An Evaluation of the Effects of Flipped Classroom Pre-Laboratory Activities on Students's Engagement with Laboratory Learning
(2020)A key goal of Institutes of Technology (IoTs) is to produce workplace-ready graduates who have the technical and practical skills to solve real world problems. Consequentially, the practical element of a module is a powerful ... -
Tunable memristor emulator using off-the-shelf components.
(Elsevier, 2020)Emerging memristor technology is as of late drawing broad consideration due to its potential for several applications. But, the non-availability of solid-state memristive devices puts a practical limitation. So, this paper ... -
Shallow and deep learning approaches for network intrusion alert prediction.
(Elsevier, 2020)The ever-increasing frequency and intensity of intrusion attacks on computer networks worldwide has necessitated intense research efforts towards the design of attack detection and prediction mechanisms. While there are a ... -
Low-complexity high-performance deep learning model for real time low cost embedded fire detection system.
(Elsevier, 2020)Correct and timely detection of fires has been an active area of research. Both shallow learning (with manual feature engineering), as well as deep learning (with its promise of automatically extracting meaningful ... -
A novel approach to analytical mineral analysis in the diagnosis of animal health.
(Athlone Institute of Technology, 2020-06)Minerals are nutrients that are essential for maintaining biological life. In animals they perform structural, physiological, catalytic and regulatory function. However when mineral deficiencies or toxicities occur ... -
Quantification of select minerals in animal serum and vitreous humour by inductively coupled plasma - optical emission spectrometry - ICP-OES
(Athlone Institute of Technology/Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine, 2020-05)Mineral intake and balances are essential in maintaining good animal health and wellbeing. Mineral deficiencies and toxicities can have a detrimental impact on animal health. Important to diagnose these occurrences ... -
Countermovement jump characteristics of world-class elite and sub-elite male sprinters.
(SPSR, 2020-06-23)World-class 100m sprinters need a combination of exceptional acceleration, maximum-velocity and speed endurance; each of which are dictated by their own complex interplay of physiological and biomechanical factors [1]. ... -
Investigation of the potential variation of toxins in bog-land water system.
(AIT, 2017)Irish bogs have suffered much damage from human activities such as peat extraction or agricultural works. Peat extraction is normally carried out with the use of drainage ditches to cause drying for ease of extraction. ... -
The investigation of land management practices on the soil ecosystem
(AIT, 2019)Ireland has a cool-temperate climate and frequent rainfall which provides a suitable environment for rich, arable soil. Agriculture has always been a crucial part of Irish society, sustaining the country’s food stocks and ... -
Trace model for cyclic behavior in wireless LANS.
(Pakistan Association for the Advancement of Science, 2018-09): For the estimation of cycle time in WLANs different parameters were used to analyze the cyclic behavior like packet loss cycle, successful packet cycle and collision cycle. This paper proposes a model to control all ... -
Property based attestation for a secure cloud monitoring system.
(IEEE, 2014-02)—In this paper, we consider the problem of trust in cloud monitoring systems. We design and develop a novel scheme for trust certification using property based attestation (PBA). The PBA is based on a trusted platform ... -
Providing care for a person with late-stage dementia at home: what are carers’ experiences?
(Sage, 2020)Background: It is widely reported that carers who provide care for a family member with dementia endure physical and psychological burdens. Not only do they fulfil an important role for the person with dementia but also ... -
Single system image: a survey
(Elsevier, 2016-04)Single system image is a computing paradigm where a number of distributed computing resources are aggregated and presented via an interface that maintains the illusion of interaction with a single system. This approach ... -
Suitability of selected natural fibres for concrete performance improvement.
(2020)The addition of fibres to reinforce concrete (FRC) is required when concrete structures may be submitted to other types of stresses beyond the compressive. Post-crack tensile strength, resistance to abrasion and additional ... -
SVS - a secure scheme for video streaming using SRTP AES and DH.
(Euro Journals, 2010)Video streaming technologies are becoming immensely important with the growth of the multimedia technology. With streaming, the end user can start watching the file almost as soon as it begins downloading. Security becomes ... -
MIKEY and SRTP integration for multicast streaming.
(Euro Journals, 2006)This paper presents the design and implementation of key management architecture for secure multimedia audio streaming to multicast receivers. It describes the methods and techniques which are used in making a multicast ... -
A comparative study of machine learning techniques for emotion recognition from peripheral physiological signals.
(IEEE, 2020-06)Recent developments in wearable technology have led to increased research interest in using peripheral physiological signals for emotion recognition. The non-invasive nature of peripheral physiological signal measurement ... -
Injectable bone substitute based on chitosan with polyethylene glycol polymeric solution and biphasic calcium phosphate microspheres.
(Elsevier, 2020-06-10)We described a method to produce an injectable bone substitute consisting of a solid and liquid phase, this solid was formed using the coacervation method consisting of a mixture of Hydroxyapatite (HAp) and beta-Tricalcium ... -
Effect of cullulose size-concentration on the structure of polyvinyl alcohol hydrogels.
