A Database System for Supporting Taxonomic Work (1999)
Conference Proceeding
Raguenaud, C., Kennedy, J., & Barclay, P. J. (1999). A Database System for Supporting Taxonomic Work.

Taxonomists classify organisms in order to refer to, identify and understand them. Over time, the same organism may be classified according to different taxonomic opinions. As alternative classifications multiply, taxonomists are faced with the need... Read More about A Database System for Supporting Taxonomic Work.

The Teallach tool: Using models for flexible user interface design. (1999)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Barclay, P. J., Griffiths, T., McKirdy, J., Paton, N. W., Cooper, R., & Kennedy, J. (1999). The Teallach tool: Using models for flexible user interface design. In J. Vanderdonckt, & A. Puerta (Eds.), Computer-Aided Design of User Interfaces II. Proceeding

Model-based user interface development environments aim to provide designers with a more systematic approach to user interface development using a particular design method. This method is realised through tools which support the construction and link... Read More about The Teallach tool: Using models for flexible user interface design..

The challenge of visualising multiple overlapping classification. (1999)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Graham, M., Kennedy, J., & Hand, C. (1999). The challenge of visualising multiple overlapping classification. In N. W. Paton, & T. Griffiths (Eds.), Proceedings [of] IEEE User Interfaces to Data Intensive Systems (UIDIS) 1999 (42-51). https://doi.org/10.1

Techniques for visualising hierarchies have concentrated on displaying static structures or, in the case of dynamic hierarchies, adding or deleting nodes from the hierarchy. However, none have adequately dealt with the situation of visualising change... Read More about The challenge of visualising multiple overlapping classification..

Teallach: a model-based user interface development environment for object databases (1999)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Griffiths, T., Barclay, P. J., McKirdy, J., Paton, N. W., Gray, P. D., Kennedy, J., …Smyth, M. (1999). Teallach: a model-based user interface development environment for object databases. In Proceedings [IEEE] User Interfaces to Data Intensive Systems

Model-based user interface development environments show promise for improving the productivity of user interface developers, and possibly for improving the quality of developed interfaces. However, model-based techniques have rarely been applied to... Read More about Teallach: a model-based user interface development environment for object databases.

Providing views and closure for the object data management group object model (1999)
Journal Article
Roantree, M., Kennedy, J., & Barclay, P. (1999). Providing views and closure for the object data management group object model. Information and Software Technology, 41(15), 1037-1044. https://doi.org/10.1016/s0950-5849%2899%2900042-7

The ODMG Object Model uses a standard for object-oriented database designers, while attempting to address some issues of interoperability. This research is focused on the viability of using the ODMG data model as a canonical data model in a multid...

A multidatabase layer for the ODMG object model (1999)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Roantree, M., Kennedy, J., & Barclay, P. J. (1999). A multidatabase layer for the ODMG object model. In C. Rolland, & G. Grosz (Eds.), Oois '98: Proceedings 1998 International Conference on Object Oriented Information Systems, 9-11 September 1998, Paris (

The lack of a common object model has been addressed to some extent by the specification of the ODMG Object Model standard. However, the problem still exists for designers of object-oriented multidatabase systems. In this research we propose to use t... Read More about A multidatabase layer for the ODMG object model.
