A statistics-based genetic algorithm for quality improvements of power supplies (2009)
Journal Article

This paper presents a new statistics-based evolutionary algorithm to improve the qualities of power supplies, in which operational costs and the stability of the power supply are optimised to provide a highly smooth but low-cost power supply service...

An exploration of the literature on the use of 'swarm intelligence-based techniques' for public service problems (2009)
Journal Article

The importance of studying public service systems and finding robust solutions to the problems encountered in public service management has increased considerably over the past decade. One of the main objectives is to find acceptable solutions to Pub... Read More about An exploration of the literature on the use of 'swarm intelligence-based techniques' for public service problems.

HGF/Met signalling promotes PGE2 biogenesis via regulation of COX-2 and 15-PGDH expression in colorectal cancer cells (2009)
Journal Article

Evidence points towards a pivotal role for cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 in promoting colorectal tumorigenesis through increasing prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) levels. PGE2 signalling is closely associated with the survival, proliferation and invasion of colorect...
