To shed light on the consequences of videoconferencing at work, this study takes a granular look at the implications of the self-view feature for meeting outcomes. Building on self-awareness research and self-regulation theory, we argue that by heightening the state of self-awareness, self-view engagement depletes participants' mental resources and thereby can undermine online meeting outcomes. Evaluation of our theoretical model on a sample of 179 employees reveals a nuanced picture. Self-view engagement while speaking and while listening is positively associated with self-awareness, which, in turn, is negatively associated with satisfaction with meeting process, perceived productivity, and meeting enjoyment. The criticality of the communication role is put forward: looking at self while listening to other attendees has a negative direct and indirect effect on meeting outcomes; however, looking at self while speaking produces equivocal effects.}, language = {en} } @article{AbramovaGladkaya2024, author = {Abramova, Olga and Gladkaya, Margarita}, title = {Behind videoconferencing fatigue at work}, series = {Business \& information systems engineering}, journal = {Business \& information systems engineering}, publisher = {Springer Fachmedien}, address = {Wiesbaden}, issn = {2363-7005}, doi = {10.1007/s12599-024-00874-7}, pages = {19}, year = {2024}, abstract = {A remarkable peculiarity of videoconferencing (VC) applications - the self-view - a.k.a. digital mirror, is examined as a potential reason behind the voiced exhaustion among users. This work draws on technostress research and objective self-awareness theory and proposes the communication role (sender vs. receiver) as an interaction variable. We report the results of two studies among European employees (n1 = 176, n2 = 253) with a one-year time lag. A higher frequency of self-view in a VC when receiving a message, i.e., listening to others, indirectly increases negative affect (study 1 \& 2) and exhaustion (study 2) via the increased state of public self-awareness. Self-viewing in the role of message sender, e.g., as an online presenter, also increases public self-awareness, but its overall effects are less harmful. As for individual differences, users predisposed to public self-consciousness were more concerned with how other VC participants perceived them. Gender effects were insignificant.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{Abramova2020, author = {Abramova, Olga}, title = {Does a smile open all doors?}, series = {Proceedings of the 53rd Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the 53rd Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences}, publisher = {HICSS Conference Office University of Hawaii at Manoa}, address = {Honolulu}, isbn = {978-0-9981331-3-3}, pages = {831 -- 840}, year = {2020}, abstract = {Online photographs govern an individual's choices across a variety of contexts. In sharing arrangements, facial appearance has been shown to affect the desire to collaborate, interest to explore a listing, and even willingness to pay for a stay. Because of the ubiquity of online images and their influence on social attitudes, it seems crucial to be able to control these aspects. The present study examines the effect of different photographic self-disclosures on the provider's perceptions and willingness to accept a potential co-sharer. The findings from our experiment in the accommodation-sharing context suggest social attraction mediates the effect of photographic self-disclosures on willingness to host.

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} } @phdthesis{Abedjan2014, author = {Abedjan, Ziawasch}, title = {Improving RDF data with data mining}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus-71334}, school = {Universit{\"a}t Potsdam}, year = {2014}, abstract = {Linked Open Data (LOD) comprises very many and often large public data sets and knowledge bases. Those datasets are mostly presented in the RDF triple structure of subject, predicate, and object, where each triple represents a statement or fact. Unfortunately, the heterogeneity of available open data requires significant integration steps before it can be used in applications. Meta information, such as ontological definitions and exact range definitions of predicates, are desirable and ideally provided by an ontology. However in the context of LOD, ontologies are often incomplete or simply not available. Thus, it is useful to automatically generate meta information, such as ontological dependencies, range definitions, and topical classifications. Association rule mining, which was originally applied for sales analysis on transactional databases, is a promising and novel technique to explore such data. We designed an adaptation of this technique for min-ing Rdf data and introduce the concept of "mining configurations", which allows us to mine RDF data sets in various ways. Different configurations enable us to identify schema and value dependencies that in combination result in interesting use cases. To this end, we present rule-based approaches for auto-completion, data enrichment, ontology improvement, and query relaxation. Auto-completion remedies the problem of inconsistent ontology usage, providing an editing user with a sorted list of commonly used predicates. A combination of different configurations step extends this approach to create completely new facts for a knowledge base. We present two approaches for fact generation, a user-based approach where a user selects the entity to be amended with new facts and a data-driven approach where an algorithm discovers entities that have to be amended with missing facts. As knowledge bases constantly grow and evolve, another approach to improve the usage of RDF data is to improve existing ontologies. Here, we present an association rule based approach to reconcile ontology and data. Interlacing different mining configurations, we infer an algorithm to discover synonymously used predicates. Those predicates can be used to expand query results and to support users during query formulation. We provide a wide range of experiments on real world datasets for each use case. The experiments and evaluations show the added value of association rule mining for the integration and usability of RDF data and confirm the appropriateness of our mining configuration methodology.}, language = {en} } @book{OPUS4-7534, title = {Process design for natural scientists}, series = {Communications in computer and information science ; 500}, journal = {Communications in computer and information science ; 500}, editor = {Lambrecht, Anna-Lena and Margaria, Tizian}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {Wiesbaden}, isbn = {978-3-662-45005-5}, pages = {X, 251}, year = {2014}, abstract = {This book presents an agile and model-driven approach to manage scientific workflows.

In particular, these techniques hold great promise for the development of "systems infrastructure" software, e.g., application servers, middleware, virtual machines, compilers, operating systems, and other software that provides general services for higher-level applications. The developers of infrastructure software are faced with increasing demands from application programmers needing higher-level support for application development. Meeting these demands requires careful use of software modularization techniques, since infrastructural concerns are notoriously hard to modularize. Aspects, components, and patterns provide very different means to deal with infrastructure software, but despite their differences, they have much in common. For instance, component models try to free the developer from the need to deal directly with services like security or transactions. These are primary examples of crosscutting concerns, and modularizing such concerns are the main target of aspect-oriented languages. Similarly, design patterns like Visitor and Interceptor facilitate the clean modularization of otherwise tangled concerns. Building on the ACP4IS meetings at AOSD 2002-2009, this workshop aims to provide a highly interactive forum for researchers and developers to discuss the application of and relationships between aspects, components, and patterns within modern infrastructure software. The goal is to put aspects, components, and patterns into a common reference frame and to build connections between the software engineering and systems communities.}, language = {en} } @book{OPUS4-4677, title = {Selected Papers of the International Workshop on Smalltalk Technologies (IWST'10) : Barcelona, Spain, September 14, 2010}, editor = {Haupt, Michael and Hirschfeld, Robert}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}tsverlag Potsdam}, address = {Potsdam}, isbn = {978-3-86956-106-6}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus-48553}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}t Potsdam}, pages = {34}, year = {2010}, abstract = {The goal of the IWST workshop series is to create and foster a forum around advancements of or experience in Smalltalk.
