Applying Bayesian networks to model uncertainty in project scheduling
(2009)
Risk Management has become an important part of Project Management. In spite
of numerous advances in the field of Project Risk Management (PRM), handling
uncertainty in complex projects still remains a challenge. An ...
Topology and congestion invariant in global internet-scale networks
(2010)
Infrastructures like telecommunication systems, power transmission
grids and the Internet are complex networks that are vulnerable to
catastrophic failure. A common mechanism behind this kind of failure
is avalanche-like ...
Cooperative control of relay based cellular networks
(2009)
The increasing popularity of wireless communications and the higher data
requirements of new types of service lead to higher demands on wireless networks.
Relay based cellular networks have been seen as an effective way ...
A hierarchal framework for recognising activities of daily life
(2009)
In today’s working world the elderly who are dependent can sometimes be
neglected by society. Statistically, after toddlers it is the elderly who are observed
to have higher accident rates while performing everyday ...
Ultra wideband gigabit powerline communication
(2009)
Powerline Communication (PLC) has long been established for low
data rate applications by the electric supply companies. Since 1991,
the European CENELEC standard EN 50065 has ruled the use of 3
- 148.5KHz frequency ...
Automatic chord transcription from audio using computational models of musical context
(2010)
This thesis is concerned with the automatic transcription of chords from audio, with an emphasis
on modern popular music. Musical context such as the key and the structural segmentation aid
the interpretation of chords ...
An intelligent radio access network selection and optimisation system in heterogeneous communication environments
(2010)
The overlapping of the different wireless network technologies creates heterogeneous communication environments. Future mobile communication system considers the technological and operational services of heterogeneous ...
Strategies for image visualisation and browsing
(2010)
The exploration of large information spaces has remained a challenging task even
though the proliferation of database management systems and the state-of-the art
retrieval algorithms is becoming pervasive. Signi cant ...
Study and miniaturisation of antennas for ultra wideband communication systems
(2009)
Wireless communications have been growing with an astonishing rate over the past
few years and wireless terminals for future applications are required to provide
diverse services. This rising demand prompts the needs for ...
Multi modal multi-semantic image retrieval
(2010)
The rapid growth in the volume of visual information, e.g. image, and video can
overwhelm users’ ability to find and access the specific visual information of interest
to them. In recent years, ontology knowledge-based ...
