Architecture for Integrated Telecommunication Management Platforms
(1993)Telecommunication management network (TMN) systems represent diverse telecommunication domains with wideranging functionality which frequently employ different technologies and produce isolated solutions. Yet ... -
Roles Considered Harmful in Policy-based Management for Dynamic Organisations
(2007)Using roles for modeling organizations has become common in commercial policy based access control systems and widely accepted in policy-based management research for the grouping of policies. In this paper we argue that ... -
Separation of Distributed Real-Time Embedded Concerns with Theme/UML
(2008)Model-driven engineering (MDE) addresses platform complexity issues by abstracting platformindependent models for subsequent transformation to platform-specific models. This facilitates the design of a single system model ... -
Customisable model transformations based on non-functional requirements
(IEEE, 2008)The Model-to-Model (M2M) transformation stage in a Model-Driven Engineering (MDE) tool chain is used to bridge the large semantic gap between problem-domain abstractions and software artefacts. This transformation ... -
Software needs engineering - a position paper
(IEEE, 2000)When the general press refers to `software' in its headlines, then this is often not to relate a success story, but to expand on yet another `software-risk-turned-problem-story'. For many people, the term `software' evokes ... -
Sharing health-care records over the Internet
(IEEE, 2001)Presents a novel approach to sharing electronic health-care records that leverages the Internet and the World Wide Web, developed as part of two European Commission-funded projects, Synapses and SynEx. The approach provides ... -
The use of Radio Frequency Identification to track samples in bio-repositories
(IEEE, 2008)Bio-repositories are resources for storing biological samples and data to support the discovery of biomarkers, therapeutic targets, and the underlying causes of diseases. The success of this knowledge discovery process ... -
Coping with Diverse Semantic Models when Routing Ubiquitous Computing Information
(2008)Routing of contextual information within ubiquitous computing environments is a key challenge that must be tackled for such environments to be successful. It is accepted that such routing systems need to cope with mobile ... -
Adaptive Semantic Interoperability Strategies for Knowledge Based Networking
(2007)A Knowledge Based Network is a type of ontological content based network. As Knowledge Based Networks scale, semantic interoperability becomes an important issue since larger populations of users result in more heterogeneity ... -
Policy-based Management of Semantic Clustering
(2008)We introduce the concept of a Knowledge-based Network KBN [1] as an extended Content-based Network (CBN), where semantically rich messages co-exist with the more traditional CBN messages format. One of the main advantages ... -

Extending Siena to support more expressive and flexible subscriptions
(2008)This paper defines and discusses the implementation of two novel extensions to the Siena Content-based Network (CBN) to extend it to become a Knowledge-based Network (KBN) thereby increasing the expressiveness and ... -
A Trust-Based Reputation Management System
(Trinty College Dublin. School of Computer Science and Statistics. Computer Science, 2008-11-10)Since its inception in the early 1990s, e-commerce in consumer-to-consumer (C2C) markets has achieved great success, with significant projected growth. For example, the Internet auction provider, eBay, has established ... -
Aspect-Based Properties
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Computer Science and Statistics. Computer Science, 2008-11-10)Component frameworks are said to support contextual composition when crosscutting functionality is bound to component instances by declarative selection of context properties, rather than through direct connections, such ... -
Towards a fluid spectrum market for exclusive usage rights
(IEEE, 2007)This paper focuses on highly fluid markets for trading exclusive spectrum usage-rights. The purpose of the paper is to underline the need for flexible usage-rights policies, as a core facilitator of such markets as well ... -
REACT: REal-time Adaptive Collision Testing, a Interactive Vision approach
(1997)As the demand for high levels of interaction in computer systems increases, so too does the need for real-time, interactive animation. Detecting collisions between geometrically modelled objects remains a major bottleneck in ... -
Extending educational metadata schemas to describe adaptive learning resources
(ACM, 2001)This paper describes a generic technique for representing Adaptive Learning Resources by extending current metadata schemas. The requirement for the work described here has grown out of the necessity to facilitate ... -
Framework and architecture for the management of event-condition-action (ECA) rule-based clinical protocols
(IEEE, 2002)Computer-based support for the incorporation of clinical practice guidelines and protocol into daily practice has recently attracted a lot of research interest within the healthcare informatics area. The aim is not only ...
