  • Characteristics of high-performing information systems project managers and project teams 
    Smith, DC (1998)
    Projects, and their success, are vital if organisations are to produce new products and services. The key players in IS projects are the project manager and the project team. This paper discussed ongoing research of two ...
  • A data structure for exchanging geographical information 
    Cooper, AK (1987)
    Geographical information consists of non-spatial information (alphanumeric) and spatial information (vector and raster), the relationships between the non-spatial information and the spatial information, as well as the ...
  • Design patterns for user interfaces 
    Warren, PR; Viljoen, M (1998)
    This work reports on 23 third year student' s projects in which the user interfaces (UI) were found wanting. We show in which ways we regard the UI to be in error. However, an examination of the available literature on UI ...
  • Experience with a pattern-matching code generator 
    Mulders, MA; Serwy, DA; Van Biljon, WR (1987)
    An implementation of a Graham-Glanville type pattern-matching code generator for the NRIMS systems programming language SCRAP is discussed. The simple heuristic algorithm on which the pattern matcher is based is presented ...
  • Expert systems for management control: a multi-expert architecture 
    Ram, V (South African Computer Society (SAICSIT), 1991)
    The use of Expert Systems technology in management decision making domains is increasing rapidly as business environments worldwide grow more turbulent and as the cost of development tools decrease. Research effort in ...
  • Finite-state computational morphology - treatment of the Zulu noun 
    Pretorius, L; Bosch, SE (2001)
    Morphological analysis is a basic enabling application for further kinds of natural lan guage processing, including part-of-speech tagging, parsing, translation and other high-level applications. Automated morphological ...
  • Implication in three-valued logics of partial information 
    Britz, K (2001)
    In formal logic, both semantic entailment and the conditional connective are used to formalize the intuitive notion of implication. The former is defined in the meta-language of the logic, and the latter in the language ...
  • Information security management: the second generation 
    Von Solms, R (1996)
    Information security has moved a long way from the early days when physical security, together with a set of backups, fonned the backbone of a company's security controls. Today, infonnation security is all about policies, ...
  • A new algorithm for finding an upper bound of the genus of a graph 
    Carson, DI; Oellermann, OR (1991)
    In this paper we discuss the problem of finding an upper bound on the genus of a graph. This problem has applications to circuit layouts. An electronic circuit may be modelled by a graph. By punching holes into the circuit ...
  • Non-orthogonal ray guarding 
    Sanders, I (1998)
    In an earlier paper the notion of a ray guard --'- a guard that can only see along a single ray, was introduced. The ray guarding problem is in siting the fewest possible such guards so that they guard all adjacencies ...
  • Protocol performance using image protocols 
    Kritzinger, PS (1987)
    Performance analyses of data communication systems do not always rely on a detailed analysis of the underlying protocols. Those analyses which do, usually rely on an analysis of the protocol state transition graph. These ...
  • The role of IT in Business Process Reengineering 
    Blewett, CN; Cansfield, J; Gibson, L (1996)
    South African organisations are facing increasing demands stemming from growing competition, fast changing technologies and global trends and pressures. The methods and management structures enabled these organisations to ...
  • Set-oriented functional style of programming 
    Mueller, CSM (1987)
    A novel way of programming, which starts with specific details of a particular example and abstracts these details into generalised sets, is proposed. The whole program is constructed around the definition of these sets. ...
