Managing Missed Interactions in Distributed Virtual Environments (2006)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Parkin, S., Andras, P., & Morgan, G. (2006). Managing Missed Interactions in Distributed Virtual Environments. In EGVE'06: Proceedings of the 12th Eurographics conference on Virtual Environments (27-34)

A scalable distributed virtual environment (DVE) may be achieved by ensuring virtual world objects communicate their actions to only those objects that fall within their influence, reducing the need to send and process unnecessary messages. A missed... Read More about Managing Missed Interactions in Distributed Virtual Environments.

An approach to obtain compact multi-level mixed polarity Reed-Muller functions with onset table. (2006)
Journal Article
Wang, L. Y., Xia, Y., Yang, M., & Almaini, A. E. A. (2006). An approach to obtain compact multi-level mixed polarity Reed-Muller functions with onset table. WSEAS Transactions on Circuits and Systems, 5, 625-632

In this paper, an approach to obtain the compact multi-level mixed polarity Reed-Muller (MMPRM) from an FPRM function is discussed. By operating on the onset table with rows (columns) swapping and table dividing, some operators such as extraction of...

This paper applies a specific research methodology designed to evaluate and compare competing seaport locations within a given region as the optimal site for international container transhipment activity. The main focus is on container transhipment h... Read More about Optimising the container transhipment hub location in northern Europe.

Design of broadband slotted ground plane microstrip antenna for 3G communication (2006)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Abd-Alhameed, R., Ali, N., See, C., Gizas, B., & Excell, P. (2006, May). Design of broadband slotted ground plane microstrip antenna for 3G communication. Presented at 2006 IEEE Mediterranean Electrotechnical Conference (MELECON), Malaga, Spain

Designs for small, lightweight and low profile broadband antennas, able to operate within the 3G frequency band, are proposed and investigated. By inserting different shapes of slot in the ground plane and loading the antenna with high permittivity,...
