Effects of social structure on establishing lexical conventions in a computational model of task-oriented primeval dialogue
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2013)In the field of language evolution, the only way of obtaining empirical data for most of its parts is with the help of computational models and simulations. As a consequence, a large number of different modelling approaches ... -
Trust as a form of defeasible reasoning
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2008)Computational models of Trust have recently emerged as a way to exploit the human notion of trust in open and collaborative environments. This thesis provides a novel computational model of trust based on defeasible ... -
Clonal Plasticity: A Method for Decentralized Adaptation in Multi-agent Systems
(2016)This paper introduces a new plant-inspired mechanism for decentralized adaptation, called clonal plasticity, which does not make use of the MAPE loop. The mechanism acts on every individual in a population and does not ... -
UTPCalc - A calculator for UTP Predicates
(Springer International Publishing, 2017) -
WaterCom: Connecting research configurations with practical deployments: A multilevel, multipurpose underwater communications test platform
(ACM, 2016)This paper describes the ongoing evolution of the Water-Com framework developed as part of the NSF funded Ocean-TUNE CRI project. A particular challenge for connecting global researchers and the public with remote, autonomous ... -
Authentication and accounting for network services in next-generation mobile networks
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2005)Mobile communications technologies are in a constant state of flux. They have evolved from simple one-way radio communications systems, to today’s third-generation networks that support digital signaling and multimedia ... -
Parasitic routing : using social network analysis for routing in disconnecting delay-tolerant MANETs
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2007)Message delivery in sparse Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs) is difficult due to the fact that the network graph is rarely (if ever) connected. As a consequence, a full end-to-end path between nodes may not exist at any given ... -
Personalised eLearning development environments
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2006)Personalised eLearning is seen as a key element for next generation educational programmes [DFES, 2005]. The goal of personalised eLearning is to support eLearning content, activities and collaboration, adapted to the ... -
Adaptable design for talk-based mental health interventions
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2008)The cost to society of mental illness is substantial. This thesis proposes and provides practical illustration of an adaptable approach to the design of technology for talk-based mental health interventions. The approach ... -
Neural network ensembles for financial time-series prediction and risk management
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2000)Neural Network Ensembles for Financial Time-Series Prediction and Risk Management. Recently, neural networks have become popular tools for modelling financial markets. Much of this popularity can be attributed to the fact ... -
Detecting restriction class correspondences in Linked Open Data
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2014)The Linked Open Data (LOD) project has made a broad range of knowledge available on the World Wide Web as open datasets, using a common format and linked in such a manner that it is a simple task to explore and integrate ... -
Accelerated computing on computational grid infrastructures
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2016)Grid infrastructures have been central to some of the largest computationally intensive scientific investigations in recent times. As the complexity of computational simulations and models increases, the dependency on ... -
A generic framework for grid-enabled visualisation and computational steering, and its characterisation
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2011)This thesis presents a generic framework for grid-enabled visualisation and computational steering that is amenable to characterisation using mathematical models based on benchmarked resources. The models enable designers, ... -
Formal polytypic programs and proofs
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2010)Polytypic or datatype-generic programming is a form of generic programming where we abstract over the shape of datatypes: we define functions by induction over the structure of datatypes. In this thesis we show how to ... -
OM2R : semantic documentation of ontology mapping lifecycle to support retrieval and reuse of ontology mappings
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2014)Ontology mappings are of critical importance for the Linked Data and the Semantic Web communities as they can help to mitigate the effects of heterogeneities, which are a major obstacle to the promise of interoperability ... -
Automatic reasoner composition and selection
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2011)The development of OWL and OWL reasoning technologies has enabled them to be used for knowledge base (KB) modelling and/or intelligent data processing in applications of various areas. However the computation and ...
