A Visual aide for designing regular expression parsers
This paper describes a thesis project in which a visually-oriented design utility is constructed in Interlisp-D for the Xerox 1108 Artificial Intelligence Workstation. This utility aids in the design of Regular Expression Parsers by visually simulating the operation of a parser. A textual program, suitable for utilization in the construction of a compiler scanner or other similar processor may be produced by the utility

African Water: Supporting African involvement in the EU Framework Programme.
Water researchers in developing countries have yet to take full advantage of the funding and collaborative research opportunities presented by the EU Framework Programme. There are a variety of reasons for this, such as insufficient information and a lack of previous experience. The African Water initiative aims to increase the involvement of African water researchers through a range of activities including communication and dissemination, capacity building and development, and complementary initiatives. The project has demonstrated that there is a demand for such sector-specific support activities. However, African Water is a small component of a much larger process of partnership between the developed and the less-developed countries of the world, involving many different European and African organisations working across political, institutional and technical domains, and complementing the wide range of actions already being undertaken
Using the plan–do–study–act (PDSA) cycle to make change in general practice
As new members of the team, GP trainees can provide a fresh perspective on practice systems. They are, therefore, ideally placed to enact change within practices. However, GP trainees may feel ill-equipped to suggest and deliver change to their practices. This article will explore the concept of change management using the plan–do–study–act cycle and consider how to initiate change by providing a structure to guide the process
Institutional Changes to Support School Desegregation: Alternative Models Underlying Research and Implementation
Recent research studies and reports of current desegregation plans are examined against the background of two models of social systems: consensus and conflict. The article\u27s focus moves from the community to the school to the classroom to the individual
Facing both ways : Yan Fu, Hu Shi, and Chen Duxiu : Chinese intellectuals and the meaning of modern science, 1895-1923

The value and meaning that accrued to science as method -- as a thinking technique -- and to the evolutionary ideas of Charles Darwin and Herbert Spencer as the science of choice among Chinese intellectuals of this period, was due to belief or disbelief in the power of these ideas to describe, explain, or solve the problematic of modernity in a Chinese context
