Dynamic collaboration of centralized & Edge processing for coordinated data management in an IoT paradigm.
(IEEE, 2018-05)Over the past decade, much focus in the area of Technology has deviated towards two relatively new areas; "The Internet of Things" and "Machine Learning". Although completely separate technologies, they have one major ... -
Addressing challenges and opportunities of the European seafood sector under a circular economy framework.
(Elsevier, 2020-02)The European seafood and aquaculture sectors are facing important challenges in terms of environmental threats (climate change, marine debris, resources depletion), social development (worker rights, consumer's awareness) ... -
An adaptive policy approach to video quality assurance.
(IEEE, 2018-12)Video in all its forms is probably the most important service carried on networks today and few would argue that video quality assurance is one of the most daunting network management challenges. Quite often, video ... -
A tutorial for olfaction-based multisensorial media application design and evaluation.
(ACM, 2017-09)Recently, multimedia researchers have added several so-called new media to the traditional multimedia components (e.g., olfaction, haptic, and gustation). Evaluating multimedia user-perceived Quality of Experience (QoE) ... -
Bidirectional LSTM autoencoder for sequence based anomaly detection in cyber security.
(United Kingdom Simulation Society, 2019)Cyber-security is concerned with protecting information, a vital asset in today’s world. The volume of data that is generated can be usefully analyzed when cyber-security systems are effectively implemented with the aid ... -
Application of immersive technologies for education: state of the art.
(IEEE, 2015-11)Existing multimedia systems used in education mostly address only two senses by using two communication channels (visual and audio) of the five human senses (sight, hearing, taste, smell, and touch), limiting the potential ... -
Synthesis of linear aliphatic polycarbonate macroglycols using dimethylcarbonate.
(Wiley, 2009-01-05)A series of linear aliphatic polycarbonate polyols were synthesized using dimethylcarbonate and a linear alkane diol or specific combinations of linear alkane diols. Polyol synthesis was carried out in a two‐stage process ... -
Evaluation and characterisation of urinary catheter coating utilising Hansen solubility parameters and FEA analysis.
(Elsevier, 2015-08-15)This work investigated the Hansen solubility parameters required to optimise a functional polyurethane base coat as an attachment for a lubricious polyvinyl pyrrolidone coating for polyvinyl chloride urinary catheters. ... -
Matrix and reservoir-type multipurpose vaginal rings for controlled release of dapivirine and levonorgestrel
(Elsevier, 2016-09-10)A matrix-type silicone elastomer vaginal ring providing 28-day continuous release of dapivirine (DPV) a lead candidate human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) microbicide compound has recently demonstrated moderate ... -
In vitro fibroblast and pre-osteoblastic cellular responses on laser surface modified Ti-6AI-4V.
(IOP Publishing, 2014-12-29)The success of any implant, dental or orthopaedic, is driven by the interaction of implant material with the surrounding tissue. In this context, the nature of the implant surface plays a direct role in determining the ... -
Tailoring surface properties from nanotubes and anodic layers of titanium for biomedical applications.
(Woodhead Publishing, 2019)The following chapter gives an overview of the anodic layers and nanotubes produced with plasma electrolytic oxidation. An introduction into the mechanisms involved in producing these nanofilms, such as the required ... -
Access control policy enforcement for zero-trust-networking.
(IEEE, 2018-06)The evolution of the enterprise computing landscape towards emerging trends such as fog/edge computing and the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) are leading to a change of approach to securing computer networks to deal ... -
Microbiological characterisation and impact of suspended solids on pathogen removal from wastewaters in dairy processing factories.
(CUP, 2018-08)In this Research Communication we investigate the microbiological profile of 12 dairy wastewater streams from three contrasting Irish dairy processing factories to determine whether faecal indicators/pathogens were present ... -
DairyWater: striving for sustainability within the dairy processing industry in the Republic of Ireland.
(CUP, 2018-08)This Review describes the objectives and methodology of the DairyWater project as it aims to aid the Irish dairy processing industry in achieving sustainability as it expands. With the abolition of European milk quotas in ... -
