Scrivener, S. A. R., Clark, S., Smyth, M., Harris, D., & Rockoff, T. (1992, November). Designing at a distance: experiments in remote-synchronous design. Presented at OZCHI’92: Interface technology – Advancing human-computer communication

Local authorities and economic development in Scotland (1992)
Journal Article
McQuaid, R. W. (1992). Local authorities and economic development in Scotland. Local work : CLES bulletin, 1-7

The recently published Consultation Paper on the reform of local government in Scotland presents options which will have profound effects upon economic development activities of Scottish local authorities. In order to promote an informed debate on th... Read More about Local authorities and economic development in Scotland.

Modelling ecological data. (1992)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Barclay, P. J., & Kennedy, J. (1992). Modelling ecological data. In H. Hinterberger, & J. C. French (Eds.), Proceedings of the Sixth International Working Conference on Scientific and Statistical Database Management (77-93)

Ecological surveys generate large quantities of data; database technology has not yet reached its full
potential in this area. Here we investigate approaches to modelling ecological data, considering the require-
ments for a successful model. An ob... Read More about Modelling ecological data..

Lens System (1992)
Patent
Binnie, D. (1992). Lens System. WO 1992015036 A1. GB

The present invention relates to a lens system (2) suitable for substantially direct interfacing with the image sensing surface (3) of a solid state image capture device (4). The lens system (2) comprises a lens (8) and a spacer (a) in substantially... Read More about Lens System.

Semantic integrity for persistent objects (1992)
Journal Article
Barclay, P. J., & Kennedy, J. (1992). Semantic integrity for persistent objects. Information and Software Technology, 34(8), 533-541. https://doi.org/10.1016/0950-5849%2892%2990147-H

Modelling constructs for specifying semantic integrity are reviewed, and their implicit execution semantics discussed. An integrity maintenance model based on these constructs is presented. An implementation of this model in a persistent programming... Read More about Semantic integrity for persistent objects.

The role of task analysis in systems design (1992)
Journal Article
Benyon, D. (1992). The role of task analysis in systems design. Interacting with Computers, 4(1), 102-123. https://doi.org/10.1016/0953-5438%2892%2990015-8

Task analysis and systems analysis are both collections of techniques aimed at the development of interactive computer-based systems. Clearly there must be some relationship between them. However, since the techniques originate from different discipl... Read More about The role of task analysis in systems design.
