Wirtschaftliche Buchproduktion in einem Fachverlag mit Hilfe eines Word-Autorentools als Alternative zur Aufsichtsvorlage unter Berücksichtigung der Aspekte Layout, Technik und Abläufe

Die vorliegende Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit dem Thema »Wirtschaftliche Buchproduktion in einem Fachverlag mit Hilfe eines Word-Autorentools als Alternative zur Aufsichtsvorlage «. Jeder Verlag ist natürlich bemüht seine Bücher so wirtschaftlich wie möglich zu produzieren. Fachverlage, vor allem im wissenschaftlichen Bereich haben aus verschiedenen Gründen auch Titel im Programm, die nur in einer sehr kleinen Aufl age und/ oder für eine spezielle Zielgruppe, die sich aus einem überschaubaren Personenkreis zusammensetzt, produziert werden. Da die Produktionskosten im Vergleich zu den zu erwartenden Erlösen sehr hoch sind, versucht man an den Satzkosten zu sparen und den Titel als Aufsichtsvorlage zu produzieren. Der Begriff Aufsichtsvorlage ist aus der Repro bekannt. Dort spricht man von Durchsichtsvorlagen (Dias) und Aufsichtsvorlagen (Papierabzüge) eines Bildes. Wenn man im Verlag davon spricht, einen Titel als Aufsichtsvorlage zu produzieren, dann ist damit folgende Produktionsweise gemeint: Die Autoren schreiben ihren Text in Word. Der fertige Text wird anschließend allerdings nicht, wie sonst bei der Buchproduktion üblich, in eine Setzerei gegeben, sondern der Autor kümmert sich auch um die Gestaltung seines Textes, er »setzt« quasi selbst. Häufi g steht ihm dazu eine vom Verlag erstellte Word-Dokumentvorlage mit den wichtigsten Formatvorlagen zur Verfügung. Hat der Autor seinen Text inhaltlich und gestalterisch bearbeitet, so druckt er den Text auf einem Laserdrucker aus und schickt diesen Ausdruck an den Verlag. Der Verlag gibt den Ausdruck nach der Korrektur dann in eine Druckerei oder einen Reprobetrieb, wo die einzelnen Seiten eingescannt und auf das gewünschte Format (Endformat des Buches) verkleinert werden. Aus den Scandaten wird anschließend eine PDF-Datei erstellt

Naruszenia praw własności intelektualnej w kontekście kryzysu gospodarczego

Celem niniejszego opracowania było wykazanie związku między kryzysem gospodarczym na rynku oświatowym a rosnącą liczbą naruszeń praw własności intelektualnej. Z obserwacji przykładów naruszeń własności intelektualnej na rynku Unii Europejskiej oraz analizy danych publikowanych przez Komisję Europejską wynika, że ochrona praw własności intelektualnej ma istotne znaczenie dla unijnej gospodarki i jest siłą napędową wzrostu gospodarczego. Skuteczne egzekwowanie praw własności intelektualnej w dobie kryzysu gospodarczego jest szczególnie istotne. Niektóre podróbki, takie jak artykuły spożywcze, kosmetyki i artykuły przeznaczone dla dzieci, produkowane z pominięciem wszelkich uregulowań prawnych, mogą stanowić poważne zagrożenie dla zdrowia i życia obywateli UE

Polish customs authority in the process of improvement the quality of business services

The pursuit of enterprises to achieve economic success in the global market, advanced technologies and innovative methods of management in every area of business, set new directions for the development of service activities of the customs authorities. The aim of this paper is to present the benefits of the implementation of the innovative business services by the Customs Service. Analysis of the reasons of implementation of the modern forms of customs services and characteristics of individual solutions allow to conclude that the flexibility of customs clearance is a source of significant commercial and financial benefits for operators on the international market, and, thereby, an important determinant of the growth of their competitiveness. Moreover, the simplified system of the customs clearances increases the efficiency of the billing and collection of customs duties, thus ensuring regular revenue for the state budget. In this paper, following research methods were used: a descriptive method, an analysis of literature, and statistical inference

