Agility is considered the silver bullet for survival in the VUCA world. However, many organisations are afraid of endangering their ISO 9001 certificate when introducing agile processes. A joint research project of the University of Applied Sciences and Arts Hannover and the DGQ has set itself the goal of providing more security in this area. The findings were based on interviews with managers and team members from various organisations of different sizes and industries working in an agile manner as well as on common audit practices and a literature analysis. The outcome presents a clear distinction of agility from flexibility as well as useful guidelines for the integration of agile processes in QM systems - for QM practitioners and auditors alike.
Der Bachelor-Studiengang Mediendesigninformatik der Hochschule Hannover ist ein Informatikstudiengang mit dem speziellen Anwendungsgebiet Mediendesign. In Abgrenzung von Studiengängen der Medieninformatik liegt der Anwendungsfokus auf der kreativen Gestaltung etwa von 3D-Modellierungen, Animationen und Computerspielen. Absolvent*innen des Studiengangs sollen an der Schnittstelle zwischen Informatik und Mediendesign agieren können, zum Beispiel bei der Erstellung von Benutzungsschnittstellen und VR/AR-Anwendungen. Der Artikel stellt das Curriculum des interdisziplinären Studiengangs vor und reflektiert nach dem Abschluss der ersten beiden Studierendenkohorten die Erfahrungen, indem die ursprünglichen Ziele den Zahlen der Hochschulstatistik und den Ergebnissen zweier Studierendenbefragungen gegenübergestellt werden.
Intrusion detection systems and other network security components detect security-relevant events based on policies consisting of rules. If an event turns out as a false alarm, the corresponding policy has to be adjusted in order to reduce the number of false positives. Modified policies, however, need to be tested before going into productive use. We present a visual analysis tool for the evaluation of security events and related policies which integrates data from different sources using the IF-MAP specification and provides a “what-if” simulation for testing modified policies on past network dynamics. In this paper, we will describe the design and outcome of a user study that will help us to evaluate our visual analysis tool.
For anomaly-based intrusion detection in computer networks, data cubes can be used for building a model of the normal behavior of each cell. During inference an anomaly score is calculated based on the deviation of cell metrics from the corresponding normality model. A visualization approach is shown that combines different types of diagrams and charts with linked user interaction for filtering of data.
Hadoop is a Java-based open source programming framework, which supports the processing and storage of large volumes of data sets in a distributed computing environment. On the other hand, an overwhelming majority of organizations are moving their big data processing and storing to the cloud to take advantage of cost reduction – the cloud eliminates the need for investing heavily in infrastructures, which may or may not be used by organizations. This paper shows how organizations can alleviate some of the obstacles faced when trying to make Hadoop run in the cloud.
Our work is motivated primarily by the lack of standardization in the area of Event Processing Network (EPN) models. We identify general requirements for such models. These requirements encompass the possibility to describe events in the real world, to establish temporal and causal relationships among the events, to aggregate the events, to organize the events into a hierarchy, to categorize the events into simple or complex, to create an EPN model in an easy and simple way and to use that model ad hoc. As the major contribution, this paper applies the identified requirements to the RuleCore model.
With an increasing complexity and scale, sufficient evaluation of Information Systems (IS) becomes a challenging and difficult task. Simulation modeling has proven as suitable and efficient methodology for evaluating IS and IS artifacts, presupposed it meets certain quality demands. However, existing research on simulation modeling quality solely focuses on quality in terms of accuracy and credibility, disregarding the role of additional quality aspects. Therefore, this paper proposes two design artifacts in order to ensure a holistic quality view on simulation quality. First, associated literature is reviewed in order to extract relevant quality factors in the context of simulation modeling, which can be used to evaluate the overall quality of a simulated solution before, during or after a given project. Secondly, the deduced quality factors are integrated in a quality assessment framework to provide structural guidance on the quality assessment procedure for simulation. In line with a Design Science Research (DSR) approach, we demonstrate the eligibility of both design artifacts by means of prototyping as well as an example case. Moreover, the assessment framework is evaluated and iteratively adjusted with the help of expert feedback.
