This paper presents a lattice-based visual metaphor for knowledge discovery in electronic mail. It allows a user to navigate email using a visual lattice metaphor rather than a tree structure. By using such a conceptual multi-hierarchy, the content and shape of the lattice can be varied to accommodate any number of queries against the email collection. The system provides more flexibility in retrieving stored emails and can be generalised to any electronic documents. The paper presents the underlying mathematical structures, and a number of examples of the lattice and multi-hierarchy working with a prototypical email collection.

Bildbasierte Authentifizierung und Verschlüsselung: Identitätsbasierte Kryptographie (oft auch identity Based Encryption, IBE) ist eine Variation der asymmetrischen Schlüsselverfahren, bei der der öffentliche Schlüssel des Anwenders eine beliebig wählbare Zeichenfolge sein darf, die dem Besitzer offensichtlich zugeordnet werden kann. Adi Shamir stellte 1984 zunächst ein solches Signatursystem vor. In der Literatur wird dabei als öffentlicher Schlüssel meist die Email-Adresse oder eine Sozialversicherungsnummer genannt. Der Preis für die freie Schlüsselwahl ist die Einbeziehung eines vertrauenswürdigen Dritten, genannt Private Key Generator, der mit seinem privaten Generalschlüssel den privaten Schlüssel des Antragstellers generiert. Mit der Arbeit von Boneh und Franklin 2001 zum Einsatz der Weil-Paarbildung über elliptischen Kurven wurde IBE auf eine sichere und praktikable Grundlage gestellt. In dieser Arbeit wird nach einer allgemeinen Übersicht über Probleme und Lösungsmöglichkeiten für Authentifizierungsaufgaben im zweiten Teil als neue Idee der Einsatz eines Bildes des Anwenders als öffentlicher Schlüssel vorgeschlagen. Dazu wird der Ablauf der Schlüsselausgabe, die Bestellung einer Dienstleistung, z. B. die Ausstellung einer personengebundenen Fahrkarte, sowie deren Kontrolle dargestellt. Letztere kann offline auf dem Gerät des Kontrolleurs erfolgen, wobei Ticket und Bild auf dem Handy des Kunden bereitliegen. Insgesamt eröffnet sich dadurch die Möglichkeit einer Authentifizierung ohne weitere Preisgabe einer Identität, wenn man davon ausgeht, dass das Bild einer Person angesichts allgegenwärtiger Kameras sowieso öffentlich ist. Die Praktikabilität wird mit einer Implementierung auf der Basis des IBE-JCA Providers der National University of Ireland in Maynooth demonstriert und liefert auch Aufschluss auf das in der Praxis zu erwartende Laufzeitverhalten.

