Vom Signal zur Information
(2013)
"Die richtige Information zur richtigen Zeit am richtigen Ort", so lautet das Diktum der modernen Informationsgesellschaften. Methoden zur Beschaffung aktueller Informationen lernen die Studierenden des Fachbereichs Sozialversicherung gleich in mehreren Modulen während ihres Studiums in Hennef. Auf die Nutzung von BG-internen Informationssystemen wird dabei ebenso eingegangen wie auf die Inanspruchnahme sogenannter Informationsprovider wie beispielsweise dem Deutschen Institut für Medizinische Dokumentation und Information (DIMDI) oder den National Institutes of Health (NIH).
In this paper we present the steps towards a well-designed concept of a 5VR6 system for school experiments in scientific domains like physics, biology and chemistry. The steps include the analysis of system requirements in general, the analysis of school experiments and the analysis of input and output devices demands. Based on the results of these steps we show a taxonomy of school experiments and provide a comparison between several currently available devices which can be used for building such a system. We also compare the advantages and shortcomings of 5VR6 and 5AR6 systems in general to show why, in our opinion, 5VR6 systems are better suited for school-use.
The reciprocal translocation t(12;21)(p13;q22), the most common structural genomic alteration in B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukaemia in children, results in a chimeric transcription factor TEL-AML1 (ETV6-RUNX1). We identified directly and indirectly regulated target genes utilizing an inducible TEL-AML1 system derived from the murine pro B-cell line BA/F3 and a monoclonal antibody directed against TEL-AML1. By integration of promoter binding identified with chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP)-on-chip, gene expression and protein output through microarray technology and stable labelling of amino acids in cell culture, we identified 217 directly and 118 indirectly regulated targets of the TEL-AML1 fusion protein. Directly, but not indirectly, regulated promoters were enriched in AML1-binding sites. The majority of promoter regions were specific for the fusion protein and not bound by native AML1 or TEL. Comparison with gene expression profiles from TEL-AML1-positive patients identified 56 concordantly misregulated genes with negative effects on proliferation and cellular transport mechanisms and positive effects on cellular migration, and stress responses including immunological responses. In summary, this work for the first time gives a comprehensive insight into how TEL-AML1 expression may directly and indirectly contribute to alter cells to become prone for leukemic transformation.
Tamoxifen therapy of invasive breast cancer has been associated with increased levels of endothelin-1 (ET-1) so that an endothelin-1 receptor (ETR) blockade has been suggested as a new therapeutic approach. This study analyzed the relationship between Tamoxifen and ET-1 signalling in invasive breast cancer. Using paraffinized tissue from 50 randomly chosen cases of invasive and in-situ ductal carcinoma from our archive, the expression of ETRs was analyzed by immune histology. ETRs were regularly detectable in normal breast tissue, but rarely in adjacent tumor areas (3/50 cases). By immunoprecipitation, a complex was found consisting of ET-1, estrogen receptors and Tamoxifen. Consequently, transcription of several target genes of ET-1 and estrogen receptors was detectable (interleukin-6, wnt-11 and a vimentin spliceform). In particular, the combination of Tamoxifen, ET-1, and estrogen receptors induced further increasing levels of these target genes. Some of these genes have been found upregulated in metastatically spreading breast cancer cells. We conclude: i) ETRs do not play a role in invasive or in-situ ductal breast cancer; ii) estrogen receptors and Tamoxifen build a complex with ET-1; and iii) upregulated transcription of target genes by ET-1–estrogen receptor–Tamoxifen complex may negatively influence breast cancer prognosis. These results indicate a role for ET-1 in Tamoxifen treated breast cancer patients leading to a potentially worsening prognosis.
