The Prometheus taxonomic database (2000)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Raguenaud, C., Kennedy, J., & Barclay, P. (2000, November). The Prometheus taxonomic database. Presented at IEEE International Symposium on Bio-Informatics and Biomedical Engineering, Arlington, VA, USA

M.R. Pullen et al. (2000) have designed a new model of plant taxonomy (called Prometheus); it supports multiple overlapping classifications, and distinguishes the process of naming from classifying. The concepts identified in this taxonomic model nec... Read More about The Prometheus taxonomic database.

Neural Network Approximation of Fuzzy Logic Operators (2000)
Journal Article
Andras, P., Kaban, A., & Bossanyi, R. (2000). Neural Network Approximation of Fuzzy Logic Operators. Annales universitatis occidentalis timisiensis series philosophia, XII, 147-159

We investigate in this paper how to use neural networks to help the development of efficient fuzzy decision systems. First we review the basic theories of fuzzy logic and neural networks, and we look at the main applications of the artificial neural...

A query mediation approach to interoperability of heterogeneous databases (2000)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Huang, H.-C., Kerridge, J., & Chen, S.-L. (2000, January). A query mediation approach to interoperability of heterogeneous databases. Presented at 11th Australasian Database Conference (ADC) 2000, Canberra, ACT, Australia

The need to transform queries between heterogeneous databases arises in many circumstances, including query transformation between a global and a local query. This paper describes a query mediation approach to the interoperability of heterogeneous da... Read More about A query mediation approach to interoperability of heterogeneous databases.

Small group design activity and requirements on collaborative technologies. (2000)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Turner, S., & Cross, N. (2000, September). Small group design activity and requirements on collaborative technologies. Presented at CoDesign 2000, Coventry

In the last decade or so, many collaborative technologies have been developed which aim to allow people in geographically distributed locations to work together as if sharing the same space. Such tools range from the simple asynchronous resources of... Read More about Small group design activity and requirements on collaborative technologies..

TOUCH: Creating interactional artefacts in a physical world (2000)
Journal Article
Smyth, M. (2000). TOUCH: Creating interactional artefacts in a physical world. Interfaces / the British HCI Group newsletter, 17

The maxim states that seeing is believing but that it is touch that determines reality. Instinctively we
reach out to touch those objects that attract or perplex. Touch conveys an intimacy both at a physical
and emotional level. In the pursuit of t... Read More about TOUCH: Creating interactional artefacts in a physical world.

Supporting decision making in design using shape grammars. (2000)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Smyth, M. (2000, October). Supporting decision making in design using shape grammars. Presented at DMUCE 00, Second International Conference on Decision Making in Urban and Civil Engineering

This paper describes part of the development process of a system aimed at supporting the work of interior architects. Two prototype systems are described together with detailed interviews conducted with a professional design practitioner. It will be...
