An important issue in multi-objective optimisation is how to ensure that the obtained non-dominated set covers the Pareto front as widely as possible. A number of techniques (e.g. weight vectors, niching, clustering, cellular structures, etc.) have b...

Presentation / Conference
Qu, R., & Burke, E. (2005, August). Hybrid Variable Neighborhood HyperHeuristicsfor Exam Timetabling Problems. Paper presented at The Sixth Metaheuristics International Conference 2005, Vienna, Austria

This paper presents our work on analysing the high level search within a graph based hyperheuristic. The graph based hyperheuristic solves the problem at a higher level by searching through permutations of graph heuristics rather than the actual solu...

Movements of interfaces can be analyzed in terms of whether they are expected, sensed, and desired. Expected movements are those that users naturally perform; sensed are those that can be measured by a computer; and desired movements are those that a...

Enhancing composite Digital Documents Using XML-based Standoff Markup (2005)
Conference Proceeding
Thomas, P. L., & Brailsford, D. F. (2005). Enhancing composite Digital Documents Using XML-based Standoff Markup. In P. R. King (Ed.),

Document representations can rapidly become unwieldy if they try to encapsulate all possible document properties, ranging from abstract structure to detailed rendering and layout. We present a composite document approach wherein an XMLbased document... Read More about Enhancing composite Digital Documents Using XML-based Standoff Markup.

Strategic Alert Throttling for Intrusion Detection Systems (2005)
Conference Proceeding
Tedesco, G., & Aickelin, U. (2005). Strategic Alert Throttling for Intrusion Detection Systems.

Network intrusion detection systems are themselves becoming targets of attackers. Alert flood attacks may be used to conceal malicious activity by hiding it among a deluge of false alerts sent by the attacker. Although these types of attacks are ver...

Designing the spectator experience (2005)
Conference Proceeding
Reeves, S., Benford, S., O'Malley, C., & Fraser, M. (2005). Designing the spectator experience.

Interaction is increasingly a public affair, taking place in our theatres, galleries, museums, exhibitions and on the city streets. This raises a new design challenge for HCI, questioning how a performer s interaction with a computer experienced is b... Read More about Designing the spectator experience.

Encapsulating and Manipulating Component Object Graphics (COGs) using SVG (2005)
Conference Proceeding
Macdonald, A. J., Brailsford, D. F., & Bagley, S. R. (2005). Encapsulating and Manipulating Component Object Graphics (COGs) using SVG. In P. R. King (Ed.),

Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) has an imaging model similar to that of PostScript and PDF but the XML basis of SVG allows it to participate fully, via namespaces, in generalised XML documents.There is increasing interest in using SVG as a Page Descri...

'Cooperative Automated worm Response and Detection ImmuNe ALgorithm (CARDINAL) inspired by T-cell Immunity and Tolerance' (2005)
Conference Proceeding
Kim, J., Wilson, W., Aickelin, U., & McLeod, J. (2005). 'Cooperative Automated worm Response and Detection ImmuNe ALgorithm (CARDINAL) inspired by T-cell Immunity and Tolerance'.

The role of T-cells within the immune system is to confirm and assess anomalous situations and then either respond to or tolerate the source of the effect. To illustrate how these mechanisms can be harnessed to solve real-world problems, we present t...

Calculating an Exceptional Machine (2005)
Conference Proceeding
Hutton, G., & Wright, J. (2005). Calculating an Exceptional Machine.

In previous work we showed how to verify a compiler for a small language with exceptions. In this article we show how to calculate, as opposed to verify, an abstract machine for this language. The key step is the use of Reynold's defunctionalizatio... Read More about Calculating an Exceptional Machine.

What can be learned from failed proofs of non-theorems? (2005)
Conference Proceeding
Dennis, L. A., & Nogueira, P. (2005). What can be learned from failed proofs of non-theorems?. In J. Hurd, E. Smith, & A. Darbari (Eds.),

This paper reports an investigation into the link between failed proofs and non-theorems. It seeks to answer the question of whether anything more can be learned from a failed proof attempt than can be discovered from a counter-example. We suggest...
