Governing narrative events with institutional norms (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

A narrative world can be viewed as a form of society in which characters follow a set of social norms whose collective function is to guide the characters through (the creation of) a story arc and reach some conclusion. By modelling the rules of a na... Read More about Governing narrative events with institutional norms.

Quantitative transformation for implementation of adder circuits in physical systems (2015)
Journal Article

© 2015 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. Computing devices are composed of spatial arrangements of simple fundamental logic gates. These gates may be combined to form more complex adding circuits and, ultimately, complete computer systems. Implementing classical...

An exploration of expressive feedback as a method for improving the human-computer relationship (2015)
Thesis

A growing community of designers have begun to focus on the emotional aspects of system design as they seek to improve the user experience (UX), by developing applications that elicit positive responses from users that motivate them to learn, play or...

Caught in the Act of an Insider Attack: Detection and Assessment of Insider Threat (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

The greatest asset that any organisation has are its people, but they may also be the greatest threat. Those who are within the organisation may have authorised access to vast amounts of sensitive company records that are essential for maintaining co...

Distributed low-latency data aggregation scheduling in wireless sensor networks (2015)
Journal Article

This article considers the data aggregation scheduling problem, where a collision-free schedule is determined in a distributed way to route the aggregated data from all the sensor nodes to the base station within the least time duration. The algorith... Read More about Distributed low-latency data aggregation scheduling in wireless sensor networks.

HRF-relaxed: Adapting HRF to the complexities of industrial heterogeneous memory models (2015)
Journal Article

© 2015 ACM. Memory consistency models, or memory models, allow both programmers and program language imple-menters to reason about concurrent accesses to one or more memory locations. Memory model specifications balance the often conflicting needs fo... Read More about HRF-relaxed: Adapting HRF to the complexities of industrial heterogeneous memory models.

On exploration of geometrically constrained space by medicinal leeches Hirudo verbana (2015)
Journal Article

© 2015 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. Leeches are fascinating creatures: they have simple modular nervous circuitry yet exhibit a rich spectrum of behavioural modes. Leeches could be ideal blue-prints for designing flexible soft robots which are modular, mult...

Fast catheter segmentation from echocardiographic sequences based on segmentation from corresponding X-ray fluoroscopy for cardiac catheterization interventions (2015)
Journal Article

© 2014 IEEE. Echocardiography is a potential alternative to X-ray fluoroscopy in cardiac catheterization given its richness in soft tissue information and its lack of ionizing radiation. However, its small field of view and acoustic artifacts make di...

Use of credibility heuristics in a social question-answering service (2015)
Journal Article

Introduction.This study looked at the effect of community peripheral cues (specifically voting score and answerer's reputation) on the user's credibility rating of answers.
Method. Students in technology and philosophy were asked to assess the credi... Read More about Use of credibility heuristics in a social question-answering service.

Slime mould memristors (2015)
Journal Article

In laboratory experiments we demonstrate that protoplasmic tubes of acellular slime mould \emph{Physarum polycephalum} show current versus voltage profiles consistent with memristive systems and that the effect is due to the living protoplasm of the... Read More about Slime mould memristors.

Designing and evaluating a contextual mobile learning application to support situated learning (2015)
Thesis

This research emerged from seeking to identify ways of getting Human-Computer Interaction Design students into real world environments, similar to those in which they will eventually be designing, thus maximising their ability to identify opportuniti...

A paradigm shift from vehicular ad hoc networks to VANET-based clouds (2015)
Journal Article

Vehicular ad hoc network (VANET) is expected to improve our driving experience through enhanced safety, security, robustness, and infotainment. Nevertheless, despite considerable amount of research, VANET did not make it, at least not on a full scale... Read More about A paradigm shift from vehicular ad hoc networks to VANET-based clouds.

Towards cloud based big data analytics for smart future cities (2015)
Journal Article

© 2015, Khan et al.; licensee Springer. A large amount of land-use, environment, socio-economic, energy and transport data is generated in cities.
