The material flow simu- lator d3FACT insight shall manage multiple parallel and time synchronous simulations to grand the power of real-time visualization in combination with statistical analysis. This research is issued to overcome the conflict of simulation run repetition for a good statistical basis and real-time immersive visualization. A side effect will be the reduc- tion of time needed for simulation experiments. The planned simulation tool has the feature of triggered cloning, i.e., the user can decide during runtime to clone a set of simulations after changing parameters to preserve the original system. The simulations will be aggregated by visualization and statistics. The rendering is planned to overlay several simulations using effects like inking and transparency. Simulation data will be aggregated with statistical functions and diagrams.}}, author = {{Dangelmaier, Wilhelm and Huber, Daniel and Laroque, Christoph and Aufenanger, Mark and Fischer, Matthias and Krokowski, Jens and Kortenjan, Michael}}, booktitle = {{Simulation and Visualization 2006 (SimViS)}}, pages = {{79--88}}, publisher = {{SCS European Publishing House}}, title = {{{d³FACT insight goes parallel - Aggregation of multiple simulations}}}, year = {{2006}}, } @article{9543, abstract = {{An improved concept for ultrasonic hyperthermia of tumors is presented. This concept is based on past experience of a German government supported project [1], which ended in 1984. It offers a low cost alternative to common RF- and microwave methods for hyperthermia of tumors with volumes between 1 and 40 ml at treatment times between 30 and 60 min. Our new version of the system considerably improves the temperature suppression in the healthy tissue around the target area and enables the adjustment of the beam width to the actual tumor size and the field geometry to the depth and shape of the tumor. The applicator can be used for moderate hyperthermia with tissue overheating up to 10 K or for ablation therapy with short high temperature pulses. Its central area is free for the integration of a commercial ultrasonic diagnostic sector scanner or a Doppler flow sensor in order to support the adjustment of the transducer and to monitor the whole area during the therapy.}}, author = {{Lierke, E.G. and Hemsel, Tobias}}, issn = {{0041-624X}}, journal = {{Ultrasonics}}, keywords = {{Moderate hyperthermia}}, pages = {{e341 -- e344}}, title = {{{Focusing cross-fire applicator for ultrasonic hyperthermia of tumors}}}, doi = {{10.1016/j.ultras.2006.07.004}}, volume = {{44, Supplement}}, year = {{2006}}, } @inbook{7549, abstract = {{The current situation of ad hoc development of Web applications reminds us of the software development practices of the 1960s, before it was realized that the development of applications required more than programming expertise. This book counteracts this situation by giving a comprehensive, practice-oriented and thorough insight into the new discipline of Web Engineering. The text highlights the need to examine and re-use the body of knowledge found within software engineering. It demonstrates how to use that knowledge within the Web environment, in order to achieve a highly disciplined and methodological means of producing Web-based software, putting emphasize on current practices, experiences and pitfalls. The book demonstrates the distinctions between software engineering and Web engineering, for instance, the shorter lead times that Web engineering has compared to its software counterpart, whilst also demonstrating the rapid prototyping and agile methods of development needed to meet these criteria. The book covers important topics of Web Engineering, including requirements analysis, design, architectures, technologies, test, operation and maintenance; this is complemented by in-depth knowledge about Web project management and process issues as well as important quality aspects of Web applications like usability, performance and security. An overview of Semantic Web concepts points the way to the development of future Web applications.}}, author = {{Engels, Gregor and Lohmann, Marc and Wagner, Annika}}, booktitle = {{Web Engineering: The Discipline of Systematic Development of Web Applications}}, editor = {{Kappel, B.

However, although the main Grid mechanisms are already developed or are currently addressed by tremendous research effort, the Grid environment still suffers from a low acceptance in different user communities. Beside difficulties regarding an intuitive and comfortable resource access, various problems related to the reliability and the Quality-of-Service while using the Grid exist. Users should be able to rely, that their jobs will have certain priority at the remote Grid site and that they will be finished upon the agreed time regardless of any provider problems. Therefore, QoS issues have to be considered in the Grid middleware but also in the local resource management systems at the Grid sites. However, most of the currently used resource management systems are not suitable for SLAs, as they do not support resource reservation and do not offer mechanisms for job checkpointing/migration respectively. The latter are mandatory for Grid providers as rescue anchor in case of system failures or system overload.
