EG-ICE 2020 Workshop on Intelligent Computing in Engineering

The 27th EG-ICE International Workshop 2020 brings together international experts working at the interface between advanced computing and modern engineering challenges. Many engineering tasks require open-world resolutions to support multi-actor collaboration, coping with approximate models, providing effective engineer-computer interaction, search in multi-dimensional solution spaces, accommodating uncertainty, including specialist domain knowledge, performing sensor-data interpretation and dealing with incomplete knowledge. While results from computer science provide much initial support for resolution, adaptation is unavoidable and most importantly, feedback from addressing engineering ch...

10. Kolloquium Industrieböden

Industrieböden sind Bodenkonstruktionen, die im täglichen Gebrauch starken Beanspruchungen ausgesetzt sind. Dabei sind die Art der Nutzung, Umweltbedingungen sowie physikalische und chemische Beanspruchungen entscheidend für die jeweilige Bodenkonstruktion und ihren speziellen Aufbau. Zu den Industrieböden gehören Böden im gewerblichen Bereich, Parkhausböden, Böden in öffentlichen Gebäuden und viele andere. Kurz gefasst ist nahezu jeder Boden gemeint, der nicht zu Wohnzwecken dient. Seit 25 Jahren treffen sich beim Kolloquium Industrieböden alle drei Jahre einige hundert Experten an der TAE, um Probleme zu diskutieren, die die Konstruktion, die Ausführung und der Gebrauch von stark beanspruchten Böden mit sich bringen. Hauptziel der Veranstaltung ist dabei nicht nur die Diskussion von Problemen und Lösungen, sondern auch, Experten aus unterschiedlichen Bereichen zueinander zu bringen und eine Plattform für den persönlichen Erfahrungsaustausch zu bieten. Beim 10. Kolloquium Industrieböden werden mehr als 40 Fachvorträge in drei parallelen Sessions zum aktuellen Stand der Wissenschaft und Technik sowie neuesten Entwicklungen und Trends angeboten.

Graffiti Scratched, Scrawled, Sprayed

  • Categories: Art

Over the last two decades, the study of graffiti has emerged as a bustling field, invigorated by increased appreciation for their historical, linguistic, sociological, and anthropological value and propelled by ambitious documentation projects. The growing understanding of graffiti as a perennial, universal phenomenon is spurring holistic consideration of this mode of graphic expression across time and space. Graffiti Scratched, Scrawled, Sprayed: Towards a Cross-Cultural Understanding complements recent efforts to showcase the diversity in creation, reception, and curation of graffiti around the globe, throughout history and up to the present day. reflecting on methodology, concepts, and terminology as well as spatial, social, and historical contexts of graffiti, the book's fourteen chapters cover ancient Egypt, Rome, Northern Arabia, Persia, India, and the Maya; medieval Eastern Mediterranean, Turfan, and Dunhuang; and contemporary Tanzania, Brazil, China, and Germany. As a whole, the collection provides a comprehensive toolkit for newcomers to the field of graffiti studies and appeals to specialists interested in viewing these materials in a cross-cultural perspective.

Reconstructing the Roman Republic

In recent decades, scholars have argued that the Roman Republic's political culture was essentially democratic in nature, stressing the central role of the 'sovereign' people and their assemblies. Karl-J. Hölkeskamp challenges this view in Reconstructing the Roman Republic, warning that this scholarly trend threatens to become the new orthodoxy, and defending the position that the republic was in fact a uniquely Roman, dominantly oligarchic and aristocratic political form. Hölkeskamp offers a comprehensive, in-depth survey of the modern debate surrounding the Roman Republic. He looks at the ongoing controversy first triggered in the 1980s when the 'oligarchic orthodoxy' was called into que...