Abstract: This dissertation generally concentrates on the relationships between “gender” and “space” in the present time of urban life in capital city of Tehran. “Gender” as a changing social construct, differentiated within societies and through time, studied this time by investigation on “gender attitude” or “gender identity” means attitudes towards “gender” issues regarding Tehran residences. “Space” as a concept integrated from physical and social constituents investigated through focus on “spatial attitude” means attitudes towards using “living spaces” including private space of “house”, semi private semi public space of neighborhood and finally public spaces of the city. “Activities and practices” in space concentrated instead of “physical” space; this perspective to “space” discussed as the most justified implication of “space” in this debate regarding current situations in city of Tehran. Under a systematic approach, the interactions and interconnections between “gender” and “space” as two constituent variables of social organization investigated by focus on the different associations presented between different “gender identities” and their different “spatial identities”; in fact, “spatial identity” manifests “gender identity” and in opposite direction, “spatial identity” influences to construction of “gender identity”. The hypotheses of case study in Tehran defined as followed: • “Gender identity” is reflected on “spatial identity”. Various “gender identities” in Tehran present different perspectives of “space” or they identify “space” by different values. • As “gender identity” internalizes patriarchal oppression, it internalizes associated “spatial” oppression too. • Within the same social class, different “gender identities” related to men and women, present interconnected qualities, compared with “gender identities” related to men or women of different social classes. This situation could be found in the “spatial” perspectives of different groups of men and women too. • Following the upper hypotheses, “spatial” oppression differs among social classes of Tehran living in different parts of this city. This research undertook a qualitative study in Tehran by interviewing with different parents of both young daughter and son regarding their attitudes towards gender issues from one side and activities and behaviors of their children in different spaces from the other side. Results of case study indicated the parallel changes of parents’ attitudes towards “gender” and “spatial” issues; it means strong connection between “gender” and “space”. It revealed association of “equal” spatial attitudes with “open, neutral” gender attitudes, and also the association of “biased, unequal” spatial identities with “conservative patriarchal” gender identities. It was cleared too that this variable concept – gender space - changes by “sex”; mothers comparing fathers presented more equitable notions towards “gender spatial” issues. It changes too by “social class” and “educational level”, that means “gender spatial” identity getting more open equitable among more educated people of middle and upper classes. “Breadwinning status in the family” also presents its effect on the changes of “gender spatial” identity so participant breadwinners in the family expressed relatively more equitable notions comparing householders and housekeepers. And finally, “gender spatial” identity changes through “place” in the city and regarding South – North line of the city. The illustration of changes of “gender spatial” identity from “open” to “conservative” among society indicated not only vertical variation across social classes, furthermore the horizontal changing among each social class. These results also confirmed hypotheses while made precision on the third one regarding variable of sex. More investigations pointed to some inclusive spatial attitudes throughout society penetrated to different groups of “gender identities”, to “opens” as to “conservatives”, also to groups between them, by two opposite features; first kind, conservative biased spatial practices in favor of patriarchal gender relations and the second, progressive neutral actions in favor of equal gender relations. While the major reason for the inclusive conservative practices was referred to the social insecurity for women, the second neutral ones associated to more formal & safer spaces of the city. In conclusion, while both trends are associated deeply with the important issues of “sex” & “body” in patriarchal thoughts, still strong, they are the consequences of the transitional period of social change in macro level, and the challenges involved regarding interactions between social orders, between old system of patriarchy, the traditional biased “gender spatial” relations and the new one of equal relations. The case study drew an inhomogeneous illustration regarding gender spatial aspects of life in Tehran, the opposite groups of “open” and “conservative”, and the large group of “semi open semi conservative” between them. In macro perspective it presents contradicted social groups according their general life styles; they are the manifestations of challenging trends towards tradition and modernity in Iranian society. This illustration while presents unstable social situations, necessitates probing solutions for social integration; exploring the directions could make heterogeneous social groups close in the way they think and the form they live in spaces. Democratic approaches like participatory development planning might be helpful for the city in its way to more solidarity and sustainability regarding its social spatial – gender as well – development, in macro levels of social spatial planning and in micro levels of physical planning, in private space of house and in public spaces of the city.

In the last years, the main orientation of Formal Concept Analysis (FCA) has turned from mathematics towards computer science. This article provides a review of this new orientation and analyzes why and how FCA and computer science attracted each other. It discusses FCA as a knowledge representation formalism using five knowledge representation principles provided by Davis, Shrobe, and Szolovits [DSS93]. It then studies how and why mathematics-based researchers got attracted by computer science. We will argue for continuing this trend by integrating the two research areas FCA and Ontology Engineering. The second part of the article discusses three lines of research which witness the new orientation of Formal Concept Analysis: FCA as a conceptual clustering technique and its application for supporting the merging of ontologies; the efficient computation of association rules and the structuring of the results; and the visualization and management of conceptual hierarchies and ontologies including its application in an email management system.

