Understanding and predicting method-level source code changes using commit history data
(2016-10-01)
Software development and software maintenance require a large amount of source
code changes to be made to a software repositories. Any change to a repository can
introduce new resource needs which will cost more time and ...
GURB : the game user research blueprint
(2016-08-01)
With the rise of new platforms, distribution and crowdfunding services, the game
industry is facing fast changes and advances in technology. Game development
studios are under more pressure to create successful games due ...
Characterization of nanopores with internal cavities for DNA manipulation using Langevin dynamics simulations
(2016-12-01)
A novel nanopore geometry is proposed, in which a larger internal cavity is
located inside a traditional nanopore. Polymer translocation through this geometry
is studied using coarse-grained Langevin dynamics. The most ...
Detecting vulnerabilities of broadcast receivers in Android applications
(2016-01-01)
As being a representative mobile operating system in the world, Android OS has been part of users' daily life. Unfortunately, the rapid expansion of Android third-markets introduces malware aiming at Android applications ...
Direct Brønsted acid-catalyzed functionalization of benzhydryl alcohols and 2-ethoxytetrahydrofuran using potassium trifluoroborate salts
(2016-06-01)
Metal-free transformations of organotrifluoroborates are advantageous since they avoid using frequently expensive and sensitive transition metals. Lewis acid-catalyzed reactions involving organotrifluoroborates have emerged ...
Trust-based framework for information sharing in health care
(2016-10-01)
The use of information systems in the health care area specifically in Mobile health
care, can result in delivering high quality and efficient patient care. At the same
time, using electronic systems for sharing information ...
An investigation of land-use impacts on water quality and algal communities in the Nottawasaga River and low-order streams of the Nottawasaga Valley Watershed
(2016-07-01)
The Nottawasaga Valley Watershed (NVW) is a large catchment south of Georgian Bay that drains a primarily agricultural region including one of the largest wetland complexes in Southern Ontario, the Minesing Wetlands (MW). ...
Strategies and applications for creating more memorable passwords
(2016-01-01)
As we continue to learn and grow in an ever evolving technological age, we deepen our
understanding of the importance of authentication. There are many different types of
authentication, each exhibiting their own strengths ...
Mathematical methods for 2D-3D cardiac image registration
(2016-12-01)
We propose a mathematical formulation aimed at intensity-based slice-to-volume registration,
aligning a cross-sectional slice of a 3D volume to a 2D image. The approach is
flexible and can accommodate various regularization ...
Toward graph layout of large data visualization: algorithms, evaluations and application
(2016-01-01)
Generating layouts for millions of points on a spatially-restricted platform is a difficult
task with a unique set of constraints. These layouts are traditionally generated on a
server out of sight of the user. User-oriented ...
