  • The gamification of SPICE
    Dorling, Alec; Mc Caffery, Fergal (Springer, 2012)
    Abstract. Process Improvement has been used for decades as a means to become better and more efficient. Whilst many organizations have used considerable resources for process improvement, investments in process improvement ...
  • Gamma radiation dosimetry using Tellurium Dioxide thin film structures
    Arshak, Khalil; Korostynska, Olga (IEEE Computer Society, 2002)
    Thin films of Tellurium dioxide (TeO2) were investigated for γ-radiation dosimetry purposes. Samples were fabricated using thin film vapour deposition technique. Thin films of Te02 were exposed to a 60Co γ-radiation source ...
  • Gamma radiation nose system based on In2O3/SiO thick film PN-junctions
    Arshak, Khalil; Korostynska, Olga; Szumilas, L.; Harris, John A.; Clifford, S.A. (IEEE Computer Society, 2004)
    In2O3 and SiO mixtures into thick film pn-junctions form were investigated for γ-radiation dosimetry purposes. Results show that the current is increased with the increase in radiation dose to a certain level, exceeding ...
  • Gamma radiation sensing using ZnO and SnO2 thick film
    Arshak, Khalil; Korostynska, Olga; Jafer, Essa; Arshak, Arousian; Morris, Deirdre; Gill, Edric I. (IEEE Computer Society, 2006)
    A novel cost-effective real-time gamma radiation monitoring system based on metal oxide thick films was designed and tested. The changes in capacitances of ZnO and SnO2 thick film capacitors with interdigitated ...
  • Generalised smoothing in functional data analysis
    Carey, Michelle (University of Limericik, 2012)
    The incorporation of model-based penalties in a penalised regression frame- work (generalised smoothing) has been the subject of many publications, most notably: Cao and Ramsay (2007); Heckman and Ramsay (2000); Ramsay ...
  • Geometry in architecture
    O'Shaughnessy, Sinead (School of Architecture, University of Limerick, 2011)
    Can a harmony be achieved between the social and physical aspects of a design when designing through geometry and, if so, how is this to be accomplished? The problem with this design method is that it appears to emphasise ...
  • Getting at ephemeral flaws
    Lopez, Tamara; Petre, Marian; Nuseibeh, Bashar (IEEE Computer Society, 2012)
    Software rarely works as intended when it is initially written. Things go wrong, and developers are commonly understood to form theories and strategies to deal with them. Much of this knowledge relates to ephemeral flaws ...
  • Globalizing software development in the local classroom
    Richardson, Ita; Moore, Sarah; Paulish, Daniel; Casey, Valentine; Zage, Dolores (IEEE Computer Society, 2007)
    Given the requirement for software engineering graduates to operate in Global Software Development (GSD) environments, educators need to develop teaching methods to enhance and instill GSD knowledge in their students. In ...
  • Global software development: a multiple-case study of the realisation of the benefits
    Ó Conchúir, Eoin (University of Limerick, Department of Computer Science & Information Systems, 2010)
    Global software development (GSD) encompasses all software development where people located in different parts of the world are working together to produce software. Software development in itself is a complex process. GSD ...
  • Global software development and collaboration : barriers and solutions
    Noll, John; Beecham, Sarah; Richardson, Ita (Association for Computing Machinery, 2010)
    While organisations recognise the advantages offered by global software development, there are many socio-technical barriers that affect successful collaboration in this inter-cultural environment. In this paper we present ...
  • Global software development challenges: a case study on temporal,geographical and socio-cultural distance.
    Holmstrom Olsson, Helena; Ó Conchúir, Eoin; Agerfalk, Par J.; Fitzgerald, Brian (IEEE Computer Society, 2006)
    Global software development (GSD) is a phenomenon that is receiving considerable interest from companies all over the world. In GSD, stakeholders from different national and organizational cultures are involved in developing ...
  • Global Software Development - Coordination and project management strategies from a vendor perspective
    Deshpande, Sadhana; Beecham, Sarah; Richardson, Ita (Springer, 2011)
    Global software development (GSD) is often impeded by global distance which may be geographical, cultural, temporal or linguistic. When compared to a collocated setting, specific methods are required to coordinate a range ...
  • Gold tip formation on perpendicularly aligned semiconductor nanorod assemblies
    O'Sullivan, Catriona; Ahmed, Shafaat; Ryan, Kevin M. (Royal Society of Chemistry, 2008)
    A facile spin cast process is used for the instantaneous asymmetric formation of gold tips on perpendicularly aligned CdS nanorod superlattices. Tip size varies as a function of precursor solution concentration and growth ...
  • A gossip protocol to support service discovery with heterogeneous ontologies in MANETs
    Nedos, Andronikos; Singh, Kulpreet; Cunningham, Raymond; Clarke, Siobhán (IEEE Computer Society, 2007)
    Service discovery in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) is an integral part for collective application interoperability. The discovery process must cope not only with transient communication but also with an environment where ...
  • A graph-based definition of distillation
    Hamilton, Geoff W.; Mendel-Gleason, Gavin E. (Meta2010, 2010)
    In this paper, we give a graph-based definition of the distillation transformation algorithm. This definition is made within a similar framework to the positive supercompilation algorithm, thus allowing for a more in-depth ...
  • Graph-based implicit knowledge discovery from architecture change logs
    Ahmad, Aakash; Jamshidi, Pooyan; Arshad, Muteer; Pahl, Claus (Association for Computing Machinery, 2012)
    Service architectures continuously evolve as a consequence of frequent business and technical change cycles. Architec- ture change log data represents a source of evolution-centric information in terms of intent, scope ...
  • Graph-based pattern identification from architecture change logs
    Ahmad, Aakash; Jamshidi, Pooyan; Pahl, Claus (Springer, 2012)
    Service-based architectures have become commonplace, creating the need to address their systematic maintenance and evolution. We investigate architecture change representation, primarily focusing on the identification ...
  • Graphemes : self-organizing shape-based clustered structures for network visualisations
    Shannon, Ross; Quigley, Aaron; Nixon, Paddy (Association for Computing Machinery, 2010)
    Network visualisations use clustering approaches to simplify the presentation of complex graph structures. We present a novel application of clustering algorithms, which controls the visual arrangement of the vertices in ...
  • Grounding through operationalization: constructing tangible theory in IS research
    Agerfalk, Par J. (2004)