A Framework for the Automatic Analysis and Interactive Exploration of Document Aesthetics. Technical Report April 21, 2016

Modern word processing software and typesetting systems such as TeX enable the quick creation of documents of various kinds. Although the quality of the software packages varies, all can produce aesthetically pleasing documents in terms of layout and type setting. Problems typically originate from the large number of parameters which are exposed to the user. These range from simple settings like typeface, font size and column width to more elaborate ones, such as kerning and leading. Most often default values are modified without grasping the consequences for readability and aesthetic appeal of the resulting document.In this paper, we present a system for interactive visualization and exploration of quantifiable aspects of document aesthetics such as alignment, spacing, gray values, but also of image color harmony. This system also allows for comparative analysis of multiple documents and document versions side-by-side. The documents are rated using an extensible and parameterizable plug-in system allowing the user to define a task-specific processing pipeline interactively. The rating is hierarchically organized such that the user can drill down into the different aspects that influence the final score. Our system takes standard document formats such as Adobe PDF or Microsoft XPS as input. Our system serves as a platform for further research on document aesthetics as well as a utility to sensibilize authors for these often underestimated aspects of scientific publishing

Interactive visual analysis of temporal cluster structures

Cluster analysis is a useful method which reveals underlying structures and relations of items after grouping them into clusters. In the case of temporal data, clusters are defined over time intervals where they usually exhibit structural changes. Conventional cluster analysis does not provide sufficient methods to analyze these structural changes, which are, however, crucial in the interpretation and evaluation of temporal clusters. In this paper, we present two novel and interactive visualization techniques that enable users to explore and interpret the structural changes of temporal clusters. We introduce the temporal cluster view, which visualizes the structural quality of a number of temporal clusters, and temporal signatures, which represents the structure of clusters over time. We discuss how these views are utilized to understand the temporal evolution of clusters. We evaluate the proposed techniques in the cluster analysis of mixed lipid bilayers

Proton Spin-Lattice Relaxation in Organic Molecular Solids: Polymorphism and the Dependence on Sample Preparation

We report solid‐state nuclear magnetic resonance 1H spin‐lattice relaxation, single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction, powder X‐ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy, and differential scanning calorimetry in solid samples of 2‐ethylanthracene (EA) and 2‐ethylanthraquinone (EAQ) that have been physically purified in different ways from the same commercial starting compounds. The solid‐state 1H spin‐lattice relaxation is always non‐exponential at high temperatures as expected when CH3 rotation is responsible for the relaxation. The 1H spin‐lattice relaxation experiments are very sensitive to the “several‐molecule” (clusters) structure of these van der Waals molecular solids. In the three differently prepared samples of EAQ, the relaxation also becomes very non‐exponential at low temperatures. This is very unusual and the decay of the nuclear magnetization can be fitted with both a stretched exponential and a double exponential. This unusual result correlates with the powder X‐ray diffractometry results and suggests that the anomalous relaxation is due to crystallites of two (or more) different polymorphs (concomitant polymorphism)

The tetanic depression in fast motor units of mammalian skeletal muscle can be evoked by lengthening of one initial interpulse interval

A lower than expected tetanic force (the tetanic depression) is regularly observed in fast motor units (MUs) when a higher stimulation frequency immediately follows a lower one. The aim of the present study was to determine whether prolongation of only the first interpulse interval (IPI) resulted in tetanic depression. The experiments were carried out on fast MUs of the medial gastrocnemius muscle in cats and rats. The tetanic depression was measured in each case as the force decrease of a tetanus with one IPI prolonged in relation to the tetanic force at the respective constant stimulation frequency. Force depression was observed in all cases studied and was considerably greater in cats. For cats, the mean values of force depression amounted to 28.64% for FR and 10.86% for FF MUs whereas for rats 9.30 and 7.21% for FR and FF motor units, respectively. Since the phenomenon of tetanic depression in mammalian muscle is commonly observed even after a change in only the initial interpulse interval within a stimulation pattern, it can effectively influence processes of force regulation during voluntary activity of a muscle, when motoneurones progressively increase the firing rate
