The Age-shift: observations on social policy, ageism and the dynamics of the adult lifecourse (2007)
Journal Article
Biggs, S., Phillipson, C., Money, A., & Leach, R. (2007). The Age-shift: observations on social policy, ageism and the dynamics of the adult lifecourse. Journal of Social Work Practice, 20(3), 239 - 250. https://doi.org/10.1080/02650530600931708

Through a critical engagement with policy trends, we ask how shifts in ideologies of ageing might influence the possibilities available to adults as they grow older. Of particular interest are the implications for how people are being encouraged to t... Read More about The Age-shift: observations on social policy, ageism and the dynamics of the adult lifecourse.

Ion irradiation and thermally induced mixing of CoCrPt∕Cr multilayered films (2007)
Journal Article
Georgieva, M. T., Grundy, P. J., & Telling, N. D. (2007). Ion irradiation and thermally induced mixing of CoCrPt∕Cr multilayered films. Applied Physics Letters, 90(4), https://doi.org/10.1063/1.2432256

A set of multilayered films with variable layer thicknesses has been used in an investigation of interlayer mixing and “patterning” of samples with relatively high coercivity and in-plane magnetization. The multilayers with the highest coercivitie... Read More about Ion irradiation and thermally induced mixing of CoCrPt∕Cr multilayered films.

Translocal Circulation: Place and Subjectivity in an Extended Filipino Community (2007)
Journal Article
McKay. (2007). Translocal Circulation: Place and Subjectivity in an Extended Filipino Community. Asia Pacific Journal of Anthropology, 265 - 278. https://doi.org/10.1080/14442210600979357

As migration and mobility produce new subject positions, they transform and extend locality and create both new subjective experiences of place and new subjectivities. This paper explores the culture of circulation that emerges between a migrant send... Read More about Translocal Circulation: Place and Subjectivity in an Extended Filipino Community.

Neuroevolution of agents capable of reactive and deliberative behaviours in novel and dynamic environments (2007)
Journal Article
Channon. (2007). Neuroevolution of agents capable of reactive and deliberative behaviours in novel and dynamic environments. Lecture notes in computer science, 345 - 354. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-540-74913-4_35

Both reactive and deliberative qualities are essential for a good action selection mechanism. We present a model that embodies a hybrid of two very different neural network architectures inside an animat: one that controls their high level deliberati...
