Objektorientierte Graphendarstellung von Simulink-Modellen zur einfachen Analyse und Transformation
In software and hardware development MATLAB and Simulink are used to model
cyber physical systems for many years, , especially in automation technology
and the automotive industry. Compliance with the required product quality and
project efficiency is facilitated by analyzing and transforming Simulink
models. The existing API, provided by MATLAB is only suitable for programmatic
changing of Simulink models. We show using our own tool which is used in
industry, how such as a Simulink model can be edited more easily. For this
purpose the model, is converted to an object-oriented class structure that
provides convenient access and editing APIs and allows applying well-known
algorithms and analyses from graph theory directly. It is also designed as a
bi-directional tool, so it transforms a Simulink model into a graph
representation and vice versa.

In der Software- und Hardwareentwicklung wird seit Jahren verst\"arkt MATLAB
und Simulink f\"ur die Modellierung von cyberphysikalischen Systemen,
insbesondere in der Automatisierungstechnik und der Automobilindustrie
eingesetzt. Die Einhaltung der notwendigen Produktqualit\"at und
Projekteffizienz wird durch Analysen und Transformationen auf Simulink-Modellen
erleichtert. Die bestehende, von MATLAB bereitgestellte, API ist f\"ur die
programmatische Ver\"anderung von Simulink-Modellen nur bedingt geeignet. Wir
zeigen deshalb anhand eines eigenen, im industriellen Einsatz befindlichen
Werkzeugs, wie ein Simulink-Modell leichter bearbeitet werden kann. Dazu wird
es in eine objektorientierte Klassenstruktur \"uberf\"uhrt, die einen
komfortablen Zugang und Bearbeitungs-APIs bietet und es erlaubt bekannte
Algorithmen und Analysen aus der Graphentheorie direkt anzuwenden. Das Werkzeug
ist bidirektional entworfen, es transformiert also ein Simulink-Modell in eine
Graphenrepresentation und umgekehrt.Comment: 10 pages in German, 7 figures. AALE 2013 in Stralsund Germany, 10.

AâDirtyâ Footprint: Macroinvertebrate diversity in Amazonian Anthropic Soils
International audienceAmazonian rainforests, once thought to be pristine wilderness, are increasingly known to have been widely inhabited, modified, and managed prior to European arrival, by human populations with diverse cultural backgrounds. Amazonian Dark Earths (ADEs) are fertile soils found throughout the Amazon Basin, created by pre-Columbian societies with sedentary habits. Much is known about the chemistry of these soils, yet their zoology has been neglected. Hence, we characterized soil fertility, macroinvertebrate communities, and their activity at nine archeological sites in three Amazonian regions in ADEs and adjacent reference soils under native forest (young and old) and agricultural systems. We found 673 morphospecies and, despite similar richness in ADEs (385 spp.) and reference soils (399 spp.), we identified a tenacious pre-Columbian footprint, with 49% of morphospecies found exclusively in ADEs. Termite and total macroinvertebrate abundance were higher in reference soils, while soil fertility and macroinvertebrate activity were higher in the ADEs, and associated with larger earthworm quantities and biomass. We show that ADE habitats have a unique pool of species, but that modern land use of ADEs decreases their populations, diversity, and contributions to soil functioning. These findings support the idea that humans created and sustained high-fertility ecosystems that persist today, altering biodiversity patterns in Amazonia
