}, doi = {10.25932/publishup-42753}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-427535}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}t Potsdam}, pages = {vi, 267}, year = {2019}, abstract = {Design and Implementation of service-oriented architectures imposes a huge number of research questions from the fields of software engineering, system analysis and modeling, adaptability, and application integration. Component orientation and web services are two approaches for design and realization of complex web-based system. Both approaches allow for dynamic application adaptation as well as integration of enterprise application. Commonly used technologies, such as J2EE and .NET, form de facto standards for the realization of complex distributed systems. Evolution of component systems has lead to web services and service-based architectures. This has been manifested in a multitude of industry standards and initiatives such as XML, WSDL UDDI, SOAP, etc. All these achievements lead to a new and promising paradigm in IT systems engineering which proposes to design complex software solutions as collaboration of contractually defined software services. Service-Oriented Systems Engineering represents a symbiosis of best practices in object-orientation, component-based development, distributed computing, and business process management. It provides integration of business and IT concerns. The annual Ph.D. Retreat of the Research School provides each member the opportunity to present his/her current state of their research and to give an outline of a prospective Ph.D. thesis. Due to the interdisciplinary structure of the research school, this technical report covers a wide range of topics.

ETL workflows populate those systems with data from various data sources by specifying and executing a DAG of transformations. Over time, hundreds of individual workflows evolve as new sources and new requirements are integrated into the system. The maintenance and evolution of large-scale ETL systems requires much time and manual effort. A key problem is to understand the meaning of unfamiliar attribute labels in source and target databases and ETL transformations. Hard-to-understand attribute labels lead to frustration and time spent to develop and understand ETL workflows. We present a schema decryption technique to support ETL developers in understanding cryptic schemata of sources, targets, and ETL transformations. For a given ETL system, our recommender-like approach leverages the large number of mapped attribute labels in existing ETL workflows to produce good and meaningful decryptions. In this way we are able to decrypt attribute labels consisting of a number of unfamiliar few-letter abbreviations, such as UNP_PEN_INT, which we can decrypt to UNPAID_PENALTY_INTEREST. We evaluate our schema decryption approach on three real-world repositories of ETL workflows and show that our approach is able to suggest high-quality decryptions for cryptic attribute labels in a given schema.}, language = {en} } @book{AlnemrPolyvyanyyAbuJarouretal.2010, author = {Alnemr, Rehab and Polyvyanyy, Artem and AbuJarour, Mohammed and Appeltauer, Malte and Hildebrandt, Dieter and Thomas, Ivonne and Overdick, Hagen and Sch{\"o}bel, Michael and Uflacker, Matthias and Kluth, Stephan and Menzel, Michael and Schmidt, Alexander and Hagedorn, Benjamin and Pascalau, Emilian and Perscheid, Michael and Vogel, Thomas and Hentschel, Uwe and Feinbube, Frank and Kowark, Thomas and Tr{\"u}mper, Jonas and Vogel, Tobias and Becker, Basil}, title = {Proceedings of the 4th Ph.D. Retreat of the HPI Research School on Service-oriented Systems Engineering}, editor = {Meinel, Christoph and Plattner, Hasso and D{\"o}llner, J{\"u}rgen Roland Friedrich and Weske, Mathias and Polze, Andreas and Hirschfeld, Robert and Naumann, Felix and Giese, Holger}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}tsverlag Potsdam}, address = {Potsdam}, isbn = {978-3-86956-036-6}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus-40838}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}t Potsdam}, pages = {Getr.

With context-oriented programming (COP), such context-dependent behavioral variations can be explicitly modularized and dynamically activated. In general, COP could be used to manage any context-specific behavior. However, its contemporary realizations limit the control of dynamic adaptation. This, in turn, limits the interaction of COP's adaptation mechanisms with widely used architectures, such as event-based, mobile, and distributed programming. The JCop programming language extends Java with language constructs for context-oriented programming and additionally provides a domain-specific aspect language for declarative control over runtime adaptations. As a result, these redesigned implementations are more concise and better modularized than their counterparts using plain COP. JCop's main features have been described in our previous publications. However, a complete language specification has not been presented so far.

