The work done in this thesis enhances the MMD algorithm in multi-core environments. The MMD algorithm, a transformation based algorithm for reversible logic synthesis, is based on the works introduced by Maslov, Miller and Dueck and their original, sequential implementation. It synthesises a formal function specification, provided by a truth table, into a reversible network and is able to perform several optimization steps after the synthesis. This work concentrates on one of these optimization steps, the template matching. This approach is used to reduce the size of the reversible circuit by replacing a number of gates that match a template which implements the same function and uses less gates. Smaller circuits have several benefits since they need less area and are not as costly. The template matching approach introduced in the original works is computationally expensive since it tries to match a library of templates against the given circuit. For each template at each position in the circuit, a number of different combinations have to be calculated during runtime resulting in high execution times, especially for large circuits. In order to make the template matching approach more efficient and usable, it has been reimplemented in order to take advantage of modern multi-core architectures such as the Cell Broadband Engine or a Graphics Processing Unit. For this work, two algorithmically different approaches that try to consider each multi-core architecture’s strengths, have been analyzed and improved. For the analysis these approaches have been cross-implemented on the two target hardware architectures and compared to the original parallel versions. Important metrics for this analysis are the execution time of the algorithm and the result of the minimization with the template matching approach. It could be shown that the algorithmically different approaches produce the same minimization results, independent of the used hardware architecture. However, both cross-implementations also show a significantly higher execution time which makes them practically irrelevant. The results of the first analysis and comparison lead to the decision to enhance only the original parallel approaches. Using the same metrics for successful enhancements as mentioned above, it could be shown that improving the algorithmic concepts and exploiting the capabilities of the hardware lead to better results for the execution time and the minimization results compared to their original implementations.
Dieses Buch ist kein Lehrbuch im eigentlichen Sinne. Aus Vorlesungsskripten entstanden, verfolgt es das Ziel, den Studenten der Wirtschaftswissenschaften an Fachhochschulen und Universitäten eine systematische, auf das Wesentliche konzentrierte Lernhilfe mit Übungen zur Vorbereitung auf Prüfungen im Grundstudium im Fach „Unternehmensbesteuerung“ anzubieten.
This paper addresses special skills, learners in Internet-based learning scenarios need. In self-directed learning scenarios, as most Internet-based learning scenarios are designed, learners bear the responsibility for their learning progress. To ease this task, institutions could prime the learners for the situation which may be quite different to their previous learning experiences. Basing on a Delphi-study, conducted with experts from the e-Learning sector in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland, the basic requirements have been determined.

The small and remote households in Northern regions demand thermal energy rather than electricity. Wind turbine in such places can be used to convert wind energy into thermal energy directly using a heat generator based on the principle of the Joule machine. The heat generator driven by a wind turbine can reduce the cost of energy for heating system. However the optimal performance of the system depends on the torque-speed characteristics of the wind turbine and the heat generator. To achieve maximum efficiency of operation both characteristics should be matched. In the article the condition of optimal performance is developed and an example of the system operating at maximum efficiency is simulated.
Der I. Senat des BFH hat dem Großen Senat mit Beschluss vom 7.4.2010 die Frage vorgelegt, ob der subjektive Fehlerbegriff zwar in Bezug auf nach Bilanzaufstellung neu bekanntgewordene Tatsachen beizubehalten, in Bezug auf bessere Rechtserkenntnisse nach Bilanzaufstellung aber aufzugeben ist. Der Große Senat hat insoweit eine schwierige Entscheidung zu treffen, da sich materielles Bilanzsteuerrecht, Verfahrensrecht und Handelsrecht bei dieser Frage überlagern. hat schon 1991 von einem heillosen und verworrenen Labyrinth gesprochen, in dem es schwer falle, die Prinzipien zu erkennen. Zusätzlich hat der Große Senat unter dem Gesichtspunkt der Kontinuität der Rechtsprechung und der Rechtssicherheit abzuwägen, ob es gerechtfertigt ist, eine seit 50 Jahren bestehende Rechtsprechung aufzugeben. Die Entscheidung des Großen Senats hat sich durch den Präsidentenwechsel beim BFH verzögert, ist aber nunmehr in nächster Zeit zu erwarten.
Based on our reconfigurable FPGA spectrometer technology, we have developed a read-out system, operating in the frequency domain, for arrays of Microwave Kinetic Inductance Detectors (MKIDs). The readout consists of a combination of two digital boards: A programmable DAC-/FPGA-board (tone-generator) to stimulate the MKIDs detectors and an ADC-/FPGA-unit to analyze the detectors response. Laboratory measurement show no deterioration of the noise performance compared to low noise analog mixing. Thus, this technique allows capturing several hundreds of detector signals with just one pair of coaxial cables.
Green IT (Green IS, Green ICT) is a concept of saving energy consumption to reduce IT costs. A current survey shows that only few companies in German speaking countries consider this aspect in their daily business. This is important facing the current situation of attempts of cost saving during the current economic crisis worldwide. This paper introduces into Green IT and presents an IT management and controlling concept. Then the main results of a currently presented survey are used to modify the concept. Finally an agenda for future research is given
