Abstract

The paper will introduce into the method of the GHQUAR algorithm and will provide information on how to use the software. Recently, a procedure to protect sets of multiple linked tables has become available for GHQUAR. This procedure, the software GHMITER, will also be illustrated in this paper. Another new tool to support GHQUAR which is needed particularly when the program is used to protect tables in a user-demand driven tabulation process will be presented as well. Finally, the paper gives some information on plans for the development of graphical user interfaces for GHQUAR and the supporting routines, relating particularly to the link between πARGUS and GHQUAR to be created as one task of the CASC project.
