Abstract A single server Markovian queuing system called the M/M/1 queuing system with two distinct customer types namely; the constraint customer type and the un-constraint customer type is studied. This model is that of a production system with heterogeneous customer structures devoid of a single customer in the intersection category group wise. Initially, relevant literature covering methodologies, analysis and results derived for single server production systems are reviewed and a gap ide...
ABSTRACT Solar radiation data at horizontal level, tilted surfaces and in the atmosphere is an important feature in solar energy applications such as photovoltaic systems for electricity generation, solar collectors for heating and passive solar devices. This study presents an investigation of the dependence of global solar radiation incident on a tilted surface on some meteorological parameters for different tilt angles based on measured meteorological data of sunshine, relative humidity and...
ABSTRACT The study aimed at examining the effect of agricultural production on economic growth in Somalia from the period of 1986 to 2016 using time series data. Specifically, the study examined the causality and the effect of agricultural production on GDP growth. The objective was motivated by the fact that the problem statement emphasized that agricultural production has not yielded expected economic growth in Somalia. The study hypothesized that no casualty between agricultural production...
ABSTRACT This study investigated the influence of gross domestic product per capita, total fertility rate and HIV/AIDS prevalence rate (termed as determinants) on maternal mortality of Somalia in the period 1990-2012. This model is dedicated from demographic transition theory-derived from modernization theory. Secondary data between 1990 and 2012 inclusive collected from the publications of United Nations Statistics Division (UNSD) and World Health Organization (WHO) was used for this study. ...
ABSTRACT he purpose of the study was to investigate the relationship between the population growth and youth unemployment in Somalia. The specific objectives of the study were; to examine the long-run relationship, causation, and effect of population growth on youth unemployment rate. The study used a descriptive, correlation and longitudinal design and only employed the Quantitative research approach. L~ie study was carried out using secondary 4ata collected from 1991 to 2017.

ABSTRACT The study was carried out to estimate the levels of contamination and marketability of organic compost manures, derived from Kampala municipal solid wastes (MSW), sold along roads in the various suburbs of Kampala. The organic composts were sampled from five locations: Kawempe (KWP); Bwaise (BWS); Kitebi (KTB); Wankulukuku (WKK) and Ggaba-Kansanga (GGK~. The overall quality of the compost manures was determined by investigating selected physicochemical, trace metals and fertilizing p...

ABSTRACT Gender-based violence prevents people's enjoyment of fundamental human rights and it is also central social, economic and health problem. Similarly, gender-based violence is viewed as a significant problem throughout the world. However, in Rwanda studies on gender based violence prevention have done, Gender based violence is still problem. Most researches in this area were conducted but ICTs remain gender blind. The purpose of the study was to find out the use of mobile phones on Gen...
ABSTRACT Since it is very evident that it is almost impossible for the local producers to carryout quality assessment on locally produced food drinks such as Fura da nono, special attention needs to be paid to the hygiene procedures during the line of processing. In Bali metropolis of Taraba State, Nigeria, it was reported at a certain period of time in the year 2020 that some Fura da nono consumers (specifically the new migrants) came down with diarrhea after consumption. This led to this wo...
Abstract Eczema, an atopic dermatitis is one of the most economically important skin disorder, therefore remedial attention needs to be given to it. Unlike the orthodox belief, eczema is a genetic disorder of the epidermis (filaggrin, CARD 11 or KIF3A gene mutation) not an infection, therefore, treatment must be targeted towards correcting this rather than targeting Candida albicans, the yeast that infects the eczematous skin as a result of environmental exposure. Currently, all types of chem...
ABSTRACT This study aimed at investigating the seasonal variation in the levels of contamination in soils, food crops, and domestic spring water samples from Wakaliga dumpsite in Kampala. Potentially Toxic Elements (PTE) and physicochemical properties were analysed during the dry season (May-July 2017) and the wet season (September-November 2017) and the results compared to standard limits set by international and local agencies. The results obtained indicated that some of the elements were...
Abstract Locating files is one of the greatest problems in universities nowadays and large volumes of data are usually generated in most institutions of learning. Time is wasted in searching files, energy is misused in looking for misplaced files, deadlines are missed and sometimes files are lost. This study proposed the use of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology as a method of tracking and managing movement of files from one location to another within an organization, special ...
ABSTRACT This study was motivated by the fact the Uganda has one of the fastest population growth rates in the world accompanied by high unemployment rates thus the study aimed at investigating the relationship between population growth rates and youth unemployment in Uganda (1991 to 2014). The specific objectives of the study were; to find out the long run relationship between the population growth rate and youth unemployment rate in Uganda, to examine the causality between population grow...
ABSTRACT The purpose of the study was to assess the spatial distribution of road network and traffic congestion in Zaria. The study focuses on the road transportation system in Zaria Metropolis of Kaduna State, Nigeria. The objective of the study was to examine the various factors contributing to overall traffic congestion, assess the spatial distribution of the road network and determine the traffic hotspots area. Zaria was chosen for the research due to its strategic location as a transit...
