In an age of sustainability focussed on the short term of carbon reduction, it is important that we maintain an understanding of the broader characteristics which make places sustainable over the longevity of time. Adaptability as a design characteristic embodies spatial, structural, and service strategies which allow the physical artefact a level of malleability in response to changing operati...

Regular readers were found to adjust the routine of reading to the demands of processing imposed by different orthographies. Dyslexic readers may lack such adaptability in reading. This hypothesis was tested among readers of Hebrew, as Hebrew has two forms of script differing in phonological transparency. Event-related potentials were recorded from 24 regular and 24 dyslexic readers while they ...

Dynamic optimiser design currently assumes that diversity is a desirable property towards achieving adaptability, as a population-based optimiser contains an implicit memory. This paper examines the applicability of this assumption. Population-based algorithms of different size are tested against optimisers using a single solution. Results presented here suggest that this view is somewhat simpl...

This paper discusses our initial work in developing metrics for software adaptability. In this paper we have developed several metrics for software adaptability. One of the advantages of the metrics that we have developed is that they are applicable at the architectural level. Since architecture development is the first stage of the design process, the extent to which the architecture is adapta...

secure electronic transaction (set) protocol is an open protocol, which has the potential to emerge as a powerful tool in securing of electronic transactions. the quality of a design of an ecommerce protocols has a great influence on achieving non-functional requirements (nfrs) to the system. an increasingly important non-functional attribute of complex software systems is adaptability. softwar...

Research on career adaptability predominantly uses variable-centered approaches that focus on the average effects in terms of the predictors and outcomes within a given sample. Extending this research, the present paper used a person-centered approach to determine whether subgroups with distinct adaptability profiles in terms of concern, control, curiosity and confidence can be identified. We a...
