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...

Abstraction: a key notation for reverse engineering in a system re-engineering approach. (2000)
Journal Article
Yang, H., Liu, X., & Zedan, H. (2000). Abstraction: a key notation for reverse engineering in a system re-engineering approach. Journal of Software: Evolution and Process, 12, 197-228. https://doi.org/10.1002/1096-908X%28200007/08%2912%3A43.0.CO%3B2-X

This paper advocates that extracting formal specification semantically consistent to the original legacy system will facilitate further redesign and forward engineering greatly. The three parts of reengineering could be integrated on the basis of a w... Read More about Abstraction: a key notation for reverse engineering in a system re-engineering approach..

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.

The Prometheus Taxonomic Model: a practical approach to representing multiple classification. (2000)
Journal Article
Pullan, M. R., Watson, M. F., Kennedy, J., Raguenaud, C., & Hyam, R. (2000). The Prometheus Taxonomic Model: a practical approach to representing multiple classification. Taxon, 49, 55-75

A model for representing taxonomic data in a flexible and dynamic system capable of handling and comparing multiple simultaneous classifications is presented. The Prometheus Taxonomic Model takes as its basis the idea that a taxon can be circumscribe...

Narratives of new media in Scottish households: the evolution of a framework of enquiry. (2000)
Journal Article
Davenport, E., Higgins, M., & Somerville, I. (2000). Narratives of new media in Scottish households: the evolution of a framework of enquiry. Journal of the American Society for Information Science and Technology, 51, 900-912. https://doi.org/10.1002/1097-4571%282000%2951%3A103.0.CO%3B2-U

The authors describe a study of the social dynamics of new media in Scottish households. The evolving project drew on dialogues with multiple household members elicited in group conversations. This approach to interviews captured different and confli... Read More about Narratives of new media in Scottish households: the evolution of a framework of enquiry..

Knowledge management; semantic drift or conceptual shift? (2000)
Journal Article
Davenport, E., & Cronin, B. (2000). Knowledge management; semantic drift or conceptual shift?. Journal of Education for Library and Information Science, 41(4), 294-306. https://doi.org/10.2307/40324047

This paper offers an exploration of knowledge management (KM), a concept only partially understood in domains that use the term. Three such domains are described: library and information science (LIS), business administration, and organization theory...

Evaluating arrhythmias in ECG signals using wavelet transforms. (2000)
Journal Article
Addison, P., Watson, J. N., Clegg, G. R., Holzer, M., Sterz, F., & Robertson, C. E. (2000). Evaluating arrhythmias in ECG signals using wavelet transforms. IEEE engineering in medicine & biology magazine the quarterly magazine of the Engineering in Medicine & Biology Society, 19, 104-109. https://doi.org/10.1109/51.870237

Recent work has attempted to utilize wavelet techniques in the analysis of biomedical signals including ECGs. Here, the authors present an energy-based method of interrogating the ECG in VF using high-resolution, log-scale continuous wavelet plots. W...

A framework for engineering metaphor at the user interface (2000)
Journal Article
Alty, J., Knott, R., Anderson, B., & Smyth, M. (2000). A framework for engineering metaphor at the user interface. Interacting with Computers, 13(2), 301-322. https://doi.org/10.1016/s0953-5438%2800%2900047-3

Interface metaphors facilitate the learning of new computer systems by supporting the transformation of existing knowledge in order to improve the comprehension of novel situations. However, there is very little guidance for software designers on how... Read More about A framework for engineering metaphor at the user interface.
