Lifetime techniques are applied to diverse fields of study including materials sciences, semiconductor physics, biology, molecular biophysics and photochemistry.
Here we present DDRS4PALS, a software for the acquisition and simulation of lifetime spectra using the DRS4 evaluation board (Paul Scherrer Institute, Switzerland) for time resolved measurements and digitization of detector output pulses. Artifact afflicted pulses can be corrected or rejected prior to the lifetime calculation to provide the generation of high-quality lifetime spectra, which are crucial for a profound analysis, i.e. the decomposition of the true information. Moreover, the pulses can be streamed on an (external) hard drive during the measurement and subsequently downloaded in the offline mode without being connected to the hardware. This allows the generation of various lifetime spectra at different configurations from one single measurement and, hence, a meaningful comparison in terms of analyzability and quality. Parallel processing and an integrated JavaScript based language provide convenient options to accelerate and automate time consuming processes such as lifetime spectra simulations.
Diese Promotion befasst sich mit der Entwicklung eines neuartigen High-Fidelity, Full-Procedural Simulationsmodell für die Durchführung einer offenen Nabelhernienreparation mit präperitonealen Netzimplantation in Underlay-Position (NANEP-Modell). Das Übungsmodell setzten wir in einem eigens konstruierten Operationskurs in der Allgemein- und Viszeralchirugie der Universitätsklinik Würzburg ein. Ziel war die Validierung des Modells durch Untersuchung der Inhalts-Validität, der Konstrukt-Validität und der Differentiellen Validität. Die auf Video aufgezeichneten Operationen der Probanden wurden auf der Internetplattform Catlive mithilfe des Competency Assessment Tools bewertet. Der Lernzuwachs wurde gemessen und untersucht. Die operierten Modelle wurden zur Prüfung der Kriteriums-Validität autopsiert.
The present dissertation investigates the management of RFID implementations in retail trade. Our work contributes to this by investigating important aspects that have so far received little attention in scientific literature. We therefore perform three studies about three important aspects of managing RFID implementations. We evaluate in our first study customer acceptance of pervasive retail systems using privacy calculus theory. The results of our study reveal the most important aspects a retailer has to consider when implementing pervasive retail systems. In our second study we analyze RFID-enabled robotic inventory taking with the help of a simulation model. The results show that retailers should implement robotic inventory taking if the accuracy rates of the robots are as high as the robots’ manufacturers claim. In our third and last study we evaluate the potentials of RFID data for supporting managerial decision making. We propose three novel methods in order to extract useful information from RFID data and propose a generic information extraction process. Our work is geared towards practitioners who want to improve their RFID-enabled processes and towards scientists conducting RFID-based research.
