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.

One fo... Read More about Developing digital records: Early experiences of record and replay.

Compact fusion (2006)
Conference Proceeding
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.

The code document's structure and analysis (2006)
Journal Article
Reeves, S. (2006). The code document's structure and analysis

The purpose of this paper is twofold. Firstly it presents a preliminary and ethnomethodologically-informed analysis of the way in which the growing structure of a particular program's code was ongoingly derived from its earliest stages. This was moti... Read More about The code document's structure and analysis.

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)
Conference Proceeding
Kelly, B. G., & Brailsford, D. F. (2006). The B-coder: an improved binary arithmetic coder and probability estimator.

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)
Conference Proceeding
Radenkovic, M., & Wietrzyk, B. (2006). Wireless mobile ad-hoc sensor networks for very large scale cattle monitoring.

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.

Artificial Immune Tissue using Self-Organizing Networks (2006)
Conference Proceeding
Feyereisl, J., & Aickelin, U. (2006). Artificial Immune Tissue using Self-Organizing Networks.

As introduced by Bentley et al. (2005), artificial immune systems (AIS) are lacking tissue, which is present in one form or another in all living multi-cellular organisms. Some have argued that this concept in the context of AIS brings little novelty... Read More about Artificial Immune Tissue using Self-Organizing Networks.

Book Chapter
Li, J., & Aickelin, U. (2006). BOA for nurse scheduling. In M. Pelikan, K. Sastry, & E. Cantú-Paz (Eds.), Scalable optimization via probabilistic modeling: from algorithms to applications. Springer

Our research has shown that schedules can be built mimicking a human scheduler by using a set of rules that involve domain knowledge. This chapter presents a Bayesian Optimization Algorithm (BOA)for the nurse scheduling problem that chooses such suit... Read More about BOA for nurse scheduling.

Evaluating Invariances in Document Layout Functions (2006)
Conference Proceeding
Macdonald, A. J., Brailsford, D. F., & Lumley, J. (2006). Evaluating Invariances in Document Layout Functions. In D. F. Brailsford (Ed.),

With the development of variable-data-driven digital presses - where each document printed is potentially unique - there is a need for pre-press optimization to identify material that is invariant from document to document. In this way rasterisation... Read More about Evaluating Invariances in Document Layout Functions.

Conference Proceeding
Reeves, S., Pridmore, T., Crabtree, A., Green, J., Benford, S., & O'Malley, C. (2006). The spatial character of sensor technology.

By considering the spatial character of sensor-based interactive systems, this paper investigates how discussions of seams and seamlessness in ubiquitous computing neglect the complex spatial character that is constructed as a side-effect of deployin...

Network Intrusion Detection Systems (NIDS) are computer systems which monitor a network with the aim of discerning malicious from benign activity on that network. While a wide range of approaches have met varying levels of success, most IDSs rely on... Read More about An immune inspired Network Intrusion Detection System utilising correlation.

Data Reduction in Intrusion Alert Correlation (2006)
Journal Article
Tedesco, G., & Aickelin, U. (2006). Data Reduction in Intrusion Alert Correlation. WSEAS Transactions on Computers,

Network intrusion detection sensors are usually built around low level models of network traffic. This means that their output is of a similarly low level and as a consequence, is difficult to analyze. Intrusion alert correlation is the task of autom...
