TOUCH: Creating interactional artefacts in a physical world (2000)
Journal Article
Smyth, M. (2000). TOUCH: Creating interactional artefacts in a physical world. Interfaces / the British HCI Group newsletter, 17

The maxim states that seeing is believing but that it is touch that determines reality. Instinctively we reach out to touch those objects that attract or perplex. Touch conveys an intimacy both at a physical and emotional level. In the pursuit of t... Read More about TOUCH: Creating interactional artefacts in a physical world.

Does feeding alter arterial oxygen saturation in patients with acute stroke? (2000)
Journal Article
Rowat, A. M., Wardlaw, J. M., Dennis, M. S., & Warlow, C. P. (2000). Does feeding alter arterial oxygen saturation in patients with acute stroke?. Stroke, 31, 2134-2140. https://doi.org/10.1161/01.STR.31.9.2134

Background and Purpose—We measured arterial oxygen saturation (SaO2) during eating in acute stroke patients to establish the frequency of any meal-related hypoxemia, which could further damage already vulnerable brain tissue. Methods—Stroke patient... Read More about Does feeding alter arterial oxygen saturation in patients with acute stroke?.

The Prometheus database for taxonomy (2000)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Raguenaud, C., Kennedy, J., & Barclay, P. (2000, July). The Prometheus database for taxonomy. Presented at Proceedings. 12th International Conference on Scientific and Statistica Database Management

This paper presents the work carried out in the Prometheus project and its motivation, taxonomy. Taxonomy presents challenges to common database systems. Because of its complexity and the necessary treatments applied to its data, common database mode... Read More about The Prometheus database for taxonomy.

The Prometheus Taxonomic Model: a practical approach to representing multiple classification. (2000)
Journal Article
Pullan, M. R., Watson, M. F., Kennedy, J., Raguenaud, C., & Hyam, R. (2000). The Prometheus Taxonomic Model: a practical approach to representing multiple classification. Taxon, 49, 55-75

A model for representing taxonomic data in a flexible and dynamic system capable of handling and comparing multiple simultaneous classifications is presented. The Prometheus Taxonomic Model takes as its basis the idea that a taxon can be circumscribe...

Software agents and computer network security. (2000)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Pikoulas, J., Mannion, M., & Buchanan, W. J. (2000, April). Software agents and computer network security

Preventing unauthorised access to corporate information systems is essential for many organisations. To address this problem we built a security enhancement software system using software agents, in which a core software agent resides on a server and...

An evaluation of presumed consent legislation in the procurement of organs for transplantation. (2000)
Thesis
Neades, B. L. An evaluation of presumed consent legislation in the procurement of organs for transplantation. (Thesis). University of Glasgow. Retrieved from http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/id/eprint/7750

Within the U.K. the crisis in the numbers of organs available for transplantation has featured strongly in the health care literature over the past five to ten years. Under the terms of the Human Tissues Act 1961 (166) many strategies to increase the...

Organ donation in A & E; legal and ethical implications for the A & E nurse (2000)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Neades, B. L. (1999). Organ donation in A & E; legal and ethical implications for the A & E nurse

In the U.K. the requirement for organs grows daily and sadly many people will die before an organ for transplant becomes available. In an effort to improve the supply of organs some clinicians are now looking to the A&E department to identify potenti...

What - at first sight - appears a straightforward question turns o... Read More about Are women better drivers than men?.

Choice of spectroscopic line shape model affects metabolite peak areas and area ratios. (2000)
Journal Article
Marshall, I., Bruce, S. D., Higinbotham, J., MacLullich, A., Wardlaw, J. M., Ferguson, K. J., & Seckl, J. (2000). Choice of spectroscopic line shape model affects metabolite peak areas and area ratios. Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, 44, 646-649. doi:10.1002/1522-2594(200010)44:43.0.CO;2-0

The use of Lorentzian model lineshapes leads to systematic errors in the quantification of in vivo (1)H NMR spectra. Experimental lineshapes are better modeled by the Voigt (mixed Lorentzian-Gaussian) function, leading to more accurate fits (reduced...
