Governance, networks and policy change: The case of Cannabis in the United Kingdom (2009)
Book Chapter

The two coterminous concepts of governance and policy networks have been reasserted in public management studies in the wake of the recent decline in the popularity of the so-called New Public Management (NPM) movement. The concepts appear to be inte... Read More about Governance, networks and policy change: The case of Cannabis in the United Kingdom.

Economics and Human Geography (2009)
Book Chapter

© 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved. At first glance, economics and human geography seem to have much in common. However, the relationship between the two disciplines has been dynamic and contested over recent years as epistemologies and ontolog... Read More about Economics and Human Geography.

An improved version of volume dominance for multi-objective optimisation (2009)
Book Chapter

This paper proposes an improved version of volume dominance to assign fitness to solutions in Pareto-based multi-objective optimisation. The impact of this revised volume dominance on the performance of multi-objective evolutionary algorithms is inve...

John Freeman, 1969–71 (2009)
Book Chapter

At less than two years duration, the ambassadorship of John Freeman was the second shortest covered by this book. It took place, too, in a singularly uneventful period in Anglo-American relations, between the dramas of 1967–68 — when the devaluation... Read More about John Freeman, 1969–71.

The future of tuberculosis vaccinology (2009)
Book Chapter

© 2006 by Taylor and Francis Group, LLC. The outcome of infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis is crucially dependent on the immune response of the host. Most individuals mount a response that is sufficient to prevent progression to disease but ma... Read More about The future of tuberculosis vaccinology.

Evolutionary non-linear great deluge for university course timetabling (2009)
Book Chapter

This paper presents a hybrid evolutionary algorithm to tackle university course timetabling problems. The proposed approach is an extension of a non-linear great deluge algorithm in which evolutionary operators are incorporated. First, we generate a...

Exploring feasible and infeasible regions in the vehicle routing problem with time windows using a multi-objective particle swarm optimization approach (2009)
Book Chapter

This paper investigates the ability of a discrete particle swarm optimization algorithm (DPSO) to evolve solutions from infeasibility to feasibility for the Vehicle Routing Problem with Time Windows (VRPTW). The proposed algorithm incorporates some p...

Supporting the design of network-spanning applications (2009)
Book Chapter

In this case study, we describe our use of ECT, a tool intended to simplify the design and development of network-spanning applications. We have used ECT throughout the course of a two-year collaboration, which has involved individuals with exper... Read More about Supporting the design of network-spanning applications.

Artificial dendritic cells: multi-faceted perspectives (2009)

Gap Junctions and Emergent Rhythms (2009)
Book Chapter

Gap junction coupling is ubiquitous in the brain, particularly between the dendritic trees of inhibitory interneurons. Such direct non-synaptic interaction allows for direct electrical communication between cells. Unlike spike-time driven synaptic ne... Read More about Gap Junctions and Emergent Rhythms.

Model based analysis of fMRI-data: Applying the sSoTS framework to the neural basic of preview search. (2009)
Book Chapter

The current work aims to unveil the neural circuits under- lying visual search over time and space by using a model-based analysis of behavioural and fMRI data. It has been suggested by Watson and Humphreys [31] that the prioritization of new stimuli...

Parcellation of fMRI datasets with ICA and PLS: a data driven approach (2009)
Book Chapter

Inter-subject parcellation of functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) data based on a standard General Linear Model (GLM) and spectral clustering was recently proposed as a means to alleviate the issues associated with spatial normalization in...

Exploration of the dendritic cell algorithm with the duration calculus (2009)
Book Chapter

As one of the newest members in Articial Immune Systems (AIS), the Dendritic Cell Algorithm (DCA) has been applied to a range of problems. These applications mainly belong to the eld of anomaly detection. However, real-time detection, a new challeng...
