College Work

I worked on a number of projects during my Information Systems Engineering degree. Many produced reports or code as their delivereables. Here are the links to those reports for anyone interested in what I did for 4 years in London.

2000 - SoftVCR for Windows

This is my final year individual project. It presents an implementation of a video recording application that is capable of replacing a home VCR. Although many commercial applications are appearing with similar functionality, this program is unique in the way it gathers television listings directly by parsing websites.
The source code is provided for informational purposes only and you are requested to drop me a line if you wish to use any part of it. It requires the presence of RealProducer and Indeo 5.1 drivers on your computer. It also only supports the Hauppauge WinTV card. It was designed on NT4 and has not been tested on all platforms It has no warranty attached (I may get around to putting a GPL on it one day). Read the Final Report for the details and some documentation.

1999 - Java FishMarket

This 3rd Year Group Project describes an implementation of a Spanish Fishmarket style auction system comprising of a Java Client/Server. I was involved with the creation of the Server, which mimics the functionality of the auction house. Other members of the groups then created Agent based clients that competed for e-fish.

1998 - Soft Negotiation

This is a literature review project done at the end of my 2nd year with Marcus Pickering. It examines the notion of Soft Programming combined with Negotiation for possible market based applications. This was supervised by Phillipe De Wilde.
