Selection on ancestral genetic variation fuels repeated ecotype formation in bottlenose dolphins
(American Association for the Advancement of Science, 2021-10-27)Studying repeated adaptation can provide insights into the mechanisms allowing species to adapt to novel environments. Here, we investigate repeated evolution driven by habitat specialization in the common bottlenose ... -
Post-exercise cold water immersion does not improve subsequent 4-km cycling time-trial compared with passive and active recovery in normothermia.
(Frontiers Media, 2021-10-25)Background: We investigated whether a brief cold water immersion between two cycling time trials (TT) improves the performance of the latter compared with passive and active recovery in normothermic conditions ... -
Speciation in the deep: genomics and morphology reveal a new species of beaked whale Mesoplodon eueu
(The Royal Society, 2021-10-27)The deep sea has been described as the last major ecological frontier, as much of its biodiversity is yet to be discovered and described. Beaked whales (ziphiids) are among the most visible inhabitants of the deep sea, ... -
Deep neural networks for sequence based anomaly detection in cyber security
(Athlone Institute of Technology, 2019)Cyber security has become one of the most challenging aspects of modern world digital technology and it has become imperative to minimize and possibly avoid the impact of cybercrimes. Host based intrusion detection systems ... -
A workflow engine server (WES) for the design of adaptive and scalable workflows
(Athlone Institute of Technology, 2019)The generation of a workflow is an important management system that is widely applied in many different types of business. The traditional workflow approach, applied in specialised areas such as health or environmental ... -
A QoE evaluation on the influence of spatial audio on visual attention in 360° videos
(Athlone Institute of Technology, 2019)Research on neurological analysis of the human brain shows evidence of multimodal information processing. However, research in the area of human visual attention do not take into consideration the impact of the audio ... -
Development of electrospun PVA nanofibers via freeze-thawing method
(Athlone Institute of Technology, 2019)The polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) hydrogels are proven to have the benefits of improving water retention ability, cell attachment and controlled drug release in medical device materials for pharmaceutical applications. Due to ... -
Transfer and optimisation of injection moulding manufacture of medical devices using scientific moulding principles
(MDPI, 2021-10-25)Scientific moulding, also known as decoupled injection moulding, is a production methodology used to develop and determine robust moulding processes resilient to fluctuations caused by variation in temperature and viscosity. ... -
Blockchain for decentralized multi-drone to combat COVID-19
(Wiley, 2021-03-17)Currently, drones represent a promising technology for combating Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) due to the transport of goods, medical supplies to a given target location in the quarantine areas experiencing an epidemic ... -
Machine learning for smart environments in B5G networks: connectivity and QoS
(Hindawi, 2021-09-20)The number of Internet of Things (IoT) devices to be connected via the Internet is overgrowing. The heterogeneity and complexity of the IoT in terms of dynamism and uncertainty complicate this landscape dramatically and ... -
Delay-based network utility maximization modelling for congestion control in name data networking
(IEEE, 2021-10-05)Content replication and name-based routing lead to a natural multi-source and multipath transmission paradigm in NDN. Due to the unique connectionless characteristic of NDN, current end-to-end multipath congestion control ... -
Age – group differences in reactive strength and measures of intra-day reliability in female international footballers
(International Universities Strength and Conditioning Association, 2021-02-18)The aim of this present study was to compare the reactive strength index (RSI) characteristics and trial to trial reliability of U17, U19 and Senior female international soccer players. Fifty – seven elite female soccer ... -
Differences in anthropometric and physical performance characteristics between U17, U19, and Senior Irish female international football players
(SAGE Publications, 2021-04-01)This study aimed to compare the anthropometric physical performance characteristics of Irish female international footballers at U17, U19, and Senior age groups. Fifty-five (U17, n =24, U19, n =21, Senior, n = 10) female ... -
Unsupervised noise detection in unstructured data for automatic parsing
(IEEE, 2020-11-30)The telecommunications industry makes extensive use of data extracted from logs, alarms, traces, diagnostics, and other monitoring devices. Analyzing the generated data requires that the data be parsed, re-structured, and ... -
Microalgae as a natural ecological bioindicator for the simple real-time monitoring of aquaculture wastewater quality including provision for assessing impact of extremes in climate variance - a comparative case study from the Republic of Ireland
