Applied PC interfacing, graphics and interrupts. (1996)
Book
Buchanan, W. J. (1996). Applied PC interfacing, graphics and interrupts. Addison Wesley

Using good practical examples, this new book introduces the reader to the component parts of a PC, showing how high and low level languages communicate with them, and how computers communicate with peripherals.

Machine independent algorithm for concurrent finite-element problems (1996)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Buchanan, W. J., & Gupta, N. K. (1996, April). Machine independent algorithm for concurrent finite-element problems. Presented at 3rd International Conference on Computation in Electromagnetics (CEM 96)

The finite-element method, initially developed for mechanical and civil engineering applications, is now applied to electromagnetics. This paper describes how parallel processing applies to finite-element simulations. The methods discussed are the pa...

Analysis of electromagnetic wave propogation using 3D finite-difference time-domain methods with parallel processing. (1996)
Thesis
Buchanan, W. J. Analysis of electromagnetic wave propogation using 3D finite-difference time-domain methods with parallel processing. (Thesis). Edinburgh Napier University. http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/id/eprint/4022

The 3D Finite-Difference Time-Domain (FDTD) method simulates structures in the time-domain using a direct form of Maxwell’s curl equations. This method has the advantage over other simulation methods in that it does not use empirical approximations....
