Mobile app development: Work-integrated learning collaborations with Māori and Fijian partners
(2022)Only a few information and communication technology (ICT) work-integrated learning (WIL) projects involving universities and Indigenous partners are being reported and very little is known about the approaches that are ... -
The mobile hermit and the city: Considering links between places, objects, and identities in social psychological research on homelessness
(The British Psychological Society, 2010)This article explores aspects of a homeless man's everyday life and his use of material objects to maintain a sense of place in the city. We are interested in the complex functions of walking, listening and reading as ... -
Mobile phone use while driving after a new national law in New Zealand
(ACRS, 2013-08-28)Mobile phone use while driving leads to impairments in driver performance including slowed reaction times, poor lane keeping and reduced hazard detection. To increase public safety, in 2009 the New Zealand (NZ) Government ... -
A mobile reader for language learners
(The University of Technology, Sydney, 2016)This paper describes a new approach to mobile language learning; a mobile reader that aids learners in extending the breadth of their existing vocabulary knowledge. The FLAX Reader supports L2 (second language) learners ... -
Mobile support for diagnosis of communicable diseases in remote locations
(ACM, 2012)Surveillance and diagnosis of new and emerging communicable diseases in remote regions, such as the Amazon, is a challenging task. These regions can be difficult to reach, are sparsely populated, and have limited medical ... -
Mobile technologies in schools: The student voice
(Wilf Malcolm Institute of Educational Research, 2017)Intermediate and high school students spend a large amount of time using mobile devices (Lauricella, Cingel, Blackwell, Wartella, & Conway, 2014), and such devices are increasingly being integrated into our school system. ... -
Mobilising research ethics: Two examples from Aotearoa New Zealand
(New Zealand Geographical Society, 2017)(Im)mobilities are considered to encapsulate a broad range of projects that establish a ‘moment-driven’ social science. I argue that moment driven research needs to be in conversation with an ethical document. It is how ... -
Mobility aids detection using Convolution Neural Network (CNN)
(IEEE, 2018)The automated detection of disabled persons in surveillance videos to gain data for lobbying access for disabled persons is a largely unexplored application. We train You Only Look Once (YOLO) CNN on a custom database and ... -
Mobility and emplacement of an ancient, large-volume pyroclastic flow, Ongatiti Ignimbrite, North Island, New Zealand
(Elsevier, 2023-07-28)Pyroclastic flows are the most devastating phenomena of explosive volcanic eruptions. These hazardous fast-moving, hot, concentrated density currents are able to travel several tens of kilometers radially away from their ... -
Modal restriction semigroups: towards an algebra of functions
(World Science, 2011)Restriction semigroups model algebras of partial maps under composition and domain. Here we consider restriction semigroups for which the usual Boolean operations on domains are modeled. Such algebras are capable of modeling ... -
Mode choice and mode commitment in commuters
(Elsevier, 2020)In New Zealand, like many other developed countries, a majority of trips (67%) involve the use of private cars, producing negative effects on the environment and public health. Interventions aimed to reduce car use can be ... -
Mode I and Mode II interlaminar fracture toughness of composite laminates interleaved with electrospun nanofibre veils
(Elsevier, 2015-05-01)In this study, the effects of interleaved nanofibre veils on the Mode I and Mode II interlaminar fracture toughness (ILFT) of autoclave cured unidirectional carbon/epoxy composite laminates were investigated. Various ... -
Model checking for cloud autoscaling using WATERS
(The University of Waikato, 2020)This thesis investigates the use of formal methods to verify cloud system designs against Service Level Agreements (SLAs), towards providing guarantees under uncertainty. We used WATERS (the Waikato Analysis Toolkit for ... -
Model Development for Seasonal Forecasting of Hydro Lake Inflows in the Upper Waitaki Basin, New Zealand
(The University of Waikato, 2007)Approximately 60% of New Zealand's electricity is produced from hydro generation. The Waitaki River catchment is located in the centre of the South Island of New Zealand, and produces 35-40% of New Zealand's electricity. ... -
A Model for Meeting Content Storage and Retrieval
(IEEE Computer Society, 2005)This paper presents a model for storage of remote Internet-based multimedia meetings and information retrieval from textual and time-based content. The model builds on a theory of content mapping that exploits temporal and ... -
A model for predicting the resolution of type 2 diabetes in severely obese subjects following roux-en y gastric bypass surgery
(Springer Verlag NY Inc, 2011)Background Severely obese type 2 diabetics who undergo Roux-en Y gastric bypass surgery have significant improvements in glycaemic control. Little work has been undertaken to establish the independent predictors of such ... -
Model selection based product kernel learning for regression on graphs
(ACM, 2013)The choice of a suitable graph kernel is intrinsically hard and often cannot be made in an informed manner for a given dataset. Methods for multiple kernel learning offer a possible remedy, as they combine and weight kernels ... -
Model versus nature: Hydrodynamics in mangrove pneumatophores
(2016)Water flows through submerged and emergent vegetation control the transport and deposition of sediment in coastal wetlands. Many past studies into the hydrodynamics of vegetation fields have used idealized vegetation mimics, ... -
Model-driven GUI & interaction design using emulation
(ACM, 2010)This paper introduces a model-driven emulator for the interaction and GUI design of complex interacting systems. It allows systems that are engineered using formal methods and modelling to be tested with users before the ... -
Modeling and simulation of the dynamic process in high energy ball milling of metal powders
(The University of Waikato, 2000)Mechanical alloying/mechanical grounding by using high-energy ball milling has been considered as a promising materials processing technique to synthesize materials. In this study, modeling simulation has been carried out ...
