IJAS' five-day refereed conference is based in the German state of Baden-Wuerttemberg. RESEARCH TRACKS: We invite abstracts\, papers\, and proposals in any of the following tracks: •Social Sciences and Humanities\, •Business and Economics\, •Teaching and Education\, and •Technology and Science. The best paper in each of these four tracks will be recognized through an engraved plaque. The reviewers will select the winning papers. It is up to each author how much to submit or publish. Some authors may publish only an abstract in the proceedings. Others may prefer to publish a longer format. IJAS does not ask for the authors' copyrights\; authors are free to take their presentation work elsewhere and publish it in a journal. Authors may deliver their work during the conference either as (i) a regular presentation\, (ii) a poster session\, (iii) a panel\, or (iv) a workshop. KEYNOTE ADDRESS: Bernd Finger Director of the International Office Albert-Ludwig University\, Freiburg Founded in 1457\, Albert-Ludwig University (a.k.a. University of Freiburg) has 27\,000 students enrolled in more than 100 disciplines\, ranging from fundamental to applied technical disciplines. Its 13\,000 employees make it the region's biggest employer. Together with four other universities in Germany (Karlsruhe)\, France (Strasbourg and Haute-Alsace)\, and Switzerland (Basel)\, it constitutes Eucor\, also known as Der trinationale Campus or Le Campus Trinational\, unifying regional education into a global experience. The rector of Albert-Ludwig University is Eucor's president. The Herr Finger will discuss how the university's multidisciplinary vision for a global education forces it to extend its student exchange programs beyond Eucor's geographical boundaries and how the conference attendees and their respective universities could benefit directly from its exchange programs. HISTORICAL BACKGROUND: Throughout history\, German professional fraternities were segmented into small geographical groups in the practice of their profession. Logistical constraints and political fragmentation made it difficult to operate under a federal model. As a result\, professionals would congregate within the vicinity of their town or city and over glasses of wine or beer would exchange ideas and notes. Through this spirited exchange of research and thirst for knowledge\, state universities flourished. By the late nineteenth century\, Germany emerged as the leading country for philosophical and scientific advancements nourished by geographical "building blocks" of research. When Germans emigrated to the new world\, they carried with them the fraternity spirit. However\, over the years\, in the United States\, research and drinking increasingly went down their own separate ways\, one into the realm of the professors and the other into the realm of student fraternities. After the Second World War\, the federal model increasingly took hold in Germany and is now the dominant model. Under it\, professional rules of conduct reach out to all corners of the country and even beyond as witnessed by Germany's influence within the European Union. RESEARCH SUBMISSION: Please submit your abstract\, paper or other proposal for presentation at this conference. Submissions will be accepted until October 5\, 2009. Within a few days of receiving your proposal we will notify you of the reviewers' acceptance or rejection. If we inform you that it is an acceptance and you may publish your research in the proceedings. You will get (i) a free copy of the proceedings on the CD-ROM entitled Conference of the International Journal of Arts and Sciences (ISSN 1943-6114)\, and (ii) a certificate of attendance. If more than one issue of the CD-ROM is published for the conference\, you will get the issue in which your research appears. At the conference\, the presentation room will be equipped with a laptop\, a digital projector and a projector screen. The laptop will be set up for Powerpoint presentations. Linux and Mac users are asked to save their presentations in a compatible format. In the evolving world of Microsoft\, save down to the 97-2003 format in order to ward off any problems.

It examines the inter-dependencies of all relevant market factors and categorizes them according to importance\, active influence and passive interference. This\, produces a coherent\, complete\, understandable and communicable “business model” which can serve as a basis for strategy development\, scenario development\, early warning or business war gaming. Scenario techniques play a central and fundamental role among the methods of competitive analysis.

Glaubwürdigkeit\, zeitliche Reihenfolge und Relevanz der Informationen sind nur schwer direkt ermittelbar und ändern sich zudem während des Rechercheverlaufs ständig. Ferner gehören widersprüchliche Informationen und Fehlinformationen zum täglichen Brot des CI-Analysten. Um trotz dieser potenziellen kognitiven Wahrnehmungsfehler und verzerrungen (Biases) hochwertige Ergebnisse generieren zu können\, muss der CI-Analyst präventive Tools und Techniken zur Fehlervermeidung sicher anwenden können. Trifft der CI-Analyst keine Vorkehrungen\, droht ihm eine opportunistische Informationsanalyse.

For this\, the development of new technologies is continuously and systematically monitored and their effects evaluated. This begins with technology scouting\, where only emerging technological developments are identified and recorded. This continues with technology assessment\, which determines the stage of maturity and the potential of new technologies. The cycle ends with the strategic analysis of the effects of new technologies on customers\, the business and on competitors. This workshop is the practical application of these three steps and concludes with the added module CTI process\, where the application in the enterprise is discussed. The lecturing of this comparatively complex content is supported and loosened up with live demonstrations and group tasks.

Featuring spectacular sets and beautifully costumed Russian dancers\, Moscow Ballet’s Great Russian Nutcracker is an annual treat for the whole family. Whimsical and imaginative storytelling blends with the richness of Russian classical dance to make the Great Russian Nutcracker a unique performance not to be missed! Choreographer Emelianov has been praised by critics for its unique setting of Act II in the "Land of Peace and Harmony." To convey his message of peace\, Emelianov incorporates an ethereal dove that escorts Masha and the Prince to a land where there is no war or suffering. New for 2009 is a whimsical\, giant\, six-handed grandfather clock\, which signals the transition to the "Land of Peace and Harmony." Moscow Ballet continues its commitment to "Celebrating Children…The Arts Can Make a Difference.” Local children in each market will audition to appear with the 132 Russian dancers on the tours. Last year\, more than 6\,000 U.S. children performed the Great Russian Nutcracker with Moscow Ballet’s dancers\, as part of its educational outreach campaign. Set against Valentin Fedorov's spectacular scenic design\, with larger-than-life puppets and the backdrop of unicorns\, exotic birds and animals\, the Great Russian Nutcracker is a visual delight.

