Practical Applications of Quantum Physics and How these Might Transform Society. A lecture on the fundamentals of quantum physics with hands-on demonstrations and a discussion of the potential impact of quantum technology on everyone’s life.
LEAP, the Linux-Equipped Astronauts Project, is a project to port to Linux those applications that the astronauts use on their laptops, so that each astronaut has a choice of operating systems. We know that several of the astronauts already use Linux at home, and would appreciate being able to use […]

Detecting Approximate Symmetries of Discrete Point Subsets
Low-Discrepancy Sampling This is the PhD work of Jonathan Quinn about creating low-discrepancy sampling sequwnces of surfaces utilising space-filling curves. This has been applied to point-based rendering, remeshing and robotic painting (in collaboration with Jonathan Corney and Finlay McPherson). Jonathan’s supervisors are Frank Langbein and Ralph Martin.
Point Sampling
The following software detect approximate regularities for design intent detection. It has been implemented on Linux in C++ (gcc 3.3) and Matlab using OpenCascade 5.2. Software for Approximate Regularity Detection If you use this code please cite one of these publications:
