Data base methods are provided for class and room scheduling and recording. M.Sc. in progress. In particular the project involves research into methods of applying the multi-media facilities available through this new technology to education and training. Ph.D. in progress. The traditional methods of statistical process control are applicable in situations where production items are discrete in nature and where there are high volumes of throughput.
Modern demands require more frequent production changes and shorter production runs.
This project is working to further develop practical statistical techniques that will aid those working in the short-run production environment. Ph.D. in progress. As indicated by the title, this project is a study of fire and smoke spread with specific concern to stochastic modelling. Such models, if realistic, will help with the safety aspects of building design. Ph.D. in progress.
