This document presents a formula selection system for classical first order theorem proving based on the relevance of formulae for the proof of a conjecture. It is based on unifiability of predicates and is also able to use a linguistic approach for the selection. The scope of the technique is the reduction of the set of formulae and the increase of the amount of provable conjectures in a given time. Since the technique generates a subset of the formula set, it can be used as a preprocessor for automated theorem proving. The document contains the conception, implementation and evaluation of both selection concepts. While the one concept generates a search graph over the negation normal forms or Skolem normal forms of the given formulae, the linguistic concept analyses the formulae and determines frequencies of lexemes and uses a tf-idf weighting algorithm to determine the relevance of the formulae. Though the concept is built for first order logic, it is not limited to it. The concept can be used for higher order and modal logik, too, with minimal adoptions. The system was also evaluated at the world championship of automated theorem provers (CADE ATP Systems Competition, CASC-24) in combination with the leanCoP theorem prover and the evaluation of the results of the CASC and the benchmarks with the problems of the CASC of the year 2012 (CASC-J6) show that the concept of the system has positive impact to the performance of automated theorem provers. Also, the benchmarks with two different theorem provers which use different calculi have shown that the selection is independent from the calculus. Moreover, the concept of TEMPLAR has shown to be competitive to some extent with the concept of SinE and even helped one of the theorem provers to solve problems that were not (or slower) solved with SinE selection in the CASC. Finally, the evaluation implies that the combination of the unification based and linguistic selection yields more improved results though no optimisation was done for the problems.
This document presents an axiom selection technique for classic first order theorem proving based on the relevance of axioms for the proof of a conjecture. It is based on unifiability of predicates and does not need statistical information like symbol frequency. The scope of the technique is the reduction of the set of axioms and the increase of the amount of provable conjectures in a given time. Since the technique generates a subset of the axiom set, it can be used as a preprocessor for automated theorem proving. This technical report describes the conception, implementation and evaluation of ARDE. The selection method, which is based on a breadth-first graph search by unifiability of predicates, is a weakened form of the connection calculus and uses specialised variants or unifiability to speed up the selection. The implementation of the concept is evaluated with comparison to the results of the world championship of theorem provers of the year 2012 (CASC J6). It is shown that both the theorem prover leanCoP which uses the connection calculus and E which uses equality reasoning, can benefit from the selection approach. Also, the evaluation shows that the concept is applyable for theorem proving problems with thousands of formulae and that the selection is independent from the calculus used by the theorem prover.
Deciphering the functioning of biological networks is one of the central tasks in systems biology. In particular, signal transduction networks are crucial for the understanding of the cellular response to external and internal perturbations. Importantly, in order to cope with the complexity of these networks, mathematical and computational modeling is required. We propose a computational modeling framework in order to achieve more robust discoveries in the context of logical signaling networks. More precisely, we focus on modeling the response of logical signaling networks by means of automated reasoning using Answer Set Programming (ASP). ASP provides a declarative language for modeling various knowledge representation and reasoning problems. Moreover, available ASP solvers provide several reasoning modes for assessing the multitude of answer sets. Therefore, leveraging its rich modeling language and its highly efficient solving capacities, we use ASP to address three challenging problems in the context of logical signaling networks: learning of (Boolean) logical networks, experimental design, and identification of intervention strategies. Overall, the contribution of this thesis is three-fold. Firstly, we introduce a mathematical framework for characterizing and reasoning on the response of logical signaling networks. Secondly, we contribute to a growing list of successful applications of ASP in systems biology. Thirdly, we present a software providing a complete pipeline for automated reasoning on the response of logical signaling networks.
The objective and motivation behind this research is to provide applications with easy-to-use interfaces to communities of deaf and functionally illiterate users, which enables them to work without any human assistance. Although recent years have witnessed technological advancements, the availability of technology does not ensure accessibility to information and communication technologies (ICT). Extensive use of text from menus to document contents means that deaf or functionally illiterate can not access services implemented on most computer software. Consequently, most existing computer applications pose an accessibility barrier to those who are unable to read fluently. Online technologies intended for such groups should be developed in continuous partnership with primary users and include a thorough investigation into their limitations, requirements and usability barriers. In this research, I investigated existing tools in voice, web and other multimedia technologies to identify learning gaps and explored ways to enhance the information literacy for deaf and functionally illiterate users. I worked on the development of user-centered interfaces to increase the capabilities of deaf and low literacy users by enhancing lexical resources and by evaluating several multimedia interfaces for them. The interface of the platform-independent Italian Sign Language (LIS) Dictionary has been developed to enhance the lexical resources for deaf users. The Sign Language Dictionary accepts Italian lemmas as input and provides their representation in the Italian Sign Language as output. The Sign Language dictionary has 3082 signs as set of Avatar animations in which each sign is linked to a corresponding Italian lemma. I integrated the LIS lexical resources with MultiWordNet (MWN) database to form the first LIS MultiWordNet(LMWN). LMWN contains information about lexical relations between words, semantic relations between lexical concepts (synsets), correspondences between Italian and sign language lexical concepts and semantic fields (domains). The approach enhances the deaf users’ understanding of written Italian language and shows that a relatively small set of lexicon can cover a significant portion of MWN. Integration of LIS signs with MWN made it useful tool for computational linguistics and natural language processing. The rule-based translation process from written Italian text to LIS has been transformed into service-oriented system. The translation process is composed of various modules including parser, semantic interpreter, generator, and spatial allocation planner. This translation procedure has been implemented in the Java Application Building Center (jABC), which is a framework for extreme model driven design (XMDD). The XMDD approach focuses on bringing software development closer to conceptual design, so that the functionality of a software solution could be understood by someone who is unfamiliar with programming concepts. The transformation addresses the heterogeneity challenge and enhances the re-usability of the system. For enhancing the e-participation of functionally illiterate users, two detailed studies were conducted in the Republic of Rwanda. In the first study, the traditional (textual) interface was compared with the virtual character-based interactive interface. The study helped to identify usability barriers and users evaluated these interfaces according to three fundamental areas of usability, i.e. effectiveness, efficiency and satisfaction. In another study, we developed four different interfaces to analyze the usability and effects of online assistance (consistent help) for functionally illiterate users and compared different help modes including textual, vocal and virtual character on the performance of semi-literate users. In our newly designed interfaces the instructions were automatically translated in Swahili language. All the interfaces were evaluated on the basis of task accomplishment, time consumption, System Usability Scale (SUS) rating and number of times the help was acquired. The results show that the performance of semi-literate users improved significantly when using the online assistance. The dissertation thus introduces a new development approach in which virtual characters are used as additional support for barely literate or naturally challenged users. Such components enhanced the application utility by offering a variety of services like translating contents in local language, providing additional vocal information, and performing automatic translation from text to sign language. Obviously, there is no such thing as one design solution that fits for all in the underlying domain. Context sensitivity, literacy and mental abilities are key factors on which I concentrated and the results emphasize that computer interfaces must be based on a thoughtful definition of target groups, purposes and objectives.
