Impact of cyberattacks on stock performance: a comparative study (2018)
Journal Article
Tweneboah-Kodua, S., Atsu, F., & Buchanan, W. (2018). Impact of cyberattacks on stock performance: a comparative study. Information and Computer Security, 26(5), 637-652. https://doi.org/10.1108/ics-05-2018-0060

The study uses cyberattacks announcements on 96 firms that are listed on S&P 500 over the period January 03, 2013 and December 29, 2017.
The empirical analysis was performed in two ways: cross-section and industry level. We employ statistical tests... Read More about Impact of cyberattacks on stock performance: a comparative study.

MOSAIC: Simultaneous Localization and Environment Mapping using mmWave without a-priori Knowledge (2018)
Journal Article
Yassin, A., Nasser, Y., Al-Dubai, A., & Awad, M. (2018). MOSAIC: Simultaneous Localization and Environment Mapping using mmWave without a-priori Knowledge. IEEE Access, 6, 68932-68947. https://doi.org/10.1109/access.2018.2879436

Simultaneous Localization and environment mapping (SLAM) is the core to robotic mapping and navigation as it constructs simultaneously the unknown environment and localizes the agent within. However, in millimeter wave (mmWave) research, SLAM is stil... Read More about MOSAIC: Simultaneous Localization and Environment Mapping using mmWave without a-priori Knowledge.

Using P4 to enable scalable intents in software defined networks (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Lewis, B., Fawcett, L., Broadbent, M., & Race, N. (2018, September). Using P4 to enable scalable intents in software defined networks. Presented at 2018 IEEE 26th International Conference on Network Protocols (ICNP), Cambridge, UK

When designing Software Defined Networks (SDNs), there is a risk that the additional abstractions available can result in reduced scalability and performance. One such abstraction, intents, are a way in which network administrators can express polici... Read More about Using P4 to enable scalable intents in software defined networks.

SICSA Demofest 2018 - Supporting user choice in optimisation. (2018)
Exhibition / Performance
Urquhart, N., Hutcheson, W., & Hoehl, S. SICSA Demofest 2018 - Supporting user choice in optimisation. Exhibited at Our Dynamic Earth, Edinburgh. 6 November 2018 - 6 November 2018

Many complex optimisation problems can have multiple solutions, techniques such as MAP –Elites will produce a large number of solutions from which the user should make the final choice. That final choice may be based on a number of soft criteria for... Read More about SICSA Demofest 2018 - Supporting user choice in optimisation..

Visual Meaningful Encryption Scheme Using Intertwinning Logistic Map (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Abbasi, S. F., Ahmad, J., Khan, J. S., Khan, M. A., & Sheikh, S. A. (2018, July). Visual Meaningful Encryption Scheme Using Intertwinning Logistic Map. Presented at Science and Information Conference, London

Transmission of images over the Internet is exponentially increased in the last decade. However, Internet is considered as an insecure channel and hence may cause serious privacy issues. To overcome such privacy concerns, researchers are trying to se... Read More about Visual Meaningful Encryption Scheme Using Intertwinning Logistic Map.

The role of networking and social media tools during job search: an information behaviour perspective (2018)
Thesis
Mowbray, J. A. The role of networking and social media tools during job search: an information behaviour perspective. (Thesis). Edinburgh Napier University. http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/Output/1516318

This research reported in this thesis explores job search networking amongst 16-24 year olds living in Scotland, and the role of social media platforms (i.e. Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn) during this process. Networking is treated as an informatio... Read More about The role of networking and social media tools during job search: an information behaviour perspective.
