  • Machine translation from African languages to English 
    Kourie, D.G.; van den Heever, WJ; Oosthuizen, GD (South African Computer Society (SAICSIT), 1992)
    This paper describes how a machine translation system, LEXICA, has been used and adapted to translate from African languages to English. Results with Tswana provide comprehensible translations that, although not necessarily ...
  • Management aspects of client/server computing 
    Langa, S (1998)
    The purpose of the research is to investigate the management aspects of client/server computing. The latter is seen as a prerequisite for better management of all aspects of client/server computing. Noting the fact that ...
  • The Management of Operating System State Data 
    Turton, Trevor (Computer Society of South Africa (on behalf of SAICSIT), 1979)
    A new approach is proposed for the management of operating system state data. Relational database concepts are suggested for the analysis and organization of this data, and a common central service routine is described ...
  • Managing and Documenting 10-20 Man Year Projects 
    Visser, P. (Computer Society of South Africa (on behalf of SAICSIT), 1983)
    This paper presents a summary of tutorial material on accepted management techniques and philosophies as applied to the development of large software systems, based upon the documentation for such systems.
  • Managing large programming classes using computer mediated communication and cognitive modelling techniques 
    Harmse, RG; Pullen, G (1998)
    This paper describes a proposed solution to address some of the problems encountered when attempting to teach programming to a large number of students with diverse backgrounds and vastly different levels of technological ...
  • Managing methods creatively 
    Mcleod, G (South African Computer Society (SAICSIT), 1992)
    Organizations have used systems planning and development methodologies for some time now. Results are mixed, with some reporting substantial benefits, and others abandoning the process without achieving the desired benefits. ...
  • Managing the operational implications of Information Systems 
    Potgieter, BC (2001)
    Computer scientists and information technologists are morally obliged to study the social impact of their technologies. They must also consider the results of the non-positivistic · approaches that are generally avoided ...
  • Markovian analysis of DQDB MAC protocol 
    Bause, F; Kritzinger, P; Sczittnick, M (South African Computer Society (SAICSIT), 1994)
    The Distributed Queue Dual Bus (DQDB) protocol or IEEE 802.6 has been accepted as the international standard for Metropolitan Area Networks (MAN). This paper describes a combined MIG/I and Markov model for the steady state ...
  • A measurement strategy to support total quality management in a systems development environment 
    Ngubane, SB (1995)
    This paper discusses the development and implementation of a set of measures which support a Total Quality Management (TOM) process in a Systems Development environment. This process is taking place in the background of ...
  • Mechanising execution sequence semantics in HOL 
    Tredoux, G (South African Computer Society (SAICSIT), 1992)
    The mechanization in Higher Order Logic of a general- purpose operational semantics for programming languages is described. The mechanization allows the sound derivation of Dijkstra-style axiomatic semantics. A small ...
  • The Memory Organization of Future Large Processors 
    Stein, David M. (Computer Society of South Africa (on behalf of SAICSIT), 1980)
    In this paper some specifics and some generalities on the subject of memory organization for future large processors are discussed. We briefly review the current hierarchy and discuss technological and economic changes ...
  • Metadata and security management in a persistent store 
    Berman, Sonia (South African Computer Society (SAICSIT), 1994)
    Since its emergence in the early eighties, persistence has become an important branch of Computer Science. Many persistent systems have now been developed and a wide variety of related issues have been well researched. Two ...
  • Metamodelling in automated software engineering 
    Figueira, R; Berman, S (2000)
    This paper describes a metamodelling system that has been created at the University of Cape Town as part of an integrated software engineering environment called the Persistent Programmers Workshop. The workshop architecture ...
  • A method of controlling quality of application software 
    Crossman, T.D. (South African Institute of Computer Scientists and Information Technologists, 1991)
    This paper describes the inspection team process and explores its value to the application developer. The conclusion reached is that the technique does incur added development costs, but the whole process brings with it ...
  • A method to generate occam skeletons from formal specifications 
    Ikram, IM (1995)
    We consider the problem of automatically generating parallel programs in the occam language. In particular, we are concerned with the generation of program skeletons, that define just those computations that are common ...
  • A methodology for integrating legacy systems with the client/server environment 
    Redelinghuys, M; Steenkamp, AL (1996)
    The research is conducted in the area of software methodologies with the emphasis on the integration of legacy systems with client/server environments. The investigation starts with identifying the characteristics of legacy ...
  • Micro-Code Implementation of Language Interpreters 
    Roets, P. P. (Computer Society of South Africa (on behalf of SAICSIT), 1982)
    An evaluation is made of the improvement of language interpreters by coding recurring sequences of instructions in micro-code. The results of an experiment with PASCAL indicate that the increase in speed expected may not ...
  • Migrations: A Microcomputer-Based Generalized Information Retrieval System 
    Pino, Jose A. (Computer Society of South Africa (on behalf of SAICSIT), 1984)
    This paper describes the design of MIGRATIONS, a software system under development at the University of Chile, whose purpose is to store, manage and retrieve unformatted text information. Among the most important design ...
  • MINIX for a distributed database system 
    Meumann, MD; Rennhackkamp, MH (South African Institute of Computer Scientists and Information Technologists, 1990)
    A user of a distributed database management system must be able to access data which is stored on a number of different sites, connected by a network, without being aware of the physical data distribution. The NRDNIX ...
  • Mobile agents at ISADS 97 
    Vosloo, I (South African Computer Society (SAICSIT), 1997)
