“I am Spartacus”: privacy enhancing technologies, collaborative obfuscation and privacy as a public good

Journal Article
Kwecka, Z., Buchanan, W. J., Schafer, B., & Rauhofer, J. (2014)
“I am Spartacus”: privacy enhancing technologies, collaborative obfuscation and privacy as a public good. Artificial Intelligence and Law, 22(2), 113-139. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10506-014-9155-5
The paper introduces an approach to privacy enhancing technologies that sees privacy not merely as an individual right, but as a public good. This understanding of privacy has...

Incorporating emissions models within a multi-objective vehicle routing problem.

Conference Proceeding
Urquhart, N. B., Scott, C., & Hart, E. (2013)
Incorporating emissions models within a multi-objective vehicle routing problem. In C. Blum (Ed.), GECCO'13 Companion: Proceeding of the fifteenth annual conference companion on Genetic and evolutionary computation (193-194). https://doi.org/10.1145/2464576.2464663
The vehicle routing problem with time windows (VRPTW) has previously been investigated as a multi-objective problem. In this paper estimated carbon emissions is added as an ob...

Using graphical information systems to improve vehicle routing problem instances.

Conference Proceeding
