Agent-based forensic investigations with an integrated framework. (2005)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Buchanan, W. J., Graves, J., Saliou, L., Sebea, A. L., & Migas, N. (2005, July 11-12). Agent-based forensic investigations with an integrated framework.. 4th European Conference of Information Warfare and Security. http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/id/eprint/3953

Forensics investigations can be flawed for many reasons, such as that they can lack any real evidence of an incident. Also, it can be the case that the legal rights of an individual has been breached, or that the steps taken in the investigation cann...

Analysis of an agent-based metric-driven method for ad-hoc, on-demand routing (2005)
Journal Article
Buchanan, W. J., Migas, N., Sinclair, G., & McArtney, K. (2006). Analysis of an agent-based metric-driven method for ad-hoc, on-demand routing. Ad hoc networks, 4(2), 147-167. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.adhoc.2004.04.009

Ad-hoc networks could bring many benefits over traditional, fixed networks. Unfortunately, they have many difficulties, including the selection of the optimal route, the availability of routes as mobile nodes move around the physical space, and probl...

Correlation between academic and skills-based tests in computer networks (2005)
Journal Article
Buchanan, W. (2006). Correlation between academic and skills-based tests in computer networks. British Journal of Educational Technology, 37(1), 69-78. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1467-8535.2005.00476.x

Computing-related programmes and modules have many problems, especially related to large class sizes, large-scale plagiarism, module franchising, and an increased requirement from students for increased amounts of hands-on, practical work. This paper... Read More about Correlation between academic and skills-based tests in computer networks.

Novel Framework for Automated Security Abstraction, Modelling, Implementation and Verification (2005)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Saliou, L., Buchanan, W. J., Graves, J., & Munoz, J. (2005, July 11-12). Novel Framework for Automated Security Abstraction, Modelling, Implementation and Verification. 4th European Conference on Information Warfare and Security. http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/id/eprint/2600

This paper presents a novel framework for network security, and provides a complete solution to integrated security policies, which meets the objectives of an organisation, and also an automated verification process. The framework uses a security com... Read More about Novel Framework for Automated Security Abstraction, Modelling, Implementation and Verification.

Metric Evaluation of Embedded Java-Based Proxies on Handheld Devices in Cluster-Based Ad Hoc Routing (2005)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Migas, N., & Buchanan, W. J. (2005). Metric Evaluation of Embedded Java-Based Proxies on Handheld Devices in Cluster-Based Ad Hoc Routing. The 2005 IEEE Congress on Evolutionary Computation (3, pp. 147-154). IEEE. https://doi.org/10.1109/ecbs.2005.51

Ad-hoc wireless networks, which use ad-hoc routing methods may prove a good solution in certain applications, especially where networks have to be constructed where there is no possibly of creating a network backbone, and in emergency situations. The... Read More about Metric Evaluation of Embedded Java-Based Proxies on Handheld Devices in Cluster-Based Ad Hoc Routing.

Critical analysis and error determination of locating-finding techniques in GSM. (2005)
Journal Article
Buchanan, W. J., Raja, A., & Munoz, J. (2005). Critical analysis and error determination of locating-finding techniques in GSM. International Journal of Mobile Communications, 3, 165-182. https://doi.org/10.1504/IJMC.2005.005905

GPS is a well-established technique for location-finding, but mobile phone-based methods are generally less expensive to implement, and can give reasonable accuracies. These techniques can thus be useful to network operators in providing services bas... Read More about Critical analysis and error determination of locating-finding techniques in GSM..
