Experience with Adaptive Interfaces (1988)
Journal Article
Benyon, D., & Murray, D. (1988). Experience with Adaptive Interfaces. Computer Journal, 31(5), 465-473. https://doi.org/10.1093/comjnl/31.5.465

Over the last few years, adaptive interfaces have become a focus of research. In HCI one system is Monitor, which formed the basis of an adaptive interfaces project funded by the National Physical Laboratory. This paper describes our experiences in w...

Towards a Tool Kit For the Systems Analyst (1987)
Journal Article
Benyon, D., & Skidmore, S. (1987). Towards a Tool Kit For the Systems Analyst. Computer Journal, 30(1), 2-7. https://doi.org/10.1093/comjnl/30.1.2

A review of the major systems analysis methodologies is undertaken in order to examine the aspects of information systems (IS) which they seem best able to represent. The importance of a collection of techniques – the analyst's tool kit – is stressed... Read More about Towards a Tool Kit For the Systems Analyst.

Communicating parallel processes (1986)
Journal Article
Kerridge, J., & Simpson, D. (1986). Communicating parallel processes. Software: Practice and Experience, 16(1), 63-86. https://doi.org/10.1002/spe.4380160106

By considering the problem of an event timer it is shown that the commonly available synchronizing facilities (monitors, CSP, distributed processes) are not able to always satisfactorily model the requirements of several processes which must run in p...

Timed gradient adaptive lattice equaliser. (1985)
Journal Article
Rutter, M., & Grant, P. M. (1985). Timed gradient adaptive lattice equaliser. IEE proceedings. F, Communications, radar, and signal processing, 132, 181-186. https://doi.org/10.1049/ip-f-1%3A19850040

The paper addresses the design of timed stochastic gradient-search adaptive lattice filters for applications
in channel equalisation. Timing the lattice, i.e. freezing the PARCOR recursion, has previously been
shown to offer a significant reduction... Read More about Timed gradient adaptive lattice equaliser..

The application of gradient adaptive lattice filters to channel equalisation (1984)
Journal Article
Grant, P. M., & Rutter, M. (1984). The application of gradient adaptive lattice filters to channel equalisation. IEE proceedings. F, Communications, radar, and signal processing, 131(5), 473-479. https://doi.org/10.1049/ip-f-1%3A19840073

In this paper, the potential application of adaptive lattice equalisers based on gradient search adaptive
algorithms, is examined. The assessment is based on simulations of equaliser performance in data communications
systems which provides a compa... Read More about The application of gradient adaptive lattice filters to channel equalisation.

An architecture and syntax for distributed databases (1984)
Journal Article
Alexander, H., Beetstra, T., Bell, D., Cannan, S., Dee, E., Doyle, P., Fitzgerald, G., French, C., Jefferys, J., Kerridge, J., Pilgrim, W., Rabone, D., Ras, F., Reilly, M., Robinson, H., Stacey, G., & Weatherhead, A.

Recently, there has been a lot of work undertaken in the area of distributed databases. The architecture and syntax presented in this paper is a response to the very real need for the development of a unified approach to distributed databases. The de...

Three solutions for a robot arm controller using Pascal-Plus, occam and edison (1984)
Journal Article
Kerridge, J. M., & Simpson, D. (1984). Three solutions for a robot arm controller using Pascal-Plus, occam and edison. Software: Practice and Experience, 14(1), 3-15. https://doi.org/10.1002/spe.4380140103

Three currently available concurrent language systems, Pascal‐Plus, occam and Edison, are used to implement a controller for a robot arm. The robot arm allows real parallelism of operation within the movements of the arm. The feasibility and restrict...

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.
