Mastering Microsoft Windows, Novell NetWare and UNIX. (1999)
Book
Buchanan, W. J. (1999). Mastering Microsoft Windows, Novell NetWare and UNIX. Palgrave Publishers

Many computer networks are now a hybrid of different types, typically a mixture of two or more different operating systems. These systems must successfully integrate for the complete system to operate properly, whether it is in terms of its compatibi...

The Teallach tool: Using models for flexible user interface design. (1999)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Barclay, P. J., Griffiths, T., McKirdy, J., Paton, N. W., Cooper, R., & Kennedy, J. (1999). The Teallach tool: Using models for flexible user interface design. In J. Vanderdonckt, & A. Puerta (Eds.), Computer-Aided Design of User Interfaces II. Proceeding

Model-based user interface development environments aim to provide designers with a more systematic approach to user interface development using a particular design method. This method is realised through tools which support the construction and link... Read More about The Teallach tool: Using models for flexible user interface design..

Social Navigation of Information Space. (1999)
Book
(1999). A. J. Munro, K. Hook, & D. Benyon (Eds.), Social Navigation of Information Space. Springer-Verlag

Social navigation is a vibrant new field which examines how we navigate information spaces in "real" and "virtual" environments, how we orient and guide ourselves, and how we interact with and use others to find our way in information spaces. This ap... Read More about Social Navigation of Information Space..

Integrating measurement techniques in an Object-Oriented systems design process. (1999)
Thesis
Li-Thiao-Te, P. systems design process. (Thesis). Edinburgh Napier University. Retrieved from http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/id/eprint/9468

The theme of this thesis is the assessment of quality in class hierarchies. In particular, the notion of inheritance and the mechanism of redefinition from a modelling perspective are reviewed. It is shown that, in Object-Oriented languages, contro... Read More about Integrating measurement techniques in an Object-Oriented systems design process..

Providing views and closure for the object data management group object model (1999)
Journal Article

The ODMG Object Model uses a standard for object-oriented database designers, while attempting to address some issues of interoperability. This research is focused on the viability of using the ODMG data model as a canonical data model in a multid...

Excluding inclusions [PCB inspection] (1999)
Journal Article
Scott, A. V., & Buchanan, W. J. (1999). Excluding inclusions [PCB inspection]. Manufacturing Engineer, 78(4), 154-156. https://doi.org/10.1049/me%3A19990403

The authors look at the causes of a persistent annoyance for manufacturers of printed circuit boards, and suggest some steps that would help to speed inspection and reduce both genuine faults and false rejects from the visual inspection system. This... Read More about Excluding inclusions [PCB inspection].

A multidatabase layer for the ODMG object model (1999)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Roantree, M., Kennedy, J., & Barclay, P. J. (1999). A multidatabase layer for the ODMG object model. In C. Rolland, & G. Grosz (Eds.), Oois '98: Proceedings 1998 International Conference on Object Oriented Information Systems, 9-11 September 1998, Paris (

The lack of a common object model has been addressed to some extent by the specification of the ODMG Object Model standard. However, the problem still exists for designers of object-oriented multidatabase systems. In this research we propose to use t... Read More about A multidatabase layer for the ODMG object model.
