Service Oriented Architectures (SOA) have become the de-facto standard for creating large and complex software systems in enterprise environments. While the SOA paradigm of combining loosely coupled distributed software services adds flexibility to software systems (e.g., late binding to replace services during run time), new challenges arise. One important aspect is getting the split services together to a working unit. BPEL is one way to achieve this goal. New software services for a new business requirement can be composed by using existing services. As in every other software development these new components must be tested to ensure software quality. For testing local software there is a wide range of different concepts like Mockup objects to support the testing process. For distributed software tests there is still a lack of such supporting concepts and tools. This work will cover this area providing a tool for the automatic generation of testbeds for business processes to provide an environment for testing.

Phased array ultrasonic testing (PAUT) techniques are widely used for the non-destructive testing (NDT) of austenitic welds to find defects like cracks. However, the propagation of ultrasound waves through the austenitic material is intricate due to its inhomogeneous and anisotropic nature. Such a characteristic leads beam path distorted which causes the signal to be misinterpreted. By employing a reference block which was cutout from the mockup of which the structure is a dissimilar metal weld (DMW), a new method of PAUT named as Referencing Delay Law Technique (RDLT) has been introduced. With the RDLT, full matrix capture (FMC) was used for data acquisition. To reconstruct the images, total focusing method (TFM) was used. After the focal laws were calculated, PAUT was then performed. As a result, the flaws are more precisely positioned with significantly increased signal-to-noise ratio (SNR).

The year is 2007, the fiftieth anniversary of the Space Age. Space shuttle Discovery is about o dock at the first permanent U. S. space station, which author Dick Lattimer called Friendship. In all but name, the space station depicted in these pages is based on NASA plans. To help you project yourself on board, Lattimer has created a fictional crew, including three rookie crew members-doctoral candidates who have been chosen to do special work on their theses. By viewing the space station through their eyes, you'll learn about the important work to be done there. Friendship reflects existing technology and projected plans. As part of his extensive research, Lattimer, along with his son, illustrator Michael Lattimer, had the unique opportunity to spend several different days aboard the space station mockup at Huntsville, Alabama. Inevitably, there will be design modification. But life aboard out first permanent space station will probably resemble life on space station Friendship. In these pages you'll visit the many elements of the space station, including the habitation modules, the animal research facility, and the 'industrial park.' You'll learn about the modules of the European Space Agency and of Japan, and about the mobile servicing station, the next-generation Canadarm. As the staff membered discuss their work with the 'rookies,' you'll find the answers to their questions like these: How will they handle emergencies? How will they get supplies? What kinds of R7D work will they do? How will they use the Hubble Telescope? How will they cope with isolation and confinement?

Masterarbeit aus dem Jahr 2010 im Fachbereich Informatik - Angewandte Informatik, Note: 1.0, Universität Augsburg, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Das Aussehen und der Arbeits-Workflow einer grafischen Oberfläche (engl. Graphical User Interface - GUI) entscheiden oft, ob eine Software von Benutzern akzeptiert wird. Je benutzerfreundlicher die GUI ist, desto besser schätzt der Benutzer die Qualität der Software ein. Deshalb muss die grafische Bedienoberfläche frühzeitig an den Wünschen des Kunden angepasst werden. Dabei ist es wichtig, dass nicht nur das Layout der GUI mit dem Kunden abgestimmt wird, sondern auch der Arbeits-Workflow der Anwendung. Dieser Prozess findet in der Spezifikationsphase statt. Es wird meist das Layout der Oberfläche auf Papier oder mittels eines Programms gezeichnet und der Workflow nur textuell beschrieben. Doch wäre es sicherlich voteilhaft, schon beim Entwurf der GUI zu sehen, wie sich die Software später 'anfühlt'. Dabei können MockUp-Konzepte helfen, indem ein MockUp der grafischen Oberfläche erstellt wird. Mit einem GUI-MockUp kann der Kunde den Workflow der Anwendung besser nachvollziehen und frühzeitig Anforderungen erkennen, welche in statischen Konzepten meist übersehen werden. Ein Beispiel hierfür wäre die Fenstergröße, die von der Bildschirmauflösung abhängig ist. Mit einem MockUp könnte getestet werden, ob die Fenstergröße zur Bildschirmauflösung des Kundenrechners passt. Deshalb werden in dieser Arbeit MockUp-Konzepte in den Spezifikationsprozess der Capgemini sd&m AG integriert. Zur Erstellung von MockUps können sogenannte MockUp-Tools verwendet werden. Um ein geeignetes MockUp-Tool zu finden, wird eine Marktanalyse durchgeführt und mittels eines eigenen Entscheidungsverfahrens das passende Tool ausgewählt. Zur Erstellung der Spezifikation wird in vielen Softwareprojekten ein Modellierungswerkzeug eingesetzt. Aus diesem Grund wird in der vorliegenden Arbeit eine Architektur zur Integration eines MockUp-Tools in ein Modellierungswerkzeug entwickelt und implementiert.