Das Ziel der Dissertation war die Untersuchung des Computereinsatzes zur Lern- und Betreuungsunterstützung beim selbstgesteuerten Lernen in der Weiterbildung. In einem bisher konventionell durchgeführten Selbstlernkurs eines berufsbegleitenden Studiengangs, der an das Datenmanagement der Bürodatenverarbeitung heranführt, wurden die Kursunterlagen digitalisiert, die Betreuung auf eine online-basierte Lernbegleitung umgestellt und ein auf die neuen Lernmedien abgestimmtes Lernkonzept entwickelt. Dieses neue Lernkonzept wurde hinsichtlich der Motivation und der Akzeptanz von digitalen Lernmedien evaluiert. Die Evaluation bestand aus zwei Teilen: 1. eine formative, den Entwicklungsprozess begleitende Evaluation zur Optimierung der entwickelten Lernsoftware und des eingeführten Lernkonzeptes, 2. eine sowohl qualitative wie quantitative summative Evaluation der Entwicklungen. Ein zentraler Aspekt der Untersuchung war die freie Wahl der Lernmedien (multimediale Lernsoftware oder konventionelles Begleitbuch) und der Kommunikationsmedien (online-basierte Lernplattform oder die bisher genutzten Kommunikationskanäle: E-Mail, Telefon und Präsenztreffen). Diese Zweigleisigkeit erlaubte eine differenzierte Gegenüberstellung von konventionellen und innovativen Lernarrangements. Die Verbindung von qualitativen und quantitativen Vorgehensweisen, auf Grund derer die subjektiven Einstellungen der Probanden in das Zentrum der Betrachtung rückten, ließen einen Blickwinkel auf den Nutzen und die Wirkung der Neuen Medien in Lernprozessen zu, der es erlaubte einige in der Literatur als gängig angesehene Interpretationen in Frage zu stellen und neu zu diskutieren. So konnten durch eine Kategorisierung des Teilnehmerverhaltens nach online-typisch und nicht online-typisch die Ursache-Wirkungs-Beziehungen der in vielen Untersuchungen angeführten Störungen in Online-Seminaren verdeutlicht werden. In den untersuchten Kursen zeigte sich beispielsweise keine Abhängigkeit der Drop-out-Quote von den Lern- und Betreuungsformen und dass diese Quote mit dem neuen Lernkonzept nur geringfügig beeinflusst werden konnte. Die freie Wahl der Lernmedien führte zu einer gezielten Nutzung der multimedialen Lernsoftware, wodurch die Akzeptanz dieses Lernmedium stieg. Dagegen war die Akzeptanz der Lernenden gegenüber der Lernbegleitung mittels einer Online-Lernplattform von hoch bis sehr niedrig breit gestreut. Unabhängig davon reichte in allen Kursdurchgängen die Online-Betreuung nicht aus, so dass Präsenztreffen erbeten wurde. Hinsichtlich der Motivation war die Wirkung der digitalen Medien niedriger als erwartet. Insgesamt bieten die Ergebnisse Empfehlungen für die Planung und Durchführung von computerunterstützten, online-begleiteten Kursen.

Rice straw is used in Northeastern Thailand as an alternative to organic fertilizer for crop production. This enables farmers to reduce the use of chemical fertilizers which leads to a decrease in production costs. In spite of the beneficial effects in agricultural production, rice straw compost cannot be produced in large amounts because the burning of rice straws is a common farming practice. The decisions of farmers who use rice straw compost have been investigated by interviewing 120 households belonging to the members of an organic fertilizer user group using a household questionnaire. The study was conducted to evaluate the factors that affect the use of rice straw compost in Khon Kaen Province in Northeastern Thailand. Results of the logit model showed that the farmers’ education, number of rice straw compost trainings in which the farmer participated, lack of knowledge about technology, insufficient labour and difficulty in making rice straw compost had a significant impact on the farmer’s decision to use rice straw compost. Difficulty in making rice straw compost appeared to be the root cause because the procedure of making rice straw compost is complex and labour intensive. Repeated trainings thus, will have a positive and significant influence on farmers’ adoption of the technology. Training provides more knowledge and will presumably change the perception of the farmers towards new technologies and the awareness of positive effects of rice straw compost utilization.
