Responsibility, Recourse, and Redress: A Focus on the Three R’s of AI Ethics (2022)
Journal Article
Gardner, A. (in press). Responsibility, Recourse, and Redress: A Focus on the Three R’s of AI Ethics. IEEE Technology and Society Magazine, 41(2), 84-89. https://doi.org/10.1109/mts.2022.3173342

In August 2020, students took to the streets of London in a mass protest over their A-level results (that determine entry to university), chanting “F*ck the algorithm.” Their A-level grades had been determined by an algorithm that depended on past sc...

A longitudinal case study on the effects of an evidence-based software engineering training (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Pizard, S., Vallespir, D., & Kitchenham, B. (2022, May). A longitudinal case study on the effects of an evidence-based software engineering training. Presented at ICSE-SEET 2022, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA

Context: Evidence-based software engineering (EBSE) can be an effective resource to bridge the gap between academia and industry by balancing research of practical relevance and academic rigor. To achieve this, it seems necessary to investigate EBSE... Read More about A longitudinal case study on the effects of an evidence-based software engineering training.

Barriers to Device Longevity and Reuse: An Analysis of Application Download, Installation and Functionality on a Vintage Device (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Goodwin, C., & Woolley, S. (2022, June). Barriers to Device Longevity and Reuse: An Analysis of Application Download, Installation and Functionality on a Vintage Device. Presented at 20th International Conference on Software and Systems Reuse, ICSR 2022

This paper contributes a methodology and analysis of application installation and function on a ‘vintage’ device. Attempts were made to download, install, open, and run 230 apps on an Apple iPad Mini tablet of approximately nine years old. The apps c...

Super-forecasting the 'technological singularity' risks from artificial intelligence (2022)
Journal Article
Ani, Radanliev, P., De Roure, D., Maple, C., & Ani, U. (2022). Super-forecasting the 'technological singularity' risks from artificial intelligence. Evolving Systems, 13(5), 747-757. https://doi.org/10.1007/s12530-022-09431-7

This article investigates cybersecurity (and risk) in the context of ‘technological singularity’ from artificial intelligence. The investigation constructs multiple risk forecasts that are synthesised in a new framework for counteracting risks from a...

Using large random permutations to partition permutation classes (2022)
Journal Article
Bean, C., Nadeau, E., Pantone, J., & Ulfarsson, H. (2022). Using large random permutations to partition permutation classes. https://doi.org/10.2478/puma-2022-0006

<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title> <jats:p>Permutation classes are sets of permutations defined by the absence of certain substructures. In some cases permutation classes can be decomposed as unions of subclasses. We use combinatorial specifications a...

VQProtect: Lightweight Visual Quality Protection for Error-Prone Selectively Encrypted Video Streaming (2022)
Journal Article
Shifa, A., Abdullah, S., Kanwal, N., Fleury, M., Gillani, S., & Asghar, M. (2022). VQProtect: Lightweight Visual Quality Protection for Error-Prone Selectively Encrypted Video Streaming. Entropy, 755 - 755. https://doi.org/10.3390/e24060755

Mobile multimedia communication requires considerable resources such as bandwidth and efficiency to support Quality-of-Service (QoS) and user Quality-of-Experience (QoE). To increase the available bandwidth, 5G network designers have incorporated Cog...
