An assessment of new product development in the Irish pharmaceutical industry
Enright, S. and Cormican, K (2003)In today's competitive drug development environment, Irish pharmaceutical companies are moving towards more knowledge base activities. These companies must focus on new product development (NPD) firstly to remain competitive ... -
Assessment of Tc-99 monitoring within the western Irish Sea using a numerical model
Olbert, Agnieszka Indiana; Hartnett, Michael; Dabrowski, Tomasz (Elsevier ScienceDirect, 2010-05-26)Water circulation patterns and associated material transport within a highly dynamic system such as the Irish Sea are complex phenomena. Although Tc-99 monitoring programme undertaken by the Radiological Protection Institute ... -
Auditing best practice for effective product innovation management
Cormican, Kathryn; O'Sullivan, David (Science Direct, 2004-10)Over the past number of years, researchers and industrialists have recognised the need for and the importance of developing approaches to enhance competitive advantage in new product development. However, the product ... -
The Automatic Morphological Description and Classification of Archaeological Monuments from Vertical Aerial Photographs.
Redfern, Sam; Lyons, Gerard J.; Redfern, R. M. (OESI/IMVIP, 1998)For most of this century, aerial photography has been an important technique for the discovery, recording and analysis of archaeological sites. For many regions there are vast archives of aerial photographs available; ... -
Autonomous hvac control, a reinforcement learning approach
Barrett, Enda; Linder, Stephen (Springer Verlag, 2015-08-29)Abstract—Recent high profile developments of autonomous learning thermostats by companies such as Nest Labs and Honeywell have brought to the fore the possibility of ever greater numbers of intelligent devices permeating ... -
Axial load behaviour of a driven cast in situ pile in sand
Flynn, Kevin N.; McCabe, Bryan A.; Egan, Derek (GeoEngineer, 2013)[No abstract available] -
Barriers to FLOSS in SMEs: the lack of knowledge and skills
Van Leeuwen, Manon; Cormican, Kathryn (IOS Press, 2005)While open source is becoming a topic of mainstream business, the level of awareness and depth of understanding of the open source paradigm still varies considerably and represents a significant barrier to broader adoption. ... -
Beyond stream processing??? A distributed vision architecture for the Internet of Things
Corcoran, Peter (IEEE, 2016)An ‘edge-based’ image processing architecture for the internet of things (IoT) is devised, drawing on the existing image processing pipelines that are implemented in today’s imaging modules in digital cameras and ... -
Biaxial loading of offshore monopiles: numerical modelling
Sheil, Brian B.; McCabe, Bryan A. (American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016-05-18)In this study, finite-element (FE) modeling was used to examine the influence of biaxial lateral loading of a monopile foundation. Two different soil models were adopted to investigate the influence of state-dependent and ... -
Biometric technology and smartphones: a consideration of the practicalities of a broad adoption of biometrics and the likely impacts
Corcoran, Peter; Costache, Claudia (IEEE, 2016-04)The Widespread Global Adoption of Smartphones across all demographics and the rapid commoditization of the technology to the point at which an entry-level device can be sold profitably for less than US$100 suggest that we ... -
Biometrics and Consumer Electronics: A Brave New World or the Road to Dystopia?[Soapbox]
Corcoran, Peter M. (IEEE, 2013-04)Biometric systems confirm a person's identity by extracting and comparing patterns in their physical characteristics against computer records of those patterns. Examples include scans of the face, iris, or retina; measurements ... -
Biomodels of bone: a review
Lohfeld, Stefan; Barron, Valerie; McHugh, Peter (Springer, 2005)In this paper, a definition of a biomodel is presented, based on which different specific types of biomodels are identified, viz., virtual biomodels, computational biomodels, and physical biomodels. The paper then focuses ... -

Business Modelling to Support the Development of Integrated Process Support Systems in the Extended Enterprise
Lyons, Gerard J.; Dunican, Enda (1999)Recent years have witnessed rapid advances in the areas of Business Process Reengineering(BPR) and Software Engineering. In order for BPR to work, successful deployment of Information Technology is imperative, with the ... -
Carbonation in stabilised peat: an accelerated pilot study
Duggan, Alan R.; McCabe, Bryan A.; Clifford, Eoghan; Goggins, Jamie (ICE Institution of Civil Engineers, 2015)Due to stringent environmental regulations, embodied carbon estimates are being used increasingly to assess the environmental impact of major building and infrastructure projects, including their geotechnical components. ... -
CEBus network access via the world-wide-web
Corcoran, Peter; Desbonnet, Joe (IEEE, 1996)Several methods of providing access to CEBus networks using the World Wide Web are described. Details of a working demonstration system are given. The system software incorporates CGI-Bin scripts and Java applets ... -
