Under this research project an investigation will be made of the application of Aditi to network management. Ph.D. in progress. This research project will address such questions when seeking economies in digital message transmission by means of an optimised lexicon, phonetic word formation and an associated digital character coder. Ph.D. in progress. This project is directed towards the problems of statistical process control applied to continuous streams of product with particular emphasis on the chemical industry.
Major concern is with the issues of instability, data correlation and product evaluation.
Ph.D. in progress. This project is aimed at extending the recent work at the interface between statistical process control and engineering control. The work considers the issues of process control in situations where stability is generally unattainable and where some form of feedback control is necessary. This thesis uses a range of problems ranging from the Knapsack problem to Cutting Stock problems to investigate the issues of mapping and representation in Genetic Algorithms. The results obtained from solving these problems using GAs will be compared to solutions obtained by more traditional methods so that the relative strengths of GAs compared to the more traditional methods so that the relative strengths of GAs compared to the more traditional methods can be reported.
