Learning to solve bin packing problems with an immune inspired hyper-heuristic. (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Sim, K., Hart, E., & Paechter, B. (2013, September). Learning to solve bin packing problems with an immune inspired hyper-heuristic

Motivated by the natural immune system's ability to defend the body by generating and maintaining a repertoire of antibodies that collectively cover the potential pathogen space, we describe an artificial system that discovers and maintains a reperto...

Construction and form-finding of a post-formed timber grid-shell. (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Pone, S., Colabella, S., Parenti, B., Lancia, D., Fiore, A., D'Amico, B., Portioli, F., Landolfo, R., D'Aniello, M., & Ceraldi, C. (2013, July). Construction and form-finding of a post-formed timber grid-shell

In this paper, the design procedure and construction phases of a post-formed timber grid-shell are described. For form-finding and verification of structural safety, two different numerical models were developed. A particle-springs system tool was...

Timber Post-formed Gridshell: Digital Form-finding / drawing and building tool. (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Pone, S., Colabella, S., D'Amico, B., Fiore, A., Lancia, D., & Parenti, B. (2013). Timber Post-formed Gridshell: Digital Form-finding / drawing and building tool.

Summary: This research deals with design, structural analysis and construction of timber post-formed gridshells. Starting from the scale modelling experience, from 1:20 to 1:1 scale, a digital form-finding strategy was early developed with a Building...

Value chain management: an illustration using variability mapping and decision frontier analysis. (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Pearson, M. (2013). Value chain management: an illustration using variability mapping and decision frontier analysis.

We address uncertainty and confusion in value chain management through the use of recently developed phase plane and decision frontier analysis. The new methodology enables the distinction between the concept of local, self-inflicted, uncertainty and...

An investigation into PL/SQL Injection. (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Paterson, R., & Leimich, P. (2013, June). An investigation into PL/SQL Injection. Presented at CyberForensics 2013: 3rd International Conference on Cybercrime, Security and Digital Forensics

SQL injection is a common attack method used to leverage infor-mation out of a database or to compromise a company’s network. This paper investigates four injection attacks that can be conducted against the PL/SQL engine of Oracle databases, comparin... Read More about An investigation into PL/SQL Injection..

An innovative design tool for optimisation of timber structures. (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Menendez, J. (2013). An innovative design tool for optimisation of timber structures. In Young Researchers' Conference (81)

The purpose of this research project is to provide structural engineers with a user-friendly tool for the design of timber structures. This application also facilitates real-time structural optimisation by updating the latest research findings on inn...

Young people’s perceptions of computing careers. (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
McEwan, T., & McConnell, A. (2013). Young people’s perceptions of computing careers. In Frontiers in Education Conference, 2013 IEEE (1597-1603). https://doi.org/10.1109/FIE.2013.6685108

Recruitment into computing-related undergraduate degree courses is challenging in several countries. This is despite employers reporting skills shortages, and the sector generally offering better salaries than for graduates of more popular courses. T...

Commercial Competency and computing students: using the Skills Framework for the Information Age in higher education. (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
McEwan, T. (2013). Commercial Competency and computing students: using the Skills Framework for the Information Age in higher education. In Frontiers in Education Conference, 2013 IEEE (286-292). https://doi.org/10.1109/FIE.2013.6684833

Commercial acumen has emerged recently as a third aspect of employability which employers expect from computing graduates, in addition to technical capability and "soft skills" (or similar terms like transferable skills). Our experience has been that... Read More about Commercial Competency and computing students: using the Skills Framework for the Information Age in higher education..
