Application and analysis of private matching schemes based on commutative cryptosystems. (2009)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kwecka, Z., Buchanan, W. J., & Spiers, D. A. (2009). Application and analysis of private matching schemes based on commutative cryptosystems.

Privacy issues are becoming a key focus with software systems. Surveys show that the invasion of privacy is among the things peo-ple fear the most from the coming years. These fears seem to be justified, in the light of recent events involving the UK... Read More about Application and analysis of private matching schemes based on commutative cryptosystems..

Modelling motorcycles driving cycles and emissions in Edinburgh (2009)
Thesis
Kumar, R. Modelling motorcycles driving cycles and emissions in Edinburgh. (Thesis). Edinburgh Napier University. Retrieved from http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/id/eprint/3047

The level of ownership and use of motorcycling has increased rapidly in Edinburgh and the UK in the last ten years. In this study, motorcycle driving cycles (rural and urban) were developed for Edinburgh (Edinburgh Motorcycle Driving cycle-EMDC). The...

JCSP agents-based service discovery for pervasive computing. (2009)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kosek, A., Kerridge, J., Syed, A., & Armitage, A. (2009). JCSP agents-based service discovery for pervasive computing. In P. H. Welch, H. Roebbers, J. F. Broenink, F. R. M. Barnes, C. G. Ritson, A. T. Sampson, & G. S. Vinter (Eds.), Communicating Process

Device and service discovery is a very important topic when considering pervasive environments. The discovery mechanism is required to work in networks with dynamic topology and on limited software, and be able to accept different device descriptions...

A Perspective on Middleware-Oriented Context-Aware Pervasive Systems (2009)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Jaroucheh, Z., Liu, X., & Smith, S. (2009). A Perspective on Middleware-Oriented Context-Aware Pervasive Systems. In Proceedings - International Computer Software and Applications Conference (249-254). https://doi.org/10.1109/compsac.2009.142

The evolving concepts of mobile computing, context-awareness, and ambient intelligence are increasingly influencing user's experience of services. Therefore, the goal of this paper is to provide an overview of recent developments and implementations... Read More about A Perspective on Middleware-Oriented Context-Aware Pervasive Systems.

Soft-sphere soft glasses. (2009)
Journal Article
Heyes, D. M., Clarke, S. M., & Brańka, A. C. (2009). Soft-sphere soft glasses. Journal of Chemical Physics, 131, 204506. https://doi.org/10.1063/1.3266845

Molecular dynamics simulations have been used to compute physical properties of model fluids in which the particles interacted via the soft-sphere pair potential (SSP) ϕ(r)=ϵ(σ/r) n , where ϵ and σ are the characteristic energy and distance, respe... Read More about Soft-sphere soft glasses..

Analyzing communication in a complex service process: an application of triangulation in a case study of the Scottish Prison Service. (2009)
Journal Article
Hancock, P. G., & Raeside, R. (2009). Analyzing communication in a complex service process: an application of triangulation in a case study of the Scottish Prison Service. Journal of Applied Security Research, 4, 291-308. https://doi.org/10.1080/19361610902930071

This article highlights the role of statistical analysis in clarifying the flow of communication embedded in a complex service process within the Scottish Prison Service (SPS). Using triangulation techniques in a case study of a selected SPS site, it...
