Our research work wishes to highlight the importance of the relationship between the vocal and physical behaviour of the manager and team motivation. In order to investigate this important relationship, a survey by means of a questionnaire and two field st ...
Poor data quality is responsible for many or even most matching errors in fingerprint recognition systems. It became obvious that particular effort is needed in adaptation of the state-of-the-art minutiae-based fingerprint matching techniques to real-world ...
The resource-based view suggests that firms' heterogeneous resource endowments are important for explaining interfirm performance differences. To date, however, the literature provides little insight on the factors that shape the identification of markets ...
As the focus of environmental policy and management shifts from cleaner production at the process level towards greener products as a whole, stakeholders ask for transparency throughout the entire value chain. This article assesses the comprehensiveness an ...
The concern for sustainable development issues together with the new EU promotion policies are finally leading to a widespread use of Photovoltaic and Solar Thermal systems in buildings. This upcoming reality is opening a new debate on the urban/architectu ...
Culture-independent molecular methods based on the amplification, cloning and sequencing of small-subunit ribosomal RNA genes (SSU rDNAs) are powerful tools to study the diversity of microorganisms. Despite so, the eukaryotic microbial diversity of many ec ...
One of the main problems of today's Airborne Laser Scanning (ALS) systems is the lack of reliable data QA/QC (Quality Assurance/ Quality Control) within or shortly after the airborne survey campaign. This thesis presents the development of methods to perfo ...
In this paper, a new method for the detection of queue lengths at traffic signals is described. Based on conventional probe vehicle data and implementing an extremely flexible data fusion approach for the integration of nearly arbitrary additional traffic ...
From contactless payments to remote car unlocking, many applications are vulnerable to relay attacks. Distance bounding protocols are the main practical countermeasure against these attacks. At FSE 2013, we presented SKI as the first family of provably sec ...
This thesis defines a general approach for the automated visual inspection of surfaces of luxury products, the aesthetic quality of which represents a corollary to the technical mastery necessary to manufacture valuable products. Within a manufacturing ent ...
