The report has seven chapters and the first one being an introduction part which details the background of the system, the problem statement, objectives, scope, justification, budget, time schedule and the system requirements. The report also...

Trackforce Safety Compliance System

ABSTRACT  Trackforce Safety Compliance System is a system that will be used to ensure that all the contractors and employees who are contracted to perform different task are qualified and in good health to perform the assigned tasks. The system will ensure that before the contractor or employee commences their work, they have undergone the necessary physical checkup, test including environmental awareness of the different hazards that they are exposed to in the heavily mechanised environment...

Structural Complexity Framework And Metrics For Analyzing The Maintainability Of Sassy Cascading Style Sheets

ABSTRACT One of the most popular languages in the web domain is Cascading Style Sheet (CSS). The language has evolved over time with the latest development being the introduction of CSS preprocessors which has made it possible to write CSS codes in a faster and efficient way. Therefore, the migration from CSS to CSS preprocessors by the frontend developers has been tremendous. There are several CSS preprocessors available in the industry with the Syntactically Awesome Style Sheets (SASS) beco...

Estimation Of Variation About The Mean Using Geometric Measure

ABSTRACT A measure of dispersion is a statistical tool used to define the distribution of various datasets mainly from measures of central tendency. Some notable measures of dispersion from the mean are; average deviation, mean deviation, variance, and standard deviation. However, from previous studies, it has been established that the aforementioned measures are not absolutely perfect in estimating average variation from the mean. For instance, variance gives estimates which are of different...

Macro Invertebrate Diversity And Physicochemical Factors As Indicators Of Water Quality Within Nzoia Sugarcane Company Nucleus In Western Kenya

ABSTRACT Sugarcane production is important in our day to day life though it causes water pollution which reduces the water quality. Despite its threat to water quality, not much is known about the impacts of agronomic inputs on macro invertebrates in Nzoia sugar Company Nucleus ecosystem. Nzoia sugar company nucleus receives water from Kuywa River which is a tributary of Nzoia River and discharges a diverse array of pollutants to the river. Studies on Nzoia sugar company nucleus to determine ...

Effect Of Combustible Material And Force On Porosity Of Ceramic Membrane

ABSTRACT Ceramics are inorganic, nonmetallic solids and crystalline amorphous materials whose molecules are held together by covalent bond and /or ionic bonds. They are usually; hard, brittle, stable to high temperatures, less dense than metals, more elastic and have very high melting points. Ceramics are mostly made from clay soil. Ceramic water filtration involves the use of a porous ceramic (annealed clay) medium to filter microbes and other contaminants from water. The ceramic water filte...

Statistical Thermodynamics Of High Tctwo Band Superconductivity In Mgb2.

ABSTRACT Thermodynamic properties of the multiband high critical temperature superconductors have been describedpreviously with simple standard BCS expressions corresponding to and bands, but the microscopic mechanisms that allow superconductivity to persist at high temperatures remain unknown. Studies on two band superconductors have previously been described through one band model; this approach has not adequately addressed cases of inter-band scattering for superconductors at high temperat...

Internet of Things Based Greenhouse

ABSTRACT The purpose of this study was to develop a system that can help farmers and garden enthusiasts to manage their greenhouses by the use of a network of sensors connected together and controlled by a central hub. This complies with the world vision of connecting as much devices together as possible that has been dubbed the Internet of Things phenomenon. The system makes use of sensors that a controlled by a central controller that sends the data to a server that streams the data to an ...

It is called UNI-COL WEB ERP.This system is developed as a web application and also a mobile application for students’ portal that runs on android, windows and IOS operating systems. The system targets higher learning institutions, i.e universities and colleges. I have implemented the following modules/sub-systems: student portal, finance system, library system, i-voting system and m-voting system, HR system, employee por...

Natural Radioactivity Levels In Rocks And Sand From Tyaa River In Mwingi, Kitui County

ABSTRACT The variability of background radiation from primordial radionuclides has led to the exposure of human beings to radiation doses of different ranges. Prompt or delayed harmful effects as a result of radiation exposure have been reported in areas with enhanced levels of radioactivity. The residents of Kitui County near Tyaa River and the surrounding regions heavily mine sand and rocks from its riverine for construction purposes despite the scanty information on the potential harm in c...

Effectiveness Of Teaching Þÿ P R E P A R A T I O N S O N S T U D E N T S Achievement, Attitude, Motivation And Classroom Interactions In Mathematics In Public Secondary Schools, Makueni Distr

ABSTRACT As more and more Kenyans attach great value to education, there is need to look at use of instructional products on academic performance of students. Enough evidence abounds to show that students have problems in understanding concepts and skills, which are not systematically presented in mathematics. This study was designed to investigate the instructional potential of instructional plans in the teaching and learning of vectors in mathematics. The study adopted the Solomon Four-grou...

Application Of Markov Chain Model In Transition Of Girls In Public Secondary Schools; A Case Study Of Kisumu West Sub-County, Kenya

ABSTRACT Transition is a very important factor in determining success of a student in secondary school. It forms a basis for implementing poverty reduction strategy by the government through acquisition of basic literal skills to increase opportunities for employment. Girls have not had an efficient transition from form one to the next form in secondary schools because of choices of secondary school types they enroll in. This research uses a Markov chain model to compare and predict the perce...

Selected Physiological And Growth Response Of Four Soy Beanvarieties To Aluminium Chloride Stress

ABSTRACT Soy bean v arieties commonly gro wn in Kenya`s acidic soils that contain aluminium are SB 97, SB 19, SB 20 and SB 123. Soy bean grains have high protein content, vitamins and used to manufacture industrial products. Aluminium toxicity affect growth and physiology of plant growth . The effects of aluminium chloride solution on plant growth, uptake of mineral nutrients and di stribution in vegetative parts of soy beans are still not fully understood. The objective of this study was to ...

Research and Development of a mobile voice over IP application which is hosted by open source software running on inexpensive backend servers

ABSTRACT Voice over IP has been driven by the convergence of voice and data on a single transport medium. This means cheaper service usage fees for the user if the offering is costed properly. But for a service provider there is still an increase in expenditure, solely related to spending on infrastructure such as call servers, phones and gateways. This study is aimed at analysing a different strategy of deploying VoIP, by starting at a lower base, meaning hosting the VoIP application on ine...
