Information Technology (IT) is a key feature of the modern world and a core skill in education. However, the growing use of technology is at an increasing environmental cost. Estimates for a typical Western economy – such as the United Kingdom – are... Read More about Sustainable information technology awareness.

Hardware realization and PID control of multi-degree of freedom articulated robotic arm (2010)
Journal Article
Ali Ajwad, S., Iqbal, U., & Iqbal, J. (2010). Hardware realization and PID control of multi-degree of freedom articulated robotic arm. Mehran University Research Journal of Engineering and Technology, 29(4),

A robotic manipulator is the most important component in an industrial environment for autonomous execution of tasks. Given the repoted fact that a PID (Proportional-Integral-Derivative) will continue to be the main workhorse in the automation sector...

A plant documentation information system design (2010)
Journal Article
Wang, B., & Feicheng, M. (2010). A plant documentation information system design. International journal of computer science & information technology, 2(5), 134-148. https://doi.org/10.5121/ijcsit.2010.2510

Traditional systems do not have the descriptive ability to represent the complex, multi-faceted nature of complex documentation structures such as engineering systems descriptions. This has led to significant information management difficulties in ma... Read More about A plant documentation information system design.

An affordable surround-screen virtual reality display (2010)
Journal Article
Cruz-Neira, C., Reiners, D., & Springer, J. (2010). An affordable surround-screen virtual reality display. Journal of the Society for Information Display, 18(10), 836-843. https://doi.org/10.1889/JSID18.10.836

Building a projection-based virtual reality display is a time, cost, and resource intensive enterprise andmany details contribute to the final display quality. This is especially true for surround-screen displays wheremost of them are one-of-a-kind s... Read More about An affordable surround-screen virtual reality display.

Skeleton cuts-An efficient segmentation method for volume rendering (2010)
Journal Article
Xiang, D., Tian, J., Yang, F., Yang, Q., Zhang, X., Li, Q., & Liu, X. (2011). Skeleton cuts-An efficient segmentation method for volume rendering. IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics, 17(9), 1295-1306. https://doi.org/10.1109/tvcg.2010.239

Volume rendering has long been used as a key technique for volume data visualization, which works by using a transfer function to map color and opacity to each voxel. Many volume rendering approaches proposed so far for voxels classification have bee... Read More about Skeleton cuts-An efficient segmentation method for volume rendering.

Engineering failure analysis and design optimisation with HiP-HOPS (2010)
Journal Article
Papadopoulos, Y., Walker, M., Parker, D., Rüde, E., Hamann, R., Uhlig, A., Grätz, U., & Lien, R. (2011). Engineering failure analysis and design optimisation with HiP-HOPS. Engineering Failure Analysis, 18(2), 590-608. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.engfailanal.2010.09.025

The scale and complexity of computer-based safety critical systems, like those used in the transport and manufacturing industries, pose significant challenges for failure analysis. Over the last decade, research has focused on automating this task. I... Read More about Engineering failure analysis and design optimisation with HiP-HOPS.

Hypercubic storage layout and transforms in arbitrary dimensions using GPUs and CUDA (2010)
Journal Article
Hawick, K. A., & Playne, D. P. (2011). Hypercubic storage layout and transforms in arbitrary dimensions using GPUs and CUDA. Concurrency and Computation: Practice and Experience, 23(10), 1027-1050. https://doi.org/10.1002/cpe.1628

Many simulations in the physical sciences are expressed in terms of rectilinear arrays of variables. It is attractive to develop such simulations for use in 1-, 2-, 3- or arbitrary physical dimensions and also in a manner that supports exploitation o...

Graph component labelling, which is a subset of the general graph colouring problem, is a computationally expensive operation that is of importance in many applications and simulations. A number of data-parallel algorithmic variations to the componen... Read More about Parallel graph component labelling with GPUs and CUDA.

GN-DTD: Graphical notation for describing XML documents (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Zainol, Z., & Wang, B. (2010, April). GN-DTD: Graphical notation for describing XML documents. Presented at 2nd International Conference on Advances in Databases, Knowledge, and Data Applications, DBKDA 2010

This paper presents a graphical approach to model XML documents based on a Data Type Documentation called Graphical Notations-Data Type Documentation (GN-DTD). GN-DTD allows us to capture syntax and semantic of XML documents in a simple way but preci... Read More about GN-DTD: Graphical notation for describing XML documents.
