An open environment for the specification, design and code generation of control algorithms (1998)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Proposals for an open, yet integrated, design environment to ease the design of complex process control systems are presented. A hierarchical approach to the allocation of computing resources is typically used in process control systems. The lower en...

Environmental enrichment for Australian mammals (1998)
Journal Article
Murray, A., Waran, N., & Young, R. (1998). Environmental enrichment for Australian mammals. Animal Welfare Journal, 7(4), 415-425. https://doi.org/10.1017/S0962728600020959

Many of Australia's nocturnal mammals are rare or endangered in the wild. The behavioural integrity of captive populations of endangered species can be maintained through the application of environmental enrichment techniques. This study investigated...

Pattern discovery in time-oriented data (1998)
Presentation / Conference
Saraee, M., Theodoulidis, B., & Koundourakis, G. (1998, November). Pattern discovery in time-oriented data. Presented at International Conference on Advances in Pattern Recognition, Plymouth, England

We present a data mining system, EasyMiner which has been developed for interactive mining
of interesting patterns in time-oriented databases. This system implements a wide spectrum of
data mining functions, including generalisation, characterisati... Read More about Pattern discovery in time-oriented data.

Evolutionary design of digital trajectory-tracking controllers for robotic manipulators (1998)
Thesis
Allaoui, C. Evolutionary design of digital trajectory-tracking controllers for robotic manipulators. (Thesis). University of Salford

The design of digital trajectory-tracking controllers for robotic manipulators is a challenging task, since such manipulators are multivariable non-linear plants. In addition, in many applications of robotic manipulators, it is required that very hig... Read More about Evolutionary design of digital trajectory-tracking controllers for robotic manipulators.

EasyMiner: data mining in medical databases (1998)
