Fault-tolerant peer-to-peer search on small-world networks (2007)
Journal Article
Liu, L., Antonopoulos, N., & Mackin, S. (2007). Fault-tolerant peer-to-peer search on small-world networks. Future Generation Computer Systems, 23(8), 921-931. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.future.2007.03.002

This paper presents a small world architecture for P2P networks (SWAN) for content discovery in multi-group P2P systems. A semi-structured P2P algorithm of SWAN is utilized to create and find long-range shortcuts toward remote peer groups. In SWAN, n...

Work-life balancing strategies used by women managers in British ‘modern’ universities. (2007)
Journal Article
Woodward, D. (2007). Work-life balancing strategies used by women managers in British ‘modern’ universities. Equal Opportunities International, 26, 6-17. https://doi.org/10.1108/02610150710726507

The “work-life balance” literature is mainly concerned with the provision and up-take of flexible employment patterns. The purpose of this qualitative study of women managers' coping strategies for reconciling work with their other roles and responsi...

Induction of apoptosis with tobacco smoke and related products in A549 lung epithelial cells in vitro (2006)
Journal Article
Ramage, L., Jones, A. C., & Whelan, C. J. (2006). Induction of apoptosis with tobacco smoke and related products in A549 lung epithelial cells in vitro. Journal of Inflammation, 3(1), 3. https://doi.org/10.1186/1476-9255-3-3

Background This study has investigated the ability of tobacco smoke, and ingredients of tobacco smoke, to induce apoptosis in the airway epithelial cell line A549. Method A549 cells were treated with 80 μg/ml Tobacco smoke condensate (TSC), 10 mM...

Belonging and otherness: sex equality in banking in Turkey and Britain. (2004)
Journal Article
Woodward, D., & Ozbilgin, M. (2004). Belonging and otherness: sex equality in banking in Turkey and Britain. Gender, Work and Organization, 11(6), 668-688. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1468-0432.2004.00254.x

The struggle for sex equality at work has largely been achieved in the developed world, it is claimed. The number of well-qualified young women entering white-collar employment and achieving promotion to first-line and middle management positions now...

Leading the way: women’s experiences as sports coaches (2001)
Journal Article
Woodward, D., Brackenridge, C., Green, E., & West, A. (2001). Leading the way: women’s experiences as sports coaches. Women In Management Review, 16(2), 85-92. https://doi.org/10.1108/09649420110386610

Explores women's under-representation from sports coaching roles in general and from high status roles in particular. In-depth interviews were carried out with 20 women who coached one of the following sports: cricket, gymnastics, netball, squash or...

Choice of spectroscopic line shape model affects metabolite peak areas and area ratios. (2000)
Journal Article
Marshall, I., Bruce, S. D., Higinbotham, J., MacLullich, A., Wardlaw, J. M., Ferguson, K. J., & Seckl, J. (2000). Choice of spectroscopic line shape model affects metabolite peak areas and area ratios. Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, 44, 646-649. doi:10.1002/1522-2594(200010)44:43.0.CO;2-0

The use of Lorentzian model lineshapes leads to systematic errors in the quantification of in vivo (1)H NMR spectra. Experimental lineshapes are better modeled by the Voigt (mixed Lorentzian-Gaussian) function, leading to more accurate fits (reduced...

Library and information services in support of the Transport Research Institute (TRI), Napier University, 1996 - 1999. (1999)
Journal Article
Cumming, D. A. (1999). Library and information services in support of the Transport Research Institute (TRI), Napier University, 1996 - 1999. SCONUL Newsletter, 55-62

The paper reviews experimental library initiatives in support of the first multi-disciplinary research pillar created in Napier University. Liaison, service planning input, and user consultation are shown to have been valuable in creating appropriate...

Use of Voigt line shape for quantification of in Vivo ‘H spectra. (1997)
Journal Article
Marshall, I., Higinbotham, J., Bruce, S. D., & Freise, A. (1997). Use of Voigt line shape for quantification of in Vivo ‘H spectra. Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, 37, 651-657. https://doi.org/10.1002/mrm.1910370504

Quantification of NMR visible metabolites by spectral modeling usually assumes a Lorentzian or Gaussian lineshape, despite the fact that experimental lineshapes are neither. To minimize systematic fitting errors, a mixed Lorentzian-Gaussian (Voig... Read More about Use of Voigt line shape for quantification of in Vivo ‘H spectra..
