description: In this study, a comparison was made between two CRT display angles: 10 and 45 degrees. The hypothesis was that if you have an ergonomically designed workstation and the CRT is tilted at 45-degree angle, making it perpendicular to the line of sight, there would be an improvement in character detection and productivity. My approach for comparing the two display angles was to randomly assign both display-angle conditions to 38 subjects, measuring their average speed and accuracy. These paired responses were then analyzed by computing their differences. The results indicated that there had in fact been a decrease in accuracy in switching from a 10-degree display to a 45-degree display. Lack of familiarity with a 45-degree display may have produced this difference. Ergonomics and workstation design are important considerations in using computer screens. My results suggest that more research is needed on human factors involved in display orientation and workstation design.

title: Die Bedeutung des Gebets im Hinblick auf das moralische Verhalten von 14- bis 18-jährigen Muslimen in Salzburg
Creators: name: Ossman, Ali Mohamed Hussain
Year: 2013

description: Für die Jugendlichen ist der Islam nicht nur der Glaube an Allah, sondern ein Regelwerk, das ihr Verhalten diszipliniert. Der Islam verkörpert auch eine bestimmte religiöse Lehre, die Jugendlichen zur Entwicklung eines guten Charakters verhelfen soll. Eine dieser religiösen Lehren ist das rituelle Gebet. Es bedeutet nicht nur die Bewegungen und körperlichen Handlungen von Verbeugung und Niederwerfung, sondern ist ein alle Arten von Werten umfassender Gottesdienst, der zum Aufbau einer guten Persönlichkeit verhilft. Das rituelle Gebet hat ethische Dimensionen, die sich in der Wahrheit, der Ehrlichkeit und dem Wissen darstellen. Diese Eigenschaften sind Aspekte der wichtigsten Werte, die dem sozialen Verhalten des Muslims entspringen. Dementsprechend wirkt sich das Gebet auf das Verhalten des Muslim aus, weil der Beter wahrheitsgemäß handelt, hilfsbereit und zuverlässig ist, denn sein rituelles Gebet hält ihn vom Abscheulichen und zu Missbilligendem ab, und der Beter tritt in eine geistige Kommunikation mit Allah. In dieser Arbeit wird untersucht, wie sich der Zusammenhang des rituellen Gebets mit den moralischen Werten gestaltet, was das rituelle Gebet für die Jugendlichen bedeutet und inwieweit es einen Einfluss auf ihr Verhalten gegenüber der Familie, den Freunden und der Gesellschaft ausübt. Das Ziel dieser Arbeit ist es, die Wirkung des rituellen Gebets auf das Verhalten einiger Jugendlichen in ihrer Lebenswelt darzustellen, um zu erkunden, welchen Stellenwert es in ihrem Leben einnimmt. Anhand der Analyse der Interviews kann festgestellt werden, dass das Gebet zu einem besseren Verhalten im täglichen Leben der Jugendlichen führt. Sie haben sich nach der Verrichtung des Gebets verändert und sind den Eltern und den Menschen gegenüber ruhiger, höflicher und friedlicher geworden. Die Jugendlichen denken, dass das rituelle Gebet eine Wirkung auf ihr Verhalten hat, denn seit sie zu beten begonnen haben, versuchen sie, alle Handlungen in bester Absicht auszuführen. Nach dem rituellen Gebet vergegenwärtigen sie sich immer wieder, ob ihre Taten nach islamischem Verständnis gut sind oder nicht.

description: Luc Ferry and Alain Renaut in their book French Philosophy of the Sixties: An Essay on Antihumanism (1985) argue that the postmodern movement went astray when it rejected the existential subject as metaphysical. This is an oversimplification of their argument, but I think that their basic argument for the reintroduction of the subject to achieve an authentic humanism is correct. Although, I think Ferry and Renaut make the mistake of assuming they must reject postmodern thought all together to be able to reestablish a humanism, I argue that the philosopher Lev Shestov (A Russian existentialist) offers an interpretation of the subject, and system building in general, that is compatible with the systematicity expounded by Derrida and deconstruction. Unlike Ferry and Renaut, who argue that the postmodern tradition is a doomed antihumanism, I think that the postmodern framework offered by deconstruction--and facilitated by voluntarism--is able to give an articulation of the subject adequate for a "new" humanism.Chairman: Patricia E.

