A framework for dynamic heterogeneous information networks change discovery based on knowledge engineering and data mining methods (2021)
Thesis
Umer, S. A framework for dynamic heterogeneous information networks change discovery based on knowledge engineering and data mining methods. (Thesis). University of Salford

Information Networks are collections of data structures that are used to model interactions in social and living phenomena. They can be either homogeneous or heterogeneous and static or dynamic depending upon the type and nature of relations between...

Exploring the effects of consumers’ trust : a predictive model for satisfying buyers’ expectations based on sellers’ behaviour in the marketplace (2019)
Thesis
AlSheikh, S. Exploring the effects of consumers’ trust : a predictive model for satisfying buyers’ expectations based on sellers’ behaviour in the marketplace. (Thesis). University of Salford

In recent years, Consumer-to-Consumer (C2C) marketplaces have become very popular among Internet users. However, compared to traditional Business-to-Consumer (B2C) stores, most modern C2C marketplaces are reported to be associated with stronger neg...

Coupling ontology with reference architectures to facilitate the instantiation process of software system architectures (2019)
Thesis
Al-Bayati, Z. (in press). Coupling ontology with reference architectures to facilitate the instantiation process of software system architectures. (Thesis). University of Salford

A reference architecture can be defined as a generic architecture for a set of information systems that is used as a basis to a software system architecture. It provides the foundation for the design of concrete architectures in terms of architectura...

An automated system for the classification and segmentation of brain tumours in MRI images based on the modified grey level co-occurrence matrix (2017)
Thesis
Hasan, A. An automated system for the classification and segmentation of brain tumours in MRI images based on the modified grey level co-occurrence matrix. (Thesis). University of Salford

The development of an automated system for the classification and segmentation of brain tumours in MRI scans remains challenging due to high variability and complexity of the brain tumours. Visual examination of MRI scans to diagnose brain tumours is... Read More about An automated system for the classification and segmentation of brain tumours in MRI images based on the modified grey level co-occurrence matrix.

UML QoS profile exploration for the specifications of a generic QoS metamodel for designing and developing good quality web services (2010)
Thesis
Rahman, W. UML QoS profile exploration for the specifications of a generic QoS metamodel for designing and developing good quality web services. (Thesis). Salford : University of Salford

The work developed and reported in this thesis aims at contributing to research related to the Quality of Service (QoS) for the web services field. More specifically, this work investigates the possibility of using the Unified Modeling Language (...

A Rules Based System for Named Entity Recognition in Modern Standard Arabic (2009)
Thesis
Elsebai, A. A Rules Based System for Named Entity Recognition in Modern Standard Arabic. (Thesis). University of Salford

The amount of textual information available electronically has made it difficult for many users to find and access the right information within acceptable time. Research communities in the natural language processing (NLP) field are developing tool... Read More about A Rules Based System for Named Entity Recognition in Modern Standard Arabic.

An information framework for merchant trust in electronic commerce (Business to Consumer Segment) (2008)
Thesis
Kasiran, M. An information framework for merchant trust in electronic commerce (Business to Consumer Segment). (Thesis). University of Salford

The primary purpose of this research is to investigate the information requirements that need to be available on merchants' websites. This information is important to facilitate the establishment of initial trust from potential consumers towards the...

Thickness estimation, automated classification and novelty detection in ultrasound images of the plantar fascia tissues
Thesis
Boussouar, A. (in press). Thickness estimation, automated classification and novelty detection in ultrasound images of the plantar fascia tissues. (Thesis). University of Salford

The plantar fascia (PF) tissue plays an important role in the movement and the stability of the foot during walking and running. Thus it is possible for the overuse and the associated medical problems to cause injuries and some severe common disease...

An analytical study of the ethical problems in India’s digital service sector and their impact on attrition in the IT industry
Thesis
More, S. (in press). An analytical study of the ethical problems in India’s digital service sector and their impact on attrition in the IT industry. (Thesis). University of Salford

This research aims to test the hypothesis that ethical problems are causing high staff attrition rates within the digital service sector (DSS) in India. It is also shown that ethical problems affect other factors in DSS, such as trust, decision-makin...
