Linking Business Processes and Information Systems Provision in a Dynamic Environment (2002)
Journal Article
Beeson, I., Green, S., Sa, J., & Sully, A. (2002). Linking Business Processes and Information Systems Provision in a Dynamic Environment. Information Systems Frontiers, 4(3), 317-329. https://doi.org/10.1023/A%3A1019910722321

This paper discusses decision and communication processes which link strategic activity in a business with information systems development activity. We develop a model which illustrates these processes as abserved in one company (AXA Sun Life, Bristo...

A conditional autoregressive Gaussian process for irregularly spaced multivariate data with application to modelling large sets of binary data (2002)
Journal Article
Pettitt, A. N., Weir, I., & Hart, A. G. (2002). A conditional autoregressive Gaussian process for irregularly spaced multivariate data with application to modelling large sets of binary data. Statistics and Computing, 12(4), 353-367. https://doi.org/10.1023/A%3A1020792130229

A Gaussian conditional autoregressive (CAR) formulation is presented that permits the modelling of the spatial dependence and the dependence between multivariate random variables at irregularly spaced sites so capturing some of the modelling advantag...

Proof of a conjecture on irredundance perfect graphs (2002)
Journal Article
Volkmann, L., & Zverovich, V. (2002). Proof of a conjecture on irredundance perfect graphs. Journal of Graph Theory, 41(4), 292-306. https://doi.org/10.1002/jgt.10068

Let ir(G) and γ(G) be the irredundance number and the domination number of a graph G, respectively. A graph G is called irredundance perfect if ir(H) = γ(H), for every induced subgraph H of G. In this article we present a result which immediately imp... Read More about Proof of a conjecture on irredundance perfect graphs.

Evaluating a new course in postnatal care (2002)
Journal Article
Mitchell, M., & Doyle, M. (2002). Evaluating a new course in postnatal care. British Journal of Midwifery, 10(12), 746-750. https://doi.org/10.12968/bjom.2002.10.12.746

An innovative course has been developed and implemented to enable midwives to extend their role in the postnatal period. This is in response to the challenge for midwives to enhance their public health role. On completion of the course participants f... Read More about Evaluating a new course in postnatal care.

Lara Croft: feminist icon or cyberbimbo? On the limits of textual analysis (2002)
Journal Article
Kennedy, H. W. (2002). Lara Croft: feminist icon or cyberbimbo? On the limits of textual analysis

As the title suggests, the feminist reception of Lara Croft as a game character has been ambivalent to say the least. The question itself presupposes an either/or answer, thereby neatly expressing the polarities around which most popular media and ac... Read More about Lara Croft: feminist icon or cyberbimbo? On the limits of textual analysis.

No seasonality in month of birth of inflammatory bowel disease cases: A prospective population based study of British under 20 year olds (2002)
Journal Article
Card, T. R., Sawczenko, A., Sandhu, B., & Logan, R. F. A. (2002). No seasonality in month of birth of inflammatory bowel disease cases: A prospective population based study of British under 20 year olds. Gut, 51(6), 814-815. https://doi.org/10.1136/gut.51.6.814

Prenatal or perinatal environmental exposures have been postulated to change the risk of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) later in life.1 One manifestation of this, perhaps because of early and seasonal infectious exposure, might be an association be...

Application of Markov chain Monte Carlo methods to projecting cancer incidence and mortality (2002)
Journal Article
Bray, I. (2002). Application of Markov chain Monte Carlo methods to projecting cancer incidence and mortality. Journal of the Royal Statistical Society: Series C, 51(2), 151-164. https://doi.org/10.1111/1467-9876.00260

Projections based on incidence and mortality data collected by cancer registries are important for estimating current rates in the short term, and public health planning in the longer term. Classical approaches are dependent on questionable parametri... Read More about Application of Markov chain Monte Carlo methods to projecting cancer incidence and mortality.