Complex Event Processing (CEP) has been established as a well-suited software technology for processing high-frequent data streams. However, intelligent stream based systems must integrate stream data with semantical background knowledge. In this work, we investigate different approaches on integrating stream data and semantic domain knowledge. In particular, we discuss from a software engineering per- spective two different architectures: an approach adding an ontology access mechanism to a common Continuous Query Language (CQL) is compared with C-SPARQL, a streaming extension of the RDF query language SPARQL.
Smart Cities require reliable means for managing installations that offer essential services to the citizens. In this paper we focus on the problem of evacuation of smart buildings in case of emergencies. In particular, we present an abstract architecture for situation-aware evacuation guidance systems in smart buildings, describe its key modules in detail, and provide some concrete examples of its structure and dynamics.
Die Weltwirtschaftskrise des Jahres 1929 beendete ein „goldenes Zeitalter“. Sie veränderte nachhaltig die internationale Völkergemeinschaft, unter anderem in Bezug auf den Welthandel, die Finanzströme und die Arbeitslosigkeit. Die Auswirkungen unserer heutigen Krise scheinen vergleichbar, die Ausgangslage, Ursachen und Verantwortung sind jedoch grundverschieden.<br /> Kein Lehrbuch und keine Vorlesung haben uns auf diese Krisenform vorbereitet. Auch liegen keine wirtschaftspolitischen Erfahrungen vor, die als Grundlage zur Bewältigung einer Krise in dieser Dimension dienen könnten. Aber wir können– obgleich die Krise andauert – schon heute beobachten, dass die Konsequenzen anders ausfallen und zu langfristigen, einschneidenden Veränderungen führen.<br /> Mit unserer Fachveranstaltung bieten wir Erklärungsansätze und diskutieren über Verantwortung und Konsequenzen. Drei Beiträge führen aus unterschiedlichen Perspektiven in das Thema ein.
Microservices build a deeply distributed system. Although this offers significant flexibility for development teams and helps to find solutions for scalability or security questions, it also intensifies the drawbacks of a distributed system. This article offers a decision framework, which helps to increase the resiliency of microservices. A metamodel is used to represent services, resiliency patterns, and quality attributes. Furthermore, the general idea for a suggestion procedure is outlined.
In diesem Artikel wird die strategische Vorausschau als eine Methode der Zukunftsforschung vorgestellt. Die entwickelten Szenarien können Entscheidern helfen, besser auf zukünftige Entwicklungen vorbereitet zu sein. Die GIL könnte eine Plattform sein, um Trends in der Landwirtschaft und Agrarinformatik zu identifizieren.
Die Forderungen, auch nicht personenbezogene Daten besser zu schützen, nehmen zu. Dies gilt auch für die Landwirtschaft. Landwirte fordern selbstbewusst „Meine Daten gehören mir“ und wollen für die Bereitstellung ihrer Betriebsdaten angemessen entlohnt werden. Es spricht aber einiges dafür, dass die meisten der erhobenen Daten kaum einen ökonomischen Wert aufweisen. In diesem Artikel wird systematisch untersucht, welche Arten von Daten es gibt und welchen Marktwert sie vermutlich haben. Da Daten digitale Güter sind, gelten für sie dieselben Besonderheiten wie für sonstigen digitalen Content, wie einfache Kopier- und Veränderbarkeit. Die Analyse kommt zu dem Schluss, dass die meisten Daten in der Landwirtschaft vermutlich nur einen geringen Wert aufweisen, der eine Vermarktung, aber auch einen aufwendigen juristischen Schutz nicht rechtfertigt. Erst durch Datenaggregation und geschickte Auswertung dieser Rohdaten werden quasi in einer Veredelungsstufe nützliche Informationen erzeugt. Vermutlich wäre es aber am besten, möglichst viele Daten öffentlich zugänglich zu halten, sodass Werte durch innovative Geschäftsmodelle geschaffen werden, die auf diesen öffentlichen Daten aufbauen.
