Presentation / Conference Contribution
Buchanan, W. J., Uthmani, O., Fan, L., Burns, N., Lo, O., Lawson, A., …Anderson, C. (2013). Modelling of integrated trust, governance and access safi.re: Information Sharing Architecture. In M. Felici (Ed.), Cyber Security and Privacy (91-101). https://

We live in a world where trust relationships are becoming ever more important. This paper outlines how an architecture which abstracts these relationships between domains, organisations and units, into a formal definition, and then implement these as...

Evaluation of binary decision diagrams for redundancy, shadowing, generalisation and correlation in an Information sharing model. (2013)
Preprint / Working Paper
Uthmani, O., Buchanan, W. J., Fan, L., & Lawson, A. Evaluation of binary decision diagrams for redundancy, shadowing, generalisation and correlation in an Information sharing model

This paper defines a structured methodology which is based on the foundational work of Al-Shaer et al. in [1] and that of Hamed and Al-Shaer in [2]. It defines a methodology for the declaration of policy field elements, through to the syntax, ontolog...

A novel Information sharing model using binary decision diagrams for redundancy, shadowing, generalisation and correlation. (2013)
Preprint / Working Paper
Uthmani, O., Buchanan, W. J., Fan, L., & Lawson, A. A novel Information sharing model using binary decision diagrams for redundancy, shadowing, generalisation and correlation

This paper outlines a novel information sharing method using Binary Decision Diagrams (BBDs). It is inspired by the work of Al-Shaer and Hamed, who applied BDDs into the modelling of network firewalls. This is applied into an information sharing poli...

Investigations of impacts of junction design on emissions: are our junctions sustainable? (2013)
Journal Article
Saleh, W., & Lawson, A. (2013). Investigations of impacts of junction design on emissions: are our junctions sustainable?. World journal of science, technology and sustainable development, 10(2), 143-151. https://doi.org/10.1108/20425941311323145

Purpose - An investigation of the driving behaviour and impacts on emission at two traffic junctions Design/methodology/approach - A signalised junction and a roundabout in Edinburgh have been selected. An instrumented car has been used and a GPS... Read More about Investigations of impacts of junction design on emissions: are our junctions sustainable?.
