Conference Proceeding
Chatzimichali, A., & Tourassis, V. (2007). An empirical investigation of learning curve laws in the tile manufacturing industry. . https://doi.org/10.1109/IEEM.2007.4419364

The ceramic tile manufacturing industry is under constant strain today due to the competitive environment worldwide and to the changing patterns of consumer behavior. Despite its highly automated production lines, the industry is becoming less of a m... Read More about An empirical investigation of learning curve laws in the tile manufacturing industry.

A method for finding implicating rules based on the genetic algorithm (2007)
Conference Proceeding
Jun, Z., Shu-you, L., Hong-yan, M., & Liu, H. X. (2007). A method for finding implicating rules based on the genetic algorithm. In Third International Conference on Natural Computation (ICNC 2007) (400-405). https://doi.org/10.1109/ICNC.2007.61

In information system, some rules have implicating relations (called implicating rules), but some rules have not. An approach of finding implicating rules based on the genetic algorithm is proposed. Some properties of independence and correlation of... Read More about A method for finding implicating rules based on the genetic algorithm.

On detecting packets droppers in MANET: A novel low cost approach (2007)
Conference Proceeding
Fahad, T., Djenouri, D., & Askwith, R. (2007). On detecting packets droppers in MANET: A novel low cost approach. https://doi.org/10.1109/ias.2007.47

One of the commonest threats that mobile ad hoc networks are vulnerable to is data packet dropping, which is caused either by malicious or selfish nodes. Most of the existing solutions to solve such misbehaviour rely on the watchdog technique, which... Read More about On detecting packets droppers in MANET: A novel low cost approach.

A new low cost sessions-based misbehaviour detection protocol (SMDP) for MANET (2007)
Conference Proceeding
Fahad, T., Djenouri, D., Askwith, R., & Merabti, M. (2007). A new low cost sessions-based misbehaviour detection protocol (SMDP) for MANET. https://doi.org/10.1109/ainaw.2007.34

There is a strong motivation for a node to deny packet forwarding to others and being selfish in MANET. Recently, some solutions have been proposed, but almost all of these solutions rely on the watchdog technique, which suffers from many drawbacks,...

Toward a better understanding of rule initialisation and deletion (2007)
Conference Proceeding
Kovacs, T., & Bull, L. (2007). Toward a better understanding of rule initialisation and deletion. In H. Lipson (Ed.), Proceedings of the 2007 GECCO Conference on Genetic and Evolutionary Computation (2777-2780). https://doi.org/10.1145/1274000.1274060

A number of heuristics have been used in Learning Classifier Systems to initialise parameters of new rules, to adjust fitness of parent rules when they generate offspring, and to select rules for deletion. Some have not been studied in the literature... Read More about Toward a better understanding of rule initialisation and deletion.

On securing MANET routing protocol against control packet dropping (2007)
Conference Proceeding
Djenouri, D., Mahmoudi, O., Bouamama, M., Llewellyn-Jones, D., & Merabti, M. (2007). On securing MANET routing protocol against control packet dropping. https://doi.org/10.1109/perser.2007.4283899

In this manuscript we deal with securing routing protocols of mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) against packet dropping misbehavior. More specifically, we propose a solution to protect control packets of reactive source routing protocols against. Most...

Computational and theoretical perspectives on recognition-primed decision making (2007)
Conference Proceeding
Warwick, W., & Hutton, R. (2007). Computational and theoretical perspectives on recognition-primed decision making. In R. R. Hoffman (Ed.), Expertise Out of Context

A theme of chapters in this volume is the question of how experts cope with challenging, rare, or unusual problems, whether their expertise can transfer to novel situations, and how expertise can accommodate dynamic and uncertain situations. The goal... Read More about Computational and theoretical perspectives on recognition-primed decision making.
