In God's Hands
Against the backdrop of Hummelshof, the authors family estate in todays Estonia, the author describes how a large, working estate was managed and the grand but formal lifestyle that was typical of that time and place. But intertwined in her description of elegant country house festivities, she also writes of her childhood at Hummelshof in an atmosphere of strict, Prussian discipline maintained by her mothers cold, imperial attitude toward the children. Suffering thus from a feeling of rejection and loneliness, the author develops a love of nature and a deep spirituality-her voices-which sustain her on many occasions during later years of war and deprivation. The remainder of her memoir is a saga of extraordinary times World War I, the Bolshevik Revolution in Russia and World War II during which she repeatedly finds her and her familys survival in jeopardy, and culminating in the murder of her then former husband and much of his family by the Soviets. Finally, it is in their flight from the Soviets that she leads her elderly parents and young daughter through the burning ruins of Berlin in the last days of Nazi Germany.
Workflow-based Process Controlling
Workflow-based Process Controlling Systems provide companies with the ability to measure the operational performance of their business processes in a timely and accurate fashion. The combination of workflow audit trails with data warehouse technology and operational business data allows for complex analyses that can support managers in their assessment of an organization's performance.

Michael zur Muehlen discusses the integration of workflow audit trail data with existing data warehouse structures and develops a ref...

In God's Hands
Ellen von Samson-Himmelstjerna von zur Muehlen was born at Hummelshof, her family's estate in north Livonia, then one of the Baltic provinces of Tsarist Russia and part of today's Estonia. Her family belonged to the Baltic German nobility - "the Baltic Barons" - many of whom were descendants of the Teutonic Knights and Livonian Knights who in medieval times brought Christianity to the region. Through the centuries the Baltic German landed aristocracy was the dominant force in the religious, cultural and economic development of the Baltic provinces, particularly in Estonia and Latvia. In the process they accumulated considerable wealth and vast landholdings which they were able to retain larg...

Viewpoint-based Flexible Information System Architectures
Information system architecture (ISA) specification as a part of software engineering field has been an information systems research topic since the 60's of the 20th century. There have been manifold specification methodologies over the recent decades, developed newly or adapted in order to target the domains of software modelling, legacy systems, steel production, and automotive safety. Still, there exist considerable issues constituting the need for a flexible ISA development, e.g. incomplete methodology for requirements in model-driven architectures, lacking qualitative methods for thorough definition and usage of viewpoints. Currently existing methods for information system architecture ...
