- ItemSemantic modelling of video annotations – the TIB AV-Portal's metadata structure(Zenodo, 2018) Saurbier, FelixThe TIB AV-Portal (https://av.tib.eu) is an online platform for sharing scientific videos operated by the German National Library of Science and Technology (TIB). Besides the allocation of Digital Object Identifiers (DOI) and Media Fragment Identifiers (MFID) for video citation, long-term preservation of all material and open licenses like Creative Commons, the core feature of the TIB AV-Portal are its various methods of automated metadata extraction to fundamentally improve search functionalities (e.g. fine-grained search and faceting). These comprise of an automated chaptering, extraction of superimposed text, speech to text recognition, and the detection of predefined visual concepts. In addition, extracted metadata are consequently mapped against authority files like the German “Gemeinsame Normdatei” and knowledge bases like DBpedia and Library of Congress Subject Headings via a process of automated named entity linking (NEL) to enable semantic and cross-lingual search. The results of this process are expressed as temporal and/or spatial video annotations, linking extracted metadata to certain key frames and video segments. In order to structure the data, express relations between single entities, and link to external information resources, several common vocabularies, ontologies and knowledge bases are being used. These include amongst others the Open Annotation Data Model, the NLP Interchange Format (NIF), BIBFRAME, the Friend of Friend Vocabulary (FOAF), and Schema.org. Furthermore, all data is stored adhering to the Resource Description Framework (RDF) data model and published as linked open data. This provides third parties with an interoperable and easy to reuse RDF graph representation of the AV-Portal’s metadata. On our poster we illustrate the general structure of the TIB AV-Portal’s comprehensive metadata both authoritative and extracted automatically. Here, the main focus is on the underlying video annotation graph model and on semantic interoperability and reusability of the data. In particular we visualize how the use of vocabularies, ontologies and knowledge bases allows for rich semantic descriptions of video materials as well as for easy metadata publication, interlinking, and opportunities of reuse by third parties (e.g. for information retrieval and enrichment). In doing so, we present the AV-Portal’s metadata structure as an illustrative example for the complexity of modelling temporal and spatial video metadata and as a set of best practices in the field of audio-visual resources.
- ItemSprints und kollaboratives Wissensmanagement im Confluence-Wiki der Technischen Informationsbibliothek(Reutlingen : Berufsverband Information Bibliothek e. V., 2017) Strobel, SvenSoziale Softwarewerkzeuge wie Wikis sind in Unternehmen und auch im Bibliotheksbereich längst etabliert. Sie unterstützen das Projekt- und Wissensmanagement der Organisation. Häufig werden die Möglichkeiten, die diese Techniken bieten, allerdings nicht voll ausgeschöpft. Dieser Beitrag zeigt anhand eines Projekts der Technischen Informationsbibliothek (TIB), wie wesentlich das Unternehmenswiki das Wissensmanagement und kollaborative Arbeiten in Projekten unterstützen kann, wenn es intensiv genutzt wird. Die TIB musste nicht erst eine teure und komplizierte Software hinzukaufen, sondern setzte auf das im Haus bereits etablierte Confluence-Wiki. Confluence ist ein Standard-Tool, das in vielen Bibliotheken verwendet wird. Das TIB-Projekt hatte zum Ziel, den Relaunch des AV-Portals (av.tib.eu) zu organisieren. Das Team integrierte in seine Projektarbeit ein Konzept aus dem agilen Produktmanagement: sog. Sprints“. Diese Sprints wurden mit einem differenzierten und rollenbasierten Prozess im Confluence-Wiki abgebildet. In dem von der TIB entwickelten Sprint-Konzept legt der Projektmanager ein Dokument im Wiki an, in dem er erste Anforderungen und Aufgaben für alle Teammitglieder festhält. Die Teammitglieder schreiben das Konzept kollaborativ auf einer Wiki-Seite und arbeiten ihre Aufgaben ab. Der Projektmanager nutzt das Wiki, um Konzeptfortschritt und Aufgabenbearbeitung zu kontrollieren. Sprints liefern am Ende Konzepte, die kollaborativ evaluiert, entwickelt und abgenommen wurden. Sie vereinfachen und beschleunigen komplexe Entscheidungsfindungen und lassen sich in zahlreichen Bereichen des Projekt- und Wissensmanagements anwenden. Der Beitrag stellt Ablauf, Rollen und Dokumente des TIB-Sprint-Workflows detailliert vor.

