The outcome of the elections presents a problem of interpretation, since only preliminary information was initially available. Analyses electoral participation, party gains and losses within individual member states and then takes a Community-wide perspective of the results. (SJK)

An analysis of 25 Eurobarometer surveys conducted in each of the European Community member-countries shows that there is not single trend discernible throughout Western Europe. Four different patterns have emerged. (Abstract amended)

This paper examines the extent to which conditions for the 'representative party government' model of representation exist in the EU. It suggests that, although application of the model is obviously limited, there is some support for its relevance. Using surveys of voters and candidates for the European Parliament the paper shows that some policy positions of representatives are constrained more by their party group than their nationality, and to some degree there is obvious congruence between the opinions of candidates and their voters. This is particularly so with respect to left-right orientation; far less with respect to European Monetary Union where elites appear much more enthusiastic than their electorates.

A model of European electoral participation is proposed which relates indicators of general political involvement, European attitudes and orientations and social-structural background characteristics to both intended and reported participation. (Abstract amended)

Die Integration heterogener Messsysteme in eine Produktions-IT führt zu einem hohem Aufwand, da die Schnittstelle des Gerätes manuell an das verwendete Protokoll und Datenformat angepasst werden muss. In diesem Beitrag wird vorgestellt, wie durch die Verwendung einer domänenspezifischen Beschreibungssprache die Schnittstelle eines Messsystems, prototypisch basierend auf HTTP und MQTT, auf Basis eines Meta-Datenmodells generiert und sich Informationen mit Kontext- und Metadaten annotieren lassen.

The integration of heterogeneous measurement systems into a production IT leads to high effort, as the interface of the device must be adapted manually to the protocol and data format used. By using a domain-specific description language, this article presents how the interface of a measurement system, prototypically based on HTTP and MQTT, can be generated based on a meta-data-model and how measurement data can be annotated with context- and metadata.
