  • How students experience learning statistics and teaching 
    Petocz Peter; Reid Anna (International Association for Statistics Education, 2002)
    Students in the same statistics course learn different things, and view the role of the lecturer in different ways. We report on empirical research on students' conceptions of learning statistics, their expectations of ...
  • Language of University Mathematics 
    Wood Leigh; Smith Geoff (ICME 2004, 2004)
    Using the example of de Moivre's theorem, we show that the ability to translate between different representations of the same mathematical concepts is vital for success in mathematics. Computer algebra systems have added ...
  • Minimum norm dual solutions and column generalisation stabilisation 
    Neame Philip (Western Australian Centre of Excellence in Industrial Optimisation, Curtin University of Technology, 2005)
    Column generation is an important technique for solving very large-scale integer programming problems, with important applications in crew scheduling and vehicle routing. However, it has been observed that the column ...
  • Monitoring Bridge Deterioration using sensors 
    Samali Bijan; Li Jianchun; Aboura Khalid (IEEE, 2008)
    Structural health monitoring is a vital part in the management of bridges, particularly as the structures begin to age. Detecting structural faults through the use of sensors is an emerging field that has seen considerable ...
  • The need for higher education reform - problems faced with assessing collaborative team based work 
    D'Souza Sabita; Wood Leigh (ICME 2004, 2004)
    With a rise in group work across schools and universities, there has been a great deal of research regarding the beneficial impacts of teamwork on learning. However, research is limited in the area of assessment of ...
  • A novel design of active inductors based on current controlled voltage sources 
    Pierzchala Marian; Fakhfakh M; Rodanski Benedykt (IEEE, 2010)
    This brief presents a new structure of active inductors. These synthetic inductors are designed using current controlled voltage sources. The signal flow graph method is used for this purpose. For the practical realization, ...
  • On becoming a mathematician 
    Petocz Peter; Wood Leigh; Smith Geoff; Reid Anna (ICME 2004, 2004)
    In this paper, we report on our investigations of mathematics students' ideas about working as professionals in the mathematical sciences, and the impact that these ideas have on their learning of mathematics. Our ...
  • On Certain Polynomials of Even Subscripted Lucas Numbers 
    Melham Ray (Kluwer Academic Publishers, 1999)
  • Photonic bandgap effects as a basis for novel compact devices 
    White Tom; Mcphedran Ross; De Sterke C; Asatryan Ara; Langtry Timothy; Botten Lindsay (COIN/ACOFT 2003, 2003)
    Photonic crystals offer the opportunity to design ultra-compact optical devices. Here we consider the "folded directional coupler," which combines elements of a directional coupler and a Fabry-Perot interferometer. This ...
  • Pick-up and delivery with time windows and due dates 
    Neame Philip; Carmody Georgina (University of Ballarat, 2004)
    We consider a variant on a pick-up and delivery problem with time windows, where both early and late delivery of items is penalized. This problem arises from an application in the area of defence, but has wider applications ...
  • Preemptive scheduling on parallel processors with due dates 
    Zinder Yakov; Singh Gaurav (Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers, 2004)
    A priority algorithm is presented for the maximum lateness problem with parallel identical processors, precedence constraints, and preemptions. The algorithm calculates a task's priority by constructing a schedule for ...
  • Pricing European and discretely monitored exotic options under the Levy process framework 
    Roberts Dale; Novikov Alex (Wolfram Research, 2005)
    We shall consider both European and discretely monitored Exotic options (Bermudan and Discrete Barrier) in a market where the underlying asset follows a Geometric Levy process. First we shall briefly introduce this ...
  • The profession entity: research the relationship between students' conceptions of learning and their future professions 
    Reid Anna; Petocz Peter (Oxford Centre for Staff & Learning Development, 2004)
  • Projects for advanced graduates 
    Mackisack Margaret; Petocz Peter (International Association for Statistics Education, 2002)
    This paper presents some issues arising in the use of unscripted consulting projects for final year undergraduate students. The issues relate to the context and difficulty of the projects, the supervisor's role, the ...
  • Pure pattern calculus 
    Jay Barry; Kesner D (Springer-Verlag, 2006)
    The pure pattern calculus generalises the pure lambda-calculus by basing computation on pattern-matching instead of beta-reduction. The simplicity and power of the calculus derive from allowing any term to be a pattern. ...
  • Quasi-Monte Carlo for finance beyond Black-Scholes 
    Baldeaux Jan (Australian Mathematical Scoiety, 2008)
    Quasi-Monte Carlo methods are used to approximate integrals of high dimensionality. However, if the problem under consideration is of unbounded dimensionality, it is not obvious if one can apply quasi-Monte Carlo methods ...
  • Quasi-Monte Carlo methods for derivatives on realised variance of an index under the benchmark approach 
    Baldeaux Jan; Chan Leung Lung; Platen Eckhard (Australian Mathematical Scoiety, 2011)
    We apply quasi-Monte Carlo methods to the pricing of derivatives on realised variance of an index under the benchmark approach. The resulting integration problem is shown to depend on the joint density of the realised ...
  • Scheduling UET tasks on parallel machines: strength of priority algorithms 
    Zinder Yakov (Western Australian Centre of Excellence in Industrial Optimisation, Curtin University of Technology, 2005)
    The paper is concerned with the problem of scheduling a partially ordered set of unit execution time tasks on parallel identical machines in ordered to minimize the criterion of maximum lateness, which plays one of the ...
  • Scheduling UET-UCT tasks: branch-and-bound search in the priority space 
    Zinder Yakov; Singh Gaurav; Su Bo Liang Tim; Sorli Ronald (Universal Academy Press Inc, 2007)
  • STEF: Personalized trade exhibition recommendation 
    Guo Xuetao; Lu Jie (Joint Conference On Information Sciences, 2005)
    In this study, a novel recommendation technique is proposed by integrating the user-based and item-based recommendation approaches. A recommender system, called Smart Trade Exhibition Finder (STEF), is proposed to ...
