Open Access Button Workshop
No full textWorkshop at Open Repositories 2014, Helsinki, Finland, June 9-13, 2014Workshops and TutorialsThe Open Access Button is a browser-based tool that aims to show the global effects of research paywalls and help users get access to the research they need. Users install the Button and click it whenever they reach a journal article to which they have no access, and the Button logs the problem and searches for an Open Access version of the article to present to the user. So far, the Open Access Button has mapped over 4000 paywalls hit by users.
This workshop will demonstrate what the Open Access Button is, what it intends to do, the functionality of the current beta version of the Button tool, how this is relevant to repositories and how conference attendees can be involved in developing new functions for the new version of the Button. I am a researcher and librarian and I have worked in a repository and CRIS environment, so understand the issues from multiple angles.Andrews, Penny CS (University of Sheffield, Open Access Button
Dual-Band Wearable Metallic Button Antennas and Transmission in Body Area Networks
No full textA dual-band metallic antenna with the appearance of a button on a pair of jeans for use with wearable computer networks, emergency rescue scenarios and future wireless medical applications is presented. The design operates at 2.4 GHz WLAN and the HiperLAN/2 bands and a parametric study is given to aid the design process together with measurement and simulation of the structure on a body. A study of transmission between pairs of on-body antennas is presented to give insight into on-body propagating line of sight and non-line of sight channels. A term 'body gain' is defined to quantify how the body attenuates the channel

Planning Models: Scoping the Scene
No full textPlanning is a massive field, and the types and variations of models used are enormous. This chapter (and the related collection), therefore, makes no pretence to cover all the various forms of models that are used across the entire gambit of planning applications. It focuses very much on the types of mathematical models that have been developed by social scientists in their efforts to explain, in particular, spatial location patterns. We feel that it is preferable to systematically treat an area of modelling in a particular context rather than pursue a shot-gun approach embracing a a number of planning applications which would mean the pellets spreading across a large area without any real penetration at any point
