Position paper: Provenance data visualisation for neuroimaging analysis (2014)
Presentation / Conference
Arshad, B., Munir, K., McClatchey, R., & Liaquat Kiani, S. (2014, December). Position paper: Provenance data visualisation for neuroimaging analysis. Paper presented at 12th International Conference on Frontiers of Information Technology (FIT 2014), Islamabad, Pakistan

Visualisation facilitates the understanding of scientific data both through exploration and explanation of visualised data. Provenance contributes to the understanding of data by containing the contributing factors behind a result. With the significa...

Molecular music: Repurposing a mixed quantum-classical atomic dynamics model as an audiovisual instrument (2014)
Presentation / Conference
Hyde, J. I., Mitchell, T. J., Tew, P., & Glowacki, D. R. (2014, December). Molecular music: Repurposing a mixed quantum-classical atomic dynamics model as an audiovisual instrument. Paper presented at 17th Generative Art Conference GA2014, Rome, Italy

Molecular Music is an offshoot of a long-term collaborative project, the multi- award winning danceroom Spectroscopy (dS)[1]. dS has its roots in computational molecular dynamics, and was originally conceived to serve as an interactive platform for m...

Towards cloud based smart cities data security and privacy management (2014)
Presentation / Conference
Khan, Z., Pervez, Z., & Ghafoor, A. (2014, December). Towards cloud based smart cities data security and privacy management. Paper presented at International Workshop on Smart City Clouds: Technologies, Systems and Applications in conjunction with 7th IEEE/ACM Utility and Cloud Computing (UCC), London

Smart cities accumulate and process large amount of data streams which raise security and privacy concerns at individual and community levels. Sizeable attempts have made to ensure security and privacy of inhabitants’ data. However, security and priv... Read More about Towards cloud based smart cities data security and privacy management.

Using space-based downstream services for urban management in smart cities (2014)
Presentation / Conference
Garzon, A., Palacios, M., Pecci, J., Khan, Z., & Ludlow, D. (2014, December). Using space-based downstream services for urban management in smart cities. Paper presented at International Workshop on Smart City Clouds: Technologies, Systems and Applications in conjunction with 7th IEEE/ACM Utility and Cloud Computing (UCC), London, UK

Data collected through remote sensing (for instance geo-satellite) provides necessary stimulus for developing smart solutions for climate change & public health, energy efficiency and land monitoring in an urban environment. The velocity, variety, vo... Read More about Using space-based downstream services for urban management in smart cities.

Scientific workflow repeatability through cloud-aware provenance (2014)
Presentation / Conference
Ahmad, K., McClatchey, R., Munir, K., & Shamdasani, J. (2014, December). Scientific workflow repeatability through cloud-aware provenance. Paper presented at Recomputability 2014 Workshop of the 7th IEEE/ACM International Conference on Utility and Cloud Computing (UCC 2014), London, UK

The transformations, analyses and interpretations of data in scientific workflows are vital for the repeatability and reliability of scientific workflows. This provenance of scientific workflows has been effectively carried out in Grid based scientif... Read More about Scientific workflow repeatability through cloud-aware provenance.

The Physarum polycephalum actin network: Formalisation, topology and morphological correlates with computational ability (2014)
Presentation / Conference
Mayne, R., & Adamatzky, A. (2014, December). The Physarum polycephalum actin network: Formalisation, topology and morphological correlates with computational ability. Presented at BICT 2014, Boston, USA

The plasmodial form of slime mould Physarum polycephalum is a macroscopic acellular organism that is capable of apparently intelligent behaviour, yet it lacks any features usually associated with intelligence. In this investigation, we study the morp... Read More about The Physarum polycephalum actin network: Formalisation, topology and morphological correlates with computational ability.

Squishy logic (2014)
Presentation / Conference
Battle, S. (2014, November). Squishy logic. Presented at DigiMakers, At-Bristol, UK

Based on the idea of ‘Squishy Circuits’ from the Playful Learning Lab at the University of St. Thomas (Minnesota), we’re using conductive play dough to create simple logic circuits – AND, OR, and NOT gates – from which computers are built.

Advancing underutilized crops knowledge using SWRL-enabled ontologies - A survey and early experiment (2014)
Presentation / Conference
Lawan, A., Rakib, A., Alechina, N., & Karunaratne, A. (2014, November). Advancing underutilized crops knowledge using SWRL-enabled ontologies - A survey and early experiment. Paper presented at 4th Joint International Semantic Technology Conference, JIST 2014, Chiang Mai, Thailand, November 9-11, 2014., Chiang Mai, Thailand

Due to their powerful knowledge representation formalism and associated inference mechanisms, ontology-based approaches have been increasingly adopted to formally represent domain knowledge. We propose the use of ontologies to advance knowledge-shari... Read More about Advancing underutilized crops knowledge using SWRL-enabled ontologies - A survey and early experiment.
