Multi-Agent Modelling Notation (MAMN): A multi-layered graphical modelling notation for agent-based simulations (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Nguyen, J., Powers, S., Urquhart, N., Farrenkopf, T., & Guckert, M. (2022, November). Multi-Agent Modelling Notation (MAMN): A multi-layered graphical modelling notation for agent-based simulations. Presented at 24th International Conference on Principles and Practice of Multi-Agent Systems, Valencia, Spain

Cause-effect graphs have been applied in non agent-based simulations, where they are used to model chained causal relations between input parameters and system behaviour measured by appropriate indicators. This can be useful for the analysis and inte... Read More about Multi-Agent Modelling Notation (MAMN): A multi-layered graphical modelling notation for agent-based simulations.

Is the public library included? An analysis of local government documentation on the integration of forced migrants in Scotland (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Salzano, R., Hall, H., Webster, G., & Brazier, D. (2022, May). Is the public library included? An analysis of local government documentation on the integration of forced migrants in Scotland. Presented at Conceptions of Library and Information Science, Oslo, Norway

Introduction - Library and information science researchers identify public library roles in the integration of forced migrants into local communities. Here an analysis of formal documentation issued by local authorities allowed for an exploration of... Read More about Is the public library included?

A Quantitative Field Study of a Persuasive Security Technology in the Wild (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Vargheese, J. P., Collinson, M., & Masthoff, J. (2022, October). A Quantitative Field Study of a Persuasive Security Technology in the Wild. Presented at SocInfo'22: International Conference on Social Informatics 2022, Glasgow, UK

Persuasive techniques and persuasive technologies have been suggested as a means to improve user cybersecurity behaviour, but there have been few quantitative studies in this area. In this paper, we present a large scale evaluation of persuasive mess... Read More about A Quantitative Field Study of a Persuasive Security Technology in the Wild.

Manipulating Foley Footsteps and Character Realism to Influence Audience Perceptions of a 3D Animated Walk Cycle (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Cunningham, S., & Mcgregor, I. (2022, September). Manipulating Foley Footsteps and Character Realism to Influence Audience Perceptions of a 3D Animated Walk Cycle. Presented at Audio Mostly 2022, St. Pölten University of Applied Sciences, Austria

Foley artistry is an essential part of the audio post-production process for film, television, games, and animation. By extension, it is as crucial in emergent media such as virtual, mixed, and augmented reality. Footsteps are a core activity that a...
