• Cardinality constrained 0-1 Knapsack problems 

  Kruger, MF; Hattingh, JM; Steyn, T (2000)

  The Knapsack Problem is one of the most important problems in Discrete optimization. Although it is the simplest integer program, it has numerous practical applications and often appears as a subproblem in solving more ...
• Returns on the Stock Exchange 

  Kruger, JW (2000)

  The McGreggor database supplies the accounting information of companies listed on the Johannesburg stock exchange. These attributes are not significantly correlated to the Return. The Pearl's algorithm in Bayesian belief ...
• A risk model to allocate resources to different computerised systems 

  Kruger, HA; Hattingh, JM (1997)

  The majority of large organisations operate and maintain significant portfolios of computerised systems. All Information Systems (IS) managers are increasingly faced with the task of doing more with less. To cope with ...
• Model checking software with symbolic trajectory evaluation 

  Hazelhurst, S (1997)

  Traditional methods of testing computer systems, although valuable, are inadequate for ensuring sufficiently high quality in systems in which a high degree of reliability must be placed. Formal methods for development of ...
• On indexing in case based reasoning applied to pre-transportation decision making for hazardous waste handling 

  Wortmann, KL; Petkov, D; Senior, E (2000)

  Case Based Reasoning is an Artificial Intelligence technique that utilises the concept of reasoning from a stored knowledge base reflecting prior experience. It offers a number of advantages, such as learning and validation ...
• Object-oriented business modelling and re-engineering 

  Watzenboeck, M (2000)

  Financial industry and manufacturing are the main customers in migrating existing applications into client server environments. This paper helps in identifying the candidates for migration and suggests a method for ...
• The use of the Internet in an academic environment to commercially supply and support software products. 

  Braude, B; Walker, AJ (2000)

  This paper explores the use of the Internet to supply and support software products within a quality management system. The Software Engineering Applications Laboratory (SEAL) at the University of the Witwatersrand is in ...
• Early results of a comparative evaluation of ISO 9001 and ISO/IEC 15504 assessment methods applied to a software project. 

  Gee, C; Walker, AJ (2000)

  This paper presents early results of a comparative study undertaken on a software project. The methods used for assessment included an ISO 9001 based audit checklist for software (SABS ARP042), and the emerging ISO/IEC ...
• Beliefs of a resource-bounded agent 

  Viljoen, E (2000)

  Logics of belief and knowledge are typically formulated in terms of modal languages. A possible world semantics is traditionally used for such languages but when a formula A is read as "The agent believes that A", the ...
• Using a lattice to enhance adaptation guided retrieval in Example Based Machine Translation 

  Serutla, SL; Oosthuizen, GD (2000)

  Ease of retrieval is of crucial importance in case based reasoning (CBR). In fact, the performance of a CBR system depends on how such a system is able to retrieve relevant cases from memory and adapts them to suit new ...
• Ray guarding configurations of adjacent rectangles 

  Sanders, I; Lubinsky, D; Sears, M (2000)

  Guarding and covering problems have great importance in Computational Geometry. In this paper the notion of a ray guard, a guard that can only 'see' along a single ray, is introduced. The problem of siting the fewest ...
• More readings than I thought: quantifier interaction in analysing the temporal structure of repeated eventualities 

  Rock, S (2000)

  Focusing on the temporal structures of the events described by language, the sentence 'Simmer the soup stirring it occasional(y for fifteen minutes' without punctuation, has three syntactic structures, which give rise to ...
• Algebraic factorization of integers using BDE's 

  Messerschmidt, HJ; Robertson, J (2000)

  This paper outlines a new direct algebraic method for the factorization of integers. It shows how by using a mixed binary - decimal multiplication scheme the multiplication can be reconstructed from the product only. This ...
• A distributed approach to the scheduling problem 

  Ram, V; Warren, P (2000)

  The focus of many Artificial Intelligence approaches to solving the computer-based scheduling problem is on reducing the size of the search spaces that characterise such problems. The approach presented in this paper ...
