Open transport modeling networking for transportation applications. (2002)
Preprint / Working Paper
Wigan, M., & Drain, P. Open transport modeling networking for transportation applications

Transport modeling has developed to a stage where there is a wide range of tools, but a high level of dependence on commercial systems. Recent developments in software and licensing approaches have underpinned the rapid development of robust open s...

Inclusive design: Reflections on design practice (2002)
Preprint / Working Paper
Dong, H., Cardoso, C., Cassim, J., Keates, S., & Clarkson, P. J. (2002). Inclusive design: Reflections on design practice

To investigate the practice of inclusive design in an industrial context and to gain an insight into the industrial perspectives, eight UK design consultancies' participation of the DBA design Challenges were reviewed through formal interviews. It is... Read More about Inclusive design: Reflections on design practice.

Firing Rate Modulation by Backward Propagating Potential Waves (2002)
Preprint / Working Paper
András, P. (2002). Firing Rate Modulation by Backward Propagating Potential Waves

The paper investigates the role of backward propagating potential waves in the regulation of the firing rate input ‐ output transformation function of neurons. The analysis is performed using a simple one dimensional neuron model that allows backward... Read More about Firing Rate Modulation by Backward Propagating Potential Waves.

The Prometheus II Description Model: an objective approach to representing taxonomic descriptions (2002)
Preprint / Working Paper
MacDonald, S. M., Raguenaud, C., Pullan, M. R., Kennedy, J., Russell, G., & Watson, M. F. The Prometheus II Description Model: an objective approach to representing taxonomic descriptions

A model for improving the storage and communication of plant descriptions is presented. The model is flexible and yet reduces the ambiguity often present in text descriptions. The fundamental idea behind the model is the necessity for clear represent... Read More about The Prometheus II Description Model: an objective approach to representing taxonomic descriptions.

Changing perceptions: an analysis of long-term unemployment in five areas of Edinburgh. (2002)
Preprint / Working Paper
Hollywood, E., Lindsay, C., McQuaid, R. W., & Winterton, J. Changing perceptions: an analysis of long-term unemployment in five areas of Edinburgh

This project involved research into the barriers to work faced by very long-term unemployed people in five disadvantaged areas of Edinburgh. Interviews were carried out with 115 job seekers who had been out of work for more than one year and resided...

Design for all: designing for the motion-impaired user. (1998)
Preprint / Working Paper
Clarkson, P., & Keates, S. (1998). Design for all: designing for the motion-impaired user

Designing for all requires the adaptation and modification of current design best practices to encompass a broader range of user capabilities. This is particularly the case in the design of the human-product interface. Product interfaces exist everyw... Read More about Design for all: designing for the motion-impaired user..

IoT for a shock warning system
Preprint / Working Paper
Brogan, J., Thuemmler, C., Mival, O., & Fricker, S. (2014). IoT for a shock warning system

This technical paper details the interdependencies between Internet of Things (IoT) and latest Future Internet (FI) technology, demonstrated by using the example of a smart connected health (SCH) use case, for the monitoring and prevention of shock i...
