Research :

  Multi-access Operating Systems design and implementation.  Research
  is concerned with the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of operating
  systems from both user and owner/manager points of view.  This has
  been conducted hitherto on ERCC computers, ICL 4-75s and ICL 2900s,
  and has resulted in the EMAS operating systems widely used within
  the University.  Similar work is now continuing on the departmental
  VAX-11/780 with the main aim being to produce a better and more
  ergonomic user interface to the system. In addition, investigation is
  proceeding towards a computer design which would provide a better
  hardware basis for software research.  The ultimate direction of this
  work is a powerful but cheap personal computer.  Cooperation takes
  place with Prof. H. Whitfield of the University of Groningen, Holland,
  in this area.

  Programming Language and Compiler design and implementation.  A
  continuing research interest in this field.

  Colour raster-scan graphics as applied to the Computer Aided Design
  of Integrated Circuits.
