title: Investigation into building large scale wireless networks with ubiquitous access

authors: Yearbury, Scott

abstract: This thesis presents a design and implementation of a novel method of device authentication in Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 802.11 Wi-Fi networks and a method of access point configuration and management. The novel method of authentication provides a mix of properties from both Wi-Fi protected access (WPA) - Personal and WPA-Enterprise. It allows for per user authentication and allows for device ownership to be tracked like WPA-Enterprise while providing the ease of use of and ubiquitous support of WPA-Personal. It also allows for a network covering a wide area to use a single Service Set Identifier (SSID) and for seamless authentication and roaming between access points. This project also provides a highly scalable method of centralised access point configuration and management based upon the OpenSync access point management software and a custom OpenSync controller. The access point configuration and management and Wi-Fi authentication methods provided are designed so that it supports this project being extended to provide user based network segmentation such that each user appears to have their own virtual layer 2 network as they roam between access points.

title: Second order superintegrable systems in conformally flat spaces. II. The classical two-dimensional Stäckel transform

authors: Kalnins, Ernie G.

subjects: Mathematics

abstract: This paper is one of a series that lays the groundwork for a structure and classification theory of second order superintegrable systems, both classical and quantum, in conformally flat spaces. Here we study the Stäckel transform (or coupling constant metamorphosis) as an invertible mapping between classical superintegrable systems on different spaces. Through the use of this tool we derive and classify for the first time all two-dimensional (2D) superintegrable systems. The underlying spaces are exactly those derived by Koenigs in his remarkable paper giving all 2D manifolds (with zero potential) that admit at least three second order symmetries. Our derivation is very simple and quite distinct. We also show that every superintegrable system is the Stäckel transform of a superintegrable system on a constant curvature space.

title: Monitoring first year Maori students enrolled in selected Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences courses: A report prepared for the Dean of the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences

authors: Levy, Michelle Patricia

subjects: maori students

abstract: Monitoring first year Maori Students Enrolled in Selected Faculty of Arts andSocial Sciences Courses. The total number of Maori students targeted by this project was 182, representing 93% of the total number of Maori students enrolled in Semester B level one courses. The majority of students participating in this initiative were first year students, although a small number of students taking 100 level courses were second, third or graduate year students. 11 Student views on the monitoring and support initiative Students were provided with the opportunity to comment on the monitoring and support initiative. All students contacted (49) recommended that this intervention continue for future first year Maori students enrolled in FASS.
