Applied web traffic analysis for numerical encoding of SQL Injection attack features (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Uwagbole, S., Buchanan, W., & Fan, L. (2016, July). Applied web traffic analysis for numerical encoding of SQL Injection attack features. Presented at 15th European Conference on Cyber Warfare and Security ECCWS-2016

SQL Injection Attack (SQLIA) remains a technique used by a computer network intruder to pilfer an organisation’s confidential data. This is done by an intruder re-crafting web form’s input and query strings used in web requests with malicious intent...

Telling stories about dynamic networks with graph comics. (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Bach, B., Kerracher, N., Hall, K. W., Carpendale, S., Kennedy, J., & Henry Riche, N. (2016). Telling stories about dynamic networks with graph comics. In Proceedings of the ACM Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems (CHI'16) (1-13). https://doi

In this paper, we explore graph comics as a medium to communicate changes in dynamic networks. While previous research has focused on visualizing dynamic networks for data exploration, we want to see if we can take advantage of the visual express...

Numerical encoding to tame SQL injection attacks (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Uwagbole, S., Buchanan, W. J., & Fan, L. (2016, April). Numerical encoding to tame SQL injection attacks. Presented at 2ND IEEE/IFIP Workshop on Security for Emerging Distributed Network Technologies (DISSECT)

Recent years have seen an astronomical rise in SQL Injection Attacks (SQLIAs) used to compromise the confidentiality, authentication and integrity of organisations’ databases. Intruders becoming smarter in obfuscating web requests to evade detection... Read More about Numerical encoding to tame SQL injection attacks.

Sonifying the solar system (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Quinton, M., McGregor, I., & Benyon, D. (2016, July). Sonifying the solar system. Presented at The 22nd International Conference on Auditory Display: Sonic Information Design

Sound is potentially an effective way of analysing data and it is possible to simultaneously interpret layers of sounds and identify changes. Multiple attempts to use sound with scientific data have been made, with varying levels of success. On many... Read More about Sonifying the solar system.

Social learning, environmental adversity and the evolution of cooperation (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Andras, P. (2016). Social learning, environmental adversity and the evolution of cooperation. In Artificial Life Conference Proceedings 13 (290-297). https://doi.org/10.1162/978-0-262-33936-0-ch051

Social learning plays a key role in the evolution of cooperation in humans and other animals. It has also been shown both theoretically and experimentally that environmental adversity is also a key determinant of the evolution of cooperation among in...

The institutional approach for modeling the evolution of human societies (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Powers, S. (2016). The institutional approach for modeling the evolution of human societies. In Proceedings of the Artificial Life Conference 2016. https://doi.org/10.7551/978-0-262-33936-0-ch011

Artificial Life is concerned with understanding the dynamics of human societies. A defining feature of any human society is its institutions. However, defining exactly what an institution is has proven difficult, with authors often talking past each...

Cooja Simulator Manual (2016)
Report
Thomson, C., Romdhani, I., Al-Dubai, A., Qasem, M., Ghaleb, B., & Wadhaj, I. (2016). Cooja Simulator Manual. Edinburgh: Edinburgh Napier University

While Cooja has been proven to be an ideal tool for the simulation of RPL in WSNs, there are challenges involved in its use, particularly in regard to a lack of documentation. The Contiki website provides an image of Instant Contiki which can then be... Read More about Cooja Simulator Manual.

An individual subjectivist critique of the use of corpus linguistics to inform pedagogical materials. (2016)
Journal Article
Richards, K., & Pilcher, N. (2016). An individual subjectivist critique of the use of corpus linguistics to inform pedagogical materials. Dialogic Pedagogy, 4, https://doi.org/10.5195/dpj.2016.163

Corpus Linguistics, or the gathering together of language into a body for analysis and development of materials, claims itself an assured, established method (or field) that valuably informs pedagogical materials and knowledge of language. The fundam... Read More about An individual subjectivist critique of the use of corpus linguistics to inform pedagogical materials..

Harnessing the digital records of everyday things (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Darzentas, D. P., Hazzard, A., Brown, M. J. I., Flintham, M., & Benford, S. (2016). Harnessing the digital records of everyday things.

We address how, framed by the Internet of Things, digitally-enabled physical objects may acquire rich digital records throughout their lifetimes, and how these might enhance their value, meaning and utility. We reflect on emerging findings from two c... Read More about Harnessing the digital records of everyday things.

Development of a Self-Efficacy Instrument for First Year Computing Students (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Bhardwaj, J. (2016, June). Development of a Self-Efficacy Instrument for First Year Computing Students. Presented at Horizons in STEM Higher Education Conference 2016, Leicester

This study explores the relationship between new entrants’ own measure of self-efficacy, their resilience to everyday challenges during first year, and their likelihood of completing and proceeding to second year. The study takes place in the School... Read More about Development of a Self-Efficacy Instrument for First Year Computing Students.
