Welche Tablets, Anwendungen und Verfahren verdienen das Vertrauen von Unternehmen? Worauf sollte man achten wenn man einen vertrauenswürdigen Workflow mit Tablets umsetzen möchte und beweiskräftige Dokumente erzeugen will? Welche Best Practice Beispiele gibt es und wo kann man sie auf der CeBIT sehen? Und was kommt voraussichtlich noch im Lauf von 2013 an neuen Angeboten? Antworten im Fachvortrag im ECM-Forum unter dem Motto "Shared Content" von BITKOM und VOI am Donnerstag, 7. März 2013 ab 11 Uhr. Rund 3,2 Mio. Tablets wurden 2012 in Deutschland verkauft, darunter ca. 2 Mio. iPads. Viele Geräte wurden auch für den professionellen Einsatz gekauft, um darauf Dokumente anzuzeigen, zu bearbeiten und zu signieren. Zahlreiche neue Tablets mit Android und Windows 8 kamen Ende 2012 auf den Markt. "Shared Content requires Shared Consent" - Sowohl bei der Erstellung wie auch beim Teilen von Inhalten spielt die Dokumentation von Einverständnissen eine entscheidende Rolle - egal ob Kenntnisnahme, Freigabe, Vertragsunterzeichnung. Tablets wiederum sind ein Mega-Thema der CeBIT 2013. In vielen Bereichen haben sie das Potential klassische Notebooks zu ersetzen. Und über allem steht die Frage "Wie beweiskräftig und rechtswirksam sind Vorgänge die mit Tablets gestaltet werden?".

While everyone in the software industry knows what open source is and have benefited from some of the successful open source projects out there, for example, Java, Linux, JavaScript, and Docker, there is still lack of understanding beyond the fact that open source software is publicly available and free. This chat will provide a concise guide based on personal experience and available documentation to learn what open source is all about, why it is good for business, business models and recommendations to join the open source movement.

Open Source: What is It?

DuraSpace

Open source software allows anyone to freely read, study, modify and redistribute a software’s source code with little restriction other than that free access is maintained. For a nonprofit, open source represents a fantastic opportunity to tap into some of the best technology out there, to engage with entirely new allies, and to reduce long-term technology costs for an organization. Join the Case Foundation’s VP of Interactive Strategies, John Jones, for a webinar where he will cover the following topics: - Discuss what open source is - How some nonprofits have been able to employ it to advance their work - How you may apply those lessons to your own organization - In addition, John will share some of the open source work the Case Foundation has been leading, which will include a demo of an open source project the Case Foundation has released.

Mining and raw materials companies have longer and costly innovation cycles.The objective of the project was to build on top of the established Open Innovation (OI) body of knowledge a set of best practices and tools specifically tailored to raw material companies. The project consisted of an open innovation assessment study and piloting a digital collaboration tool in an online OI workshop in a mining company.

We perform this come-to-me love spell that works instantly with the aim of bringing back the victim to the person performing the magic. Have you lost your lover? Do u need to solve any relationship problem? Contact the powerful spells caster chief kule with love spells that work overnight and love spells that really work. Have you found yourself infatuated with a special someone you think could be the one? Are you looking for a spell to provide them with a nudge in the right direction? Or maybe the spell you cast didn’t achieve the results you were hoping for? Whether you’re new or versed in the ways of spell casting, we’re here to help. Today we’re going to provide you with a detailed guide on the types of love spells to cast. Not only that but there’s something for those who wish to find outside advice from more advanced spell casters. We’re also going to provide you with the top sites available to help you with your dilemma. Let’s begin our journey by educating ourselves on love magic and what a real love caster looks like. Love Magic and Love Casters Love magic made its first appearance back in Ancient Egypt and has been an active practice since. This type of magic is a branch of traditional magic and can be practiced in various ways. Typically the more common use of love magic is through the work of spells, but other methods look like Charms Rituals-LOVE Potions-Dolls and even Amulets If you are interested in becoming a love caster, be prepared for what’s to come. A genuine love caster knows that the art of love casting is no easy feat and shouldn’t be done casually. You should know that not only does it require you to be gifted spiritually, but you must be ready to serve others. Someone who is considered a real love caster has experience in all manner of spells, no matter the difficulty. Training yourself in attraction, commitment, and marriage spells is an excellent place to start. But this by no means will make you a professional. Practice your craft and expand your knowledge; understand that you will possess the ability to help others in time truly. Types of Love Spells What better way to start broadening your experiences with love spells than by learning more about them? These spells work like just about any other spell. Simply apply your intention, use a medium (sigils, mantras, candles, or charm bags), and top it off with establishing the belief that you will receive what you want. So what kind of spells are available and which ones suit your needs the best? Let’s take a look at the many options you have at your disposal.

Modeling languages are generally applied for developing systems and software – both internally, with domain-specific languages, and with standardized languages targeting a general purpose and a wide audience. Way too often these languages are weakly created and defined leading to poor quality: Language definitions tend to contain errors and inconsistencies; notations do not recognize the communication and problem-solving needs of humans; standardization organizations push exchange formats that do not fully work and offer certificates that do not measure mastery of the language. We describe common problems in language development and point them out with examples from known cases. To overcome these problems, we suggest several solutions to improve language development, including using modeling languages specifically designed to define modeling languages, continuous testing and prototyping, and keeping language users in the loop.
