  • Debris flow forecast based on soil-water coupling mechanism: a case study in Aizi gully watershed 
    Na, He; Haicheng, Niu; Chen, N. Sh.; Wei, Zhong; Cosgrove, Tom (2017)
    On 28 June 2012, a huge disastrous debris flow occurred in Aizi gully watershed which is situated in Ningnan County, Sichuan Province, China. This debris flow event not only resulted in 40 people being dead or missing, but ...
  • Deciding on open innovation:an exploration of how firms create and capture value with open source software. 
    Morgan, Lorraine; Finnegan, Patrick (Springer, 2008)
    Open innovation is a paradigm that proposes that firms can and should use external as well as internal innovations/ideas. A popular example of open innovation has been open source software (OSS). The key issues facing ...
  • A decision support system for global software development 
    Beecham, Sarah; Noll, John; Richardson, Ita; Dhungana, Deepak (IEEE Computer Society, 2011)
    Global Software Development (GSD) research has reached a level of maturity. Paper-based solutions and guidelines are readily available to solve many known distributed software development problems. The large number of ...
  • Decomposition of software into components 
    Parnas, David Lorge (2003)
    Most software products are too large to be completed by a single person in a short period. To make the development manageable, the software must be divided into components that can be developed (and later maintained) ...
  • Defence against black hole and selective forwarding attacks for medical WSNs in the IoT 
    Mathur, Avijit; Newe, Thomas; Rao, Muzaffar (MDPI, 2016)
    Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are being used to facilitate monitoring of patients in hospital and home environments. These systems consist of a variety of different components/sensors and many processes like clustering, ...
  • Defocus image contrast in hexagonally-ordered mesoporous material 
    Nakahara, S; Tanner, David A.; Hudson, D.A; Magner, S; Redington, E; Hodnett, Benjamin K. (Royal Society of Chemistry, 2011)
    A transmission electron microscope was used to characterize a powder form of hexagonally-ordered mesoporous silica material. The structural symmetry built into this amorphous material allowed one to obtain three characteristic ...
  • Deformation of the lamina cribrosa and optic nerve due to changes in cerebrospinal fluid pressure 
    Feola, Andrew J.; Coudrillier, Baptiste; Mulvihill, John J.; Geraldes, Diogo M.; Vo, Nghia T.; Albon, Julie; Abel, Richard L.; Samuels, Brian C.; Ross Ethier, C. (Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology, 2017)
    PURPOSE. Cerebrospinal fluid pressure (CSFp) changes are involved or implicated in various ocular conditions including glaucoma, idiopathic intracranial hypertension, and visual impairment and intracranial pressure syndrome. ...
  • The delay effect in a sochastic multiplier–accelerator model 
    Dassios, Ioannis K.; Zimbidis, Alexandros; Kontzalis, Charalambos (Springer, 2014)
    This paper extends the classical Samuelson multiplier–accelerator model for national economy. Actually, this new modeling structure removes the basic shortcoming of the original model producing stable business cycles when ...
  • Delay tolerant networks and spatially detailed human mobility 
    Stabeler, Matthew; Cellai, Davide; Dobson, Simon (IEEE Computer Society, 2009)
    We propose a prototype for a real-world, human network proximity experiment with detailed recordings of the position of individuals. Our aim is to provide a comprehensive dataset to investigate the internal correlations ...
  • A Delphi study of the influences on innovation adoption and process evolution in a large open source project: the case of Debian 
    Krafft, Martin F. (University of Limerick, Department of Computer Science & Information Systems, 2010)
    The Debian Project is possibly the largest FLOSS project, but its processes have not scaled in relation to its growth and complexity. Many aspects of daily tasks require the volunteer contributors to expend time on repetitive, ...
  • Demo: PIT a practical mutation testing tool for Java 
    Coles, Henry; Laurent, Thomas; Ventresque, Anthony; Henard, Christopher; Papadakis, Mike (Association for Computing Machinery, 2016)
    Mutation analysis introduces program defects with the intend of verifying whether candidate tests are able to trigger anomalous behaviour. In case the tests can distinguish the defective behaviour from that of the ...
  • Demonstrating localised workplace travel planning in Limerick City 
    Cullinane, Kay; Cosgrove, Tom (Irish Transport Research Network, 2014)
    As 'Ireland's Smarter Travel Demonstration City' Limerick is charged with piloting ways to convince its citizens to move around their city in a more sustainable way, in particular to walk, cycle and use public transport ...
  • The denotational semantics of slotted-circus 
    Gancarski, Pawel; Butterfield, Andrew (Springer, 2009)
    This paper describes a complete denotational semantics, in the UTP framework, of slotted-Circus, a generic framework for reasoning about discrete timed/synchronously clocked systems. The key result presented here is a ...
  • Depedent Gaussian mixture models for source seperation 
    Quirós Carretero, Alicia; Wilson, Simon P (2011)
    Source separation is a common task in signal processing and is often analogous to factor analysis. In this work we look at a factor analysis model for source separation of multi-spectral image data where prior information ...
  • Dependence of heterogeneous nucleation on hydrogen bonding lifetime and complementarity 
    Verma, Vivek; Zeglinski, Jacek; Hudson, Sarah P.; Davern, Peter; Hodnett, Benjamin K. (Amcerican Chemical Society, 2018)
    The crystallization of seven active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) (acetaminophen (AAP), carbamazepine (CBMZ), caffeine (CAF), phenylbutazone (PBZ), risperidone (RIS), clozapine base (CPB), and fenofibrate (FF)) was ...
  • Dependence of magnetic properties on micro- to nanostructure of CoNiFe films 
    Rhen, Fernando M.F.; Roy, Saibal (American Institute of Physics, 2008)
    The magnetic properties of electrodeposited CoNiFe films with thicknesses varying from 0.20 to 10 µm were studied. The films show a single face-centered-cubic CoNiFe phase with grain sizes ranging from 23 to 29 nm. The ...
  • Deploying a software process lifecycle standard in very small companies 
    O'Connor, Rory V. (IGI Global, 2014)
    In the case of very small software companies, implementing management procedures, and controls to appropriately administer their software development activity is a significant challenge. With this in mind, the ISO/IEC ...
  • Deploying lifecycle profiles for very small entities: an early stage industry view 
    O'Connor, Rory V.; Laporte, Claude Y. (Springer-Verlag, 2011)
    The recently published ISO/IEC 29110 standard lifecycle profiles for very small entities has at its core a management and engineering guide [1] which is targeted at very small entities (enterprises, organizations, departments ...
  • Deriving process specifications from augmented data models 
    Botterweck, Goetz; Simon, Carlo (2004)
    This paper presents an approach which enables a system analyst to derive process models from data models. To accomplish this, existing data models are augmented with additional informa-tion regarding the intended process ...
  • A descriptive framework for investigating problems in the application of systems development methodologies 
    Fitzgerald, Brian (BCS Publications, 1995)
    It is generally taken as axiomatic that systems development methodologies (SDMs) play a useful role in guiding the development process, and that their increased adoption would improve the product and process of systems ...
