 Kuhn, Hans - Autobiography : Early Ideas in the History of Quantum Chemistry.
However, Werner Kuhn proposed a model which was astonishingly simple: replace the molecule by a dumb-bell, the two spheres being at the ends of the molecular chain.
Werner Kuhn and I were engaged at that time with a more basic theoretical question relevant to a quantitative description of the viscosity of dilute solutions of macromolecules.
Werner Kuhn's dumb-bell model was a masterpiece and it is a pity that the scientific community has not kept in mind the model and the work based on it (see Ref. [25]).

Werner Kuhn is a professor of Geoinformatics at the University of Münster, Germany (
Werner Kuhn got his PhD (Dr.sc.techn.) in 1989 from ETH Zurich in Surveying Engineering with a thesis on GIS user interfaces, and his diploma as a surveying engineer in 1982 with the computation of the first gravimetric Geoid for Switzerland.
Werner has been serving the larger geographic information community as an elected member of the Council of AGILE (Association of Geographic Information Laboratories in Europe, from 1998 to 2002), as Technical Director Europe, of the Open GIS Consortium (from 1998 to 2001), and as a delegate to CEN TC 287 on Geographic Information.

 GEO 565 Annotated Bibliography - David Bradford
Werner Kuhn states that geographical information systems contain spatial, temporal and thematic data, and that the first two types of data are closely associated with well-known reference systems and tools (i.e., spatial reference systems — map projections and coordinate transformations, and temporal reference systems — calendar systems and date conversions).
Kuhn’s paper provides a valuable and enlightening framing of the ideas inherent in semantic interoperability by describing them via his “reference system” analogy.
It takes the concepts of spatial, temporal and thematic data GIS users are already familiar with, summarizes interoperability in terms of the reference systems of the first two, and establishes the need for the third.

The last part of the presentation will review some of the cognitive aspects of visual languages, particularly the role of spatial metaphors (Kuhn and Frank 1991).
It will lead to the conclusion that we expect a strong mutual benefit for visual languages and GIS from a joint investigation of how languages use space and how space is communicated in languages.

 ESPN.com Soccernet Europe: News - Mattheus Vienna hearing delayed
Matthaeus, Germany's former World Cup-winning captain, was fired from his coaching post by Rapid in May after a dismal season in which the club slipped to their lowest position in their 103-year history.
The judge cleared around nine hours of his schedule to interview both the 41-year old ex-Bayern Munich midfielder and Rapid manager Werner Kuhn in a bid to settle Matthaeus's claim, said to be for more than 560,000 euros.
Matthaeus has refused to make any comments about the financial details of the case, but Rapid president Rudolf Edlinger told weekly magazine 'News' that Rapid would not be making any offer or deal.

 Vector One » Blog Archive » Good GI Professor
Werner Kuhn pens some interesting thoughts about what a ‘Good GI Professor’ is in this month’s Geoconnexion International Magazine.
As Kuhn states, “ Professors in (continental) Europe are finally being told by their governments and universities that individual contributions to scientific growth are not only measurable, but will be measured.
They face new standards that have more to do with impact than with elitism and social protectionism for the high priests of knowledge.”
