Peirce's "Diagrammatic Reasoning" As A Solution Of The Learning Paradox, Michael H.G. Hoffmann Jan 2003

Peirce's "Diagrammatic Reasoning" As A Solution Of The Learning Paradox, Michael H.G. Hoffmann

Michael H.G. Hoffmann

How can we reach “new” levels of knowledge if “new” means that there is something “evolved” that cannot be generated simply by deduction or by induction from what has been given before. The paper’s first goal is to show that two paradigmatic attempts at solving this so-called “learning paradox,” Plato’s apriorism and Aristotle’s inductivism, form two horns of a dilemma: While the inductivist cannot justify any representation of data without assuming a priori given hypotheses, the apriorist cannot justify why a certain application of given ideas is correct without being caught in an infinite regress. The second goal is to …

Active Cultures: Here Come The Hacktivists, Eben English Apr 2002

Active Cultures: Here Come The Hacktivists, Eben English

Eben English

For some, the word "hacker" might conjure visions of a four-eyes, pocket-protected malcontent. But nowadays there's a new breed of hacker, one bent on using his powers for good instead of evil: the hacktivist.


Das Innovationsverhalten Der Deutschen Softwareindustrie, Michael Friedewald, Knut Blind, Jakob Edler Jan 2002

Das Innovationsverhalten Der Deutschen Softwareindustrie, Michael Friedewald, Knut Blind, Jakob Edler

Michael Friedewald

In this article we present the results of two empirical studies focusing on the structure and extent of the innovation activities of the German Software Industry and analyze distinctive features of Software Innovations. We distinguish the activities of the primary (core) Software Industry and secondary industries such as Mechanical and Electrical Engineering, Motor Industry and Telecommunications. A special focus is put on the question if innovations in Software are sequential, on the role of Open Source Software and the importance of inter- operability.

Konzepte Der Mensch-Computer-Kommunikation In Den 1960er Jahren: J. C. R. Licklider, Douglas Engelbart Und Der Computer Als IntelligenzverstäRker, Michael Friedewald Jan 2000

Konzepte Der Mensch-Computer-Kommunikation In Den 1960er Jahren: J. C. R. Licklider, Douglas Engelbart Und Der Computer Als IntelligenzverstäRker, Michael Friedewald

Michael Friedewald

In the history of data processing and computer science the early 1960s were a phase of fundamental decisions. Standards in computer architecture and hardware that are still valid today were established to a large extent. The period of prototypes was finally over. Driven by the military needs in the cold war computers had become industrially manufac- tured products.

At the same time a profound discussion about the nature of the computer arose. On the one side were those arguing that the computer was a means for mechanization and automation of mental activities. For the advocates of this direction the human …


Nutzeranforderungen Und Zukünftige Endgeräte Für Online-Dienste, Michael Friedewald, Castulus Kolo Jan 2000

Nutzeranforderungen Und Zukünftige Endgeräte Für Online-Dienste, Michael Friedewald, Castulus Kolo

Michael Friedewald

Für die Akzeptanz netzbasierter Mediendienste ist die technische Weiterentwicklung der Mensch-Maschine-Schnittstelle von großer Bedeutung. Das Fraunhofer-Institut für Systemtechnik und Innovationsforschung (ISI) in Karlsruhe hat Experten um eine Einschätzung verschiedener Akzeptanzfaktoren, der zukünftigen Entwicklung des Mediennutzungsverhaltens, der Versorgungswege und Endgeräteausstattung sowie der Marktentwicklung gebeten. Im Gegensatz zu weitverbreiteten technophilen Möglichkeitsszenarien werden auf dieser Basis Perspektiven aufgezeigt, die angesichts heutiger Wünsche der Nutzer an die Technikgestaltung und der technischen Möglichkeiten realistisch erscheinen.


Die Geistigen Und Technischen Wurzeln Des Personal Computers, Michael Friedewald Jan 2000

Die Geistigen Und Technischen Wurzeln Des Personal Computers, Michael Friedewald

Michael Friedewald

Personal Computer sind aus der heutigen Arbeitswelt nicht wegzudenken und haben längst ihren festen Platz als privates Kommunikationsmedium. Die historische Analyse zeigt, dass die Ent-wicklung des interaktiven Computers von 1945 bis 1985 nicht zielgerichtet erfolgte. Der heu- tige Stand der Technik ist vielmehr Schlusspunkt einer eher zufälligen Folge lokaler Gegebenhei- ten und Umstände. Technische Neuerungen, wie der Digitalcomputer und die Mikrochips, aber auch theoretische Konzepte (Kybernetik, Kognitive Psychologie) und Visionen trieben die Ent- wicklung voran. Entscheidend für den Durchbruch war das Zusammentreffen akademischer und anwendungsorientierter Forschung.