Intelligent interface to Unix
Creators: name: Chatterjee, Mahesh
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: The new trend in computing is to provide intelligent assistance to computer users. Most commercial contemporary user-interface technology offers no concept of "intelligence" so that the user is relieved of learning command syntax. Existing methods of extracting user information are studied. Graph theory has been used to logically organize knowledge about Unix data manipulation commands and search algorithms were used to traverse the digraph many times, and in each case sequence of commands were generated. Few of these sequences define real-world user tasks. Research results showed that the adjusted breadth-first algorithm helped to generate the sequence of Unix commands from inputs extracted from user query. The approach followed could be implemented as a conventional software system or as an expert system that stores the digraph of Unix commands. For automatic task generation, we were facing an NP-Complete problem of subgraph isomorphism. With our small set of commands we were not able to define "tasks". A grammar approach generates different valid combinations, which can be studied by an expert system. (Abstract shortened with permission of author.).

description: Diese Arbeit analysiert Medialisierungspraktiken von Theatern in den digitalen Kommunikationskanälen des Social Webs. Im Kontext medientheoretischer Thesen über die kollektive und kollaborative Nutzung des Web 2.0 hinsichtlich daraus entstehender Marketingstrategien für das Kulturmanagement und theatertheoretischer Konzepte wie Performativität, werden zunächst Berührungspunkte zwischen den Sozialen Online Medien und etablierten Theaterbegriffen herausgearbeitet. Untersuchungsgegenstand des Analyseteils dieser Arbeit sind Unternehmensprofile von Theatern im deutschsprachigen Raum im sozialen Netzwerk Facebook. Das Partizipationsverhalten von Theatern wird nach performativen und medialen Praktiken untersucht und erläutert. Demnach erfolgt die Präsentation der Untersuchungsergebnisse in den Kategorien Bild Text und Video. Aus der Analyse geht hervor, dass sowohl das kommunikative als auch das performative Potential Sozialer Online Medien zwar von Theaterinstitutionen erkannt und genutzt, die mögliche Wirkungsfähigkeit einer interaktiven Netzwerkkommunikation für das Generieren von Aufmerksamkeit für Kulturbetriebe wie Theater, noch nicht ganzheitlich beansprucht wird.

description: This study involved two experiments which attempted to measure the productivity level of working on a spreadsheet which can display more than 80 characters. The gain in the number of rows and columns in other display modes was achieved by shrinking the size of the display characters which resulted in a decrease in display resolution. The result from the first experiment did not show any significant difference between presentation modes. The second experiment however, indicated that there was a significant difference in performance time and accuracy between the presentation modes. Results obtained also revealed that differences also occurred between working on-screen and working off-screen. It appears that the Lotus default mode yielded the best productivity in this experiment, both in the on-screen and off-screen task. Preference wise, the majority of subjects preferred having good resolution to having more information on display at one time.

description: Semi-autonomous machines, autonomous machines and robots inhabit closed, semi-closed and open environments, more structured environments like the household or more unstructured environments like cultural landscapes or the wilderness. There they encounter domestic animals, farm animals, working animals, and wild animals. These creatures could be disturbed, displaced, injured, or killed by the ma-chines. Within the context of machine ethics and social robotics, the School of Business FHNW developed several de-sign studies and prototypes for animal-friendly machines, which can be understood as moral and social machines in the spirit of these disciplines. In 2019-20, a team led by the main author developed a prototype robot lawnmower that can recognize hedgehogs, interrupt its work for them and thus pro-tect them. Every year many of these animals die worldwide because of traditional service robots. HAPPY HEDGEHOG (HHH), as the invention is called, could be a solution to this problem. This article begins by providing an introduction to the background. Then it focuses on navigation (where the machine comes across certain objects that need to be recognized) and thermal and image recognition (with the help of machine learning) of the machine. It also presents obvious weaknesses and possible improvements. The results could be relevant for an industry that wants to market their products as animal-friendly machines.
Effect of large character size on productivity of the elderly in a character detection task

description: In this study, a comparison has been made between the effect of two different character sizes on a character detection task: the normal size of 4 millimeters and a larger one of 8 millimeters. It was hypothesized that due to the normal decline of vision with age, elderly workers using video display terminals could improve their productivity if they used a larger character size on the computer screen. Thirty unpaid subjects volunteered to participate in the experiment. The comparison measured the subjects' average speed, accuracy, and error under both conditions. These paired responses were then analyzed by computing their differences. The results obtained show that there was no significant difference between the normal character size and the large character size for speed and accuracy. However, there was a significant increase in the number of false hits when the normal character size was used. Character size is an important consideration when using computer screens. The results of this study suggest that more research is needed on human factors involved in character size design for the elderly population.

