NetHost-Sensor: Investigating the capture of end-to-end encrypted intrusive data (2006)
Journal Article
Abimbola, A., Munoz, J., & Buchanan, W. J. (2006). NetHost-Sensor: Investigating the capture of end-to-end encrypted intrusive data. Computers and Security, 25(6), 445-451. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cose.2006.04.001

Intrusion Detection Systems (IDSs) are systems that protect against violation of data integrity, confidentiality and availability of resources. In the past 20 years, these systems have evolved with the technology and have become more sophisticated. D...

The production of service in the digital city: a social informatics inquiry. (2006)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Davenport, E., & Horton, K. (2006). The production of service in the digital city: a social informatics inquiry. . https://doi.org/10.1007/978-0-387-37876-3_19

The authors discuss eGovernment as a computerization movement, and present a case study of a small project that was part of a modernising government initiative in a UK municipality. The case is analysed by means of an analytic construct, the technolo... Read More about The production of service in the digital city: a social informatics inquiry..

Stabilization of non-linear inertia wheel pendulum system using a new dynamic surface control based technique (2006)
Conference Proceeding
Qaiser, N., Iqbal, N., & Hussain, A. (2006). Stabilization of non-linear inertia wheel pendulum system using a new dynamic surface control based technique. In 2006 IEEE International Conference on Engineering of Intelligent Systems. https://doi.org/10.1109/ICEIS.2006.1703194

This paper considers the stabilization problem of inertia-wheel pendulum (IWP), a widely studied nonlinear mechanical system. The IWP is a classical example of flat under-actuated mechanical systems, for which the design of control laws becomes a cha...

Non-linear predictors based on the functionally expanded neural networks for speech feature extraction (2006)
Conference Proceeding
Chetouani, M., Hussain, A., Gas, B., & Zarader, J. (2006). Non-linear predictors based on the functionally expanded neural networks for speech feature extraction. In 2006 IEEE International Conference on Engineering of Intelligent Systems. https://doi.org/10.1109/ICEIS.2006.1703129

In this paper we focus on the design of the feature extractor stage of the speech recognition system which aims to compute optimal vectors for the next phoneme classification stage. We propose a new non-linear feature extraction method based on the l... Read More about Non-linear predictors based on the functionally expanded neural networks for speech feature extraction.

Heuristics and meta-heuristics for bandwidth minimization of sparse matrices (2006)
Conference Proceeding
