Scientific names are ambiguous as identifiers for biological taxa: their context and definition are required for accurate data integration (2005)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kennedy, J., Kukla, R., & Paterson, T. (2005, July). Scientific names are ambiguous as identifiers for biological taxa: their context and definition are required for accurate data integration. Presented at Second International Workshop, DILS 2005, San Diego, CA, USA

Biologists use scientific names to label the organisms described in
their data; however, these names are not unique identifiers for taxonomic entities.
Alternative taxonomic classifications may apply the same name, associated
with alternative defi... Read More about Scientific names are ambiguous as identifiers for biological taxa: their context and definition are required for accurate data integration.

In this paper, we will describe a number of research projects at Napier University on pedestrian tracking. This work started with systems based on ordinary cameras working at visible wavelengths. This work has expanded to include infrared imaging sys... Read More about Tracking pedestrians using visible and infrared systems.

Peer-to-peer networks for scalable grid landscapes in social agent simulations. (2005)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Craenen, B. G. W., & Paechter, B. (2005, April). Peer-to-peer networks for scalable grid landscapes in social agent simulations. Presented at AISB’05 Convention Social Intelligence and Interaction in Animals, Robots and Agents, Hatfield, UK

Recently, peer-to-peer networks have been proposed as the underlying architecture of large scale distributed social agent simulations. A number of problems arise when grid landscapes are used to represent the landscape in these simulations, primarily...

Application of the Grouping Genetic Algorithm to University Course Timetabling (2005)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Lewis, R., Lewis, R. M. R., & Paechter, B. (2005, March). Application of the Grouping Genetic Algorithm to University Course Timetabling. Presented at 5th European Conference in Evolutionary Computation in Combinatorial Optimisation (EvoCop 2005), Lausanne, Swizerland

University Course Timetabling-Problems (UCTPs) involve the allocation of resources (such as rooms and timeslots) to all the events of a university, satisfying a set of hard-constraints and, as much as possible, some soft constraints. Here we work wit... Read More about Application of the Grouping Genetic Algorithm to University Course Timetabling.

Formal concept analysis as a methodology of data analysis and knowledge representation has potential to be applied to a variety of linguistic problems. First, linguistic applications often involve the identification and analysis of features, such as... Read More about Linguistic applications of formal concept analysis..

Groovy Parallel! A Return to the Spirit of occam? (2005)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kerridge, J., Barclay, K., & Savage, J. (2005, September). Groovy Parallel! A Return to the Spirit of occam?. Presented at 28th Communicating Process Architectures Conference, CPA 2005, Eindhoven, The Netherlands

For some years there has been much activity in developing CSP-like extensions to a number of common programming languages. In particular, a number of groups have looked at extensions to Java. Recent developments in the Java platform have resulted in... Read More about Groovy Parallel! A Return to the Spirit of occam?.

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...

The Prometheus Description Model: an examination of the taxonomic description-building process and its representation (2005)
Journal Article
Pullan, M. R., Armstrong, K. E., Paterson, T., Cannon, A., Kennedy, J. B., Watson, M. F., McDonald, S. M., & Raguenaud, C. (2005).
