Smart meter technology tradeoffs. (2012)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Wigan, M. (2012, October). Smart meter technology tradeoffs

Smart meters have become a matter of concern for
many populations, although the technology is as always
politically neutral. The focus on electricity rather than all
metered services, water, gas and electricity is one aspect of this
public concer... Read More about Smart meter technology tradeoffs..

Redeeming pedigree data with an interactive error cleaning visualisation. (2012)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Graham, M., Kennedy, J., Paterson, T., & Law, A. (2012, May). Redeeming pedigree data with an interactive error cleaning visualisation. Presented at AVI 2012

We describe a visual data cleansing application for pedigree genotype data, which is used to redeem otherwise unusable pedigree data sets. Biologists and bioinformaticians dynamically and iteratively mask pieces of information from a dirty data set a...

Software reuse in the emerging cloud computing era. (2012)
Book
Yang, H., & Liu, X. (2012). Software reuse in the emerging cloud computing era. IGI Global Publishing. https://doi.org/10.4018/978-1-4666-0897-9

With the rapid development of computing hardware, high-speed network, web programming, distributed and parallel computing, and other technologies, cloud computing has recently emerged as a commercial reality. Software Reuse in the Emerging Cloud Comp... Read More about Software reuse in the emerging cloud computing era..

Pseudorandom number generation in smart cards: an Implementation, performance and randomness analysis. (2012)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Akram, R. N., Markantonakis, K., & Mayes, K. (2012, May). Pseudorandom number generation in smart cards: an Implementation, performance and randomness analysis

Smart cards rely on pseudorandom number generators to provide uniqueness and freshness in their cryptographic services i.e. encryption and digital signatures. Their implementations are kept proprietary by smart card manufacturers in order to remain c...

A privacy preserving application acquisition protocol. (2012)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Akram, R. N., Markantonakis, K., & Mayes, K. (2012, June). A privacy preserving application acquisition protocol

In the smart card industry, the application acquisition process involves the card issuers and application providers. During this process, the respective card issuer reveals the identity of the smart card user to the individual application providers....

Introducing Psychological Factors into E-Participation Research (2012)
Book Chapter
Edelmann, N., & Cruickshank, P. (2012). Introducing Psychological Factors into E-Participation Research. In A. Manoharan, & M. Holzer (Eds.), E-Governance and Civic Engagement (338-361). IGI Global Publishing. https://doi.org/10.4018/978-1-61350-083-5.ch017

This chapter looks at e-petitioning as a successful application of e-participation from a psychological perspective. It notes that e-participation should not be viewed uncritically, as digital technologies cannot remedy all (political) problems: inde...

VIPER: a visualisation tool for exploring inheritance inconsistencies in genotyped pedigrees (2012)
Journal Article
Paterson, T., Graham, M., Kennedy, J., & Law, A. (2012). VIPER: a visualisation tool for exploring inheritance inconsistencies in genotyped pedigrees. BMC Bioinformatics, 13(Suppl 8), S5. https://doi.org/10.1186/1471-2105-13-S8-S5

Pedigree genotype datasets are used for analysing genetic inheritance and to map genetic markers and traits. Such datasets consist of hundreds of related animals genotyped for thousands of genetic markers and invariably contain multiple errors in bot...

Type 2 diabetes: A side effect of the adaptation of neurons and fat cells to support increased cognitive performance (2012)
Journal Article
Andras, P., & Andras, A. (2013). Type 2 diabetes: A side effect of the adaptation of neurons and fat cells to support increased cognitive performance. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.mehy.2012.11.023

Type 2 diabetes is a serious disease that is affecting an increasing part of the population in most countries. A new hypothesis is presented in this paper about the underlying causes and mechanisms that lead to the development of this disease. It is...

Embedded self-healing layer for detecting and recovering sensor faults in body sensor networks (2012)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Galzarano, S., Fortino, G., & Liotta, A. (2012, October). Embedded self-healing layer for detecting and recovering sensor faults in body sensor networks. Presented at 2012 IEEE International Conference on Systems, Man, and Cybernetics (SMC), Seoul, South Korea

Wireless Body Sensor Networks (WBSNs) have proved to be a suitable technology for supporting the monitoring of physical and physiological activities of the human body. However, avoiding erroneous behavior of WBSN-based systems is an issue of fundamen... Read More about Embedded self-healing layer for detecting and recovering sensor faults in body sensor networks.
