Este trabalho procura mostrar novos conceitos em intervenções e materiais de construção nas restaurações de monumentos históricos. Caso especial da Kahal Zur Israel (primeira sinagoga das Américas), o que motivou a restauração deste monumento. Qual era o contexto histórico da época, o histórico do monumento em si mesmo, quais foram os critérios de intervenção adotados, baseados nas práticas restaurativas dos novos teóricos e guardando algumas das recomendações das cartas patrimoniais existentes. Explanar sobre as descobertas arqueológicas feitas, com o objetivo de conseguir informações, para execução de um projeto de intervenção correto e adaptado às necessidades de uso atual, salvaguardando o bem patrimonial, bem como promover a auto-sustentabilidade do empreendimento, adquirir suporte financeiro para a sua sobrevivência e conservação. O procedimento levou em conta outros monumentos, onde foi observado o emprego de materiais modernos, utilizados com a finalidade de adaptar os monumentos para usos contemporâneos onde o comércio, o turismo, os serviços, as comunicações e o conforto ambiental são imperativos, isto sem perder os seus valores culturais no sítio histórico. Também descreve e destaca os materiais modernos dos antigos, não criando falso histórico nem falso artístico. Exemplo bem dado pelo novo bloco anexo complementar, situado ao fundo da Sinagoga. Em geral, os materiais de construções modernos, dão um novo sentido de intervenção aos monumentos. / This study shows new restoration concepts about interventions and construction materials used in historical monuments. The study views the specific case of Kahal Zur Israel (first synagogue of the Americas), and what exactly motivated the restoration of this monument. Some questions considered were: which was the historical context of the time? What was the history of the monument in itself? Which were the intervention criteria adopted, based on the newest theories, while at the same time preserving some of the present recommendations of the heritage letters? The study also described some of the archaeological discoveries that were carried out with the objective of gathering information to best execute the restoration project. The intervention tried to adapt the present necessities of the locale, preserve its historical value, and promote its financial self-sustainability. The procedure included considerations done on other monuments where modern materials were used so that contemporary uses could be adapted (commerce, tourism, services, communications and environmental comfort). At the same time the preservation of the cultural values of the historical center was observed. Moreover, the procedures show and differentiate the modern materials from the old, avoiding a false representation of the historical and artistic value of the locale. A good example of this at Kahal Zur Israel, is the complementary annexed bloc, situated in the depths of the synagogue. In general, modern building materials give a new sense of intervention to the monuments.

Der vorliegende Beitrag beschäftigt sich mit Untersuchungen zur Entfernungsmessung terrestrischer Long-Range Laserscanner. Für diese Studie wurden dem Institut für Markscheidewesen und Geodäsie dankenswerter Weise von der Firma RIEGL ein Laserscanner VZ-4000 zur Verfügung gestellt. In diesem Beitrag werden der Versuchsaufbau erläutert und erste Ergebnisse des Soll-Ist-Vergleiches gezeigt. Die unterschiedlichen Einflussgrößen, wie Temperatur und Luftdruck, die bei Messungen auf große Entfernungen eine Rolle spielen, werden angesprochen. / This paper deals with actual researches for measuring distances of terrestrial long-range Laser scanners. The Institute for Mine Surveying and Geodesy had a laser scanner VZ-4000 by the company RIEGL easy and unconventional provided. The paper presents the experimental setup and the results of the target-actual comparison. Several influences, for example temperature and atmospheric pressure, are considered for long-range measurements.

Objective: Lower levels of anabolic hormones in older age are well documented. Several studies suggested that low insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) or testosterone levels were related to increased mortality. The aim of the present study was to investigate the combined influence of low IGF-I and low testosterone on all-cause mortality in men. Methods and results: From two German prospective cohort studies, the DETECT study and SHIP, 3942 men were available for analyses. During 21,838 person-years of follow-up, 8.4% (n = 330) of men died. Cox model analyses with age as timescale and adjusted for potential confounders revealed that men with levels below the 10th percentile of at least one hormone [hazard ratio (HR) 1.38 (95% confidence-interval (CI) 1.06–1.78), p = 0.02] and two hormones [HR 2.88 (95% CI 1.32–6.29), p < 0.01] showed a higher risk of all-cause mortality compared to men with non-low hormones. The associations became non-significant by using the 20th percentile as cut-off showing that the specificity increased with lower cut-offs for decreased hormone levels. The inclusion of both IGF-I and total testosterone in a mortality prediction model with common risk factors resulted in a significant integrated discrimination improvement of 0.5% (95% CI 0.3–0.7%, p = 0.03). Conclusions: Our results prove that multiple anabolic deficiencies have a higher impact on mortality than a single anabolic deficiency and suggest that assessment of more than one anabolic hormone as a biomarker improve the prediction of all-cause mortality.

Konzeptuelle Modelle sind zur Gestaltung und Steuerung von Informationssystemen ein akzeptiertes und weit verbreitetes Instrument. Sie werden sowohl zur Gestaltung der Organisationsstruktur als auch zur Entwicklung der unterstützenden IT-Systeme verwendet. Für diesen Aufgabenbereich existiert eine hohe Nachfrage nach externer Unterstützung, da spezifische Fachkenntnisse und Erfahrungen notwendig sind. In diesem Zusammenhang werden seit Jahrzehnten Ansätze zur Wiederverwendung in Wissenschaft und Praxis diskutiert. Die Akzeptanz und Verbreitung von explizit zur Wiederverwendung konstruierten Modellen (Referenzmodelle) bleiben jedoch deutlich hinter den Erwartungen zurück. Die vorliegende Arbeit trägt zur Untersuchung möglicher Ursachen für den ausbleibenden Erfolg von Referenzmodellen bei. Der Forschung liegt die Vermutung zugrunde, dass die Potentiale von Referenzmodellen nicht zufriedenstellend ausgeschöpft werden können, weil die existierenden bzw. verwendeten Modellierungsmethoden die theoretischen Anforderungen an die Wiederverwendung von modellhaft dargestellten Lösungen zur Unternehmensgestaltung nicht erfüllen. Die vorliegende Arbeit fasst neun Einzelpublikationen zum Themenbereich Evolutionäre Referenzmodelle zu einer kumulativen Dissertation zusammen. Es werden in einem argumentativdeduktiven Verfahren konstruktivistische Theorien zur systematischen Weiterentwicklung und Wiederverwendung konzeptueller Unternehmensmodelle untersucht. Die auf dieseWeise resultierende Erweiterung der allgemeinen Modelltheorie wurde ihrerseits argumentativ-konzeptionell mit Hilfe von semiformalen Argumentationsmodellen aufbereitet. Im Ergebnis werden ein theoretisches Rahmenwerk zur evolutionären Referenzmodellierung präsentiert und 23 konzeptionelle Anforderungen definiert, die eine gezielte Methodenentwicklung für die evolutionäre Referenzmodellierung steuern sollen.
