An Appreciation of the Subtleties of Shared Channels in occam3 (1993)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Waithe, S., & Kerridge, J. (1993, March). An Appreciation of the Subtleties of Shared Channels in occam3. Presented at 16th World occam* and Transputer User Group Technical Meeting (WoTUG-16), Sheffield, UK

By exploiting virtual channels implemented on the INMOS T9000 transputer, occam3 offers the facility of sharing. This allows us to declare a channel as SHARED which then allows an arbitrary number of processes to communicate across this channel. By m...

State changes in brain activity shown by the uptake of 99mTc-exametazime with single photon emission tomography in major depression before and after treatment. Journal of Affective Disorders, 29(4), 243-253. https://doi.org/10.1016/0165-0327%2893%2990014-b

Twenty-eight patients with a major depressive episode previously investigated at rest using Single Photon Emission Tomography (SPET or SPECT) with 99mTc-exametazime, were followed up at an interval of 9–28 months with the same investigation after ful...

Automatic Position and Orientation Correction for Automated Assembly Robots (1993)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Rea, H. J., Raeside, R., & Lewis, J. (1993, March). Automatic Position and Orientation Correction for Automated Assembly Robots. Presented at Thirtieth International MATADOR Conference, Manchester, UK

For assembly purposes, robot accuracy is critical only in small well-defined volumes, such as immediately over a pallet or work table where pieces are being lifted and assembled. Since the volumes are small it is possible to consider the robot system... Read More about Automatic Position and Orientation Correction for Automated Assembly Robots.

Adaptive systems: A solution to usability problems (1993)
Journal Article
Benyon, D. (1993). Adaptive systems: A solution to usability problems. User Modeling and User-Adapted Interaction, 3(1), 65-87. https://doi.org/10.1007/bf01099425

Improving the usability of computer systems is perhaps the most important goal of human-computer interaction research. Current approaches to usability engineering tend to focus on simply improving the interface. An alternative is to build intelligenc...

Adaptive systems: from intelligent tutoring to autonomous agents (1993)
Journal Article
Benyon, D., & Murray, D. (1993). Adaptive systems: from intelligent tutoring to autonomous agents. Knowledge-Based Systems, 6(4), 197-219. https://doi.org/10.1016/0950-7051%2893%2990012-i

Computer systems which can automatically alter aspects of their functionality or interface to suit the needs of individuals or groups of users have appeared over the years in a variety of guises. Most recently, attention has focused on intelligent in... Read More about Adaptive systems: from intelligent tutoring to autonomous agents.

External stimuli and intracellular signalling in the modification of the nematode surface during transition to the mammalian host environment (1993)
Journal Article
Proudfoot, L., Kusel, J. R., Smith, H. V., & Kennedy, M. W. (1993). External stimuli and intracellular signalling in the modification of the nematode surface during transition to the mammalian host environment. Parasitology, 107(05), 559. https://doi.org/10.1017/s0031182000068141

Previous work has shown that the surface of infective larvae of parasitic nematodes will not bind the fluorescent lipid analogue 5-N(octadecanoyl)aminofluorescein (AF18) until after exposure of the parasite to mammalian tissue-culture conditions. In... Read More about External stimuli and intracellular signalling in the modification of the nematode surface during transition to the mammalian host environment.

Sequence and Novel Distribution of the Chicken Homologue of the Mammalianγ-Aminobutyric AcidAReceptorγ1 Subunit (1993)
Journal Article
Glencorse, T. A., Darlison, M. G., Barnard, E. A., & Bateson, A. N. (1993). Sequence and Novel Distribution of the Chicken Homologue of the Mammalianγ-Aminobutyric AcidAReceptorγ1 Subunit. Journal of Neurochemistry, 61(6), 2294-2302. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1471-4159.1993.tb07473.x

cDNAs have been cloned that encode the chicken (Gallus domesticus) γ-aminobutyric acidA receptor γ1 subunit, the mature sequence of which shares 90, 79, and 69% identity with those of the rat γ1, γ2., and γ3 subunits, respectively. In situ hybridizat... Read More about Sequence and Novel Distribution of the Chicken Homologue of the Mammalianγ-Aminobutyric AcidAReceptorγ1 Subunit.
