Covert channel analysis and detection using reverse proxy servers. (2004)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Buchanan, W. J., & Llamas, D. (2004, June). Covert channel analysis and detection using reverse proxy servers. Paper presented at 3rd International Conference on Electronic Warfare and Security (EIWC)

Data hiding methods can be used by intruders to communicate over open data channels (Wolf 1989; McHugh 1995; deVivo, deVivo et al. 1999), and can be used to overcome firewalls, and most other forms of network intrusion detection systems. In fact, mos... Read More about Covert channel analysis and detection using reverse proxy servers..

The social influence scale for midwifery: factor structure and clinical research applications (2004)
Journal Article
Hollins Martin, C. J., Bull, P., & Martin, C. R. (2004). The social influence scale for midwifery: factor structure and clinical research applications. Clinical Effectiveness in Nursing, 8(2), 118-121. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cein.2004.09.003

The role of perceived authority on the clinical behaviour and decision-making of midwives has received little research attention, largely due to the unavailability of a midwifery-specific measure of conformity. The current study investigated the fact... Read More about The social influence scale for midwifery: factor structure and clinical research applications.

A Note on When the Sleeper Wakes and Heart of Darkness (2004)
Journal Article
Dryden, L. (2004). A Note on When the Sleeper Wakes and Heart of Darkness. Notes and Queries, 171-174

This article discusses the fact that Heart of Darkness is mentioned in H. G. Wells's When the Sleeper Wakes. It argues that due to publication dates, it would seem that Wells knew about Conrad's story and may well have seen the manuscript.

Making portfolios work in practice (2004)
Journal Article
Scholes, J., Webb, C., Gray, M., Endacott, R., Miller, C., Jasper, M., & McMullan, M. (2004). Making portfolios work in practice. Journal of Advanced Nursing, 46(6), 595-603. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2648.2004.03050.x

Background. A portfolio captures learning from experience, enables an assessor to measure student learning, acts as a tool for reflective thinking, illustrates critical analytical skills and evidence of self-directed learning and provides a collectio...

Evaluating train protection systems (2004)
Journal Article
Riddington, G., Beck, M., & Cowie, J. (2004). Evaluating train protection systems. Journal of the Operational Research Society, 55(6), 606-613. https://doi.org/10.1057/palgrave.jors.2601724

This paper arose from the work carried out for the Cullen/Uff Joint Inquiry into Train Protection Systems. It is concerned with the problem of evaluating the benefits of safety enhancements in order to avoid rare, but catastrophic accidents, and the... Read More about Evaluating train protection systems.

Crane erection of timber-trussed rafter roofs (2004)
Journal Article
Hairstans, R., Kermani, A., & Lawson, R. (2004). Crane erection of timber-trussed rafter roofs. Proceedings of the ICE - Engineering Sustainability, 157(2), 89-98. https://doi.org/10.1680/ensu.157.2.89.41080

Traditional methods of timber frame construction are labour-intensive and time-consuming. This paper details a study of the crane-erect method of construction which utilises on-site preparatory work and off-site fabrication. The paper also examin...

Towards scalable collective communication for multicomputer interconnection networks (2004)
Journal Article
Al-Dubai, A., Ould-Khaoua, M., El-Zayyat, K., Ababneh, I., & Al-Dobai, S. (2004). Towards scalable collective communication for multicomputer interconnection networks. Information Sciences, 163(4), 293-306. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ins.2003.06.014

A considerable number of broadcast algorithms have been proposed for the mesh over the past decade. Nonetheless, most of these algorithms do not exhibit good scalability properties as the network size increases. As a consequence, most existing broadc...
