Workflow partitioning and deployment on the cloud using Orchestra
(IEEE, 2014-12-08) - Conference item,
Orchestrating service-oriented workflows is typically based on a design model that routes both data and control through a single point - the centralised workflow engine. This causes scalability problems that include the ...
Interpreting the neural code with formal concept analysis
(Curran Associates, Inc., 2009) - Conference item,
We propose a novel application of Formal Concept Analysis (FCA) to neural decoding: instead of just trying to figure out which stimulus was presented, we demonstrate how to explore the semantic relationships in the neural ...
Using situation lattices in sensor analysis
(IEEE Computer Society, 2009-03) - Conference item,
Highly sensorised systems present two parallel challenges: how to design a sensor suite that can efficiently and cost-effectively support the needs of given services; and to extract the semantically relevant interpretations, ...
Virtual worlds, real traffic : interaction and adaptation
(ACM, 2010) - Conference item,
Metaverses such as Second Life (SL) are a relatively new type of Internet application. Their functionality is similar to online 3D games but differs in that users are able to construct the environment their avatars inhabit ...
Towards verifying correctness of wireless sensor network applications using Insense and Spin
(Springer, 2009) - Conference item,
The design and implementation of wireless sensor network applications often require domain experts, who may lack expertise in software engineering, to produce resource-constrained, concurrent, real-time software without ...
Mongoose : throughput redistributing virtual world
(IEEE, 2012-07-30) - Conference item,
Metaverses provide a framework for developing distributed 3D Internet applications where users gain presence through the proxy of an avatar. They offer much of the engagement of on line 3D games but support heterogeneous ...
Managing humanitarian emergencies : Teaching and learning with a virtual humanitarian disaster tool
(SciTePress, 2012) - Conference item,
The importance of specialist intervention in the form of humanitarian aid from governments, NGOs and other aid agencies during a humanitarian emergency cannot be over-emphasised. Humanitarian aid is the assistance provided ...
Near-infrared spectroscopy study of tourniquet-induced forearm ischaemia in patients with coronary artery disease
(SPIE, 2001-01) - Conference item,
Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (NIR) can be employed to monitor local changes in haemodynamics and oxygenation of human tissues. A preliminary study has been performed in order to evaluate the NIRS transmittance response to ...
Virtual machines for virtual worlds
(SciTePress, 2012) - Conference item,
Multi User Virtual Worlds provide a simulated immersive 3D environment that is similar to the real world. Popular examples include Second Life and OpenSim. The multi-user nature of these simulations means that there are ...
Requirements for educational support tools in Virtual Worlds
(INSTICC-Institute for Systems and Technologies of Information, Control and Communication, 2012-04-18) - Conference item,
Virtual Worlds have been used for online gaming, socialising, business advertising and education. As the educational uses become more sophisticated from early information advertising and teaching resources to simulated ...
