Predictive Analytics im Human Capital Management : Status Quo und Potentiale
First Online: 23 December 2015
Erworben im Rahmen der Schweizer Nationallizenzen (http://www.nationallizenzen.ch)Unternehmen verfügen mittlerweile über fortgeschrittene analytische Informationssysteme, die es erlauben die wachsenden Datenmengen nahezu automatisiert auszuwerten und Aussagen über zukünftige Entwicklungen zu treffen. Predictive Analytics befinden sie sich im Human Capital Management noch in den Anfängen. Datengetriebene Unternehmen wie Google oder Hewlett-Packard nutzen Predictive Analytics bereits, um Personalbeschaffung und -erhaltung zu verbessern. Obwohl jedoch die Personalbereiche über umfangreiche Daten verfügen, beschränkt sich deren Nutzung nach unserer Erfahrung und einer von uns durchgeführten Befragung in den meisten Fällen immer noch auf reaktives Excel-Reporting und einfachste Prognosen z. B. zur Personalanzahl. Data Mining-Verfahren werden hingegen selten genutzt, obwohl sich daraus für das Human Capital Management und andere Unternehmensbereiche Vorteile ergeben könnten. In diesem Beitrag stellen wir anhand von Praxisbeispielen und ausgewählter Fachliteratur Potentiale von Predictive Analytics im Human Capital Management vor, untersuchen die Verbreitung sowie die Einsatzmöglichkeiten von personalbezogenen Analysen und gehen auch auf die spezifischen Herausforderungen der Nutzung von Personaldaten ein
SiPM and front-end electronics development for Cherenkov light detection
The Italian Institute of Nuclear Physics (INFN) is involved in the
development of a demonstrator for a SiPM-based camera for the Cherenkov
Telescope Array (CTA) experiment, with a pixel size of 66 mm. The
camera houses about two thousands electronics channels and is both light and
compact. In this framework, a R&D program for the development of SiPMs suitable
for Cherenkov light detection (so called NUV SiPMs) is ongoing. Different
photosensors have been produced at Fondazione Bruno Kessler (FBK), with
different micro-cell dimensions and fill factors, in different geometrical
arrangements. At the same time, INFN is developing front-end electronics based
on the waveform sampling technique optimized for the new NUV SiPM. Measurements
on 11 mm, 33 mm, and 66 mm NUV SiPMs
coupled to the front-end electronics are presentedComment: In Proceedings of the 34th International Cosmic Ray Conference

Measurements and tests on FBK silicon sensors with an optimized electronic design for a CTA camera
In October 2013, the Italian Ministry approved the funding of a Research &
Development (R&D) study, within the "Progetto Premiale TElescopi CHErenkov made
in Italy (TECHE)", devoted to the development of a demonstrator for a camera
for the Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) consortium. The demonstrator consists
of a sensor plane based on the Silicon Photomultiplier (SiPM) technology and on
an electronics designed for signal sampling. Preliminary tests on a matrix of
sensors produced by the Fondazione Bruno Kessler (FBK-Trento, Italy) and on
electronic prototypes produced by SITAEL S.p.A. will be presented. In
particular, we used different designs of the electronics in order to optimize
the output signals in terms of tail cancellation. This is crucial for
applications where a high background is expected, as for the CTA experiment.Comment: 5 pages, 6 figures; Proceedings of the 10th Workshop on Science with

A narrow band neutrino beam with high precision flux measurements
The ENUBET facility is a proposed narrow band neutrino beam where lepton
production is monitored at single particle level in the instrumented decay
tunnel. This facility addresses simultaneously the two most important
challenges for the next generation of cross section experiments: a superior
control of the flux and flavor composition at source and a high level of
tunability and precision in the selection of the energy of the outcoming
neutrinos. We report here the latest results in the development and test of the
instrumentation for the decay tunnel. Special emphasis is given to irradiation
tests of the photo-sensors performed at INFN-LNL and CERN in 2017 and to the
first application of polysiloxane-based scintillators in high energy physics.Comment: Poster presented at NuPhys2017 (London, 20-22 December 2017). 5

Operational experience with the GEM detector assembly lines for the CMS forward muon upgrade
The CMS Collaboration has been developing large-area triple-gas electron multiplier (GEM) detectors to be installed in the muon Endcap regions of the CMS experiment in 2019 to maintain forward muon trigger and tracking performance at the High-Luminosity upgrade of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC); 10 preproduction detectors were built at CERN to commission the first assembly line and the quality controls (QCs). These were installed in the CMS detector in early 2017 and participated in the 2017 LHC run. The collaboration has prepared several additional assembly and QC lines for distributed mass production of 160 GEM detectors at various sites worldwide. In 2017, these additional production sites have optimized construction techniques and QC procedures and validated them against common specifications by constructing additional preproduction detectors. Using the specific experience from one production site as an example, we discuss how the QCs make use of independent hardware and trained personnel to ensure fast and reliable production. Preliminary results on the construction status of CMS GEM detectors are presented with details of the assembly sites involvement
The ENUBET Beamline
The ENUBET ERC project (2016-2021) is studying a narrow band neutrino beam
where lepton production can be monitored at single particle level in an
instrumented decay tunnel. This would allow to measure and
cross sections with a precision improved by about one order of
magnitude compared to present results. In this proceeding we describe a first
realistic design of the hadron beamline based on a dipole coupled to a pair of
quadrupole triplets along with the optimisation guidelines and the results of a
simulation based on G4beamline. A static focusing design, though less efficient
than a horn-based solution, results several times more efficient than
originally expected. It works with slow proton extractions reducing drastically
pile-up effects in the decay tunnel and it paves the way towards a time-tagged
neutrino beam. On the other hand a horn-based transferline would ensure higher
yields at the tunnel entrance. The first studies conducted at CERN to implement
the synchronization between a few ms proton extraction and a horn pulse of 2-10
ms are also described.Comment: Poster presented at NuPhys2018 (London 19-21 December 2018). 4 pages,

Trapped in Time and Place:Cognitive Immobility Among Diaspora Communities
This article adopts the interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA) approach to explore the phenomenon of cognitive immobility, where individuals remain cognitively trapped in experiences or locations despite elapsed time and physical distance from those events and places. It explores how (im)mobility and life transitions hold people in the past. The study focuses on the cognitive experiences of Mrs Eve, an African-American woman who on her first visit to Dakar, Senegal, felt a deep, unexplained connection to the place. The article triangulates Mrs Eve’s experiences against those shared by other individuals in previously published peer-reviewed narratives to reveal how (im)mobility and life transitions can lead to cognitive immobility. It underscores that traumatic or memorable life experiences can result in cognitive immobility under certain circumstances and thus enriches the discourse on people who are cognitively trapped in their past
