From Placards to Partnership: the changing nature of community activism and infrastructure in Manchester, UK and Auckland, Aotearoa New Zealand. (2008)
Preprint / Working Paper
Milligan, C., Kyle, R. G., Bondi, L., Fyfe, N. R., Kearns, R. A., & Larner, W. From Placards to Partnership: the changing nature of community activism and infrastructure in Manchester, UK and Auckland, Aotearoa New Zealand

First paragraph: This report details the findings of a comprehensive cross-national analysis of how new sites of local governance, particularly partnerships, act to encourage or discourage voluntary activism. It is based upon findings from a two-year...

MARIAN: A hybrid, metric-driven, agent-based routing protocol for multihop ad-hoc networks (2008)
Thesis
Migas, N. MARIAN: A hybrid, metric-driven, agent-based routing protocol for multihop ad-hoc networks. (Thesis). Edinburgh Napier University. http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/id/eprint/4000

Recent advances in technology provided the ground for highly dynamic, mobile, infrastructure-less networks, namely, ad-hoc networks. Despite their enormous benefits, the full potential cannot be reached unless certain issues are resolved. These mainl...

Public private partnership-a sustainable solution for the information society? experiences in the UK, Germany and Austria (2008)
Journal Article
McQuaid, R. W., & Scherrer, W. (2008). Public private partnership-a sustainable solution for the information society? experiences in the UK, Germany and Austria. Uprava, 6, 7-34

The political context of governments differs between the UK, Germany and Austria, but each government currently has a positive view of Public private Partnership (PPP). There are many similarities to the drivers for PPPs in Austria, Germany and the U...

Application of reset voltage feedback for droop minimization in the unidirectional current pulse transformer (2008)
Journal Article
McNeill, N., Gupta, N. K., Burrow, S. G., Holliday, D., & Mellor, P. H. (2008). Application of reset voltage feedback for droop minimization in the unidirectional current pulse transformer. IEEE Transactions on Power Electronics, 23, 591-599. https://doi.org/10.1109/TPEL.2007.915662

This paper investigates the application of reset voltage feedback for reducing errors due to droop in the signal derived from a current transformer sensing unidirectional current pulses in switched-mode power converter applications. Droop is minimise... Read More about Application of reset voltage feedback for droop minimization in the unidirectional current pulse transformer.

Assessment of the error in the average current sensed by the unidirectional current pulse transformer (2008)
Journal Article
McNeill, N., & Gupta, N. K. (2008). Assessment of the error in the average current sensed by the unidirectional current pulse transformer. IET Circuits, Devices and Systems, 2, 265. https://doi.org/10.1049/iet-cds%3A20070226

Advantages of using a current transformer (CT) for current sensing in switched mode power converters are that galvanic isolation is inherent, losses are low, the bandwidth is high and a high-amplitude output signal may be obtained. However, 'droop' o... Read More about Assessment of the error in the average current sensed by the unidirectional current pulse transformer.

Visualising the soundfield and soundscape: extending Macaulay and Crerar’s 1998 method (2008)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
McGregor, I., Crerar, A., Benyon, D., & LePlâtre, G. (2008, June). Visualising the soundfield and soundscape: extending Macaulay and Crerar’s 1998 method. Presented at ICAD 2008: The 14th annual International Conference on Auditory Display, Paris, France

The introduction of effective auditory warnings into a shared environment requires a prior understanding of the existing soundfield and soundscape. Reifying the physical and perceptual auditory environment enables a form of pre-auditioning, as well a...
