    • Effects of social structure on establishing lexical conventions in a computational model of task-oriented primeval dialogue 

      Bachwerk, Martin (Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2013)
      In the field of language evolution, the only way of obtaining empirical data for most of its parts is with the help of computational models and simulations. As a consequence, a large number of different modelling approaches ...

    • Enforcing cooperation between nodes in mobile ad hoc networks 

      Othman, Nor Effendy (Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2013)
      Traditional infrastructure-based networks are formed around an infrastructure of static, dedicated components that connect the individual end points such as desktop computers and servers. The exponential rise in the number ...

    • An Evaluation of AOP for Java-based Real-time Systems Development 

      Tsang, Shiu Lun (Trinity College Dublin. Department of Computer Science, 2003-09)
      Advances in programming language have improved the software developer?s ability to achieve separation of concerns (SOC). Although object-oriented (OO) technology offers greater ability than previous language paradigms ...

    • Evaluation of Aspect-Oriented Software Development for Distributed Systems 

      Driver, Cormac (Trinity College Dublin. Department of Computer Science, 2002-09)
      Problems relating to the issue of modularity result in the underperformance of the object-oriented software development paradigm. Aspect-oriented software development (AOSD) is a new technology for the separation of ...

    • An Evaluation of Caching Strategies for Clustered Web Servers 

      Larkin, Thomas (Trinity College Dublin. Department of Computer Science, 2001-09)
      The exponential growth of the Internet and the increasing demands put upon Web servers has created the need for a scalable clustered Web servers. In this paper we attempt to analyse the important issues facing the ...

    • An Evaluation of XML Associated Vulnerabilities in the Xerces-C++ Parser 

      O'Donnell, John (Trinity College Dublin. Department of Computer Science, 2005-09)
      One of the key concerns to the adoption of XML as the de facto standard for information representation is security. This has clear concerns for the continued success ofWeb Services as many elements of Web Services are ...

    • Event-Based Middleware for Collaborative Ad Hoc Applications 

      MEIER, RENE (University of Dublin, Trinity College. Department of Computer Science, 2003-09)
      Middleware supporting event-based communication is widely recognised as being well suited to interconnecting the components of mobile applications since it naturally accommodates a dynamically changing population of ...

    • Example-Based Machine Translation: An Adaptation-Guided Retrieval Approach 

      Collins, Brona (University of Dublin, Trinity College. Department of Computer Science, 1999-09)
      Translation can be viewed as a problem-solving process where a source language text is transformed into its target language equivalent. A machine translation system, solving the problem from first-principles, requires more ...
