Applications of Bayesian Skyline Plots and Approximate Bayesian Computation for Human Demography
Bayesian methods have been adopted by anthropologists for their utility in resolving complex questions about human history based on genetic data. The main advantages of Bayesian methods include simple model comparison, presenting results as a summary of probability distributions, and the explicit inclusion of prior information into analyses. In the fijield of anthropological genetics, for example, implementing Bayesian skyline plots and approxima…
The Date of the Cloister of Salisbury Cathedral
Salisbury Cathedral's cloister has received less scholarly attention than it merits. An important and outstanding issue is that of the structure's date. This has never been securely established, and there is no scholarly consensus on the matter. With reference to documentary and archaeological evidence, this article establishes unequivocally a documented start-date of after 15 June 1263 for the second stage of the project. In so doing it confirms…
Office automation in local government in the UK
This article summarises the findings from a survey of local authorities. The survey represents the first attempt to obtain detailed information at the departmental level within an authority. The results show current and planned office automation applications and trends in its use. User's perceptions of the value of the applications and the factors leading to successful implementation are discussed. The general trend is away from individual applic…

It was an expression of the laity's continuing devotion to the monastic ideal, now reinforced by the foundation and spread of new religious orders, and it was in part a consequence of the redefinition of relations between the laity and the clergy following in th…
