The Reticulation of Communication Networks
The overarching goal of this project was to make some significant advance toward a theoretical explanation of observable instances of communication in organizations and in social collectives more generally. The principal approach to this phenomenon has been the study of communication networks, and …

Learning informally on the job : reflections from the coalface : a case study of a municipal water reticulation depot in the City of Cape Town
This dissertation explores questions relating to informal learning by workers in a municipal workplace. It aims to understand what knowledge workers have about their work, how they have learnt what they know, the context within which learning happens and how power relations impact on the learning …

Study and implementation of load monitoring on an 11 kV underground cable distribution network
… forming part of an 11 kV underground cable reticulation network. Load information was currently only available from feeders connected to the 132/11 kV stepdown substations which provide infeeds to the system. The staff felt that the availability of feeder load information from the protected …

Bayesian Inference of Phylogenetic Networks
… phylogenetic networks with different numbers of reticulation events correspond to points of different dimensions in the space of models, we devised a reversible-jump Markov chain Monte Carlo (RJMCMC) technique for sampling the posterior distribution of phylogenetic networks under the MSNC. Given …

Phylogeny Inference in the Presence of Incomplete Lineage Sorting, Gene Duplication and Loss and Hybridization
… This model was later extended to allow for reticulation events (e.g., hybridization), and statistical methods for inferring phylogenetic networks were developed. Birth-death models of gene evolution have also been introduced to capture gene duplications and losses, and species tree inference …

Evaluating water performance on platinum mine shafts using a benchmarking technique
… performance, yet its application to water reticulation systems in platinum mines is limited by a lack of industry-specific guidance. This study addresses this gap by applying structured benchmarking techniques to water usage in platinum mines through a multiple case study approach. The …

Performance analysis for a shaded-pole linear induction motor
… motors can be used is rural areas with simple reticulation systems, hence the renewed interest in the development of these low-power electrical motors, especially specialised models such as linear versions of such motors for special applications. This research is in the area of single-phase …

The utilisation of spatial planning in improving urban water culture: a case study of Oranjezicht, Cape Town
… flowing to the Atlantic Ocean via the stormwater reticulation system. This water originates from Table Mountain's rivers, streams and, to an extent, springs. Naturally, the drought has sparked widespread concern for, and attention given to, water and its sustainable usage. This dissertation …

Inference of parsimonious species phylogenies from multi-locus data
… second problem this dissertation deals with is reticulation (e.g., horizontal gene transfer, hybridization) detection despite lineage sorting. The phylogeny-based approach compares the evolutionary histories of different genomic regions and test them for incongruence that would indicate …
