Visual Attention in Objective Image Quality Assessment: Based on Eye-Tracking Data (2011)
Journal Article
Liu, H., & Heynderickx, I. (2011). Visual Attention in Objective Image Quality Assessment: Based on Eye-Tracking Data. IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems for Video Technology, 21(7), 971-982. https://doi.org/10.1109/tcsvt.2011.2133770

Since the human visual system (HVS) is the ultimate assessor of image quality, current research on the design of objective image quality metrics tends to include an important feature of the HVS, namely, visual attention. Different metrics for image q... Read More about Visual Attention in Objective Image Quality Assessment: Based on Eye-Tracking Data.

XML Documents Normalization Using GN-DTD (2011)
Journal Article
Zainol, Z., & Wang, B. (2011). XML Documents Normalization Using GN-DTD. International Journal of Information Retrieval Research, 1(1), 53-76. https://doi.org/10.4018/ijirr.2011010105

Designing a well-structured XML document is important for the sake of readability, maintainability and more importantly to avoid both data redundancies and update anomalies. This paper proposes to improve and simplify XML structural design using a no... Read More about XML Documents Normalization Using GN-DTD.

An approach to optimization of fault tolerant architectures using HiP-HOPS (2011)
Journal Article
Adachi, M., Papadopoulos, Y., Sharvia, S., Parker, D., & Tohdo, T. (2011). An approach to optimization of fault tolerant architectures using HiP-HOPS. Software: Practice and Experience, 41(11), 1303-1327. https://doi.org/10.1002/spe.1044

New processes for the design of dependable systems must address both cost and dependability concerns. They should also maximize the potential for automation to address the problem of increasing technological complexity and the potentially immense des...

Capture and reuse of composable failure patterns (2010)
Journal Article
Wolforth, I., Walker, M., Papadopoulos, Y., & Grunske, L. (2010). Capture and reuse of composable failure patterns. International Journal of Critical Computer-Based Systems, 1(1/2/3), 128-147. https://doi.org/10.1504/IJCCBS.2010.031710

Emerging safety analysis techniques use composition of failure models or fault simulation in formal models of a system to determine relationships between the causes and effects of failure. Most recent work has focused on developing system modelling a... Read More about Capture and reuse of composable failure patterns.

XML document design via GN-DTD (2010)
Journal Article
Zainol, Z., & Wang, B. (2010). XML document design via GN-DTD. European Journal of Scientific Research, 44(2), 314-336

Designing a well-structured XML document is important for the sake of readability and maintainability.
