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.

A dual-level presentation model for developing user-interfaces. (2000)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Barclay, P. J., & Kennedy, J. (2000, May). A dual-level presentation model for developing user-interfaces. Presented at ADVANCED VISUAL INTERFACES International Working Conference - AVI 2000

The visualisation of hierarchical information sets has been a staple of Information Visualisation since the field came into being in the early 1990’s. However, at present, support for visualising the correlations between multiple, overlapping sets of... Read More about A dual-level presentation model for developing user-interfaces..

Using a persistent system to construct a customised interface to an ecological db. (1993)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Barclay, P. J., Fraser, C., & Kennedy, J. (1992, July). Using a persistent system to construct a customised interface to an ecological db. Presented at 1st International workshop on Interfaces to Database

New applications of information technology have increasingly sophisticated user interface requirements. Such interfaces are sometimes highly application specific and therefore require to be customised to the given application area. Technology is requ...

Modelling ecological data. (1992)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Barclay, P. J., & Kennedy, J. (1992, June). Modelling ecological data. Presented at 6th International Workshop on Scientific and Statistical Database Management, 1992

Ecological surveys generate large quantities of data; database technology has not yet reached its full
potential in this area. Here we investigate approaches to modelling ecological data, considering the require-
ments for a successful model. An ob... Read More about Modelling ecological data..
