QED Coherence in Condensed and Living Matter

From Theoretical Frameworks to Epistemological Implications

Schriftenreihe naturwissenschaftliche Forschungsergebnisse

This book, based on the Author’s Ph.D. dissertation, is an unprecedented work consisting of an extended and detailed review of those scientific studies which give us a field perspective in describing condensed matter, water and, consequently, living matter.

The physical theoretical framework here presented, based on the inestimable work begun by heroic physicists (like Giuliano Preparata, Giuseppe Vitiello, Emilio, Del Giudice, Mae-Wan Ho, Hiroomi…

Learning Styles

A Critical Analysis of the Varied Approaches to Learning Preferences

Schriften zur Pädagogischen Theorie

The term learning style began to appear throughout the educational literature in the 1970s and, like with many comprehensive constructs, its precise definition, and the measurement thereof, remain a matter of somewhat convoluted disagreement. Various researchers have struggled to pinpoint both a comprehensive and functional definition of the construct of learning styles based on a cohesive theoretical framework. However, not only has the semantics of a definition…

Bedeutungsbedürfnisse – Anwendung des Weiblichen in der Produktsprache

Studien zum Konsumentenverhalten

Ein Bürgermeister im pinkfarbenen Blümchenkleid. Ein pinkfarbener Mercedes. Diese Sätze verdeutlichen, dass Produktdesign Kommunikation ist und, dass der moderne Konsument Bedeutungsbedürfnisse hat. Er kauft schon lange nicht mehr nur den funktionalen Produktnutzen. Heute sind es vielmehr subtile Bedeutungskonzepte, die in der zwischenmenschlichen Interaktion transportiert werden sollen, beispielsweise die Zugehörigkeit zu einer bestimmten Gruppe. Bedeutungsbedürfnisse…

Semantic Influences on Episodic Memory

ERP and fMRI Evidence

Studienreihe psychologische Forschungsergebnisse

Recognition memory based on familiarity judgments is a form of declarative memory that has been repeatedly associated with the anterior medial temporal lobe. It has been argued that this region sustains familiarity-based recognition not only by retrieving item-specific information but also by coding for those semantic aspects of an event that support later familiarity-based recognition.
Neuroimaging findings clearly demonstrate that different forms of…

Petri Net Semantics of Logic Programs and Deductive Databases

Forschungsergebnisse zur Informatik

Joining ideas from database theory and logic programming leads to the theory of deductive databases. In addition to the data stored in a database (extensional facts), a deductive database stores rule based knowledge concerning parts of the real world which are modeled by the system. A deductive database management system (DDBMS) consists of two parts: 1) An arbitrary database management system and 2) a deduction mechanism that uses extensional as well as intensional facts…

Auflösung von Anaphern im Rahmen der Informationsextraktion für Ontologie-Management im Bereich Life Sciences

Forschungsergebnisse zur Informatik

Im Bereich Life Sciences spielt die maschinelle Extraktion und strukturierte Speicherung von Informationen in Ontologien eine zunehmend wichtige Rolle. Zur Gewährleistung einer guten Informationsextraktion (IE) müssen Anaphern korrekt aufgelöst werden.

Im Rahmen dieser Studie wird untersucht, inwiefern der vollautomatische, wissensarme Ansatz von [Mitkov et al. 2002] (MARS) zur Anaphernauflösung für die Domäne Life Sciences im Rahmen der Informationsextraktion…

Information Systems within Merging Organizations

Studien zur Wirtschaftsinformatik

Due to the heavily reliance of today’s organizations on their IT-based Information Systems, the integration of the Information Systems (IS) plays a crucial role in the context of Mergers & Acquisitions (M&As).

This study analyzes the role of Information Systems across all stages of the M&A process. The results of an empirical research of recent M&As are used to develop a M&A IT integration method incl. a corresponding decision model. This…

Language & the Brain: The Neural Basis of Foreign Language Proficiency

Angewandte Linguistik aus interdisziplinärer Sicht

The heart of this book is constituted by the scientific discipline of neurolinguistics. The fascinating field of neurolinguistics encompasses the study of the neural mechanisms in the human brain that control the comprehension, production, and acquisition of a native or foreign language. Neurolinguistic research examines the underlying mechanisms of all the major subcategories of language in the brain, e.g. syntax, semantics, phonetics, phonology, or…
