This paper focusses on case marking in informal Namibian German (so called Namdeutsch). Whilst the use of nominative and accusative case is stable and similar to Standard German, there is a considerable amount of variation with regard to the dative case. This phenomenon is analysed in detail using corpus and questionnaire data. Multifactorial analyses reveal that several sociolinguistic and grammatical factors have a significant impact on the language use in this particular domain. Subsequently, the results are compared with other extraterritorial varieties of German and various similarities are found. This supports the idea that there are variety/language overarching principles at work. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Data are considered to be the "oil of the 21st century". However, the owners of this "commodity" are not multinational companies, but each individual. This paper presents selected results from a representative population survey in the USA and Switzerland. The results show that although financial motives play a role, two other basic motives (information, social influence) are more important. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper presents the SCAUP model (Multi-Agents Simulation from Urban sensors data for traffic Air Pollution). SCAUP aims at simulating a road traffic based on a data-driven approach in order to be close to observation on a wide set of theoretical road network. The data used in SCAUP are based on automatic traffic counting measurements done by electromagnetic loop sensors. The purpose of the proposed agent-based model is to simulate road traffic at the scale of a theoretical and controlled road network. In this paper, we present an overview of the sets of parameters, the overall simulation process and its analysis tests, in order to evaluate the SCAUP capacities to simulate a traffic flow pattern with two main input data: road network and traffic counting data.

„Big Data” is a catchphrase referring to algorithmic procedures to process large amounts of data. It owes its success, and in particular its medial prominence, in part to its opposition to the established paradigm of relational database theory, whose main tenets, will be sketched in a first step. It is by contrasting „Big Data” with this traditional traditional procedure that the crucial contrast regarding the availability of an overwhelming mass of information can be drawn. Proponents of the former approach claim that a change of paradigm is called for because conventional theory is not equipped to handle these unprecedented challenges. The ensuing debate is presented in the second section of this paper. The opposing views can, as it turns out, be traced back to divergent epistemological attitudes. The contribution concludes with a discussion about the questionable move to establish the category „raw data” as an underlying domain for an innovative theory of data processing.

Electronic laboratory books are increasingly replacing paper laboratory books. This offers advantages in operational handling, but is also a strategic decision with regard to the establishment of integrated r esearc h data management for digital research data. When selecting and introducing an electronic laboratory book, a number of criteria and framework conditions must be observed and preparatory analyses carried out. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The present article is concerned with so-called absolute, i.e. non-selected, small clauses headed by the preposition mit (in one of its homonymous uses). Drawing on observations and data in Businger (2011), but contrary to his analysis, I argue for a unified syntactico-semantic analysis of 'absolute' small clauses headed by the preposition mit ('with') and haben-clauses ('have') in German as double subject-predicate structures. Based on Bowers' (1993, 2001) PrP-analysis, I analyze absolute mit-SCs as adjunct PrPs (PrPadjunct) headed by mit with PRO in Spec and a PrP complement (PrPcomplement), consisting (minimally) of a dative DP and a predicative XP, cf. (1): (1) [PrP/adjunct PRO mit [PrP/complement DPdat […] XP]]] Regarding the interpretation of PRO in these adjuncts, I argue that PRO displays the obligatory control (OC) properties described by Landau (2013): 1) the controller must be an argument of the adjunct's matrix clause (usually, but not always, a subject), 2) long-distance and arbitrary control are ruled out, 3) OC PRO only allows a sloppy reading under ellipsis, and 4) PRO's antecedent is not restricted to [+human], but also can also be [-human]. Finally, these adjuncts are syntactically and semantically underspecified in the sense that they are not inherently temporal, causal or manner, but are interpreted as such in the corresponding adverbial adjunct positions (cf. Frey & Pittner 1998, 1999 and Pittner 1999). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Big data is a field of investigation rich in promises but still complex in renewing spatial mobility analysis. In fact, thinking about mobility through the prism of digital footprints raises many questions regarding the data nature, the accessibility procedures and the methods and techniques of treatment. This paper aims to explore the potential of digital footprints in the analysis of mobility through the example of data from the Carpooling platform BlaBlaCar. By analyzing (temporal and spatial) trips to and from city of Rennes over the course of 5 months, the goal is both to draw a portrait of Carpooling in the capital of Britanny and to give an overview of advantages and limitations of these data in understanding this new form of mobility.
