M Dwarfs from the SDSS, 2MASS and WISE Surveys: Identification, Characterisation and Unresolved Ultracool Companionship
(2016-09-01)The aim of this thesis is to use a cross-match between WISE, 2MASS and SDSS to identify a large sample of M dwarfs. Through the careful characterisation and quality control of these M dwarfs I aim to identify rare systems ... -
M. William Shak-speare, his true chronicle historie of the life and death of King Lear and his three daughters
(Prentice Hall Trade, 1995-04-01)This series, the "Shakespearean Originals," seeks to give the reader of modern drama examples of 16th and 17th-century playtexts in a form that are published in as close as mirror-image form as possible to the original ... -
M100 and NGC 6951: Morphological Clues to Central Dynamics
(Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 1996)High-resolution optical and NIR observations are used to constrain a dynamical model of the circumnuclear star forming (SF) region in the barred galaxy M100 (NGC 4321). Small leading arms observed in our K-band image of ... -

MAC Protocol Design for the Support of DBA in OFDMA-PON Networks
(2011-06)Original MAC frame formats have been developed to provide recommendations for new protocol designs in OFDMA-PONs. The portrayed scalability of the Dynamic Subcarrier Allocation (DScA) protocol is complemented by the ... -
MAC protocol requirements for OFDMA-PONs
(IEEE, 2012)This paper provides specifications of the parameters defining the design of medium access control (MAC) protocols for orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) passive optical networks (PONs). A dynamic bandwidth ... -
Machinability of Bio-composites: Challenges and Prospects
(2nd Conference_FLOWER Project, Advanced Biobased Materials and Composites for Engineering Applications, University of Portsmouth, England, UK, 2020-09-17)The exceptional inherent properties of natural fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) composite materials and their bio-based hybrid counterparts have contributed to extensive engineering applications. These properties include, ... -
Machinability of natural-fibre-reinforced polymer composites: Convectional vs ultrasonically-assisted machining
(2019-01-31)Natural-fibre-reinforced polymer (NFRP) composites are becoming a viable alternative to synthetic fibre based composites in many industrial applications. Machining is often necessary to facilitate assembly of parts in a ... -
Machine code and metaphysics : a perspective on software engineering
(2016-01)A major, but too-little-considered problem for Software Engineering (SE) is a lack of consensus concerning Computer Science (CS) and how this relates to developing unpredictable computing technology. We consider some ... -
Machine learning and computational design
(2020-05)The use of computers in design is substantially different today from what it was only 30 years ago, and light-years ahead of how things were designed before computers entered the scene 60 years ago. This article discusses ... -
A machine learning approach for predicting critical factors determining adoption of off-site construction in Nigeria
(2022-12-12)Purpose: Several factors influence OSC adoption, but extant literature did not articulate the dominant barriers or drivers influencing adoption. Therefore, this research has not only ventured into analyzing the core ... -
A machine learning approach to mapping baryons on to dark matter haloes using the EAGLE and C-EAGLE simulations
(2022-02-01)High-resolution cosmological hydrodynamic simulations are currently limited to relatively small volumes due to their computational expense. However, much larger volumes are required to probe rare, overdense environments, ... -
Machine Learning Approaches for Traffic Flow Forecasting
(2019-10-23)Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) as a field has emerged quite rapidly in the recent years. A competitive solution coupled with big data gathered for ITS applications needs the latest AI to drive the ITS for the smart ... -
Machine Learning Detects Multiplicity of the First Stars in Stellar Archaeology Data
(2023-03-22)In unveiling the nature of the first stars, the main astronomical clue is the elemental compositions of the second generation of stars, observed as extremely metal-poor (EMP) stars, in the Milky Way. However, no observational ... -
Machine learning for energy performance prediction at the design stage of buildings
(2022-02-28)The substantial amount of energy consumption in buildings and the associated adverse effects prompts the importance of understanding building energy efficiency. Developing an energy prediction model with high accuracy is ... -
A machine-learning method for identifying multi-wavelength counterparts of submillimeter galaxies : training and testing using AS2UDS and ALESS
(2018-07-27)We describe the application of supervised machine-learning algorithms to identify the likely multiwavelength counterparts to submillimeter sources detected in panoramic, single-dish submillimeter surveys. As a training ... -
