20 Jahre Hochschul- und Kreisbibliothek Bonn-Rhein-Sieg: Eine ungewöhnliche Erfolgsgeschichte
(2018)
Als am 28. September 1998 Oberkreisdirektor Frithjof Kühn (der spätere Landrat) und Kreisdirektorin Monika Lohr für den Rhein-Sieg-Kreis sowie Gründungsrektor Prof. Dr. Hubert Severin und Kanzler Hans Stender für die Fachhochschule Rhein-Sieg (heute Hochschule Bonn-Rhein-Sieg) einen Kooperationsvertrag unterschrieben, taten sie etwas sehr Ungewöhnliches: Die wissenschaftliche Bibliothek der Fachhochschule und die öffentliche Bibliothek des Rhein-Sieg-Kreises sollten organisatorisch und räumlich zusammengelegt werden.
Innovative Technologien, veränderte Anbieterstrukturen, stets neue Leistungsangebote und wandelnde Kundenanforderungen prägen und verändern von Beginn an das Erscheinungsbild des TK-Marktes. Unter Berücksichtigung einer Betrachtung im Zeitablauf lässt sich der Markt in drei aufeinanderfolgende Phasen einteilen: 1. Marktöffnung, 2. Konsolidierung und Optimierung, 3. Automatisierung. Die Phasen sind selbstverständlich nicht Überschneidungsfrei, geben jedoch einen Hinweis auf die strukturellen Veränderungen des Marktes.
3D user interfaces for virtual reality and games: 3D selection, manipulation, and spatial navigation
(2018)
In this course, we will take a detailed look at different topics in the field of 3D user interfaces (3DUIs) for Virtual Reality and Gaming. With the advent of Augmented and Virtual Reality in numerous application areas, the need and interest in more effective interfaces becomes prevalent, among others driven forward by improved technologies, increasing application complexity and user experience requirements. Within this course, we highlight key issues in the design of diverse 3DUIs by looking closely into both simple and advanced 3D selection/manipulation and spatial navigation interface design topics. These topics are highly relevant, as they form the basis for most 3DUI-driven application, yet also can cause major issues (performance, usability, experience. motion sickness) when not designed properly as they can be difficult to handle. Within this course, we build on top of a general understanding of 3DUIs to discuss typical pitfalls by looking closely at theoretical and practical aspects of selection, manipulation, and navigation and highlight guidelines for their use.
In Fortführung zu den drei erfolgreichen „Usable Security und Privacy“ Workshops der letzten drei Jahre, sollen in einem vierten ganztätigen wissenschaftlichen Workshop auf der diesjährigen Mensch und Computer sechs bis acht Arbeiten auf dem Gebiet Usable Security and Privacy vorgestellt und diskutiert werden. Vorgesehen sind Beiträge aus Forschung und Praxis, die neue nutzerzentrierte Ansätze aber auch praxisrelevante Lösungen zur nutzerzentrierten Entwicklung und Ausgestaltung von digitalen Schutzmechanismen thematisieren. Mit dem Workshop soll das etablierte Forum weiterentwickelt werden, in dem sich Experten aus unterschiedlichen Domänen, z. B. dem Usability-Engineering und Security-Engineering, transdisziplinär austauschen können. Der Workshop wird von den Organisatoren als klassischer wissenschaftlicher Workshop ausgestaltet. Ein Programmkomitee bewertet die Einreichungen und wählt daraus die zur Präsentation akzeptierten Beiträge aus. Diese werden zudem im Poster- und Workshopband der Mensch und Computer 2018 veröffentlicht.
This paper describes a dynamic, model-based approach for estimating intensities of 22 out of 44 different basic facial muscle movements. These movements are defined as Action Units (AU) in the Facial Action Coding System (FACS) [1]. The maximum facial shape deformations that can be caused by the 22 AUs are represented as vectors in an anatomically based, deformable, point-based face model. The amount of deformation along these vectors represent the AU intensities, and its valid range is [0, 1]. An Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) with state constraints is used to estimate the AU intensities. The focus of this paper is on the modeling of constraints in order to impose the anatomically valid AU intensity range of [0, 1]. Two process models are considered, namely constant velocity and driven mass-spring-damper. The results show the temporal smoothing and disambiguation effect of the constrained EKF approach, when compared to the frame-by-frame model fitting approach ‘Regularized Landmark Mean-Shift (RLMS)’ [2]. This effect led to more than 35% increase in performance on a database of posed facial expressions.
A Method for the Sustainable Documentation of Operations Processes in Parcel Distribution Centers
(2018)
There is often no common understanding on operational processes in logistics companies as they are not properly documented. Hence, people execute the same process differently and training is conducted by experienced operators on an ad-hoc basis. Furthermore, continuous process improvement is hampered as neither the ideal process nor current issues in as-is processes are visible. A major reason for the missing documentation is the complexity of existing business process modelling languages. Modelling experts are required for initially describing the processes and also for updating the models after process changes. Furthermore, operations people are usually not used to read complex process models in EPCs or BPMN diagrams. In order to overcome these limitations, a domain-specific modelling language which facilitates maintaining up-to-date process models has been designed with a large logistics company in Germany. The paper at hand briefly describes this language and illustrates the method on how to apply it in operations environments.
The increasing complexity of tasks that are required to be executed by robots demands higher reliability of robotic platforms. For this, it is crucial for robot developers to consider fault diagnosis. In this study, a general non-intrusive fault diagnosis system for robotic platforms is proposed. A mini-PC is non-intrusively attached to a robot that is used to detect and diagnose faults. The health data and diagnosis produced by the mini-PC is then standardized and transmitted to a remote-PC. A storage device is also attached to the mini-PC for data logging of health data in case of loss of communication with the remote-PC. In this study, a hybrid fault diagnosis method is compared to consistency-based diagnosis (CBD), and CBD is selected to be deployed on the system. The proposed system is modular and can be deployed on different robotic platforms with minimum setup.
