description: Die Integration in die Arbeitswelt ist für Jugendliche aus Sonderschulen eine grosse Herausforderung. Die direkte Praxisbegegnung in Schnupperlehren bietet ihnen jedoch eine Chance zum Berufseinstieg. Diese Forschungsarbeit untersucht, wie der handwerkliche Unterricht in Sonderschulen diesen Prozess der Berufswahl unterstützen kann. Zur Exploration des Forschungsgegenstands werden die Jugendlichen mittels Fragebogen befragt, welche Kompetenzen im handwerklichen Unterricht gefördert – und in den Schnupperlehren gefordert werden. Nachfolgend konkretisieren Werklehrer und Lehrmeister in Interviews relevante Kompetenzen in ihren jeweiligen Erfahrungsbereichen. Alle Befragten beurteilen die Selbst- und Sozialkompetenzen jeweils wichtiger als die Fachkompetenzen. Unsere Ergebnisse zeigen, dass der handwerkliche Unterricht Wesentliches zur Förderung relevanter Kompetenzen zu einem erfolgreichen Berufseinstieg beitragen kann.

Global in Time Classical Solutions to the 3D Quasi-geostrophic System for Large Initial Data
Creators: name: Novack, Matthew D.
name: Vasseur, Alexis F.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2016
Subjects: subject: Analysis of PDEs (math.AP)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: In this paper, the authors show the existence of global in time classical solutions to the 3D quasi-geostrophic system with Ekman pumping for any smooth initial value (possibly large). This system couples an inviscid transport equation in $\mathbb{R}^3_+$ with an equation on the boundary satisfied by the trace. The proof combines the De Giorgi regularization effect on the boundary $z=0$ -similar to the so called surface quasi-geostrophic equation- with Beale-Kato-Majda techniques to propagate regularity for $z>0$. A potential theory argument is used to strengthen the regularization effect on the trace up to the Besov space $\mathring{B}_{\infty,\infty}^1$.

description: The background field method is used to linearize the Weyl invariant scalar-tensor gravity, coupled with a Stueckelberg field. For a generic background metric, this action is found to be not invariant, under both diffeomorphism and generalized Weyl symmetry, the latter being a combination of gauge and Weyl transformations. Interestingly, the quadratic Lagrangian, emerging from a background of Minkowski metric, respects both the transformations, independently. Becchi-Rouet-Stora-Tyutin (BRST) symmetry of scalar-tensor gravity coupled with a Stueckelberg-like massive gauge particle, possessing diffeomorphism and generalized Weyl symmetry, reveals that in both the cases, negative norm states with unphysical degrees of freedom do exist. We then show that, by combining diffeomorphism and generalized Weyl symmetries, all the ghost states decouple, thereby removing the unphysical redundancies of the theory. During this process, the scalar field does not represent any dynamic mode, yet modifies the usual harmonic gauge condition through non-minimal coupling with gravity.

description: This report is the final outcome of FAMILYPLATFORM and the result of the encounter between more than 170 experts and stakeholders from all over Europe and beyond, creating a lively think tank on family issues. It summarises important policy questions, research gaps and research issues that were highlighted during the 18 months of working together closely within FAMILYPLATFORM. A series of societal challenges for families, family‐related policy and research have been identified through the work of FAMILYPLATFORM. Based on these crucial societal challenges, seven important research areas are outlined in this report: 1. Family Policy, 2. Care, 3. Life Course and Transitions, 4. Doing Family, 5. Migration and Mobility, 6. Inequalities and Insecurities, 7. Media and New Information Technologies. In each research area vital research questions are identified, combined with general remarks on methodological issues and approaches. Altogether, these challenges, research areas and methodological issues are building a research roadmap for the European Union for the years ahead. The realisation of this research roadmap could help policy makers to meet future societal challenges and to improve the wellbeing of families.

description: Computer simulations are used widely across the engineering and science disciplines, including in the research and development of magnetic devices using computational micromagnetics. In this work, we identify and review different approaches to configuring simulation runs: (i) the re-compilation of source code, (ii) the use of configuration files, (iii) the graphical user interface, and (iv) embedding the simulation specification in an existing programming language to express the computational problem. We identify the advantages and disadvantages of different approaches and discuss their implications on effectiveness and reproducibility of computational studies and results. Following on from this, we design and describe a domain specific language for micromagnetics that is embedded in the Python language, and allows users to define the micromagnetic simulations they want to carry out in a flexible way. We have implemented this micromagnetic simulation description language together with a computational backend that executes the simulation task using the Object Oriented MicroMagnetic Framework (OOMMF). We illustrate the use of this Python interface for OOMMF by solving the micromagnetic standard problem 4. All the code is publicly available and is open source.

