On the feasibility of attribute-based encryption on Internet of Things devices (2016)
Journal Article
AMbrosin, M., Anzanpour, A., Conti, M., Dargahi, T., Rahimi Moosavi, S., Rahmani, A., & Liljeberg, P. (2016). On the feasibility of attribute-based encryption on Internet of Things devices. IEEE Micro, 36(6), 25-35. https://doi.org/10.1109/MM.2016.101

Attribute-based encryption (ABE) could be an effective cryptographic tool for the secure management of Internet of Things (IoT) devices, but its feasibility in the IoT has been under-investigated thus far. This article explores such feasibility for... Read More about On the feasibility of attribute-based encryption on Internet of Things devices.

Energy structure of CdSe/CdTe type II colloidal quantum dots—Do phonon bottlenecks remain for thick shells? (2016)
Journal Article
Smith, C., Tyrrell, E., Leontiadou, M., Miloszewski, J., Walsh, T., Cadirci, M., …Tomic, S. (2016). Energy structure of CdSe/CdTe type II colloidal quantum dots—Do phonon bottlenecks remain for thick shells?. Solar Energy Materials and Solar Cells, 158(2), 160-167. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.solmat.2015.12.015

The electronic structures of CdSe/CdTe type II colloidal quantum dots are predicted using a model based on k·pk·p theory and the many-particle configuration interaction method. The separation of energy levels in the conduction band is examined and us...

Toxicological and analytical assessment of e-cigarette refill components on airway epithelia (2016)
Journal Article
Singh, J., Luquet, E., Smith, D., Potgieter, H., & Ragazzon, P. (2016). Toxicological and analytical assessment of e-cigarette refill components on airway epithelia. Science Progress, 99(4), 351-398. https://doi.org/10.3184/003685016X14773090197706

There are over 2.6 million users of e-cigarettes in the United Kingdom alone as they have been promoted as safer alternative to traditional cigarettes. The addition of flavours and aromas has also proven to be popular with younger generations. In thi...

Acoustic orientation in the great crested newt (Triturus cristatus) (2016)
Journal Article
Madden, N., & Jehle, R. (2016). Acoustic orientation in the great crested newt (Triturus cristatus). Amphibia-Reptilia, 38(1), 57-65. https://doi.org/10.1163/15685381-00003083

We carried out laboratory experiments to determine whether orientation during migration in the great crested newt (Triturus cristatus) is influenced by acoustic information. Newts retrieved during the aquatic breeding seasons (adults), as well as dur... Read More about Acoustic orientation in the great crested newt (Triturus cristatus).

Experimental Study on the Optimization of Dielectric Barrier Discharge Reactor for NOx Treatment (2016)
Journal Article
