In our view, its main advantages are the following: It is completely web based. It combines all technologies, data, software agents and human agents involved in the monitoring and customer interaction process. It can be used for messages written in any natural language. Although the prototype of SCM is designed for classifying and processing messages about mobile-phone related problems in social networks, SCM can easily be adapted to other text types such as discussion board posts, blogs or emails. Unlike comparable systems, SCM uses linguistic technologies to classify messages and recognize paraphrases of product names. For two reasons, product name paraphrasing plays a major role in SCM: First, product names typically have many, sometimes hundreds or thousands of intralingual paraphrases. Secondly, product names have interlingual paraphrases: The same products are often called or spelt differently in different countries and/or languages. By mapping product name variants to an international canonical form, SCM allows for answering questions like Which statements are made about this mobile phone in which languages/in which social networks/in which countries/...? The SCM product name paraphrasing engine is designed in such a way that standard variants are assigned automatically, regular variants are assigned semiautomatically and idiosyncratic variants can be added manually. With this and similar features we try to realize our philosophy of simplicity, modularity and flexibility: Whatever can be done automatically is done automatically. But manual intervention is always possible and easy and it does not conflict in any way with the automatic functions of SCM.}}, author = {{Schuster, Jörg and Lee, Yeong Su and Kobothanassi, Despina and Bargel, Matthias and Geierhos, Michaela}}, booktitle = {{International Conference on Information Society (i-Society 2011)}}, isbn = {{978-1-61284-148-9}}, keywords = {{Social Media Business Integration, Contact Center Application Support, Monitoring Social Conversations, Social Customer Interaction Management, Monitoring, Software Agents}}, location = {{London, UK}}, pages = {{153--158}}, publisher = {{IEEE}}, title = {{{SCM - A Simple, Modular and Flexible Customer Interaction Management System}}}, year = {{2011}}, } @article{1125, abstract = {{Since customers first share their problems with a social networking community before directly addressing a company, social networking sites such as Facebook, Twitter, MySpace or Foursquare will be the interface between customer and company. For this reason, it is assumed that social networks will evolve into a common communication channel – not only between individuals but also between customers and companies. However, social networking has not yet been integrated into customer interaction management (CIM) tools. In general, a CIM application is used by the agents in a contact centre while communicating with the customers. Such systems handle communication across multiple different channels, such as e-mail, telephone, Instant Messaging, letter etc. What we do now is to integrate social networking into CIM applications by adding another communication channel. This allows the company to follow general trends in customer opinions on the Internet, but also record two-sided communication for customer service management and the company’s response will be delivered through the customer’s preferred social networking site.}}, author = {{Geierhos, Michaela}}, issn = {{17982340}}, journal = {{Journal of Advances in Information Technology}}, keywords = {{Social Media Business Integration, Multichannel Customer Interaction Management, Contact Centre Application Support}}, number = {{4}}, pages = {{222--233}}, publisher = {{Engineering and Technology Publishing (ETPub)}}, title = {{{Customer Interaction 2.0: Adopting Social Media as Customer Service Channel}}}, doi = {{10.4304/jait.2.4.222-233}}, volume = {{2}}, year = {{2011}}, } @inproceedings{4707, author = {{Janiesch, Christian and Matzner, Martin and Müller, Oliver}}, booktitle = {{Lecture Notes in Computer Science}}, isbn = {{9783642230585}}, issn = {{03029743}}, keywords = {{Reference architecture, business activity management, business process analytics, business process management, complex event processing}}, title = {{{A blueprint for event-driven business activity management}}}, doi = {{10.1007/978-3-642-23059-2_4}}, year = {{2011}}, } @techreport{47091, author = {{Löschel, Andreas and Reif, Christiane and Kesternich, Martin and Koesler, Simon and Osberghaus, Daniel and Korioth, Stefan}}, issn = {{0043-6275}}, keywords = {{Business, Management and Accounting (miscellaneous)}}, pages = {{712--716}}, publisher = {{Wirtschaftsdienst 91(10), 712-716}}, title = {{{Versteigerungserlöse aus CO2-Zertifikaten im Spannungsfeld zwischen Bund und Ländern}}}, doi = {{10.1007/s10273-011-1289-4}}, volume = {{91(10)}}, year = {{2011}}, } @inproceedings{37067, abstract = {{IP-XACT is a well accepted standard for the exchange of IP components at Electronic System and Register Transfer Level.

We show how to overcome this by introducing new components to the object model and system states defining a dynamic semantics of OCL. In order to give precise rules that determine when the current system state has to be updated according to a change in the referred UML model, we make use of adequate mathematical means, namely Abstract State Machines (ASMs).

With the increasing acceptance of grid middleware like Globus, new requirements for the underlying local resource management systems arise. Features like advanced reservation or quality of service are needed to implement high level functions like co-allocation. However it is difficult to realize these features with a resource management system based on the queuing concept since it considers only the present resource usage. In this paper we present an approach which closes this gap. By assigning start times to each resource request, a complete schedule is planned. Advanced reservations are now easily possible. Based on this planning approach functions like diffuse requests, automatic duration extension, or service level agreements are described. We think they are useful to increase the usability, acceptance and performance of HPC machines.