subject: Cybersecurity and privacy not elsewhere classified

description: The proliferation of Internet of Things (IoT) devices and applications is on the rise, resulting in an increase in both the quantity and complexity of malicious attacks. It is imperative to establish robust security measures for IoT networks to counteract malicious attacks, particularly with the aim of preventing unauthorized control over these devices. While numerous security solutions for IoT have been proposed in recent years, a significant portion of them lacks standardization and interoperability. As the IoT landscape continues to expand, the diversity and intricacy of IoT applications also grow, rendering such networks susceptible to attacks aimed at data theft, device takeover, and service disruption. A multitude of protocols and networking frameworks have been developed for IoT, with some achieving standardization and facilitating interoperability among devices and internet connectivity. These protocols have received endorsement from prominent standardization bodies such as IETF, IEEE, and industry consortia like the Rawan coalition and thread group. This paper's objective is to present a model that establishes secure communication channels among IoT devices as well as between these devices and a server or router, accomplished through the implementation of encryption algorithms. The popularity of smart home IoT systems is increasing due to their efficiency in simplifying various tasks. However, this trend also introduces vulnerabilities in terms of user privacy. Safeguarding the privacy of personal data remains a paramount concern for electronic services. To address this challenge, we employ well-established encryption algorithms such as RSA to create and utilize secure communication channels through Socket Programming for IoT devices.

description: We introduce $\mathcal{B}_κ$-embeddings, nonlinear mathematical structures that connect, through smooth paths parameterized by $κ$, a finite or denumerable set of objects at $κ=0$ (e.g. numbers, functions, vectors, coefficients of a generating function...) to their ordinary sum at $κ\to \infty$. We show that $\mathcal{B}_κ$-embeddings can be used to design nonlinear irreversible processes through this connection. A number of examples of increasing complexity are worked out to illustrate the possibilities uncovered by this concept. These include not only smooth functions but also fractals on the real line and on the complex plane. As an application, we use $\mathcal{B}_κ$-embeddings to formulate a robust method for finding all roots of a univariate polynomial without factorizing or deflating the polynomial. We illustrate this method by finding all roots of a polynomial of 19th degree.

description: Modern discriminative predictors have been shown to match natural intelligences in specific perceptual tasks in image classification, object and part detection, boundary extraction, etc. However, a major advantage that natural intelligences still have is that they work well for "all" perceptual problems together, solving them efficiently and coherently in an "integrated manner". In order to capture some of these advantages in machine perception, we ask two questions: whether deep neural networks can learn universal image representations, useful not only for a single task but for all of them, and how the solutions to the different tasks can be integrated in this framework. We answer by proposing a new architecture, which we call "MultiNet", in which not only deep image features are shared between tasks, but where tasks can interact in a recurrent manner by encoding the results of their analysis in a common shared representation of the data. In this manner, we show that the performance of individual tasks in standard benchmarks can be improved first by sharing features between them and then, more significantly, by integrating their solutions in the common representation.

description: This paper presents a multi-scale approach to predict the effective hygro-mechanical behaviour of paper sheets based on the properties of the underlying fibrous network. Despite the vast amount of literature on paper hygro-expansion, the functional dependence of the effective material properties on the micro-structural features remains yet unclear. In this work, a micro-structural model of the paper fibrous network is first developed by random deposition of the fibres within a planar region according to an orientation probability density function. Asymptotic homogenization is used to determine its effective properties numerically. Alternatively, two much more idealized micro-structural models are considered, one based on a periodic lattice structure with a regular network of perpendicular fibres and one based on the Voigt average. Despite their simplicity, they reproduce representative micro-structural features, such as the orientation anisotropy and network level hygro-elastic properties. These alternative models can be solved analytically, providing closed-form expressions that explicitly reveal the influence of the individual micro-scale parameters on the effective hygro-mechanical response. The trend predicted by the random network model is captured reasonably well by the two idealized models. The resulting hygro-mechanical properties are finally compared with experimental data reported in the literature, revealing an adequate quantitative agreement.

