Designing environmental sustainability into new products using personas at the early concept stage of the design process.

Carey, Margaret (University of Limerick, 2011)

Design for sustainability is a complex and ever changing design process. With an ever increasing need to design and manufacture sustainable products there are demands put on product and industrial designers to ensure that ...
Designing for public interaction: extending, applying and reflecting on the principles of 'assembly'

McLoughlin, Marc (University of Limerick, 2011)

This thesis explores a practical approach to the design and development of interactive technologies in public spaces derived from the concept of “Assembly”. Current research is lacking frameworks that can not only evaluate, ...
Designing interactive technology (IT) for/with children with T1DM: exploring methods, techniques and tools facilitating participatory approach

Tsvyatkova, Damyanka (University of Limerick, 2016)

The central question of this thesis is: How to design Interactive Technology (IT) for/with children with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM) and their parents/guardians? To address this question, this research has two main ...
Designing MAS organisation through an integrated MDA/Ontology approach

Okouya, Daniel; Penserini, Loris; Saudrais, Sebastien; Staikopoulos, Athanasios; Dignum, Virginia; Clarke, Siobhán (2008)

The increasing complexity of distributed applications, soft- ware services that can be dynamically deployed, adjusted and composed, paves the way for new challenges in software and service engineering. This paper describes ...
Designing mobile aspect-oriented software architectures with ambients

Ali, Nour; Ramos, Isidro (IGI Global, 2012)

This chapter focuses on designing software architectures of mobile applications using an Aspect-Oriented Architecture Description Language (AOADL). The AOADL follows an approach called Ambient-PRISMA which enables designers ...
The detailed experience

Dawson, Philip (School of Architecture, University of Limerick, 2012)

The aim of this thesis was to explore how one can create a more em-bodied experience of a landscape. This subject is explored in an essay and architectural project. The essay examines how to create an em-bodied experience. ...
Detecting selective sweeps using hidden markov models (HMMs)

Sheikhi, Ali; Ramsey, David; MacKenzie, Gilbert (2011)

A selective sweep occurs when a positive mutation spreads through a population. It causes a reduction in variation among the nucleotides in the neighbourhood of the mutation. Whether or not a selective sweep has occurred can ...
Detection of caseinophosphopeptides in the distal ileostomy fluid of human subjects

Meisel, Hans; Bernard, H; Fairweather-Tait, S; Fitzgerald, Richard J.; Hartmann, R; Lane, C.N.; McDonagh, David; Teucher, B; Wal, J.M. (Cambridge University Press, 2003)

Caseinophosphopeptides (CPP) were detected for the first time in ileostomy fluid, collected at 2 h intervals for 10 h post milk and CPP ingestion, from human volunteers with an ileostomy. The level of CPP present in ileostomy ...
Detection of raistonia pickettii bacteria in M9 medium using polymer nanocomposite sensors

Adley, Catherine C; Arshak, Khalil; Moore, Edward G.; Cunniffe, Colm; Campion, Michael; Menvielle, Isabelle (IEEE Computer Society, 2007)

Detection of bacteria such as Ralstonia pickettii in high purity water (HPW) has gained increasing interest for researchers. Contamination problems in HPW in both pharmaceutical and semiconductor applications can lead ...
Detection of viral DNA sequences in sporadic colorectal cancers in relation to CpG island methylation and methylator phenotype

Karpinski, Pawel; Myszka, Aleksander; Ramsey, David; Kielan, Wojciech; Sasiadek, Maria Malgorzata (Springer-Verlag, 2011)

There is evidence that insertion of viral DNA into a mammalian genome can lead to alterations of methylation patterns. The aim of the present study was to examine the presence of DNA sequences of five human DNA viruses ...
Determination of bit-rate adaptation thresholds for the opus codec for VoIP services

Han, Yi; Magoni, Damien; McDonagh, Patrick; Murphy, Liam (IEEE Computer Society, 2014)

In this paper, we present an experimental evaluation of the recently standardized Opus codec used in a VoIP context. Opus operates in both narrow and wideband modes, similar to Adaptive Multi-Rate (AMR). Through the use ...
Determination of residual stress within complex-shaped coarse-grained cobalt-chrome biomedical castings

Conroy, Brian P; Tanner, David A (Taylor and Francis, 2016)

ASTM F75 femoral knee implant casting components distort during manufacture due to residual stress re-distribution or inducement. These castings pose a number of challenges for residual stress determination methods; they ...
Determining conductivity with special aniostropy by boundary measurements

Alessandrini, Giovanni; Gaburro, Romina (Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics, 2001)

We prove results of uniqueness and stability at the boundary for the inverse problem of electrical impedance tomography in the presence of possibly anisotropic conduct.ivities. We assume that the unknown conductivity has ...
Determining the absorption in anisotropic media

Gaburro, Romina; Lionheart, William R. B. (2010)

The problem in Optical Tomography of determining the spacially dependent absorption coefficient in an anisotropic medium with a-priori known strong scattering is considered. The problem is modelled by the diffusion ...
Developing a configuration management model for use in medical device industry

Mc Caffery, Fergal; O'Connor, Rory V.; Coleman, Gerry (2006)

This paper outlines the development of a Configuration Management model for the MEDical device software industry (CMMED). The paper details how medical device regulations associated with Configuration Management (CM) may ...
Developing a course on designing software in globally distributed teams.

Lago, Patricia; Muccini, Henry; Ali Babar, Muhammad (IEEE Computer Society, 2008)

Present-day software engineering combines technical and social skills, as well as collaboration among people with different backgrounds (e.g. due to global development and outsourcing). In this paper we address the problem ...
Developing a game based virtual learning environment

Quigley, Enda (University of Limerick, 2011)

It‟s a common misconception that “digital natives” have a short attention span when in fact, they are just bored of the old methods of teaching and prefer to learn through fun, interactive games. These learners crave to ...
Developing a living city process : an architect's approach to enabling interdisciplinary practice in infrastructure development

Webb, Rosemarie (University of Limerick, 2010)

This research project develops a methodology for creating multifunctional infrastructure projects. It focuses on enabling an interdisciplinary approach to the establishment of a brief for the redesign of a road, the orbital ...
Developing a mediation framework for context-aware applications : an exploratory action research approach

Olsson, Carl Magnus (University of Limerick, 2011)

This thesis takes an exploratory approach to the study of context-aware applications. Such applications use physical conditions from sensors together with human factors such as social setting as cues for adapting in behavior ...
Developing a product derivation process framework for software product line organisataions

O'Leary, Pádraig; Richardson, Ita; Thiel, Steffen (2008)

Inefficient product derivation practices can greatly diminish the productivity gains expected from a software product line approach. As a foundation for systematic and efficient product derivation a better understanding ...
