Over the decades of practical application and research, various specializations and forms of the Systems Engineering approach have developed, but there has so far been a lack of an overarching context and positioning in meaningful stages for the introduction of Systems Engineering in companies. For this reason, this research will systematize common Systems Engineering approaches and bring them together in a stage model for Systems Engineering.

  abstract     = {{his article describes a new student-based approach to Decoding and Disrupting. This approach consists of an educational programme that works with a multidisciplinary group of undergraduate students, so-called Culture Fellows. In the programme, the students learn about theories on disciplinary cultures and their practices, Decoding the Disciplines, and communication. The programme focuses on the implicitness of disciplinary practices and how to explore them, i.e., it seeks to address the importance of making disciplinary practices, norms, and values more accessible to students. Within the programme, the Culture Fellows use a student-based variant of the Decoding the Disciplines Paradigm that we call ‘Culture Quest’. The Culture Quest supplies students with the tools to question, explore, and decode their respective disciplines and practices. Disciplinary practices often remain implicit because lecturers, with their wealth of experience and expertise in their discipline, may be operationally blind and thus no longer aware of the fact that certain practices might need to be explained. This lack of explanation or explicitness can lead to students feeling bewildered, confused or puzzled. The Culture Fellows and in particular the Culture Quest can encourage dialogue about and exploration of disciplinary cultures and their practices and can thus allow students to grasp the implicit cultural norms and expectations within their respective disciplines more clearly. The Culture Fellows and the Culture Quest provide students – and maybe even lecturers – with opportunities to engage with and reflect on teaching and learning strategies and practices.}},

  abstract     = {{With the rise of multimodal AI tools, such as DALL-E, Midjourney, or Stable
Diffusion, it has never been easier and faster to produce compelling fashion
images. While the proliferation of AI-generated fashion images can be
seen as the ultimate triumph of the fashion image over both fashion text
and fashionable garments, this paper critically examines how these images
are produced, what exactly they show, and ultimately, how this impacts our
understanding of fashion. Building on current research on multimodal AI,
specifically text-to-image models, I argue that AI-generated fashion images
are produced through textual means, that is, through “operative ekphrasis”
(Bajohr 2024: 83). This means that the generation of fashion images created
via multimodal AI is based on textual prompts that extract statistically
probable images from a latent space, which, in turn, is the result of previously
indexed and labeled image-text pairs. Because the indexing of images
requires a reduction of complexity, images generated through multimodal
AI are often generic. In the case of fashion images, this is reflected in the lack
of texture and the reproduction of fashion photography’s conventions. As
fashion photography is not necessarily a representation of ‘the world’ or even
fashionable garments, it resembles AI-generated images more than other photographic
genres. AI-generated fashion images are then not images of fashionable
garments, but images about fashion images—a statistically probable permutation
of fashion photographs from the past (cf. Meyer 2023: 108). As such,
AI-generated fashion images are not only the product of a mediated collective
imaginary but also feed back into it. The view on fashion shaped by AI-generated
fashion images is then based on reduction and stylized normativity.}},

  abstract     = {{<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>Lignin, a widely available and renewable organic polymer, has several desirable properties and applications. However, as a by‐product of pulp and paper industry, it is mainly burned for energy. Limited understanding of the complex and heterogeneous structure and a shortage of tailored analysis methods hinder its utilization in higher value applications. This study describes and compares the use of two different static light scattering methods, laser diffraction and small‐angle light scattering (SALS), for studying lignin particle size in suspension. The results from laser diffraction showed that the selected particle concentration and absorption coefficient affect the measured sizes especially for particles &lt;1 µm in diameter. For irregularly shaped particles with broad size distributions, sampling is the most important parameter affecting the results. SALS proved an efficient method for obtaining information on particle aggregation by providing primary particle sizes as well as aggregate sizes. Characterization of samples with spherical particles and narrow size distributions is straightforward with both laser diffraction and SALS, whereas the interpretation of results for more heterogeneous samples is less obvious. Static light scattering methods could make lignin particle size analysis more rapid and automated, thus enhancing lignin valorization, but should be applied carefully to avoid systematic errors.</jats:p>}},

They afford exquisite capabilities for applications in quantum simulation of many-body physics, quantum computation, and sensing. Underlying this development is the technical maturity of generating scalable optical beams, enabled by active components and a high numerical aperture objective. However, such a complex combination of bulk optics outside the vacuum chamber is very sensitive to any vibration and drift. Here, we demonstrate the generation of a 3 × 3 static tweezer array with a single chip-scale multifunctional metasurface element in vacuum, replacing the meter-long free space optics. Fluorescence counts on the camera validate the successful trapping of the atomic ensemble array and showcase a promising strategy for integrated photonics with cold atom systems. The introduction of a polarization independent dual-wavelength metasurface significantly enhances fluorescence collection efficiency while reducing experimental complexity. This approach paves the way for scalable neutral atom platforms and offers a compelling route towards the realization of next generation quantum metasurfaces.}},

  abstract     = {{Anti-Islam and anti-Muslim attitudes are frequently perceived without sufficient differentiation. The absence of a clear distinction between attitudes towards individuals and attitudes towards the religion itself is evident in definitions that conflate (attitudes towards) Islam and Muslims, as well as in the operationalization process where surveys on overtly anti-Muslim attitudes are labelled as measuring anti-Islam attitudes. To explore whether the interchangeable usage of these terms is valid or whether there is empirical evidence supporting the need to differentiate between anti-Islam and anti-Muslim attitudes, an online survey was conducted (n = 497). The results indicate that anti-Islam and anti- Muslim attitudes are statistically distinct constructs that are nevertheless correlated. Furthermore, the study investigates the extent to which variations in the degree of hostile attitudes towards Islam and Muslims can be observed. The findings reveal that Islam is evaluated significantly more negatively than Muslims. In addition, an analysis of free associations related to the terms Islam and Muslims highlights notable differences. Although the respondents oftentimes see Muslims in the context of migration and integration, associations with Muslims tend to be more positive and based on personal experiences and interactions than associations with Islam. Associations with Islam, on the other hand, are characterized by threat and conflict and externalization to foreign countries. These findings have important implications for the theoretical conceptualization of anti- Islam and anti-Muslim attitudes. By differentiating between anti-Islam and anti- Muslim attitudes, it becomes possible to deconstruct these phenomena into their constituent elements and to understand their various dimensions. It is only through such disentanglement that the interconnected nature of anti-Islam and anti-Muslim attitudes can be comprehensively examined and effectively addressed.}},

These models are costly to run with respect to computation and memory requirements. In this work, we propose to build a specialized low-resource classifier for classes pre-defined using text, using a two-stage procedure consisting of zero-shot data set pruning and model compression. First, relevant in-domain data is selected from a source dataset using class label embeddings obtained from a pre-trained CLAP model. This data is then used to distill the audio encoder of a CLAP model. The proposed compression method produces compact audio encoders with slightly reduced accuracy. Note that neither labeled nor unlabeled in-domain audio data is required for its development. We verify by cross-dataset tests that the resulting classifiers are indeed specialized to their task.}},
