Individual differences and inclusive design. (2001)
Book Chapter
Benyon, D., Crerar, A., & Wilkinson, S. (2001). Individual differences and inclusive design. In C. Stephanidis (Ed.), User interfaces for all: Concepts, methods and tools (21-46). Lawrence Erlbaum

Usability is widely recognised to be as important as functionality to the success of interactive computer systems. However, even where usability is considered seriously, the scope of thinking tends to be restricted to the so called 'average' users in...

Rapid typing of bacteria using matrix-assisted laser desorption ionisation time-of-flight mass spectrometry and pattern recognition software (2001)
Journal Article
Bright, J. J., Claydon, M. A., Soufian, M., & Gordon, D. B. (2002). Rapid typing of bacteria using matrix-assisted laser desorption ionisation time-of-flight mass spectrometry and pattern recognition software. Journal of Microbiological Methods, 48(2-3), 127-138. https://doi.org/10.1016/s0167-7012%2801%2900317-7

Matrix-assisted laser desorption ionisation time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) of intact microorganisms, also known as intact cell MALDI-TOF-MS (ICM-MS), has been shown to produce characteristic mass spectral fingerprints of moieties des...

Menu sonification in a mobile phone – A prototype study. (2001)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Helle, S., LePlâtre, G., Marila, J., & Laine, P. (2001, July). Menu sonification in a mobile phone – A prototype study. Presented at The Seventh International Conference on Auditory Display, ICAD2001

We have studied the effect and acceptance of a sonified menu structure in a mobile phone. In this experiment, mobile phones with a special software were given to test users for a period of three weeks. Sonification design was done using earcons, and...

Agent-based modelling of pedestrian movements: the questions that need to be asked and answered. (2001)
Journal Article
Kerridge, J., Hine, J., & Wigan, M. (2001). Agent-based modelling of pedestrian movements: the questions that need to be asked and answered. Environment and Planning B: Planning and Design, 28(3), 327-341. https://doi.org/10.1068/b2696

Vulnerable road users have steadily attracted increased importance in transport and planning. The behaviour of pedestrian movements (especially in the areas off but adjacent to roads) requires improved tools to address the issues now being raised. Su...

Sagittal joint kinematics, moments, and powers are predominantly characterized by speed of progression, not age, in normal children. (2001)
Journal Article
Stansfield, B., Hillman, S., Hazlewood, M., Lawson, A., Mann, A. M., Loudon, I. R., & Robb, J. E. (2001). Sagittal joint kinematics, moments, and powers are predominantly characterized by speed of progression, not age, in normal children. Journal of Pediatric Orthopaedics, 21, 403-411

Twenty-six healthy 7-year-old children were enrolled in a 5-year longitudinal study to examine the importance of age and speed in the characterization of sagittal joint angles, moments, and powers. In 740 gait trials, children walking at self-selecte...

Street-based routing using an evolutionary algorithm (2001)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Urquhart, N. B., Paechter, B., & Chisholm, K. (2001, April). Street-based routing using an evolutionary algorithm. Presented at Workshops on Applications of Evolutionary Computation EvoWorkshops 2001, Como, Italy

Much research has been carried out into solving routing problems using both Evolutionary Techniques and other methods. In this paper the authors investigate the usage of an Evolutionary Algorithms to solve the Street-Based Routing Problem (SBRP). The...
