So, this is "news" that mostly isn't new anymore ... one of these days (years?) I'll get around to starting a proper blog... (wink!)

30-July-2004: Now available (courtesy of Complexity Digest): the audio of my talk, "30 Years of Computational Autopoiesis: A Review", at the colloquium From Autopoiesis to Neurophenomenology: A Tribute to Francisco Varela. The audio makes a little more sense in conjunction with the presentation slides. A preprint version of the full paper is also available (the final version appears in Artificial Life, Vol. 10, Issue 3, Summer 2004).
20 Jul 2004: "A Comparative Assessment of Web Accessibility and Technical Standards Conformance in Four EU States" (co-authored with Carmen Marincu) has been published in First Monday. Due to some limitations of the journal style, that version does not itself conform to certain accessibility guidelines (!). An essentially equivalent, but more accessible, version of the paper is also available in "preprint" form.
6 Jul 2004: Accessing Web Based Documents Through a Tree Structural Interface (co-authored with Esmond Walshe) was presented at ICCHP 2004.
22 April 2004: The rationale for the DCU deployment of the Moodle Virtual Learning Environment is explained in Moodle at DCU (co-authored with Morag Munro), a paper presented at EdTech 2004.
