    • Ontology Mapping Representations: a Pragmatic Evaluation 

      BRENNAN, ROB; THOMAS, HENDRIK; O'SULLIVAN, DECLAN (Knowledge Systems Institute Graduate School, 2009)
      A common approach to mitigate the effects of ontology heterogeneity is to discover and express the specific corre-spondences (mappings) between different ontologies. An open research question is: how should such ontology ...

      KEENEY, JOHN; FEENEY, KEVIN CHEKOV; LEWIS, DAVID; ETZIONI, ZOHAR (2009)
      Developments in Natural Language Processing technologies promise a variety of benefits to the localization industry, both in its current form in performing bulk enterprise-based localization and in the future in ...

    • Knowledge Based Networking 

      KEENEY, JOHN; LEWIS, DAVID; O'SULLIVAN, DECLAN; JONES, DOMINIC HUGH; SONG, GUO (IGI Global, 2009)
      Knowledge-Based Networking, which is built on-top of Content-based Networking (CBN), involves the forwarding of events across a network of brokers based on subscription filters applied to some semantics of the data and ...

    • An Automatically Composable OWL Reasoner for Resource Constrained Devices 

      BRENNAN, ROB; KEENEY, JOHN; O'SULLIVAN, DECLAN (IEEE, 2009)
      Centralized semantic sensor network systems gradually show performance degradation as the scale of the sensor network increases. Thus systems based on distributed approaches with local, autonomous management features ...

    • Policy-based Integration of Multi-Provider Digital Home Services 

      BRENNAN, ROB; KEENEY, JOHN; FEENEY, KEVIN CHEKOV; LEWIS, DAVID; O'SULLIVAN, DECLAN; ETZIONI, ZOHAR (2009)
      The digital home is both the nexus of a new wave of user-centric service integration and the front line of competition between device vendors, connectivity providers, and added-value service providers. Vertical integration ...

    • Using XML to network distributed analytical instruments: back to the future? 

      GRIMSON, JANE BARCLAY (Healthcare Informatics Society of Ireland, Cumann Riomheolais Slainte, 1999)
      There has been a paradigm shift in medical informatics standards in recent years from the message-oriented approach to a more distributed systems approach. However, despite all the early promise of distributed applications, ...

    • Identifying an appropriate pedagogy for virtual worlds: A Communal Constructivism case study 

      Savage, Timothy; Girvan, Carina (2010)
      As increasing numbers of educators explore the use of virtual worlds for education, there is a need to consider which pedagogical approaches can provide an opportunity to do more than recreate the traditional classroom by ...

    • Context-Aware Trails 

      CLARKE, SIOBHAN (2004)
      he emergence of converged mobile devices with a wide range of computing, communications, entertainment, and sensing capabilities represents a major step in the evolution of wireless computing. Such devices increasingly ...

    • Issues in Internetworking Wireless Data Networks for Mobile Computing 

      HAAHR, MADS (IEEE, 1995)
      There are many issues specijk to the area of mobile computing which need to be addressed This paper will discuss the particular issues of mobile hosts, network management and security.

    • Real + virtual = clever: thoughts on programming smart environments 

      CAHILL, VINNY; HAAHR, MADS (1999)
      Event-based communications has been used successfully in many application domains, one of which is virtual environments. Events are a useful concept in this context because they embody the notion of something happening ...

    • Lessness:Randomness, Consciousness and Meaning 

      HAAHR, MADS (Curtin University of Technology, 2002)
      Lessness is a prose piece by Samuel Beckett in which he used random permutation to order sentences. Like interactive artworks, the piece is experienced as a process that depends upon the participant?s attempts to ...

    • Analysis of the joint kinematics of the 5 iron golf swing 

      HAAHR, MADS (2009)
      The purpose of this study was to identify the performance determining factors of the 5-iron golf swing. Joint kinematics were obtained from thirty male golfers using a twelve camera motion analysis system. Participants ...

    • Creating an Adaptive Network of Hubs Using Schelling's Model 

      HAAHR, MADS; SINGH, ATUL (2005)
      Thomas Schelling?s model suggests an explanation for the existence of segregated neighborhoods in America. This paper presents a study on utilizing Schelling?s model to create an adaptive network of hubs in an unstructured ...

    • Personalised, Collaborative Spam Filtering 

      HAAHR, MADS (Distributed Systems Group, 2004)
      The state of the art sees content-based filters tending towards collaborative filters, whereby email is filtered at the MTA with users feeding information back about false positives and negatives. While this improves the ...