Molecular modeling is an important subdomain in the field of computational modeling, regarding both scientific and industrial applications. This is because computer simulations on a molecular level are a virtuous instrument to study the impact of microscopic on macroscopic phenomena. Accurate molecular models are indispensable for such simulations in order to predict physical target observables, like density, pressure, diffusion coefficients or energetic properties, quantitatively over a wide range of temperatures. Thereby, molecular interactions are described mathematically by force fields. The mathematical description includes parameters for both intramolecular and intermolecular interactions. While intramolecular force field parameters can be determined by quantum mechanics, the parameterization of the intermolecular part is often tedious. Recently, an empirical procedure, based on the minimization of a loss function between simulated and experimental physical properties, was published by the authors. Thereby, efficient gradient-based numerical optimization algorithms were used. However, empirical force field optimization is inhibited by the two following central issues appearing in molecular simulations: firstly, they are extremely time-consuming, even on modern and high-performance computer clusters, and secondly, simulation data is affected by statistical noise. The latter provokes the fact that an accurate computation of gradients or Hessians is nearly impossible close to a local or global minimum, mainly because the loss function is flat. Therefore, the question arises of whether to apply a derivative-free method approximating the loss function by an appropriate model function. In this paper, a new Sparse Grid-based Optimization Workflow (SpaGrOW) is presented, which accomplishes this task robustly and, at the same time, keeps the number of time-consuming simulations relatively small. This is achieved by an efficient sampling procedure for the approximation based on sparse grids, which is described in full detail: in order to counteract the fact that sparse grids are fully occupied on their boundaries, a mathematical transformation is applied to generate homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions. As the main drawback of sparse grids methods is the assumption that the function to be modeled exhibits certain smoothness properties, it has to be approximated by smooth functions first. Radial basis functions turned out to be very suitable to solve this task. The smoothing procedure and the subsequent interpolation on sparse grids are performed within sufficiently large compact trust regions of the parameter space. It is shown and explained how the combination of the three ingredients leads to a new efficient derivative-free algorithm, which has the additional advantage that it is capable of reducing the overall number of simulations by a factor of about two in comparison to gradient-based optimization methods. At the same time, the robustness with respect to statistical noise is maintained. This assertion is proven by both theoretical considerations and practical evaluations for molecular simulations on chemical example substances.
Qualitätsverbesserung und Zeitersparnis bei der Stipendienvergabe durch automatisierten Workflow
(2013)
Für die Vergabe der Deutschlandstipendien hatte die Hochschule anfangs ein Verfahren festgelegt, das viel manuelle Arbeitsschritte umfasst: Die Studierenden hatten ihre Bewerbungsunterlagen schriftlich einzureichen. Dazu gehörten neben einem Motivationsschreiben, einem Ausdruck des aktuellen Notenspiegels alle weiteren Referenzen zur Einschätzung der Bewerbung gemäß den gesetzlichen Auswahlkriterien. Als Grundlage zur Bewertung der „sozialen Kriterien“ sollten die Bewerberinnen und Bewerber ein Gutachten eines Professors oder einer Professorin der Hochschule einholen.
Mathematische Vorkurse werden zur Vorbereitung auf das Studium allen Studienanfängerinnen und Studienanfängern der Ingenieurmathematik dringend empfohlen, aber leider fällt es immer schwerer, die Lücke zwischen den Erwartungen an die Vorkenntnisse der Studierenden und dem tatsächlichen Rüstwerkzeug der Studienanfänger/innen zu schließen. In diesem Artikel wird die Projektidee vorgestellt, im Rahmen einer Zusammenarbeit mit dem internationalen ROLE-Projekt einen mathematischen Vorkurs durch zusätzliche Elemente aus dem Bereich der Open Educational Resources sinnvoll zu ergänzen, um eine Binnendifferenzierung zu ermöglichen und den Studierenden zu erleichtern, sich in den Lehrstoff individuell einzuarbeiten.
Für kleinere Unternehmen mit geringen Ressourcen ist die Gestaltung des QM-Systems eine beträchtliche Herausforderung: Welche Methoden und Maßnahmen sind nötig und bestgeeignet, um die Qualitätskosten nachhaltig zu senken? Durch individuelle und ganzheitliche Betrachtung des Unternehmens sowie Einsatz der Kraftfeldanalyse gelang es einem Metallverarbeiter, ein maßgeschneidertes und dauerhaft wirksames QM-System zu implementieren.
IT-gestütztes IT-Controlling

Vom deutschen Hochschulbetrieb nur teilweise bemerkt, ist das Übereinkommen über die Anerkennung von Qualifikationen im Hochschulbereich in der europäischen Region von 1997 (sog. Lissabon-Konvention) in Deutschland 2007 in Kraft getreten. Die Konvention – entstanden auf Initiative des Europarats und der UNESCO – ist ein völkerrechtlicher Vertrag, der mittlerweile von über 50 Staaten ratifiziert wurde. Er regelt die Anerkennung von im Ausland erworbenen Hochschulqualifikationen und absolvierten Studienzeiten.
Hochschulen beschäftigen sich mit der Frage, wie Lehrveranstaltungen und Forschungsprojekte durch den Einsatz digitaler Werkzeuge und Lernplattformen begleitet und ergänzt werden können. Bibliotheken spielen hierbei häufig eine tragende Rolle, auf ganz unterschiedliche Art und Weise: Als Content-Entwickler und -Provider, als Supportstelle oder als E-Learning-Beratungsstelle für Lehrende und Studierende.