Learning a model for the relationship between the attributes and the annotated labels of data examples serves two purposes. Firstly, it enables the prediction of the label for examples without annotation. Secondly, the parameters of the model can provide useful insights into the structure of the data. If the data has an inherent partitioned structure, it is natural to mirror this structure in the model. Such mixture models predict by combining the individual predictions generated by the mixture components which correspond to the partitions in the data. Often the partitioned structure is latent, and has to be inferred when learning the mixture model. Directly evaluating the accuracy of the inferred partition structure is, in many cases, impossible because the ground truth cannot be obtained for comparison. However it can be assessed indirectly by measuring the prediction accuracy of the mixture model that arises from it. This thesis addresses the interplay between the improvement of predictive accuracy by uncovering latent cluster structure in data, and further addresses the validation of the estimated structure by measuring the accuracy of the resulting predictive model. In the application of filtering unsolicited emails, the emails in the training set are latently clustered into advertisement campaigns. Uncovering this latent structure allows filtering of future emails with very low false positive rates. In order to model the cluster structure, a Bayesian clustering model for dependent binary features is developed in this thesis. Knowing the clustering of emails into campaigns can also aid in uncovering which emails have been sent on behalf of the same network of captured hosts, so-called botnets. This association of emails to networks is another layer of latent clustering. Uncovering this latent structure allows service providers to further increase the accuracy of email filtering and to effectively defend against distributed denial-of-service attacks. To this end, a discriminative clustering model is derived in this thesis that is based on the graph of observed emails. The partitionings inferred using this model are evaluated through their capacity to predict the campaigns of new emails. Furthermore, when classifying the content of emails, statistical information about the sending server can be valuable. Learning a model that is able to make use of it requires training data that includes server statistics. In order to also use training data where the server statistics are missing, a model that is a mixture over potentially all substitutions thereof is developed. Another application is to predict the navigation behavior of the users of a website. Here, there is no a priori partitioning of the users into clusters, but to understand different usage scenarios and design different layouts for them, imposing a partitioning is necessary. The presented approach simultaneously optimizes the discriminative as well as the predictive power of the clusters. Each model is evaluated on real-world data and compared to baseline methods. The results show that explicitly modeling the assumptions about the latent cluster structure leads to improved predictions compared to the baselines. It is beneficial to incorporate a small number of hyperparameters that can be tuned to yield the best predictions in cases where the prediction accuracy can not be optimized directly.
This thesis presents novel ideas and research findings for the Web of Data – a global data space spanning many so-called Linked Open Data sources. Linked Open Data adheres to a set of simple principles to allow easy access and reuse for data published on the Web. Linked Open Data is by now an established concept and many (mostly academic) publishers adopted the principles building a powerful web of structured knowledge available to everybody. However, so far, Linked Open Data does not yet play a significant role among common web technologies that currently facilitate a high-standard Web experience. In this work, we thoroughly discuss the state-of-the-art for Linked Open Data and highlight several shortcomings – some of them we tackle in the main part of this work. First, we propose a novel type of data source meta-information, namely the topics of a dataset. This information could be published with dataset descriptions and support a variety of use cases, such as data source exploration and selection. For the topic retrieval, we present an approach coined Annotated Pattern Percolation (APP), which we evaluate with respect to topics extracted from Wikipedia portals. Second, we contribute to entity linking research by presenting an optimization model for joint entity linking, showing its hardness, and proposing three heuristics implemented in the LINked Data Alignment (LINDA) system. Our first solution can exploit multi-core machines, whereas the second and third approach are designed to run in a distributed shared-nothing environment. We discuss and evaluate the properties of our approaches leading to recommendations which algorithm to use in a specific scenario. The distributed algorithms are among the first of their kind, i.e., approaches for joint entity linking in a distributed fashion. Also, we illustrate that we can tackle the entity linking problem on the very large scale with data comprising more than 100 millions of entity representations from very many sources. Finally, we approach a sub-problem of entity linking, namely the alignment of concepts. We again target a method that looks at the data in its entirety and does not neglect existing relations. Also, this concept alignment method shall execute very fast to serve as a preprocessing for further computations. Our approach, called Holistic Concept Matching (HCM), achieves the required speed through grouping the input by comparing so-called knowledge representations. Within the groups, we perform complex similarity computations, relation conclusions, and detect semantic contradictions. The quality of our result is again evaluated on a large and heterogeneous dataset from the real Web. In summary, this work contributes a set of techniques for enhancing the current state of the Web of Data. All approaches have been tested on large and heterogeneous real-world input.
Cloud computing is a model for enabling on-demand access to a shared pool of computing resources. With virtually limitless on-demand resources, a cloud environment enables the hosted Internet application to quickly cope when there is an increase in the workload. However, the overhead of provisioning resources exposes the Internet application to periods of under-provisioning and performance degradation. Moreover, the performance interference, due to the consolidation in the cloud environment, complicates the performance management of the Internet applications. In this dissertation, we propose two approaches to mitigate the impact of the resources provisioning overhead. The first approach employs control theory to scale resources vertically and cope fast with workload. This approach assumes that the provider has knowledge and control over the platform running in the virtual machines (VMs), which limits it to Platform as a Service (PaaS) and Software as a Service (SaaS) providers. The second approach is a customer-side one that deals with the horizontal scalability in an Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) model. It addresses the trade-off problem between cost and performance with a multi-goal optimization solution. This approach finds the scale thresholds that achieve the highest performance with the lowest increase in the cost. Moreover, the second approach employs a proposed time series forecasting algorithm to scale the application proactively and avoid under-utilization periods. Furthermore, to mitigate the interference impact on the Internet application performance, we developed a system which finds and eliminates the VMs suffering from performance interference. The developed system is a light-weight solution which does not imply provider involvement. To evaluate our approaches and the designed algorithms at large-scale level, we developed a simulator called (ScaleSim). In the simulator, we implemented scalability components acting as the scalability components of Amazon EC2. The current scalability implementation in Amazon EC2 is used as a reference point for evaluating the improvement in the scalable application performance. ScaleSim is fed with realistic models of the RUBiS benchmark extracted from the real environment. The workload is generated from the access logs of the 1998 world cup website. The results show that optimizing the scalability thresholds and adopting proactive scalability can mitigate 88% of the resources provisioning overhead impact with only a 9% increase in the cost.
This thesis proposes a privacy protection framework for the controlled distribution and use of personal private data. The framework is based on the idea that privacy policies can be set directly by the data owner and can be automatically enforced against the data user. Data privacy continues to be a very important topic, as our dependency on electronic communication maintains its current growth, and private data is shared between multiple devices, users and locations. The growing amount and the ubiquitous availability of personal private data increases the likelihood of data misuse. Early privacy protection techniques, such as anonymous email and payment systems have focused on data avoidance and anonymous use of services. They did not take into account that data sharing cannot be avoided when people participate in electronic communication scenarios that involve social interactions. This leads to a situation where data is shared widely and uncontrollably and in most cases the data owner has no control over further distribution and use of personal private data. Previous efforts to integrate privacy awareness into data processing workflows have focused on the extension of existing access control frameworks with privacy aware functions or have analysed specific individual problems such as the expressiveness of policy languages. So far, very few implementations of integrated privacy protection mechanisms exist and can be studied to prove their effectiveness for privacy protection. Second level issues that stem from practical application of the implemented mechanisms, such as usability, life-time data management and changes in trustworthiness have received very little attention so far, mainly because they require actual implementations to be studied. Most existing privacy protection schemes silently assume that it is the privilege of the data user to define the contract under which personal private data is released. Such an approach simplifies policy management and policy enforcement for the data user, but leaves the data owner with a binary decision to submit or withhold his or her personal data based on the provided policy. We wanted to empower the data owner to express his or her privacy preferences through privacy policies that follow the so-called Owner-Retained Access Control (ORAC) model. ORAC has been proposed by McCollum, et al. as an alternate access control mechanism that leaves the authority over access decisions by the originator of the data. The data owner is given control over the release policy for his or her personal data, and he or she can set permissions or restrictions according to individually perceived trust values. Such a policy needs to be expressed in a coherent way and must allow the deterministic policy evaluation by different entities. The privacy policy also needs to be communicated from the data owner to the data user, so that it can be enforced. Data and policy are stored together as a Protected Data Object that follows the Sticky Policy paradigm as defined by Mont, et al. and others. We developed a unique policy combination approach that takes usability aspects for the creation and maintenance of policies into consideration. Our privacy policy consists of three parts: A Default Policy provides basic privacy protection if no specific rules have been entered by the data owner. An Owner Policy part allows the customisation of the default policy by the data owner. And a so-called Safety Policy guarantees that the data owner cannot specify disadvantageous policies, which, for example, exclude him or her from further access to the private data. The combined evaluation of these three policy-parts yields the necessary access decision. The automatic enforcement of privacy policies in our protection framework is supported by a reference monitor implementation. We started our work with the development of a client-side protection mechanism that allows the enforcement of data-use restrictions after private data has been released to the data user. The client-side enforcement component for data-use policies is based on a modified Java Security Framework. Privacy policies are translated into corresponding Java permissions that can be automatically enforced by the Java Security Manager. When we later extended our work to implement server-side protection mechanisms, we found several drawbacks for the privacy enforcement through the Java Security Framework. We solved this problem by extending our reference monitor design to use Aspect-Oriented Programming (AOP) and the Java Reflection API to intercept data accesses in existing applications and provide a way to enforce data owner-defined privacy policies for business applications.
