This paper presents a case study of the development of a visualization to represent and explore the relationships between multiple hierarchical structures, specifically botanical taxonomies. The case study outlines the visualization's development fro... Read More about Towards a methodology for developing visualizations.

Supporting design through the strategic use of shape grammars (2000)
Journal Article
Edmonds, E., Smyth, M., & Edmonds, E. A. (2000). Supporting design through the strategic use of shape grammars. Knowledge-Based Systems, 13(6), 385-393. https://doi.org/10.1016/s0950-7051%2800%2900079-4

This paper is concerned with the early processes of design, particularly in the context of spatial arrangements. We are interested in the strategies that a designer uses in order to achieve success and with the opportunities that might exist for comp...

Investigating the applicability of user models for motion-impaired users (2000)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Keates, S., Clarkson, J., & Robinson, P. (2000, November). Investigating the applicability of user models for motion-impaired users. Presented at ASSETS '00 The 4th ACM SIGCAPH Conference on Assistive Technologies, Arlington, Virginia, USA

This paper considers the differences between users with motion-impairments and able-bodied users when they interact with computers and the implications for user models. Most interface design and usability assessment practices are based on explicit or... Read More about Investigating the applicability of user models for motion-impaired users.

Towards a practical inclusive design approach (2000)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Keates, S., Clarkson, P. J., Harrison, L.-A., & Robinson, P. (2000, November). Towards a practical inclusive design approach. Presented at CUU '00 2000 conference on Universal Usability, Arlington, Virginia, USA

It is known that many products are not accessible to large sections of the population. Designers instinctively design for able-bodied users and are either unaware of the needs of users with different capabilities, or do not know how to accommodate th...

Aspects of diagnostic schemes for biomedical and engineering systems (2000)
Journal Article
Jones, N., Pont, M., Spurgeon, S., Goh, K., Parikh, C., Lim, C., & Twiddle, J. (2000). Aspects of diagnostic schemes for biomedical and engineering systems. IEE proceedings. Science, measurement and technology, 147(6), 357-362. https://doi.org/10.1049/ip-smt%3A20000859

The paper considers aspects of work carried out on projects in medical diagnostics and engineering fault detection and control, and shows the development of some ideas in signal processing and diagnostic techniques; in particular regarding models, es...

A direct approach to analysing step changes (2000)
Journal Article
Kubie, J. (2000). A direct approach to analysing step changes. Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part C: Journal of Mechanical Engineering Science, 214(11), 1437-1441. https://doi.org/10.1243/0954406001523407

There are many processes in engineering in which a physical parameter y normally varies linearly with another physical parameter x, but where, on occasion, a step change in the variation of parameter y may occur. A typical example of this phenomenon... Read More about A direct approach to analysing step changes.

Clinical guidelines and the translation of texts into care: overcoming professional conflicts concerning evidence‐based practice (2000)
Journal Article
Davenport, E. (2000). Clinical guidelines and the translation of texts into care: overcoming professional conflicts concerning evidence‐based practice. Journal of Documentation, 56(5), 505-519. https://doi.org/10.1108/eum0000000007125

The difficulties of basing healthcare on literary warrant have been explained in different ways: busy practitioners have no time to read extensively, physical access is difficult, and adequate surrogates for texts like indexes, abstracts, systematic...

Sound transmission through lightweight parallel plates. Part II: structure-borne sound (2000)
Journal Article
Craik, R. J. M., & Smith, S. (2000). Sound transmission through lightweight parallel plates. Part II: structure-borne sound. Applied Acoustics, 61(2), 247-269. https://doi.org/10.1016/S0003-682X%2899%2900071-7

In Part I of this paper sound transmission through double leaf lightweight partitions was examined. It was shown that an important part of the overall transmission is determined by structure-borne sound transmission between the two leaves of the wall...

Sound transmission through double leaf lightweight partitions part I: airborne sound (2000)
Journal Article
Craik, R. J. M., & Smith, S. (2000). Sound transmission through double leaf lightweight partitions part I: airborne sound. Applied Acoustics, 61(2), 223-245. https://doi.org/10.1016/S0003-682X%2899%2900070-5

Statistical energy analysis (SEA) is used to model sound transmission through double leaf lightweight partitions. It is found that the best SEA model depends on the frequency range considered and the method of construction. At low frequencies the wal...

Mismatch unemployment and local labour market eficiency: the role of employer and vacancy characteristics. (2000)
Journal Article
Adams, J., Greig, M., & McQuaid, R. W. (2000). Mismatch unemployment and local labour market eficiency: the role of employer and vacancy characteristics. Environment and Planning A, 32(10), 1841-1856. https://doi.org/10.1068/a3342

Much of the theoretical and policy debate on local labour markets has focused upon
improving the educational, training, and other `supply-side' characteristics of job seekers. However,
complementary employer `demand-side' factors, in particular the... Read More about Mismatch unemployment and local labour market eficiency: the role of employer and vacancy characteristics..
