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.

Engineering Sustainable and Adaptive Systems in Dynamic and Unpredictable Environments (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Cardoso, R. P., Rossetti, R. J. F., Hart, E., Kurka, D. B., & Pitt, J. (2018, November). Engineering Sustainable and Adaptive Systems in Dynamic and Unpredictable Environments. Presented at 8th International Symposium, ISoLA 2018, Limassol, Cyprus

Electronic institutions are socially-inspired multi-agent systems, typically operating under a set of policies, which are required to determine system operation and to deal with violations and other non-compliant behaviour. They are often faced with... Read More about Engineering Sustainable and Adaptive Systems in Dynamic and Unpredictable Environments.

Fingerprinting JPEGs With Optimised Huffman Tables (2018)
Journal Article
McKeown, S., Russell, G., & Leimich, P. (2018). Fingerprinting JPEGs With Optimised Huffman Tables. Journal of Digital Forensics, Security and Law, 13(2), Article 7. https://doi.org/10.15394/jdfsl.2018.1451

A common task in digital forensics investigations is to identify known contraband images. This is typically achieved by calculating a cryptographic digest, using hashing algorithms such as SHA256, for each image on a given medium, and comparing indiv...

A Chain Topology for Efficient Monitoring of Food Grain Storage using Smart Sensors (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kumar Mishra, A., Kumar Tripathy, A., Obaidat, M. S., Tan, Z., Prasad, M., Sadoun, B., & Puthal, D. (2018, July). A Chain Topology for Efficient Monitoring of Food Grain Storage using Smart Sensors. Presented at The 15th International Joint Conference on e-Business, Porto, Portugal

Due to lack of an efficient monitoring system to periodically record environmental parameters for food grain storage, a huge loss of food grains in storage is reported every year in many developing countries, especially south-Asian countries. Althoug... Read More about A Chain Topology for Efficient Monitoring of Food Grain Storage using Smart Sensors.