description: Da Kinder und Jugendliche in vielen Gesellschaften als “Noch-nicht”-BürgerInnen gesehen werden, werden deren entsprechende Kompetenzen und Fähigkeiten in gesellschaftspolitischer Hinsicht oft unterschätzt oder ignoriert. Auch in Tansania ist es nach Angaben meiner GesprächspartnerInnen nicht einfach für Kinder und Jugendliche, ihre Meinungen zu äußern und selbstständig Entscheidungen zu treffen. Ich möchte in dieser Arbeit eine Methode vorstellen, die es Kindern und Jugendlichen in Dar es Salaam ermöglicht, eine zentralere und respektierte Stellung in der tansanischen Gesellschaft einzunehmen. Die Theatermethoden der Kinder- und Jugendgruppen, die ich in Dar es Salaam zu meinem Forschungsgegenstand machte, stellen eine Möglichkeit dar, in insbesondere gesellschaftlichen Prozessen zu partizipieren. Diese Art von Partizipation bedeutet Empowerment, welches dem jungen Teil der tansanischen Gesellschaft die Chance gibt, dessen sozialen Realitäten selbst zu entwerfen. Dadurch, dass ältere und „mächtigere“ Mitglieder der tansanischen Gesellschaft und auch Politik sensibilisiert werden auf die Angelegenheiten, Probleme, aber auch Kompetenzen „ihrer“ Kinder und Jugendlichen, kann deren Einstellung geändert werden. Theatergruppen können Kindern und Jugendlichen einen Raum geben, sich künstlerisch gegen Armut und Unterdrückung zu wehren, indem Meinungen geäußert werden und in Folge Verbesserungsvorschläge gemeinsam mit anderen Gesellschaftsmitgliedern für die Realität geprobt werden. In dieser Arbeit wird anfangs die hier relevante Theorie erörtert, wobei zuerst Partizipation beleuchtet wird, um daraufhin Empowerment in der hier wesentlichen Hinsicht darzulegen. Weiters ist Paulo Freires Gedankengut in dessen Pädagogik der Unterdrückten von Interesse und wird in Zusammenhang mit Augusto Boals Theater der Unterdrückten eingeführt. Im nächsten Kapitel werden meine methodischen Vorgangsweisen dargestellt, wobei neben Datenerhebung, deren Analyse und der methodischen Reflexion auch Hintergründe und Kontexte meiner Forschung von Bedeutung sind. Im Hauptteil dieser Arbeit werden die von mir erforschten Theatermethoden an sich analysiert, woraufhin die Inhalte und Kontexte der Theaterstücke diskutiert werden und letztlich die Rezeption dieser Theatermethoden thematisiert wird.

Influential factors in the design and implementation of electronic
      assessment at a research-led university
Creators: name: Alston, Peter
Publisher: name: Lancaster University
Year: 2017

description: Of the many challenges faced by those in higher education (HE), with the
      use of technology to support teaching, learning and assessment activities
      being particularly prominent in recent years. Adopting a critical realist
      perspective, and drawing upon institutional ethnography and social
      practice theory, this thesis set out to examine how academic and
      professional services staff at a pre-1992, research-led university engaged
      with electronic assessment (e-assessment), and the extent to which the
      structures and formal policies impacted on design and implementation. Data
      were collected through a review of institutional documentation and
      face-to-face interviews with 23 participants, which were then analysed
      using the Framework method.

      The findings suggest that institutional priorities not only have a direct
      impact on the culture of the institution, but also the visibility and
      importance of e-assessment. In turn, those who are engaged with
      e-assessment are actively engaged in workarounds in their practice, as
      they negotiate institutional structures and formal policies. Whilst
      external factors have contributed to the visibility and desire for
      adopting e-assessment, successful engagement by academics is largely
      dependent on the reliability of the institution’s technological
      infrastructure and leadership at the local level, to support the
      operational aspects of delivery and more crucially, the enactment of
      institutional policies in disciplinary contexts. The findings also
      indicate that whilst institutional communities of practice are a valuable
      resource for sharing best practice, there is still a disconnect between
      academics and professional services staff with regards to what
      e-assessment entails, as to whether it is a process, a method, or a tool.
      Future efforts should focus on developing a shared vocabulary and
      recognition that e-assessment practice exhibits characteristics of the
      “third space” between academics and professional services staff,
      encouraging a reflection of the key roles that each plays in the design
      and implementation of e-assessment.