For governments that run whole countries, this means asking all citizens for their views to consider their situations and needs. Organizations such as Africa's Voices Foundation, who want to facilitate communication between decision-makers and citizens of a country, have difficulty mediating between these groups. To enable understanding, statements need to be summarized and visualized. Accomplishing these goals in a way that does justice to the citizens' voices and situations proves challenging. Standard charts do not help this cause as they fail to create empathy for the people behind their graphical abstractions. Furthermore, these charts do not create trust in the data they are representing as there is no way to see or navigate back to the underlying code and the original data. To fulfill these functions, visualizations would highly benefit from interactions to explore the displayed data, which standard charts often only limitedly provide. To help improve the understanding of people's voices, we developed and categorized 80 ideas for new visualizations, new interactions, and better connections between different charts, which we present in this report. From those ideas, we implemented 10 prototypes and two systems that integrate different visualizations. We show that this integration allows consistent appearance and behavior of visualizations. The visualizations all share the same main concept: representing each individual with a single dot. To realize this idea, we discuss technologies that efficiently allow the rendering of a large number of these dots. With these visualizations, direct interactions with representations of individuals are achievable by clicking on them or by dragging a selection around them. This direct interaction is only possible with a bidirectional connection from the visualization to the data it displays. We discuss different strategies for bidirectional mappings and the trade-offs involved. Having unified behavior across visualizations enhances exploration. For our prototypes, that includes grouping, filtering, highlighting, and coloring of dots. Our prototyping work was enabled by the development environment Lively4. We explain which parts of Lively4 facilitated our prototyping process. Finally, we evaluate our approach to domain problems and our developed visualization concepts. Our work provides inspiration and a starting point for visualization development in this domain. Our visualizations can improve communication between citizens and their government and motivate empathetic decisions. Our approach, combining low-level entities to create visualizations, provides value to an explorative and empathetic workflow. We show that the design space for visualizing this kind of data has a lot of potential and that it is possible to combine qualitative and quantitative approaches to data analysis.}, language = {en} } @book{BarkowskyGiese2023, author = {Barkowsky, Matthias and Giese, Holger}, title = {Modular and incremental global model management with extended generalized discrimination networks}, number = {154}, isbn = {978-3-86956-555-2}, issn = {1613-5652}, doi = {10.25932/publishup-57396}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-573965}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}t Potsdam}, pages = {63 -- 63}, year = {2023}, abstract = {Complex projects developed under the model-driven engineering paradigm nowadays often involve several interrelated models, which are automatically processed via a multitude of model operations. Modular and incremental construction and execution of such networks of models and model operations are required to accommodate efficient development with potentially large-scale models. The underlying problem is also called Global Model Management. In this report, we propose an approach to modular and incremental Global Model Management via an extension to the existing technique of Generalized Discrimination Networks (GDNs). In addition to further generalizing the notion of query operations employed in GDNs, we adapt the previously query-only mechanism to operations with side effects to integrate model transformation and model synchronization. We provide incremental algorithms for the execution of the resulting extended Generalized Discrimination Networks (eGDNs), as well as a prototypical implementation for a number of example eGDN operations. Based on this prototypical implementation, we experiment with an application scenario from the software development domain to empirically evaluate our approach with respect to scalability and conceptually demonstrate its applicability in a typical scenario. Initial results confirm that the presented approach can indeed be employed to realize efficient Global Model Management in the considered scenario.}, language = {en} } @book{BarkowskyGiese2023, author = {Barkowsky, Matthias and Giese, Holger}, title = {Triple graph grammars for multi-version models}, number = {155}, isbn = {978-3-86956-556-9}, issn = {1613-5652}, doi = {10.25932/publishup-57399}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-573994}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}t Potsdam}, pages = {28 -- 28}, year = {2023}, abstract = {Like conventional software projects, projects in model-driven software engineering require adequate management of multiple versions of development artifacts, importantly allowing living with temporary inconsistencies. In the case of model-driven software engineering, employed versioning approaches also have to handle situations where different artifacts, that is, different models, are linked via automatic model transformations. In this report, we propose a technique for jointly handling the transformation of multiple versions of a source model into corresponding versions of a target model, which enables the use of a more compact representation that may afford improved execution time of both the transformation and further analysis operations. Our approach is based on the well-known formalism of triple graph grammars and a previously introduced encoding of model version histories called multi-version models. In addition to showing the correctness of our approach with respect to the standard semantics of triple graph grammars, we conduct an empirical evaluation that demonstrates the potential benefit regarding execution time performance.}, language = {en} }
