Steering via the image in local, distributed and collaborative settings (2007)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Wright, H., & Wood, J. D. Steering via the image in local, distributed and collaborative settings

Computational steering is a valuable mechanism for scientific investigation in which the parameters of a running program can be altered and the results visualized immediately. In a previous paper we put forward an architecture for computational steer... Read More about Steering via the image in local, distributed and collaborative settings.

Smooth piecewise polynomial blending operations for implicit shapes (2007)
Journal Article
Li, Q. (2007). Smooth piecewise polynomial blending operations for implicit shapes. Computer graphics forum : journal of the European Association for Computer Graphics, 26(2), 157-171. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1467-8659.2007.01011.x

In this paper, we present a new set of blending operations for implicitly defined geometric shapes. The proposed shape operators are piecewise polynomial and blending range controllable, and can be constructed to any required degree of smoothness. Th...

An important measure of design quality is the extent to which a circuit design is able to meets its specification in the presence of component parameter variations. Of equal importance is knowing how to improve this capability most effectively. This... Read More about Design of electronic systems based on functional capability.

The algorithm is base... Read More about Downscaling of rain gauge time series by multiplicative beta cascade.

Porphyrin-nanosensor conjugates : novel tools for the study of cellular response to oxidative stress (2007)
Thesis
Josefsen, L. B. Porphyrin-nanosensor conjugates : novel tools for the study of cellular response to oxidative stress. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4217734

The cellular environment is heterogeneous in nature and home to a multitude of species and reactions.
