This research aims to understand the prototype usage and practical applicability for capturing and managing HCDs. This is a proof-of-concept tool which is trying to imrpove the reporting and fixing of HCDs. The uploaded document is the interview and post interview-survey questionnaire for the study.

This document includes all the appendices related to the paper that has been accepted to present at the 17th International Conference on Cooperative and Human Aspects of Software Engineering (CHASE) 2024, Lisbon, Portugal. 

Data sets and code to replicate analyses and figures in Velasquez Jimenez and Abram (2024). Technical note: An improved methodology for calculating the Southern Annular Mode index to aid consistency between climate studies.

This code can be used to replicate the results in the paper 'ABC-based Forecasting in Misspecified State Space Models' (2024) by Weerasinghe, Loaiza-Maya, Martin and Frazier.

The rapid uptake of social media, which Australians now use more than any other type of media, presents many opportunities for accessing information, but also presents the highly significant challenge of misinformation. The sheer volume of information online can be overwhelming and very difficult to navigate. As a result, bad actors seek to undermine democratic processes and target individuals. This has been widely recognised as a global problem. However, Australians lack the confidence and ability to verify misinformation.This report is based on analysis of four linked datasets and finds that the vast majority of adult Australians want to be able to identify misinformation and are trying to do so. It also finds that many adult Australians overestimate their ability to verify information online. The research findings illustrate the need for media literacy initiatives. These might include videos that show people how to fact check online or how to identify high-quality news sources, quizzes or games that help people develop their digital media knowledge and skills, explainers that show how platform business models operate and how this relates to the spread of misinformation, or in-person media production training that can help people think critically, and accurately represent people, places and ideas.

This article discusses the use of Material Extrusion of Metals (MEX/M - defined in ISO/ASTM 52900) technology for producing multi-material components, which offers a cost-effective and efficient method without requiring major adaptations to existing equipment. The article presents the successful manufacture of 316L/17–4PH multi-alloy steel cubes for four different sintering temperatures using commercially available equipment and feedstock. The feasibility study of the multi-material samples was supported by analyzing the shrinkage, optical density, and microstructure as output parameters. Unlike other works, the multi-material produced parts showed regular shrinkage behaviour and no major deformation, indicating the possibility of creating functional parts without the need for post-processing. Interestingly, relevant findings were made on the different shrinkage values obtained for the constellations considered. Further in-depth investigation of each parameter involved in all the stages of the chain value (extrusion, debinding, and sintering) will be key to support the present results. Additional research into the mechanical and magnetic properties of the samples produced could lead this combination of materials to applications in various industries including automotive and aerospace.
