Functional languages on linear chromosomes (1996)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Holmes, P., & Barclay, P. J. (1996). Functional languages on linear chromosomes. In Proceedings of the 1st annual conference on genetic programming (427)

Ayala & Kiger (1984) document a biological phenomenon in which co-adapted genes migrate and naturally cluster together into structures called supergenes. We have begun research into the implications of the supergene effect on the efficiency of evolut... Read More about Functional languages on linear chromosomes.

TOTEM: an Interactive Tool for Creative Data Modelling (1996)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Crerar, A., Barclay, P. J., & Watt, R. (1996, July). TOTEM: an Interactive Tool for Creative Data Modelling. Presented at 3rd International Workshop on Interfaces to Databases, Napier University, Edinburgh

Data modelling is a crucial and early step in the design of all but the most trivial database systems. Although a fundamental skill for information systems designers, data modelling is not easy to do well and novices are known to have considerable di...

A framework for user-interfaces to databases (1996)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Mitchell, K., Kennedy, J., & Barclay, P. J. (1996, May). A framework for user-interfaces to databases. Presented at International Workshop on Advanced Visual Interfaces, AVI\'96

A framework for user-interfaces to databases (IDSs) is proposed which draws from existing research on human computer interaction (HCI) and database systems. The framework is described in terms of a classification of the characteristic components of a... Read More about A framework for user-interfaces to databases.

The use of local search suggestion lists for improving the solution of timetable problems with evolutionary algorithms. (1995)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Paechter, B., Cumming, A., & Luchian, H. (1995). The use of local search suggestion lists for improving the solution of timetable problems with evolutionary algorithms. In Evolutionary Computing (86-93). https://doi.org/10.1007/3-540-60469-3_27

This paper presents a new genetic representation for timetabling with evolutionary algorithms. The representation involves the use of suggestion lists for the placement of events into timeslots. A set of recombination operators is defined for the new... Read More about The use of local search suggestion lists for improving the solution of timetable problems with evolutionary algorithms..

W-SQL an interface for scalable, highly parallel, database machines (1995)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kerridge, J., Walter, D., & Guiton, R. (1995, July). W-SQL an interface for scalable, highly parallel, database machines. Presented at British National Conference on Databases (BNCOD) 1995: Advances in Databases, Manchester, UK

The goal of any designer building a scalable database machine is to ensure that the interface between the relational processing part of the machine and the storage system is independent of the actual storage media. The interface should be as high a l... Read More about W-SQL an interface for scalable, highly parallel, database machines.

Generic Matrices in occam3(e) (1995)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Chutimaskul, W., & Kerridge, J. (1995). Generic Matrices in occam3(e). In Transputer Research and Applications 7 (NATUG-7): Proceedings of the Seventh Conference of the North American Transputer Users Group (255)

The possibility of enhancing the occam3 type system to support genericity for the purpose of reusability can be realised by means of user-defined parameterised types (UPTs) and overloading. A UPT is a mechanism for the reuse of data types and is empl... Read More about Generic Matrices in occam3(e).
