  • Non-traditional statistical process control for commercial irradiation
    Donovan, J; Murphy, Eamonn (Irish Statistical Association, 2007)
    Commercial irradiation typically involves applying electron beam or gamma radiation to a product with a view to sterilizing the product and killing any bacteria present. This is extremely important in the medical ...
  • Northern Ireland Software Industry Survey
    Mc Caffery, Fergal; Wilkie, F.G.; McFall, Donald (2004)
    This presentation discusses statistical findings obtained from a survey of the state of software development practices within Northern Ireland (NI). The survey was developed and conducted by staff from the Centre for ...
  • A novel approach to electronic nose-head design, using a copper thin film electrode patterning technique
    Arshak, Khalil; Cunniffe, Colm; Moore, Edward G.; Cavanagh, Leon M.; Harris, John A. (IEEE Computer Society, 2005)
    Presented in this paper is a process for manufacturing copper electrode patterns on alumina substrates using thin film deposition, spin coating and printed circuit board (PCB) etching techniques. The process was used for ...
  • A novel operational decision making method for SMES.
    Lynch, Andrew (University of Limerick, 2011)
    Small to Medium Enterprise (SME) performance is a function of the composite of the decision-making processes within the enterprise. Owner managers are conscious of the gap in their decision-making efficacy and acknowledge ...
  • A novel pole–zero compensation scheme using unbalanced differential pairs
    Ryan, Adrian P.; McCarthy, Oliver (IEEE Computer Society, 2004)
    The main problem in extending continuous-time filtering to higher frequencies is the sensitivity of high-frequency filters to analog integrator nonidealities such as finite dc gain and parasitic poles. The use of a ...
  • Numerical modelling of cooling crystallisation: process kinetics to optimisation
    Mitchell, Niall A (University of Limerick, 2012)
    The research detailed in this dissertation expands the field of knowledge in the area of numerical modelling of cooling crystallisation processes in stirred vessels. The paracetamol and ethanol solution system was chosen ...
  • Objects, Components and the Virtual Enterprise
    Dobson, Simon; Nixon, Paddy (Trinity College Dublin, Dept. of Computer Science, 1999)
    We are currently witnessing a convergence of several threads of technology and business imperatives. The idea of a virtual enterprise (VE) – a business built from both organizationally and geographically distributed units ...
  • Observation of open source programmers information seeking
    Sharif, Khaironi Yatim; Buckley, Jim (IEEE Computer Society, 2009)
    Several authors have proposed information seeking as an appropriate perspective for studying software evolution, and have characterized information seeking empirically in commercial software evolution settings. However, ...
  • Of deadlocks and peopleware-collaborative work practices in global software development
    Avram, Gabriela (IEEE Computer Society, 2007)
    As part of a research project dedicated to the Social Organizational and Cultural Aspects of Global Software Development, the author has chosen to focus on collaborative work practices and knowledge management aspects of ...
  • On bivariate survival regression models
    Lynch, Joseph; MacKenzie, Gilbert (IWSM, 2011)
    We compare and contrast the properties of the bivariate Weibull and GTDL regression survival models. An analytic expression for the correlation between times is derived for the Weibull model and a modified Kullback-Lei ...
  • On computing minimal equivalent subformulas
    Belov, Anton; Janota, Mikolas; Lynce, Inês; Marques-Silva, Joao (Springer, 2012)
    A propositional formula in Conjunctive Normal Form (CNF) may contain redundant clauses | clauses whose removal from the for- mula does not a ect the set of its models. Identi cation of redundant clauses is important ...
  • On efficient computation of variable MUSes
    Belov, Anton; Ivrii, Alexander; Matsliah, Arie; Marques-Silva, Joao (Springer-Verlag, 2012)
    In this paper we address the following problem: given an unsatisfiable CNF formula F, find a minimal subset of variables of F that constitutes the set of variables in some unsatisfiable core of F. This problem, known as ...
  • On event-based middleware for location-aware mobile applications
    Meier, Rene; Cahill, Vinny (IEEE Computer Society, 2010)
    As mobile applications become more widespread, programming paradigms and middleware architectures designed to support their development are becoming increasingly important. The event-based programming paradigm is a strong ...
  • On heuristic solutions to the simple offset assignment problem in address-code optimization
    Shokry, Hesham; El-Boghdadi, Hatem M. (Association for Computing Machinery, 2011)
    The increasing demand for more functionality in embedded systems applications nowadays requires efficient generation of compact code for embedded DSP processors. Because such processors have highly irregular datapaths, ...
  • On models and standards of processes in SE, SwE and IT&S disciplines:toward a comparative framework using the systems approach
    Mora, Manuel; Gelman, Ovsei; O'Connor, Rory V.; Jorge Macias, Francisco Alvarez (2007)
    The general aim of Systems Engineering (SE) and Software Engineering (SwE) is the definition, development and deployment of large-scale cost-effective and trustworthy integrated systems and software-intensive systems ...
  • On practical service-based computing in distributed embedded automotive systems
    Shokry, Hesham; Hinchey, Mike (IEEE Computer Society, 2009)
    The automotive industry is, like several other domains, a source of both challenging problems and innovative technologies of various kinds. One interesting phenomenon in this domain is the extensive interdependencies between ...
  • On resource allocation strategies in managed peer-assisted VOD streaming systems
    Rohmer, Thibaud; Nafaa, Abdelhamid; Nakib, Amir (IEEE Computer Society, 2012)
    Strong with large pools of set-top-boxes (STB) already deployed and connected to high-capacity networks, broadband operators sit on a major opportunity to introduce P2P-based VOD streaming architectures that scales up ...
  • On scalability of particular optimisation
    Piccand, Sebastien; O'Neill, Michael; Walker, Jacqueline (IEEE Computer Society, 2008)
  • On scoping stakeholders and artifacts in software process
    Bai, Xu; Huang, LiGuo; Zhang, He (Springer-Verlag, 2010)
    Stakeholder and artifact are regarded as two important elements in software engineering processes, but they are rarely systematically investigated in software process modeling and simulation. Inspired by the Workshop of ...
  • On searching relevant studies in software engineering
    Zhang, He; Ali Babar, Muhammad (British Informatics Society Ltd., 2010)
    BACKGROUND: Systematic Literature Review (SLR) has become an important research methodology in software engineering since 2004. One critical step in applying this methodology is to design and execute appropriate and effective ...