3D from 2D touch
(2013)
While interaction with computers used to be dominated by mice and keyboards, new types of sensors now allow users to interact through touch, speech, or using their whole body in 3D space. These new interaction modalities are often referred to as "natural user interfaces" or "NUIs." While 2D NUIs have experienced major success on billions of mobile touch devices sold, 3D NUI systems have so far been unable to deliver a mobile form factor, mainly due to their use of cameras. The fact that cameras require a certain distance from the capture volume has prevented 3D NUI systems from reaching the flat form factor mobile users expect. In this dissertation, we address this issue by sensing 3D input using flat 2D sensors. The systems we present observe the input from 3D objects as 2D imprints upon physical contact. By sampling these imprints at very high resolutions, we obtain the objects' textures. In some cases, a texture uniquely identifies a biometric feature, such as the user's fingerprint. In other cases, an imprint stems from the user's clothing, such as when walking on multitouch floors. By analyzing from which part of the 3D object the 2D imprint results, we reconstruct the object's pose in 3D space. While our main contribution is a general approach to sensing 3D input on 2D sensors upon physical contact, we also demonstrate three applications of our approach. (1) We present high-accuracy touch devices that allow users to reliably touch targets that are a third of the size of those on current touch devices. We show that different users and 3D finger poses systematically affect touch sensing, which current devices perceive as random input noise. We introduce a model for touch that compensates for this systematic effect by deriving the 3D finger pose and the user's identity from each touch imprint. We then investigate this systematic effect in detail and explore how users conceptually touch targets. Our findings indicate that users aim by aligning visual features of their fingers with the target. We present a visual model for touch input that eliminates virtually all systematic effects on touch accuracy. (2) From each touch, we identify users biometrically by analyzing their fingerprints. Our prototype Fiberio integrates fingerprint scanning and a display into the same flat surface, solving a long-standing problem in human-computer interaction: secure authentication on touchscreens. Sensing 3D input and authenticating users upon touch allows Fiberio to implement a variety of applications that traditionally require the bulky setups of current 3D NUI systems. (3) To demonstrate the versatility of 3D reconstruction on larger touch surfaces, we present a high-resolution pressure-sensitive floor that resolves the texture of objects upon touch. Using the same principles as before, our system GravitySpace analyzes all imprints and identifies users based on their shoe soles, detects furniture, and enables accurate touch input using feet. By classifying all imprints, GravitySpace detects the users' body parts that are in contact with the floor and then reconstructs their 3D body poses using inverse kinematics. GravitySpace thus enables a range of applications for future 3D NUI systems based on a flat sensor, such as smart rooms in future homes. We conclude this dissertation by projecting into the future of mobile devices. Focusing on the mobility aspect of our work, we explore how NUI devices may one day augment users directly in the form of implanted devices.
Interactive rendering techniques for focus+context visualization of 3D geovirtual environments
(2013)
This thesis introduces a collection of new real-time rendering techniques and applications for focus+context visualization of interactive 3D geovirtual environments such as virtual 3D city and landscape models. These environments are generally characterized by a large number of objects and are of high complexity with respect to geometry and textures. For these reasons, their interactive 3D rendering represents a major challenge. Their 3D depiction implies a number of weaknesses such as occlusions, cluttered image contents, and partial screen-space usage. To overcome these limitations and, thus, to facilitate the effective communication of geo-information, principles of focus+context visualization can be used for the design of real-time 3D rendering techniques for 3D geovirtual environments (see Figure). In general, detailed views of a 3D geovirtual environment are combined seamlessly with abstracted views of the context within a single image. To perform the real-time image synthesis required for interactive visualization, dedicated parallel processors (GPUs) for rasterization of computer graphics primitives are used. For this purpose, the design and implementation of appropriate data structures and rendering pipelines are necessary. The contribution of this work comprises the following five real-time rendering methods: • The rendering technique for 3D generalization lenses enables the combination of different 3D city geometries (e.g., generalized versions of a 3D city model) in a single image in real time. The method is based on a generalized and fragment-precise clipping approach, which uses a compressible, raster-based data structure. It enables the combination of detailed views in the focus area with the representation of abstracted variants in the context area. • The rendering technique for the interactive visualization of dynamic raster data in 3D geovirtual environments facilitates the rendering of 2D surface lenses. It enables a flexible combination of different raster layers (e.g., aerial images or videos) using projective texturing for decoupling image and geometry data. Thus, various overlapping and nested 2D surface lenses of different contents can be visualized interactively. • The interactive rendering technique for image-based deformation of 3D geovirtual environments enables the real-time image synthesis of non-planar projections, such as cylindrical and spherical projections, as well as multi-focal 3D fisheye-lenses and the combination of planar and non-planar projections. • The rendering technique for view-dependent multi-perspective views of 3D geovirtual environments, based on the application of global deformations to the 3D scene geometry, can be used for synthesizing interactive panorama maps to combine detailed views close to the camera (focus) with abstract views in the background (context). This approach reduces occlusions, increases the usage the available screen space, and reduces the overload of image contents. • The object-based and image-based rendering techniques for highlighting objects and focus areas inside and outside the view frustum facilitate preattentive perception. The concepts and implementations of interactive image synthesis for focus+context visualization and their selected applications enable a more effective communication of spatial information, and provide building blocks for design and development of new applications and systems in the field of 3D geovirtual environments.
The field of machine learning studies algorithms that infer predictive models from data. Predictive models are applicable for many practical tasks such as spam filtering, face and handwritten digit recognition, and personalized product recommendation. In general, they are used to predict a target label for a given data instance. In order to make an informed decision about the deployment of a predictive model, it is crucial to know the model’s approximate performance. To evaluate performance, a set of labeled test instances is required that is drawn from the distribution the model will be exposed to at application time. In many practical scenarios, unlabeled test instances are readily available, but the process of labeling them can be a time- and cost-intensive task and may involve a human expert. This thesis addresses the problem of evaluating a given predictive model accurately with minimal labeling effort. We study an active model evaluation process that selects certain instances of the data according to an instrumental sampling distribution and queries their labels. We derive sampling distributions that minimize estimation error with respect to different performance measures such as error rate, mean squared error, and F-measures. An analysis of the distribution that governs the estimator leads to confidence intervals, which indicate how precise the error estimation is. Labeling costs may vary across different instances depending on certain characteristics of the data. For instance, documents differ in their length, comprehensibility, and technical requirements; these attributes affect the time a human labeler needs to judge relevance or to assign topics. To address this, the sampling distribution is extended to incorporate instance-specific costs. We empirically study conditions under which the active evaluation processes are more accurate than a standard estimate that draws equally many instances from the test distribution. We also address the problem of comparing the risks of two predictive models. The standard approach would be to draw instances according to the test distribution, label the selected instances, and apply statistical tests to identify significant differences. Drawing instances according to an instrumental distribution affects the power of a statistical test. We derive a sampling procedure that maximizes test power when used to select instances, and thereby minimizes the likelihood of choosing the inferior model. Furthermore, we investigate the task of comparing several alternative models; the objective of an evaluation could be to rank the models according to the risk that they incur or to identify the model with lowest risk. An experimental study shows that the active procedure leads to higher test power than the standard test in many application domains. Finally, we study the problem of evaluating the performance of ranking functions, which are used for example for web search. In practice, ranking performance is estimated by applying a given ranking model to a representative set of test queries and manually assessing the relevance of all retrieved items for each query. We apply the concepts of active evaluation and active comparison to ranking functions and derive optimal sampling distributions for the commonly used performance measures Discounted Cumulative Gain and Expected Reciprocal Rank. Experiments on web search engine data illustrate significant reductions in labeling costs.
