Go to your public library and request the articles via interlibrary
loan. I recently got Oliver Collins paper on Low Jitter Hard Limiters
that way. Depending on your library's policies it might be free or cost
a few dollars. It cost me $2.50 for photocopying. I'm not sure if you
can get the actual journal.

There are additional papers (perhaps Bruce can locate them).
In particular, there is one paper that corrects some mistakes of Rubiola,
Australian if I remember correctly.
Yes, the paper by Dawkins, McFerran and Luiten:

Yes, many thanks.
This article by J.J. Snyder, "An Ultra-High Resolution Frequency Meter",
FCS #35, is very useful:
http://www.ieee-uffc.org/main/publications/fcs/proceed/1981/s8110464.pdf
It describes an hardware implementation of a zero dead-time counter
(crude!) implementing the algorithm. It performs the averaging in the way I
described earlier. The above paper by Snyder is the inspiration to the
original MDEV paper published in for the same conference and directly
following:
David W. Allan and James A. Barnes, "A modified Allan Variance with
increased oscillator characterization ability", FCS #35.
http://www.ieee-uffc.org/main/publications/fcs/proceed/1981/s8110470.pdf
From the same conference exists a summary paper of Howe, Allan and Barnes
on measurements, spending time on comparing over-lapping and non-overlapping
estimators, effective use of data, DF/EDF, chi-square etc. etc.
Cheers,
Magnus
