Teaching and learning in the VLCC: actions, reactions and emerging practice in a very large computing centre. (2002)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Buckner, K., & Davenport, E. (2002, September). Teaching and learning in the VLCC: actions, reactions and emerging practice in a very large computing centre. Presented at ECCE 11

What happens to human computer interaction when the
walls of a physical teaching laboratory are removed?
We present the case of a very large (and new)
computing centre (VLCC) in a technical university in
Central Scotland. In this large multi-user... Read More about Teaching and learning in the VLCC: actions, reactions and emerging practice in a very large computing centre..

A GA evolving instructions for a timetable builder. (2002)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Blum, C., Correia, S., Dorigo, M., Paechter, B., Rossi-Doria, O., & Snoek, M. (2002, August). A GA evolving instructions for a timetable builder. Presented at PATAT 2002

In this work we present a Genetic Algorithm for tackling timetabling problems. Our approach uses an indirect solution representation, which denotes a number of instructions for a timetable builder on how to sequentially build a solution. These instru...

Towards a scalable broadcast in wormhole-switched mesh networks (2002)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Al-Dubai, A. Y., Ould-Khaoua, M., & Mackenzie, L. M. (2002, March). Towards a scalable broadcast in wormhole-switched mesh networks. Presented at 2002 ACM symposium on Applied computing - SAC '02, Madrid, Spain

Broadcast algorithms for wormhole--switched meshes have been widely reported in the literature. However, most of these
algorithms handle broadcast in a sequential manner and do not scale well with the network size. As a consequence, many parallel ap... Read More about Towards a scalable broadcast in wormhole-switched mesh networks.

Finding coordinated atrial activity during ventricular fibrillation using wavelet decomposition. (2002)
Journal Article
Addison, P., Watson, J. N., Clegg, G. R., Steen, P. A., & Robertson, C. E. (2002). Finding coordinated atrial activity during ventricular fibrillation using wavelet decomposition. IEEE engineering in medicine & biology magazine the quarterly magazine of the Engineering in Medicine & Biology Society, 21, 58-65. https://doi.org/10.1109/51.993194

Until recently, the ECG recorded during ventricular fibrillation was thought to represent disorganized and unstructured electrical activity of the heart. Using a new signal analysis technique based on wavelet decomposition, we have begun to reveal pr...

Delivering public services through digital television. (2002)
Journal Article
Smith, C., & Webster, W. (2002). Delivering public services through digital television. Public Money and Management, 22(4), 25-32. https://doi.org/10.1111/1467-9302.00326

Digital television (DTV) is central to the future electronic delivery of public services in the UK. Central government has been actively promoting the use of DTV in the public sector, for example in policy statements and by funding pilot schemes to b...
