A methodology for composing well-defined character descriptions. (2003)
Report
Paterson, T., Cannon, A., Raguenaud, C., Russell, G., Armstrong, K. E., MacDonald, S. M., …Kennedy, J. (2003). A methodology for composing well-defined character descriptions

Taxonomy has been described as “the science of documenting biodiversity”, which involves collecting, naming, describing, identifying and classifying specimens of organisms (Keogh, 1995). Descriptions are the fundamental information units used in the... Read More about A methodology for composing well-defined character descriptions..

The Prometheus II Description Model: an objective approach to representing taxonomic descriptions (2002)
Preprint / Working Paper
MacDonald, S. M., Raguenaud, C., Pullan, M. R., Kennedy, J., Russell, G., & Watson, M. F. The Prometheus II Description Model: an objective approach to representing taxonomic descriptions

A model for improving the storage and communication of plant descriptions is presented. The model is flexible and yet reduces the ambiguity often present in text descriptions. The fundamental idea behind the model is the necessity for clear represent... Read More about The Prometheus II Description Model: an objective approach to representing taxonomic descriptions.

Multiple traffic signal control using a genetic algorithm (1999)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kalganova, T., Russell, G., & Cumming, A. (1999). Multiple traffic signal control using a genetic algorithm. In A. Dobnikar, N. C. Steele, D. W. Pearson, & R. F. Albrecht (Eds.), Artificial Neural Nets and Genetic Algorithms (220-228). https://doi.org/10.

Optimising traffic signal timings for a multiple-junction road network is a difficult but important problem. The essential difficulty of this problem is that the traffic signals need to coordinate their behaviours to achieve the common goal of optimi...

Accurate rapid simulation of urban traffic using discrete modelling. (1996)
Report
Russell, G., Shaw, P., & Ferguson, N. (1996). Accurate rapid simulation of urban traffic using discrete modelling

Increasing model complexity has traditionally been viewed as a key way of improving microscopic model accuracy. However, with complexity comes an increase in execution time. In some applications, such as UTC systems, low execution times and a high de... Read More about Accurate rapid simulation of urban traffic using discrete modelling..

The rapid simulation of urban traffic using field programmable gate arrays. (1994)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Russell, G., Shaw, P., McInnes, J., & Ferguson, N. (1994). The rapid simulation of urban traffic using field programmable gate arrays. In International Conference on Application of New Technology to Transport Systems (107-122)

Conventional traffic simulation techniques, employing continuous movement of vehicles, do not have a sufficiently fast responce time for the real-time operational control of an urban network. A new simulation technique is proposed using field-program... Read More about The rapid simulation of urban traffic using field programmable gate arrays..

Rapid simulation of urban traffic using FPGAs. (1994)
Report
Russell, G., Shaw, P., McInnes, J., & Ferguson, N. (1994). Rapid simulation of urban traffic using FPGAs

Microscopic simulation of complex traffic models can take hours or even days on simulators build to run on a single processor machine. These simulators use continuous models for traffic movement. In this report, we introduce a discrete simulation sys... Read More about Rapid simulation of urban traffic using FPGAs..

DAIS: An Object-Addressed Processor Cache (1994)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Russell, G., Shaw, P., & Cockshott, W. P. (1994). DAIS: An Object-Addressed Processor Cache. In Persistent Object Systems: Proceedings of the 6th International Workshop on Persistent Object Systems (374-386). https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4471-2122-0_29

DAIS is a proposed processor incorporating hardware-based object addressing. By providing only the very minimum of support for objects, it allows efficient access via a novel caching system. Object addressing is supported at the instruction level, wi... Read More about DAIS: An Object-Addressed Processor Cache.

Simulating vehicular traffic flows using the Circal System. (1994)
Report
Russell, G., Cowie, A., McInnes, J., Bate, M., & Milne, G. (1994). Simulating vehicular traffic flows using the Circal System

Modern civil engineers have big problems on their hands; more cars use our road networks every year, leading to ever increasing congestion. Knowing how to change a road network to relieve congestion without spending millions of pounds doing so is a t... Read More about Simulating vehicular traffic flows using the Circal System..
