Sound design for nonlinear artefacts: models for sound design in the transformation between linear and nonlinear artefacts.
… sound design for both linear and nonlinear artefacts, within the fields of fine art and urban design. It recounts the research, the concepts and the themes that inform the works in the portfolio. The main subject matter is the difference between linear and nonlinear artefacts and how this …

Resonant Frequency: Artefacts in Response to Time
… How can Design move from Green to Good? Three artefacts have been designed. These artefacts respond to a context. Context, in this body of work, is time. Time as context is about knowing the before now, applying it to the now, to positively affect the after now. The artefacts respond to three …

Proposals for the Funeral Artefacts for Six Women
This research explores, through practice, the capacity of fine art to embody and illuminate the meanings of ageing, and anticipation of death, of a number of women in their later middle years. The methodology incorporates some elements associated with interpretative sociology together with a …

Electronic Long-Term Archiving of Complex Textual Artefacts
… the philological reconstruction of textual artefacts and their gestation. Such reconstruction depends on a format which natively supports non-linear text. It should also provide native support for multiple hierarchies over the data. In addition, the format should ideally enable different …

Subjective Assessment of Image Compression Artefacts on Stereoscopic Display
… assessment of the visibility of compression artefacts of two sets of images with two codecs viewed on a stereoscopic display. For one set of images the result shows that artefacts can be silenced in some stereo images relative to 2D while testing with the other set of images was inconclusive. …

Analytical studies of the degradation of cellulose nitrate artefacts
The deterioration of cellulose nitrate artefacts in museum and art collections is a complex problem facing conservators and conservation scientists. This study has looked at several aspects of the degradation by analysing artefacts and model samples. Initial work concentrated on a survey of a …

A Model Driven Approach for Refactoring Heterogeneous Software Artefacts
Refactoring is the process of transforming a software system to improve its overall structure while preserving its observable behaviour. Refactoring engines are normally used to perform these transformations for efficiency and in order to avoid introducing behavioural changes into the program due …

Machine learning approaches for malware classification based on hybrid artefacts
Malware could be developed and transformed into various forms to deceive users and evade antivirus and security endpoint detection. Furthermore, if one machine in the network is compromised, it could be used for lateral movement--when malware spreads stealthily without sending an alarm to …

An Architecture for Forensic Analysis of Windows System Generated Artefacts
… forensic investigators to analyse software artefacts to help reconstruct possible scenarios for activity on a particular computer system. A number of these tools allow the examination and analysis of system generated artefacts such as the Windows registry.<br/>Examination and analysis of …

Visual conversations on urban futures : understanding participatory processes and artefacts
… lens (to understand existing processes and artefacts of VCUF) as well as a design tool.Visual Conversations on Urban Futures could offer a significant contribution to the early stages of scenario building processes for possible futures. Manzini and Coad (2015) describe scenarios as …

Tracing Forensic Artefacts from USB-Bound Computing Environments on Windows Hosts
… that it is possible to extract and analyse artefacts of potential evidential interest from host systems where miniature computing environments have been run from USB connectable devices. The research focuses on Windows systems and includes a comparison of the results obtained following …

Investigating the characterisation and stability of polyamide 6,6 in heritage artefacts
Near?infrared reflectance spectroscopy (NIR) is investigated as a method of non?invasive, in situ analysis of contemporary textile material. Besides providing spectral signatures, the advantages of NIR include the non?contact nature of the reflectance technique and the use of a remote, flexible …

Using a Fast Mapping Approach to Investigate Children’s Learning about Artefacts
… the names, actions and functions associated with artefacts. Experiment 1 examined whether children, performing a referent selection task, attach a novel action to a novel referent (i.e., applied mutual exclusivity). Children chose the novel artefact significantly more often than chance. …

Blind Man's Bluff - cruel revelations through the study of architectural artefacts
… hidden in the development of Durban. Many of the artefacts found on site today are abandoned and owe themselves to particular epochs that have faded such as the abandoned World War 1 bunkers and the abandoned whaling station. However, Durban Central Sewage Treatment Works nestles itself in between …

Empire and Artefacts: The "Lost' Museum of the Royal United Services Institute
This thesis is the first project to examine a deep understanding of the history and purpose of the Royal United Service Museum, 1829-1922. This project begins with an examination of the Museum's founders and what they thought a museum was and what its purpose was to be. In doing this it was …

Designing the Performative Object: a study in designing mindful interaction through artefacts
… of this thesis is that we can identify artefacts with certain characteristics of mindfulness and function as performative objects (POs) and that we can distinguish them as a separate category of definable design objects. In reflection on the usefulness of the proposed concept, I argue …
