We outline the main elements of what we call polyscopic structuring of information and argue that information needs to be structured accordingly. The principles of polyscopy may both serve as guidelines for creating Topic Maps, and provide orientation for further development of Topic Maps standards and software.

vi CHAPTER 1. OVERVIEW 1

Topic Maps are means for representing sophisticated, conceptual indexes of any information collection for the purpose of semantic information integration. To properly fulfil this purpose, the generation of Topic Maps has to base on a solid theory. This paper proposes the Observation Principle as the theoretical fundament of a future scientific discipline Topic Maps Engineering. SemanticTalk gen...

In dieser Untersuchung werden die drei Lokalen Suchmaschinen Google Maps, Bing Maps und TOnline Maps in einem kombinierten Eye-Trackingund Usability-Test verglichen. Es zeigen sich sowohl Probleme bei der Benutzung einzelner Suchmaschinen als auch übergreifende Ergebnisse, die für die Gestaltung von kartenbasierten Suchmaschinen relevant sind. Wir geben Empfehlungen für die Gestaltung solcher S...

The purpose of this paper is to calculate the cyclic homology of rings of integers of global fields. We accomplish this by explicitly computing the homology of the simple complex associated to Tsygan’s double complex. To accomplish this, we first compute the cyclic homology of cyclic algebras, i.e., algebras of the form A = R[t]/(P (t)), where P is a monic polynomial with coefficients in R. Mor...

Abstract The Amit conjecture about word maps on finite nilpotent groups has been shown to hold for certain classes of groups. generalised says that the probability an element occurring in image a map group G is either 0, or at least 1/| |. Noting work Ashurst, we name Amit–Ashurst and show holds p -groups with cyclic maximal subgroup.

The engine manufacturer has aimed to attain optimum values for engines operating different loads and speeds by utilizing the characteristics of both spark-ignition having a ready combustion control compression ignition resulting in low emissions, fuel consumption and, high output power years. In this regard, efforts on improvement performance, thermal efficiency have been constantly continuing ...
