Today’s widely used programming approach for mobile distributed systems, e.g., swarms, is bottom-up. I.e., the programmer has to be aware of the system’s distribution. Such a kind of programming corrupts the principle Separation of Concerns and turns out to be complicated. This article proposes a top-down approach for the programming of mobile distributed systems. It should be incorporated in a new operating system to be developed by our research group. Classical distributed systems often are...

DBMI11 is the third public version of the Italian Macroseismic Database, which collects the observations that emerged in publications during the period 2006-2010. This version does not contain the results of some methodological developments carried out within the framework of the EC "SHARE" project (Seismic Hazard Harmonization in Europe); furthermore, it still does not use a considerable amount of new information made available by: Molin et al. (2008); Camassi et al. (2011); the 2009 version...

This dataset is one of seven datasets that analyses a water supply option in terms of externalities (positive and negative effects that are not taken into account directly in market-place transactions). The water service option covered in this dataset is rainwater tanks, which have three common elements: a catchment surface off which rainwater is collected; a storage reservoir; and a delivery system (pumps and pipes). Related datasets cover stormwater harvesting, desalination, dams, wastewater recycling, groundwater,...

The data presented here represent the benthic macroinvertebrate data collected in 1976 and 1977 along the Salmon River mainstem. These data were part of the original river continuum concept (RCC) project. Seven sites were sampled seasonally over the two year period. Four sites on the upper Salmon River mainstem (i.e., Camp, Smiley, Obsidian, and Casino) were sampled in March and July of 1976. Four sites on the mid to lower Salmon River were sampled in...

The 4LGSF is to be installed as a subsystem of the ESO Adaptive Optics Facility (AOF, [1]) on Unit Telescope 4 (UT4) of the VLT, to provide the AO instruments GALACSI/MUSE and GRAAL/HAWK-I with four sodium laser guide stars. The 4LGSF will deploy four modular LGS Units at the UT4 Centrepiece. Two key aspects of the 4LGSF design are: (i) new industrial laser source (fibre lasers) with reduced volume, reduced need of maintenance, higher reliability,...

Die Ergebnisse einer Befragung der deutschen Öffentlichkeit zum Thema Welternährung werden in diesem Beitrag vorgestellt. Die Befragung wurde online mit 1.200 Personen durchgeführt. Welternährung ist für die Mehrheit kein Top-Thema. Die Meisten nehmen das Hungerproblem vor allem dann war, wenn die Medien in akuten Krisensituationen darüber berichten. Die Bewertung von Ursachen und Maßnahmen zeigt, dass Hunger in erster Linie als Verteilungsproblem gesehen wird. Ansätze zur Produktivitätssteigerung in der Landwirtschaft werden überwiegend als nicht zentral für...

Der Abschlussbericht zum Förderprojekt „Modellhafte Sanierung umweltgeschädigter Pfeilervor-lagen an der im neugotischen Stil errichteten Kathedrale St. Jakobus im Görlitz“ AZ 29157 mit der Deutschen Bundesstiftung Umwelt (DBU) setzt sich zusammen aus Ergebnissen der ein-zelnen Zwischenberichte, die über den Projektzeitraum hinweg erarbeitet wurden, sowie den zusätzlichen Kapiteln zur Baugeschichte, erarbeitet von Herrn, Backhaus dem Leiter der Abtei-lung Bauerhaltung/Baubetreuung des Ordinariatsrats Görltiz, und einem Sanierungsbericht der leitenden Architektin Frau Kohla.

Today, ontologies are the standard for representing knowledge about concepts and relations among concepts concerning specific domains. In general, ontology languages are based on crisp logic and thus they can not handle incomplete or partial knowledge about application domain. However, uncertainty exists in domain modeling, ontology reasoning, and concept mapping. Our choice for dealing with uncertainty, is the Bayesian probability theory. The technique of representing an ontology by means of a bayesian network is used...
