A new heuristic for the total tardiness problem with parallel machines
No full textBiskup D, Herrmann J. A new heuristic for the total tardiness problem with parallel machines. Discussion paper / Fakultät für Wirtschaftswissenschaften, Universität Bielefeld. Bielefeld: Universität Bielefeld; 2007.Scheduling jobs against due dates is one of the most important and best examined objectives in scheduling theory and practice. In this paper the parallel machine version of the well-known total tardiness problem is considered. The objective is to minimize the total tardiness of the jobs, while for all jobs an individual due date is given. The single machine version has been proven to be NP-hard, hence it is unlikely to find polynomially bounded optimization algorithms. Consequently, we concentrate on developing an efficient heuristic. Our extensive computational results confirm that our new heuristic is capable to deliver near optimal results
Journalismus leicht verständlich : Berichterstattung für Menschen mit eingeschränkter Literalität
No full textLeichte Sprache im Journalismus kann den Zugang zu Informationen erleichtern und vereinfachen. Unser Arbeitspapier von Wissenschaftler*innen der Katholischen Universität Eichstätt-Ingolstadt zeigt, wie verständlichere Medienangebote die gesellschaftliche Teilhabe von Menschen mit geringer Literalität verbessern können.
Die Untersuchung basiert auf Interviews mit Betroffenen und liefert konkrete Ansätze, wie Medieninhalte zugänglicher und inklusiver gestaltet werden können

Erfassung motorische Basiskompetenzen in der fünften Jahrgangsstufe
No full textMotorische Basiskompetenzen werden als nachhaltig erlernbare und funktionale Leistungsdispositionen verstanden. Sie gewährleisten eine basale Handlungsfähigkeit im Sport, indem Schüler (1) Sport und Bewegung qualifiziert ausführen können. Aufbauend auf dem MOBAK-1 und MOBAK-3 Testinstrument (ausführlich Herrmann & Gerlach, 2014; Herrmann, 2015) wird das MOBAK-5 Testinstrument für die fünfte Schulklasse vorgestellt, welche mittels unterrichtsnaher Testaufgaben die Kompetenzbereiche Sich-Bewegen und Etwas-Bewegen abdeckt. Die daraus gewonnenen Informationen können neben der Evaluation des Sportunterrichts dazu genutzt werden, eine gute Passung zwischen den unterschiedlichen Schülervoraussetzungen und den Lerngelegenheiten herzustellen.
Basic motor competencies are defined as a functional level of competence which can be learned and retained. Such competencies provide a guarantee of a student’s elementary ability for students to actively participate in sports. Based on the test instruments MOBAK-1 and MOBAK-3 (see Herrmann and Gerlach, 2014; Herrmann, 2015), the author presents the adaptation for fifth graders (MOBAK-5), which uses test items closely related to the curriculum to cover the areas of competence defined as “self-movement” and “object movement.” The recorded data can be used to both evaluate the physical education class as well as better coordinate the students’ varying prerequisites and learning opportunities
Preface. World's new princedoms: critical remarks on claimed alternatives by new life
No full text[Extract] The way we view the world, envisage possibilities for social change and strive for improvement in the quality of life is highly complex, with significant challenges in rapidly changing landscapes of the 21st century.
This book, edited by Herrmann and with contributions from Earles and Kratzwald, revisits, with fresh insight, key sociological, philosophical, political and cultural theoretical frameworks of relevance to contemporary globalised world. The book is thought-provoking in its central thesis which posits that there is a tendency for the 'refeudalisation' of production and reproduction and where economics is enmeshed with all elements of social life. Herrmann takes us on a journey of revisiting the concept of citizenship, that all important, and yet unclear concept We are confronted with how citizenship is redefined in the face of modern globalised capitalism where the state is an instrument of global economics. The author visits key questions of rights, inclusion-exclusion within bounded territoriality and spatial boundaries in the context of globalisation where borders are porous. The notion of citizenship calls into question its inextricable links to the nation-state. Herrmann challenges us to think through the complexity of this relationship including the technocratic nature of contemporary nation-states, what is the 'common good' and the relevance of collective rights. He also presents a critique of the nation state across the different historical stages of society (from slave society to global capitalist) and how the different stages of the nation state are characterised (i) on power, (ii) territoriality and (iii) on how it is related to economic structures and class division/division of labour
