 Marcel Schönbächler, Aufgabenarten, Bewertungsmethoden & Spielregeln in mobilen Spielen, University of Zurich, Faculty of Economics, Business Administration and Information Technology, 2008. (Master's Thesis)
In this thesis, the Mobile-Learning-Game-research-project ""mExplorer"" will be analyzed firstly to demonstrate how the two concepts of ""Learning"" and ""Game"" interact with each other. It will examine how learning and playing games are related, and how they can be used for learning. The practical part of this thesis shows the different types of tasks that are expanded, and the improved assessment and scoring system: Additionally to the previous tasks that were implemented, the coordinator of the game can use the so-called chain-, creative- or group tasks which result that using the mExplorer is
more appealing then it was before. With two user tests, the effectiveness of these new modules was tested. It was observed that especially creative tasks lead to more fun, which was a main objective of this work. |

Gregor Berther, Wuala Monitoringsystem - Erfassen, Speichern und Darstellen von relevanten Ereignissen in einem grossen verteilten Speichersysstem, University of Zurich, Faculty of Economics, Business Administration and Information Technology, 2008. (Master's Thesis)
Monitoring is an important concept to evaluate relevant events in a supervised system,
which helps to recognize undesired developments and to make strategical decisions for
further improvements. Especially in distributed systems, monitoring is not trivial, because
the necessary data is not locally available, but scattered on all of the network’s nodes. The system has no global state that can be simply supervised, but consists of lot of autonomous interacting nodes. Wuala is such a large-scale distributed storage system, which stores the user’s data in a peer-to-peer network. This diploma thesis describes the design and the implementation of the Wuala monitoring system. It provides a framework for a quick and simple collection of reports in every single part of Wuala. The gathered data is stored on a centralized database, where it can be visualized and analyzed with various programs. |

Sascha Nedkoff, DBDoc Entwurf und Implementierung einer Anwendung zur partiellen Automation des Dokumentations-Prozesses für Datenbanken, University of Zurich, Faculty of Economics, Business Administration and Information Technology, 2008. (Master's Thesis)
Nowadays most relational database systems support the specification and storage of user-defined comments for database objects. Those comments can be considered as a rudimentary documentation of the database schema. But alone they are insufficient and inconvenient to document a database, because they can only be accessed in a cumbersome way and for a documentation many other schema informations are also relevant. Within this thesis an application for a partial automation of the documentation process is developed and implemented, which is capable to generate a database documentation by accessing the userdefined comments and schema informations. Thereby it should generally support various output formats and various database systems as well as database design patterns. |

Marco D'Ambros, Harald Gall, Michele Lanza, Martin Pinzger, Software Evolution, In: null, SpringerLink, p. 37 - 67, 2008. (Book Chapter)
Software repositories such as versioning systems, defect tracking systems, and
archived communication between project personnel are used to help manage the progress of
software projects. Software practitioners and researchers increasingly recognize the potential
benefit of mining this information to support the maintenance of software systems, improve
software design or reuse, and empirically validate novel ideas and techniques. Research is
now proceeding to uncover ways in which mining these repositories can help to understand
software development, to support predictions about software development, and to plan various
evolutionary aspects of software projects.
This chapter presents several analysis and visualization techniques to understand software
evolution by exploiting the rich sources of artifacts that are available. Based on the data models
that need to be developed to cover sources such as modification and bug reports we describe
how to use a Release History Database for evolution analysis. For that we present approaches
to analyze developer effort for particular software entities. Further we present change coupling
analyses that can reveal hidden change dependencies among software entities. Finally, we
show how to investigate architectural shortcomings over many releases and to identify trends
in the evolution. Kiviat graphs can be effectively used to visualize such analysis results. |

Christian Bosshar, Entwicklung eines Bankenspiels, welches impulsives und reflektives Lernverhalten berücksichtigt, University of Zurich, Faculty of Economics, Business Administration and Information Technology, 2008. (Master's Thesis)
This Master thesis deals with the analysis of adaptive techniques for knowledge
transfer over a computer assisted learning environment. Adaptive techniques are
able to respond to individual need of learners. The assumption must be made, that
each learner can be assigned to a specific cognitive style. Kagan et al. could
pointed out, that people can be separated into two distinctive groups: impulsive
and reflective people.
These cognitive styles depend on the weighting of response latency and accuracy.
Impulsive people tend to react faster than reflective, but are more likely to commit
performance errors. Reflective people have longer response times and commit fewer
errors. Considering the modern educational system, itís often presumed that reflective
people generally perform better than impulsive people.
The root of this could possibly be found in a one-sided orientation on theoretically
knowledge, which prefers reflective learners. A more practice-oriented approach,
which also takes the response latency in account, would be much more appropriate for
impulsive learners. Therefore a middle-way had to be found, which favors both cognitive
styles. During this thesis a computer assisted learning environment was developed,
which satisfy the needs of impulsive and reflective learners in the same way. |
