On the design of scalable pipelined broadcasting for mesh networks (2002)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Al-Dubai, A., & Ould-Khaoua, M. (2002). On the design of scalable pipelined broadcasting for mesh networks. In High Performance Computing Systems and Applications (98-105). https://doi.org/10.1109/HPCSA.2002.1019140

Minimising the communication latency and achieving considerable scalability are of paramount importance when designing high performance broadcast algorithms. Many algorithms for wormhole-switched meshes have been widely reported in the literature. Ho... Read More about On the design of scalable pipelined broadcasting for mesh networks.

A General Model for the Answer-Perturbation Techniques (2002)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Stamate, D., Luchian, H., & Paechter, B. (2002). A General Model for the Answer-Perturbation Techniques. In Seventh International Working Conference on Scientific and Statistical Database Management (90-96). https://doi.org/10.1109/SSDM.1994.336958

Answer-perturbation techniques for the protection of statistical databases have been previously introduced (Luchian and Stamate, 1992); they are flexible (perturbation kept under control), modular (do not interact with the DBMS) techniques, which com...

Combining linking and focusing techniques for a multiple hierarchy visualisation (2002)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Graham, M., & Kennedy, J. (2002). Combining linking and focusing techniques for a multiple hierarchy visualisation. In E. Banissi, F. Khosrowshahi, M. Sarfraz, & A. Ursyn (Eds.), Proceedings [of the] Fifth International Conference on Information Visualisa

Visualisations have previously combined linking and brushing operations successfully. However, none to our knowledge have combined linking and focussing techniques. We describe the motivation behind developing such a technique, and show how our visua... Read More about Combining linking and focusing techniques for a multiple hierarchy visualisation.

Mundane knowledge management and microlevel organizational learning: an ethological approach. (2002)
Journal Article
Davenport, E. (2002). Mundane knowledge management and microlevel organizational learning: an ethological approach. Journal of the American Society for Information Science and Technology, 53, 1038-1046. https://doi.org/10.1002/asi.10110

Knowledge management is discussed in the context of articulation work, that is routine interactions in groups of local practice. In such situations, knowledge is largely acquired and maintained by learning from the appropriate behavior of others by m...

Towards visualising temporal features in large scale microarray time-series data. (2002)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Craig, P., Kennedy, J., & Cumming, A. (2002). Towards visualising temporal features in large scale microarray time-series data. . https://doi.org/10.1109/IV.2002.1028809

Current techniques for visualising large-scale microarray data are unable to present temporal features without reducing the number of elements being displayed. This paper introduces a technique that overcomes this problem by combining a novel display... Read More about Towards visualising temporal features in large scale microarray time-series data..

Hyper-heuristics: learning to combine simple heuristics in bin-packing problems. (2002)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Ross, P., Schulenburg, S., Marin-Blazquez, J. G., & Hart, E. (2002). Hyper-heuristics: learning to combine simple heuristics in bin-packing problems.

Evolutionary algorithms (EAs) often appear to be a ‘black box’, neither offering worst-case bounds nor any guarantee of optimality when used to solve individual problems. They can also take much longer than non-evolutionary methods. We try to addres... Read More about Hyper-heuristics: learning to combine simple heuristics in bin-packing problems..

Interactive multimedia and learning: realising the benefits. (2002)
Thesis
Cairncross, S. Interactive multimedia and learning: realising the benefits. (Thesis). Edinburgh Napier University. Retrieved from http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/id/eprint/4628

Interactive multimedia has the potential to create high quality learning environments that actively engage the learner. For example it can combine explanation with illustrative examples, on-line assessment with feedback and provide opportunities to...
