Exact minimization of large fixed polarity dual form of reed-muller functions (2007)
Journal Article
Yang, M., Xu, H., Wang, L. Y., Tong, J. R., & Almaini, A. E. A. (2007). Exact minimization of large fixed polarity dual form of reed-muller functions. Solid-State and Integrated Circuit Technology, 1931-1933. https://doi.org/10.1109/ICSICT.2006.306532

Dual form of Reed-Muller (DFRM) expansions are implemented in OX/XNOR logic, which are based on the features of coincidence operation and are known as fixed polarity Canonical OR-Coincidence (COC) expansions. An efficient minimization method is propo... Read More about Exact minimization of large fixed polarity dual form of reed-muller functions.

Modeling Pedestrian Walking Speeds on Sidewalks (2007)
Journal Article
Raeside, R., & Al-Azzawi, M. (2007). Modeling Pedestrian Walking Speeds on Sidewalks. Journal of Urban Planning and Development, 133(3), 211-219. https://doi.org/10.1061/%28ASCE%290733-9488%282007%29133%3A3%28211%29

Several models have been created over the years that are used in simulation packages to predict pedestrian speed and flow on sidewalks. However, the predictive power of these models has been weak. In this paper the results of a modeling exercise in t... Read More about Modeling Pedestrian Walking Speeds on Sidewalks.

Finding feasible timetables using group-based operators. (2007)
Journal Article
Lewis, R. M. R., & Paechter, B. (2007). Finding feasible timetables using group-based operators. IEEE Transactions on Evolutionary Computation, 11, 397-413. https://doi.org/10.1109/TEVC.2006.885162

This paper describes the applicability of the so-called "grouping genetic algorithm" to a well-known version of the university course timetabling problem. We note that there are, in fact, various scaling up issues surrounding this sort of algorithm a... Read More about Finding feasible timetables using group-based operators..

Evaluation of a new photodiode sensor for measuring global and diffuse irradiance, and sunshine duration. (2007)
Journal Article
Wood, J., Muneer, T., & Kubie, J. (2007). Evaluation of a new photodiode sensor for measuring global and diffuse irradiance, and sunshine duration. Journal of Solar Energy Engineering, 125, 1-6. https://doi.org/10.1115/1.1531149

A new integrated device (called the BF3) has been developed, which enables the simultaneous measurement of horizontal global and diffuse irradiance as well as sunshine presence at any time. The sensor needs no specific polar alignment or routine adju... Read More about Evaluation of a new photodiode sensor for measuring global and diffuse irradiance, and sunshine duration..

Iterative control in automotive testing. (2007)
Journal Article
Hay, N. C., & Roberts, D. E. (2007). Iterative control in automotive testing. Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part I: Journal of Systems and Control Engineering, 221(2), 223-233. https://doi.org/10.1243/09596518JSCE306

Road simulator test rigs investigate both the durability and the squeak and rattle characteristics of vehicle structures. The test specimens are the whole vehicle or a sub-structure taken from the vehicle. In laboratory simulation tests, random time... Read More about Iterative control in automotive testing..
