The paper presents a new approach to the interpretation of chaotic neural activity. It is suggested that such activity forms neural objects represented as spatio-temporal firing patterns and the neural computations are performed through the interacti... Read More about The Sierpinski brain.

Active distributed monitoring for dynamic large-scale networks (2001)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Liotta, A., Pavlou, G., & Knight, G. (2001). Active distributed monitoring for dynamic large-scale networks. In ICC 2001. IEEE International Conference on Communications. Conference Record (Cat. No.01CH37240) (1544-1550). https://doi.org/10.1109/ICC.2001

Networks offering services of high availability and quality need to be carefully monitored. Their increasing size and complexity stresses the ability of currently used static centralized systems. Decentralized approaches are possible and a key issue... Read More about Active distributed monitoring for dynamic large-scale networks.

A modified generalised minimum-variance stochastic self-tuning controller with pole-zero placement (2001)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Zayed, A., Hussain, A., & Smith, L. (2001). A modified generalised minimum-variance stochastic self-tuning controller with pole-zero placement. In Proceedings. IEEE International Multi Topic Conference, 2001. IEEE INMIC 2001. Technology for the 21st Cen

The paper proposes a modified robust self-tuning controller, which minimises a cost function, incorporating system input, system output and set-point. It provides an adaptive mechanism which ensures that both the closed-loop poles and zeros are place...

An agent based Bayesian forecasting model for enhanced network security. (2001)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Pikoulas, J., Buchanan, W. J., Mannion, M., & Triantafyllopoulos, K. (2001). An agent based Bayesian forecasting model for enhanced network security. In Proceedings. Eighth Annual IEEE International Conference and Workshop On the Engineering of Computer-

Security has become a major issue in many organisations, but most systems still rely on operating systems, and a user ID and password system to provide user authentication and validation. They also tend to be centralized in their approach which makes... Read More about An agent based Bayesian forecasting model for enhanced network security..

Social exchange for knowledge exchange (2001)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Hall, H. (2001). Social exchange for knowledge exchange. In Managing knowledge: conversations and critiques, University of Leicester Management Centre, 10-11 April 2001 (1-23)

The factors that motivate people to codify and share knowledge for the benefit of others have been identified as a priority area for individual companies (Smith & Farquhar, 2000, p. 27). They represent the most commonly discussed topic amongst prac... Read More about Social exchange for knowledge exchange.
