A general model for the answer-pertubation techniques. (1994)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Stamate, D., Luchian, H., & Paechter, B. (1994, September). A general model for the answer-pertubation techniques

Answer-perturbation techniques for the protection
of statistical databases were introduced in [7]; they
are flexible (perturbation kept under control),
modular (do not interact with the DBMS)
techniques, which compare fmorably to previous
protec... Read More about A general model for the answer-pertubation techniques..

Recent developments in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), Computer Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW) and Distributed Artificial Intelligence (DAI) share a common problem: communication. We are moving towards a situation of multiple interacting systems... Read More about A Functional Model of Interacting Systems: A Semiotic Approach.

Adaptive lane finding in road traffic image analysis (1994)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Stewart, B., Reading, I., Thomson, M., Binnie, T. D., Dickinson, K., & Wan, C. (1994, April). Adaptive lane finding in road traffic image analysis. Presented at Seventh International Conference on Road Traffic Monitoring and Control, London, UK

The application of image processing and computer vision techniques to the analysis of video sequences of traffic flow offers considerable improvements over the existing methods of traffic data collection. The key to the development of a road monitori... Read More about Adaptive lane finding in road traffic image analysis.

Modelling saturated traffic networks using massively parallel computing techniques (1994)
Journal Article
Lu, K., Jones, J., & Kerridge, J. (1994). Modelling saturated traffic networks using massively parallel computing techniques. Traffic engineering & control, 35(7/8), 433-436

A technique for modelling the flow of motor vehicle traffic in congested urban signal-controlled networks using parallel computing is presented. A brief overview of traffic simulation and control precedes a discussion of the future requirements for c...

Evaluation of high performance parallel database machines (1994)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kerridge, J., Jelly, I., & Bates, C. (1994, April). Evaluation of high performance parallel database machines. Presented at HPCN-Europe: International Conference on High-Performance Computing and Networking 1994, Munich, Germany

Many organisations are considering the use of large relational databases to implement their information needs. For large organisations this will result in the implementation of a machine dedicated to that task. In the near future, these database mach...

Dynamic Allocation of Tasks in occam3 (1994)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kerridge, J., & Nixon, P. (1994, September). Dynamic Allocation of Tasks in occam3. Presented at World Transputer Congress 1994, Villa Erba, Cernobbio, Lake Como, Italy

In many application environments there is a need to able to allocate resources dynamically. The occam programming language has no concept of such dynamic allocation. This paper shows how dynamic allocation can be incorporated into occam without sacri... Read More about Dynamic Allocation of Tasks in occam3.

A strategy for semantic integrity enforcement in a parallel database machine (1994)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
McCarroll, N., & Kerridge, J. (1994, July). A strategy for semantic integrity enforcement in a parallel database machine. Presented at Directions in Databases: 12th British National Conference on Databases, BNCOD 12, Guildford, UK

Semantic integrity constraints represent knowledge about data with which a relational database must be consistent. To enforce semantic integrity we must ensure that transactions which alter the database will preserve database consistency by accompany...
