Trust in Smart Personal Assistants: A Systematic Literature Review and Development of a Research Agenda
(GITO Verlag, 2020)

Die Austro Moderne
(2023-01-10)
Die Länder Zentraleuropas lassen sich nicht einfach als Nachholer der westlichen Modernisierung begreifen. Der Beitrag zeigt vielmehr auf, wie die technischen Entwicklungen in den Autofabriken Lohner in Wien und Austro-Daimler in Wiener Neustadt vor sich gingen und der leichte und leistungsstarke Benzinmotor den Flugzeugbau (die Taube von Etrich) und Luftschiffbau vorantrieb. Im Flugzeugbau war Österreich um 1910 führend. Das kreative Milieu in Wien wird daran deutlich, dass die Hauptverwaltung der Lohnerwerke bloß ...