The criteria for assessing the quality of rubber materials are the polymer or copolymer composition and the additives. These additives include plasticizers, extender oils, carbon black, inorganic fillers, antioxidants, heat and light stabilizers, processing aids, cross-linking agents, accelerators, retarders, adhesives, pigments, smoke and flame retardants, and others. Determination of additives in polymers or copolymers generally requires the extraction of these substances from the matrix as a first step, which can be challenging, and the subsequent analysis of the extracted additives by gas chromatography (GC), GC-mass spectrometry (MS), high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), HPLC-MS, capillary electrophoresis, thin-layer chromatography, and other analytical techniques. In the present work, nitrile rubber materials were studied using direct analytical flash pyrolysis hyphenated to GC and electrospray ionization MS in both scan and selected ion monitoring modes to demonstrate that this technique is a good tool to identify the organic additives in nitrile rubber.
Generating and visualizing large areas of vegetation that look natural makes terrain surfaces much more realistic. However, this is a challenging field in computer graphics, because ecological systems are complex and visually appealing plant models are geometrically detailed. This work presents Silva (System for the Instantiation of Large Vegetated Areas), a system to generate and visualize large vegetated areas based on the ecological surrounding. Silva generates vegetation on Wang-tiles with associated reusable distributions enabling multi-level instantiation. This paper presents a method to generate Poisson Disc Distributions (PDDs) with variable radii on Wang-tile sets (without a global optimization) that is able to generate seamless tilings. Because Silva has a freely configurable generation pipeline and can consider plant neighborhoods it is able to incorporate arbitrary abiotic and biotic components during generation. Based on multi-levelinstancing and nested kd-trees, the distributions on the Wang-tiles allow their acceleration structures to be reused during visualization. This enables Silva to visualize large vegetated areas of several hundred square kilometers with low render times and a small memory footprint.
In discussions of gambling addiction to specific games, the market size and the proceeds generated by the game are usually disregarded. Inclusion of these parameters results in a relativization of the picture of gambling addiction. A fundamental principle for such an analysis is the separation between absolute numbers and ratios, which is a common procedure in economic contexts.
Increased endothelin-1 decreases PKC alpha (PKCα), resulting in high miRNA 15a levels in kidney tumors. Breast cancer cells treated with ET-1, β-estrogen, Tamoxifen, Tamoxifen + β-estrogen and Tamoxifen + ET-1 were analysed regarding miRNA 15a expression. Significantly increased miRNA 15a levels were found after ET-1, becoming further increased in Tamoxifen + ET-1 treated cells. Our group already showed that miRNA 15a induces MAPK p38 splicing resulting in a truncated product called Mxi-2, whose function has yet to be defined in tumors. We described for the first time in ET-1 induced tumor cells that Mxi-2 builds a complex with Ago2, a miRNA binding protein, which is important for the localization of miRNAs to the 3′UTR of target genes. Furthermore, we show that Mxi-2/Ago2 is important for the interaction with the miRNA 1285 which binds to the 3′end of the tumor suppressor gene p53, being responsible for the downregulation of p53. Tissue arrays from breast cancer patients were performed, analysing Mxi-2, p53 and PKCα. Since the Mxi-2 levels increase in Tamoxifen + ET-1 treated cells, we claim that increasing ET-1 levels in Tamoxifen treated breast cancer patients are responsible for decreasing p53 levels. In summary, ET-1 decreases nuclear PKCα levels, while increasing the amount of miRNA 15a. This causes high levels of Mxi-2, necessary for complex formation with Ago2. The newly identified Mxi-2/Ago2 complex interacting with miRNA 1285 leads to increased 3′UTR p53 interaction, resulting in decreased p53 levels and subsequent tumor progression. This newly identified mechanism is a possible explanation for the development of ET-1 induced tumors.
Die Greenpocket GmbH hat in Kooperation mit der Hochschule Bonn-Rhein-Sieg eine Studie zum Thema Smart Home durchgeführt. Wie die Onlinebefragung zeigt, ist die Zahlungsbereitschaft für Smart-Home-Lösungen bei jungen, technikaffinen Verbrauchern, den Digital Natives, höher ls bisher angenommen. Insgesamt umfasste der Online-Fragebogen 32 Fragen. Teile der Befragung wurden nach dem Kano-Modell konzipiert. Zu den Ergebnissen der Befragung: Der Steuerung über das Smartphone kommt eine wichtige Rolle zu. Insgesamt ist die Qualität wichtiger als ein niedriger Preis. Langfristig sollte ein Smart Home die Gewohnheiten des Nutzers automatisch erkennen und berücksichtigen können. Die Anbindung an soziale Netzwerke wird hingegen kritisch beurteilt. Als wünschenswert wird die Steuerung von Haushalts- und Elektrogeräten in Abhängigkeit vom Strompreis empfunden.
