A nonlinear PID-based multiple controller incorporating a multilayered neural network learning submodel (2006)
Journal Article
Zayed, A., Hussain, A., & Grimble, M. (2006). A nonlinear PID-based multiple controller incorporating a multilayered neural network learning submodel. Control and Intelligent Systems, 34, 177-184. https://doi.org/10.2316/Journal.201.2006.3.201-1499

A new nonlinear minimum-variance adaptive proportional integral derivative (PID) based multiple controller, incorporating a multi- layered neural network learning submodel, is presented. The unknown non-linear plant is represented by an equivalent st... Read More about A nonlinear PID-based multiple controller incorporating a multilayered neural network learning submodel.

The sense of outsourcing: the viability of outsourcing corporate research and information services. (2006)
Journal Article
Hall, H., & Goody, M. (2006). The sense of outsourcing: the viability of outsourcing corporate research and information services. Library and information research, 30(96), 13-24

This paper presents a literature review on outsourcing in library and information services, with particular reference to business research and information services. This is complemented with some findings of a small-scale research project into percep...

Navigating information space: web site design and lessons from the built environment. (2006)
Journal Article
Benyon, D. (2006). Navigating information space: web site design and lessons from the built environment. PsychNology journal, 4, 7-24

The Web is the archetypal information space but even on a well designed site it can be difficult to find all the information you need. It is impossible to design a site so that all the information needs of all the users of the site are satisfied on a...

Performance of deterministic and adaptive broadcast algorithms in multicomputer networks (2006)
Journal Article
Al-Dubai, A. (2006). Performance of deterministic and adaptive broadcast algorithms in multicomputer networks. International Journal of High Performance Computing and Networking, 4, 152-160. https://doi.org/10.1504/IJHPCN.2006.010637

This paper examines the performance of broadcast communication on multicomputer networks. Unlike many existing works, this study considers a number of key factors/prosperities, including scalability, parallelism and routing scheme that could greatly...

The place probe: exploring a sense of place in real and virtual environments. (2006)
Journal Article
McCall, R., Benyon, D., Smyth, M., O'Neill, S., McCall, R., & Carroll, F. (2006). The place probe: exploring a sense of place in real and virtual environments. Presence: Teleoperators and Virtual Environments, 15(6), 668-687. https://doi.org/10.1162/pres.

This paper describes the design, application, and refinement of a qualitative tool designed to study sense of place. The Place Probe incorporates a range of stimuli and techniques aimed at articulating a person's sense of place. It has been developed...

Librarians need standards (2006)
Journal Article
Hopkinson, A., & Haynes, D. (2006). Librarians need standards. CILIP Update, 5(11), 31-33

In an increasingly connected electronic environment, standards will become an even more important part of library and information work. David Haynes and Alan Hopkinson provide a clear overiew of the different categories of standards and guidelines u... Read More about Librarians need standards.

New role realities: Avenues for extending the reach of information specialists (2006)
Journal Article
Hall, H., & Abell, A. (2006). New role realities: Avenues for extending the reach of information specialists. Proceedings of the American Society for Information Science and Technology, 43(1), 1-13. https://doi.org/10.1002/meet.14504301267

As organizations have developed enterprise-wide electronic information environments, a diverse range of job roles has emerged at a variety of levels. Some of these roles are ear-marked for “traditional” information specialists, but many are not – and...

High-resolution multiple-unit EEG in cat auditory cortex reveals large spatio-temporal stochastic interactions (2006)
Journal Article
Wennekers, T., Ay, N., & Andras, P. (2007). High-resolution multiple-unit EEG in cat auditory cortex reveals large spatio-temporal stochastic interactions. BioSystems, 89(1-3), 190-197. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.biosystems.2006.04.017

It has been argued that information processing in the cortex is optimised with regard to certain information theoretic principles. We have, for instance, recently shown that spike-timing dependent plasticity can improve an information-theoretic measu...
