Mass customisation through personalised brochures: the role of digital printing. (2007)
Journal Article
Migas, N., Anastasiadou, C., & Buchanan, W. J. (2007). Mass customisation through personalised brochures: the role of digital printing. Information Systems,

This paper argues that despite the wide adoption of Internet technologies in destination marketing, information is still disseminated through printed brochures that have largely remained unchanged and unaffected by the trend towards greater personali...

Visual Exploration of Alternative Taxonomies through Concepts (2007)
Journal Article
Graham, M., & Kennedy, J. (2007). Visual Exploration of Alternative Taxonomies through Concepts. Ecological Informatics, 2, 248-261. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ecoinf.2007.07.004

A graphical user interface is presented that allows users of taxonomic data to explore concept relationships between conflicting but related taxonomic classifications. Ecological analyses that use taxonomic metadata depend on accurate naming of spe... Read More about Visual Exploration of Alternative Taxonomies through Concepts.

Exploring multiple trees through DAG representations (2007)
Journal Article
Graham, M., & Kennedy, J. (2007). Exploring multiple trees through DAG representations. IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics, 13, 1294-1301. https://doi.org/10.1109/TVCG.2007.70556

We present a Directed Acyclic Graph visualisation designed to allow interaction with a set of multiple classification trees, specifically to find overlaps and differences between groups of trees and individual trees. The work is motivated by the need... Read More about Exploring multiple trees through DAG representations.

An application of caricature: How to improve the recognition of facial composites (2007)
Journal Article
Frowd, C., Bruce, V., Ross, D., McIntyre, A., & Hancock, P. J. B. (2007). An application of caricature: How to improve the recognition of facial composites. Visual Cognition, 15(8), 954-984. https://doi.org/10.1080/13506280601058951

Facial caricatures exaggerate the distinctive features of a face and may elevate the recognition of a familiar face. We investigate whether the recognition of facial composites, or pictures of criminal faces, could be similarly enhanced. In this stud...

Fast and effective feedback: are model answers the answer? (2007)
Journal Article
Huxham, M. (2007). Fast and effective feedback: are model answers the answer?. Assessment and Evaluation in Higher Education, 32(6), (601-611). doi:10.1080/02602930601116946. ISSN 0260-2938

Feedback to students is essential for effective learning, but there is little empirical information on what kind of feedback is best. This study compares student responses and performance after receiving two types of feedback, that provided by model... Read More about Fast and effective feedback: are model answers the answer?.

Finding feasible timetables using group-based operators. (2007)
Journal Article
Lewis, R. M. R., & Paechter, B. (2007). Finding feasible timetables using group-based operators. IEEE Transactions on Evolutionary Computation, 11, 397-413. https://doi.org/10.1109/TEVC.2006.885162

This paper describes the applicability of the so-called "grouping genetic algorithm" to a well-known version of the university course timetabling problem. We note that there are, in fact, various scaling up issues surrounding this sort of algorithm a... Read More about Finding feasible timetables using group-based operators..

Social software as support in hybrid learning environments: the value of the blog as a tool for reflective learning and peer support. (2007)
Journal Article
Hall, H., & Davison, B. (2007). Social software as support in hybrid learning environments: the value of the blog as a tool for reflective learning and peer support. Library and Information Science Research, 29(2), 163-187. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.lisr.2007.04.007

This article reports on an investigation of blog technology's potential for encouraging interaction between students, and its consequences in terms of peer learning and peer support, on a module of an accredited library and information science (LIS)...

KM culture and compromise - interventions to promote knowledge sharing supported by technology in corporate environments. (2007)
Journal Article
Hall, H., & Goody, M. (2007). KM culture and compromise - interventions to promote knowledge sharing supported by technology in corporate environments. Journal of Information Science, 33(2), 181-188. https://doi.org/10.1177/0165551506070708

The theme of knowledge sharing is discussed extensively in the knowledge management literature. Such work tends to focus on the barriers that impede knowledge sharing activity. Of these “culture” is commonly cited as a major obstacle. This article ex...
