With the rise of user-generated content (blogs, wikis, ratings, reviews, opinions etc.) the web is evolving from a repository of content into a repository of experiences, and as it evolves there are many opportunities to ...
Web search is the main way for millions of users to access information every day, but we continue to struggle when it comes to finding the right information at the right time. In this paper we build on recent work to ...
Although collaborative searching is not supported by mainstream search engines, recent research has high- lighted the inherently collaborative nature of many web search tasks. In this paper, we describe HeyStaks ...
Emerging healthcare applications can benefit
enormously from recent advances in pervasive technology and computing. This paper introduces the CLARITY Modular Ambient Health and Wellness Measurement Platform, which is a ...
Many online stores encourage their users to submit product/service reviews in order to guide future purchasing decisions. These reviews are often listed alongside product recommendations but, to date, limited attention has ...

This paper analyses the advantages and
disadvantages of the K-means algorithm and the DENCLUE algorithm. In order to realise the automation of clustering analysis and eliminate human factors, both partitioning and ...
Recent research has highlighted the inherently collaborative nature of many Web search tasks, even though collaborative
searching is not supported by mainstream search engines. In this paper, we examine the activity of ...
In wireless sensor networks, determining the set of locations to activate sensors, such that the amount of information received is maximised, is an important task. With the model driven approach to sensor networks, a ...
The population of the world is growing older, and the balance of old to young is shifting so that by 2050 over 30% of the population is expected to be over 60 years old, with particularly high ratios of old to young in the ...
There is a need to increase long-term exercise compliance amongst rheumatology patients to improve symptoms and quality of life. Exergaming systems, (computer video-game based exercise) could provide these patients with a ...
One of the most important factors to be considered when developing an application for a Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is its power consumption. Intelligent Power Management (IPM) for a WSN is crucial in maximising the ...

The last few years have seen a wide adoption of the IEEE 802.15.4 MAC/PHY standard for low-power communication between
wireless sensor nodes. Within this work we study some fundamental drawbacks of the 802.15.4 specifications ...
The so-called Social Web has helped to change the very nature of the Internet by emphasising the role of our online experiences as new forms of content and service knowledge. In this paper we describe an approach to improving ...
Nowadays, control of heating, cooling and ventilation equipment operation is mainly achieved via timers with fixed setback schedules, configured using experience and standard models of space occupancy. Applying generic ...
Visualization is among the most powerful of data analysis techniques and is readily available in standalone systems or components
of everyday software packages. In recent years much work has been done to design and develop ...
Recent economic and technical advances in wireless communication have allowed the deployment of low-power and lossy wireless networks—LowPANs, potentially comprised of a large number of nodes to serve new types of applications. ...
Appliance load monitoring systems are designed to disaggregate the power load of a building in order to estimate the nature of individual loads, providing a real-time fine-grained recognition of active appliances. Monitoring ...
