Representations in Human-Computer Systems development. (2002)
Journal Article
Benyon, D. (2002). Representations in Human-Computer Systems development. Cognition, Technology and Work, 4, 180-196. https://doi.org/10.1007/s101110200017

When system developers design a computer system (or other information artefact), they must inevitably make judgements as to how to abstract the domain and how to represent this abstraction in their designs. Over the years human–computer interaction,... Read More about Representations in Human-Computer Systems development..

Coded path routing: a new approach to broadcasting in 3-D meshes, Technical Report (2002)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Al-Dubai, A., & Ould-Khaoua, M. (2001, April). Coded path routing: a new approach to broadcasting in 3-D meshes, Technical Report. Presented at 20th IEEE International Performance, Computing, and Communications Conference, Phoenix, AZ, USA

Broadcast is an important collective communication operation required by many real-world parallel applications. This paper proposes the Coded Path Routing (or CPR for short) as a new approach for designing efficient broadcast algorithms for wormhole-...

An intelligent agent security intrusion system (2002)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Pikoulas, J., Buchanan, W., Mannion, M., & Triantafyllopoulos, K. (2002, April). An intelligent agent security intrusion system. Presented at Ninth Annual IEEE International Conference and Workshop on the Engineering of Computer-Based Systems, Lund, Sweden

Network security has now become one of the most important aspects in computer systems and the Internet. Apart from strong encryption, there is no definite method of truly securing network, thus they must be protected at different levels of the OSI mo...

Scenarios and the HCI-SE design problem (2002)
Journal Article
Benyon, D., & Macaulay, C. (2002). Scenarios and the HCI-SE design problem. Interacting with Computers, 14(4), 397-405. https://doi.org/10.1016/s0953-5438%2802%2900007-3

Diaper's critical review of Carrol's book ‘Making Use’ raises a number of interesting issues about how to set about the design of interactive systems. In particular Diaper poses an issue that has long dogged the area of Human–Computer Interaction and... Read More about Scenarios and the HCI-SE design problem.

Understanding how to improve the accessibility of computers through cursor control studies (2002)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Keates, S., Clarkson, P. J., & Robinson, P. (2002, April). Understanding how to improve the accessibility of computers through cursor control studies. Presented at CHI '02 Human Factors in Computing Systems, Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA

People with motion-impairments often find it difficult to perform many of the actions required to interact with a computer. This paper presents the results of an on-going series of experiments designed to understand how using force feedback affects i...

Inclusive design: Reflections on design practice (2002)
Preprint / Working Paper
Dong, H., Cardoso, C., Cassim, J., Keates, S., & Clarkson, P. J. Inclusive design: Reflections on design practice

To investigate the practice of inclusive design in an industrial context and to gain an insight into the industrial perspectives, eight UK design consultancies' participation of the DBA design Challenges were reviewed through formal interviews. It is... Read More about Inclusive design: Reflections on design practice.

Managing complex taxonomic data in an object-oriented database. (2002)
Thesis
Raguenaud, C. Managing complex taxonomic data in an object-oriented database. (Thesis). Edinburgh Napier University. http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/id/eprint/6572

This thesis addresses the problem of multiple overlapping classifications in object-oriented databases through the example of plant taxonomy. These multiple overlapping classifications are independent simple classifications that share information (no... Read More about Managing complex taxonomic data in an object-oriented database..

Differential CMOS edge-triggered flip-flop with clock gating. (2002)
Journal Article
Xia, Y., & Almaini, A. E. A. (2002). Differential CMOS edge-triggered flip-flop with clock gating. Electronics Letters, 38, 9-11. https://doi.org/10.1049/el%3A20020038

A non-redundant transition clock chain is proposed and applied to differential edge-triggered flip-flops. PSPICE simulation shows that compared to a recently published design the proposed circuit can save power when switching activity of the input si...
