Distributed Information Services in Physics
No full textThe concept of distributed information services maintained by a distributed work force for scientific information is described. Realizations and experiences for Physics (since 1995), Marine Sciences, and dissertation theses in physics are presented. Technically the information is gathered from the local web servers of the worldwide distributed research institutes and departments, by distributed Harvest-gatherers, under the control of national learned societies or regional other institutions. Queries are answered by a network of mirrors of Harvest-brokers. For PhysNet, a Charter sets the rules to assure a noncommercial, free full-text access service, under the control of the set of national national learned societies involved, but unbiased to any single one

Interview with Jens Zimmermann: Author of ‘Hermeneutics: A Very Short Introduction’
No full textDr. Jens Zimmermann is a German-Canadian philosopher and J.I. Packer Professor of Theology at Regent College. As the author of Hermeneutics: A Very Short Introduction, he held a lecture titled “Gadamer, Ricoeur and the Future of Philosophical Hermeneutics” at SFU. Hosted by the Department of World Languages and Literatures, the lecture focused on how we can use the art of hermeneutics to interpret literature and our identities of being human
The Prayer of Philosopher Stjepan Zimmermann
No full textRad je podijeljen na dva dijela. U prvom dijelu objavljen je tekst Zimmermannove molitve, koja je prvo objavljena u knjizi Putem života iz 1945. godine. U drugom dijelu rada donosi se kratka analiza pojedinih elemenata ranije spomenute molitve. Ta se analiza temelji na njegovim filozofskim tekstovima i misaonim traženjima: čovjek u potrazi za smislom života; Isus Krist kao Božji objavitelj; Isus Krist kao povijesna osoba; duša; spoznaja Boga preko stvorenoga svijeta; istinitost kršćanske objave. U zaključku rada naglašava se da Zimmermann nije teološki, nego prvotno filozofski pisac, ali Zimmermannova molitva pokazatelj je da u njegovim tekstovima postoji i teološka strana, koju je potrebno detaljnije istražiti kako bi se dobio zaokružen pogled na njegovo cjelokupno stvaralaštvo.This paper is divided into two main sections. In the introduction, the author draws our attention to the fact that Zimmermann is not unknown in Croatian philosophical and cultural circles. Following the introduction is the first section entitled “Zimmermann’s Prayer”. It contains the text of the prayer itself which was published in The Way of Life in 1945. In the works of Zimmermann certain prayers are also mentioned which were written by other authors, such as Giovanni Papini. The second section of the paper, entitled “An Analysis of Zimmermann’s Prayer”, provides a brief study of certain elements contained therein. The analysis is based on his philosophical texts and mental pursuits of topics such as man in search of the meaning of life, Jesus Christ as revelator of God, Jesus Christ as a historical figure, the soul, knowledge of God through the created world and the truth of Christian revelation. As regards the Zimmermann prayer, its starting point and foundation is the historical figure of Jesus Christ who is also the very center of his prayer. Furthermore, it is important for Zimmermann to prove that man can transcend earthly cognition (materialism) by means of his reason, and that he has the potential for super–experiential cognition (metaphysical cognition). God is revealed to man in Jesus Christ who is the mediator of the revelation. God’s revelation is a certainty, and man has no need to doubt its truth. The conclusion of the paper emphasizes that Zimmermann is not a theological but primarily a philosophical writer; however, Zimmermann’s prayer is an indication that there is a theological side to his texts which needs to be explored in more detail
On large groups of symmetries of finite graphs embedded in spheres
No full textLet G be a finite group acting orthogonally on a pair
(S^d, \Gamma) where \Gamma is a finite, connected graph of genus g>1
embedded in a sphere S^d of dimension d. The 3-dimensional case d=3 has
recently been considered in a paper by C. Wang, S. Wang, Y. Zhang and the present
author where for each genus g>1 the maximum order of a G-action on a pair
(S^3, \Gamma) is determined and the corresponding graphs \Gamma are classified.
In the present paper we consider arbitrary dimensions d and prove that the order of
G is bounded above by a polynomial of degree d/2 in g if d is even and of
degree (d+1)/2 if d is odd; moreover the degree d/2 is best possible in even
dimensions d
Der Schuldfähige Mensch: Ein integratives Therapieziel?
