Editorial¶

by David Eastwood

In this issue of The Random Vector, we have a mixture of articles, reviewing the current state of the ASL and introducing some ideas for future developments. Jake Ansell, the ASL Chairman, gives a brief review of the current status of the project and also introduces a proposal for another volume for the ASL based on some work he and a colleague are carrying out at the moment.

Now that two volumes of the ASL are on general release, we are beginning to get some useful feedback on the software. I am pleased to include a review of ASLGREG, the Linear Regression volume, which has been submitted by Jon Sandles of Nestlé-Rowntree. Alan Sykes has submitted a number of minor corrections to the ASLGREG software and has also responded to some comments made in the review of ASLGREG.

If you would like to order copies of the ASL software, order forms are available from both the ASL Management Committee and from the BAA Administration (Rowena Small).

As usual, I give contact addresses for the ASL Management Committee:
