An energy efficient and resource preserving target tracking approach for wireless sensor networks (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Efficient object tracking in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is of importance in many application scenarios such as military and surveillance, health monitoring, etc. In this paper, we propose a target tracking technique from two approaches, dynamic...

A new methodology for designing energy efficient buildings in neighbourhoods (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Within the frame of the recently launched EU project “Design4Energy” an attempt is being made to develop a design methodology that is able to create energy-efficient buildings within the context of their neighbourhoods. The work presented in this pap... Read More about A new methodology for designing energy efficient buildings in neighbourhoods.
Collaborative environment for energy-efficient buildings at an early design stage (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
This paper provides an approach for creating a collaborative environment for energy efficient buildings highlighting the issues required to be addressed at an early design phase. The paper will discuss a design scenario for a new built and suggest sy... Read More about Collaborative environment for energy-efficient buildings at an early design stage.

Changes in music tempo entrain movement related brain activity (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
The neural mechanisms of music listening and appreciation are not yet completely understood. Based on the apparent relationship between the beats per minute (tempo) of music and the desire to move (for example feet tapping) induced while listening to...

A Hybrid Approach using Ontology Similarity and Fuzzy Logic for Semantic Question Answering (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
One of the challenges in information retrieval is providing accurate answers to a user’s question often expressed as uncertainty words. Most answers are based on a Syntactic approach rather than a Semantic analysis of the query. In this paper our obj...