A Direct Measurement of the High-Mass End of the Velocity Dispersion Function at $z\sim0.55$ from SDSS-III/BOSS

description: We report the first direct spectroscopic measurement of the velocity dispersion function (VDF) for the high-mass red sequence (RS) galaxy population at redshift $z\sim0.55$. We achieve high precision by using a sample of 600,000 massive galaxies with spectra from the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS) of the third Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS-III), covering stellar masses $M_*\gtrsim10^{11}~M_{\odot}$. We determine the VDF by projecting the joint probability-density function (PDF) of luminosity $L$ and velocity dispersion $σ$, i.e. $p(L,σ)$, defined by our previous measurements of the RS luminosity function and $L-σ$ relation for this sample. These measurements were corrected from red--blue galaxy population confusion, photometric blurring, incompleteness and selection effects within a forward-modeling framework that furthermore correctly accommodates the low spectroscopic signal-to-noise ratio of individual BOSS spectra. Our $z\sim0.55$ RS VDF is in overall agreement with the $z\sim0$ early-type galaxy (ETG) VDF at $\log_{10}σ\gtrsim2.47$, however the number density of $z=0.55$ RS galaxies that we report is larger than that of $z=0$ ETG galaxies at $2.35\gtrsim\log_{10}σ\gtrsim 2.47$. The extrapolation of an intermediate-mass L-$σ$ relation towards the high-mass end in previous low-z works may be responsible for this disagreement. Evolutionary interpretation of this comparison is also subject to differences in the way the respective samples are selected; these differences can be mitigated in future work by analyzing $z=0$ SDSS data using the same framework presented in this paper. We also provide the sample PDF for the RS population (i.e. uncorrected for incompleteness), which is a key ingredient for gravitational lensing analyses using BOSS.

description: It was reported that Kerr-Newman black holes can support linear charged scalar fields in their exterior regions. These stationary massive charged scalar fields can form bound states, which are called stationary scalar clouds. In this paper, we show that Kerr-Sen black holes can also support stationary massive charged scalar clouds by matching the near- and far-region solutions of the radial part of the Klein-Gordon wave equation. We also review stationary scalar clouds within the background of static electrically charged black hole solutions in the low-energy limit of heterotic string field theory, namely, the Gibbons-Maeda-Garfinkle-Horowitz-Strominger black holes.

description: A growth experiment was performed with different accessions of the novel bioenergy species Sida hermaphrodita Rusby (Fanpetals, Malvaceae) and Silphium perfoliatum L. (Cup Plant, Asteraceae) to study differences between the perennial shrubs and the variation among biotypes. Non-destructive assessments (phenology, leaf numbers, height, SPAD and gas exchange) and several harvests were conducted to examine growth, allometry and the quality of shoot material (C:N, raw ash, protein, fibre, fat, calorific value and leafδ13C). In addition to the functional analyses, epidermal structures of two widely used accessions were addressed to give insight into anatomical properties of the species. In the establishment phase, productivity was higher on average in S. hermaphrodita than in S. perfoliatum since latter remains in the rosette stage in the first year. While the accessions of S. hermaphrodita did not significantly differ in growth, functional traits and forage quality, S. perfoliatum showed large biotypic variation. Leaf water and ash contents, raw protein and fat levels were higher in latter species, while raw fibre contentswere twice as highin S. hermaphrodita. At the end of the season, the calorific value of senesced stems of S. hermaphrodita proved to be higher than that of senesced leaves of S. perfoliatum pointing to its suitability of as a solid fuel. Despite the shorter longevity, lower SPAD and smaller size, the delicate leaves of S. hermaphrodita had more stomata, higher photosynthetic rates and higher stomatal conductances than the robust leaves of S. perfoliatum. Less negative δ13C signatures in S. perfoliatum (-27.3 ‰) compared to S. hermaphrodita (-30.24 ‰), point to the potentially higher water use efficiency of S. perfoliatum. Further investigations on the relationships between leaf properties, carbon acquisition and stomatal conductance under dry conditions may serve to select productive lines of the bioenergy species on marginal land thus avoiding conflicts with the farming of food crops.

description: Today competition is getting intense than before. So that companies need to start paying special attention to their service quality, competitors, development of new technological aspects ever after. Companies should constantly anticipate the customers unlimited needs and expectations and try to address the gap. The aim of this study is to assess customers' satisfaction and the service quality of Commercial Bank of Ethiopia. And to give an insight for the management for areas of improvement. A total of 120 respondents who have used CBE's service were participated in the study from 10 branches. The data has been analyzed using descriptive statistics. From the analysis made, it is found that 80 percent of the respondents are satisfied with the service quality of the bank but still looking for improvement in the cashless banking system of CBE. The five SERVQUAL dimensions (empathy, reliability and assurance) showed good rating but tangibility and responsiveness was found to be the areas that need special attention of the bank management. The overall service quality perceived by the customers is good and need improvement. For the attainment of its vision be the leading company and benchmark in the market in which we operate with levels of profitability and creation of shareholders' value in line with the best industry benchmarks

