Analysis of an agent-based metric-driven method for ad-hoc, on-demand routing (2005)
Journal Article
Buchanan, W. J., Migas, N., Sinclair, G., & McArtney, K. (2006). Analysis of an agent-based metric-driven method for ad-hoc, on-demand routing. Ad hoc networks, 4(2), 147-167. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.adhoc.2004.04.009

Ad-hoc networks could bring many benefits over traditional, fixed networks. Unfortunately, they have many difficulties, including the selection of the optimal route, the availability of routes as mobile nodes move around the physical space, and probl...

Correlation between academic and skills-based tests in computer networks (2005)
Journal Article
Buchanan, W. (2006). Correlation between academic and skills-based tests in computer networks. British Journal of Educational Technology, 37(1), 69-78. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1467-8535.2005.00476.x

Computing-related programmes and modules have many problems, especially related to large class sizes, large-scale plagiarism, module franchising, and an increased requirement from students for increased amounts of hands-on, practical work. This paper... Read More about Correlation between academic and skills-based tests in computer networks.

Critical analysis and error determination of locating-finding techniques in GSM. (2005)
Journal Article
Buchanan, W. J., Raja, A., & Munoz, J. (2005). Critical analysis and error determination of locating-finding techniques in GSM. International Journal of Mobile Communications, 3, 165-182. https://doi.org/10.1504/IJMC.2005.005905

GPS is a well-established technique for location-finding, but mobile phone-based methods are generally less expensive to implement, and can give reasonable accuracies. These techniques can thus be useful to network operators in providing services bas... Read More about Critical analysis and error determination of locating-finding techniques in GSM..
