'Balls in the Air’: Exploring Women’s Careers Internationally
(2012)
Crowley-Henry, Marian
Abstract:
There have been calls for the pluralization of research and publications on international assignees beyond the widely described organization-assigned expatriate. Equally it has been noted that females are under-represented in the organization-assigned expatriation pool. This paper presents an under-explored category of self-initiated international assignees: highly educated, non-French, Western (first world) females who have moved to the South of France while attempting to maintain their paid working careers. A qualitative research study was undertaken, where the career-related experiences of a sample of twenty females (from a wider study of thirty-seven individuals) were collected through in-depth interviews conducted over a three-year period. The core findings from those career narratives are shared in this paper. The findings highlight both the personal nature of careers and the permeable career/life boundary, described by one of the respondents as juggling several ‘balls in the ...

'Letting go of control' to embrace open source : implications for company and community
(2010)
Shaikh, Maha; Cornford, Tony
Abstract:
It is increasingly understood across the information technology and services sector that engagement with the open source software model can serve as a means for firms to capture intellectual energy, learn about productive software processes, access relevant technical skills, identify and recruit staff, as well as obtain valuable resources including code. This paper reports a study undertaken within two large global IT companies that have been actively involved with open source for more than ten years. The study involved over 30 semi-structured interviews with employees of the companies drawn from top, middle, and lower level management, and included active and experienced developer as well as open source community members. Our findings indicate how these companies have adapted their day-to-day management practices to take into account the need for flexibility and freedom expected by open source communities. This paper focuses on how they ‘let go of control’ and what the implication...

'Loosely-coupled' consistency between agent-oriented conceptual models and Z specifications
(2005)
Krishna, Aneesh; Ghose, Aditya K.; Vilkomir, Sergiy A.
Abstract:
Agent-oriented conceptual modelling (AOCM) is a relatively new technique that offers significant benefits in the modelling and development of complex computer systems. It is highly effective in answering questions such that what are the main goals of the system, how key actors depend on each other, and what alternatives exist. A formal method can benefit any stage of the software development lifecycle and improves the quality of the computer systems. The paper defines an approach that allows to complement requirements modelling notations with formal specifications, while preserving the consistency between them.

'LUCAS': the library assistant robot, implementation and localisation
(2005)
Behan, Julie; O'Keeffe, Derek T.
Abstract:
In modern ageing society, robots are been designed to play an increasing role in the lives of elderly people This paper describes a mobile robotic assistant, named ‘LUCAS’, Limerick University Computerised Assistive System, that is currently being developed to assist elderly individuals with mild cognitive or physical impairments within a library environment. The aim of the project is to provide an assistive socially interactive robotic aid. The main focus of this paper is on the localisation system of ‘LUCAS’. A continuous localisation process is used which relies on monocular vision and ultrasonic range readings. The process employ’s methods of straight-line-extraction, vanishing point estimation and ultrasonic pattern detection. The correspondence space is reduced by splitting the navigable space into localisation variant regions. The pose is calculated for each localisation hypothesis within the particular region and is used to correct the motion of the robot before it enters th...

Curto, Vincenzo F.; Angelov, Nikolay; Coyle, Shirley; Byrne, Robert; Hughes, Sarah; Moyna, Niall; Diamond, Dermot; Benito-Lopez, Fernando
Abstract:
In this work a robust, non-invasive and wearable micro-fluidic system was developed and employed to analyse pH of sweat in real time during exercise. The device is incorporated in an optical detection platform designed to provide real-time information on sweat composition. The device has been tested by monitoring the pH of sweat during 55 minutes of cycling activity. During these trials, the data obtained by the micro-fluidic system was compared to pH measurements obtained in parallel studies with a conventional electrochemical sensor.

'The Bourgeoisie, Historically, Has Played a Most Revolutionary Part': Understanding Social Movements From above
(2006)
Cox, Laurence; Gunvald Nilsen, Alf
Abstract:
'From castles and palaces and churches to prisons and workhouses and schools; from weapons of war to a controlled press', Raymond Williams writes, 'any ruling class, in variable ways though always materially, produces a social and political order'. This productive activity constitutes the essence of what can be referred to as social movements from above. This paper explores social movements from above as the organization of multiple forms of skilled activity around a rationality expressed and organized by dominant social groups, which aims at the maintenance or modification of a dominant structure of entrenched needs and capacities in ways that reproduce and/or extend the power of those groups and its hegemonic position within a given social formation. Starting from a theoretical conception of social structure as the sediment of struggle between social movements from above and those from below, the paper discusses the relevance of a conception of social movemen...

