Advances in Ontology Design and Patterns
The study of patterns in the context of ontology engineering for the semantic web was pioneered more than a decade ago by Blomqvist, Sandkuhl and Gangemi. Since then, this line of research has flourished and led to the development of ontology design patterns, knowledge patterns, and linked data patterns: the patterns as they are known by ontology designers, knowledge engineers, and linked data publishers, respectively. A key characteristic of those patterns is that they are modular and reusable solutions to recurrent problems in ontology engineering and linked data publishing. This book contains recent contributions which advance the state of the art on theory and use of ontology design patterns. The papers collected in this book cover a range of topics, from a method to instantiate content patterns, a proposal on how to document a content pattern, to a number of patterns emerging in ontology modeling in various situations.
Business Information Systems
This book contains the refereed proceedings of the 14th International Conference on Business Information Systems, BIS 2011, held in Poznań, Poland, in June 2011.

Artificial Intelligence for Knowledge Management
This book features a selection of papers presented at the First IFIP WG 12.6 International Workshop on Artificial Intelligence for Knowledge Management, AI4KM 2012, held in Montpellier, France, in August 2012, in conjunction with the 20th European Conference on Artificial Intelligence, ECAI 2012. The 11 revised and extended papers were carefully reviewed and selected for inclusion in this volume. They present new research and innovative aspects in the field of knowledge management.
Death Is Not So Bad!
When Tim Renner applied to the German record company Polydor in 1986, he intended to write an exposé about the music industry. However, things went differently and he turned this exposé into a career. For eighteen years his biography has been intermeshed with the development of the music industry, he led bands like Element of Crime, Rammstein, Tocotronic and Philip Boa to sucess. He raised up higher and higher on the ladder, finally reaching the top of Universal Music Germany. He witnessed how musical development has been hampered by the pressure of the markets, how pop and commerce diffused, and importantly, he witnessed the rapid dissolution of old comercial structures through the forces...
Critical Issues for the Development of Sustainable E-health Solutions
Pervasive healthcare is an emerging research discipline, focusing on the development and application of pervasive and ubiquitous computing technology for healthcare and wellness. Pervasive healthcare seeks to respond to a variety of pressures on healthcare systems, including the increased incidence of life-style related and chronic diseases, emerging consumerism in healthcare, need for empowering patients and relatives for self-care and management of their health, and need to provide seamless access for healthcare services, independent of time and place. Pervasive healthcare may be defined from two perspectives. First, it is the development and application of pervasive computing (or ubiquito...
Between Marx and Coca-Cola
In the 1960s and 70s, a new youth consciousness emerged in Western Europe which gave this period its distinct character. This volume demonstrates how international developments fused with national traditions, producing specific youth cultures that became leading trendsetters of emergent post-industrial Western societies.
Recht und Praxis der GEMA
Das Buch ist ein Novum. Erstmals werden die Grundlagen der Wahrnehmungstätigkeit der Gesellschaft für musikalisches Aufführungs- und mechanisches Vervielfältigungsrecht - GEMA umfassend dargestellt, fachkundig erläutert und wissenschaftlich durchdrungen. Dabei geht es neben den historischen und rechtlichen Grundlagen vor allem um die Darstellung und Erläuterung der "Binnenregeln" der GEMA: der Satzung, des Berechtigungsvertrags und des Verteilungsplans. Zudem wird eine Übersicht über die Praxis der Lizenzierung gegeben. Eine solche Darstellung ist seit langem ein Desiderat der Praxis und Wissenschaft. Berechtigten und Nutzern, Aufsichtsbehörden und Gerichten, aber auch Wissenschaftlern soll es zuverlässig Auskunft über die Wahrnehmungstätigkeit geben und so zur Transparenz beitragen.
Praise and Worship
Den überkonfessionellen und weltweiten Trend der Praise-and-Worship-Music greift der Theologe Andreas Scheuermann in dieser wissenschaftlichen Untersuchung auf und zeigt Chancen und auch Gefahren. Lobpreis und Anbetung in Form der Praise-and-Worship-Music wird in vielen, besonders freikirchlichen oder evangelikalen Gottesdiensten, zur dominierenden Musik- und Gebetsform und etabliert sich auch in landeskirchlichen Gemeinden immer häufiger. Trotzdem gibt es im deutschen Sprachraum bisher noch keine praktisch-theologische Erforschung dieses kirchenmusikalischen Phänomens. Andreas Scheuermann untersucht die Bedeutung, das Potenzial und die Grenzen von Lobpreismusik insbesondere im Gottesdien...
