SMART Infrastructure Facility - Papers

Mobile devices regularly broadcast WiFi probe requests in order to discover available proximal WiFi access points for connection. A probe request, sent automatically in the active scanning mode, consisting of the MAC address of the device expresses an advertisement of its presence. A real-time wireless sniffing system is able to sense WiFi packets and analyse wireless traffic. This provides an opportunity to obtain insights into the interaction between the humans carrying the mobile devices and the environment. Susceptibility to loss of the wireless data transmission is an important limitation on this idea, and this is complicated by the lack of …


Embracing Knowledge And Behaviour Management To Improve Performance Of Software Intensive Projects, Ricardo Peculis, Derek Rogers, Peter Campbell Jan 2007

Embracing Knowledge And Behaviour Management To Improve Performance Of Software Intensive Projects, Ricardo Peculis, Derek Rogers, Peter Campbell

SMART Infrastructure Facility - Papers

Many reasons have been offered to explain why software projects fail. Still, software intensive projects often present schedule delays, cost overruns and delivering products with reduced functionality. This paper argues that lack of knowledge is yet another factor that causes projects to under perform, which in turn drives undesirable social behaviour that worsens the situation. Software intensive projects develop solutions highly dependent on software that should satisfy a need. The engineering process to develop such complex solutions comprises of a series of transformations that transform products from one domain into products in another domain, requiring knowledge pertinent to both input …
