Who dunnit? Metatags and hyperauthorship (2001)
Journal Article
Davenport, E., & Cronin, B. (2001). Who dunnit? Metatags and hyperauthorship. Journal of the American Society for Information Science and Technology, 52(9), 770-773. https://doi.org/10.1002/asi.1123

Multiple authorship is a topic of growing concern in a number of scientific domains. When, as is increasingly common, scholarly articles and clinical reports have scores or even hundreds of authors - what Cronin (in press) has termed hyperauthorship... Read More about Who dunnit? Metatags and hyperauthorship.

Agent motion planning with GAs enhanced by memory models. (2001)
Journal Article
Bot, M., Urquhart, N. B., & Chisholm, K. (2001). Agent motion planning with GAs enhanced by memory models. Genetic and Evolutionary Computation Conference, 227-234

The Tartarus problem may be considered a benchmark problem in the field of robotics. A robotic agent is required to move a number of blocks to the edge of an environment. The location of the blocks and position of the robot is unknown initially. The... Read More about Agent motion planning with GAs enhanced by memory models..

Teaching multitasking to electronics and computing students (2001)
Journal Article
Armitage, A. (2001). Teaching multitasking to electronics and computing students. International Journal of Electrical Engineering Education, 38, 338-347

Although widely used in the solution of engineering problems, multitasking is conceptually as complicated as parallel processing. A simple system that covers the key features of multitasking in a short time is presented. A description is given of its...

Describing team work with activity theory (2001)
Journal Article
Turner, P., & Turner, S. (2001). Describing team work with activity theory. Cognition, Technology and Work, 3, 127-139. https://doi.org/10.1007/pl00011528

The proposal that activity theory might serve as a model or theory for computer-supported cooperative working remains an open question. Here we demonstrate the usefulness of activity theory in elucidating a series of small group software design meeti... Read More about Describing team work with activity theory.

Agent-based modelling of pedestrian movements: the questions that need to be asked and answered. (2001)
Journal Article
Kerridge, J., Hine, J., & Wigan, M. (2001). Agent-based modelling of pedestrian movements: the questions that need to be asked and answered. Environment and Planning B: Planning and Design, 28(3), 327-341. https://doi.org/10.1068/b2696

Vulnerable road users have steadily attracted increased importance in transport and planning. The behaviour of pedestrian movements (especially in the areas off but adjacent to roads) requires improved tools to address the issues now being raised. Su...

Input-friendliness: motivating knowledge sharing across intranets (2001)
Journal Article
Hall, H. (2001). Input-friendliness: motivating knowledge sharing across intranets. Journal of Information Science, 27(3), 139-146. https://doi.org/10.1177/016555150102700303

The value of an intranet for knowledge management (KM) is largely dependent on the calibre of the content and tools that it provides to its users and its ultimate application in business operations. For many organisations, there is a particular dilem... Read More about Input-friendliness: motivating knowledge sharing across intranets.

Sagittal joint kinematics, moments, and powers are predominantly characterized by speed of progression, not age, in normal children. (2001)
Journal Article
Stansfield, B., Hillman, S., Hazlewood, M., Lawson, A., Mann, A. M., Loudon, I. R., & Robb, J. E. (2001). Sagittal joint kinematics, moments, and powers are predominantly characterized by speed of progression, not age, in normal children. Journal of Pediatric Orthopaedics, 21, 403-411

Twenty-six healthy 7-year-old children were enrolled in a 5-year longitudinal study to examine the importance of age and speed in the characterization of sagittal joint angles, moments, and powers. In 740 gait trials, children walking at self-selecte...

Intelligibility improvements using binaural diverse sub-band processing applied to speech corrupted with automobile noise (2001)
Journal Article
Hussain, A., & Campbell, D. (2001). Intelligibility improvements using binaural diverse sub-band processing applied to speech corrupted with automobile noise. IEE Proceedings: Vision, Image and Signal Processing, 148(2), 127-132. https://doi.org/10.1049/ip-vis%3A20010178

The paper reports on experiments assessing the capability of a diverse processing, multi-microphone sub-band adaptive signal processing scheme for improving the intelligibility of speech corrupted with automobile noise. Results from formal listening... Read More about Intelligibility improvements using binaural diverse sub-band processing applied to speech corrupted with automobile noise.

Knowledge management issues for online organisations: ‘communities of practice’ as an exploratory framework (2001)
Journal Article
Davenport, E. (2001). Knowledge management issues for online organisations: ‘communities of practice’ as an exploratory framework. Journal of Documentation, 57(1), 61-75. https://doi.org/10.1108/eum0000000007077

Communities of practice have been identified as sites where knowledge is created in organisations. The author reviews studies of situated learning and situated action and suggests that these two activities may characterise the learning process in com...
