Realising the potential of technology tools: expecting the unexpected. (2008)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Hall, H. (2008). Realising the potential of technology tools: expecting the unexpected. In C. Turner (Ed.), Proceedings of Online Information 2008 (23-25)

With reference to the domain of sociotechnical studies, this paper establishes reasons why expectations of technology implementations are often misguided. Examples from a number of scenarios drawn from academic research demonstrate the phenomena of "... Read More about Realising the potential of technology tools: expecting the unexpected..

Mobile agents and processes using communicating process architectures. (2008)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kerridge, J., Haschke, J., & Chalmers, K. (2008, September). Mobile agents and processes using communicating process architectures. Presented at 31st Communicating Process Architectures 2008

The mobile agent concept has been developed over a number of years and is widely accepted as one way of solving problems that require the achievement of a goal that cannot be serviced at a specific node in a network. The concept of a mobile process i... Read More about Mobile agents and processes using communicating process architectures..

Semantics-Based Component Repository: State of Arts and a Calculation Rating Factor-based Framework. (2008)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Li, C., Liu, X., & Kennedy, J. (2008, July). Semantics-Based Component Repository: State of Arts and a Calculation Rating Factor-based Framework. Presented at COMPSAC '08. 32nd Annual IEEE International Computer Software and Applications, 2008

Nowadays, Component-Based Development (CBD) has been widely used in software engineering. As a core activity in the CBD process, component retrieval has attracted extensive research attention. Despite the research efforts so far, one major problem st... Read More about Semantics-Based Component Repository: State of Arts and a Calculation Rating Factor-based Framework..

A Sustainable Service-Oriented B2C Framework for Small Businesses (2008)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Liu, X., & Ye, H. (2008, December). A Sustainable Service-Oriented B2C Framework for Small Businesses. Presented at 2008 IEEE International Symposium on Service-Oriented System Engineering, Jhongli, Taiwan

Electronic commerce is fast expanding all over the world. Currently most B2C (business to customer) electronic commerce focuses on retailing and other online services, such as online banking. Compared with large-scale enterprises and organizations, s... Read More about A Sustainable Service-Oriented B2C Framework for Small Businesses.
