The terrestrial laser scanning revolution in forest ecology (2018)
Journal Article
Danson, F., Disney, M., Gaulton, R., Schaaf, C., & Strahler, A. (2018). The terrestrial laser scanning revolution in forest ecology. Interface Focus, 8(2), 20180001. https://doi.org/10.1098/rsfs.2018.0001

New laser scanning technologies are set to revolutionize the way in which we measure and understand changes in ecosystem structure and function. Forest ecosystems present a particular challenge because of their scale, complexity and structural dynami... Read More about The terrestrial laser scanning revolution in forest ecology.

The trickle-down effect of psycho-social constructs and knowledge deficiencies as organizational barriers to cost performance on highway projects (2018)
Journal Article
Amadi, A., & Higham, A. (2018). The trickle-down effect of psycho-social constructs and knowledge deficiencies as organizational barriers to cost performance on highway projects. Journal of Financial Management of Property and Construction, 23(1), 57-72. https://doi.org/10.1108/JFMPC-03-2017-0009

Purpose The study proffers a theoretical narrative explaining the poor financial performance of public highway agencies in Nigeria. This study critically spotlights seminal works in the literature offering theoretical narratives on the poor fin...

Elicitation of expert knowledge to inform object-based audio rendering to different systems (2018)
Journal Article
rendering to different systems. Journal of the Audio Engineering Society, 66(1/2), 44-59. https://doi.org/10.17743/jaes.2018.0001

Object-based audio presents the opportunity to optimise audio reproduction for different listening scenarios. Vector base amplitude panning (VBAP) is typically used to render object-based scenes. Optimizing this process based on knowledge of the perc... Read More about Elicitation of expert knowledge to inform object-based audio rendering to different systems.

Improved capacity and fairness of massive machine type communications in millimetre wave 5G network (2018)
Journal Article

MDSClone : multidimensional scaling aided clone detection in Internet of Things (2018)
Journal Article
Po-Yen, L., Chia-Mu, Y., Dargahi, T., Mauro, C., & Giuseppe, B. (2018). MDSClone : multidimensional scaling aided clone detection in Internet of Things. IEEE Transactions on Information Forensics and Security, 99, https://doi.org/10.1109/TIFS.2018.2805291

Cloning is a very serious threat in the Internet of Things (IoT), owing to the simplicity for an attacker to gather configuration and authentication credentials from a non-tamper-proof node, and replicate it in the network. In this paper, we propose... Read More about MDSClone : multidimensional scaling aided clone detection in Internet of Things.
