Machine independent algorithm for concurrent finite-element problems (1996)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Buchanan, W. J., & Gupta, N. K. (1996). Machine independent algorithm for concurrent finite-element problems. In 3rd International IEEE Conference on Computation in Electromagnetics, 1996 (17-20). https://doi.org/10.1049/cp%3A19960150

The finite-element method, initially developed for mechanical and civil engineering applications, is now applied to electromagnetics. This paper describes how parallel processing applies to finite-element simulations. The methods discussed are the pa...

Application of 3D finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method to predict radiation from a PCB with high speed pulse propagation. (1994)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Buchanan, W. J., Gupta, N. K., & Arnold, J. M. (1994, September). Application of 3D finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method to predict radiation from a PCB with high speed pulse propagation

The authors have applied the 3D FDTD technique to simulate the propagation of electrical signals within printed circuit boards (PCBs). This relates to the work currently being carried out into the propagation of very high speed digital pulses in PCBs...

Simulation of radiation from a microstrip antenna using three-dimensional finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method. (1993)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Buchanan, W. J., Gupta, N. K., & Arnold, J. M. (1993). Simulation of radiation from a microstrip antenna using three-dimensional finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method.

The authors have used the FDTD method to model and predict the radiation patterns from a microstrip antenna. One problem in modelling microstrip antennas is that these structures are highly resonant. The authors have described techniques to reduce th... Read More about Simulation of radiation from a microstrip antenna using three-dimensional finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method..

Simulation of three-dimensional finite-difference time-domain method on limited memory systems. (1991)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Buchanan, W. J., & Gupta, N. K. (1991). Simulation of three-dimensional finite-difference time-domain method on limited memory systems.

The authors discuss techniques in the modelling of electromagnetic fields using finite difference time domain (FDTD) methods applied to 80×86-based PCs or limited memory computers. Electrical modelling of structures is currently carried out mainly in... Read More about Simulation of three-dimensional finite-difference time-domain method on limited memory systems..

Who would you trust to identify you in accessing your health record?
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Buchanan, W. J., Anderson, C., Smales, A., Varga, J., Burns, N., Uthmani, O., …Lawson, A. Who would you trust to identify you in accessing your health record?

Within health and social care there is a strong need to provide access to highly sensitive information, and one which requires high levels of identity assurance. This paper outlines a joint project between Edinburgh Napier University and miiCard [10]... Read More about Who would you trust to identify you in accessing your health record?.

Evaluating Tooling and Methodology when Analysing Bitcoin Mixing Services After Forensic Seizure
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Young, E. H., Chrysoulas, C., Pitropakis, N., Papadopoulos, P., & Buchanan, W. J. (2021, October). Evaluating Tooling and Methodology when Analysing Bitcoin Mixing Services After Forensic Seizure. Paper presented at International Conference on Data Analytics for Business and Industry (ICDABI) 2021 - (DATA'21), Online

Little or no research has been directed to analysis and researching forensic analysis of the Bitcoin mixing or 'tumbling' service themselves. This work is intended to examine effective tooling and methodology for recovering forensic artifacts from tw...
