Context-aware power management
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2007)
With more and more computing devices being deployed in buildings there has been a steady rise in
buildings’ electricity consumption. These devices not only consume electricity but also produce heat,
which increases loading ...
Multi-policy optimization in decentralized autonomic systems
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2010)
Autonomic computing systems are those that are capable of managing themselves based only on highlevel
objectives given by humans. In such systems the details of how to meet their objectives, even in
the face of changing ...
Certainty assessment in informal language
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2015)
This research studied linguistic hedges in informal language style. Hedges are expressions that show a weakened commitment of speakers with respect to what they are saying. This modification in their commitment is made for ...
Sample identification and tracking in biobanks
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2010)
Biobanks or bio-repositories facilitate the storage and maintenance of biological samples and data to support discovery of biomarkers, therapeutic targets, and the underlying causes of diseases. Such discoveries require ...
Generating sentiment lexica : evaluating approaches with genetic algorithms and particle swarm optimization
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2014)
This thesis examines the application of sentiment analysis towards financial news. The primary goal within the field of sentiment analysis is to develop a methodology by which the sentiment or emotional view being expressed ...
Influencing user perception using real-time adaptive abstraction
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2010)
Real-time applications such as games, medical or technical visualisations and urban simulations
can often be highly complex in nature. This can lead to too much visual data
being presented to the user at once, which can ...
The multi-model, metadata driven approach to personalised eLearning services
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2005)
One of the major obstacles in developing quality eLearning content is the substantial
development costs involved and development time required [Marchionini, 95].
Educational providers, such as those in the university ...
Situation-based testing for ubiquitous computing systems
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2011)
A common trend in modern applications is the move towards more mobile, adaptive,
customisable software. The evolution of software from static, invariant tools for
narrow portions of a task to adaptive, open interaction ...
Content and context in conversations : the role of social and situational signals in conversation structure
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2016)
The increasing growth of multimodal material creates, nowadays, a renewed interest in innovative approaches to information extraction from meetings and multiparty conversations; those approaches make use of various multimodal ...
Addressing scalability in Mobile Ad hoc Networks
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2012)
Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs) are wireless networks comprised of nodes which exhibit
varying mobility and availability. Such networks are highly volatile, with network membership
changing unpredictably over time. As ...
