Both are used to "measure" air-flow rate Richard, the MAF using a hot wire maintained at a constant temperature in the flow and the MAP using manifold absolute pressure and temperature. In each case, the voltages are fed to the DME which derives the flow rate from the data and adjusts the fuel flow to the injectors accordingly.
I've really no idea why both devices would be used together other than for the DME to compute an average value. Or perhaps each device is more accurate for different air-flow rates and the DME switches from one to the other accordingly throughout the engine speed range.

Just FYI Jeff, the Porsche 9x6 and 9x7 MAFs are hot film, rather than hot wire. Same principle, but less prone to contamination, I believe.
