List of Systems for Brad Myers and Students

The names of most of my projects, and those of my students, are acronyms, generally based on gemstones or rocks. Below is a summary of all the systems and what they stand for, and usually a reference to find out more about the system.

I am happy to say that one of my graduated students went on to have his own series of systems with acronyms based on a theme: Cloth. See James Landay's systems: Silk, Satin, Suede, Denim, Damask, WebQuilt, etc.
