New crossover operators for timetabling with evolutionary algorithms. (2004)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Lewis, R. M. R., & Paechter, B. (2004, December). New crossover operators for timetabling with evolutionary algorithms

When using an evolutionary algorithm (EA) to optimise a population of feasible course timetables, it is important that the mutation and crossover operators are designed in such a way so that they don?t produce unfeasible or illegal offspring. In this... Read More about New crossover operators for timetabling with evolutionary algorithms..

Monitoring the movement of pedestrians using low-cost infrared detectors: initial findings. (2004)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kerridge, J., Armitage, A., Binnie, D., Lei, L., & Sumpter, N. (2004, January). Monitoring the movement of pedestrians using low-cost infrared detectors: initial findings. Presented at TRB Annual Meeting, Washington DC

Monitoring the movement of pedestrians in everyday environments is difficult, especially if accurate data are required. Typically, data pertaining to the origins and destinations of pedestrians as they move around a space can be obtained only by eith...

Ontology-Driven Automated Generation of Data Entry Interfaces to Databases (2004)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Cannon, A., Kennedy, J. B., Paterson, T., & Watson, M. F. (2004, July). Ontology-Driven Automated Generation of Data Entry Interfaces to Databases. Presented at Key Technologies for Data Management (Proc. BNCOD21): Lecture Notes in Computer Science 3112, Edinburgh, Scotland

This paper discusses an ontology based approach for the automatic generation of data entry interfaces to databases. An existing domain ontology is mapped to a system domain model, which a domain expert can then specialise using their domain expertise...

Analysis and migration of location-finding methods for GSM and 3G networks. (2004)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Buchanan, W. J., Munoz, J., Manson, R., & Raja, K. A. (2004, October). Analysis and migration of location-finding methods for GSM and 3G networks. Presented at 3G Mobile Communication Technologies, 2004. 3G 2004. Fifth IEE International Conference on, London

This paper initially reviews the current range of location techniques on GSM networks, such as Cell-ID, GPS, AGPS, time difference of arrival (TDOA) and E-OTD (enhanced observed time difference). It shows how these techniques can be applied to the fu... Read More about Analysis and migration of location-finding methods for GSM and 3G networks..

Human movement behaviour in urban spaces: Implications for the design and modelling of effective pedestrian environments. (2004)
Journal Article
Willis, A., Gjersoe, N., Havard, C., Kerridge, J., & Kukla, R. (2004). Human movement behaviour in urban spaces: Implications for the design and modelling of effective pedestrian environments. Environment and planning. B, Planning & design, 31(6), 805-828. https://doi.org/10.1068/b3060

Despite a burgeoning research effort directed at the design and modelling of effective urban spaces for pedestrians, remarkably little is known about how pedestrians actually negotiate urban spaces. This paper reports the results of a video-based obs... Read More about Human movement behaviour in urban spaces: Implications for the design and modelling of effective pedestrian environments..
