And now for something completely different: looking ahead to new encryption and secrecy protocols
Conference Proceeding
Ashman, H., & Gilbert, M. (2001). And now for something completely different: looking ahead to new encryption and secrecy protocols.

Transmitting sensitive data over non-secret channels has always required encryption technologies to ensure that the data arrives without exposure to eavesdroppers. The Internet has made it possible to transmit vast volumes of data more rapidly and ch...

A framework to support multiple perspectives in eco-efficiency decisions
Conference Proceeding
Farr, R., Arman, H., & Gindy, N. A framework to support multiple perspectives in eco-efficiency decisions.

Increasingly, it is recognised that human activity is causing our environment to degrade, and that there is a very real danger of doing irreversible damage to natural systems of which we have only a partial understanding. Neither living in, nor doing... Read More about A framework to support multiple perspectives in eco-efficiency decisions.

Modelling reactive and proactive behaviour in simulation
Conference Proceeding
Majid, M. A., Siebers, P., & Aickelin, U. Modelling reactive and proactive behaviour in simulation.

This research investigated the simulation model behaviour of a traditional and combined discrete event as well as agent based simulation models when modelling human reactive and proactive behaviour in human centric complex systems. A departmental st... Read More about Modelling reactive and proactive behaviour in simulation.

Parity-Time coupled microresonators: Kramers-Kronig limitation
Conference Proceeding
Phang, S., Vukovic, A., Creagh, S. C., Sewell, P., Gradoni, G., & Benson, T. M. Parity-Time coupled microresonators: Kramers-Kronig limitation.

In this talk, we use a KKE argument to show that the presence of dispersion alters the eigen-frequencies of coupled PT coupled microresonators, so that their eigen-frequencies are no longer complex conjugates after the EP.
