Scrivener, S. A. R., Clark, S., Smyth, M., Harris, D., & Rockoff, T. (1992, November). Designing at a distance: experiments in remote-synchronous design. Presented at OZCHI’92: Interface technology – Advancing human-computer communication

Control of a large massively parallel database machine using SQL catalogue extensions, and a DSDL in preference to an operating system (1992)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Unwalla, M., & Kerridge, J. (1992, July). Control of a large massively parallel database machine using SQL catalogue extensions, and a DSDL in preference to an operating system. Presented at Advanced Database Systems: 10th British National Conference on Databases, BNCOD 10, Aberdeen, Scotland

The IDIOMS parallel database machine supports large applications where integrated OLTP and MIS is required. It can be considered a relational engine, and SQL is used as the MIS query language. We make some comparisons between IDIOMS and other databas...

Regaining the conceptual level in object oriented modelling (1991)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Barclay, P. J., & Kennedy, J. (1991). Regaining the conceptual level in object oriented modelling. In Proceedings of the 9th British National Conference on Databases, Aspects of Databases, (BNCOD 9) (269-305)

This paper attempts to develop a conceptual model for the object oriented description of data. We abstract from various logical model features essential for thinking about data in an object oriented framework. These features are presented through exa...

Simulation of three-dimensional finite-difference time-domain method on limited memory systems. (1991)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Buchanan, W. J., & Gupta, N. K. (1991). Simulation of three-dimensional finite-difference time-domain method on limited memory systems.

The authors discuss techniques in the modelling of electromagnetic fields using finite difference time domain (FDTD) methods applied to 80×86-based PCs or limited memory computers. Electrical modelling of structures is currently carried out mainly in... Read More about Simulation of three-dimensional finite-difference time-domain method on limited memory systems..

Design, abstract data types and occam (1989)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kerridge, J., Wright, S., & Oates, R. (1989). Design, abstract data types and occam. In Applying Transputer Based Parallel Machines: OUG-10, proceedings of the 10th Occam User Group Technical Meeting (29-45)

A design methodology is presented whereby abstract data types are mapped onto occam processes. For each function a command and reply protocol is specified. Attention is paid to the formal specification. The method may be useful in obtaining a paralle... Read More about Design, abstract data types and occam.
