A Geographical Information System for ZETDC

ABSTRACT The main motive behind the research was to derive an answer to the discovered problems of the current system of the Zimbabwe Electricity Transmission and Distribution (ZETDC) with regards to the way the fault reports were being carried out and the quality of services offered. The conduction of research through research methodologies such as questionnaires, observations as well as interviews led to problems identification such as being more manual since it does not allow the ZETDC ele...

Online enquiry and bill payments management system for a local authority

ABSTRACT Plumtree Town Council is an urban local authority located in Plumtree town in Matebeleland South district of Zimbabwe. It is situated 100 km away from the City of Bulawayo along Bulawayo Botswana road and railway line, 10 km from the border. It services local residents, outlying farmers in Bulilima and Mangwe rural districts as well as tourists as it is a border town. Like other local authorities it is under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Public Construction Rural and Urban Plan...

Asset Management And Faults Rectifying System

ABSTRACT The purpose of this project, the Zimbabwe Electricity Transmission and Distribution Company (ZETDC) Assets management and faults rectifying system was based on the provision of an indepth and detailed records of newly acquired assets and faults reports. Assets acquired are maintained and monitored by the system. Automatically the system schedules attention on assets that needs maintenance and those that require to be disposed. Faults rectification process was instigated as a result o...

Gcc E Procurement System

ABSTRACT This research is aimed at development of an E Procurement System that is meant to assist the procurement department in procurement decision making processes. The researcher had proposed the idea of introducing a new system after discovering problems that were being experienced as a result of manual processes, some of the problems include; delays in procurement decision making, there was no a website to update suppliers about new tenders at Gweru City Council, there is no system in pl...

Gweru Hospital Telemedicine App

Abstract In line with National Development Priorities and the UN Millennium Development Goals as documented in the Zim-Asset blueprint under the Social Services and Poverty Eradication cluster, the health care system is not greatly benefiting from the wide spread use of ICT solutions countrywide. Every process in the medical sector requires the patient and the health practitioner to be in the same room regardless of the nature of visit. Thus unnecessary meetings like consultations, education,...

Epidemiological Study Of Rift Valley Fever Virus In Kigoma, Tanzania

ABSTRACT Rift Valley fever (RVF) is an acute, zoonotic viral disease, caused by a Phlebovirus belonging to the Bunyaviridae family. RVF virus (RVFV) historically has been responsible for large explosive outbreaks of severe human and animal disease throughout Africa and recently in the Arabian Peninsula. In animals, it mainly affects domestic ruminants such as sheep, goats and cattle. RVFV outbreaks among livestock are economically devastating and often characterized by large sweeping abortion...

Decision Support & Forecasting System

ABSTRACT To begin with DSW didn’t have a proper software to capture and report its daily activities expediently, the espousal of the M&E department in the organisation reviewed a high frequency of data discrepancies and anomalies in the company records, which then triggered the company to have an interest on investing in a more current, secure, fluid and comprehensible system that is partially intelligent to gear up the decision making process while being able to be associated with any of t...

Health Centre Management Information System, Its Design And Implementation (A Case Study Of Maasai Mara University Health Unit)

ABSTRACT The continued expansion and growth in global technologies has led to the development of many new electronic health information management systems to improve efficiencies and quality of care within the field of medicine. Maasai Mara University is a growing world class university. There is a necessity for competent administration in the university’s health unit. This project suggests the computerizing of all the records about patients, staff and drug/equipment supplies in the health ...

On The Characterization Of The Unit Groups Of A Class Of Total Quotient Rings

ABSTRACT Let R be a completely primary nite ring of characteristic pk, where p is a prime and k is a positive integer. Such nite rings have been studied extensively in recent years and the tools necessary for describing completely primary nite rings have been available for some time. However, their characterization is not exhaustive. Several attempts have been made in the recent past in the characterization of the unit groups of this class of rings though not in general. The characterization ...

Certain Geometric Aspects Of A Class Of Almostcontact Structures On A Smooth Metric Manifold.

ABSTRACT The classication of Smooth Geometric Manifolds still remains an open problem. The concept of almost contact Riemannian manifolds provides neat descriptions and distinctions between classes of odd and even dimensional manifolds and their geometries. Among the classes that have been extensively studied in the past are the Hermitian, Symplectic, Khalerian, Complex, Contact and Almost Contact manifolds which have applications in M-Theory and supergravity among other areas. The dierential...

Predator-Prey Model With Logistic Growth For Constantand Density-Dependent Delayed Migration

ABSTRACT Predator-prey models describe the interaction between two species, the prey which serves as a food source to the predator. The migration of the prey for safety reasons after a predator attack and the predator in search of food, from a patch to another may not be instantaneous. This may be due to barriers such as a swollen river or a busy infrastructure through the natural habitat. Recent predator-prey models have either incorporated a logistic growth for the prey population or a time...
