An efficient adaptive broadcast algorithm for the mesh network (2001)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Al-Dubai, A., & Ould-Khaoua, M. (2001, June). An efficient adaptive broadcast algorithm for the mesh network

Most existing broadcast algorithms proposed for the mesh do not scale well with the network size. Furthermore, they have been mainly based on deterministic routing, which cannot exploit the alternative paths provided by mesh topology to reduce commun...

An agent based Bayesian forecasting model for enhanced network security. (2001)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Pikoulas, J., Buchanan, W. J., Mannion, M., & Triantafyllopoulos, K. (2001, April). An agent based Bayesian forecasting model for enhanced network security. Presented at ECBS 2001

Security has become a major issue in many organisations, but most systems still rely on operating systems, and a user ID and password system to provide user authentication and validation. They also tend to be centralized in their approach which makes... Read More about An agent based Bayesian forecasting model for enhanced network security..

Visualising multiple overlapping classification hierarchies. (2001)
Thesis
Graham, M. Visualising multiple overlapping classification hierarchies. (Thesis). Napier University. http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/id/eprint/2430

The revision or reorganisation of hierarchical data sets can result in many possible hierarchical classifications composed of the same or overlapping data sets existing in parallel with each other. These data sets are difficult for people to handle a... Read More about Visualising multiple overlapping classification hierarchies..

Model-based user interface development environments show promise for improving the productivity of user-interface developers and possibly for improving the quality of developed interfaces. While model-based techniques have previously been applied to... Read More about Teallach: a model-based user interface development environment for object databases.

A Simulation of Interactions Between the Critically Endangered North Atlantic Right Whale Eubalaena glacialis and Shipping using Dynamically Variable Temporal Granularity to Minimise Run Time (2001)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Clyne, H., & Kennedy, J. (2001, December). A Simulation of Interactions Between the Critically Endangered North Atlantic Right Whale Eubalaena glacialis and Shipping using Dynamically Variable Temporal Granularity to Minimise Run Time. Presented at MODSIM 2001 International congress on Modelling and Simulation

Collisions with ships are a major cause of mortality (~35%) for the severely endangered North Atlantic right whale Eubalaena glacialis, currently numbering only around 370 individuals. Although having a great impact upon the chances of survival of th...

Integrating View Schemata Using an Extended Object Definition Language (2001)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Roantree, M., Kennedy, J. B., & Barclay, P. J. (2001, September). Integrating View Schemata Using an Extended Object Definition Language. Presented at 9th International Conference, CoopIS 2001, Trento, Italy

View mechanisms play an important role in restructuring data for users, while maintaining the integrity and autonomy for the underlying database schema. Although far more complex than their relational counterparts, numerous object-oriented view mecha... Read More about Integrating View Schemata Using an Extended Object Definition Language.
