Automatic Incident Detection and Driver Warning in PORTICO. (1993)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Bielefeldt, C. (1993). Automatic Incident Detection and Driver Warning in PORTICO.

This paper focuses on the low-volume incident detection and subsequent driver warning objectives of the PORTICO project.

Viewing objects. (1993)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Barclay, P. J., & Kennedy, J. (1993). Viewing objects. In M. Worboys, & A. F. Grundy (Eds.), Advances in databases: Proceedings of the 11th British National Conference on Database Systems (93-110). https://doi.org/10.1007/3-540-56921-9_6

This paper examines the incorporation of database views into an object oriented conceptual model. An approach is presented where views are themselves objects, instances of view classes. These view objects provide new ways of interacting with preexist... Read More about Viewing objects..

Using a persistent system to construct a customised interface to an ecological db. (1993)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Barclay, P. J., Fraser, C., & Kennedy, J. (1992, July). Using a persistent system to construct a customised interface to an ecological db. Presented at 1st International workshop on Interfaces to Database

New applications of information technology have increasingly sophisticated user interface requirements. Such interfaces are sometimes highly application specific and therefore require to be customised to the given application area. Technology is requ...

Rheological spectroscopy of concentrated colloidal dispersions (1993)
Journal Article
Williams, P., Williams, D., & Williams, R. (1993). Rheological spectroscopy of concentrated colloidal dispersions. Colloids and Surfaces A: Physicochemical and Engineering Aspects, 77(1), 75-79. https://doi.org/10.1016/0927-7757%2893%2980101-j

A new instrument, the virtual gap rheometer (VGR) for the determination of dynamic shear moduli (and mechanical relaxation spectra therefrom) at frequencies above 100 Hz is described. Several features of the VGR which make it particularly suited to t... Read More about Rheological spectroscopy of concentrated colloidal dispersions.

Applying user modeling to human-computer interaction design (1993)
Journal Article

Shifting register windows. (1993)
Journal Article
Russell, G., & Shaw, P. (1993). Shifting register windows. IEEE Micro, 13, 28-35. https://doi.org/10.1109/40.229712

Shifting register windows is a new register windowing method that attempts to overcome some of the difficulties of traditional fixed- and variable-sized schemes. Using fewer register elements that a seven-window Sparc organization, shifting register... Read More about Shifting register windows..
