    Handley, C.C. (Computer Society of South Africa (on behalf of SAICSIT), 1986)
    The problem of finding all prime numbers less than some specified maximum is frequently set as an exercise to beginning programmers, particular students doing their first programming course at University. Several ...
  • Finding regular paths in acyclic graphs 
    Wood, PT (South African Institute of Computer Scientists and Information Technologists, 1990)
    Increasing the expressive power of relational query languages by providing some form of recursion is currently a topic of much research. For many recursive queries in relational databases, a relation can be represented ...
  • 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 ...
  • First year students’ understanding of the flow of control in recursive algorithms 
    Sanders, Ian Douglas; Scholtz, Tamarisk (African Journal of Research in Mathematics, Science and Technology Education, 2012-12)
    Recursion is an important concept for any computer science student to master. Many first year students develop the viable copies mental model of recursion and can successfully trace the execution of a simple recursive ...
  • The fixpoint theorem in the El-Calculus 
    Postma, SW; McGee, A (South African Institute of Computer Scientists and Information Technologists, 1990)
    The οr.1-calculus is presented as an extension to the standard 1-calculus, and a r.1-term called the strong conditional is discussed. The strong conditional is shown to be non-monotomic, and an extension is made to the ...
  • FODEM: a multi-threaded research and development method for educational technology 
    Suhonen, Jarkko; De Villiers, M.R. (Ruth); Sutinen, Erkki (2012)
    Formative development method (FODEM) is a multithreaded design approach that was originated to support the design and development of various types of educational technology innovations, such as learning tools, and online ...
  • The forecasting of transmission network loads 
    Payne, Daniel Frederik (1997-11)
    The forecasting of Eskom transmission electrical network demands is a complex task. The lack of historical data on some of the network components complicates this task even further. In this dissertation a model is ...
  • 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 ...
  • Formal usability testing - informing design 
    Van Greunen, D; Wesson, J (2001)
    The goal of this paper is to discuss the role of usability testing in software development in South Africa. Throughout the software industry software engineers develop user interfaces (Ul) with little or no support from ...
  • Formal verification with natural language specifications: guidelines, experiments and lessons so far 
    Holt, A (South African Computer Society (SAICSIT), 1999)
    The industrial take-up of formal verification techniques remains limited. Allowing specifications to be expressed in natural language (perhaps augmented with diagrams) offers the prospect of increasing the usability of ...
  • Formalising non-functional requirements embedded in user requirements notation (URN) models 
    Dongmo, Cyrille (2016-11)
    The growing need for computer software in different sectors of activity, (health, agriculture, industries, education, aeronautic, science and telecommunication) together with the increasing reliance of the society as a ...
  • Forming Communities of practice in Higher Education: a theoretical perspective 
    Jakovljevic, Maria; Buckley, Sheryl; Bushney, Melanie (ToKnowPressBangkok , Celje, Lublin, 2013)
    In the light of the development of the educational process, a by this the overall system, there occurs the permanent need for its advancement. Through the realization of that aim it will be contributed to the development ...
  • Four major success criteria for information system design 
    Mende, J. (South African Institute of Computer Scientists and Information Technologists, 1990)
    Both in the advancement of Information Systems theory and in practical development projects, significant errors of omission can occur unless one is aware of all aspects of the concept "information system success". At least ...
  • Fractal image compression 
    Cloete, E; Venter, LM (South African Computer Society (SAICSIT), 1998)
    Conventional image compression strategies present a number of uncomfortable limitations. Many of the impediments can be overcome by Fractal Image Compression (FIC). FIC is rooted strongly in mathematics. In comparison to ...
  • Frame clipping of polygons 
    Anderssen, E.C.; Von Solms, S.H. (Computer Society of South Africa (on behalf of SAICSIT), 1988)
    A polygon clipping algorithm is presented for the clipping of closed geographical areas such as dams or forests, against a surrounding rectangular windowframe. The algorithm employs a line clipping procedure which divides ...
  • A framework for a student-centred e-learning system in higher education institutions in Ethiopia 
    Simret Solomon Mulugeta (2021-02)
    Different studies have been conducted by researchers on e-learning in both the developed and developing world. However, in developing countries, particularly in Ethiopia, there are insufficient studies on e-learning ...
  • A framework for a successful collaboration culture in software development and operations (DevOps) environments 
    Masombuka, Koos Themba (2020-02)
    Traditional software development methodologies are historically used for the creation of software products in separate departments, namely development and operations departments. The development department typically ...
  • A framework for activity-based computer programming instruction in a blended learning environment 
    Freeman, Emmanuel (2021-03)
    The primary objective of this study is to develop a framework for an activity-based computer programming instructional approach in a blended learning environment of Higher Education Institutions. The impetus for this study ...
  • A framework for benchmarking e-governance projects in developing countries 
    Hatsu, Sylvester (2018-12)
    Investigations reveal that the failure rate of e-governance projects in developing countries is between 35% and 50% whereby, 35% is classified as a total failure and 50% is considered a partial failure. Furthermore, previous ...
  • A framework for cloud computing in resource constrained environments to facilitate e-government services : a case study in Ethiopia 
    Niguse, Giday G. (2019)
    In the past decade, an accelerated uptake, provision and use of public eService delivery has been noted. The trend can partly be ascribed to the phenomenal rate of broadband internet uptake on the one hand, and the exponential ...
