Modeling living systems (2009)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Andras, P. (2009). Modeling living systems. In Advances in Artificial Life: Darwin Meets von Neumann, 10th European Conference, ECAL 2009, Budapest, Hungary, September 13-16, 2009, Revised Selected Papers, Part II (208-215). https://doi.org/10.1007/978-

A fundamental issue of evolution of life is the emergence and maintenance of self-referential autocatalytic systems (e.g. living cells). In this paper the problem is analyzed from a computational perspective. It is proposed that such systems have to... Read More about Modeling living systems.

Networks of artificial social interactions (2009)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Andras, P. (2009). Networks of artificial social interactions. In Advances in Artificial Life: Darwin Meets von Neumann, 10th European Conference, ECAL 2009, Budapest, Hungary, September 13-16, 2009, Revised Selected Papers, Part II (383-390). https://d

Evolution of cooperation is a fundamental question of socio-biology. Intrinsic factors like kinship play an important role in cooperation among selfish individuals. External factors like uncertainty and the structure of the social interaction network... Read More about Networks of artificial social interactions.

A Zigbee based wireless sensor network for sewerage monitoring (2009)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
See, C., Horoshenkov, K., Tait, S., Abd-Alhameed, R., Hu, Y., Elkhazmi, E., & Gardiner, J. (2009). A Zigbee based wireless sensor network for sewerage monitoring. In 2009 Asia Pacific Microwave Conference (731-734). https://doi.org/10.1109/apmc.2009.5384

Blockages in sewers are major causes of both sewer flooding and pollution. Water companies which fail to tackle this problem face hefty fines and high operational costs if they unsuccessful to provide a practical solution to prevent flooding. As a re...

Precise computation of the induced fields inside biological cell tissue using floquet boundary and subgridding quasi-static FDTD method (2009)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Ramli, K., Abd-Alhameed, R., See, C., Zhou, D., Elkhazmi, E., & Excell, P. (2009). Precise computation of the induced fields inside biological cell tissue using floquet boundary and subgridding quasi-static FDTD method. In 2009 Asia Pacific Microwave Con

This paper demonstrates the detailed electromagnetic modelling of biological cell structures by using modified subgridding FDTD techniques. This is done by incorporating a quasi-static FDTD solution, Floquet periodic boundary conditions and modified...

Miniature dual-frequency half planar inverted F-L-antenna for WLAN/cellular applications (2009)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
See, C., Abd-Alhameed, R., Zhou, D., Elkhazmi, E., Abusitta, M., Ramli, K., & Excell, P. (2009). Miniature dual-frequency half planar inverted F-L-antenna for WLAN/cellular applications. In 2009 Asia Pacific Microwave Conference (2802-2804). https://doi.

A reduced size miniature dual-bands planar inverted F-L antenna for WLAN and cellular applications is achieved by applying the magnetic wall concept. The proposed antenna provides a 12% and 9.3% bandwidth at S₁₁ < -10 dB for 2.5 GHz and 5.2 GHz WLAN...

Inclusive design for ordinary users in extraordinary circumstances (2009)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Keates, S. (2009). Inclusive design for ordinary users in extraordinary circumstances. In C. Stephanidis (Ed.), Universal Access in Human-Computer Interaction. Addressing Diversity. 5th International Conference, UAHCI 2009, Proceedings, Part I (525-534).

Universal access is commonly interpreted as focusing on designing for users with atypical requirements ? specifically users with disabilities or older adults. However, universal access is also about providing access to users in all situations and cir... Read More about Inclusive design for ordinary users in extraordinary circumstances.

Cognitive impairments, HCI and daily living (2009)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Keates, S., Kozloski, J., & Varker, P. (2009). Cognitive impairments, HCI and daily living. In C. Stephanidis (Ed.), Universal Access in Human-Computer Interaction. Addressing Diversity. 5th International Conference, UAHCI 2009, Proceedings, Part I (366-3

As computer systems become increasingly more pervasive in everyday life, it is simultaneously becoming ever more important that the concept of universal access is accepted as a design mantra. While many physical impairments and their implications for... Read More about Cognitive impairments, HCI and daily living.

Internationalisation of undergraduate civil engineering students: a collaborative European network (2009)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Taylor, M. D., Smith, I., de Klerk, P. J., & Bierlaagh, G. J. (2009). Internationalisation of undergraduate civil engineering students: a collaborative European network.

Internationalisation in higher education can be defined as the process of integrating an international and intercultural dimension to teaching. The need for preparing civil engineering graduates to work in an increasingly international society comb...

Delivering infrastructure and land use transport integration policy: examining good governance issues in Melbourne and Perth. (2009)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Legacy, C., Sturup, S., Curtis, C., & Wigan, M. (2009). Delivering infrastructure and land use transport integration policy: examining good governance issues in Melbourne and Perth.

Governance is a difficult topic to address in the often controversial area of transport and planning. Good governance allows issues associated with balancing different interests, objectives and pressures, to be addressed and solved - but its absence...
