Publications and presentations in the 1990s

2000 >

This page provides links to (eventually) all (public domain) publications and presentations before 2000 by Paul Bacsich and his colleagues/associates in Matic Media Ltd. (However, due to entropy and increasing irrelevance, it is not planned to put up material before 1990.) Where possible, links will be given to where the publications are currently stored; in most other cases (confidentiality and IPR permitting), the links will point to a local version.

There is little easily findable on the public web from this era. Thus the page will gradually be further populated by Paul raiding his own files.
