Greening cloud-enabled big data storage forensics : Syncany as a case study (2017)
Journal Article
Teing, Y., Dehghantanha, A., Raymond Choo, K., Abdullah, M., & Muda, Z. (2019). Greening cloud-enabled big data storage forensics : Syncany as a case study. IEEE Transactions on Sustainable Computing, 4(2), 204-216. https://doi.org/10.1109/TSUSC.2017.2687103

The pervasive nature of cloud-enabled big data storage solutions introduces new challenges in the identification, collection, analysis, preservation and archiving of digital evidences. Investigation of such complex platforms to locate and recover tra... Read More about Greening cloud-enabled big data storage forensics : Syncany as a case study.

Effective geometric restoration of distorted historical documents for large-scale digitization (2017)
Journal Article
Yang, P., Antonacopoulos, A., Clausner, C., Pletschacher, S., & Qi, J. (2017). Effective geometric restoration of distorted historical documents for large-scale digitization. IET Image Processing, 11(10), 841-853. https://doi.org/10.1049/iet-ipr.2016.0973

Due to storage conditions and material’s non-planar shape, geometric distortion of the 2-D content is widely present in scanned document images. Effective geometric restoration of these distorted document images considerably increases character recog...

Mathematical model for ciliary-induced transport in MHD flow of Cu-H2O nanoßuids with magnetic induction (2017)
Journal Article
Akbar, N., Tripathi, D., Khan, Z., & Beg, O. (2017). Mathematical model for ciliary-induced transport in MHD flow of Cu-H2O nanoßuids with magnetic induction. Chinese Journal of Physics, 55(3), 947-962. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cjph.2017.03.005

Motivated by novel developments in surface-modified, nanoscale, magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) biomedical devices, we study theoretically the ciliary induced transport by metachronal
wave propagation in hydromagnetic flow of copper-water nanofluids throu... Read More about Mathematical model for ciliary-induced transport in MHD flow of Cu-H2O nanoßuids with magnetic induction.

MRI brain scan classification using novel 3-D statistical features (2017)
Presentation / Conference
Hasan, A., Meziane, F., Aspin, R., & Jalab, H. (2017, March). MRI brain scan classification using novel 3-D statistical features. Presented at The Second International Conference on Internet of Things, Data and Cloud Computing (ICC 2017), University of Cambridge, United Kingdom

The paper presents an automated algorithm for detecting and classifying magnetic resonance brain slices into normal and abnormal based on a novel three-dimensional modified grey level co-occurrence matrix approach that is used for extracting texture...

Effect of cavities on the behaviour of laterally loaded pile in sand (2017)
Journal Article
Al-Jazaairry, A., & Toma-Sabbagh, T. (2017). Effect of cavities on the behaviour of laterally loaded pile in sand. International Journal of Geotechnical Engineering, 12(6), 567-577. https://doi.org/10.1080/19386362.2017.1305137

This paper sheds the light on the interaction between piles under lateral loading conditions embedded in sandy soils and adjacent to cavities. The experimental study comprised a full laboratory testing programme carried out on small scale piles embed... Read More about Effect of cavities on the behaviour of laterally loaded pile in sand.

Street trees reduce the negative effects of urbanization on birds (2017)
Journal Article
urbanization on birds. PLoS ONE, 12(e01744), https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0174484

The effects of streets on biodiversity is an important aspect of urban ecology, but it has been
neglected worldwide. Several vegetation attributes (e.g. street tree density and diversity)
have important effects on biodiversity and ecological proces... Read More about Street trees reduce the negative effects of urbanization on birds.

Improving competition within Public Private Partnership (PPP) procurement process for infrastructure delivery in Malaysia (2017)
Thesis
Zin Zawawi, M. Improving competition within Public Private Partnership (PPP) procurement process for infrastructure delivery in Malaysia. (Thesis). University of Salford

Public Private Partnerships (PPP) have come to be preferred by governments for infrastructure development over traditional procurement. PPP is seen as the answer to many shortcomings of traditional procurement. Despite the complex nature of a PPP pro...

In this paper, a description of newly developed conceptual and preliminary design approaches is introduced, to design a high altitude long endurance solar powered unmanned aerial vehicle. The conceptual design approach is based on representing the ma... Read More about Conceptual and preliminary design approach of a high altitude, long endurance solar-powered UAV.

Eosinophils are key regulators of perivascular adipose tissue and vascular functionality (2017)
Journal Article
vascular functionality. Scientific reports, 7, 44571. https://doi.org/10.1038/srep44571

Obesity impairs the relaxant capacity of adipose tissue surrounding the vasculature (PVAT) and has
been implicated in resultant obesity-related hypertension and impaired glucose intolerance. Resident
immune cells are thought to regulate adipocyte a... Read More about Eosinophils are key regulators of perivascular adipose tissue and vascular functionality.
