A model-driven privacy compliance decision support for medical data sharing in Europe (2011)
Journal Article

Objectives: Clinical practitioners and medical researchers often have to share health data with other colleagues across Europe. Privacy compliance in this context is very important but challenging. Automated privacy guidelines are a practical way of... Read More about A model-driven privacy compliance decision support for medical data sharing in Europe.

Risk-driven compliant access controls for clouds (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

There is widespread agreement that cloud computing have proven cost cutting and agility benefits. However, security and regulatory compliance issues are continuing to challenge the wide acceptance of such technology both from social and commercial st...

An architecture for integrated intelligence in urban management using cloud computing (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

With the existence of new methodologies and technologies it has now become possible to manage large amounts of environmental sensing data and apply new integrated computing models to acquire information intelligence. This paper advocates the applicat... Read More about An architecture for integrated intelligence in urban management using cloud computing.

Towards context caching in the clouds (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Context information is traditionally collected from distributed digital artifacts and services and made available to similarly distributed, and often mobile, context consuming applications via context brokers or servers. Contextual data has a strong... Read More about Towards context caching in the clouds.

Translating RAD business process mModels into to BPMN models (2011)
Journal Article

Modelling business processes using BPMN has been emerging as the preferred choice for organisations seeking to enact their business processes in service-oriented environments. However, a number of organisations have their business processes modelled... Read More about Translating RAD business process mModels into to BPMN models.

Logic for coalitions with bounded resources (2011)
Journal Article

Recent work on Alternating-Time Temporal Logic and Coalition Logic has allowed the expression of many interesting properties of coalitions and strategies. However, there is no natural way of expressing resource requirements in these logics. In this a... Read More about Logic for coalitions with bounded resources.

Context parsing, processing and distribution in clouds (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

"Maybe it becomes a buddy, but do not call it a robot" - Seamless cooperation between companion robotics and smart homes (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This paper describes the findings arising from ongoing qualitative usability evaluation studies on mobile companion robotics in smart home environments from two research projects focused on socio-technical innovation to support independent living (Co...

Logical and arithmetic circuits in Belousov-Zhabotinsky encapsulated disks (2011)
Journal Article

Excitation waves on a subexcitable Belousov-Zhabotinsky (BZ) substrate can be manipulated by chemical variations in the substrate and by interactions with other waves. Symbolic assignment and interpretation of wave dynamics can be used to perform log... Read More about Logical and arithmetic circuits in Belousov-Zhabotinsky encapsulated disks.

Verifying requirements for resource-bounded agents (2011)
Thesis

This thesis presents frameworks for the modelling and verification of resource-bounded reasoning agents. The resources considered include the time, memory, and communication bandwidth required by agents to achieve a goal. The scalability and expressi...

Provenance management for neuroimaging workflows in neuGrid (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

A criteria for selecting background knowledge for domain specific semantic matching (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Semantic annotation for indexing archaeological context: A prototype development and evaluation (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

The paper discusses the process of developing Semantic Annotations, a form of metadata for assigning conceptual entities to textual instances, in this case archaeological grey literature. The use of Information Extraction (IE), a Natural Language Pro... Read More about Semantic annotation for indexing archaeological context: A prototype development and evaluation.

On computing in fine-grained compartmentalised Belousov-Zhabotinsky medium (2011)
Journal Article

We introduce results of computer experiments on information processing in a hexagonal array of vesicles filled with Belousov-Zhabotinsky (BZ) solution in a sub-excitable mode. We represent values of Boolean variables by excitation wave-fragments and... Read More about On computing in fine-grained compartmentalised Belousov-Zhabotinsky medium.

Bridging the gap between business process models and service-oriented architectures with reference to the grid environment (2011)
Journal Article

In recent years, organisations have been seeking technological solutions for enacting their business process models using ad-hoc and heuristic approaches. However, limited results have been obtained due to the expansion of business processes across g...

Cameras as cultural probes in requirements gathering - Exploring their potential in supporting the design of assistive technology (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

A pre-requisite for a human-centred design approach to technology development is gaining an intimate understanding of not only the people for whom the technology is being designed, but also the contexts within which they will be using it. This paper... Read More about Cameras as cultural probes in requirements gathering - Exploring their potential in supporting the design of assistive technology.

Facilitating business process discovery using email analysis (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Integrated urban management: “Win-win” solutions (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Analysis of urban challenges, from a sustainable development perspective, emphasise the interconnected nature of the challenges, reflecting the ecosystems perspective on the city. Key political concerns with climate change greenhouse gas emissions, e... Read More about Integrated urban management: “Win-win” solutions.

Fuzzy dynamical genetic programming in XCSF (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

A number of representation schemes have been presented for use within Learning Classifier Systems, ranging from binary encodings to Neural Networks, and more recently Dynamical Genetic Programming (DGP). This paper presents results from an investigat... Read More about Fuzzy dynamical genetic programming in XCSF.

Analysis of the energy conservation aspects of a mobile context broker (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Mobile devices are increasingly becoming the main mean of interaction for inhabitants of ubiquitous computing environments. Pervasiveness of these devices as users’ personal gadgets and their high-tech capabilities allow capturing of broad contextual...
