Generic Abstract Data Types in occam'3 (e) (1995)
Conference Proceeding
Chutimaskul, W., & Kerridge, J. (1995). Generic Abstract Data Types in occam'3 (e). In J. Gray, & F. Naghdy (Eds.), Parallel Computing: Technology and Practice : proceedings of the 7th Australian Transputer and Occam user Group Conference (58-67)

This paper describes the library mechanism for defining generic abstract data types (generic ADTs) as an extension to occam3 (occam3(e)). A generic ADT must be able to reuse either base data types or pre-defined data types and existing operations.... Read More about Generic Abstract Data Types in occam'3 (e).

Keane (Eds.), Advances in Databases: 13th British National Conference on Databases, BNCOD 13 Manchester, United Kingdom, July 12–14, 1995 Proceedings (263-276). https://doi.org/10.1007/bfb0000552

The goal of any designer building a scalable database machine is to ensure that the interface between the relational processing part of the machine and the storage system is independent of the actual storage media. The interface should be as high a l... Read More about W-SQL an interface for scalable, highly parallel, database machines.

Generic Matrices in occam3(e) (1995)
Conference Proceeding
Chutimaskul, W., & Kerridge, J. (1995). Generic Matrices in occam3(e). In Transputer Research and Applications 7 (NATUG-7): Proceedings of the Seventh Conference of the North American Transputer Users Group (255)

The possibility of enhancing the occam3 type system to support genericity for the purpose of reusability can be realised by means of user-defined parameterised types (UPTs) and overloading. A UPT is a mechanism for the reuse of data types and is empl... Read More about Generic Matrices in occam3(e).

National Lotteries: An Exercise in Parallel Data Management Design (1995)
Conference Proceeding
Kerridge, J. M., & North, S. (1995). National Lotteries: An Exercise in Parallel Data Management Design. In Transputer Applications and Systems ’95 (441)

The advent of a National Lottery in the United Kingdom prompted the thought about how one would design a highly parallel system to manage such an activity, especially, as the solution adopted by the lottery company was to use a parallel database mach...