When: 16. December 2009 at 5:00pm Where: newthinking store\, Tucholskystr. 48\, Berlin\, Germany As always there will be slots of 20min each for talks on your Hadoop topic. After each talk there will be a lot time to discuss. You can order drinks directly at the bar in the newthinking store. If you like\, you can order pizza. We will go to Cafe Aufsturz after the event for some beer and something to eat. Talks scheduled so far: Richard Hutton (nugg.ad): "Moving from five days to one hour." - This talk explains how we made data processing scalable at nugg.ad. The company's core business is online advertisement targeting. Our servers receive 10\,000 requests per second resulting in data of 100GB per day. As the classical data warehouse solution reached its limit\, we moved to a framework built on top of Hadoop to make analytics speedy\,data mining detailed and all of our lives easier. We will give an overview of our solution involving file system structures\, scheduling\, messaging and programming languages from the future. Jörg Möllenkamp (Sun): "Hadoop on Sun" Abstract: Hadoop is a well known technology inside of Sun. This talk want to show some interesting use cases of Hadoop in conjunction with Sun technologies. The first show case wants to demonstrate how Hadoop can used to load massive multicore system with up to 256 threads in a single system to the max. The second use case shows how several mechanisms integrated in Solaris can ease the deployment and operation of Hadoop even in non-dedicated environments. The last usecase will show the combination of the Sun Grid Engine and Hadoop. Talk may contain command-line demonstrations \;). Nikolaus Pohle (nurago): "M/R for MR - Online Market Research powered by Apache Hadoop. Enable consultants to analyze online behavior for audience segmentation\, advertising effects and usage patterns." We would like to invite you\, the visitor to also tell your Hadoop story\, if you like\, you can bring slides - there will be a beamer. A big Thanks goes to the newthinking store for providing a room in the center of Berlin for us. Another big thanks goes to StudiVZ for sponsoring videos of the talks.

Die Unternehmen der Wettbewerber-Peer-Group werden hierzu detailliert aus sechs Perspektiven analysiert. Anschließend wird eine Integration dieser Teilanalysen zu einer Strategiebewertung durchgeführt. Sind die Wettbewerberstrategien erst einmal bekannt\, so kann die eigene Strategie entsprechend entwickelt werden\, um nachhaltige Wettbewerbsvorteile zu erlangen. Ebenso lassen sich Überraschungen durch Wettbewerberaktivitäten vermeiden. Verständnis für die interne Sicht des Wettbewerbers wird somit aufgebaut. Aus Reaktionsprofilen lassen sich zukünftige Reaktionen der Wettbewerber ableiten und z.B. Wettbewerberszenarios und War Games aufbauen.

Die Kunst der erfolgreichen Strategieentwicklung liegt in einem kontinuierlichen Wissensaufbau sowie im „richtigen Timing“ (Geschwindigkeit und Sequenz) bei der Umsetzung dieser Strategie. Eine „optimale“ Strategie für dynamische Märkte ergibt sich aus einer Kombination von aktueller Zielerreichung und dem Aufbau von Änderungspotenzial (der Manövrierbarkeit des Unternehmens). Eine Unternehmensstrategie muss sicherstellen\, dass das aktuelle Marktpotenzial ausgeschöpft wird und frühzeitig neue Produkte und Dienstleistungen generiert werden.

Bei der zweiten Jahreskonferenz des ICI werden wir uns auf diese Themen konzentrieren. Unter der fachlichen Leitung von Prof. Dr. Litzcke und Prof. Dr. Wagner werden am ersten Konferenztag (20.4.2010) Wissenschaftler\, Experten der Unternehmenssicherheit\, der Wirtschaftspsychologie und der Nachrichtendienste die "Schwachstelle Mensch" unter verschiedenen Aspekten der Abwehrmöglichkeit von Wirtschaftsspionage beleuchten. Diese Thematik wird in Deutschland häufig vernachlässigt\, schließlich gilt es als unschicklich\, über Schäden durch Wettbewerber oder gar staatliche Dienste zu sprechen. Am zweiten Konferenztag (21.4.2010) kommen Referenten zum Thema "Competitive Intelligence zur Unternehmensstrategieentwicklung" zu Wort. Gerade in Zeiten\, die durch eine Wirtschaftskrise gekennzeichnet sind\, kann Competitive Intelligence nachhaltige strategische Wettbewerbsvorteile generieren. Anhand von Fallstudien werden daher pragmatische Lösungsansätze zu offensiven Wettbewerbsstrategien gestützt auf Competitive Intelligence aufgezeigt. Ein Rahmenprogramm\, bestehend aus Konferenzempfang und gemeinsamem Abendessen\, bietet ausreichend Gelegenheit zum Networken und Vertiefen von Themen. Die Jugendstil-Stadt Bad Nauheim bietet mit ihrem Ambiente und der unmittelbar nach der Tagung beginnenden hessischen Landesgartenschau die richtige Kulisse zu dem führenden Competitive- Intelligence-Treffen in Deutschland.

Command of these analysis techniques is a prerequisite for all subsequent "higher-order" analytical processes. To plan efficient CI projects\, it is necessary to provide the data required for each analytical tool\, and is only possible if one has acquired at least working knowledge of CI analysis techniques. Workshop foci SWOT (Strengths/Weaknesses/ Opportunities/Threats) Determining one's own strengths and weak­nesses as well as the opportunities and threats from the competitive environment is by nature one of the principal tasks of CI.