Abstract:
Since the initial breakthroughs in the 1960’s and 70’s that led to the development of the glucose biosensor, the oxygen electrode, ion-selective electrodes, and electrochemical/optochemical diagnostic devices, the vision of very reliable, affordable chemical sensors and bio-sensors capable of functioning autonomously for long periods of time (years), and providing access to continuous streams of real-time data remains unrealized. This is despite massive investment in research and the publication of many thousands of papers in the literature. It is over 40 years since the first papers proposing the concept of the artificial pancreas, by combining the glucose electrode with an insulin pump. Yet even now, there is no chemical sensor/biosensor that can function reliably inside the body for more than a few days, and such is the gap in what can be delivered (days), and what is required (minimum 10 years) for implantable devices, it is not surprising that in health diagnostics, the overw...

‘Experimentation in contact with the real’: networking with Deleuze & Guattari
(2011)
Kamp, Annelies
Abstract:
This paper draws on data from an longitudinal case study of a Local Learning and Employment Network (LLEN) instituted by a state government in Victoria in the arena of post compulsory education and training to explore the possibilities of a new approach to thinking about networks, their formation and operation, one that is inspired by ‘A Thousand Plateaus’ (Deleuze & Guattari, 1987). Using a rhizomatic approach my focus is on the middle — the plateau — a space that is made of lines moving in multiple directions. Looking at the middle disrupts taken-for-granted understandings and perceptions of linearity; it is in considering middles and plateaus that it is possible to move beyond a concern with joining-up ‘fixed’ entities within existing, and constrained, ways of knowing and, in the process, finding new ways of understanding and realizing the potential of a phenomenon that is ‘fast becoming a standard explanation of structure and action in both the public and private domain’(...

Abstract:
In traditional biomedical diagnostics blood samples have predominantly been used as the test specimen for detection of various conditions. Recent advances in sensor technology, combined with the need for non-invasive diagnostics, has led to the development of methods and devices which target more easily accessible biological specimens such as sweat, saliva and breath [1]. These advances and the success of wearable devices monitoring physiological and environmental parameters have led to interest from large companies such as Google and Apple in the production of wearable biochemical sensors. Advances in electrochemical sensing have led to breakthroughs in wearable sensing, including a wearable sensor for monitoring of multiple biomarkers in exercise induced sweat [2]. This work presents a fully integrated watch-type platform for harvesting and analysing the sodium content of sweat in real-time. This has been achieved through the combination of miniaturised all solid-state ion select...

Abstract:
<p>This paper aims to examine the coverage of the 1916 Easter Rising and the impact of that coverage on the political aspirations of Irish people in the aftermath of the Rising. It is examined here as a media event within the context of modernity and as an event that aimed to amplify on an international stage through the press the aims of the insurgents and so redefine Irish nationalism.</p>

‘The teacher is here to ask for your help’: A story of schools, employers and networks.
(2005)
Kamp, Annelies
Abstract:
This paper explores the development of the Jobs4Kids (J4K) campaign, a joint initiative of the SGR LLEN Employer Reference Group and the Beacon Foundation. Involving a three-year business plan, the J4K campaign aims to broker young people into employment in local jobs in the region. The campaign is the result of the intersection between an evolving project within the LLEN and the growth of an established program of the Beacon Foundation. The paper will use a Deleuzian lens to explore the ground shifts that have occurred in the process of forming this connection; I am concerned with the intersecting movements of different orders that have created a necessary transitory coordination. Within such a ‘rhizome’ there are only lines: dimensional lines of segmentarity and stratification and lines of flight as ‘the maximum dimension after which the multiplicity undergoes metamorphosis, changes in nature’ (Deleuze & Guattari 1987 p.21). My perspective of this metamorphosis is specif...

‘Water, water, every where, Nor any drop to drink’
(2014)
Diamond, Dermot
Abstract:
Despite decades of research and huge investment, remote monitoring of the state of fresh and sea-water using all but the simplest sensors remains prohibitively expensive. As water metering and charges are increasingly implemented across Europe, can the ordinary person expect to obtain devices that can enable them to independently check the quality of their drinking water? Will citizens be able to share this data, and access other data related to their environment, like air quality? The signs are that they will, but the path forward is not straightforward. In this lecture I will discuss the current status of autonomous sensors for environmental monitoring, and speculate on the key breakthroughs that could drive a sensor 'revolution', which has the potential to place a vast amount of environmental information in the public domain.

"Calling passengers" - an ethical problem in the design of self-service websites amongst low-cost airlines in Ireland.
(2010)
Barry, Chris; Torres, Ann M.
Abstract:
Ethics on the Internet has been a widely debated topic in recent years covering issues that range from privacy to security to fraud. Little, however, has been written on more subtle ethical questions such as the exploitation of Web technologies to inhibit or avoid customer service. Increasingly, it would appear, some firms are using Websites to create distance between them and their customer base in specific areas of their operations, while simultaneously developing excellence in sales transaction completion via self-service. This paper takes a magnifying glass with an ethical lens to just one sector ¿ the low-cost, Web-based selfservice airline industry, specifically in Ireland. The paper notes the teaching of information systems development (ISD) and, for the most part, its practice assumes ethicality. Similarly, marketing courses focus on satisfying customer needs more effectively and efficiently within the confines of an acceptable ethos. This paper observes that while these bu...
