Dye, R., Arnott, J. L. and Newell, Allen (1991): The Design of a Memory Efficient Palantype Transcription System. In International Journal of Man-Machine Studies, 34 (5) pp. 615-630
Machine shorthand transcription systems have been used to provide verbatim transcripts of speech in Law Courts and as transcription aids for hearing impaired people for a number of years. All current transcription systems, however, rely heavily on dictionary look-up procedures in order to give a high quality transcription of the shorthand code. These systems require large memories and are usually expensive and non-portable. This paper describes a new transcription technique which results in a very compact and portable transcription system and which is therefore particularly suitable as an aid for the hearing impaired.

Newell, Allen, Arnott, J. L., Dye, R. and Cairns, A. Y. (1991): A Full-Speed Listening Typewriter Simulation. In International Journal of Man-Machine Studies, 35 (2) pp. 119-131
For automatic speech recognition applications such as a listening typewriter, there is a pressing need for the evaluation of speech input to machine. Unfortunately current recognition technology is not adequate for such evaluation, and thus simulation must be used. Some simulations have been performed where the conversion from speech to orthography was performed by a typist, but these simulations were restricted by the speed at which the typist could input data. This paper describes a simulation based on a palantype shorthand machine and a commercially available transcription system. The use of a shorthand machine rather than a QWERTY keyboard means that the speech rates can be much greater and thus the simulation need not impose unrealistic speed limitations on the speaker.

Dye, R., Newell, Allen and Arnott, John (1984): An Adaptive Editor for Shorthand Transcription Systems. In: Shackel, Brian (ed.) INTERACT 84 - 1st IFIP International Conference on Human-Computer Interaction September 4-7, 1984, London, UK. pp. 157-161.
An automatic transcription system for machine shorthand takes the output from a shorthand machine, and converts it into a Draft Transcript. This draft transcript needs to be edited to perfection using word processing techniques. A suite of programmes has been written which takes advantage of the particular characteristics of Palantype transcripts to provide a very efficient editing environment. The editor adapts to the user in a way which improves his efficiency without an overhead of the necessity to learn complex control structures. Some of these facilities are also appropriate to a standard word processing environment.

Computer programs emerge as the outcome of complex human processes of cognition, communication and negotiation, which serve to establish the meaningful embedding of the computer system in its intended use context.
