Abstract:
Previous work on shopping behaviour can be catergorised into three themes. Work has been done to identify different motivations for shopping, developing the original thinking of Stone, (1954) and Tauber, (1972). Work has been done on retail patronage, examining shopping behaviour from the image promoted by retailers, building upon the original work of Matineau, (1958) and Lindquist, (1974). A third body of work, somewhat less coherent, contains a collection of different models of patronage, the most relevant here being that concerned with retail location, based on the work of Huff, (1964) and

The first of these results applies to autonomous polynomial vector fields and provides necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of an open set of initial conditions for which the solutions will diverge to infinit

Abstract:
Bibliography: leaves 140-146.<br>Target Centring Algorithms were investigated for use in the Near-Real-Time-Photogrammetry NRTP system: PHOENICS. PHOENICS, a Photogrammetric Engineering and Industrial digital Camera System, has been developed over the past three years in the Surveying Department of UCT to provide a semi-automatic system to determine three dimensional co-ordinates of surfaces and objects using a photogrammetric method. Targets are attached to an object in order to facilitate measurement of the shape, size and orientation of the object. The centre of the target uniquely defines
