World of Seven - Viz: SLS Engineering Suite

All documents that are uploaded in this webpage are part of the main author's (Steven) future PhD thesis. However, major parts of what we have for Viz to date (Mid-June 2008) have been/will be published/presented as demo in several conferences, workshops, and talks: MIC 2005, SweConsNet 2006, ECAI 2006, CP 2006, UIST 2006, talk at CUHK, SLS 2007, CP 2007, CP 2008, and in a book chapter: MIC 2005 post-conference volume. Since Steven's PhD thesis is not yet complete and still unpublished, please cite the appropriate paper(s) in the publication page if you want to cite/use parts of our work:

Please note that these documents are going to evolve throughout Steven's PhD candidature. However, we write the 'last update' date for each document so that you can differentiate which documents are recently updated. These documents have not been proof-read for grammar/spelling/organizational/logical errors, so, read with caution...
