  4. During the months May-August of 1997 I developed a small scale software, SEGCALC, for Dr. Ivan Townshend, Department of Geography, UoL . SEGCALC (SEGregation index CALCulator) processes geographical data and calculates 19 segregation indices which are of interest to those working on quantitative methods of geography. We used SEGCALC on the 1991 census age data and GIS derived spatial data to measure age segregation in 25 Canadian metropolitan areas. The interpretation of these measurements was presented by Dr. Townshend in two conferences:

1. Townshend, I; Konstantinidis, S.; and Walker, R. ``What Dimensions of Residential Segregation? Metropolitan Age Segregation in Canada.'' Presented at the annual meeting of the Canadian Regional Science Association, Memorial University Newfoundland, Aug. 97.

2. Townshend, I; Konstantinidis, S.; and Walker, R. ``The Dimensionality of Age Segregation in Canadian Metropolitan Areas.'' Presented at the 1997 annual meeting of the Great Plains/Rocky Mountain Division of the Association of American Geographers, Sep. 97.
