Regeneration friend or foe? - issues with national congestion pricing (2005)
Journal Article
McQuaid, R. W. (2005). Regeneration friend or foe? - issues with national congestion pricing. Scotregen, 4-5

There has been support for the Minister for Transport, Alistair Darling, as he took the major step of proposing trials for a national Road User or Congestion Charging scheme. According to a Department for Transport feasibility study, the cost to dri... Read More about Regeneration friend or foe? - issues with national congestion pricing.

Application of the Grouping Genetic Algorithm to University Course Timetabling (2005)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Lewis, R., Lewis, R. M. R., & Paechter, B. (2005, March). Application of the Grouping Genetic Algorithm to University Course Timetabling. Presented at 5th European Conference in Evolutionary Computation in Combinatorial Optimisation (EvoCop 2005), Lausanne, Swizerland

University Course Timetabling-Problems (UCTPs) involve the allocation of resources (such as rooms and timeslots) to all the events of a university, satisfying a set of hard-constraints and, as much as possible, some soft constraints. Here we work wit... Read More about Application of the Grouping Genetic Algorithm to University Course Timetabling.

A comparison of video and infrared based tracking of pedestrian movements. (2005)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kerridge, J., Kukla, R., Willis, A., Armitage, A., Binnie, D., & Lei, L. (2003, October). A comparison of video and infrared based tracking of pedestrian movements. Presented at Traffic and Granular Flow '03

We provide a comparison of the relative merits of video and infrared based methods for collecting pedestrian movements from the real world and also from experimental environments. We describe the underlying technological basis of both methods and the... Read More about A comparison of video and infrared based tracking of pedestrian movements..

Scientific names are ambiguous as identifiers for biological taxa: their context and definition are required for accurate data integration (2005)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kennedy, J., Kukla, R., & Paterson, T. (2005, July). Scientific names are ambiguous as identifiers for biological taxa: their context and definition are required for accurate data integration. Presented at Second International Workshop, DILS 2005

Biologists use scientific names to label the organisms described in their data; however, these names are not unique identifiers for taxonomic entities. Alternative taxonomic classifications may apply the same name, associated with alternative defi...

Shot fired dowel flitch beams. (2005)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Hairstans, R., Kermani, A., & Lawson, R. (2005). Shot fired dowel flitch beams.

Flitch beams are a form of sandwich construction using steel and timber elements. They are used in the construction of domestic dwellings when relatively high loads and long spans predominate but available depth of section is restricted in some way.... Read More about Shot fired dowel flitch beams..
