Kralingen, Robert W. Van, Visser, Pepijn R. S., Bench-Capon, Trevor J. M. and Herik, H. Jaap Van Den (1999): A Principled Approach to Developing Legal Knowledge Systems. In International Journal of Human-Computer Studies, 51 (6) pp. 1127-1154.

In this article we present a principled, four-phased approach to the development of legal knowledge systems. We set out from the well-studied CommonKADS method for the development of knowledge systems and tailor this method to the legal domain. In particular, we propose a generic legal ontology, and describe the creation of statute-specific ontologies to adopt the method for building legal systems. In the construction of these ontologies, we start from a theoretical analysis of the legal domain. The well-known example of the Imperial College Library Regulations (ICLR) is used to illustrate the method.

Coenen, F. P., Finch, I., Bench-Capon, Trevor J. M. and Shave, M. J. R. (1993): Autonomous Support for Group Working: The Aide de Camp Project. In: Alty, James L., Diaper, Dan and Guest, D. (eds.) Proceedings of the Eighth Conference of the British Computer Society Human Computer Interaction Specialist Group - People and Computers VIII August 7-10, 1993, Loughborough University, UK. pp. 367-382.

Computer networking and the genre of software, collectively referred to as groupware, enabled by such networks have been with us for some time. The potential advantages to be gained cannot be overstated. There are also disadvantages associated with the technology. In particular the introduction of computer networking and groupware has significantly increased the work load of individual network users, especially those charged with the administration of the cooperative tasks that the software supports. In this paper we describe the Aide de Camp system. This is a decentralised communications management system that actively addresses the administration of cooperative tasks. This is achieved through the development of two key concepts, collaborative mail filtering and the use of autonomous agents to administer cooperative tasks. Both are described and the advantages gained illustrated through the use of a number of examples taken from applications currently under investigation.

Bench-Capon, Trevor J. M. and McEnery, A. M. (1989): People Interact Through Computers Not With Them. In Interacting with Computers, 1 (1) pp. 31-38.

A view of human-human interaction is presented and its implications for human-computer interaction discussed. Two propositions are advanced. The first is that interaction with computer systems is properly seen as mediated discourse, more akin to reading books and notices than interpersonal dialogues. The second proposition is a consequence of this, namely that unconstrained natural language is unlikely to provide an ideal form of interface.

The roles played in an illocutionary act by models of the means of communication and the communicator are distinguished, and qualitative differences between the models appropriate in the two cases identified. Applied to human-computer interaction, that means that a user must have models of the computer both as a communications device and a communications medium, and of the system author as interlocutor.
