Professor Sauer held a very interesting presentation about the topic. He showed some examples of how mathematics impact the brain and how diverse the separate areas in our head react to different numbers and methods. He also made great use of his own experiences in this field he gained from working together with the university of Gießen and drew a fascinating connection between mathematics and medical science. Thus also non-mathematicians were able to learn to differentiate between calculating numbers and doing mathematics via scientific images of the brain and understand the complex modeling of such data, that in its theory even reaches to the model of tone.

A Beginner’s Guide to Scientific Data Presentation using LaTeX

Thu, 07 Jul 2016 21:50:00 +0000

Evaluating the work done for a seminar paper, a thesis, or even a scientific publication often forces students to present a large amount of data in a consistent and appropriate way. Doing so, one will encounter many pitfalls due to the complexity of the task. It can be a long-running and frustrating process to find out, which way works the best. Although, we cannot provide universally valid rules, we want to give some hints and guidelines with this work. Therefore, we present formal aspects, packages and tools, that are helpful when presenting the evaluation results and data in general.

Simplify your Backup

Wed, 04 Jul 2007 16:11:00 +0000

Unter diesem Titel fand am 28. Juni 2007 das IEEE Special zum Thema Backup statt. Unser Mitglied Jens Oberender stellte nach einer Einführung verschiedene Möglichkeiten für Privatnutzer vor. In einer anschliessenden Diskussion wurden Erfahrungsberichte der Teilnehmer ausgetauscht. Kurzzusammenfassung des Vortrags: Datensicherheit und Langzeitarchivierung sind eine Herausforderung für Industrie und Privatpersonen. Best-Practice-Lösungen, die hochverfügbare Hardware und komplexe Software beinhalten, erfordern große Investitionen für Einrichtung und Wartung. Speichermedien für den Privatgebrauch haben nur eine begrenzte Lebenszeit, so dass Konzepte für das Auffrischen von Medien und Migrieren von Daten zu neuen Softwareversionen nötig sind.
