Presentation / Conference Contribution
(2011, October). BioVis 2011 Conference Proceedings

The rapidly expanding field of biology creates enormous challenges for computational visualization techniques for enabling researchers to gain insight from their large and highly complex data sets. The goal of the BioVis 2011 symposium is to create t... Read More about BioVis 2011 Conference Proceedings..

Can Skype be used beyond video calling? (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Exarchakos, G., Menkovski, V., & Liotta, A. (2011). Can Skype be used beyond video calling?. In Proceedings of the 9th International Conference on Advances in Mobile Computing and Multimedia (155-161). https://doi.org/10.1145/2095697.2095725

Skype nodes generate a substantial part of real-time bi-directional video traffic nowadays. Employing a range of adaptive mechanisms, the application configures video streaming to meet the requirements of the communication and constraints of the unde...

Towards neuro-silicon interface using reconfigurable dynamic clamping (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Luo, J. W., Mak, T., Yu, B., Andras, P., & Yakovlev, A. (2011, August). Towards neuro-silicon interface using reconfigurable dynamic clamping. Presented at 2011 Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, Boston, MA, USA

Dynamic clamp emerges as an important apparatus to study the intrinsic neuronal properties through close-loop interactions between models and biological neurons. Modelling large-scale neuronal networks in software will result in significant computati... Read More about Towards neuro-silicon interface using reconfigurable dynamic clamping.

Strengthening the links between research and practice: the Research in Librarianship - Impact Evaluation Study (RiLIES) (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Hall, H. (2011, December). Strengthening the links between research and practice: the Research in Librarianship - Impact Evaluation Study (RiLIES). Paper presented at Online 2011

The Research in Librarianship – Impact Evaluation Project (RiLIES – pronounced “realise”) completed in August 2011 explored the extent to which funded librarianship research projects influence library practice in the UK. Of particular interest in the... Read More about Strengthening the links between research and practice: the Research in Librarianship - Impact Evaluation Study (RiLIES).

SimConnector: An approach to testing disaster-alerting systems using agent based simulation models (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Niazi, M., Siddique, Q., Hussain, A., & Fortino, G. (2011, September). SimConnector: An approach to testing disaster-alerting systems using agent based simulation models. Presented at 2011 Federated Conference on Computer Science and Information Systems (FedCSIS), Szczecin, Poland

The design, development and testing of intelligent disaster detection and alerting systems pose a set of non-trivial problems. Not only are such systems difficult to design as they need to accurately predict real-world outcomes using a distributed se...

Ontology-driven cardiovascular decision support system (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Farooq, K., Hussain, A., Leslie, S., Eckl, C., & Slack, W. (2011, May). Ontology-driven cardiovascular decision support system. Presented at 2011 5th International Conference on Pervasive Computing Technologies for Healthcare (PervasiveHealth) and Workshops, Dublin, Ireland

We discuss work-in-progress and propose an ontology driven framework for the development of a clinical expert system for chest pain risk assessment. The framework has the following key components: adaptive questionnaire, patient medical history, risk... Read More about Ontology-driven cardiovascular decision support system.

A side-effects mapping model in patients with lung, colorectal and breast cancer receiving chemotherapy (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Mazzocco, T., & Hussain, A. (2011, June). A side-effects mapping model in patients with lung, colorectal and breast cancer receiving chemotherapy. Presented at 2011 IEEE 13th International Conference on e-Health Networking, Applications and Services, Columbia, MO, USA

Cancer treatments are now more effective than ever and, as a consequence, cancer is becoming a chronic disease. Chemotherapy is a frequently used treatment in people with cancer and it can cause a number of side-effects which if not properly managed...
