Formal semantics of control in a completely visual programming language
Wayne Citrin,Michael Doherty,Benjamin G. Zorn +2 more
- 04 Oct 1994
TL;DR: The semantics of this language is described, both informally and formally, focusing on support for control constructs, and it is proved that using this language to model common high-level constructs is semantically sound.

Structures for manipulating proposed updates in object-oriented databases
Michael Doherty,Richard Hull,Mohammed Rupawalla +2 more
- 01 Jun 1996
TL;DR: A comprehensive framework for specifying a broad array of forms for representing deltas for complex value types (tuple, set, bag, list, o-set and dictionary) is introduced and applications of this framework in connection with hypothetical access to, and "merging" of, proposed updates are discussed.

Implementing Relationships and Constraints in an Object-Oriented Database Using a Monitor Construct
Michael Doherty,Joan Peckham,Victor Fay Wolfe +2 more
- 01 Jan 1994
TL;DR: The SORAC project merges the strengths of these two models by extending the object-oriented model through the addition of active semantic relationships, which express and enforce the constraints imposed on an object by the participation of the object in some group of related objects.

On Detecting Conflict Between Proposed Updates
Michael Doherty,Richard Hull,Marcia A. Derr,Jacques Durand +3 more
- 06 Sep 1995
TL;DR: The Heraclitus[OO] (abbreviated H2O) DBPL is presented, which provides a syntax and semantics for working with deltas in the context of object-oriented databases, and a semantically based notion of potential conflict between proposed updates is developed.
The design and evaluation of online lesson units for teaching virtual reality to undergraduates
Daniel C. Cliburn,James R. Miller,Michael Doherty +2 more
- 23 Dec 2010
TL;DR: The implementation and evaluation of a series of flexible online lesson units for teaching virtual reality concepts to undergraduate students indicate that this approach does have the potential to achieve the goal of making VR accessible to undergraduateStudents without disrupting curricular structures.
