101 mixes : a statistical analysis of mix-variation in a dataset of multi-track music mixes (2015)
Presentation / Conference
Wilson, A., & Fazenda, B. (2015, October). 101 mixes : a statistical analysis of mix-variation in a dataset of multi-track music mixes. Presented at 139th International Convention of the Audio Engineering Society, New York City, New York, USA

The act of mix-engineering is a complex combination of creative and technical processes; analysis is often performed by studying the techniques of a few expert practitioners, qualitatively. We propose to study the actions of a large group of mix-engi... Read More about 101 mixes : a statistical analysis of mix-variation in a dataset of multi-track music mixes.

Application of object-based audio for automated mixing of live football broadcast (2015)
Presentation / Conference
Oldfield, R., Shirley, B., & Satongar, D. (2015, October). Application of object-based audio for automated mixing of live football broadcast. Presented at 139th AES Convention, New York, USA

The challenge of creating a live sound mix for a sports event such as a football/soccer match cannot be underestimated. The mixing engineer needs to constantly raise and lower the levels of the faders corresponding to the pitch-side microphones that...

Superinfection exclusion and the long-term survival of honey bees in Varroa-infested colonies (2015)
Journal Article
Mordecai, G. J., Brettell, L., Martin, S. J., Dixon, D., Jones, I. M., & Schroeder, D. C. (2016). Superinfection exclusion and the long-term survival of honey bees in Varroa-infested colonies. ISME Journal, 10(5), 1182-1191. https://doi.org/10.1038/ismej.2015.186

Over the past 50 years, many millions of European honey bee (Apis mellifera) colonies have died as the ectoparasitic mite, Varroa destructor, has spread around the world. Subsequent studies have indicated that the mite’s association with a group of R... Read More about Superinfection exclusion and the long-term survival of honey bees in Varroa-infested colonies.

Terrestrial laser scanning for plot-scale forest measurement (2015)
Journal Article
Newnham, G., Armston, J., Calders, K., Disney, M., Lovell, J., Schaaf, C., …Danson, F. (2015). Terrestrial laser scanning for plot-scale forest measurement. Current Forestry Reports, 1(4), 239-251. https://doi.org/10.1007/s40725-015-0025-5

Plot-scale measurements have been the foundation for forest surveys and reporting for over 200 years. Through recent integration with airborne and satellite remote sensing, manual measurements of vegetation structure at the plot scale are now the b...

A new role for an old drug: Ambroxol triggers lysosomal exocytosis via pH-dependent Ca2+ release from acidic Ca2+ stores (2015)
Journal Article
Fois, G., Hobi, N., Felder, E., Ziegler, A., Miklavc, P., Walther, P., …Dietl, P. (2015). A new role for an old drug: Ambroxol triggers lysosomal exocytosis via pH-dependent Ca2+ release from acidic Ca2+ stores. Cell Calcium, 58(6), 628-637. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ceca.2015.10.002

Ambroxol (Ax) is a frequently prescribed drug used to facilitate mucociliary clearance, but its mode of action is yet poorly understood. Here we show by X-ray spectroscopy that Ax accumulates in lamellar bodies (LBs), the surfactant storing, secretor...

The role of fire in landscape dynamics : an example of two sediment records from the Rodna Mountains, northern Romanian Carpathians (2015)
Journal Article
Carpathians. CATENA, 137(2), 432-440. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.catena.2015.10.021

Fire is an important disturbance agent worldwide and one of the major causes of geomorphological change. Dependent on its characteristics (size, duration, temperature), fire induces changes in soil stability, modifying infiltration and promoting soi...

Online news videos : the UX of subtitle position (2015)
Presentation / Conference
Crabb, M., Jones, R., Armstrong, M., & Hughes, C. (2015, October). Online news videos : the UX of subtitle position. Presented at 17th International ACM SIGACCESS Conference on Computers & Accessibility, Lisbon, Portugal

Millions of people rely on subtitles when watching video content. The current change in media viewing behaviour involving computers has resulted in a large proportion of people turning to online sources as opposed to regular television for news infor...

Cloud deployment patterns: Migrating a database driven application to the cloud using design patterns (2015)
Conference Proceeding
Adewojo, A., Bass, J., Allison, I., & Hui, K. (2015). Cloud deployment patterns: Migrating a database driven application to the cloud using design patterns.

Cloud computing provides scalable and reliable computing services that can be beneficial to software organizations that intend to migrate their existing or new applications to the cloud. However, migration is potentially complex, so cloud computi... Read More about Cloud deployment patterns: Migrating a database driven application to the cloud using design patterns.

Evaluation of residence time on nitrogen oxides removal in non-thermal plasma reactor (2015)
Journal Article
Talebizadeh, P., Rahimzadeh, H., Babaie, M., Anaghizi, S., Ghomi, H., Ahmadi, G., & Brown, R. (2015). Evaluation of residence time on nitrogen oxides removal in non-thermal plasma reactor. PLoS ONE, 10(10), e0140897. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0140897

Non-thermal plasma (NTP) has been introduced over the last few years as a promising after- treatment system for nitrogen oxides and particulate matter removal from diesel exhaust. NTP technology has not been commercialised as yet, due to its high rat... Read More about Evaluation of residence time on nitrogen oxides removal in non-thermal plasma reactor.

Proteomic identification of prognostic tumour biomarkers, using chemotherapy-induced cancer-associated fibroblasts (2015)
