Investigation of strategy dynamics using prisoner’s dilemma problem (2004)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

The paper investigates games strategies on the basis of
experiments with Prisoner’s Dilemma problem. The
objective is to determine which strategies have the best
chance of winning. Although some strategies, such as tit-for-
tat, emerge as better... Read More about Investigation of strategy dynamics using prisoner’s dilemma problem.

Post-implementation analysis on Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems has drawn attention to many
structural shortcomings. Yet, no framework exists to compare the different structural features of the ERP system. This paper
develops a framework... Read More about Before you invest: An illustrated framework to compare conceptual designs for an enterprise information system.

Propagation of surface plasmon polaritons on the boundary of a metal and a gain medium (2004)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

We show that surface plasmon polariton propagation on a metal surface adjacent to a gain medium can compensate for the metallic loss, thereby increasing the propagation length. Rigorous and numerical finite element studies of various interface geomet... Read More about Propagation of surface plasmon polaritons on the boundary of a metal and a gain medium.

Nanophotonics for optoelectronic system integration (2004)

The described approach includes design, modeling and simulations of example components and devices, their nanofabric... Read More about Nanophotonics for optoelectronic system integration.

Excitation and direct imaging of surface plasmon polariton modes in the near-infrared (2004)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This paper describes techniques for the simultaneous excitation and imaging of various SPP modes in a 2-D periodic hole array, and show that these features are consistent with the dispersion relation for SPPs on a periodically modulated surface.

A case of red herrings: Englishness in the poetry of Philip Larkin and Ted Hughes (2004)
Book Chapter

Alvarez’s introduction to The New Poetry – written in 1960 - has often been read as polarising the work of Larkin and Hughes. Such a critical stance cannot account for the connections between the writers in terms of their occasional engagement with e...

Impact of oilseed rape expressing the insecticidal serine protease inhibitor, mustard trypsin inhibitor-2 on the beneficial predator Pterostichus madidus (2004)
Journal Article
Ferry, N., Jouanin, L., Ceci, L., Mulligan, E., Emami, K., Gatehouse, J., & Gatehouse, A. (2005). Impact of oilseed rape expressing the insecticidal serine protease inhibitor, mustard trypsin inhibitor-2 on the beneficial predator Pterostichus madidus. Molecular Ecology, 14(1), 337-349. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-294X.2004.02381.x

Insect-resistant transgenic plants have been suggested to have deleterious effects on beneficial predators feeding on crop pests, through transmission of the transgene product by the pest to the predator. To test this hypothesis, effects of oilseed r...

A knowledge based system for valuing variations in civil engineering works: a user centred approach (2004)
Journal Article
Sutrisna, M., Proverbs, D., Potts, K., & Buckley, K. (2004). A knowledge based system for valuing variations in civil engineering works: a user centred approach

There has been much evidence that valuing variations in construction projects can lead to conflicts and disputes leading to loss of time, efficiency, and productivity. One of the reasons for these conflicts and disputes concerns the subjectivity of t...
