Technical reports

Computer Laboratory technical reports

The Computer Laboratory has published a Technical Report series (ISSN 1476-2986) since 1974. Technical reports are intended primarily for the long-term archival of results and descriptions that are not suitable for publication elsewhere, due to their length or nature. Technical reports are also the most common way to make a Computer Laboratory PhD thesis widely available. Most newer technical reports, in particular all published since 2002, are available online in PDF.