Digitale Marktplätze können die Kosten einer Handelstransaktion, die sog. Transaktionskosten, senken. Durch weiteren technischen Fortschritt und intelligente Handelsbots wird die Nutzung des Marktmechanismus immer kostengünstiger. Dieser Artikel gibt einen Überblick über die bisherige Entwicklung von Digitalen Marktplätzen der Agrar- und Ernährungswirtschaft und eine mögliche Zukunft. Vermutlich werden die Transaktionskosten weiter fallen, sodass weitere Effizienzgewinne durch die vermehrte Nutzung von Märkten möglich sein werden.
Veränderungen der Rechtsberufe durch neue Technologien - Beispiel: Wissensmanagement bei Anwälten
(2002)
Wissensmanagement ist eines der aktuellen Themen in Theorie und Praxis und wird in vielen verschiedenen Fachgebieten aufgegriffen. Für Anwälte wird die Berufsausübung derzeit durch mehrere verschiedene Entwicklungen geprägt – und zukünftig noch stärker geprägt werden - die zu einer anspruchsvollen Situation voller Herausforderungen führen. Viele der Entwicklungen haben unmittelbaren Bezug zu dem Umgang mit dem Wissen der Mitarbeiter und der Kanzlei und führen so zum Thema "Wissensmanagement bei Anwälten".
Aim/Purpose: We explore impressions and experiences of Information Systems graduates during their first years of employment in the IT field. The results help to understand work satisfaction, career ambition, and motivation of junior employees. This way, the attractiveness of working in the field of IS can be increased and the shortage of junior employees reduced.
Background: Currently IT professions are characterized by terms such as “shortage of professionals” and “shortage of junior employees”. To attract more people to work in IT detailed knowledge about experiences of junior employees is necessary.
Methodology: Data from a large survey of 193 graduates of the degree program “Information Systems” at University of Applied Sciences and Arts Hannover (Germany) show characteristics of their professional life like work satisfaction, motivation, career ambition, satisfaction with opportunities, development and career advancement, satisfaction with work-life balance. It is also asked whether men and women gain the same experiences when entering the job market and have the same perceptions.
Findings: The participants were highly satisfied with their work, but limitations or restrictions due to gender are noteworthy.
Recommendations for Practitioners: The results provide information on how human resource policies can make IT professions more attractive and thus convince graduates to seek jobs in the field. For instance, improving the balance between work and various areas of private life seems promising. Also, restrictions with respect to the work climate and improving communication along several dimensions need to be considered.
Future Research: More detailed research on ambition and achievement is necessary to understand gender differences.
BYOD Bring Your Own Device
(2013)
Using modern devices like smartphones and tablets offers a wide variety of advantages; this has made them very popular as consumer devices in private life. Using them in the workplace is also popular. However, who wants to carry around and handle two devices; one for personal use, and one for work-related tasks? That is why “dual use”, using one single device for private and business applications, may represent a proper solution. The result is “Bring Your Own Device,” or BYOD, which describes the circumstance in which users make their own personal devices available for company use. For companies, this brings some opportunities and risks. We describe and discuss organizational issues, technical approaches, and solutions.
Nowadays, smartphones and sensor devices can provide a variety of information about a user’s current situation. So far, many recommender systems neglect this kind of information and thus cannot provide situationspecific recommendations. Situation-aware recommender systems adapt to changes in the user’s environment and therefore are able to offer recommendations that are more appropriate for the current situation. In this paper, we present a software architecture that enables situation awareness for arbitrary recommendation techniques. The proposed system considers both (semi-)static user profiles and volatile situational knowledge to obtain meaningful recommendations. Furthermore, the implementation of the architecture in a museum of natural history is presented, which uses Complex Event Processing to achieve situation awareness.