This talk will describe My Digital Life (TU100), a distance learning module that introduces computer science through immediate engagement with ubiquitous computing (ubicomp). This talk will describe some of the principles and concepts we have adopted for this modern computing introduction: the idea of the ‘informed digital citizen’; engagement through narrative; playful pedagogy; making the power of ubicomp available to novices; setting technical skills in real contexts. It will also trace how the pedagogy is informed by experiences and research in Computer Science education.
A survey has been carried out in the Computer Science (CS) department at the University of Baghdad to investigate the attitudes of CS students in a female dominant environment, showing the differences between male and female students in different academic years. We also compare the attitudes of the freshman students of two different cultures (University of Baghdad, Iraq, and the University of Potsdam).
Durch den bundesweiten Rückgang der Schülerzahlen und einer steigenden Zahl von Bildungsangeboten geraten Universitäten und Hochschulen in den nächsten Jahren weiter in eine Wettbewerbssituation, weshalb sie effektive Marketingmaßnahmen entwickeln müssen, um Schülerinnen und Schüler möglichst frühzeitig für das jeweilige Angebot (z. B. Informatik- und informatiknahe Studiengänge) zu interessieren. Ein Medium, über das sich potenziell sehr viele Jugendliche erreichen lassen, sind dabei soziale Netzwerke. Diese Arbeit präsentiert Ergebnisse einer Studie unter Informatikstudienanfängerinnen und -anfängern zum Nutzungsverhalten sozialer Netzwerke und zieht Schlussfolgerungen zu deren Eignung als Werbe- und Informationskanal für die Zielgruppe der Informatikinteressierten.
Viele Hochschulen nutzen SAP ERP in der Lehre, um den Studierenden einen Einblick in die Funktionsweise und den Aufbau von integrierter Standardsoftware zu ermöglichen. Im Rahmen solcher Schulungen bilden die Studierenden eine Meinung und Bewertung der Software. In diesem Artikel wird untersucht, wie sich klassische Modelle der Nutzungswahrnehmung auf die spezielle Situation von SAP ERP in der Lehre übertragen lassen und welchen Einfluss bestimmte Faktoren haben. Dazu wurden vier Vorher-Nachher-Studien durchgeführt. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass die Funktionalität im Laufe der Schulung positiver und die Benutzungsfreundlichkeit als negativer bewertet wird.
In einigen Bereichen der Informatiklehre ist es möglich, die persönlichen Erfahrungen der Studierenden im Umgang mit Informationstechnik aufzugreifen und vor dem Hintergrund theoretischer Konzepte aus der Literatur gemeinsam mit ihnen zu reflektieren. Das hier vorgestellte Lehrkonzept des Reflexionsdialogs erstreckt sich über drei Seminartermine und vorbereitende Selbstlernphasen. Unterstützt wird das Konzept durch DialogueMaps, eine Software zur Visualisierung komplexer Sachverhalte und zur Unterstützung interaktiver Dialoge. Dieser Beitrag beschreibt die Hintergründe des Lehrkonzeptes, das Lehrkonzept selbst sowie die inhaltliche Ausgestaltung im Rahmen eines Mastermoduls „Computergestützte Kooperation“.
In diesem Beitrag berichten wir über die Erfahrungen einer umgestalteten Lehre im Bereich Informatik und Gesellschft (IuG). Die Gründe für die Umge staltung und die Konzeption werden skizziert. Die Erfahrungen haben wir zu Thesen verdichtet: 1. Informatik und Gesellschaft sollte eine Pflichtveranstaltung im Bachelor-Studium sein, in der Studierende einen Überblick erhalten, welche gesellschaftlichen Rahmenbedingungen für sie relevant sind und wie man diese in die Praxis mit einbeziehen kann. 2. Historische Inhalte der Informatik sollen hier aufgearbeitet werden, indem man aktuelle Entwicklungen im Kontext ihrer Genese betrachtet.
Wir stellen die Konzeption und erste Ergebnisse einer neuartigen Informatik- Lehrveranstaltung für Studierende der Geodäsie vor. Das Konzept verbindet drei didaktische Ideen: Kontextorientierung, Peer-Tutoring und Praxisbezug (Course). Die Studierenden sollen dabei in zwei Semestern wichtige Grundlagen der Informatik verstehen und anzuwenden lernen. Durch enge Verzahnung der Aufgaben mit einem für Nichtinformatiker relevanten Kontext, sowie einem sehr hohen Anteil von Selbsttätigkeit der Studierenden soll die Motivation für fachfremde Themen gesteigert werden. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass die Veranstaltung sehr erfolgreich war.
Informatik im Alltag
(2013)
Die Fachwissenschaft Informatik stellt Mittel bereit, deren Nutzung für Studierende heutzutage selbstverständlich ist. Diese Tatsache darf uns allerdings nicht dar- über hinwegtäuschen, dass Studierende in der Regel keine Grundlage im Sinne einer informatischen Allgemeinbildung gemäÿ der Bildungsstandards der Gesellschaft für Informatik besitzen. Das Schulfach Informatik hat immer noch keinen durchgängigen Platz in den Stundentafeln der allgemein bildenden Schule gefunden. Zukünftigen Lehrkräften ist im Rahmen der bildungswissenschaftlichen Anteile im Studium eine hinreichende Medienkompetenz zu vermitteln. Mit der überragenden Bedeutung der digitalen Medien kann dies nur auf der Grundlage einer ausreichenden informatischen Grundbildung erfolgen. Damit ist es angezeigt, ein Studienangebot bereitzustellen, das allen Studierenden ein Eintauchen in Elemente (Fachgebiete) der Fachwissenschaft Informatik aus der Sicht des Alltags bietet. An diesen Elementen werden exemplarisch verschiedene Aspekte der Fachwissenschaft beleuchtet, um einen Einblick in die Vielgestaltigkeit der Fragen und Lösungsstrategien der Informatik zu erlauben und so die informatische Grundbildung zu befördern.
Zurzeit haben wir es mit der folgenden Situation an Universitäten zu tun: Studierende kommen mit unterschiedlichem Wissen und Kompetenzen zur Universität, um informatikbezogene Studiengänge zu belegen. Diesem Umstand muss in den universitären Kursen entgegengewirkt werden, um ein einheitliches Bildungsziel zu erreichen. Für einige Studierende bedeutet dies oft eine Lehrbelastung in einem ohnehin sehr zeitintensiven Studium, was nicht selten zum Studienabbruch führt. Ein anderes Problem ist die fehlende Transparenz bezüglich der Gegenstände des Informatikstudiums: einige angehende Studierende kommen mit einem von der Realität abweichenden Bild der Informatik zur Universität, andere entscheiden sich u. U. deshalb gegen ein Informatikstudium, da ihnen nicht bewusst ist, dass das Studium für sie interessant sein könnte. In diesem Artikel soll ein Lösungsvorschlag anhand eines Kompetenzrahmenmodells vorgestellt werden, mit dessen Hilfe eine Verbesserung der Hochschulsituation erreicht werden kann.
