Experiments in Multicore and Distributed Parallel Processing using JCSP (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kerridge, J. (2011, June). Experiments in Multicore and Distributed Parallel Processing using JCSP. Presented at 33rd Communicating Process Architecture (CPA) Conference, University of Limerick, Ireland

It is currently very difficult to purchase any form of computer system be it, notebook, laptop, desktop server or high performance computing system that does not contain a multicore processor. Yet the designers of applications, in general, have very... Read More about Experiments in Multicore and Distributed Parallel Processing using JCSP.

Performance of the distributed CPA protocol and architecture on traditional networks. (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Chalmers, K. (2011, June). Performance of the distributed CPA protocol and architecture on traditional networks. Presented at 33rd Communicating Process Architecture (CPA) conference

Performance of communication mechanisms is very important in distributed systems frameworks, especially when the aim is to provide a particular type of behavior across a network. In this paper, performance measurements of the distributed Communicatin... Read More about Performance of the distributed CPA protocol and architecture on traditional networks..

Customer journey mapping (2011)
Report
Cruickshank, P. (2011). Customer journey mapping

Public services need to adapt to the needs of their customers, the citizens. Often new e-services are technology-initiated, but Smart Cities start with the user. This document places the customer journey mapping (CJM) process in the context of custom... Read More about Customer journey mapping.

Co-design in Smart Cities (2011)
Report
Cruickshank, P., & Deakin, M. (2011). Co-design in Smart Cities

This report brings together the different experiences and perspectives of Smart Cities partners who have used different forms of co-design. These are then linked to the findings from an evaluation of co-design in Smart Cities that was carried out by... Read More about Co-design in Smart Cities.

An Integrated Cloud-based Healthcare Infrastructure. (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Ekonomou, E., Fan, L., Buchanan, W. J., & Thuemmler, C. (2011, November). An Integrated Cloud-based Healthcare Infrastructure

We present a cloud-based healthcare system that integrates a formal care system (DACAR) with an informal care system (Microsoft HealthVault). The system provides high levels of security and privacy within a cloud environment, enabling sharing of both... Read More about An Integrated Cloud-based Healthcare Infrastructure..

Metamaterial-based Sensor Design Working in Infrared Frequency Range (2011)
Journal Article
La Spada, L., Bilotti, F., & Vegni, L. (2011). Metamaterial-based Sensor Design Working in Infrared Frequency Range. Progress in electromagnetics research B: PIER B, 34, 205-223. https://doi.org/10.2528/pierb11060303

In this paper, we propose the design of high sensitivity and selectivity metamaterial-based biosensors operating in the THz regime. The proposed sensors consist of planar array of resonant metallic structures, whose frequency response is modified thr...

HUWY (Hub Websites for Youth Participation) was an eParticipation Preparatory Action project, which piloted a distributed (networked) discussion. The pilot ran in Estonia, Germany, Ireland and the UK. HUWY aimed to find good ways to support groups of... Read More about HUWY D7.4 Results.

Evaluating an emergent behaviour algorithm in JCSP for energy conservation in lighting systems. (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kosek, A., Syed, A., & Kerridge, J. (2011, June). Evaluating an emergent behaviour algorithm in JCSP for energy conservation in lighting systems. Presented at 33rd Communicating Process Architecture (CPA) conference

Since the invention of the light bulb, artificial light is accompanying people all around the world every day and night. As the light bulb itself evolved a lot through years, light control systems are still switch-based and require users to make most...
