  • An active approach to guaranteed arrival times based on traffic shaping. 

    CAHILL, VINNY; BOUROCHE, MELANIE (2010)
    To address the goal of providing drivers on highways with guaranteed arrival times, we propose a traffic management system that combines virtual slots with semiautonomous driving to shape traffic and prevent congestion. Two ...
  • Building reliable mobile applications with space-elastic adaptation 

    CAHILL, VINNY; BOUROCHE, MELANIE (2006)
    Mobile applications, for example mobile robots, are playing an increasingly important role in our everyday lives. Since components of these applications share their environment with each other and with humans, they need ...
  • A component-based middleware architecture for sentient computing. 

    CAHILL, VINNY; BOUROCHE, MELANIE (2004)
    The Aithne project is developing a componentbased middleware architecture for sentient computing that provides developers with the possibility of constructing customised middleware to support dierent combinations of ...
  • Coordination of Autonomous Mobile Entities 

    CAHILL, VINNY; BOUROCHE, MELANIE (2006)
    Autonomous mobile entities, for example automated guided vehicles, are playing an increasingly important role in our everyday lives. Since these entities share their environment with each other and with humans, they ...
  • Coordination of safety-critical mobile real-time embedded systems 

    CAHILL, VINNY; BOUROCHE, MELANIE (2006)
    Safety-critical mobile applications running on resource-constrained em- bedded systems will play an increasingly important role in domains such as automotive systems, space, robotics and avionics. Such applications ...
  • Membership service specifications for safety-critical geocast in vehicular networks. 

    CAHILL, VINNY; BOUROCHE, MELANIE (IEEE, 2010)
    Geographic group communication is a promising technique for collaborative driving applications. While oneway, geographic broadcast (geocast) is well-studied in vehicular networks, there has been little work to address ...
  • MoCoA: Customisable middleware for context-aware mobile applications 

    CAHILL, VINNY; BOUROCHE, MELANIE (2006)
    Many programming models have been proposed to facilitate the development of context-aware applications. However, previous work does not offer support for building customised systems and has largely been targeted at a ...
  • A Process Algebraic Description of a Temporal Wireless Network Protocol 

    HUGHES, ARTHUR; BOUROCHE, MELANIE (2011)
    The problem of coordination is central to research in robotics, automatically guided vehicles, autonomous cars, unmanned aerial vehicles, and any other areas in which autonomous agents of any kind operate concurrently. ...
  • Real-Time Coordination of Autonomous Vehicles 

    CAHILL, VINNY; BOUROCHE, MELANIE (IEEE, 2006)
    Autonomous vehicles seem to be a promising approach to both reducing traffic congestion and improving road safety. However, for such vehicles to coexist safely, they will need to coordinate their behaviour to ensure ...
  • Supporting Mobility using Context-Based Reasoning 

    CAHILL, VINNY; BOUROCHE, MELANIE (2006)
    Recent research in mobile computing has given rise to a new class of ubiquitous applications that are deployed in dynamic networks where communication is not reliable. In this paper, we describe how context-based reasoning ...
  • Towards evaluating the benefits of inter-vehicle coordination 

    O' HARA, NIALL; BOUROCHE, MELANIE; MONTEIL, JULIEN; CAHILL, VINNY (2015)
    While vehicle automation has the potential to sig- nificantly improve safety and traffic efficiency, the full potential will only be realised when vehicles start exploiting wireless communication to cooperate ...
  • Unstable Path Routing in Urban-Scale WSN 

    BOUROCHE, MELANIE; CAHILL, VINNY (2012)
    Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) may suffer from congestion at the nodes near the sink, and partition due to the failure of crucial nodes. In urban environments, mobile devices, such as vehicles and smart phones, present ...
