Management from the perspective of systems theory (2004)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Andras, P., & Charlton, B. G. (2004). Management from the perspective of systems theory. In Proceedings of Practising Philosophy of Management

Usual management theories focus on phenomenological aspects of organisations and management. Abstract communication systems theory offers a different approach, which can be used to analyze social systems, uncover their internal logic and structure, a...

Neural activity pattern systems (2004)
Journal Article
Andras, P. (2005). Neural activity pattern systems. Neurocomputing, 65, 531-536. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neucom.2004.10.041

Understanding how neural systems work needs appropriate models. Here we propose a model that describes neural systems in terms of abstract communication systems. We indicate how to apply the proposed framework to the analysis of real neural systems.

Bacillus Subtilis protein interaction network analysis (2004)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Idowu, O. C., Lynden, S. J., Young, M. P., & Andras, P. (2004). Bacillus Subtilis protein interaction network analysis. In Proceedings. 2004 IEEE Computational Systems Bioinformatics Conference, 2004. CSB 2004 (623-625). https://doi.org/10.1109/CSB.2004.

Identifying functionally important proteins that are essential to the survival of a bacterial cell is of considerable interest in the development of new antimicrobial agents. Recent studies have shown that functionally important components in protein... Read More about Bacillus Subtilis protein interaction network analysis.

e-Science Tools for the Analysis of Complex Systems (2004)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Idowu, O., Lynden, S., & Andras, P. (2004). e-Science Tools for the Analysis of Complex Systems. In Proc. e-Science All Hands Conference (320-325)

Many real world complex systems (e.g., protein-protein interaction networks in living cells, the Internet) can be conceptualised as graphs of interacting components, where the components are the nodes and the interactions are the edges of the grap...

Dealing with complex networks of process interactions: A security measure (2004)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Periorellis, P., Idowu, O. C., Lynden, S. J., Young, M. P., & András, P. (2004). Dealing with complex networks of process interactions: A security measure. In Proceedings. Ninth IEEE International Conference on Engineering of Complex Computer Systems (2

The majority of faults and consequent errors and failures in computer systems stem from the complexity of the system itself according to B. Schneier (2000). Yet complexity as a non-functional property is largely disregarded from initial development p... Read More about Dealing with complex networks of process interactions: A security measure.

Method and apparatus for identifying components of a network having high importance for network integrity (2004)
Patent
Young, M. P., Andras, P. E., & O'Neill, M. A. (2004). Method and apparatus for identifying components of a network having high importance for network integrity. WO2004040497A3

A computer system (2) is provided which is arranged to receive network data (1) identifying nodes and links between nodes. The computer system (2) processes the input network data (1) to utilise the network topology to identify nodes and links having...

Protein interaction network topology analysis for drug target discovery (2004)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Lynden, S., Idowu, O., Periorellis, P., Young, M., & Andras, P. (2004). Protein interaction network topology analysis for drug target discovery. In Japan Human Proteomics 2004 (54-54). https://doi.org/10.14889/jhupo.2004.0.54.0

The aim of our work is to accumulate protein interaction data and to develop computational techniques for analysing the topologies of protein interaction networks to reveal network vulnerabilities. We have developed a variety of network analysis algo... Read More about Protein interaction network topology analysis for drug target discovery.

Pattern languages: a new paradigm for neurocomputation (2004)
Journal Article
Andras, P. (2004). Pattern languages: a new paradigm for neurocomputation. Neurocomputing, 58-60, 223-228. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neucom.2004.01.047

Existing neurocomputation models do not describe very faithfully biological neural systems. Here we offer a new look at neural activity data, by introducing the paradigm of pattern languages. Biological examples are presented to provide the biologica... Read More about Pattern languages: a new paradigm for neurocomputation.
