Articulation and Clarification of the Dendritic Cell Algorithm (2006)
Book Chapter
Greensmith, J., Aickelin, U., & Twycross, J. (2006). Articulation and Clarification of the Dendritic Cell Algorithm. In Artificial Immune Systems: 5th International Conference, ICARIS 2006, Oeiras, Portugal, September 4-6, 2006. Proceedings. Springer. https://doi.org/10.1007/11823940_31

The Dendritic Cell algorithm (DCA) is inspired by recent work in innate immunity. In this paper a formal description of the DCA is given. The DCA is described in detail, and its use as an anomaly detector is illustrated within the context of computer... Read More about Articulation and Clarification of the Dendritic Cell Algorithm.

The teaching space allocation problem with splitting (2006)
Book Chapter
Beyrouthy, C., Burke, E. K., Landa-Silva, D., Mccollum, B., Mcmullan, P., & Parkes, A. J. (2006). The teaching space allocation problem with splitting. In Practice and Theory of Automated Timetabling: VI 6th International Conference, PATAT 2006 Brno, Czech Republic, August 30–September 1, 2006 Revised Selected Papers (228-247). Springer Verlag. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-540-77345-0_15

A standard problem within universities is that of teaching space allocation which can be thought of as the assignment of rooms and times to various teaching activities. The focus is usually on courses that are expected to fit into one room. However,... Read More about The teaching space allocation problem with splitting.

Developing digital records: Early experiences of record and replay (2006)
Journal Article
Crabtree, A., French, A., Greenhalgh, C., Benford, S., Cheverst, K., Fitton, D., …Graham, C. (2006). Developing digital records: Early experiences of record and replay. Computer Supported Cooperative Work, 15(4), 281-319. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10606-006-9026-z

In this paper we consider the development of 'digital records' to support ethnographic study of interaction and collaboration in ubiquitous computing environments and articulate the core concept of 'record and replay' through two case studies. One fo... Read More about Developing digital records: Early experiences of record and replay.

Compact fusion (2006)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Hope, C., & Hutton, G. (2006). Compact fusion.

There are many advantages to writing functional programs in a compositional style, such as clarity and modularity. However, the intermediate data structures produced may mean that the resulting program is inefficient in terms of space. These may be r... Read More about Compact fusion.

Case Based Heuristic Selection for Timetabling Problems (2006)
Journal Article
Burke, E., Petrovic, S., & Qu, R. (2006). Case Based Heuristic Selection for Timetabling Problems. Journal of Scheduling, 9(2),

This paper presents a case-based heuristic selection approach for automated university course and exam timetabling. The method described in this paper is motivated by the goal of developing timetabling systems that are fundamentally more general than...

The B-coder: an improved binary arithmetic coder and probability estimator (2006)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kelly, B. G., & Brailsford, D. F. The B-coder: an improved binary arithmetic coder and probability estimator. Presented at Data Compression Conference 2006 (DCC 2006)

In this paper we present the B-coder, an efficient binary arithmetic coder that performs extremely well on a wide range of data. The B-coder should be classed as an `approximate’ arithmetic coder, because of its use of an approximation to multiplicat...

Wireless mobile ad-hoc sensor networks for very large scale cattle monitoring (2006)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Radenkovic, M., & Wietrzyk, B. Wireless mobile ad-hoc sensor networks for very large scale cattle monitoring. Presented at 6th International Workshop on Applications and Services in Wireless Networks (ASWN '06)

This paper investigates the use of wireless mobile ad hoc sensor networks in the nationwide cattle monitoring systems. This problem is essential for monitoring general animal health and detecting outbreaks of animal diseases that can...

Multiple-retrieval case-based reasoning for course timetabling problems (2006)
Journal Article
Burke, E., MacCarthy, B. L., Petrovic, S., & Qu, R. (2006). Multiple-retrieval case-based reasoning for course timetabling problems. Journal of the Operational Research Society, 57(2),

The structured representation of cases by attribute graphs in a Case-Based Reasoning (CBR) system for course timetabling has been the subject of previous research by the authors. In that system, the case base is organised as a decision tree and the r... Read More about Multiple-retrieval case-based reasoning for course timetabling problems.