- ItemMicrostructure evolution during annealing of an SPD- processed supersaturated Cu – 3 at.% Ag alloy(Bristol : IOP Publishing, 2014) Gubicza, J.; Hegedűs, Z.; Lábár, J.L.; Sarma, V.S.; Kauffmann, A.; Freudenberger, J.Supersaturated Cu-3 at.% Ag alloy was processed by rolling at liquid nitrogen temperature and subsequent annealing at 623 K up to 20 min. It was found that after annealing, an inhomogeneous solute atom distribution developed, since the Ag particles with small size and/or large specific interfacial energy were dissolved due to the Gibbs-Thomson effect. In the region where the solute concentration increased, a high dislocation density was retained in the Cu matrix even after annealing, while in the region where the Ag solute content did not increase, the dislocation density decreased by more than one order of magnitude. Therefore, in the cryorolled and annealed samples, heterogeneous microstructures were developed where both the dislocation density and the solute concentration varied considerably.
- ItemAerosol properties over Southeastern China from multi-wavelength Raman and depolarization lidar measurements(Les Ulis : EDP Sciences, 2016) Heese, Birgit; Althausen, Dietrich; Baars, Holger; Bohlmann, Stephanie; Deng, RuruA dataset of particle optical properties of highly polluted urban aerosol over the Pearl River Delta, Guangzhou, China is presented. The data were derived from multi-wavelengths Raman and depolarization lidar PollyXT and AERONET sun photometer measurements. The measurement campaign was conducted from Nov 2011 to June 2012. High aerosol optical depth was observed in the polluted atmosphere over this megacity, with a mean value of 0.54 ± 0.33 and a peak value of even 1.9. For the particle characterization the lidar ratio and the linear particle depolarization ratio, both at 532 nm, were used. The mean values of these properties are 48.0 sr ± 10.7 sr for the lidar ratio and 4%+-4% for the particle depolarization ratio, which means most depolarization measurements stayed below 10%. So far, most of these results indicate urban pollution particles mixed with particles arisen from biomass and industrial burning.
- ItemVIVO-DE-Extension und VIVO-KDSF – Ontologien für den deutschsprachigen Raum(Zenodo, 2017) Kasprzik, AnnaDer Aufbau einer deutschsprachigen Version der Fachinformationssystem-Software VIVO ist nicht so einfach, da sich auf allen Ebenen des Systems sprachspezifische Elemente finden -- von der Anzeige bis hin zu den enthaltenen Ontologien -- und da eine direkte Übersetzung aufgrund kultureller Unterschiede in den Wissenschaftslandschaften oft nicht möglich ist. In dieser Präsentation werden die entsprechenden Aktivitäten der deutschsprachigen VIVO-Community vorgestellt und es wird zur Beteiligung aufgerufen.
- Item3D Structure of Saharan Dust Transport Towards Europe as Seen by CALIPSO(Les Ulis : EDP Sciences, 2016) Marinou, Eleni; Amiridis, Vassilis; Tsekeri, Alexandra; Solomos, Stavros; Kokkalis, Panos; Proestakis, Emmanouil; Kottas, Michael; Binietoglou, Ioannis; Zanis, Prodromos; Kazadzis, Stelios; Wandinger, Ulla; Ansmann, AlbertWe present a 3D multi-year monthly mean climatology of Saharan dust advection over Europe using an area-optimized pure dust CALIPSO product. The product has been developed by applying EARLINET-measured dust lidar ratios and depolarization-based dust discrimination methods and it is shown to have a very good agreement in terms of AOD when compared to AERONET over Europe/North Africa and MODIS over Mediterranean. The processing of such purely observational data reveals the certain seasonal patterns of dust transportation towards Europe and the Atlantic Ocean. The physical and optical properties of the dust layer are identified for several areas near the Saharan sources, over the Mediterranean and over continental Europe.
