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..

An immune system approach to scheduling in changing environments. (1999)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Hart, E., & Ross, P. (1999, July). An immune system approach to scheduling in changing environments. Presented at Genetic and Evolutionary Computation Conference ; GECCO-99

This paper describes the application of an artificial immune system, (AIS), model to a scheduling application, in which sudden changes in the scheduling environment require the rapid production of new schedules. The model operates in two phases: In t... Read More about An immune system approach to scheduling in changing environments..

Recreating community: a virtual case study. (1999)
Journal Article
Hall, H. (1999). Recreating community: a virtual case study. Education for Information, 17(3), 253-258

The application of the adjective "virtual" to a variety of physical concepts - classroom, company, corporation, library, office - has become common as organisations create new means of conducting business. Through virtual communities mechanisms are i... Read More about Recreating community: a virtual case study..

Teallach: a model-based user interface development environment for object databases (1999)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Griffiths, T., Barclay, P. J., McKirdy, J., Paton, N. W., Gray, P. D., Kennedy, J., Cooper, R., Goble, C. A., West, A., & Smyth, M. (1999, September). Teallach: a model-based user interface development environment for object databases. Presented at User Interfaces to Data Intensive Systems, 1999

Model-based user interface development environments show promise for improving the productivity of user interface developers, and possibly for improving the quality of developed interfaces. However, model-based techniques have rarely been applied to... Read More about Teallach: a model-based user interface development environment for object databases.

The challenge of visualising multiple overlapping classification. (1999)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Graham, M., Kennedy, J., & Hand, C. (1999, September). The challenge of visualising multiple overlapping classification. Presented at IEEE User Interfaces to Data Intensive Systems (UIDIS) 1999

Techniques for visualising hierarchies have concentrated on displaying static structures or, in the case of dynamic hierarchies, adding or deleting nodes from the hierarchy. However, none have adequately dealt with the situation of visualising change... Read More about The challenge of visualising multiple overlapping classification..

Making interactions visible: tools for social browsing. (1999)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Davenport, E., Connolly, R., Spence, R., Buckner, K., Whyte, A., & Barr, K. (1999, May). Making interactions visible: tools for social browsing. Presented at CHI EA '99

The authors describe the problem of 'community myopia': a lack of awareness of people and resources that might assist members of a community to carry out tasks. They present a prototype social browser in two stages: a basic computer based social netw... Read More about Making interactions visible: tools for social browsing..
