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.

Purpose: The purpose of the study is to investigate and establish the Critical Project Management Success Factors (CPMSF) for the sustainable social (public) housing estates’ delivery/provision in Nigeria. The current housing estate deficit faced in... Read More about A review of critical project management success factors (CPMSF) for sustainable social housing in Nigeria.

Where to nest? Ecological determinants of chimpanzee nest abundance and distribution at the habitat and tree species scale (2014)
Journal Article
Carvalho, J., Meyer, C. F., Vicente, L., & Marques, T. (2015). Where to nest? Ecological determinants of chimpanzee nest abundance and distribution at the habitat and tree species scale. American Journal of Primatology, 77(2), 186-199. https://doi.org/10.1002/ajp.22321

Conversion of forests to anthropogenic land‐uses increasingly subjects chimpanzee populations to
habitat changes and concomitant alterations in the plant resources available to them for nesting and
feeding. Based on nest count surveys conducted dur... Read More about Where to nest? Ecological determinants of chimpanzee nest abundance and distribution at the habitat and tree species scale.

Single interfaces and coupled-waveguide arrays: off-axis nonparaxial analyses (2014)
Presentation / Conference
McCoy, E., Christian, J., McDonald, G., Sanchez-Curto, J., & Chamorro-Posada, P. (2014, September). Single interfaces and coupled-waveguide arrays: off-axis nonparaxial analyses. Presented at 5th European Optical Society Annual Meeting, Berlin, Germany

We report on our most recent results concerning arbitrary-angle spatial soliton
refraction at the interface between dissimilar dielectrics, each of which comprises
both X(3)and X(5) susceptibilities. Attention is also paid to the oblique injectio... Read More about Single interfaces and coupled-waveguide arrays: off-axis nonparaxial analyses.

MRAR : mining multi-relation association rules (2014)
Journal Article
Ramezani, R., Saraee, M., & Nematbakhsh, M. (2014). MRAR : mining multi-relation association rules. Journal of computing and security (Online), 1(2), 133-158

In this paper, we introduce a new class of association rules (ARs) named
“Multi-Relation Association Rules” which in contrast to primitive ARs (that
are usually extracted from multi-relational databases), each rule item consists
of one entity and... Read More about MRAR : mining multi-relation association rules.

A fuzzy method for discovering cost-effective actions from data (2014)
Journal Article
Kalanat, N., Shamsinejadbabaki, P., & Saraee, M. (2014). A fuzzy method for discovering cost-effective actions from data. Journal of Intelligent and Fuzzy Systems, 28(2), 757-765. https://doi.org/10.3233/IFS-141357

Data mining techniques are often confined to the delivery of frequent patterns and stop short of suggesting how to act on these patterns for business decision-making. They require human experts to post-process the discovered patterns manually. Theref... Read More about A fuzzy method for discovering cost-effective actions from data.
