Generation of codes with good autocorrelation properties (1983)
Journal Article
Rutter, M., & Grant, P. M. (1983). Generation of codes with good autocorrelation properties. Electronics Letters, 19, 571-572. https://doi.org/10.1049/el%3A19830389

The letter describes a conceptually simple method of generating impulse equivalent burst and cyclic codes, using an all-pass autoregressive moving average (ARMA) filter. These infinite impulse response burst codes may be converted into cyclic cod... Read More about Generation of codes with good autocorrelation properties.

Open-loop transversal equaliser of optimal length (1983)
Journal Article
Rutter, M., & Cowan, C. F. N. (1983). Open-loop transversal equaliser of optimal length. Electronics Letters, 19, 208-210. https://doi.org/10.1049/el%3A19830144

As a rule, in equaliser training algorithms complexity increases with efficiency. Unfortunately, complex recursive algorithms do not suit high-bandwidth systems. This letter describes a nonrecursive technique for the derivation of the weight vect... Read More about Open-loop transversal equaliser of optimal length.

The activities of the BCS/CODASYL DDLC DBAWG (1982)
Journal Article
Kerridge, J. (1982). The activities of the BCS/CODASYL DDLC DBAWG. Computers and Standards, 1(2-3), 161-165. https://doi.org/10.1016/0167-8051%2882%2990025-0

The DBAWG is a research group, based in the United Kingdom, which is working on facilities for data administration. In particular the DBAWG has developed language specifications for a Data Storage Description Language (DSDL) for a CODASYL type databa...

A FORTRAN implementation of Concurrent Pascal (1982)
Journal Article
Kerridge, J. M. (1982). A FORTRAN implementation of Concurrent Pascal. Software: Practice and Experience, 12(1), 45-55. https://doi.org/10.1002/spe.4380120105

This paper describes the transportation of sequential and concurrent Pascal from the SOLO distribution tape to a non‐PDP‐11 like mainframe (IBM 370/145). An interpreter for the idealized virtual machine was written in FORTRAN. Subsequently the PDP‐11... Read More about A FORTRAN implementation of Concurrent Pascal.

A simulator for teaching computer architecture (1980)
Journal Article
Kerridge, J. M., & Willis, N. (1980). A simulator for teaching computer architecture. Sigcse Bulletin, 12(2), 65-71. https://doi.org/10.1145/989253.989264

This paper describes the specification, implementation and use of a computer system simulator. The simulator project was begun as a result of teaching a second year undergraduate course in computer systems.It became apparent that students only fully...

PATCOSY--A Database System for the National Health Service (1976)
Journal Article
Kerridge, J. M. (1976). PATCOSY--A Database System for the National Health Service. Computer Journal, 19(2), 98-103. https://doi.org/10.1093/comjnl/19.2.98

PATCOSY (PATient COmputer SYstem) is a data base system which has been designed specifically for the National Health Service environment. The structure of PATCOSY therefore reflects the structure and inter-relationships which exist between the inform... Read More about PATCOSY--A Database System for the National Health Service.

Who would you trust to identify you in accessing your health record?
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Buchanan, W. J., Anderson, C., Smales, A., Varga, J., Burns, N., Uthmani, O., …Lawson, A. Who would you trust to identify you in accessing your health record?

Within health and social care there is a strong need to provide access to highly sensitive information, and one which requires high levels of identity assurance. This paper outlines a joint project between Edinburgh Napier University and miiCard [10]... Read More about Who would you trust to identify you in accessing your health record?.

HUWY D7.3. Sustainability and Scalability Plan.
Report
Taylor-Smith, E., Gibson, G., Kimpeler, S., O'Kane, F., McCusker, P., Rößler, A., & Visnapuu, T. (2011). HUWY D7.3. Sustainability and Scalability Plan. Edinburgh: European Commission

The HUWY project is piloting a distributed discussion model for eParticipation in which young people?s discussions, on Internet policy issues, are networked together by “hub” websites. The HUWY pilot ran in Estonia, Germany, Ireland and the UK betwee... Read More about HUWY D7.3. Sustainability and Scalability Plan..
