T1 - The construction of a common objective function for analytical infrastructures T2 - 2017 International Conference on Engineering, Technology and Innovation (ICE/ITMC) N2 - The paper deals with the increasing growth of embedded systems and their role within structures similar to the Internet (Internet of Things) as those that provide calculating power and are more or less appropriate for analytical tasks. Faced with the example of a cyber-physical manufacturing system, a common objective function is developed with the intention to measure efficient task processing within analytical infrastructures. A first validation is realized on base of an expert panel.

ED - Demange, Marc T1 - Optimal price reaction strategies in the presence of active and passive competitors T2 - Proceedings of the 6th International Conference on Operations Research and Enterprise Systems - ICORES N2 - Many markets are characterized by pricing competition. Typically, competitors are involved that adjust their prices in response to other competitors with different frequencies. We analyze stochastic dynamic pricing models under competition for the sale of durable goods. Given a competitor’s pricing strategy, we show how to derive optimal response strategies that take the anticipated competitor’s price adjustments into account. We study resulting price cycles and the associated expected long-term profits. We show that reaction frequencies have a major impact on a strategy’s performance. In order not to act predictable our model also allows to include randomized reaction times. Additionally, we study to which extent optimal response strategies of active competitors are affected by additional passive competitors that use constant prices. It turns out that optimized feedback strategies effectively avoid a decline in price. They help to gain profits, especially, when aggressive competitor s are involved.

To better understand the complex phenomenon of coring and related dynamics, this paper presents a case study comparing iMessage as part of Apple’s iOS and WhatsApp. Specifically, it investigates activities regarding platform coring, as the integration of several functionalities provided by third-party applications in the platform core. The paper makes three contributions. First, a systematization of coring activities is developed. Coring modes are differentiated by the amount of coring and application maintenance. Second, the case study revealed that the phenomenon of platform coring is present on digital platforms for mobile devices. Third, the fundamentals of coring are discussed as a first step towards theoretical development. Even though coring constitutes a potential threat for third-party developers regarding their functional differentiation, an idea of what a beneficial partnership incorporating coring activities could look like is developed here.

There is a wide range of different solutions available. However, these solutions either rely on personal devices of students (so-called software clicker) or require the purchase of mostly commercial hardware solutions. Here, the presented Hands.UP approach tries to bridge these two complementary concepts. Based on a cost and effort estimation of selected ARS, the necessity of inter-university cooperation with regard to adequate further development and the use of ARS in teaching are motivated. N2 - Audience Response Systeme (ARS) stellen eine Ergänzung der Hochschullehre dar, um die Teilnehmeraktivierung zu stärken und die Studierenden unmittelbar in das Vorlesungsgeschehen einzubinden. Es existiert eine Fülle an Lösungen, die entweder ohne dedizierte Hardware auskommen (sogenannte Software-Clicker) oder die Anschaffung meist kommerzieller Hardware- Lösungen voraussetzen. An dieser Stelle versucht Hands. UP eine integrative Brücke zu schlagen. Auf Grundlage einer Kosten- und Aufwandsschätzung ausgewählter ARS-Lösungen soll die Notwendigkeit hochschulübergreifender Kooperationen hinsichtlich einer adäquate Weiterentwicklung und des Einsatzes von ARS in der Lehre motiviert werden.

September 2015 N2 - This volume of contributions based on lectures delivered at a school on Fourier Integral Operators held in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso, 14–26 September 2015, provides an introduction to Fourier Integral Operators (FIO) for a readership of Master and PhD students as well as any interested layperson. Considering the wide spectrum of their applications and the richness of the mathematical tools they involve, FIOs lie the cross-road of many a field. This volume offers the necessary background, whether analytic or geometric, to get acquainted with FIOs, complemented by more advanced material presenting various aspects of active research in that area. N2 - Dieser Band basiert auf Vorlesungen, die in einer Schule über Fourier Integraloperatoren in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso, 14. - 26. September 2015 gehalten wurden. Es bietet eine Einführung in die Fourier Integraloperatoren (FIO) und richtet sich sowohl an Masterstudierende und Promovenden als auch an interessierte Laien. Aufgrund der Breite des Spektrums ihrer Anwendungen und der Vielfalt der mathematischen Werkzeuge, die sie ins Spiel bringen, liegen FIO an der Grenze zwischen mehreren Gebieten. Dieses Band bietet sowohl die analytisch und geometrisch nötigen Kenntnisse, um sich mit dem Begriff der FIO vertraut zu machen als auch fortgeschrittenes Material für einen Einblick in verschiedene Aspekte der gegenwärtigen Forschung dieses Gebietes an.

Potsdamer UNO-Konferenz am 25. Juni 2016 T2 - Potsdamer UNO-Konferenzen N2 - Der Forschungskreis Vereinte Nationen veranstaltete am 25. Juni 2016 seine dreizehnte Konferenz in Kooperation mit dem „Forum internationale Ordnung“ des Auswärtigen Amtes. Die Potsdamer UNO-Konferenzen stellen in ihrem Programm traditionell eine Verbindung von Wissenschaft und Praxis her unter Beteiligung unterschiedlicher Disziplinen. Die Konferenz 2016 widmete sich dem Thema „Die Rolle der Vereinten Nationen in der multilateralen Entwicklungszusammenarbeit“. Entwicklung als wichtiges Ziel der Vereinten Nationen und ihrer Mitgliedstaaten ist auch für andere Handlungs- und Politikfelder wichtig. Bilanz und Ausblick, die auf der Konferenz unternommen wurden, betrafen deshalb nicht nur die Entwicklungspolitik im eigentlichen Sinne – hier standen die 2015 beschlossenen Nachhaltigkeitsziele (SDGs) zur Debatte –, sondern bezogen auch umweltpolitische und menschenrechtliche Aspekte mit ein. Die Referate zum Thema Entwicklung wurden eingerahmt von zwei Vorträgen zu aktuellen UN-politischen Fragen: der Wahl des neuen Generalsekretärs der Vereinten Nationen in New York nach einem reformierten Wahlverfahren, das mehr Transparenz und für UN-Mitgliedstaaten und NGOs mehr Beteiligungsmöglichkeiten bietet, und die Neuorganisation innerhalb des Auswärtigen Amtes, was die Vereinten Nationen betrifft.