description: We demonstrate that the cosmic microwave background (CMB) temperature-polarization cross-correlation provides accurate and robust constraints on cosmological parameters. We compare them with the results from temperature or polarization and investigate the impact of foregrounds, cosmic variance, and instrumental noise. This analysis makes use of the Planck high-multipole HiLLiPOP likelihood based on angular power spectra, which takes into account systematics from the instrument and foreground residuals directly modelled using Planck measurements. The temperature-polarization correlation (TE) spectrum is less contaminated by astrophysical emissions than the temperature power spectrum (TT), allowing constraints that are less sensitive to foreground uncertainties to be derived. For ΛCDM parameters, TE gives very competitive results compared to TT. For basic ΛCDM model extensions (such as AL, Σmν, or Neff ), it is still limited by the instrumental noise level in the polarization maps.

The narrative follows the life of Jörgen, whose noble Spanish parents perished on the Jutland reefs. His mother barely made it ashore where she gave birth to him with the last of her energy and life. We see Jörgen grow up happy and content with his life, despite the relative poverty he lives in with his adoptive family. There are often comparisons made between his life as a fisherman in the sand dunes of Denmark, and what his life might have been like as Spanish nobleman. Throughout the story there are significant events that take place and there is a wonderful cyclical structure to the story where certain locations or scenarios return but with an important change which reflects the development in the story. It is these important moments that I have focused on in this piece.

description: Der Frage, ob sich im Zusammenleben von Paaren, die verschiedene Positionen im sozialen Raum (Bourdieu) einnehmen, signifikante Unterschiede bei der geschlechtlichen Arbeitsteilung im Haushalt abzeichnen (und zwar sowohl bezüglich des Volumens an Haus- und Familienarbeit als auch der Bedeutung der männlichen Beteiligung an dieser), wird hier mit ersten Ergebnissen eines empirischen Forschungsprojekts zu "Klasse und Geschlecht" nachgegangen. Eingebettet wird das Thema sowohl in den Kontext sozialer Ungleichheit als auch in die Diskussion um die Neuverteilung von "Arbeit" zwischen den Geschlechtern.

Masterarbeit

description: Behörden-Dokumente ab ca. 1990 bis 2013 sind Quellen zur Darstellung von Entwicklungsschritten der schulischen Integration im Kanton Zürich. Erst schulten wenige Gemeinden integrativ. Darauf folgte ein Schulversuch mit integrativen Schulungsformen, bis schliesslich die heutige flächendeckende Integration eingeführt wurde. Als Ergänzung stehen weiterhin Sonderschulen zur Verfügung. Der Kanton Zürich hat zudem die Möglichkeit, Einrichtungen anderer Kantone zu nutzen. Sonderpädagogische Konzepte zur Integrativen Schulungsform ISF wurden im dargestellten Zeitraum erarbeitet aus Modellen, die für den Kanton Zürich neu waren. Später wurden eigene kantonale Konzepte erstellt mit Pflicht- und freiwilligen Angeboten. Aktuell stehen Überarbeitungen der Konzepte und ein Schulversuch mit weniger Bezugspersonen pro Klasse an.

description: The objective of this study was to investigate the practices and challenges of corruption in urban land governance in the case of Bole Sub-city Land Management Bureau of Addis Ababa City Administration. The study employed both quantitative and qualitative approach of data collection and analysis. Structured questionnaires and key informant interview guide were administered in data collection. 400 (Four Hundred) customers of the Bureau were sampled using simple random sampling technique. Whereas, non- random technique were used for selecting 8 key interviewees. Secondary data from annual report, performance reports, and different legislations were also used. Analysis was done using SPSS version .The findings characterizes the corruption within the Bureau as very deep rooted and challenging which evident from the greater portion of the respondents , the personal experience of corrupt act of their close persons, the greatest percentage of the respondents close person , the respondents believed that engineers of the Bureau were the most vulnerable to corruption, the greatest percentage of the respondent customers perceived the Bureau as the most corrupt bureau compared to other public service delivery offices within the sub-city. Corruption is so challenging within the sub city since the sub-city council is just a rubberstamp and not a true voice of the public which could not held the executive accountable. Empowering the sub city's council, making land laws accessible in a consolidated form , building strong institutional capacity of internal audit and undercover operation to detect the crime of corruption are the recommendations of this study.