No full textDiese Arbeit reflektiert die Schuldfähigkeit des Menschen, fasst sie als eine Kompetenz auf und schlägt sie als Integratives Therapieziel vor. Die Bearbeitung des neurotischen Schuldgefühls wird vorausgesetzt, jedoch die „existenzielle Schuld“ als eine Grundthematik der therapeutischen Praxis ins Zentrum der Betrachtung gerückt. Der Autor stellt verschiedene philosophische und psychotherapeutische Konzepte existenzieller Schuld vor und diskutiert den sich abzeichnenden Schuldbegriff unter dem Aspekt seiner “Angemessenheit“. Nach der Skizze einiger Anthropologien der Schuld werden Ansätze der Integrativen Therapie daraufhin befragt, was sie zum Thema beitragen. Bubers dialogisches Prinzip wird dabei kritisch herangezogen und Petzolds persönlichkeitstheoretische und entwickungspsychologische Fundierungen werden reflektiert, das Intersubjektivitäts- und Ko-respondenzmodell, die Gewissensarbeit, der Ansatz der desillusionierten Anthropologie und das therapeutische Instrument des Lebenspanoramas. Die Arbeit stößt dabei vor zu einem erweiterten Begriff der Schuldfähigkeit als reifem Modus des Menschseins. Die Hinweise zur Praxeologie haben einen Menschen vor Augen, der therapeutisch darin bestärkt wird, Verantwortung für sein Leben zu übernehmen und seine existenzielle Schuld als personale Schuld anzunehmen. Er kann dies umso mehr, als er sich (auch in seiner Schuld) angenommen und geliebt weiß. Die Arbeit wird hier erneut eingestellt, weil sie in der Zeit der Pandemie mit ihren vielfältigen ethischen Dilemmata eine besondere Relevanz hat.This paper reflects the human ability to bear guilt and it proposes this competence as a therapeutical aim of integrative therapy. „Existential guilt“ as a basic topic of therapeutic practice is placed in the center of reflection, the problem of neurotic feelings of guilt is not treated in depth. The author introduces different philosophical and psychotherapeutic concepts of existencial guilt and discusses the ernerging concept of“ guilt“ under the aspect of its „appropriateness“. After scetching some anthropologies of guilt, positions of integrative therapy are questioned concerning their contribution to the topic. Buber’s dialogical principle is consulted, as is Petzold’s basic theory of personality and developmental psychology, his model of intersubjectivity and correspondence, his work on concience and his idea of a disillusionized anthropology. The paper advances towards an extended concept of the capability to bear guilt as a mature mode of being human. The references to praxeology have a vision of a human being able forced to take responsibility for his life and to accept his existencial guilt as personal guilt. He can do this even more, since he knows himself with his guilt to be accepted and loved. This text is posted here anew because it is of particular relevance in the time of the pandemic with its diverse ethical dilemmas.https://www.fpi-publikation.de/polyloge/06-2021-zimmermann-gustav-2003-der-schuldfaehige-mensch-ein-integratives-therapieziel/peerReviewedpublishedVersio
From basic survival analytic theory to a non-standard application
No full textGeorg Zimmermann provides a mathematically rigorous treatment of basic survival analytic methods. His emphasis is also placed on various questions and problems, especially with regard to life expectancy calculations arising from a particular real-life dataset on patients with epilepsy. The author shows both the step-by-step analyses of that dataset and the theory the analyses are based on. He demonstrates that one may face serious and sometimes unexpected problems, even when conducting very basic analyses. Moreover, the reader learns that a practically relevant research question may look rather simple at first sight. Nevertheless, compared to standard textbooks, a more detailed account of the theory underlying life expectancy calculations is needed in order to provide a mathematically rigorous framework. Contents Regression Models for Survival Data Model Checking Procedures Life Expectancy Target Groups Researchers, lecturers, and students in the fields of mathematics and statistics Academics and experts working in the life sciences, especially in the medical field The Author Georg Zimmermann is a PhD student at the University of Salzburg and research associate at Christian-Doppler-Klinik, Salzburg
