The games industry has significantly grown over the last 30 years. Projects are getting bigger and more expensive, making it essential to plan, structure and track them more efficiently.
The growth of projects has increased the administrative workload for producers, project managers and leads, as they have to monitor and control the progress of the project in order to keep a permanent overview of the project. This is often accompanied by a lack of insight into the project and basic communication within the team. Therefore, the goal of this thesis is to enhance conventional project management methods with process structures that occur frequently in game development.
This thesis initially elaborates on what project management in the game industry actually is: Here, methods are considered, especially agile methods and progress tracking prac-tices, which were created for software development and have become a standard in game development. Subsequently, an example is used to demonstrate how process management can function within the development of video games. Based on this, the ideal is depicted, which is implemented and used in a tool at the German games studio KING Art GmbH. This ideal is compared with expert interviews in order to verify its gen-eral validity in the industry.
By integrating process structures, the administrative effort can be reduced, communica-tion within game development can be simplified, while the current project status can be permanently presented. This benefits both project management and leads, as well as the entire team. Further application tests of this theory would have to be organized to check scalability and to draw comparisons to other applications.
The Blockchain is a technology which has the capabilities to change the way, the world operates. As promising as this may be, there are still many challenges which do not exist or are way simpler to solve in conventional software solutions. Services which are offered over the blockchain suffer from so called Block-confirmation-times where the customer simply has to wait till the transaction is confirmed. In this paper possible solutions to that problem will be examined and challenges that arise from the specific criteria of the Ethereum Blockchain will be analyzed.

The GeoFlow II experiment aims to replicate Earth’s core dynamics using a rotating spherical container with controlled temperature differences and simulated gravity. During the GeoFlow II campaign, a massive dataset of images was collected, necessitating an automated system for image processing and fluid flow visualization in the northern hemisphere of the spherical container. From here, we aim to detect the special structures appearing on the post processed images. Recognizing YOLOv5’s proficiency in object detection, we apply Yolov5 model for this task.
Gold cyanidation is a process by which gold is removed from low-grade ore. Due to its efficiency it has found widespread application around the world, including Peru. The process requires free cyanide in high concentration. After the gold extraction is completed, free cyanide as well as metal cyanide complexes remain in the effluent of gold mines and refineries. Often these effluents are kept in storage ponds where they pose considerable risk to health and environ-ment. Thus, it is preferable to degrade cyanide to minimize the risk of exposure. In the context of this thesis cyanide degradation was explored in a UV-light based prototype. Degradation with a combination of hydrogen peroxide and UV-light has proven to be very effective at degrading cyanide concentrations of 100 mg/L and 1000 mg/L. Furthermore, the presence of ammonia as a degradation product could also be confirmed. Membrane distillation may provide an alternative to cyanide destruction in the form of cyanide recovery. Promising results were gathered from several membrane experiment.
Die biologische Ammoniumoxidation ist ein zentraler Bestandteil des globalen Stickstoffkreislaufs. Angesichts der extremen Massen Stickstoff anthropogenen Ursprungs in der Umwelt, liegt die Entfernung reaktiven Stickstoffs im Interesse der Umwelt und der öffentlichen Gesundheit. In der folgenden Arbeit werden Bedingungen zur anaeroben Ammoniumoxidation mit Nitrat in einem Anammox-Reaktor untersucht. Dabei wurden 2 Laborreaktoren für eine Zeit von insgesamt 116 Tagen betrieben und beobachtet, die ausschließlich als Elektronendonatoren und Akzeptoren Ammonium und Nitrat enthielten. Zusätzlich wurden Batchkulturen mit Zellen eines Reaktors angezüchtet und auf ihre Gaszusammensetzung abhängig unterschiedlicher Eigenschaften untersucht. Hierbei wurde eine Reihe unterschiedlicher analytischer Quantifizierungsmethoden genutzt und es konnte gezeigt werden, dass ein Abbau unter den Bedingungen stattfindet.
Die aktuelle Forschung zu dieser Reaktion ist spärlich und verleiht der Bachelorarbeit dadurch Relevanz.
Studying and understanding the metabolism of plants is essential to better adapt them to future climate conditions. Computational models of plant metabolism can guide this process by providing a platform for fast and resource-saving in silico analyses. The reconstruction of these models can follow kinetic or stoichiometric approaches with Flux Balance Analysis being one of the most common one for stoichiometric models. Advances in metabolic modelling over the years include the increasing number of compartments, the automation of the reconstruction process, the modelling of plant-environment interactions and genetic variants or temporally and spatially resolved models. In addition, there is a growing focus on introducing synthetic pathways in plants to increase their agricultural potential regarding yield, growth and nutritional value. One example is the β-hydroxyaspartate cycle (BHAC) to bypass photorespiration. After the implementation in a stoichiometric C3 plant model, in silico flux analyses can help to understand the resulting metabolic changes. When comparing with in vivo experiments with BHAC plants, the metabolic model can reproduce most results with exceptions regarding growth and oxaloacetate. To evaluate whether the BHAC is suitable to establish a synthetic C4 cycle, the pathway is implemented in a two-cell type model that is capable of running a C4 cycle. The results show that the BHAC is only beneficial under light limitation in the bundle sheath cell. An additional engineering target for improved performance of plants is malate synthase. This work serves as the basis for further analyses combining the different factors boosting the advantages of the BHAC and for in vivo experiments in C3 and C4 plants.
In this work, we identify similarities between Adversarial Examples and Counterfactual Explanations, extend already stated differences from previous works to other fields of AI such as dimensionality, transferability etc. and try to observe these similarities and differences in different classifier with tabular and image data. We note that this topic is an open discussion and the work here isn’t definite and canbe further extended or modified in the future, if new discoveries found.
In this thesis two novel methods for removing undesired background illumination are de-veloped. These include a wavelet analysis based approach and an enhancement of a deep learning method. These methods have been compared with conventional methods, using real confocal microscopy images and synthetic generated microscopy images. These synthetic images were created utilizing a generator introduced in this thesis.