ZuverläSsig Nur Auf Zeit, Michael Friedewald

Michael Friedewald

Aufbewahren und Kopieren ohne Qualitätsverlust – das gilt als der große Vorteil der digitalen Speicherung von Daten. Aber auch Bänder, Disketten und CDs altern unbemerkt. Wenn man es merkt, ist es zu spät: Die Daten sind futsch. Da hilft nur sachgerechte Aufbewahrung und regelmäßiges Umkopieren – aber wie oft?

What Users Expect From Future Terminal Devices:Empirical Results From An Expert Survey, Castulus Kolo, Michael Friedewald

Michael Friedewald

For the acceptance of future network-based media services the technical advancement of the man-machine interface is of great importance. The Fraunhofer Institute for Systems and In- novation Research (ISI) in Karlsruhe has conducted an expert survey on different acceptance factors, on the future development of media usage behavior, on network infrastructure and terminal devices as well as on the expected market development. Drawing on the results we point out perspectives in the light of today’s user needs and the technical possibilities.

Vom Experimentierfeld Zum Massenmedium: Gestaltende KräFte In Der Entwicklung Des Internet, Michael Friedewald

Michael Friedewald

This article reviews the shaping forces in the last 30 years of Internet develop- ment. A case in point is the convergence of media, computers and telecom, of which the Internet has always been an important aspect. This historical process, which is widely recognized as at once technical, industrial and political, has been and will continue to be fiercely multi-party and multi-faceted. There are a variety of technical alternatives being fought over. Different interests represent different meanings of communications technologies as well, including ideals of private profit and universal access. It is still not clear whether the future of the …


Problems With Peirce's Concept Of Abduction, Michael H.G. Hoffmann Jan 1999

Problems With Peirce's Concept Of Abduction, Michael H.G. Hoffmann

Michael H.G. Hoffmann

Abductive reasoning takes place in forming "hypotheses" in order to explain "facts." Thus, the concept of abduction promises an understanding of creativity in science and learning. It raises, however, also a lot of problems. Some of them will be discussed in this paper: After analyzing the difference between induction and abduction (1), I shall discuss Peirce's claim that there is a "logic" of abduction (2). The thesis is that this claim can be understood, if we make a clear distinction between inferential elements and perceptive elements of abductive reasoning. For Peirce, the creative act of forming explanatory hypotheses and the …

Journalism/ Mass Communication Program World Wide Web Sites: Content, Functionality And Promotional Value, Douglas J. Swanson Ed.D Apr Jan 1999

Journalism/ Mass Communication Program World Wide Web Sites: Content, Functionality And Promotional Value, Douglas J. Swanson Ed.D Apr

Douglas J. Swanson, Ed.D APR

Despite the popularity of promotionally-oriented Web sites within journalism/ mass communication programs in higher education, there has been little examination of sites and their contents. Almost no research has focused on visual, informational, and operational enhancements, or how Web sites of different higher education programs in the discipline differ from each other. This research addresses some of the unanswered questions about how journalism/ mass communication Web sites use enhancements to communicate with online users.

Erkenntnistheoretische Grundlagen Des Lernens: Lernen Als Verallgemeinerung, Michael H.G. Hoffmann

Michael H.G. Hoffmann

Ziel dieses Beitrages ist es, ein Projekt der am Institut für Didaktik der Mathematik (IDM) in Bielefeld beheimateten Arbeitsgruppe Erkenntnistheoretische und semiotische Grundlagen des Mathematik-Lernens vorzustellen und in eine bestimmte Richtung mathematikdidaktischer Forschung einzuordnen, wie sie von Michael Otte vertreten wird, dem Leiter der genannten Arbeitsgruppe. Dabei geht es insbesondere um mögliche Beziehungen zwischen Philosophie und Mathematik-Didaktik.
