    Maremi, Keneilwe (2022-02)
    This qualitative study applied the exploratory Delphi expert reviews as a strategy through the research onion of Saunders, Lewis and Thornhill (2016) to explore School Management Systems (SMS) and how they can be ...
  • A script-based prototype for dynamic deadlock avoidance 
    Blewett, CN; Erwin, GJ (1996)
    Expert systems apply Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques to an application area, aiming (usually) to mimic the behaviour of a human expert. However, there are some AI techniques which can be used to improve the internal ...
  • The search for a dark vector boson and a new scalar with the ATLAS detector 
    Boye, Diallo (2020-06)
    Hidden sector or dark sector states appear in many extensions to the Standard Model (SM), to provide particle mediators for dark matter in the universe or to explain astrophysical observations such as the positron excess ...
  • The SECD Machine : An Introduction 
    Dempster, Robert (Computer Society of South Africa (on behalf of SAICSIT), 1986)
    The S(tack), E(nvironment), C(ontrol) and D(ump) machine was invented by Landin (1964) to perform the mechanical evaluation of symbolic expressions. The evaluation of an expression invariably involves the application of ...

    Hattas, Mahier; Eloff, M.M. (2011-09-13)
    Digital Data Collection in South Africa is continuously evolving as technology and infrastructural networks gain momentum with respect to its development. In-field data collection is critical for any national government ...
  • Secure mobile nodes in federated databases 
    Olivier, MS (South African Computer Society (SAICSIT), 1997)
    Mobile computers pose special security risks since information contained on them can more easily be compromised. However, availability of information at the location where the mobile computer is to be used often outweighs ...
  • Selecting LCMS in higher education: Lessons from the South African mining industry 
    Dagada, Rabelani; Jakovljevic, Maria (University of Johannesburg, 2004)

  • Semantic belief change 
    Meyer, Thomas Andreas (1999-03)
    The ability to change one's beliefs in a rational manner is one of many facets of the abilities of an intelligent agent. Central to any investigation of belief change is the notion of an epistemic state. This dissertation ...
  • Semantic constructs for a persistent programming language 
    Sparg, S.B.; Berman, Sonia (South African Computer Society (SAICSIT), 1992)
    Existing persistent languages cannot express the structure and semantics of the data they work on precisely and simply. As a result programs are more difficult to write and the integrity of the data is compromised. This ...
  • A semantic data model approach to logical data independence 
    Berman, S (1987)
    Semantic data models were originally introduced as a tool for data description and design. SDMI (Semantic Data Model Interface) investigates their use in another role - as the basis for a data manipulation language - and ...
