Extraction of an activity pattern language from EEG data (2006)
Journal Article
Andras, P. (2006). Extraction of an activity pattern language from EEG data. Neurocomputing, 69(10-12), 1313-1316. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neucom.2005.12.099

Recent research shows that activity patterns play an important role in neural information processing. This seems to be the case both at micro- and macro-level processes within the nervous system. An important question is how to extract such activity... Read More about Extraction of an activity pattern language from EEG data.

published algorithms in... Read More about Algorithms in computer-aided design of VLSI circuits..

Study of stratification in a (ICSSWH) Integrated CollectorStorage Solar Water Heater. (2006)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Junaidi, H., Henderson, D., Muneer, T., Grassie, T., & Currie, J. (2006). Study of stratification in a (ICSSWH) Integrated CollectorStorage Solar Water Heater.

Stratification inside the water storage tank of a solar heater is a desirable natural phenomenon that improves the collector output. For an ICS storage heater type, where the storage tank is in direct contact with the heating surface (absorber plate)...

Public private partnership - experiences of ICT in the UK, Germany and Austria (2006)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
McQuaid, R. W., & Scherrer, W. (2006). Public private partnership - experiences of ICT in the UK, Germany and Austria.

The political context of governments differs between the UK, Germany and Austria, but each government currently has a positive view of PPP. There are many similarities to the drivers for PPPs in Austria, Germany and the UK. The UK has had more experi...
