Re: scientific publishing task force update

This was a new one on me too, Mark.  It was posted to Slashdot the  
other day, and the Sorceforge site the article points to is  
essentially empty.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/expo/

As you might gather, EXPO is not a very good term to search in all  
the usual suspect search engines - INSPEC, PubMed, IEEE XPlore,  
CiteSeer.IST, and Google/Google Scholar.  Only a very few specific  
studies using EXPO in the title came up in:

PubMed:

CT-expo--a novel program for dose evaluation in CT
Rofo. 2002 Dec;174(12):1570-6.



  INSPEC:

The extended Poincare generating function type (EXPO)

Extrasolar Planet Observatory (ExPO)

EXPO is the integration of two programs, EXTRA and SIRPOW.92 and is a  
program for full powder decomposition and crystal structure solution.



ACL Anthology of research papers in Comp. Linguistics

A FORMAL GRAMMAR OF EXPRESSIVENESS FOR SACRED LEGENDS
acl.ldc.upenn.edu/C/C80/C80-1023.pdf

(an absolutely fascinating manuscript in no way related to this  
research project)


There is certainly much interesting and relevant research going on in  
this center at the University of Aberystwyth (http://www.aber.ac.uk/ 
compsci/Research/bio/grants.shtml), but I wasn't able to find an  
specific reference to EXPO anywhere, though clearly it could be the  
result of research in any one of several of the projects listed.

In the end, I just gave up.

Cheers,
Bill
