Chaos-based diffusion for highly autocorrelated data in encryption algorithms (2015)
Journal Article
Ahmad, J., & Hwang, S. O. (2015). Chaos-based diffusion for highly autocorrelated data in encryption algorithms. Nonlinear Dynamics, 82(4), 1839-1850. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11071-015-2281-0

In a single substitution box, the same regions (pixels) of an image are encrypted to one unique symbol. To reduce this type of autocorrelation in data, chaos has been extensively applied over the last decade. By using chaotic maps, a single substitut...

Adaptive rendering with linear predictions (2015)
Journal Article
Moon, B., Iglesias-Guitian, J. A., Yoon, S.-E., & Mitchell, K. (2015). Adaptive rendering with linear predictions. ACM transactions on graphics, 34(4), 121:1-121:11. https://doi.org/10.1145/2766992

We propose a new adaptive rendering algorithm that enhances the
performance of Monte Carlo ray tracing by reducing the noise, i.e.,
variance, while preserving a variety of high-frequency edges in rendered
images through a novel prediction based re... Read More about Adaptive rendering with linear predictions.

Manufacture of solid oxide fuel cells using electroless c0deposition - a review of work carried out at Edinburgh Napier University. (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Davidson, A., Wilson, C., & Shearer, N. (2015, July). Manufacture of solid oxide fuel cells using electroless c0deposition - a review of work carried out at Edinburgh Napier University. Paper presented at ECS COnference on Electrochemical Energy Conversion & Storage with SOFC_XIV

This paper reviews work carried out at Edinburgh Napier University on the manufacture of anodes and cathodes for solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) using electroless co-deposition of nickel and ceramic powders. Most of the work has been focused on anodes... Read More about Manufacture of solid oxide fuel cells using electroless c0deposition - a review of work carried out at Edinburgh Napier University..

A model of bus bunching under reliability-based passenger arrival patterns. (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Fonzone, A., Schmöcker, J.-D., & Liu, R. (2015, August). A model of bus bunching under reliability-based passenger arrival patterns. Presented at 21st International Symposium on Transportation and Traffic Theory, Kobe, Japan

If bus service departure times are not completely unknown to the passengers, non-uniform passenger arrival patterns can be expected. We propose that passengers decide their arrival time at stops based on a continuous logit model that considers the ri...

A Market Analysis of Urban Interaction Design. (2015)
Book Chapter
Zaffiro, G., Bracuto, M., Brynskov, M., & Smyth, M. (2015). A Market Analysis of Urban Interaction Design. In Cpmmunications in Computer and Information Science: HCI International 2015 - Posters’ Extended Abstracts (587-591). Springer. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-21383-5_98

Urban Interaction Design draws upon knowledge and approaches from a range of disciplines involved in the design of urban spaces, connecting them and establishing their interactions as a principle. It is also rooted in the wider field of interaction d... Read More about A Market Analysis of Urban Interaction Design..

Real-time monitoring of privacy abuses and intrusion detection in android system (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Li, S., Chen, J., Spyridopoulos, T., Andriotis, P., Ludwiniak, R., & Russell, G. (2015, August). Real-time monitoring of privacy abuses and intrusion detection in android system. Presented at International Conference on Human Aspects of Information Security, Privacy, and Trust, Los Angeles, CA, USA

In this paper, we investigated the definition of privacy, privacy abuse behaviours, and the privacy abuse in Android systems, which may be very useful for identifying the malicious apps from 'normal' apps. We also investigated the injection technolog... Read More about Real-time monitoring of privacy abuses and intrusion detection in android system.

Ashley Madison breach reveals the rise of the moralist hacker (2015)
Newspaper / Magazine
Buchanan, W. J. (2015). Ashley Madison breach reveals the rise of the moralist hacker

There’s value in more than just credit card data, as Avid Life Media (ALM), parent company of the extramarital affair website Ashley Madison, has found out after being raided for millions of their customer’s details. All sorts of information that isn... Read More about Ashley Madison breach reveals the rise of the moralist hacker.

How do public libraries demonstrate their impact upon citizenship development in the UK? : results of a focus group methodology. (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Appleton, L., Hall, H., Duff, A., & Raeside, R. (2015, July). How do public libraries demonstrate their impact upon citizenship development in the UK? : results of a focus group methodology. Paper presented at 11th Northumbria International Conference on Performance Management in Libraries and Information Services

There is a general acceptance that public libraries contribute to ‘community’, and at least have the potential to have a very positive impact on civil society. (Varheim, 2007). As both a central meeting space, and a place from which public services a...

Defining Acceptable Interaction for Universal Access (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Keates, S. (2015). Defining Acceptable Interaction for Universal Access. In M. Antona, & C. Stephanidis (Eds.), Universal Access in Human-Computer Interaction. Access to Today's Technologies (54-63). https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-20678-3_6

Many new assistive input systems developed to meet the needs of users with functional impairments fail to make it out of the research laboratory and into regular use by the intended users. This paper examines some of the reasons for this and focuses... Read More about Defining Acceptable Interaction for Universal Access.

Body-worn sensors in Parkinson's disease: evaluating their acceptability to patients (2015)
Journal Article
Fisher, J. M., Hammerla, N. Y., Rochester, L., Andras, P., & Walker, R. W. (2016). Body-worn sensors in Parkinson's disease: evaluating their acceptability to patients. Telemedicine and e-Health, 22(1), 63-69. https://doi.org/10.1089/tmj.2015.0026

Background:Remote monitoring of symptoms in Parkinson's disease (PD) using body-worn sensors would assist treatment decisions and evaluation of new treatments. To date, a rigorous, systematic evaluation of the acceptability of body-worn sensors in PD... Read More about Body-worn sensors in Parkinson's disease: evaluating their acceptability to patients.
