Predicting the elastic properties of selective laser sintered PCL/b-TCP bone scaffold materials using computational modelling.
(Springer, 2013)Abstract This study assesses the ability of finite element (FE) models to capture the mechanical behaviour of sintered orthopaedic scaffold materials. Individual scaffold struts were fabricated from a 50:50 wt% ... -
Preferential tendon stem cell response to growth factor supplementation.
(Wiley, 2014)Tendon injuries are increasingly prevalent around the world, accounting for more than 100 000 new clinical cases/year in the USA alone. Cell-based therapies have been proposed as a therapeutic strategy, with recent data ... -
Preparation and characterization of tissue surrogates rich in extracellular matrix using the principles of macromolecular crowding
(Humana Press, 2019-03)Tissue engineering by self-assembly allows for the fabrication of living tissue surrogates by taking advantage of the cell's inherent ability to produce and deposit tissue-specific extracellular matrix. However, the long ... -
Presenting data for team-based decision-making in agile information systems projects
(2009)Although there are a number of purported benefits of agile systems development methods over traditional forms, many in the Information Systems Development (ISD) community highlight the difficulties that the dynamic, turbulent ... -
Presenting the un-presentable: how to display data for decision making
(2008-10-20)A concern with computer systems is how best to present onscreen data. This can be particularly problematic for large quantities of data and in contexts of organisational and managerial decision making. Another concern ... -
Previewing Semantic Web Pipes
(Springer, 2008)In this demo we present a first implementation of Semantic Web Pipes, a powerful tool to build RDF-based mashups. Semantic Web pipes are defined in XML and when executed they fetch RDF graphs on the Web, operate on them, ... -
Privacy, security and policies: A review of problems and solutions with semantic web technologies
(IOS Press, 2018)Semantic Web technologies aim to simplify the distribution, sharing and exploitation of information and knowledge, across multiple distributed actors on the Web. As with all technologies that manipulate information, there ... -
Pro-B cells propagated in stromal cell-free cultures reconstitute functional B-cell compartments in immunodeficient mice
(Wiley, 2016-12-28)Up to now long-term in vitro growth of pro-B cells was thought to require stromal cells. However, here we show that fetal liver (FL) and bone marrow (BM) derived pro-B cells can be propagated long-term in stromal cell-free ... -
Process Mediation Based on Triple Space Computing
(Springer, 2008)Web services are inherently heterogeneous at both data and behavioral levels because of the nature of the Web, which is the main obstacle to the usability of Web services. The heterogeneity at a behavioral level is generally ... -
Processing ontology alignments with SPARQL
(IEEE, 2008)Solving problems raised by heterogeneous ontologies can be achieved by matching the ontologies and processing the resulting alignments. This is typical of data mediation in which the data must be translated from one ... -
Processing ontology alignments with SPARQL

Produce and Consume Linked Data with Drupal!
(Springer, 2009)Currently a large number of Web sites are driven by Content Management Systems (CMS) which manage textual and multimedia content but also - inherently - carry valuable information about a site¿s structure and content ... -
Production and characterization of chemically cross-linked collagen scaffolds
(Humana Press, 2019-03-07)Chemical cross-linking of collagen-based devices is used as a means of increasing the mechanical stability and control the degradation rate upon implantation. Herein, we describe techniques to produce cross-linked with ... -
Progress toward the clinical application of mesenchymal stromal cells and other disease-modulating regenerative therapies
(American Society of Nephrology, 2021-01-27)Drawing from basic knowledge of stem cell biology, embryonic development, wound healing and aging, regenerative medicine seeks to develop therapeutic strategies that complement or replace conventional treatments by actively ... -
Project failure en masse: a study of loose budgetary control in ISD projects
(Palgrave Macmillan, 2010-05-18)This paper investigates the tightness of budgetary control over projects in a large systems development multinational. This represents a case of extreme information systems development (ISD) failure en masse, where all but ... -
Project Management in Information Systems Development
(2009)Although there is a growing body of literature concerned with the adoption of agile software development within a large organization, there is still very little in terms of empirical research of practice. This research ... -
Project managers - do they need to be certified?
(Springer, 2009-12-16)The purpose of this study is to examine the drivers behind the certification of project managers in Irish organisations, to identify the benefits and drawbacks of project management certification and to determine whether ... -
Prolonged impunity as a continuing situation of torture or ill-treatment? Applying a dignity lens to so-called historical cases
(Springer and T.M.C Asser Press, 2019-03-28)Around the world many survivors of so-called historical abuses persist in seeking truth and justice decades after rights violations have been perpetrated. Recognising that prolonged impunity may cause victims suffering ... -
