Player as parent, character as child : Understanding avatarial relationships in gamespace
(ACM Press, 2010)
It has been theorised that avatars allow for an embodied interaction between the player and the character they are controlling onscreen. This has been discussed through the avatar being an extension of the player's actions, ...
The bank directors' duties : time for the new enlightenment?
(2010)
In the aftermath of the recent banking crisis, much of the debate on how to secure future financial stability has focused on forms of bespoke banking regulation and corporate governance. This article, however, considers ...
Macroporous Silicon Electrochemical Etching for Gas Diffusion Layers Applications : Effect of Processing Temperature
(2010)
MEMS technology requires low cost techniques to permit large scale fabrication for production. Porous silicon (PS) can be used in different manner to replace standard expensive etching techniques like DRIE (Deep Reactive ...
Single attestation image for a trusted and scalable grid
(2010)
Traditionally, Grid users are forced to trust the Grid platforms, but the users are not always regarded as trustworthy. This trust asymmetry hinders the commercializing of Grid resources. Trusted Grid is proposed to tackle ...
Modelling human memory in robotic companions for personalisation and long-term adaptation in HRI
(IOS Press, 2010)
This paper investigates issues of robot's personalization and long-term adaptation in human-robot interaction (HRI). It demonstrates the design and first technical implementation of a HRI showcase in the Robot House at ...

Should an obsessive-compulsive spectrum grouping of disorders be included in DSM-V?
(2010)
The obsessive-compulsive (OC) spectrum has been discussed in the literature for two decades. Proponents of this concept propose that certain disorders characterized by repetitive thoughts and/or behaviors are related to ...
A theoretical and empirical analysis of three slice-based metrics for cohesion
(2010)
Sound empirical research suggests that we should analyze software metrics from a theoretical and practical perspective. This paper describes the result of an investigation into the respective merits of two cohesion-based ...
Cy5-labeled S100A10 tracer used to identify inhibitors of the protein interaction with annexin A2
(2010)
Protein–protein interactions are increasingly of interest as targets in small-molecule drug discovery. The interaction between the Ca2+- and phospholipid-binding protein Annexin A2 and its binding partner S100A10 has been ...
An excess of star-forming galaxies in the fields of high-redshift QSOs
(2010)
We present submillimetre and mid-infrared imaging observations of five fields centred on quasi-stellar objects (QSOs) at 1.7 < z < 2.8. All 5 QSOs were detected previously at submillimetre wavelengths. At 850 (450) μm we ...
