The Teallach tool: Using models for flexible user interface design. (1999)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Barclay, P. J., Griffiths, T., McKirdy, J., Paton, N. W., Cooper, R., & Kennedy, J. (1999, October). The Teallach tool: Using models for flexible user interface design. Presented at 3rd International Conference on Computer-Aided Des

Model-based user interface development environments aim to provide designers with a more systematic approach to user interface development using a particular design method. This method is realised through tools which support the construction and link... Read More about The Teallach tool: Using models for flexible user interface design..

Providing views and closure for the object data management group object model (1999)
Journal Article
Roantree, M., Kennedy, J., & Barclay, P. (1999). Providing views and closure for the object data management group object model. Information and Software Technology, 41(15), 1037-1044. https://doi.org/10.1016/s0950-5849%2899%2900042-7

The ODMG Object Model uses a standard for object-oriented database designers,
while attempting to address some issues of interoperability. This research is focused
on the viability of using the ODMG data model as a canonical data model in a
multid... Read More about Providing views and closure for the object data management group object model.

A multidatabase layer for the ODMG object model (1999)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Roantree, M., Kennedy, J., & Barclay, P. J. (1998, September). A multidatabase layer for the ODMG object model. Presented at 5th International Conference on Object-Oriented Information Systems, 1998, Paris, France

The lack of a common object model has been addressed to some extent by the specification of the ODMG Object Model standard. However, the problem still exists for designers of object-oriented multidatabase systems. In this research we propose to use t... Read More about A multidatabase layer for the ODMG object model.

An open model-based interface development system: The Teallach approach. (1998)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Griffiths, T., McKirdy, J., Paton, N. W., Kennedy, J., Cooper, R., Barclay, P. J., Goble, C., Gray, P., Smyth, M., West, A., & Dinn, A. (1998, June). An open model-based interface development system: The Teallach approach. Presented at DSV-IS '98: 5th International Eurographics Workshop on Design, Specification and Verification of Interactive Systems

The goal of the Teallach project is to provide facilities for the systematic development of interfaces to object databases in a manner which is independent of both a specific underlying database and operating system. Teallach's open architecture als... Read More about An open model-based interface development system: The Teallach approach..

Exploiting model based techniques for user interfaces to databases. (1998)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Griffiths, T., McKirdy, J., Forrester, G., Paton, N. W., Kennedy, J., Barclay, P. J., Cooper, R., Goble, C., & Gray, P. (1998, May). Exploiting model based techniques for user interfaces to databases. Presented at ADVANCED VISUAL INTERFACES, VISUAL DATABASE SYSTEMS. International Working Conference - VDB4, 1998

Model-based systems provide methods for supporting the systematic and efficient
development of application interfaces. This paper examines how model-based
technologies can be exploited to develop user interfaces to databases. To this end
five mode... Read More about Exploiting model based techniques for user interfaces to databases..

A lightweight presentation model for database user interfaces. (1998)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Gray, P., Cooper, R., Kennedy, J., McKirdy, J., Barclay, P. J., & Griffiths, T. (1998). A lightweight presentation model for database user interfaces. In C. Stephanidis, & A. Waern (Eds.), 4th ERCIM Workshop on "User Interfaces for All"

The Teallach project is building a system which eases the design and implementation of
user interfaces (web-based or otherwise) to object-oriented database applications. Teallach takes a model
based approach and is constructing its system around th... Read More about A lightweight presentation model for database user interfaces..

Using active constructs in user-interfaces to object-oriented databases. (1997)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Mitchell, K., Kennedy, J., & Barclay, P. J. (1997). Using active constructs in user-interfaces to object-oriented databases. In Proceedings [of the First] International database engineering and applications symposium, (3-12)

This paper examines the use of active constructs in the definition of user-interfaces to object-oriented databases. A development environment for user-interfaces to databases is presented which features the interactive use of active features of an ob...

bclasses: A construct and method for modelling co-operative object behaviour (1997)
Journal Article
Marshall, B. R., Kennedy, J. B., & Barclay, P. J. (1997). bclasses: A construct and method for modelling co-operative object behaviour. Information and Software Technology, 39(5), 351-361. https://doi.org/10.1016/s0950-5849%2896%2901151-2

Current object-oriented (OO) modelling techniques emphasise the static aspects of data objects. Dynamics in general and collaborations between objects in particular tend to be poorly supported and are often treated separately. A full understanding of...

A framework for information visualisation (1996)
Journal Article
Kennedy, J., Mitchell, K., & Barclay, P. J. (1996). A framework for information visualisation. SIGMOD record, 25, 30-34

In this paper we examine the issues involved in developing information visualisation systems and present a framework for their construction. The framework addresses the components which must be considered in providing effective visualisations. The fr... Read More about A framework for information visualisation.

DRIVE: An environment for the organised construction of user interfaces to data. (1996)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Mitchell, K., Kennedy, J., & Barclay, P. J. (1996, July). DRIVE: An environment for the organised construction of user interfaces to data. Presented at 3rd International Workshop on User Interfaces to Databases - IDS3, 1996

This paper describes a runtime user-interface development
environment (UIDE) for the novel capability of interactively using and specifying user-interfaces to object-oriented databases (IDSs). A framework provides the foundation for IDSs constructed... Read More about DRIVE: An environment for the organised construction of user interfaces to data..
