  • Indexing in a case-based reasoning system for waste management 
    Wortmann, KL; Petkov, D; Senior, E (South African Computer Society (SAICSIT), 1999)
    This paper presents a summary of research on indexing in Case-Based Reasoning (CBR) applied to the domain of waste management. Indexing theory and techniques are covered in order to position the results. The chosen application ...
  • Heuristics for resolution-based set-theoretic proofs 
    Van der Poll, JA; Labuschagne, WA (South African Computer Society (SAICSIT), 1999)
    A formal specification language like Z permits the specifier to construct proofs which corroborate the aptness of the spec­ification. This process may be facilitated by establishing a partnership between the specifier and ...
  • A declarative and non-determinist framework for dynamic object-oriented and constraint logic programming 
    Abdulrab, H; Ngomo, M; Drissi-Talbi, A (South African Computer Society (SAICSIT), 1999)
    LOP (Logic, Object, Parallelism) is a system that integrates object-oriented and constraint logic programming. It is entirely designed and implemented, using object-oriented methodology, under the form of hierarchical ...
  • Connected digit recognition in Afrikaans using hidden Markov models 
    Nieuwoudt, C; Botha, EC (South African Computer Society (SAICSIT), 1999)
    We implement and evaluate the performance of a state-of-the-art connected digit recognition system for spoken Afrikaans digits. The creation of a database for our purpose is discussed. Results indicate that an efficient ...
  • Discriminators for authorship attribution 
    Paijmans, H (South African Computer Society (SAICSIT), 1999)
    This paper describes some experiments with the automated attribution of authorship. Lexical cohesion in combination with machine learning techniques are used as a method to compare texts of different authors. A methodology ...
  • Electronic performance support systems: appropriate technology for the development of middle management in developing countries 
    Cronje, JC; Baras Baker, SJ (South African Computer Society (SAICSIT), 1999)
    The shortage of suitably qualified middle management in South Africa, and its impact on the potential success of the RDP is well documented. There are various ways of addressing this problem. These methods range from ...
  • Progressing towards object orientation in South Africa 
    Jansen van Rensburg, M (South African Computer Society (SAICSIT), 1999)
    This article provides a description of the current state of Object Orientation in South African companies. It forms part of an MSc research report, looking at the pitfalls and guidelines in the transition to 00. The problems ...
  • A formal model for object bases 
    Patsouris, PA; Korostenski, M; Kissimov, V (South African Computer Society (SAICSIT), 1999)
    We introduce FMOB: a formal model for Objectbases. The term "Objectbase" represents better the widely used "object­ oriented database". FMOB consists of ( 1) objects (classes and their instances) with extended encapsulation ...
  • A 3-dimensional security classification for information 
    Smuts, W (South African Computer Society (SAICSIT), 1999)
    Most existing information security classification schemes use a 1-dimensional scale such as [top secret, secret, employee confidential, company confidential, restricted]. These classification schemes do not differentiate ...
  • Orthogonal ray guarding of adjacencies between orthogonal rectangles 
    Sanders, I; Lubinsky, D; Sears, M; Kourie, D (South African Computer Society (SAICSIT), 1999)
    Guarding and covering problems have great importance in Computational Geometry. In this article the notion of' a ray guard, a guard that can only 'see' along a single ray, is introduced. The problem of siting the fewest ...
  • Computer Science and Information Systems: the future? 
    Machanick, P (South African Computer Society (SAICSIT), 1999)
