Performance of deterministic and adaptive broadcast algorithms in multicomputer networks (2006)
Journal Article
Al-Dubai, A. (2006). Performance of deterministic and adaptive broadcast algorithms in multicomputer networks. International Journal of High Performance Computing and Networking, 4, 152-160. https://doi.org/10.1504/IJHPCN.2006.010637

This paper examines the performance of broadcast communication on multicomputer networks. Unlike many existing works, this study considers a number of key factors/prosperities, including scalability, parallelism and routing scheme that could greatly...

Tutorial chat: a case study of synchronous communication in a learning environment. (2006)
Journal Article
Rutter, M. (2006). Tutorial chat: a case study of synchronous communication in a learning environment. ALT-J : Association for Learning Technology journal, 14, 169-181. https://doi.org/10.1080/09687760600668594

This case study describes the use of a web-based synchronous chat application, run during computing tutorials. The chat room was moderated by a paid demonstrator, who assisted and encouraged students whenever possible. Most of the discussion was ba...

A standard data model representation for taxonomic information. (2006)
Journal Article
Kennedy, J., Hyam, R., Kukla, R., & Paterson, T. (2006). A standard data model representation for taxonomic information. OMICS, 10, 220-230. https://doi.org/10.1089/omi.2006.10.220

The names used by biologists to label the observations they make are imprecise. This is an issue as workers increasingly seek to exploit data gathered from multiple, unrelated sources on line. Even when the international codes of nomenclature are fol... Read More about A standard data model representation for taxonomic information..
