The aim of the LeMO project was to create a multimedia information system on 20th century German history in the Internet. This work was carried out in a joint project by the German Historical Museum in Berlin, the Haus der Geschichte of the Federal Republic of Germany in Bonn and the Fraunhofer Institute for Software and Systems Engineering ISST in Berlin. The LeMO system provides various optio...

Component composition is an important objective of software engineering. It promises component reuse and therefore a productivity gain, because of shorter time-to-market and improved quality. Unfortunately, composition is difficult to achieve in practical terms, because of technological incompatibilities and diverging component specifications. The objective of this report is to define an Ontolo...

To deploy the enormous hardware resources available in Multi-Processor Systems-on-Chip (MPSoC) efficiently, rapidly and accurately, Design Space Exploration (DSE) methods are needed to assess the different design alternatives. In this paper, we present a platform that makes fast simulation and performance evaluation of MPSoC possible early in the design flow, thus reducing the time-to-market. I...

Solubil ity is one of the most important properties of calcium phosphate salts. It is the solubil ity that determines the direction of many reactions that involve calcium phosphates such as dissolution, precipitation, hydrolysis, and phase transformation. Calcium phosphate solubil ity also plays a maior role in biological processes that involve formation and resorption ol' hard tissues as well ...

In this paper we describe the development of a schema for the annotation of attribution relations and present the first findings and some relevant issues concerning this phenomenon. Following the D-LTAG approach to discourse, we have developed a lexically anchored description of attribution, considering this relation, contrary to the approach in the PDTB, independently from other discourse rela...

the winD inDustry has experienceD a rapid expansion. As wind farms are aging, their operations and maintenance issues are gaining in significance. The wind industry has been affected by failures of wind turbine components such as main bearings, gearboxes, and generators. Replacement of failed components results in the high cost in energy production. Therefore, research in fault identification a...

INTRODUCTION The unlimited access to sexual features in the World Wide Web has raised concerns about excessive and problematic online-sex use. However, little is known about antecedents of internet-sex use of different intensity. Based on a representative German sample of 2,522 participants between the ages of 14 and 97 years, the aims of the present study were (1) to determine the prevalence r...

This project deals with verb-particle constructions (VPCs) in the context of statistical machine translation, with the purpose of finding out if and to what degree they affect translation quality in English and German. Its main goal is to identify which types of VPCs cause translation errors and to find possible solutions to this problem. VPCs are a type of multiword expressions (MWEs), meaning...
