Teaching within the CoderDojo Movement: An Exploration of Mentors' Teaching Practices
(IEEE, 2020)This work in progress reports on the initial findings of a significant study that aims to explore the evolution of programming teaching practice in non-formal, volunteer-led clubs where young people are ... -
Developing a Concept Inventory for Computer Science 2: What should it focus on and what makes it challenging?
(IEEE, 2020)This Work-In-Progress Research Paper reports on an international study that is being undertaken in order to develop a validated concept inventory for the second introductory computer science course (CS2). ... -
Recognising Actions for Instructional Training using Pose Information: A Comparative Evaluation.
(2019)Humans perform many complex tasks involving the manipulation of multiple objects. Recognition of the constituent actions of these tasks can be used to drive instructional training systems. The identities and poses of the ... -
Enhancing Network Performance and Consumer Experience in Named Data Networking (NDN)
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Computer Science & Statistics. Discipline of Computer Science, 2020)Named Data Networking (NDN) is an Information-Centric Networking (ICN) architecture proposed as an alternative to the current Internet infrastructure. Using the publish-subscribe paradigm and a standardised naming scheme, ... -
?Just-in-time? generation of datasets by considering structured representations of given consent for GDPR compliance
(2020)Data processing is increasingly becoming the subject of various policies and regulations, such as the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) that came into effect in May 2018. One important aspect of GDPR is ... -
Scientific publication: policy on open access (European Research Advisory Board Final Report)
(EURAB, 2006)EURAB was invited by the Commission to examine the issue of scientific publication with particular reference to policy recommendations regarding open access for Framework Programme 7 (FP7). A clear policy at European ... -
The Virtual DBA: Virtualizing Passive Optical Networks to Enable Multi-Service Operation in True Multi-Tenant Environments
(2020)This paper presents the concept of virtual dynamic bandwidth allocation (DBA), a method we propose to virtualize upstream capacity scheduling in passive optical networks (PONs), which provides multiple independent virtual ... -
3-stage Hierarchical Quality of Service for Multi-tenant Passive Optical Network
(2019)Passive Optical Networks (PONs) are an economically efficient means of providing high bandwidth services to end users. This is because PONs are multi-point shared access medium, where end-points can share the cost ... -
Joint Dynamic Bandwidth and Queue Management for Upstream SLA-Oriented QoS in Multi-Tenant, Multi-Service PONs
(2020)We devise a PON upstream scheduler that jointly manages intra-ONT and inter-ONT capacity across VNOs. This provides balancing between throughput and delay, providing SLA-oriented QoS supporting low latency 5G applications ... -
A Performance Analysis of Supervised Learning Classifiers for QoT Estimation in ROADM-based Networks
(2019)Machine learning techniques for optimization purposes in the optical domain have been reviewed extensively in recent years. While several studies are pointing in the right direction towards building ... -
Evolution of access network sharing towards software based passive optical network: can virtual OLTs run at full line rate?
(2020)This paper summarises how access network sharing has evolved from physical layer unbundling to fully virtualised architectures. We address one of the crucial question in access network virtualisation: whether fully virtualised ... -
Virtualised EAST-WEST PON Architecture Supporting Low-Latency communication for Mobile Functional-Split Based on Multi-Access Edge Computing
(2020)Ultralow latency end-to-end communication with high reliability is one of the most important requirements in 5G networks to support latency-critical applications. A recent approach toward this target is to deploy edge ... -
A Silicon Photonic Switching Platform for Flexible Converged Centralized-Radio Access Networking
(2020)Unprecedented levels of device connectivity and the emergence of futuristic digital services are driving fundamental changes to underlying fixed and wireless data transport networks. Projected ... -
Sharing Distributed and Heterogeneous Resources toward End-to-End 5G networks: A Comprehensive Survey and a Taxonomy
(2020)Regardless of the context to which it is applied,sharing resources is well-recognized for its considerable benefits.Since 5G networks will be service-oriented, on-demand, and highly heterogeneous, it is ... -
Issues Relating to Trust in Care Agents for the Elderly
(ACM, 2019-08-22)There is increasing academic interest in and commercial development of care agents to assist with the care of the elderly in the home. This paper defines some of the under-explored questions and issues relating to trust. ... -
What makes a good conversation? Challenges in designing truly conversational agents
(ACM, 2019-05)Conversational agents promise conversational interaction but fail to deliver. Efforts often emulate functional rules from human speech, without considering key characteristics that conversation must encapsulate. Given its ... -
ADELE: Evaluating and Benchmarking an Artificial Conversational Care Agent
(http://casforhealth.org, 2020-04-26)This paper provides an overview of a planned experiment to evaluate the latest iteration of ADELE, an artificial conversational agent to aid in the care of the elderly. It is being evaluated against an earlier iteration ... -
The Impact of Increasing and Decreasing the Professionalism of News Webpage Aesthetics on the Perception of Bias in News Articles
(Springer, 2020-07-19)This paper reports further results from a large study examining the impact of the visual aesthetics of news websites on the perception of bias in news articles. It focuses on the characteristic of professionalism, which ... -
A Classification of Biases Relating to the Production, Dissemination and Consumption of News
(http://critical-media.org/, 2020-04-25)There are many difficulties in studying bias at the production, dissemination, or consumption stages of the news pipeline. These include the difficulty of identifying high quality empirical research, the lack of agreed ... -
