Autonomous geographies in the anti-US military base movements (2011)
Journal Article
Fois, F., & Paragano, D. (2011). Autonomous geographies in the anti-US military base movements. Peace Review, 23(3), 313-319. https://doi.org/10.1080/10402659.2011.596055

The construction of a military base in a foreign country paints a portrait
of international relationships based on a top-down decision-making process.
Despite the huge academic and political debate about the importance of a participative
approach... Read More about Autonomous geographies in the anti-US military base movements.

Changing Computing Curricula in African Universities: Evaluating Progress and Challenges via Design-Reality Gap Analysis (2011)
Journal Article
Bass, J., & Heeks, R. (2011). Changing Computing Curricula in African Universities: Evaluating Progress and Challenges via Design-Reality Gap Analysis. The Electronic Journal of Information Systems in Developing Countries, 48(1), 1-39. https://doi.org/10.1002/j.1681-4835.2011.tb00341.x

Information and communication technologies (ICTs) are diffusing rapidly into all African nations. Effective use of the new technology requires a step-change in local skill levels; including a step-change in ICT-related university education. Part of t...

Third-order nonlinearity in silicon beyond 2350 nm (2011)
Journal Article

Measurement of the Kerr nonlinearity in silicon is reported in the 2350 nm to 2750 nm wavelength range, where three-photon absorption effect is present. The measurements confirm that the Kerr interaction strength is comparable to that in the near... Read More about Third-order nonlinearity in silicon beyond 2350 nm.

Modeling batch annealing process using data mining techniques for cold rolled steel sheets (2011)
Presentation / Conference
Saraee, M., Moghimi, M., & Bagheri, A. (2011, August). Modeling batch annealing process using data mining techniques for cold rolled steel sheets. Presented at The 17th Annual ACM SIGKDD Conference on Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining, San Diego

The annealing process is one of the important operations in production of cold rolled steel sheets, which significantly influences the final product quality of cold rolling mills. In this process, cold rolled coils are heated slowly to a desired temp... Read More about Modeling batch annealing process using data mining techniques for cold rolled steel sheets.

Examination of the online reputation systems problems and provide solution (2011)
Presentation / Conference
Ehghaghi Kakoli, Z., Nematbakhsh, M., & Saraee, M. (2011, August). Examination of the online reputation systems problems and provide solution. Presented at 13th IEEE Joint International Computer Science and Information Technology Conference (JICSIT 2011), Chongqing, China

Electronic commerce communities are considered to
be communities that provide opportunities for the sellers on
the one hand and include threats for the purchasers on the
other hand. One of the ways to reduce such threats in these
open communities... Read More about Examination of the online reputation systems problems and provide solution.

Intracellular mapping with SERS-encoded gold nanostars (2011)
Journal Article
Rodríguez-Lorenzo, L., Krpetic, Z., Barbosa, S., Alvarez-Puebla, R., Liz-Marzán, L., Prior, I., & Brust, M. (2011). Intracellular mapping with SERS-encoded gold nanostars. Integrative Biology, 3(9), 922-926. https://doi.org/10.1039/C1IB00029B

Here we report on the design, synthesis and application of small, highly bright, star-shaped SERS encoded single nanoparticles with the ability of providing an optical signal upon excitation with near infrared light. These particles are colloidally s... Read More about Intracellular mapping with SERS-encoded gold nanostars.

Spatial solitons and instabilities in two-colour Helmholtz light fields (2011)
Presentation / Conference
Bostock, C., Christian, J., & Mcdonald, G. (2011, August). Spatial solitons and instabilities in two-colour Helmholtz light fields. Presented at First Annual Student Conference on Complexity Science, Winchester University, UK

Two-colour optical beams comprise a pair of light waves at two well-separated temporal frequencies, and which are coupled through system nonlinearity (e.g., the Kerr-type response in the host material of a planar waveguide). In addition to their fund... Read More about Spatial solitons and instabilities in two-colour Helmholtz light fields.
