Over the past few months I've been working on design tips.
These pages have also been redrafted and have a simpler
feel to the previous design. I started putting design tips
on my WWW pages of the Past page, and I've been told that
some of them were very helpful in other people's design, so
I've created more of them. Unfortunately they're a bit rough-and-ready,
but they may give you a few ideas. You won't find any tips
on how to use Flash or Dreamweaver, or Director, as they are
intended to be generic tips which can be incorporated into
any WWW-based design. A few quick links are:

There are several modules contained within this site, that
support programmes running in the UK and Malaysia. The main aim
of WWW pages for modules is to provide a central source so that
every student who studies them receive the same experience. CNDS
(Computer Networks and Distributed Systems) has the most developed
page, and will be further enhanced over the next few months. The
NOS (Network Operating Systems module) covers networking infrastructure
(routers, operating systems and network operating systems). Both
modules will run again in September 2004.
Well, why is research so important? Well it's important as
its main objectives is to look to the future. This isn't quite
one year or two, but it should look to five or ten years.
Thus it is key to investigate new techniques which might not
seem relevant at the present, but might have some potential
for the development of new systems. The key to research is
to improve a key element of a current system, using a novel
technique.
