abstract = {{The classic mapping metaphor posits that children learn a word by mapping it onto a concept of an object or event. However, we believe that a mapping metaphor cannot account for word learning, because even though children focus attention on objects, they do not necessarily remember the connection between the word and the referent unless it is framed pragmatically, that is, within a task. Our theoretical paper proposes an alternative mechanism for word learning. Our main premise is that word learning occurs as children accomplish a goal in cooperation with a partner. We follow Bruner's (1983) idea and further specify pragmatic frames as the learning units that drive language acquisition and cognitive development. These units consist of a sequence of actions and verbal behaviors that are co-constructed with a partner to achieve a joint goal. We elaborate on this alternative, offer some initial parametrizations of the concept, and embed it in current language learning approaches.}},

abstract = {{Abstract
When looking at seminal works in contemporary literary criticism (exemplary: Martinez/Scheffel 2012), it is apparent that the subject of “time”, or, “the representation of time”, receives a great deal of significance. Regarding the ontogenesis of literary research discourse over the past 50 years, Käte Hamburger’s “The Logic of Poetry” (original “Die Logik der Dichtung”, 1957) is a work that has fundamentally shaped the research discourse. But not only within the field of literary studies has the subject of “tense and narration” has been received and discussed – also the field of linguistics also demonstrates an intensive engagement with the subject of narration (cf. e. g. Weinrich 1964, Ehlich 1980) and tense. For example, Rolf Thieroffs monograph “The finite Verb in German: Tense – Mood – Distance” (original “Das finite Verb im Deutschen: Tempus – Modus – Distanz”, 1992) elaborates a conceptualisation of the German temporal system with reference to Weinrich’s representation of time in fiction and non-fiction texts (cf. Thieroff 1992, 298). This contribution joins at the interface between linguistic research on tenses and literary research on narration. The aim is to show that there is an interaction between choice of tense and narrative context, or, in other words: the use of different tenses activates different states of consciousness, and thereby different ‘forms’ of narration are created. The latter are captured from empirical data arising from language acquisition and speech genesis as well as, in accordance with Iser (1991) and Sartre (1940/1994), not in a dichotomic fashion but as a trias-system, and are opened for discussion. The remodeling does not regard the two poles of “everyday narration” and “literary narration” as contrasting, but rather as a continuum, which can show transitions relative to the genre of the text and the speech competence of the narrator.}},

The critical discussion of current teaching and research practices shows that the realm of pronunciation has benefitted little from debates on intercultural language learning. In order to link the teaching of pronunciation with learner needs in intercultural encounters, this article develops the concept of pronunciation‐as‐language. The theoretical exploration of this concept is supported by a narrative analysis of study-abroad learners’ accounts, contrasting learners’ perceptions of teaching practices with the complex role pronunciation plays in second language‐mediated interactions. The results underline the importance of pedagogical approaches that encourage the critical reflection on and creative use of pronunciation beyond structural elements and native‐speaker

From among 77 interviews conducted in two urban areas in Canada, we discuss instances of both the interactional use of and metalinguistic comments on forms of address. Our analysis is largely guided by conversation analysis and interactional sociolinguistics (e.g. Goodwin & Heritage 1990). Using Clyne, Norrby and Warren’s (2009) model of address as a backdrop, we investigate the construction of group identity and group socialization through the lens of positioning theory (e.g. van Langenhove & Harré 1993; Dailey-O’Cain & Liebscher 2009). This combination of analytical tools can explain shifts in both usage of and attitudes toward the T/V distinction that cannot be explained through language attrition arguments alone.}},

Unter Informationsextraktion verstehen wir die automatisierte Analyse von Dokumenten im Hinblick auf das Entdecken und Normalisieren von semantisch interessanten Entitäten und deren Eigenschaften.
Das Hauptgewicht der Arbeit liegt auf sehr detaillierten und umfangreichen linguistischen Grammatiken im Bereich der Beschreibung von Personen und deren Beziehungen zu anderen relevanten Entitäten (z.B. Organisationen, Orte, Datums- und Zeitangaben) in Texten. Neben den öffentlichen und privaten Eigenschaften von Personen (Geburtsdatum, Nationalität etc.) sollen vor allem alle biographisch relevanten Attribute aus Texten extrahiert werden können. Dazu gehören in erster Linie berufliche Werdegänge, Anstellungsverhältnisse, Rollen in Firmen und ähnliche Eigenschaften. Da alle diese Attribute in unzählbar verschiedenen Formen ausgedrückt werden können, müssen sehr umfangreiche Lexika und sehr detaillierte grammatische Beschreibungen erstellt werden. Dies geschieht hauptsächlich bei der systematischen Evaluierung von Korpora. Je umfangreicher diese sind, desto adäquater werden die erstellten Grammatiken sein. Im Gegensatz zu den heute üblichen statistischen, auf maschinellem Lernen basierenden Verfahren setzen wir auch umfangreiche semi-automatisch erstellte, linguistische Module ein, die dann durch systematische Evaluierung auf Korpora schnell ergänzt und verbessert werden können.
Basierend auf unseren Extraktionsmethoden ist es nun möglich, im Bereich der semantischen Suche deutliche Fortschritte zu machen. Insbesondere Personensuchmaschinen können sich unsere detaillierten Analysemethoden zu Nutze machen, um beispielsweise zu ermitteln, wer in welcher Funktion bei welcher Firma von wann bis wann beschäftigt war.}},

Much effort has been undertaken to employ different aspects of UML for multiple domains, mainly in the area of software systems. Considering the area of electronic design automation, however, we currently see only very few approaches which investigate UML for hardware design and hardware/software co-design. We present an approach for executable UML closing the gap from system specification to its model-based execution on reconfigurable hardware. For this purpose, we present our abstract execution platform (AEP), which is based on a virtual machine running an executable UML subset for embedded software and reconfigurable hardware. This subset combines UML 2.0 classes, state-machines and sequence diagrams for a complete system specification. We describe how these binary encoded UML specifications can be directly executed and give the implementation of such a virtual machine on a Virtex II FPGA. Finally, we present evaluation results comparing the AEP implementation with C code on a C167 microcontroller.}},

This makes their direct execution complex and inefficient.
