    • Managing Peer-to-Peer Live Streaming Applications 

      MEIER, RENE (Springer-Verlag, 2008)
      A number of p2p live streaming systems [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6] and [7] have been proposed in recent years. Typically, the description of these systems focuses on how the live stream is transmitted from its source ...
    • A Hybrid Approach to Context Modeling in Large-Scale Pervasive Computing Environments 

      MEIER, RENE (ACM Press, 2009)
      Pervasive computing aims to unobtrusively embed computer systems into everyday life environments to enrich the user experience without demanding the user?s explicit attention. For pervasive computing to be minimally invasive, ...
    • A Framework for Incremental Construction of Real Global Smart Space Applications 

      MEIER, RENE; CAHILL, VINNY (2009)
      This article describes a standardised way to build context-aware global smart space applications using information that is distributed across independent (legacy, sensor-enabled, and embedded) systems by exploiting the ...
    • Using Context and Behavioral Patterns for Intelligent Traffic Management 

      MEIER, RENE (ACM Press, 2009)
      The integration of information and communications technologies across existing transportation infrastructure, systems and vehicles is fundamental to reducing traffic congestion, to improving driver safety, and to improving ...
    • Rendering fur directly into images 

      PRAZAK, MARTIN (Elsevier, 2010)
      We demonstrate the feasibility of rendering fur directly into existing images, without the need to either painstakingly paint over all pixels, or to supply 3D geometry and lighting. We add fur to objects depicted in images ...
    • Adaptable, Organization-Aware, Service-Oriented Computing 

      STAIKOPOULOS, ATHANASIOS (IEEE Computer Society Press, 2010)
      Service-oriented computing is the new wave emerging from maturing Web services and the adoption of elements from Semantic Web technology. More sophistication, in response to business requirements, does of course not make ...
    • Multidomain IT architectures for next-generation communications service providers [Next-Generation Telco IT Architectures] 

      O'SULLIVAN, DECLAN; BRENNAN, ROB; FEENEY, KEVIN; KEENEY, JOHN (2010)
      Enabling interdomain and end-to-end management are major challenges for IT architectures supporting agile next-generation communications service providers. This requires explicit management of the interdomain relationships ...
    • Perceptual enhancement of two-level volume rendering 

      Dingliana, John (2010)
      We present a system for interactive visualisation of 3D volumetric medical datasets combined with perceptual evaluation of how such visualizations can affect a user's interpretation of scenes and attention. Enhancements ...
    • Collision Detection Hardware Optimised for Ray-Tracers 

      MANZKE, MICHAEL; WOULFE, MUIRIS; DOYLE, MICHAEL (Eurographics Association, 2010)
      Collision detection is the process of determining whether objects in a computer-simulated environment are intersecting. It is vital for a range of diverse applications. However, despite numerous developments, it is often ...
    • Evaluation of a Semantic-Oriented Approach to Cross-Lingual Ontology Mapping 

      BRENNAN, ROB; O'SULLIVAN, DECLAN; FU, BO (2010)
      Most ontology mapping research has focused on the matching of ontologies written in the same natural language, and developing tools and techniques that support this monolingual ontology mapping process. However, as knowledge ...
    • Adaptive Retrieval and Composition of Socio-Semantic Content for Personalised Customer Care 

      WADE, VINCENT PATRICK; STEICHEN, BEN (CEUR-WS.org, 2010)
      The parallel rise of the Semantic and Social Web provides unprecedented possibilities for the development of novel search system architectures. However, many traditional search systems have so far followed a simple ...
    • Fieldwork for requirements: Frameworks for mobile healthcare applications 

      LUZ, SATURNINO; DOHERTY, GAVIN; MC KNIGHT, JOSEPH (Elsevier, 2010)
      Ethnographic approaches to study of work in the field have been widely adopted by HCI researchersas resources for investigation of work settings and for requirements elicitation. Although the value of fieldwork for design ...
    • Seeing is Believing: Body Motion Dominates in Multisensory Conversations 

      O'Sullivan, Carol; Mc Donnell, Rachel (2010)
      In many scenes with human characters, interacting groups are an important factor for maintaining a sense of realism. However, little is known about what makes these characters appear realistic. In this paper, we investigate ...
    • Achieving Diagnosis by Consensus 

      KANE, BRIDGET; LUZ, SATURNINO (2009)
      This paper provides an analysis of the collaborative work conducted at a multidisciplinary medical team meeting, where a patient's definitive diagnosis is agreed, by consensus. The features that distinguish this process ...
    • Supporting Composite Smart Home Services with Semantic Fault Management 

      KEENEY, JOHN; BRENNAN, ROB; LEWIS, DAVID; ETZIONI, ZOHAR (2010)
      The proliferation of smart home technologies providing home users with digital services presents an interoperability problem. This paper asserts that the value of these services can be greatly extended by enabling ...
    • An output sensitive algorithm for computing a maximum independent set of a circle graph 

      GREGG, DAVID; NASH, NICHOLAS CONAL ANTHONY (2010)
      We present an output sensitive algorithm for computing a maximum independent set of an unweighted circle graph. Our algorithm requires O(nmin{d,?}) time at worst, for an n vertex circle graph where ? is the independence ...
    • Supporting Flexibility and Awareness in Localisation Workflows 

      DOHERTY, GAVIN; FEENEY, KEVIN CHEKOV; LEWIS, DAVID; LUZ, SATURNINO (2009)
      A key strategy for supporting users in distributed work systems is to help them maintain awareness of the state of the work system and of the work being done by others. At the same time, many knowledge intensive industries ...
    • Applying Digital Content Management to Support Localisation
