An exploration of professional identity in the information technology sector (2016)
Thesis
Smith, S. (2016). An exploration of professional identity in the information technology sector. (Thesis). Edinburgh Napier University. http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/id/eprint/9731

At present the Information Technology profession appears to be dogged by high profile project failure, high graduate unemployment rates, employers unable to recruit suitable staff and a professional body under attack. It is not even clear that IT can... Read More about An exploration of professional identity in the information technology sector.

Web engineering for the evaluation of large complex web systems: methodologies in web metrics (2016)
Thesis
Zahran, D. I. Web engineering for the evaluation of large complex web systems: methodologies in web metrics. (Thesis). Edinburgh Napier University. http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/Output/978652

Roaming the Internet, users sometimes encounter severe problems or feel dissatisfied using a particular site. E-government websites are the public gateways to access information and services but there is still no agreement on how to assess a governme...

Appropriating interaction (2016)
Thesis
Flint, T. E. Appropriating interaction. (Thesis). Edinburgh Napier University. http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/Output/453421

This thesis is concerned with the fact that people routinely appropriate interactive technology. Much of the work in this project was conducted at The Public, an interactive art gallery in West Bromwich. Examples of appropriation that are presented r... Read More about Appropriating interaction.

Tracking, Analysis and Measurement of Pedestrian Trajectories (2016)
Thesis
Clayton, S. E. (2016). Tracking, Analysis and Measurement of Pedestrian Trajectories. (Thesis). Edinburgh Napier University. http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/Output/452997

Pedestrian movement is unconstrained. For this reason it is not amenable to mathematical modelling in the same way as road traffic. Individual pedestrians are notoriously difficult to monitor at a microscopic level. This has led to a lack of primary...

Participation Space Studies: a socio-technical exploration of activist and community groups’ use of online and offline spaces to support their work (2016)
Thesis
Taylor-Smith, E. Participation Space Studies: a socio-technical exploration of activist and community groups’ use of online and offline spaces to support their work. (Thesis). Edinburgh Napier University. http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/Output/36

Participation Space Studies explore eParticipation in the day-to-day activities of local, citizen-led groups, working to improve their communities. The focus is the relationship between activities and contexts. The concept of a participation space is...

A Multidimensional Sketching Interface for Visual Interaction with Corpus-Based Concatenative Sound Synthesis (2016)
Thesis
Tsiros, A. (2016). A Multidimensional Sketching Interface for Visual Interaction with Corpus-Based Concatenative Sound Synthesis. (Thesis). Edinburgh Napier University. http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/Output/463438

The present research sought to investigate the correspondence between auditory and visual feature dimensions and to utilise this knowledge in order to inform the design of audio-visual mappings for visual control of sound synthesis. The first stage o... Read More about A Multidimensional Sketching Interface for Visual Interaction with Corpus-Based Concatenative Sound Synthesis.

Visualizing genetic transmission patterns in plant pedigrees. (2016)
Thesis
Shaw, P. D. (2016). Visualizing genetic transmission patterns in plant pedigrees. (Thesis). Edinburgh Napier University. http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/Output/463271

Ensuring food security in a world with an increasing population and demand on natural resources is becoming ever more pertinent. Plant breeders are using an increasingly diverse range of data types such as phenotypic and genotypic data to identify pl...