Der vorliegende Beitrag beschäftigt sich mit der Frage, wie der eLearning-Support in großen Institutionen effizient gestaltet werden kann. Vorgestellt wird ein experimentelles Beratungsprojekt, das Lehrende bei der Gestaltung von eLearning-Maßnahmen mithilfe der Lernplattform ILIAS1 unterstützt. Neben der Zielsetzung des Projekts werden dessen Aufbau und erste Praxiserfahrungen erörtert. Außerdem werden Potenziale des Beratungsformats, die insbesondere mit der individuellen Vor-Ort-Beratung der Lehrenden durch hochschuldidaktisch geschulte Studierende einhergehen, erläutert. Abschließend werden Grenzen und Weiterentwicklungsperspektiven des Projekts dargestellt. Am Beispiel der ILIAS-Beratung soll gezeigt werden, dass es sich einer nachhaltigen Organisationsentwicklung als zuträglich erweist, Kooperationen erschiedenartiger Organisationseinheiten zu fördern und die entstehenden Synergieeffekte zu nutzen.
Der traditionelle Weg in der Informatik besteht darin, Kompetenzen entweder normativ durch eine Expertengruppe festzulegen oder als Ableitungsergebnis eines Bildungsstandards aus einem externen Feld. Dieser Artikel stellt einen neuartigen und alternativen Ansatz vor, der sich der Methodik der Qualitativen Inhaltsanalyse (QI) bedient. Das Ziel war die Ableitung von informatischen Schlüsselkompetenzen anhand bereits etablierter und erprobter didaktischer Ansätze der Informatikdidaktik. Dazu wurde zunächst aus einer Reihe von Informatikdidaktikbüchern eine Liste mit möglichen Kandidaten für Kompetenzen generiert. Diese Liste wurde als QI-Kategoriensystem verwendet, mit der sechs verschiedene didaktische Ansätze analysiert wurden. Ein abschließender Verfeinerungsschritt erfolgte durch die Überprüfung, welche der gefundenen Kompetenzen in allen vier Kernbereichen der Informatik (theoretische, technische, praktische und angewandte Informatik) Anwendung finden. Diese Methode wurde für die informatische Schulausbildung exemplarisch entwickelt und umgesetzt, ist aber ebenfalls ein geeignetes Vorgehen für die Identifizierung von Schlüsselkompetenzen in anderen Gebieten, wie z. B. in der informatischen Hochschulausbildung, und soll deshalb hier kurz vorgestellt werden.
Dieser Beitrag stellt das Lehr-Lern-Konzept zur Kompetenzförderung im Software Engineering im Studiengang Mechatronik der Hochschule Aschaffenburg dar. Dieses Konzept ist mehrstufig mit Vorlesungs-, Seminar- und Projektsequenzen. Dabei werden Herausforderungen und Verbesserungspotentiale identifiziert und dargestellt. Abschließend wird ein Überblick gegeben, wie im Rahmen eines gerade gestarteten Forschungsprojektes Lehr-Lernkonzepte weiterentwickelt werden können.
Im Bachelor-Studiengang (B. Sc.) IT Security an der Fachhochschule St. Pölten wurde im Wintersemester 2011/12 versuchsweise die Lehrorganisation im ersten Fachsemester verändert: Die Module bzw. Teilmodule wurden nicht mehr alle parallel zueinander unterrichtet, sondern jedes Modul wurde exklusiv über einige Wochen abgehalten. Im Beitrag werden die Auswirkungen und bisherigen Erfahrungen mit dieser Reorganisation der Lehre geschildert: So haben sich die Noten im Mittel um etwa eine Note verbessert, die Zahl derjenigen Studierenden, die durch Prüfungen durchfallen, ist drastisch gesunken. Die Zufriedenheit der Studierenden und Lehrenden ist so groß, dass diese Form der Lehrorganisation im gesamten Bachelor- und auch im Masterstudiengang übernommen wird.
Zur Unterstützung von Studierenden in der Studieneingangsphase wurde an der RWTH Aachen ein neuartiger und motivierender Einstieg in den Vorkurs Informatik entwickelt und zum Wintersemester 2011/12 erprobt. Dabei wurde die grafische Programmierung mittels App Inventor eingeführt, die zur Umsetzung anwendungsbezogener Projekte genutzt wurde. In diesem Beitrag werden die Motivation für die Neugestaltung, das Konzept und die Evaluation des Testlaufs beschrieben. Diese dienen als Grundlage für eine vollständige Neukonzeption des Vorkurses für das Wintersemester 2012/2013.
Die vorliegende Arbeit erörtert die Frage, wie Nachwuchs für das Informatikstudium nachhaltig gesichert werden kann. Dazu werden Befragungen unter Schülerinnen und Schülern (13-16 Jahre), sowie aktuelle Informatik-Schnupperangebote für Schülerinnen und Schüler an deutschsprachigen Hochschulen vorgestellt und untersucht. Diese Gegenüberstellung zeigt deutlich, dass die Angebote nur bedingt eine breite Zielgruppe ansprechen und dass weitere Formate und Inhalte notwendig sind, um Schülerinnen und Schüler frühzeitig und in voller Breite zu erreichen und für das Informatikstudium zu begeistern. Daraus wird abgeleitet, dass Missverständnisse und Probleme mit der Informatik im Schulkontext aufgegriffen werden müssen. Das vorgestellte Programm Schulbotschafter Informatik stellt einen möglichen Weg dar, um dies zu erreichen und übliche Schnupperangebote zu ergänzen.
Scientific writing is an important skill for computer science and computer engineering professionals. In this paper we present a writing concept across the curriculum program directed towards scientific writing. The program is built around a hierarchy of learning outcomes. The hierarchy is constructed through analyzing the learning outcomes in relation to competencies that are needed to fulfill them.
Ein konstruktivistischer Lehransatz für die Einführungsveranstaltung der Theoretischen Informatik
(2013)
Ausgehend von einem sozial-konstruktivistischen Verständnis von Lernprozessen und unter der besonderen Berücksichtigung der durch die Bologna-Studienreform angeregten Kompetenzorientierung, haben wir in den letzten Jahren einen hochschuldidaktischen Ansatz für die Einführungsveranstaltung im Bereich der Theoretischen Informatik an der Universität Potsdam entwickelt und praktisch erprobt. Nach zahlreichen Experimenten und mit einer Durchfallquote von zuletzt 6% im Wintersemester 2011/2012 haben wir den Eindruck, dass der Ansatz den Studierenden jene Lernumgebung und -anregung bietet, die ihnen hilft, die entsprechenden Fachkompetenzen in der Veranstaltung zu entwickeln. In diesem Artikel stellen wir unseren Ansatz vor und skizzieren abschlieÿend, wie wir diesen im nächsten Wintersemester empirisch evaluieren werden.
Die Orientierung am Outcome eines Lernprozesses stellt einen wichtigen Pfeiler einer kompetenzorientierten Informatiklehre dar. Im Beitrag werden Konzeption und Erfahrungen eines Projekts zur outcome-orientierten Neuausrichtung der Informatiklehre unter Berücksichtigung der Theorie des Constructive Alignment beschrieben. Nach der theoretischen Fundierung der Kompetenzproblematik wird anhand eines Formulierungsmodells ein Prozess zur Erarbeitung beobachtbarer Lernergebnisse dargestellt. Die Diskussion der Projektziele und Erfahrungen in der Umsetzung und Evaluierung unterstreichen die Chancen und Herausforderungen für eine Steigerung der Studienqualität.
Die Tagungsreihe zur Hochschuldidaktik der Informatik HDI wird vom Fachbereich Informatik und Ausbildung / Didaktik der Informatik (IAD) in der Gesellschaft für Informatik e. V. (GI) organisiert. Sie dient den Lehrenden der Informatik in Studiengängen an Hochschulen als Forum der Information und des Austauschs über neue didaktische Ansätze und bildungspolitische Themen im Bereich der Hochschulausbildung aus der fachlichen Perspektive der Informatik. Diese fünfte HDI 2012 wurde an der Universität Hamburg organisiert. Für sie wurde das spezielle Motto „Informatik für eine nachhaltige Zukunft“ gewählt, um insbesondere Fragen der Bildungsrelevanz informatischer Inhalte, der Kompetenzen für Studierende informatisch geprägter Studiengänge und der Rolle der Informatik in der Hochschulentwicklung zu diskutieren.
