An energy efficient and resource preserving target tracking approach for wireless sensor networks (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Efficient object tracking in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is of importance in many application scenarios such as military and surveillance, health monitoring, etc. In this paper, we propose a target tracking technique from two approaches, dynamic...

Providing students with an easystart to higher education: The emerging role of digital technologies to facilitate students' transitions (2014)
Journal Article
Hamshire, C., & Cullen, W. R. (2014). Providing students with an easystart to higher education: The emerging role of digital technologies to facilitate students' transitions. International Journal of Virtual and Personal Learning Environments, 5(1), https://doi.org/10.4018/ijvple.2014010105

The transition to higher education can be problematic for some students as they adapt to institutional procedures and degree level working at the same time as developing new social networks. To help facilitate these complex transitions institutions a...

Anti-Social Behaviour among Homeless People: Assumptions or Reality? (2014)
Book Chapter
Harding, J., & Irving, A. (2014). Anti-Social Behaviour among Homeless People: Assumptions or Reality?. In Anti-social Behaviour in Britain (155-165). Palgrave Macmillan UK. https://doi.org/10.1057/9781137399311_13

Historically, the visible engagement of homeless people in activities considered to be ‘anti-social’, such as drunkenness and begging, have made them the target of government action on public disorder, engendering antipathy, as much as sympathy, from...

A Combined Technique for Randomisation of a Small Number of Participants with a Variety of Covariates into Treatment and Control Groups in Randomised Controlled Trials (2014)
Journal Article
Naemi, R., Healy, A., Sundar, L., Ramachandran, A., & Chockalingam, N. (2014). A Combined Technique for Randomisation of a Small Number of Participants with a Variety of Covariates into Treatment and Control Groups in Randomised Controlled Trials. Journal of Clinical Trials, 4(1), https://doi.org/10.4172/2167-0870.1000150

Background: Randomised controlled trials are widely favoured in research design as the most rigorous way of determining the effectiveness of a treatment. For assigning a small number of participants who are identified before the start of the randomis...

The consistency of knee kinematic, kinetic, and ground reaction force variables collected during running and cutting manoeuvres (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Introduction: Abnormal biomechanics during sports activities
can lead to increased joint-reaction forces, an increased valgus
angle and increased load at the knee. The majority of studies that
assess lower-limb biomechanics commonly use 3D motion... Read More about The consistency of knee kinematic, kinetic, and ground reaction force variables collected during running and cutting manoeuvres.
