A Model for Emergent Chaotic Order in Small Neural Networks (2003)
Journal Article
Andras, P. (2003). A Model for Emergent Chaotic Order in Small Neural Networks. Journal of Integrative Neuroscience, 2(1), 55-69. https://doi.org/10.1142/S0219635203000172

A new neural network model is introduced in this paper. The aim of the proposed Sierpinski neural networks is to provide a simple and biologically plausible neural network architecture that produces emergent complex spatio-temporal patterns through t...

Software Suite to Aid Protein Target Identification for Rational Drug Discovery (2003)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Idowu, O., Lynden, S., Periorellis, P., Young, M., & Andras, P. (2003). Software Suite to Aid Protein Target Identification for Rational Drug Discovery. In Cold Spring Harbour Laboratory and Wellcome Trust Conference on Pharmacogenomics

The process of rational drug discovery requires analysis of complex biological systems such as protein-protein interaction, metabolic pathways and gene interaction networks. Our aim is to develop a software suite for data retrieval and analysis that... Read More about Software Suite to Aid Protein Target Identification for Rational Drug Discovery.

The prevalence of functional impairment in Great Britain (2003)
Book Chapter
Clarkson, J., Dong, H., & Keates, S. (2003). The prevalence of functional impairment in Great Britain. In J. Clarkson, R. Coleman, S. Keates, & C. Lebbon (Eds.), Inclusive Design: Design for the Whole Population (360-371). London: Springer. https://doi.or

The general lack of awareness of the wider range of end-user capabilities often results in inconsiderate design that excludes many users, especially older users and users with disabilities. There is a need for designers to understand both the nature... Read More about The prevalence of functional impairment in Great Britain.

Design exclusion (2003)
Book Chapter
Keates, S., & Clarkson, J. (2003). Design exclusion. In J. Clarkson, R. Coleman, S. Keates, & C. Lebbon (Eds.), Inclusive Design: Design for the Whole Population (88-107). London: Springer. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4471-0001-0_6

While inclusive design and universal design are commonly accepted as good design aims, this chapter discusses the merits of focusing on design exclusion. The concept of design exclusion is particularly powerful because identifying why and how end-use... Read More about Design exclusion.

Assessment for inclusive design (2003)
Book Chapter
Cardoso, C., Keates, S., & Clarkson, J. (2003). Assessment for inclusive design. In J. Clarkson, R. Coleman, S. Keates, & C. Lebbon (Eds.), Inclusive Design: Design for the Whole Population (458-477). London: Springer. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4471-0

Many designers view the process of design as primarily creative and informal. They often rely heavily on their intuitive response to the design problem when developing a design solution. As such, without an explicit effort to address the needs of the... Read More about Assessment for inclusive design.

Quantifying Design Exclusion (2003)
Book Chapter
Clarkson, J., Dong, H., & Keates, S. (2003). Quantifying Design Exclusion. In J. Clarkson, S. Keates, R. Coleman, & C. Lebbon (Eds.), Inclusive Design: Design for the Whole Population (422-436). London, UK: Springer. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4471-0

Products make demands of their users which effect their utility and usability. As a result, those users who do not have the capability to use the product are denied access to it. For example, a kettle that is so heavy that a weaker user cannot lift i... Read More about Quantifying Design Exclusion.

Multiple haptic targets for motion-impaired computer users (2003)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Hwang, F., Keates, S., Langdon, P., & Clarkson, P. J. (2003). Multiple haptic targets for motion-impaired computer users. In G. Cockton, & P. Korhonen (Eds.), Proceedings of the SIGCHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems (41-48). https://doi.

Although a number of studies have reported that force feedback gravity wells can improve performance in ?pointand-click? tasks, there have been few studies addressing issues surrounding the use of gravity wells for multiple onscreen targets. This pap... Read More about Multiple haptic targets for motion-impaired computer users.
