Gestures and multimodal input (1999)
Journal Article
Keates, S., & Robinson, P. (1999). Gestures and multimodal input. Behaviour and Information Technology, 18(1), 36-44. https://doi.org/10.1080/014492999119237

For users with motion impairments, the standard keyboard and mouse arrangement for computer access often presents problems. Other approaches have to be adopted to overcome this. In this paper, we will describe the development of a prototype multimoda... Read More about Gestures and multimodal input.

Employer transport plans-a case for regulation? (1999)
Journal Article
Rye, T. (1999). Employer transport plans-a case for regulation?. Transport Reviews, 19(1), 13-31. https://doi.org/10.1080/014416499295655

Employer transport plans (ETPs) are increasingly seen by transport planners as one of potential means to manage the demand for private transport. Such plans seek to reduce trips to work by car by providing, through individual employers, a targeted,... Read More about Employer transport plans-a case for regulation?.

From description to requirements: an activity theoretic perspective. (1999)
Journal Article
Turner, P., Turner, S., & Horton, J. (1999). From description to requirements: an activity theoretic perspective. Proceedings of Group’99, 285-295

This paper demonstrates how activity theoretic concepts can be used in conjunction with an ethnographically informed approach to derive requirements on a work situation. We present a case study based on a series of collaborative design episodes,... Read More about From description to requirements: an activity theoretic perspective..

Political parties, democracy and the new information and communication technologies: theorising the relationships (1999)
Journal Article
Löfgren, K., & Smith, C. F. (1999). Political parties, democracy and the new information and communication technologies: theorising the relationships. Working paper / Faculty of Business, Glasgow Caledonian University,

As a result of the increased public penetration of the Internet and other forms of electronic networks in western liberal democracies there has, for some years now, been a growing academian interest in technologically mediated practices within politi...

Perspectives on the design of musical auditory interfaces. (1999)
Journal Article
LePlâtre, G., & Brewster, S. A. (1999). Perspectives on the design of musical auditory interfaces. CASYS, 4, 227-239

This paper addresses the issue of music as a communication medium in auditory humancomputer interfaces. So far, psychoacoustics has had a great influence on the development of auditory interfaces, directly and through music cognition. We suggest t...

Scheduling chicken catching - an investigation into the success of a genetic algorithm on a real world scheduling problem. (1999)
Journal Article
Hart, E., Ross, P., & Nelson, J. (1999). Scheduling chicken catching - an investigation into the success of a genetic algorithm on a real world scheduling problem. Annals of Operations Research, 92, 363-380. https://doi.org/10.1023/A%3A1018951218434

Genetic Algorithms (GAs) are a class of evolutionary algorithms that have been successfully applied to scheduling problems, in particular job-shop and flow-shop type problems where a number of theoretical benchmarks exist. This work applies a genet... Read More about Scheduling chicken catching - an investigation into the success of a genetic algorithm on a real world scheduling problem..
