Background. The increasing societal reliance on emerging technology is demanding much more of those planning a career in the computing profession than technical ability alone. Many contemporary roles require business contact and therefore soft skills...

A new privacy aware payment scheme for wireless charging of electric vehicles (2016)
Journal Article
Electric vehicles (EVs) can be considered as a revolution in the combustion industry with significant improvement in fuel utilization and decrease in pollution compared to combustion engines. However, by decreasing the size of the battery to reduce t... Read More about A new privacy aware payment scheme for wireless charging of electric vehicles.
Context-dependent combination of sensor information in Dempster–Shafer theory for BDI (2016)
Journal Article
© 2016, The Author(s). There has been much interest in the belief–desire–intention (BDI) agent-based model for developing scalable intelligent systems, e.g. using the AgentSpeak framework. However, reasoning from sensor information in these large-sca... Read More about Context-dependent combination of sensor information in Dempster–Shafer theory for BDI.
An assistive robot to support dressing-strategies for planning and error handling (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
© 2016 IEEE. Assistive robots are emerging to address a social need due to changing demographic trends such as an ageing population. The main emphasis is to offer independence to those in need and to fill a potential labour gap in response to the inc...

Exploiting diverse distance metrics for surrogate-based optimisation of ordering problems (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Surrogate-assisted optimisation has proven success in the continuous domain, but only recently begun to be explored for other representations, in particular permutations. The use of Gaussian kernel-based models has been proposed, but only tested on s... Read More about Exploiting diverse distance metrics for surrogate-based optimisation of ordering problems.
Exploiting antipheromone in ant colony optimisation for interactive search-based software design and refactoring (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Preventing user-fatigue in interactive meta-heuristic search places as great an emphasis on efficiency as it does on ef- fectiveness. Engagement may also be boosted if the system provides a sense of “responsiveness” - for example, avoiding unpopular...

Tiny Symphony (2016)
Other
First and foremost, this is a little musical portrait of my two-year-old son, Sebastian. But, it does also contain all the elements of a late-classical-period symphony in miniature: a sonata form first movement, a scherzo and trio, a slow movement, a... Read More about Tiny Symphony.
Neptun Art/Science Lab (2016)
Exhibition / Performance
Neptun Art/Science Lab, Museum Nord A physical and theoretical hub in the Intersection of Art and Science at the Norwegian Fishing Industry Museum, North Norway. Herring oil was produced here for more than 70 years, and now it is home to the Norwegia... Read More about Neptun Art/Science Lab.
Leimu: Gloveless music interaction using a wrist mounted leap motion (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Camera-based motion tracking has become a popular enabling technology for gestural human-computer interaction. However, the approach suffers from several limitations, which have been shown to be particularly problematic when employed within musical c...

Formal modelling of TCP congestion control mechanisms ECN/RED and SAP-LAW in the presence of UDP traffic (2016)
Journal Article
Congestion avoidance mechanisms are used to prevent the saturation of the gateway which represents a bottleneck of the system. Recently, a new method for the congestion avoidance has been proposed: the smart access point with limited advertised windo...
