Quality of service in cloud computing: Data model; resource allocation; and data availability and security
(University of the Western Cape, 2019)
Recently, massive migration of enterprise applications to the cloud has been recorded in
the Information Technology (IT) world. The number of cloud providers offering their
services and the number of cloud customers ...
Cooperative data muling using a team of unmanned aerial vehicles
(University of the Western Cape, 2019)
Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) have recently o ered signi cant technological achievements. The
advancement in related applications predicts an extended need for automated data muling by UAVs, to
explore high risk places, ...
The use of remote sensing data to monitor pools along non-perennial rivers in the Western Cape, South Africa.
(University of the Western Cape, 2019)
The lack of monitoring of non-perennial rivers is a major problem for water resources
management, despite their significance in satisfying agricultural, economic and recreational
needs. Pools in non-perennial rivers are ...
Robust computational methods to simulate slow-fast dynamical systems governed by predator-prey models
(University of the Western Cape, 2019)
Numerical approximations of multiscale problems of important applications in ecology
are investigated. One of the class of models considered in this work are singularly perturbed
(slow-fast) predator-prey systems which ...
Quasi-uniform and syntopogenous structures on categories
(University of the Western Cape, 2019)
In a category C with a proper (E; M)-factorization system for morphisms, we further investigate
categorical topogenous structures and demonstrate their prominent role played
in providing a uni ed approach to the theory ...
Evaluation and comparison of current legal and regulatory framework for traditional medicines in five selected African countries: A move towards harmonization of regulation of traditional medicines in Africa.
(University of the Western Cape, 2019)
Background: In Africa, traditional medicine (TM) practice has been in existence since time
immemorial as the major source of pharmacotherapy. However, unlike orthodox medicines
TM policies and regulations are not formalised ...
MicroRNAs as predictive biomarkers for diagnosis and prognosis of colorectal cancer using in silico approaches
(University of the Western Cape, 2019)
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is referred to as cancers that arise in the colon or rectum. Rectal cancer
is most often defined as cancers originating within 15 cm from the anal verge. The crude
incidence of CRC in sub-Sahara ...
Development and validation of a pharmacogenomics profiling panel suitable for personalizing metformin therapy
(University of the Western Cape, 2019)
The burden of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) in South Africa is predicted to
increase substantially in the next decades if the necessary preventative measures are
not taken. The two most common NCDs associated with ...
Responses of maize Antioxidant Enzymes to drought stress
(University of the Western Cape, 2019)
Maize (Zea mays L) was subjected to drought stress for 28 days. The effects of the drought stress on growth, H2O2 content and lipid peroxidation were investigated and the activities of antioxidant enzymes [superoxide ...
