The RPL Load Balancing in IoT Network with Burst Traffic Scenarios (2019)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Altwassi, H. S., Pervez, Z., Dahal, K., & Ghaleb, B. (2019). The RPL Load Balancing in IoT Network with Burst Traffic Scenarios. In 2018 12th International Conference on Software, Knowledge, Information Management & Applications (SKIMA). https://doi.org/

The RPL (Routing Protocol for Low-Power and Lossy Networks) has emerged within constrained networks as the de-facto IPv6 routing standard, which entangles many concepts that make it a complex, albeit a rather flexible protocol. However, load balancin... Read More about The RPL Load Balancing in IoT Network with Burst Traffic Scenarios.

Towards a High-Performance Modelica Compiler (2019)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Agosta, G., Baldino, E., Casella, F., Cherubin, S., Leva, A., & Terraneo, F. (2019). Towards a High-Performance Modelica Compiler. In Proceedings of the 13th International Modelica Conference, Regensburg, Germany, March 4–6, 2019 (313-320). https://do

The use of Modelica as a modelling and simulation language is progressively replacing hand-tuned simulation code written in traditional imperative programming languages. This adoption is fuelled by the availability of libraries to target different ap... Read More about Towards a High-Performance Modelica Compiler.

The interaction between people, information and innovation: information literacy to underpin innovative work behaviour in a Finnish organisation (2019)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Middleton, L., Hall, H., Muir, L., & Raeside, R. (2018, November). The interaction between people, information and innovation: information literacy to underpin innovative work behaviour in a Finnish organisation. Presented at ASIS&T 2018 Annual Meeting, V

Workplace learning and employee-led innovation are related. For example, mistakes made when learning may spur innovation. Investigated in this paper is the role of information literacy in the learning of innovative work behaviour in the workplace, an...
