Provides a foundation in agent-based systems for Ad-hoc routing.

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...

A framework to detect novel computer viruses via system calls. (2006)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Abimbola, A., Munoz, J., & Buchanan, W. J. (2006). A framework to detect novel computer viruses via system calls. In M. Merabti, R. Pereira, & O. Abuelma'atti (Eds.), 7th Annual PG Symposium on The Convergence of Telecommunications, Networking and Broadca

This paper describes a framework for detecting self-propagating email viruses based on deterministic system calls derived from associated email client’s dynamic link libraries (DLLs). Our research approach is based on the principle that a key objecti... Read More about A framework to detect novel computer viruses via system calls..

Enhancing intrusion detection via an active target host. (2006)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Abimbola, A., Munoz, J., & Buchanan, W. J. (2006). Enhancing intrusion detection via an active target host. In IEEE ICTe Africa 2006

Over the past decade, there have been increases in network attacks. These attacks are typically at-tempts to compromise the integrity, confidentiality or availability of networked resources. In other to reduce these attacks, Intrusion Detection Syste... Read More about Enhancing intrusion detection via an active target host..

Visual comparison and exploration of natural history collections (2006)
Conference Proceeding
Graham, M., Kennedy, J., & Downey, L. (2006). Visual comparison and exploration of natural history collections. In A. Celentano, & P. Mussio (Eds.), Advanced Visual Interfaces (AVI) 2006, Proceedings of the International Working Conference (310-313). https://doi.org/10.1145/1133265.1133329

Natural history museum collections contain a wealth of specimen level data that is now opening up for digital access. However, current interfaces to access and manipulate this data are standard text-based query mechanisms, giving no leeway for explor...

Plugging 3G Mobile Networks into the internet: A prototype-based evaluation (2006)
Conference Proceeding
Oredope, A., & Liotta, A. (2006). Plugging 3G Mobile Networks into the internet: A prototype-based evaluation. In 2006 15th International Conference on Computing (406-411). https://doi.org/10.1109/CIC.2006.53

The third generation mobile network aims at providing present and future Internet services everywhere and at anytime using cellular technologies. This is based on its all-IP core network known as the IP multimedia subsystem which provides end-users w...

Mobile Multicast Route Optimisation (2006)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Romdhani, I., Munoz, J., Bettahar, H., & Bouabdallah, A. (2006). Mobile Multicast Route Optimisation. In IEEE International Conference on Communications, 2006. ICC '06 (1977-1983). https://doi.org/10.1109/icc.2006.255060

The multiparty nature of multicast applications presents new challenges for Mobile IP users. Unfortunately, when a multicast receiver is mobile, it will experience additional delay in receiving multicast packets due to handover delay, join latency, a...

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.15.6.668

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...
