Journal Article
Turner, P., Turner, S., & Van de Walle, G. (2007). How older people account for their experiences with interactive technology. Behaviour and Information Technology, 26(4), 287-296. https://doi.org/10.1080/01449290601173499

We present a qualitative study, undertaken over a period of nine months, of older people facing the challenges of learning to use interactive technology, specifically personal computers (PCs) and the internet. We examine the range of causal explanati... Read More about How older people account for their experiences with interactive technology.

On The Design of High Throughput Adaptive Multicast Communication (2007)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Al-Dubai, A. Y., & Romdhani, I. (2007, July). On The Design of High Throughput Adaptive Multicast Communication. Presented at Sixth International Symposium on Parallel and Distributed Computing (ISPDC'07)

The efficient and high throughput multicast communication in interconnection networks is known as a fundamental but hard problem. In the literature, most of the related works handle multicast communication within limited operating conditions and low...

Scenario Analysis using Out-of-line Firewall Evaluation Framework. (2007)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Saliou, L., Buchanan, W. J., Graves, J., & Munoz, J. (2007, July). Scenario Analysis using Out-of-line Firewall Evaluation Framework. Presented at 6th European Conference on Information Warfare, and Security, Shrivenham, UK

Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attacks against corporate networks and assets are increasing, and their potential risk for future attacks is also a major concern. These attacks typically aim at disabling computer network infrastructure, and, sin... Read More about Scenario Analysis using Out-of-line Firewall Evaluation Framework..

Automated process of network documentation (2007)
Thesis
Campbell, B. Automated process of network documentation. (Thesis). Edinburgh Napier University. http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/id/eprint/4048

Knowledge of network topologies is invaluable to system administrators regardless of the size of an enterprise. Yet this information is time consuming to collect, and even more so to be processed into easily consumable formats (i.e. visual maps). Thi...

Dynamic Service Deployment using an Ontologybased Description of Devices and Services (2007)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Chrysoulas, C., Koumoutsos, G., Denazis, S., Thramboulidis, K., & Koufopavlou, O. (2007, June). Dynamic Service Deployment using an Ontologybased Description of Devices and Services. Presented at 2007 International Conference on Networking and Services, Athens, Greece

In the FlexiNET 1ST research project a service called Dynamic Service Deployment dynamically installs, monitors and uninstalls new services upon user demand, or by a default configuration. There was a need for a module to keep all the required inform... Read More about Dynamic Service Deployment using an Ontologybased Description of Devices and Services.

Establishing key dimensions for reifying soundfields and soundscapes from auditory professionals. (2007)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
McGregor, I., Crerar, A., Benyon, D., & LePlâtre, G. (2007, June). Establishing key dimensions for reifying soundfields and soundscapes from auditory professionals. Presented at ICAD 2007: The 13th International Conference on Auditory Display, Montreal, Canada

This paper presents a unique insight into the way acousticians, computing specialists and sound designers describe the dimensions of sound they use. Seventy-five audio professionals completed a detailed questionnaire created to elicit common definiti...

Finding feasible timetables using group-based operators. (2007)
Journal Article
Lewis, R. M. R., & Paechter, B. (2007). Finding feasible timetables using group-based operators. IEEE Transactions on Evolutionary Computation, 11, 397-413. https://doi.org/10.1109/TEVC.2006.885162

This paper describes the applicability of the so-called "grouping genetic algorithm" to a well-known version of the university course timetabling problem. We note that there are, in fact, various scaling up issues surrounding this sort of algorithm a... Read More about Finding feasible timetables using group-based operators..