Nowadays, model-driven engineering (MDE) promises to ease software development by decreasing the inherent complexity of classical software development. In order to deliver on this promise, MDE increases the level of abstraction and automation, through a consideration of domain-specific models (DSMs) and model operations (e.g. model transformations or code generations). DSMs conform to domain-specific modeling languages (DSMLs), which increase the level of abstraction, and model operations are first-class entities of software development because they increase the level of automation. Nevertheless, MDE has to deal with at least two new dimensions of complexity, which are basically caused by the increased linguistic and technological heterogeneity. The first dimension of complexity is setting up an MDE environment, an activity comprised of the implementation or selection of DSMLs and model operations. Setting up an MDE environment is both time-consuming and error-prone because of the implementation or adaptation of model operations. The second dimension of complexity is concerned with applying MDE for actual software development. Applying MDE is challenging because a collection of DSMs, which conform to potentially heterogeneous DSMLs, are required to completely specify a complex software system. A single DSML can only be used to describe a specific aspect of a software system at a certain level of abstraction and from a certain perspective. Additionally, DSMs are usually not independent but instead have inherent interdependencies, reflecting (partial) similar aspects of a software system at different levels of abstraction or from different perspectives. A subset of these dependencies are applications of various model operations, which are necessary to keep the degree of automation high. This becomes even worse when addressing the first dimension of complexity. Due to continuous changes, all kinds of dependencies, including the applications of model operations, must also be managed continuously. This comprises maintaining the existence of these dependencies and the appropriate (re-)application of model operations. The contribution of this thesis is an approach that combines traceability and model management to address the aforementioned challenges of configuring and applying MDE for software development. The approach is considered as a traceability approach because it supports capturing and automatically maintaining dependencies between DSMs. The approach is considered as a model management approach because it supports managing the automated (re-)application of heterogeneous model operations. In addition, the approach is considered as a comprehensive model management. Since the decomposition of model operations is encouraged to alleviate the first dimension of complexity, the subsequent composition of model operations is required to counteract their fragmentation. A significant portion of this thesis concerns itself with providing a method for the specification of decoupled yet still highly cohesive complex compositions of heterogeneous model operations. The approach supports two different kinds of compositions - data-flow compositions and context compositions. Data-flow composition is used to define a network of heterogeneous model operations coupled by sharing input and output DSMs alone. Context composition is related to a concept used in declarative model transformation approaches to compose individual model transformation rules (units) at any level of detail. In this thesis, context composition provides the ability to use a collection of dependencies as context for the composition of other dependencies, including model operations. In addition, the actual implementation of model operations, which are going to be composed, do not need to implement any composition concerns. The approach is realized by means of a formalism called an executable and dynamic hierarchical megamodel, based on the original idea of megamodels. This formalism supports specifying compositions of dependencies (traceability and model operations). On top of this formalism, traceability is realized by means of a localization concept, and model management by means of an execution concept.
Virtual 3D city and landscape models are the main subject investigated in this thesis. They digitally represent urban space and have many applications in different domains, e.g., simulation, cadastral management, and city planning. Visualization is an elementary component of these applications. Photo-realistic visualization with an increasingly high degree of detail leads to fundamental problems for comprehensible visualization. A large number of highly detailed and textured objects within a virtual 3D city model may create visual noise and overload the users with information. Objects are subject to perspective foreshortening and may be occluded or not displayed in a meaningful way, as they are too small. In this thesis we present abstraction techniques that automatically process virtual 3D city and landscape models to derive abstracted representations. These have a reduced degree of detail, while essential characteristics are preserved. After introducing definitions for model, scale, and multi-scale representations, we discuss the fundamentals of map generalization as well as techniques for 3D generalization. The first presented technique is a cell-based generalization of virtual 3D city models. It creates abstract representations that have a highly reduced level of detail while maintaining essential structures, e.g., the infrastructure network, landmark buildings, and free spaces. The technique automatically partitions the input virtual 3D city model into cells based on the infrastructure network. The single building models contained in each cell are aggregated to abstracted cell blocks. Using weighted infrastructure elements, cell blocks can be computed on different hierarchical levels, storing the hierarchy relation between the cell blocks. Furthermore, we identify initial landmark buildings within a cell by comparing the properties of individual buildings with the aggregated properties of the cell. For each block, the identified landmark building models are subtracted using Boolean operations and integrated in a photo-realistic way. Finally, for the interactive 3D visualization we discuss the creation of the virtual 3D geometry and their appearance styling through colors, labeling, and transparency. We demonstrate the technique with example data sets. Additionally, we discuss applications of generalization lenses and transitions between abstract representations. The second technique is a real-time-rendering technique for geometric enhancement of landmark objects within a virtual 3D city model. Depending on the virtual camera distance, landmark objects are scaled to ensure their visibility within a specific distance interval while deforming their environment. First, in a preprocessing step a landmark hierarchy is computed, this is then used to derive distance intervals for the interactive rendering. At runtime, using the virtual camera distance, a scaling factor is computed and applied to each landmark. The scaling factor is interpolated smoothly at the interval boundaries using cubic Bézier splines. Non-landmark geometry that is near landmark objects is deformed with respect to a limited number of landmarks. We demonstrate the technique by applying it to a highly detailed virtual 3D city model and a generalized 3D city model. In addition we discuss an adaptation of the technique for non-linear projections and mobile devices. The third technique is a real-time rendering technique to create abstract 3D isocontour visualization of virtual 3D terrain models. The virtual 3D terrain model is visualized as a layered or stepped relief. The technique works without preprocessing and, as it is implemented using programmable graphics hardware, can be integrated with minimal changes into common terrain rendering techniques. Consequently, the computation is done in the rendering pipeline for each vertex, primitive, i.e., triangle, and fragment. For each vertex, the height is quantized to the nearest isovalue. For each triangle, the vertex configuration with respect to their isovalues is determined first. Using the configuration, the triangle is then subdivided. The subdivision forms a partial step geometry aligned with the triangle. For each fragment, the surface appearance is determined, e.g., depending on the surface texture, shading, and height-color-mapping. Flexible usage of the technique is demonstrated with applications from focus+context visualization, out-of-core terrain rendering, and information visualization. This thesis presents components for the creation of abstract representations of virtual 3D city and landscape models. Re-using visual language from cartography, the techniques enable users to build on their experience with maps when interpreting these representations. Simultaneously, characteristics of 3D geovirtual environments are taken into account by addressing and discussing, e.g., continuous scale, interaction, and perspective.

In der universitären Lehre ändert sich der Leitgedanke von einer qualifikationsorientierten hin zu einer kompetenzorientierten Ausbildung. Der Begriff Kompetenz lässt sich dabei grob in die fachlichen und die überfachlichen Kompetenzen unterteilen. Insbesondere die Vermittlung von Schlüsselqualifikationen hat in der Lehre von naturwissenschaftlichen Fachrichtungen nur unzureichend Einzug erhalten. Während der klassische Vorlesungsbetrieb auf den Erwerb von Fachkompetenz zielt, stoßen ausschließlich projektorientierte Veranstaltungen schnell an ihre Grenzen hinsichtlich der Teilnehmergröße oder Umfang der Lerninhalte. Um auf geeignete Art und Weise den Erwerb von überfachlichen Kompetenzen zu ermöglichen, bedarf es neuer didaktischer Konzepte, die eine engere Verknüpfung von klassischen Vorlesungen und dem projektorientierten Lernen vorsehen. In diesem Sinne versucht der skizzierte Ansatz der koordinierten Projektvorlesung(KoProV) Wissensvermittlung im Rahmen von Vorlesungseinheiten mit koordinierten Praxisphasen in Teilgruppen zu verbinden. Für eine erfolgreiche Durchführung und Erarbeitung des begleitenden Praxisprojektes durch mehrere Teilgruppen sind organisatorische und technische Randbedingungen zu beachten.