Java Entwickler und gutes Oberflächen Design? In der Vergangenheit eher die Ausnahme, mit Adobe Flash Builder 4 kann die Ausnahme jedoch zur Regel gemacht werden. Bisher war Flex Builder der Ausgangspunkt für die Erstellung von Adobe RIAs mit Java Backend, Design und Entwicklung lagen somit im Aufgabenbereich des Entwicklers. Mit Flash Builder 4 wird der Entwicklungsprozess um einen Schritt ergänzt, Catalyst heisst das Bindeglied zwischen Designer und Entwickler, das es ermöglicht, eine strikte Trennung der Aufgabenbereiche umzusetzen - und somit den klassischen 'Flex-Fingerabdruck' aus der Anwendung zu entfernen. Denn Komponentenlimitierungen und Vorgaben gehören zukünftig der Vergangenheit an. Das Buch führt Sie in die Erstellung von Rich Client Lösungen mit Adobe Catalyst, Flash Builder 4 und Java ein. Dabei wird jeder Schritt des Entwicklungsprozess durchlaufen und mit zahlreichen Beispielen unterlegt. Abschliessend sind Sie in der Lage sowohl die Designer- als auch Entwicklerperspektive bei der Umsetzung von Flex Unternehmens Anwendungen einzunehmen.

The legendary Bernard Manning comperes while fellow stand-up veteran Colin Crompton is ‘Mr Chairman’ at the Wheeltappers and Shunters Social Club – the friendliest working men’s club in the North. Amid the boozing, bingo and committee announcements, the show features rising stars and evergreen entertainers, contemporary acts and international stars – and the occasional musical oddity. For the first time on home-video format, this release presents the complete second series, in which Roy Orbison, P.J. Proby, Marty Wilde, Russ Conway, Matt Monro, and dancer, choreographer and UFO star Peter Gordeno can be found rubbing shoulders with the Amazing Bavarian Stompers and some 'exotic' dancers! Although the ‘club’ was a humorously authentic studio mock-up, this forgotten treasure of 1970s light entertainment programming – building upon the highly successful live-audience format of The Comedians – brought the quickfire comedy, musical variety and convivial atmosphere of a typical Clubland concert night to a national audience. Providing a showcase for several future household names, Wheeltappers and Shunters Social Club proved a ratings winner between 1974 and 1977; this second series was first screened in 1974 and the set also includes that year’s New Year’s Special.

In 'Professional Orchestration: A Practical Handbook - From Piano to Strings,' conductor/composer Joseph Wagner, Founder of the Boston Civic Symphony and former Composer-in-Residence at Pepperdine University, teaches you applied orchestration by demonstrating 30 different techniques within 'The Reference Chart of Keyboard Idioms' for transcribing piano parts and piano devices to the string section. Techniques covered include Broken Intervals, Broken Chords, Melodic Lines and Figurations, Implied Bass Parts, Single Note Interval and Chord Repetitions, 2-3 Part Homophonic Music, Spacing Problems, Contrast Problems, Voice Leading, Obbligato, Antiphonal Effects, Tremolo Types, and Dance Forms. Designed for either personal or classroom use. Included in 'From Piano to Strings' is the complete piano solo and separate string ensemble adaption of Grieg's 'Holberg Suite' demonstrating how these techniques are applied and work in real practice. The Appendix contains a bonus String Ensemble template for you to copy and do your studies with and the 'Chart of String Unisons' to help you work out common string combinations. Available for separate purchase is the 'Workbook' with audio files that gives you dozens of homework examples to orchestrate. The 'Workbook' is used with all three handbooks in the series - starting with 'From Piano to Strings,' then 'From Piano to Woodwinds,' and finally 'From Piano to Orchestra.' 'From Piano to Strings' builds both orchestration and composition skills for live performance, but also develops MIDI mockup and recording skills. Companion titles for this series available for separate purchase are Alexander Publishing's 'Professional Orchestration Volume 1: Solo Instruments and Instrumentation Notes' and 'Volume 2A: Orchestrating the Melody Within the String Section.'

The design of aesthetic products is a process that requires a set of activities where digital models and physical mockups play an important role in the design process. Typically, virtual objects are modified (and built) several times before reaching the desired design, increasing the development time and, consequently, the final product cost. Moreover, each time a physical mockup is required for evaluating the product, the design process halts, waiting for the construction of the physical prototype. However, while the other phases of the design process only take a few minutes or hours, the physical mockup production requires more time that can range from days to weeks, causing a bigger impact in the design process. The haptic-based immersive system that we propose here will reduce the number of physical mockups during the design process allowing designers to perform all the phases of the product design process (concept, modelling, visual and physical evaluation and modification) continuously and without any interruption.
