A phase modulation-based ultrasonic communication system using Variable Structure Control (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Ma, S., Wilkinson, A. J., & Paulson, K. S. A phase modulation-based ultrasonic communication system using Variable Structure Control. Presented at 2010 IEEE 12th International Conference on Communication Technology

Narrow bandwidth transducers used in existing ultrasonic data communication systems are known to be devices with a high Q resonant response and low coupling to both the electrical drive and acoustic output interfaces. These features limit the speed o... Read More about A phase modulation-based ultrasonic communication system using Variable Structure Control.

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.

A translation of state machines to temporal fault trees (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Papadopoulos, Y., Mahmud, N., & Walker, M. (2010, June). A translation of state machines to temporal fault trees. Presented at 2010 International Conference on Dependable Systems and Networks Workshops (DSN-W)

State Machines (SMs) are increasingly being used to gain a better understanding of the failure behaviour of safety-critical systems. In dependability analysis, SMs are translated to other models, such as Generalized Stochastic Petri Nets (GSPNs) or c... Read More about A translation of state machines to temporal fault trees.

Prospective observational study for comparison of use of Short Form-36 dimension scores and patient responses for derivation of preference based Short Form-6D index to calculate of quality adjusted life years (QALYs) for economic analyses in patients with

Cost utility analysis of a randomised control trial of percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA), supervised exercise programme (SEP) and combined treatment (PTA plus SEP) for patients with intermittent claudication (IC) due to femoropopliteal disease (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Mazari, F., Abdul Rahman, H., Khan, J., McCollum, P., Gulati, S., Mehta, T., & Chetter, I. Cost utility analysis of a randomised control trial of percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA), supervised exercise programme (SEP) and combined treatment (PTA plus SEP) for patients with intermittent claudication (IC) due to femoropopliteal disease

Understanding patterns of capability loss among elderly users (2009)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Seidel, D., Crilly, N., Langdon, P. M., Matthews, F. E., Jagger, C., Brayne, C., & Clarkson, P. J. (2009). Understanding patterns of capability loss among elderly users.

The objective of this study was to understand patterns of capability loss among elderly users of products and services. Data from a longitudinal, population-based study were obtained for analysis, which recruited a representative sample of 13,004 peo...
