The OISIN framework : ontology interoperability in support of semantic interoperability
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2006)The promise of ontologies is in the sharing of an understanding of a domain that can be communicated between people and application systems (Fensel 2003). However, different ontologies arise due to the natural human ... -
Context-informed semantic interoperation
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2010)A common trend in modern applications is the move towards more mobile, adaptive, customisable software. The evolution of software from static, invariant tools for narrow portions of a task to adaptive, open interaction ... -
Situation-based testing for ubiquitous computing systems
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2011)A common trend in modern applications is the move towards more mobile, adaptive, customisable software. The evolution of software from static, invariant tools for narrow portions of a task to adaptive, open interaction ... -
Trust evaluation for the grid
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2007)This thesis presents models and techniques for automatic evaluation of trust in certification authorities for grid computing infrastructures. The desire for automatic trust evaluation arose out of the need to assess the ... -
A virtual reality-based context simulator for evaluating the effect of uncertainty on Smart Building Applications
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2013)Smart Building Applications (SBAs) adapt their behaviour in response to context information generated by sensors present in the smart building. SBA developers must however account for uncertainty in the accuracy of context ... -
Location aware multimedia narratives
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2008)During the 1980s and the early 1990s, a considerable number of technology and application trends were concerned with location transparency and virtual spaces, overcoming the limitations of the physical space. Artists and ... -
A knowledge-light approach to regression using case-based reasoning
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2007)Case-based reasoning (CBR) is among the most influential paradigms in modern machine learning. It advocates a strategy of storing specific experiences in the form of cases, and solving new ... -
Sobriquet : a personal naming and identity management system
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2012)The Internet in its current form lacks an adequate identity infrastructure. Every rel- evant application must provide its own solution to the problem of authenticating and naming people. Many of these applications share ... -
Distributed shared memory architectures and global performance state estimation
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2006)Invasive and non-invasive methods may be applied to measure and analyse the performance of hardware Distributed Shared Memory (DSM) systems. This thesis presents novel solutions for both methods and discusses the ... -
Linear transformations of semantic spaces for word-sense discrimination and collocation compositionality grading
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2015)Latent Semantic Analysis (LSA) and Word Space are two semantic models derived from the vector space model of distributional semantics that have been used successfully in word-sense disambiguation and discrimination. LSA ... -
Infogrid : a relational approach to grid computing

Identifying translation effects in English natural language text
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2013)With the rise in popularity of applying machine learning methods to problems in textual stylometry, the increased availability of machine-readable corpora and the emerging benefits of research on corpora of translated text ... -
Supporting the tutor in a tutor-tutee adaptive educational system
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2009)Adaptive educational systems have been successful in providing personalised support in a myriad of domains (Melias & Siekmann, 2004). To provide such support, the adaptive educational system builds an internal representation ... -
A model for mobile spatial services
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2009)Mobile context-aware computing is a paradigm in which mobile devices have access to information, known as context, about the situation in which they are being used, and dynamically adapt application behaviour to support ... -
Fibrations of predicates and bicategories of relations
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2014)We reconcile the two different category-theoretic semantics of regular theories in predicate logic. A 2-category of regular fibrations is constructed, as well as a 2-category of regular proarrow equipments, and ... -
Addressing scalability in Mobile Ad hoc Networks
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2012)Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs) are wireless networks comprised of nodes which exhibit varying mobility and availability. Such networks are highly volatile, with network membership changing unpredictably over time. As ... -
Hard real-time communication for mobile ad hoc networks
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2007)The increasing availability of wireless local area networking, particularly ad hoc networking, has lead to the evolution of new application domains, such as inter-vehicle communication and communication between autonomous ... -
A new method to implement Bayesian inference on stochastic differential equation models
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2011)Stochastic differential equations (SDEs) are widely used to model numerous real-life phenomena. However, transition densities of most of the SDE models used in practice are not known, making both likelihood based and ... -
A framework for instrument monitoring on the grid
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2006)Grid computing enables the selection and aggregation of a wide variety of geographically distributed resources as a single unified computing resource, for solving large scale compute and data intensive computing ... -
Lock-free internal binary search trees with memory management
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2012)The current design trend in microprocessor systems is to add more CPU cores thus increasing parallel execution resources. Although this allows many sequential programs to be run in parallel, it can be challenging to use ...
