A gravity and geologic survey was carried out over a port ion of the Nelson ultramafic belt of the South Island . In this region, the ultramafic rocks outcrop over a 5-mile-wide belt and abut against the Alpine greywacke along the right lateral transcurrent Alpine Fault. The dunite and peridotite of the ultram afic belt as well as the overlying geosynclinal sediments strike north . At their sou...

We present a calibration method for multi-view cameras that provides a rigorous maximum likelihood estimation of the mutual orientation of the cameras within a rigid multi-camera system. No calibration targets are needed, just a movement of the multi-camera system taking synchronized images of a highly textured and static scene. Multi-camera systems with non-overlapping views have to be rotated...

Semantics-Preserving Query Distribution in Federated Data Stream Environments In recent years Stream-Processing Systems (SPSs) made their way from research to commercial use, yet standardization still lacks behind. Consequently, we expect to see a variety of different SPSs in larger organizations. The integration of multiple SPSs is currently a labor-intensive task. Federated Data-Stream System...

Jahrestagungen einer wissenschaftlichen Fachgesellschaft mit ihren Symposien,Workshops und Postersitzungen mögen Höhepunkte fachlichen Austauschs sein und willkommene Gelegenheiten bieten, die Aktualität des eigenen Wissens und Könnens auf den Prüfstand zu stellen. In Gebieten, die sich in Theorie und Praxis rasch weiterentwickeln, reichen diese sporadischen Gelegenheiten jedoch kaum aus. Die m...

Fast hundert Jahre nach der Vorhersage von Neutrinos sind wir heute in Lage, diese faszinierenden Elementarteilchen als Boten aus dem All zu nutzen. Sie helfen uns, die extremsten Phänomene im Universum verstehen. IceCube ist das erste Neutrinoteleskop, kritische Größe erreicht hat, um Neutrinosignale messen. Damit lassen sich Schlüsse über ihre Herkunft und Eigenschaften ihrer Quellen ziehen. ...

Data are presented coacerning the location of the center of gravity of the adult male in various body positione and the ability to shift the c.g. voluntarily with various body motions. M,•imum possible shifts of the e.g. from tbat of an erect standing posture were found to be IMI inches toward the head, 10 inches toward the feet, 8 inches anteriorly, 4% inches posteriorly and 41 inches laterall...
