Interactive Mixing Using Wii Controller (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Selfridge, R., & Reiss, J. (2011, May). Interactive Mixing Using Wii Controller. Presented at Audio Engineering Society 130th Convention, London

This paper describes the design, construction and analysis of an interactive gesture-controlled audio mixing system by the means of a wireless video game controller. The concept is based on the idea that the Mixing Engineer can step away from the mix... Read More about Interactive Mixing Using Wii Controller.

Informing design by recording tangible interaction. (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Esteves, A., & Oakley, I. (2011, May). Informing design by recording tangible interaction. Presented at Proceedings of the 2011 annual conference extended abstracts on Human factors in computing systems - CHI EA '11, Vancouver, BC, Canada

Evaluating tangible user interfaces is challenging. Despite the wealth of research describing the design of tangible systems, there is little empirical evidence highlighting the benefits they can confer. This paper presents a toolkit that logs the ma... Read More about Informing design by recording tangible interaction..

A next generation Cloud-based health care platform. (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Buchanan, W. J. (2011, May). A next generation Cloud-based health care platform. Paper presented at Innovation in Healthcare

This presentation outlines a novel Cloud-based e-Health Platform which integrates security within every single transaction. It involves a TSB/EPSRC funded project with Edinburgh Napier University, Chelsea and Westminster Hospital, and a number of col... Read More about A next generation Cloud-based health care platform..

The role of appropriation in the design of engaging artefacts (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Flint, T., & Turner, P. (2011, May). The role of appropriation in the design of engaging artefacts. Paper presented at Re-Thinking Technology in Museums 2011

Creating engaging artefacts is a key objective for anyone involved in the design and implementation of interactive media. This is particularly true for those artefacts that comprise, complement and enliven modern museums. While recognising that engag...

Ontology based knowledge formulation and an interpretation engine for intelligent devices in pervasive environments (2011)
Thesis
Kosek, A. Ontology based knowledge formulation and an interpretation engine for intelligent devices in pervasive environments. (Thesis). Edinburgh Napier University. http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/id/eprint/6037

Ongoing device miniaturization makes it possible to manufacture very small devices; therefore more of them can be embedded in one space. Pervasive computing concepts, envisioning computers distributed in a space and hidden from users' sight, presente...

Cryptographic privacy-preserving enhancement method for investigative data acquisition (2011)
Thesis
Kwecka, Z. Cryptographic privacy-preserving enhancement method for investigative data acquisition. (Thesis). Edinburgh Napier University. http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/id/eprint/4437

The current processes involved in the acquisition of investigative data from third parties, such as banks, Internet Service Providers (ISPs) and employers, by the public authorities can breach the rights of the individuals under investigation. This i... Read More about Cryptographic privacy-preserving enhancement method for investigative data acquisition.

Achieving Consensus within SSM. (2011)
Journal Article
Berg, T., Pooley, R., & Queenan, J. (2011). Achieving Consensus within SSM. International journal of humanities and social science, 1, 231-239

SSM is a socio-technical system methodology offering tools for analysing complex situations. This modelling
approach identifies differing worldviews of the system by encouraging discussion and debate. Academic
ethical studies of moral philosophy ha... Read More about Achieving Consensus within SSM..

Improved multiple description wavelet based image coding using subband uniform quantization (2011)
Journal Article
Khelil, K., Hussain, A., Bekka, R. E., & Berrezzek, F. (2011). Improved multiple description wavelet based image coding using subband uniform quantization. International journal of electronics and communications = Archiv fur Elektronik und Ubertragungstechnik : AEU, 65(11), 967-974. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.aeue.2011.03.011

The objective of multiple description coding (MDC) is to encode a source into multiple descriptions supporting different quality levels of reconstruction. In this paper, we use the multiple description transform coding (MDTC) algorithm based on the w...

Sensing emergence in complex systems (2011)
Journal Article
Niazi, M. A., & Hussain, A. (2011). Sensing emergence in complex systems. IEEE Sensors Journal, 11(10), 2479-2480. https://doi.org/10.1109/JSEN.2011.2142303

We propose the Sensing of Emergent behavior in a Complex Adaptive System (SECAS), as an extension of our previous work Formal Agent-Based Simulation Framework (FABS). Using aggregated data from an array of proximity sensors, SECAS allows for the dete... Read More about Sensing emergence in complex systems.