- ItemTransparent conductive oxides for coating applications(Saarbrücke : Leibniz-Institut für Neue Materialien, 2009) Quilitz, Mario; Oliveira, Peter W. de; Heusing, Sabine; Veith, MichaelTransparent, conductive oxides (TCOs) applied as coatings find multiple applications in various areas such as flat panel display setups, as electrodes in touch-screen panels, electrochromic devices, solar cells and in architectural applications for example as IR reflectors. The favored material in the class of TCOs is still ITO - Sn-doped In2O3 - due to its unique combination of high transparency and electrical conductivity. Though already very good, the potential of the ITO coatings with regard to their conductivity leaves some space for future improvements. Also ITO as a material has some serious drawbacks, such as limited availability and high costs. this work presents some stratgies to overcome these obstacles. One way to enhance the conductivities of alternative materials is to use carbon nanotubes as a dopant. This strategy was tested for ATO (Antimony-doped Tin Oxide), Titan dioxide and AZO (Aluminium-doped Zinc oxide). The results for these materials are presented. In coatings of ITO on glass or polymeric foils usually silica-based binders are used. They have the disadvantage to reduce the contact between the highly conducting grains and thus reduce overall conductivity in the composite. The matrix between the nanoparticles can be improved by several measures. Experiments with relevance in this direction are discussed. A third strategy aims at the reduction of costs in the process of ITO fabrication. Here one way to go is to use an electrochemical synthesis method. Results of the line of development are presented. Other strategies comprise the suitable processing of materials with a lower intrinsic conductivity or the search for materials with high intrinsic conductivity close to that of ITO. Exmples are presented and discussed.
- ItemConsortial certification processes – The Goportis digital archive. A case study(Bern : Swiss National Library, 2016) Friese, Yvonne; Gerdes, Thomas; Schwab, Franziska; Bähr, ThomasSubject Libraries. One key area of collaboration is digital preservation. The Goportis Digital Archive is jointly used by the consortial partners. As part of their quality management the partners strive to obtain certifications for trustworthy digital repositories. The Goportis Consortium successfully applied for the Data Seal of Approval (DSA) [1] and is currently working on the application for the nestor Seal [2]. The poster illustrates the collaboration of the Goportis partners during the certification process (distribution of tasks, time frame, etc.). This way it could serve as best-practice example for other institutions interested in consortial certification.
- ItemGuidelines for Open Educational Resources for Libraries and Information Institutions(Den Haag : IFLA, 2017) Stummeyer, Sabine„UNESCO believes that universal access to high quality education is key to the building of peace, sustainable social and economic development, and intercultural dialogue. Open Educational Resources (OER) provide a strategic opportunity to improve the quality of education as well as facilitate policy dialogue, knowledge sharing and capacity building“. Libraries and librarians have the task to facilitate unrestriced and free access to information to everyone. This includes Open Educational Resources (OER), which enable their users to retain, reuse, revise, remix and redistribute – the „5R“ of David Wiley about OER - open content. Libraries have a traditional affinity to learning material, public libraries especially in the school sector, acadmic libraries in higher education. Moreover the importance of OER for public as well as for academic libraries increased continually during the past years. But what are the main issues for libraries and librarians that they need to consider? Where do they get reliable information about these issues? A semester project at the Applied University of Hannover identified six main topics and described them in the library context using „handbuch.io“, an open source platform for collaborative writing. During the writing process the project was visible and open for comments for everyone. Using a cc-by licence makes it possible for everyone to retain, reuse, revise, remix and redistribute this OER for librarians about OER. A DOI makes it permanently quotable.