description: Die Verwirklichung des europäischen Binnenmarktes setzt einen verstärkten Integrationsprozeß auf dem Gebiet der Arbeits- und Sozialrechtpolitik der EU-Mitgliedstaaten voraus. Zu den wichtigen sozialpolitischen Initiativen der Europäischen Union gehören in diesem Zusammenhang die Richtlinien zur Arbeitszeitgestaltung, über die Entsendung von Arbeitnehmern und zur Einrichtung Europäischer Betriebsräte. Als Instrument einer präventiven Arbeitsmarktpolitik spielt auch der Europäische Sozialfonds eine wichtige Rolle durch seine Beteiligung an den Kosten von Maßnahmen zur beruflichen Bildung, an Beihilfen zur Einstellung in neugeschaffene stabile Arbeitsplätze sowie an Maßnahmen zur Existenzgründung. Die Europäische Kommission hat ihre Vorstellungen in Bezug auf die wirtschaftspolitische Grundrichtung für eine gemeinschaftliche Anstrengung der Mitgliedstaaten und der Union in ihrem Weißbuch Wachstum, Wettbewerbsfähigkeit, Beschäftigung niedergelegt. Es werden darin Fragen zur Anpassung der Bildungssysteme, zur Umsetzung von Wachstum in Beschäftigung und zur Abgabenbelastung der Arbeit diskutiert.

Supersymmetric SYK models

description: We discuss a supersymmetric generalization of the Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev model. These are quantum mechanical models involving $N$ Majorana fermions. The supercharge is given by a polynomial expression in terms of the Majorana fermions with random coefficients. The Hamiltonian is the square of the supercharge. The ${\cal N}=1$ model with a single supercharge has unbroken supersymmetry at large $N$, but non-perturbatively spontaneously broken supersymmetry in the exact theory. We analyze the model by looking at the large $N$ equation, and also by performing numerical computations for small values of $N$. We also compute the large $N$ spectrum of "singlet" operators, where we find a structure qualitatively similar to the ordinary SYK model. We also discuss an ${\cal N}=2$ version. In this case, the model preserves supersymmetry in the exact theory and we can compute a suitably weighted Witten index to count the number of ground states, which agrees with the large $N$ computation of the entropy. In both cases, we discuss the supersymmetric generalizations of the Schwarzian action which give the dominant effects at low energies.

description: This three-year research project began in January 2014 and investigated whether, during the Victorian period, the professions formed a distinct self-sustaining social group with its own mores and values. The project looked at 16,000 individuals drawn from census data for Alnwick, Brighton, Bristol, Dundee, Greenock, Leeds, Merthyr Tydfil, Morpeth, and Winchester. The research project was funded by the UK Economic & Social Research Council and was based at the Universities of Oxford and Northumbria.

description: The local density approximation (LDA) constructed through quantum Monte Carlo calculations of the homogeneous electron gas (HEG) is the most common approximation to the exchange-correlation functional in density functional theory. We introduce an alternative set of LDAs constructed from slablike systems of one, two and three electrons that resemble the HEG within a finite region, and illustrate the concept in one dimension. Comparing with the exact densities and Kohn-Sham potentials for various test systems, we find that the LDAs give a good account of the self-interaction correction, but are less reliable when correlation is stronger or currents flow.

description: The decay of spin-valley states is studied in a suspended carbon nanotube double quantum dot via leakage current in Pauli blockade and via dephasing and decoherence of a qubit. From the magnetic field dependence of the leakage current, hyperfine and spin-orbit contributions to relaxation from blocked to unblocked states are identified and explained quantitatively by means of a simple model. The observed qubit dephasing rate is consistent with the hyperfine coupling strength extracted from this model and inconsistent with dephasing from charge noise. However, the qubit coherence time, although longer than previously achieved, is probably still limited by charge noise in the device.

Masterarbeit

description: Diese Masterarbeit befasst sich mit den Fragen: Wie soll Mathematik unterrichtet werden? Wie wird die Subtraktion vermittelt? Wie wird der Unterricht fördernd gestaltet? Die Person des Lehrers ist die wichtigste Variable für den Schulerfolg des Kindes. Von Interesse sind die Denkwege der Lehrpersonen und ihr Vorgehen bei der Unterrichtsplanung und –durchführung. So lässt sich feststellen, welches didaktische Wissen sie einsetzen, um ihre Schülerinnen und Schüler zu unterstützen.
 Die Umsetzung in der Praxis wurde anlässlich eines Workshops mit Lehrpersonen einer Schuleinheit und durch die Auswertung von Fragebogen erfasst. Ein Vergleich mit den Er-kenntnissen aus der Forschung gibt Hinweise zu möglichen schulinternen Weiterbildungsan-geboten im Bereich Mathematikdidaktik.
