Social network analysis as a tool to evaluate the effectiveness of EC funded networks of excellence: the case of DEMO-net (2008)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Buckner, K., & Cruickshank, P. (2008, January). Social network analysis as a tool to evaluate the effectiveness of EC funded networks of excellence: the case of DEMO-net

The European Commission, through its framework programme aims to stimulate the development of sustained collaborative research networks across Europe. Social network analysis (SNA) has previously been used to evaluate collaboration between projects a...

Landscaping personification technologies: from interactions to relationships (2008)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Benyon, D., & Mival, O. (2008, April). Landscaping personification technologies: from interactions to relationships. Presented at Proceeding of the twenty-sixth annual CHI conference extended abstracts on Human factors in computing systems - CHI '08

Personification technologies are technologies that encourage people to anthropomorphize. These technologies try to get people to form relationships with them rather than simply interact with them. They may do this through having behaviours that encou... Read More about Landscaping personification technologies: from interactions to relationships.

Optimization of MPRM functions using tabular techniques and genetic algorithms. (2008)
Journal Article
Al-Jassani, B. A., Urquhart, N. B., & Almaini, A. E. A. (2008). Optimization of MPRM functions using tabular techniques and genetic algorithms. The Mediterranean journal of electronics and communications, 4, 115-125

This paper presents new techniques and algorithms to compute and optimize Mixed Polarity Reed Muller logic functions (MPRM) using Tabular techniques and Genetic Algorithms (GA). The first algorithm is used for bidirectional conversion between Fixed P... Read More about Optimization of MPRM functions using tabular techniques and genetic algorithms..

Towards QoS aware collective communications: from theory to practice: design & analysis of highly parallel multicast & broadcast algorithms. (2008)
Book
Al-Dubai, A. (2008). Towards QoS aware collective communications: from theory to practice: design & analysis of highly parallel multicast & broadcast algorithms. German Publishing House, VDM Verlag

Inter-processor communication in interconnectionnetworks can create bottlenecks for scalable parallelimplementations of computationally intensiveapplications. Multicast and broadcast are generallythe most fundamental communication operationsrequired...

Generative aspect-oriented component adaptation (2008)
Journal Article
Feng, Y., Liu, X., Liu, X., Feng, Y., & Kerridge, J. (2008). Generative aspect-oriented component adaptation. IET Software, 2(2), 149. https://doi.org/10.1049/iet-sen%3A20070049

As a solution to eliminating component mismatches, a generative aspect- oriented approach to component adaptation is presented. The approach enjoys high level of automation and capability of deep level adaptation, which is achieved in an aspect-orien... Read More about Generative aspect-oriented component adaptation.

A Sustainable Service-Oriented B2C Framework for Small Businesses (2008)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Liu, X., & Ye, H. (2008, December). A Sustainable Service-Oriented B2C Framework for Small Businesses. Presented at 2008 IEEE International Symposium on Service-Oriented System Engineering, Jhongli, Taiwan

Electronic commerce is fast expanding all over the world. Currently most B2C (business to customer) electronic commerce focuses on retailing and other online services, such as online banking. Compared with large-scale enterprises and organizations, s... Read More about A Sustainable Service-Oriented B2C Framework for Small Businesses.

Simulation of the research process (2008)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Niazi, M., Hussain, A., Baig, A., & Bhatti, S. (2008). Simulation of the research process. In Proceedings - Winter Simulation Conference (1326-1334). https://doi.org/10.1109/WSC.2008.4736206

This paper presents first steps towards the development of a formal model of the research process. We evaluate the use of simulation as a tool for the evaluation of research strategies in nascent research organizations faced with the absence of signi...
