Managing economic value and uncertainty on software projects : an empirical study with the CASSE framework
(2009)
Lack of adaptive-predictor models in software development renders the decision-making process complex, principally when evaluating investment options. Prior work has presented various approaches which are still non-integrated, ...
Usable authentication for mobile banking
(2009)
This dissertation describes the design of two mobile authentication techniques: combinational graphical passwords and gesture passwords. These systems were implemented as prototypes. The prototypes along with a PIN ...
Softbridge : a socially aware framework for communication bridges over digital divides
(2009)
Computer scientists must align social and technical factors for communication technologies in developing regions yet lack a framework to do so. The novel Softbridge framework comprises several components to address this ...

A lightweight interface to local grid scheduling systems
(2009)
Many complex research problems require an immense amount of computational power to solve. In order to solve such problems, the concept of the computational Grid was conceived. Although Grid technology is hailed as the next ...
Parallel fluid dynamics for the film and animation industries
(2009)
The creation of automated fluid effects for film and media using computer simulations is popular, as artist time is reduced and greater realism can be achieved through the use of numerical simulation of physical equations. ...
Towards realistic interactive sand : a GPU-based framework
(2009)
Many real-time computer games contain virtual worlds built upon terrestrial landscapes, in particular, "sandy" terrains, such as deserts and beaches. These terrains often contain large quantities of granular material, ...
Force-extension of the Amylose Polysaccharide
(2009)
Myasthenia gravis (MG) is an autoimmune disorder in which auto-antibodies directed at the acetylcholine receptors (AChR) of the neuromuscular junction (NMJ) block, alter or destroy their targets. The anti-AChR antibodies ...
A lossy, dictionary -based method for short message service (SMS) text compression
(2009)
Short message service (SMS) message compression allows either more content to be fitted into a single message or fewer individual messages to be sent as part of a concatenated (or long) message. While essentially only ...
A hybrid scavenger grid approach to intranet search
(2009)
According to a 2007 global survey of 178 organisational intranets, 3 out of 5 organisations are not satisfied with their intranet search services. However, as intranet data collections become large, effective full-text ...
