Adaptive Bayesian Agents: Enabling distributed social networks
(2006)
This article brings together two views of organisations: resource-based theories (RBT) and social network analysis (SNA). Resource-based theories stress the importance of tangible assets, as well as less tangible ones, ...
Flexible packaging methodologies for rapid deployment of customisable component-based digital libraries
(2006)
Software engineering is a discipline concerned with manufacturing or developing software. Software plays a pivotal role in everyday life, an absence of which will be devastating to a number of governmental, recreational ...
Link prediction and link detection in sequences of large social networks using temporal and local metrics
(2006)
This dissertation builds upon the ideas introduced by Liben-Nowell and Kleinberg in The Link Prediction Problem for Social Networks [42]. Link prediction is the problem of predicting between which unconnected nodes in a ...
MIRMaid : an interface for a content based Music Information Retrieval test-bed
(2006)
MIRMaid is an acronym for Music Information Retrieval Modular aid and is an interface that allows different content based retrieval tasks to be compared against each other to find optimal combinations of retrieval parameters ...
The design and evaluation of a Java image analysis tool for componentizing lines from digitial architectural floor plans
(2006)
This research set out to determine the feasibility of using Java to create a tool that could perform paper-to-electronic format conversion by vectorizing the lines in a raster image of an architectural floor plan. The tool ...
Schema matching in a peer-to-peer database system
(2006)
Peer-to-peer or P2P systems are applications that allow a network of peers to share resources in a scalable and efficient manner. My research is concerned with the use of P2P systems for sharing databases. To allow data ...
Intelligent detection of anomalies in telecommunications customer behaviour
(2006)
In this research, we present a modelling technique that can efficiently facilitate anomaly detection that will help call analysts and managers with adaptive decision-making. We developed and implemented a Data 'fransformation ...
An adaptive agent architecture for exogenous data sales forecasting
(2006)
In a world of unpredictability and complexity, sales forecasting is becoming recognised as essential to operations planning in business and industry. With increased globalisation and higher competition, more products are ...
An examination and implementation of the libor market model
(2006)
The relatively young field of quantitative finance has grown over the past thirty years with the cherry-picking of a wide variety of techniques from the disciplines of finance, mathematics and computer science. The Libor ...
An $\Omega(n \log n)$ Lower Bound on the Cost of Mutual Exclusion
(2006-07-23)
We prove an $\Omega(n \log n)$ lower bound on the number ofnon-busywaiting memory accesses by any deterministic algorithm solving$n$ process mutual exclusion that communicates via shared registers.The cost of the algorithm ...