Ziel dieses Beitrages ist es, das didaktische Konzept Fallstudien und seine lerntheoretisch-didaktische Begründung vorzustellen. Es wird die These begründet, dass mediale Räume für die Bearbeitung von Fallstudien lernunterstützend wirken und sich in besonderer Weise für Prozesse der Lernberatung und Lernbegleitung in der Hochschule eignen. Diese These wird entlang dem lerntheoretischen Konzept der Bedeutungsräume von Studierenden in Verbindung mit den Spezifika medialer Räume entfaltet. Für den daraus entstandenen E-Learning-Ansatz Online-Fallstudien kann hier lediglich ein Ausblick gegeben werden.
Was ist eine kreative Leistung von Studierenden? Dies ist die Ausgangsfrage, wenn Lehre kreativitätsförderlicher als bislang gestaltet werden soll. In diesem Beitrag wird ein Modell zur Förderung von Kreativität in der Hochschullehre vorgestellt und mit einem Beispiel verdeutlicht. Es wird die veränderte Konzeption der Vorlesung Informatik & Gesellschaft illustriert: Studierende hatten die Aufgabe, eine „e-Infrastruktur für die Universität NeuDoBoDu“ zu entwickeln. Hierzu werden die Ergebnisse der Evaluation und Erfahrungen erläutert.
Für die Integration und den Bedarf der hochqualifizierten Migranten auf dem Arbeitsmarkt in Deutschland gibt es viele Überlegungen, aber noch keine ausreichenden Lösungen. Dieser Artikel beschreibt eine praktische Lösung über die Umsetzung des Konzepts für die Qualifizierung der akademischen Migranten am Beispiel eines Studienprogramms in Informatik an der Universität Oldenburg.
In der letzten Jahren ist die Zahl der erfolgreichen Prüfungen von Studierenden im Informatikkurs des ersten Studienjahres für verschiedene Studiengänge an der Universität Óbuda stark gesunken. Dies betrifft Prüfungen in den Teilgebieten Rechnerarchitektur, Betrieb von Peripheriegeräten, Binäre Codierung und logische Operationen, Computerviren, Computernetze und das Internet, Steganographie und Kryptographie, Betriebsysteme. Mehr als der Hälfte der Studenten konnte die Prüfungen der ersten Semester nicht erfolgreich absolvieren. Die hier vorgelegte Analyse der Studienleistungen zielt darauf ab, Gründe für diese Entwicklung zu identifizieren, die Zahl der Abbrecher zu reduzieren und die Leistungen der Studenten zu verbessern. Die Analyse zeigt, dass die Studenten die erforderlichen Lehrmaterialen erst ein bis zwei Tage vor oder sogar erst am Tag der Klausuren vom Server downloaden, so dass sie nicht mehr hinreichend Zeit zum Lernen haben. Diese Tendenz zeigt sich bei allen Teilgebieten des Studiengangs. Ein Mangel an kontinuierlicher Mitarbeit scheint einer der Gründe für ein frühes Scheitern zu sein. Ferner zeigt sich die Notwendigkeit, dass bei den Lehrangeboten in Informatik auf eine kontinuierliche Kommunikation mit den Studierenden und Rückmeldung zu aktuellen Unterrichtsinhalten zu achten ist. Dies kann durch motivierende Maßnahmen zur Teilnahme an den Übungen oder durch kleine wöchentliche schriftliche Tests geschehen.
Bei der Suche nach Möglichkeiten, die Weiterbildung für Informatiklehrkräfte auszubauen, bietet sich der Einsatz virtueller Lernräume an. Dieses Papier berichtet über ein Projekt, in dem ein exemplarischer virtueller Lernraum für kollaboratives Lernen in der Lehrerweiterbildung in Informatik theoriegeleitet erstellt, erprobt und bewertet wurde. Die erzielten Ergebnisse über das Nutzungsverhalten können für weitere E-Learningprojekte in der Lehrerbildung hilfreich sein. Der Schwerpunkt dieses Papiers liegt auf der Gestaltung des Lernraums unter Beachtung der speziellen Situation der Informatiklehrkräfte, nicht auf der didaktischen Aufbereitung der betreffenden Lerneinheit.
Projektmanagement-Kompetenzen werden von Unternehmen unterschiedlichster Branchen mit wachsender Priorität betrachtet und eingefordert. Als Beitrag zu einer kompetenzorientierten Ausbildung werden in diesem Paper interdisziplinäre Studienmodule als Bestandteil des Wirtschaftsinformatik-Studiums vorgestellt. Zielsetzung der Studienmodule ist die Befähigung der Studierenden, konkrete Projekte unter Nutzung von standardisierten Werkzeugen und Methoden nach dem IPMA-Standard planen und durchführen zu können.
Die Evaluierung von Lehrveranstaltungen hat in vielen Lehreinrichtungen eine lange Tradition. In diesen klassischen Evaluierungsszenarien werden einmalig pro Semester Umfragebögen an die Studierenden verteilt und anschließend manuell ausgewertet. Die Ergebnisse sind dann zumeist am Ende der Vorlesungszeit vorhanden und geben einen punktuellen Einblick in die Qualität der Lehrveranstaltung bis zum Zeitpunkt der durchgeführten Evaluation. In diesem Artikel stellen wir das Konzept des Rapid Feedback, seine Einsatzmöglichkeiten in universitären Lehrveranstaltungen und eine prototypische Integration in eine koaktive Lern- und Arbeitsumgebung vor.
Pseudo
(2010)
Pseudo ist eine auf Pseudocode basierende Programmiersprache, welche in der akademischen Lehre zum Einsatz kommen und hier die Vermittlung und Untersuchung von Algorithmen und Datenstrukturen unterstützen soll. Dieser Beitrag geht auf die Besonderheiten der Sprache sowie mögliche didaktische Szenarien ein.
Output statt Input
(2010)
Die in der Fachdidaktik Informatik im Zusammenhang mit den Bildungsstandards seit Jahren diskutierte Outputorientierung wird mittelfristig auch für die Hochschullehre verbindlich. Diese Änderung kann als Chance aufgefasst werden, aktuellen Problemen der Informatiklehre gezielt entgegenzuwirken. Basierend auf der Theorie des Constructive Alignment wird vorgeschlagen, im Zusammenhang mit der Outputorientierung eine Abstimmung von intendierter Kompetenz, Lernaktivität und Prüfung vorzunehmen. Zusätzlich profitieren Lehramtsstudenten von den im eigenen Lernprozess erworbenen Erfahrungen im Umgang mit Kompetenzen: wie diese formuliert, erarbeitet und geprüft werden. Anforderungen an die Formulierung von Kompetenzen werden untersucht, mit Beispielen belegt und Möglichkeiten zur Klassifizierung angeregt. Ein Austausch in den Fachbereichen und Fachdidaktiken über die individuell festgelegten Kompetenzen wird vorgeschlagen, um die hochschuldidaktische Diskussion zu bereichern.
Zusammenfassung: Game-based Learning und Edutainment sind aktuelle Schlagworte im Bereich der Hochschulausbildung. Zunächst verbindet man damit die Integration einer Spiel- und Spaßkultur in die herkömmlichen Lehrveranstaltungen wie Vorlesungen, Übungen, Praktika und Seminare. Die nachfolgenden Ausführungen gehen einer genaueren Begriffsanalyse nach und untersuchen, ob Game-based Learning und Edutainment tatsächlich neuartige Unterrichtsformen erfordern oder neue didaktische Überlegungen in bestehendes Unterrichtsgeschehen bringen – oder ob es nicht doch an einigen Stellen „alter Wein in neuen Schläuchen“ ist.
