DISCOVERing the impact of reality (poster session) (2000)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Dawson, L., Turner, S., Turner, P., Dawson, L., & Munro, A. (2000, September). DISCOVERing the impact of reality (poster session). Presented at Proceedings of the third international conference on Collaborative virtual environments - CVE '00

In this poster paper, we introduce the DISCOVER project, which
is developing a CVE for teams to practice managing emergencies
in offshore and maritime domains. Many factors constrain design
in such contexts. Here we describe just one of them, the... Read More about DISCOVERing the impact of reality (poster session).

Software agents and computer network security. (2000)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Pikoulas, J., Mannion, M., & Buchanan, W. J. (2000, April). Software agents and computer network security

Preventing unauthorised access to corporate information systems is essential for many organisations. To address this problem we built a security enhancement software system using software agents, in which a core software agent resides on a server and...

Speed and scale up software re-engineering with abstraction patterns and rules. (2000)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Liu, X., Yang, H., Zedan, H., & Cau, A. (2000, November). Speed and scale up software re-engineering with abstraction patterns and rules. Presented at International Symposium on Principles of Software Evolution, 2000

Software reengineering is an essential part of software evolution. Two important issues faced by software reengineering techniques are the time involved and the ability to cope with the scale of software systems. Unless these two issues have been add...

Designing non-speech sounds to support navigation in mobile phone menus. (2000)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
LePlâtre, G., & Brewster, S. A. (2000). Designing non-speech sounds to support navigation in mobile phone menus.

This paper describes a framework for integrating non-speech audio to hierarchical menu structures where the visual feedback is limited. In the first part of this paper, emphasis is put on how to extract sound design principles from actual navigation...

Enhancing the performance of a GA through visualisation. (2000)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Hart, E., & Ross, P. (2000). Enhancing the performance of a GA through visualisation. In Proceedings of GECCO-2000

This article describes a new tool for visualising genetic algorithms, (GAs) which is designed in order to allow the implicit mechanisms
of the GA | i.e. crossover and mutation | to be thoroughly analysed. This allows the user to determine whether th... Read More about Enhancing the performance of a GA through visualisation..

Solving CSPs with evolutionary algorithms using self-adaptive constraint weights. (2000)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Eiben, A. E., Jansen, B., Michalewicz, Z., & Paechter, B. (2000, July). Solving CSPs with evolutionary algorithms using self-adaptive constraint weights. Presented at Genetic and Evolutionary Computation Conference (GECCO-2000)

This paper examines evolutionary algorithms (EAs) extended by various penalty-based approaches to solve constraint satisfaction
problems (CSPs). In some approaches, the penalties are set in advance and they do not change during a run. In other appro... Read More about Solving CSPs with evolutionary algorithms using self-adaptive constraint weights..
