PEDFLOW - A System for Modelling Pedestrian Movement Using occam (1999)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kerridge, J., & McNair, N. (1999, April). PEDFLOW - A System for Modelling Pedestrian Movement Using occam. Presented at Architectures, Languages and Techniques for Concurrent Systems, University of Keele

Road traffic modelling and simulation is currently, well provided with a variety of packages dealing with the minute detail of road layouts from single isolated junction models to complete network simulations. There has also been much work in develop... Read More about PEDFLOW - A System for Modelling Pedestrian Movement Using occam.

The Prometheus Database Model (1999)
Report
Raguenaud, C., Kennedy, J., & Barclay, P. The Prometheus Database Model. Napier University

This report presents the Prometheus database model. The model is designed to satisfy the requirements expressed in a previous document [RKB99]. The new model is based on a graph model and is extended with some mechanisms existing in other models (e.g... Read More about The Prometheus Database Model.

Metaphors and models: conceptual foundations of representations for interactive systems design (1999)
Journal Article
Benyon, D., & Imaz, M. (1999). Metaphors and models: conceptual foundations of representations for interactive systems design. Human-Computer Interaction, 14(1-2), 159-189. https://doi.org/10.1080/07370024.1999.9667268

When system developers design a computer system (or other information artifact), they must inevitably make judgments as to how to abstract the worksystem and how to represent this abstraction in their designs. In the past, such abstractions have been... Read More about Metaphors and models: conceptual foundations of representations for interactive systems design.

Multiple traffic signal control using a genetic algorithm (1999)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kalganova, T., Russell, G., & Cumming, A. (1999, December). Multiple traffic signal control using a genetic algorithm. Presented at 4th International Conference on Artificial Neural Networks and Genetic Algorithms, ICANNGA '99

Optimising traffic signal timings for a multiple-junction road network is a difficult but important problem. The essential difficulty of this problem is that the traffic signals need to coordinate their behaviours to achieve the common goal of optimi...

The continuous equilibrium optimal network design problem: a genetic approach. (1999)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Cree, N. D., Maher, M., & Paechter, B. (1996, September). The continuous equilibrium optimal network design problem: a genetic approach. Presented at Transportation Networks: Recent Methodological Advances 4th EURO Transportation Meeting

A genetic algorithm (GA) program for providing a solution to the Continuous Equilibrium Network Design Problem (NDP) is introduced following a general discussion of the network design problem and genetic algorithms. A description of the current GA op... Read More about The continuous equilibrium optimal network design problem: a genetic approach..

‘Alive’ on the internet: A user‐centred evaluation of BIS‐online (1999)
Journal Article
Gillham, M., & Hall, H. (1999). ‘Alive’ on the internet: A user‐centred evaluation of BIS‐online. New Review of Academic Librarianship, 5(1), 61-79. https://doi.org/10.1080/13614539909516790

Recent UK government initiatives have encouraged academic staff to consider using IT to enhance students' experience of higher education in terms of its quality, flexibility and effectiveness. In 1999 second year undergraduate students studying Infor... Read More about ‘Alive’ on the internet: A user‐centred evaluation of BIS‐online.
