Conference Proceeding
Benford, S., Greenhalgh, C., Craven, M., Walker, G., Regan, T., Morphett, J., …Bowers, J. (1999). Broadcasting On-Line Social Interaction as Inhabited Television. In S. Bødker, M. Kyng, & K. Schmidt (Eds.), ECSCW ’99: Proceedings of the Sixth European Conference on Computer Supported Cooperative Work 12–16 September 1999, Copenhagen, Denmark (179-198). https://doi.org/10.1007/978-94-011-4441-4_10

Inhabited TV combines collaborative virtual environments (CVEs) with broadcast TV so that on-line audiences can participate in TV shows within shared virtual worlds. Three early experiments with inhabited TV raised fundamental questions concerning th... Read More about Broadcasting On-Line Social Interaction as Inhabited Television.

Inhabited Television takes traditional broadcast television and combines it with multiuser virtual reality, to give new possibilities for interaction and participation in and around shows or channels. 'Out Of This World' was an experimental inhabited... Read More about Patterns of network and user activity in an inhabited television event.

Three dimensional visualization of the World Wide Web (1999)
Journal Article
Benford, S., Taylor, I., Brailsford, D. F., Koleva, B., Craven, M. P., Fraser, M., …Greenhalgh, C. (1999). Three dimensional visualization of the World Wide Web. ACM Computing Surveys, 31(4es),

Although large-scale public hypermedia structures such as the World Wide Web are popularly referred to as "cyberspace", the extent to which they constitute a space in the everyday sense of the word is questionable. This paper reviews recent work in t... Read More about Three dimensional visualization of the World Wide Web.

Separable Hyperstructure and Delayed Link Binding (1999)
Journal Article
Brailsford, D. F. (1999). Separable Hyperstructure and Delayed Link Binding. ACM Computing Surveys, 31(4es),

As the amount of material on the World Wide Web continues to grow, users are discovering that the Web's embedded, hard-coded, links are difficult to maintain and update. Hyperlinks need a degree of abstraction in the way they are specified together w... Read More about Separable Hyperstructure and Delayed Link Binding.

Genetic algorithms for multiple-choice problems (1999)
Thesis
Aickelin, U. Genetic algorithms for multiple-choice problems. (Thesis). University of Wales Swansea. Retrieved from https://nottingham-repository.worktribe.com/output/1163583

This thesis investigates the use of problem-specific knowledge to enhance a genetic algorithm approach to multiple-choice optimisation problems. It shows that such information can significantly enhance performance, but that the choice of information... Read More about Genetic algorithms for multiple-choice problems.

A Tutorial on the Universality and Expressiveness of Fold (1999)
Journal Article
Hutton, G. (1999). A Tutorial on the Universality and Expressiveness of Fold. Journal of Functional Programming, 9(4),

In functional programming, fold is a standard operator that encapsulates a simple pattern of recursion for processing lists. This article is a tutorial on two key aspects of the fold operator for lists. First of all, we emphasize the use of the uni...

Using a Generalisation Critic to find Bisimulations for Coinductive Proofs (1999)
Conference Proceeding
Dennis, L. A., Bundy, A., & Green, I. (1999). Using a Generalisation Critic to find Bisimulations for Coinductive Proofs. In W. McCune (Ed.),

Coinduction is a method of growing importance in reasoning about functional languages, due to the increasing prominence of lazy data structures. Through the use of bisimulations and proofs that bisimilarity is a congruence in various domains it can... Read More about Using a Generalisation Critic to find Bisimulations for Coinductive Proofs.

Linking electronic journals - Lessons from the Open Journal project (1998)
Journal Article
Hitchcock, S., Carr, L., Hall, W., Harris, S., Probets, S., Evans, D., & Brailsford, D. F. (1998). Linking electronic journals - Lessons from the Open Journal project

The Open Journal project has completed its three year period of funding by the UK Electronic Libraries (eLib) programme (Rusbridge 1998). During that time, the number of journals that are available electronically leapt from a few tens to a few thousa...

Monadic parsing in Haskell (1998)
Journal Article
Hutton, G., & Meijer, E. (1998). Monadic parsing in Haskell. Journal of Functional Programming, 8(4),

This paper is a tutorial on defining recursive descent parsers in Haskell. In the spirit of one-stop shopping, the paper combines material from three areas into a single source. The three areas are functional parsers, the use of monads to structure... Read More about Monadic parsing in Haskell.

Dynamic Link Inclusion in Online PDF Journals (1998)
Conference Proceeding
Probets, S., Brailsford, D. F., Carr, L., & Hall, W. (1998). Dynamic Link Inclusion in Online PDF Journals. In J. Andre, H. Brown, & R. Hersch (Eds.),

Two complementary de facto standards for the publication of electronic documents are HTML on theWorldWideWeb and Adobe s PDF (Portable Document Format) language for use with Acrobat viewers. Both these formats provide support for hypertext features t... Read More about Dynamic Link Inclusion in Online PDF Journals.

Electronic Publishing : the evolution and economics of a hybrid journal. (1997)
Conference Proceeding
Brailsford, D. F. (1997). Electronic Publishing : the evolution and economics of a hybrid journal.

The technical, social and economic issues of electronic publishing are examined by using as a case study the evolution of the journal Electronic Publishing Origination, Dissemination and Design (EP-odd) which is published by John Wiley Ltd. The journ... Read More about Electronic Publishing : the evolution and economics of a hybrid journal..

Back to Basics: Deriving Representation Changers Functionally (1996)
Journal Article
Hutton, G., & Meijer, E. (1996). Back to Basics: Deriving Representation Changers Functionally. Journal of Functional Programming, 6(1),

Many functional programs can be viewed as representation changers, that is, as functions that convert abstract values from one concrete representation to another. Examples of such programs include base-converters, binary adders and multipliers, and... Read More about Back to Basics: Deriving Representation Changers Functionally.

Monadic parser combinators (1996)
Book
Hutton, G., & Meijer, E. (1996). Monadic parser combinators. School of Computer Science and IT

In functional programming, a popular approach to building recursive descent parsers is to model parsers as functions, and to define higher-order functions (or combinators) that implement grammar constructions such as sequencing, choice, and repetitio... Read More about Monadic parser combinators.

Bananas in space: extending fold and unfold to exponential types (1995)
Conference Proceeding
Meijer, E., & Hutton, G. (1995). Bananas in space: extending fold and unfold to exponential types.

Fold and unfold are general purpose functionals for process-ing and constructing lists. By using the categorical approach of modelling recursive datatypes as fixed points of functors, these functionals and their algebraic properties were generalised...