Die Studienanfänger der Informatik haben in Deutschland sehr unterschiedliche Grundkenntnisse in der Programmierung. Dies führt immer wieder zu Schwierigkeiten in der Ausrichtung der Einführungsveranstaltungen. An der TU München wird seit dem Wintersemester 2008/2009 nun eine neue Art von Vorkursen angeboten. In nur 2,5 Tagen erstellen die Teilnehmer ein kleines objektorientiertes Programm. Dabei arbeiten sie weitestgehend alleine, unterstützt von einem studentischen Tutor. In dieser Arbeit sollen nun das Konzept der sogenannten „Vorprojekte“ sowie erste Forschungsansätze vorgestellt werden
Die Möglichkeiten sich zu informieren, am Leben der vielen Anderen teilzunehmen ist durch das Internet mit seinen Tweets, Google-Angeboten und sozialen Netzwerken wie Facebook ins Unermessliche gewachsen. Zugleich fühlen sich viele Nutzer überfordert und meinen, im Meer der Informationen zu ertrinken. So bekennt Frank Schirrmacher in seinem Buch Payback, dass er den geistigen Anforderungen unserer Zeit nicht mehr gewachsen ist. Sein Kopf komme nicht mehr mit. Er sei unkonzentriert, vergesslich und ständig abgelenkt. Das, was vielen zum Problem geworden ist, sehen viele Studierende eher pragmatisch. Der Wissenserwerb in Zeiten von Internet und E-Learning läuft an Hochschulen häufig nach der Helene-Hegemann-Methode ab: Zunächst machen sich die Studierenden, z.B. im Rahmen einer Studien- oder Hausarbeit, bei Wikipedia „schlau“, ein Einstieg ist geschafft. Anschließend wird dieses Wissen mit Google angereichert. Damit ist Überblickswissen vorhanden. Mit geschickter copy-and-paste-Komposition lässt sich daraus schon ein „Werk“ erstellen. Der ein oder andere Studierende gibt sich mit diesem Wissenserwerb zufrieden und bricht seinen Lernprozess hier bereits ab. Nun ist zwar am Ende jeder Studierende für seinen Wissenserwerb selbst verantwortlich. Die erkennbar unbefriedigende Situation sollte die Hochschulen aber herausfordern, das Internet in Vorlesungen und Seminaren auszuprobieren und sinnvolle Anwendungen zu entwickeln. Beispiele gibt es durchaus. Unter der Metapher E-Learning hat sich ein umfangreicher Forschungsschwerpunkt an den Universitäten entwickelt. Einige Beispiele von vielen: So hat der Osnabrücker Informatik-Professor Oliver Vornberger seine Vorlesungen als Video ins Netz gestellt. Per RSS ist es möglich, Sequenzen aufs iPod zu laden. Die übliche Dozentenangst, dann würden sie ja vor leeren Bänken sitzen, scheint unbegründet. Sie werden von den Studierenden vor allem zur Prüfungsvorbereitung genutzt. Wie ist das Internet, das für die junge Generation zu einem alles andere verdrängenden Universalmedium geworden ist, didaktisch in die Hochschullehre einzubinden? Wie also ist konkret mit diesen Herausforderungen umzugehen? Dies soll uns im Folgenden beschäftigen.
In the early days of computer graphics, research was mainly driven by the goal to create realistic synthetic imagery. By contrast, non-photorealistic computer graphics, established as its own branch of computer graphics in the early 1990s, is mainly motivated by concepts and principles found in traditional art forms, such as painting, illustration, and graphic design, and it investigates concepts and techniques that abstract from reality using expressive, stylized, or illustrative rendering techniques. This thesis focuses on the artistic stylization of two-dimensional content and presents several novel automatic techniques for the creation of simplified stylistic illustrations from color images, video, and 3D renderings. Primary innovation of these novel techniques is that they utilize the smooth structure tensor as a simple and efficient way to obtain information about the local structure of an image. More specifically, this thesis contributes to knowledge in this field in the following ways. First, a comprehensive review of the structure tensor is provided. In particular, different methods for integrating the minor eigenvector field of the smoothed structure tensor are developed, and the superiority of the smoothed structure tensor over the popular edge tangent flow is demonstrated. Second, separable implementations of the popular bilateral and difference of Gaussians filters that adapt to the local structure are presented. These filters avoid artifacts while being computationally highly efficient. Taken together, both provide an effective way to create a cartoon-style effect. Third, a generalization of the Kuwahara filter is presented that avoids artifacts by adapting the shape, scale, and orientation of the filter to the local structure. This causes directional image features to be better preserved and emphasized, resulting in overall sharper edges and a more feature-abiding painterly effect. In addition to the single-scale variant, a multi-scale variant is presented, which is capable of performing a highly aggressive abstraction. Fourth, a technique that builds upon the idea of combining flow-guided smoothing with shock filtering is presented, allowing for an aggressive exaggeration and an emphasis of directional image features. All presented techniques are suitable for temporally coherent per-frame filtering of video or dynamic 3D renderings, without requiring expensive extra processing, such as optical flow. Moreover, they can be efficiently implemented to process content in real-time on a GPU.
E-Learning Symposium 2012
(2013)
Dieser Tagungsband beinhaltet die auf dem E-Learning Symposium 2012 an der Universität Potsdam vorgestellten Beiträge zu aktuellen Anwendungen, innovativen Prozesse und neuesten Ergebnissen im Themenbereich E-Learning. Lehrende, E-Learning-Praktiker und -Entscheider tauschten ihr Wissen über etablierte und geplante Konzepte im Zusammenhang mit dem Student-Life-Cycle aus. Der Schwerpunkt lag hierbei auf der unmittelbaren Unterstützung von Lehr- und Lernprozessen, auf Präsentation, Aktivierung und Kooperation durch Verwendung von neuen und etablierten Technologien.
In many applications one is faced with the problem of inferring some functional relation between input and output variables from given data. Consider, for instance, the task of email spam filtering where one seeks to find a model which automatically assigns new, previously unseen emails to class spam or non-spam. Building such a predictive model based on observed training inputs (e.g., emails) with corresponding outputs (e.g., spam labels) is a major goal of machine learning. Many learning methods assume that these training data are governed by the same distribution as the test data which the predictive model will be exposed to at application time. That assumption is violated when the test data are generated in response to the presence of a predictive model. This becomes apparent, for instance, in the above example of email spam filtering. Here, email service providers employ spam filters and spam senders engineer campaign templates such as to achieve a high rate of successful deliveries despite any filters. Most of the existing work casts such situations as learning robust models which are unsusceptible against small changes of the data generation process. The models are constructed under the worst-case assumption that these changes are performed such to produce the highest possible adverse effect on the performance of the predictive model. However, this approach is not capable to realistically model the true dependency between the model-building process and the process of generating future data. We therefore establish the concept of prediction games: We model the interaction between a learner, who builds the predictive model, and a data generator, who controls the process of data generation, as an one-shot game. The game-theoretic framework enables us to explicitly model the players' interests, their possible actions, their level of knowledge about each other, and the order at which they decide for an action. We model the players' interests as minimizing their own cost function which both depend on both players' actions. The learner's action is to choose the model parameters and the data generator's action is to perturbate the training data which reflects the modification of the data generation process with respect to the past data. We extensively study three instances of prediction games which differ regarding the order in which the players decide for their action. We first assume that both player choose their actions simultaneously, that is, without the knowledge of their opponent's decision. We identify conditions under which this Nash prediction game has a meaningful solution, that is, a unique Nash equilibrium, and derive algorithms that find the equilibrial prediction model. As a second case, we consider a data generator who is potentially fully informed about the move of the learner. This setting establishes a Stackelberg competition. We derive a relaxed optimization criterion to determine the solution of this game and show that this Stackelberg prediction game generalizes existing prediction models. Finally, we study the setting where the learner observes the data generator's action, that is, the (unlabeled) test data, before building the predictive model. As the test data and the training data may be governed by differing probability distributions, this scenario reduces to learning under covariate shift. We derive a new integrated as well as a two-stage method to account for this data set shift. In case studies on email spam filtering we empirically explore properties of all derived models as well as several existing baseline methods. We show that spam filters resulting from the Nash prediction game as well as the Stackelberg prediction game in the majority of cases outperform other existing baseline methods.