The New Legitimacy Challenges of Adjudication at the Inter-American Human Rights System in the Context of Latin American Democracies

subject: International and comparative law

description: As its title indicates, this work analyses the critiques labeled against the Inter-American Human Rights System by several Latin American countries in the context of the recent Process of Strengthening that took place within the Organization of American States (OAS) between 2012 and 2103.These critiques that came from governments of diverse political spectrum coincided in the alleged deficit of democratic accountability of both the Court and the Commission's adjudicatory processes, and the pretended ideological bias of its rulings in favor of local and international economic elites. The Dissertation begins with the review of the political and historical context in which the regional human rights agencies developed, in order to understand its difficult consolidation and the evolution of the motivations that both authoritarian and democratic governments have had in order to intend limiting the System's influence over their domestic affairs. This analysis will lead to the recent crisis and the unsolved underlying tension between a pro-majoritarian and proceduralist conception of democratic legitimacy and the limit to this popularly elected authority through the adjudication of human rights by international courts. The study of the counter majoritarian allegations against judicial review and international adjudication will stress the connection between a procedural-based argument for questioning the democratic legitimacy of human rights adjudication by a non-popularly elected organ, such as the Commission and Court, and an outcome-related argument that links the lack of popular accountability with legitimacy concerns regarding the social consequences of those decisions, as the members of these human rights organizations would be intrinsically vulnerable to capture by elite interest groups. Departing from the traditional analysis of jurisprudence through the selection of relevant cases, this Dissertation will perform a systematic review of the Commission and Court's rulings throughout its history. The resulting data regarding the social background of the victims who have resorted to the Inter-American System seeking the justice denied at the local level, will demonstrate that the elitist bias indictment against the OAS human rights agencies is false. This exercise will prevent further undermining of the regional agencies legitimacy, strengthening their role in the protection of human rights in the context of Latin American constitutional democracies.
title: Die Sozialpolitik Argentiniens
Creators: name: Merhaut, Nina Maria
Year: 2014

description: Gegenstand der vorliegenden Arbeit ist die Sozialpolitik Argentiniens mit einem Schwerpunkt auf sozialpolitische Pläne und Programme nach 2003. Untersucht wird die Rolle von Arbeit und Sozialwirtschaft vor und nach der Krise 2001/02, um die Auswirkungen der Krise und dadurch entstandene Veränderungen in der Sozialpolitik herauszuarbeiten. In der sozialpolitischen Geschichte Argentiniens sind zwei Phasen von Bedeutung: die Periode Juan Peróns und die Dekade der 1990er Jahre. Unter Perón wurde der argentinische Wohlfahrtsstaat um die 1950er Jahre ausgebaut, in den 1970er Jahren fand ein Umbruch statt, der sich in den 1990er Jahre mit der Einführung des neoliberalen Modells niederschlug. Nach der Wirtschafts- und Finanzkrise 2001/02 fand eine Abkehr vom bisherigen politischen Diskurs statt. Daher untersucht diese Diplomarbeit anhand des Faktors Arbeit - im Sinne von Beschäftigung und der Rolle von Arbeit in sozialen Politiken - ob und welche Auswirkungen die Krise auf die Sozialpolitik hatte. In Anlehnung an Esping- Andersens Theorie des Wohlfahrtsstaates werden dahingehend die Form der öffentlichen Sozialpolitik und potenzielle Veränderungen dieser, anhand der Art der Interventionen und verwendeten Programme des Staates diskutiert, und die Fragen nach der Loslösung der Individuen vom Markt und nach einer Umverteilung oder auch der sozialen Mobilität gestellt.
description: The item of the present diploma thesis is the social policy of Argentina with a focus on socio-political plans and programs since 2003. The role of labour and social economy before and after the crisis of 2001/02 is to be examined, to elaborate the impacts of the crisis and the thereby emerging institutional transformations of social policy. In the socio-political history of Argentina two periods are of importance: the era of Juan Perón and the decade of the 1990s. During the presidency of Perón in the 1950s an expansion of the Argentinian welfare state took place. The 1970s witnessed a situation of change that was reflected in the implementation of the economic model of neoliberalism in the 1990s. After the economic and financial crisis of 2001/02 the political discourse changed, resulting in a shift away from previous policies. Therefore, this thesis examines on the basis of labour – understood as employment and regarding the role of labour in social policy - if and what kind of impacts the crisis had on social policy. To that effect and following Esping-Andersens theory of the welfare state, the nature of Argentinian welfare policy and its potential changes are to be discussed by means of the specific kinds of public interventions and programmes used by the state. Key questions are the disentanglement of the individuals from the market and the question of redistribution of wealth.

description: Current policy initiatives taken by the EU and the OECD aim at abolishing preferential corporate tax regimes. This note extends Keen's (2001) analysis of symmetric capital tax competition under preferential (or discriminatory) and non-discriminatory tax regimes to allow for countries of different size. Even though size asymmetries imply a redistribution of tax revenue from the larger to the smaller country, a non-discrimination policy is found to have similar effects as in the symmetric model: it lowers the average rate of capital taxation and thus makes tax competition more aggressive in both the large and the small country.
