Multicore Specification Generation System

ABSTRACT  Performance analysis is the task of monitoring the behaviour of a program execution. The main goal is to find out the possible adjustments that might be done in order to improve the performance of the computer system in use. To be able to get that improvement, it is necessary to find the different causes/contributors of overhead. Today, we are already in the multicore era, but there is a gap between the level of development of the two main divisions of multicore technology (hardwar...

Virtual University Administration (Personnel Management)

ABSTRACT   Personnel department is service-oriented towards staff and entails day-to-day activities of units some of whose functions overlap and involves recruitment of staff, retirement of staff, termination of appointment, processing of request for sabbatical leave, staff training and development, pension funds administration, health management organization, etc., and will be easier, faster and secure adopting a virtual approach rather than its manual counterpart. This project work will e...

Synthesis and Evaluation for Biological Activities of Npyridin-3-Yl Substituted [Phenylsulphonamido] Acetamide

ABSTRACT In this study, a series of N-pyridin-3-yl substituted [phenylsulphonamido] acetamide has been synthesized. The reaction of phenylsulphonyl chloride with various amino acids in basic medium yielded phenylsulphonamido alkanoic acid which, on chlorination with thionyl chloride, gave acid chloride derivatives of phenylsulphonamido alkanoic acid in situ. The acid chloride derivatives on condensation with 3-aminopyridine gave corresponding acetamide in good to excellent yield. The compoun...

Development of a Task Management Email System

Abstract  This project work analyzed the relevance of the Email in modern business practices and organization. As SMEs and large firms expand, they are faced with the problem of managing numerous staff dispersed in diverse field offices. There is a need to send up-to-date information about their products to a larger clientele. The proposed system design provides a management tool that handles employee task management, internal communication and information dissemination. The new system desig...

Multivariate Approach to Time Series Model Identification

ABSTRACT  This work suggests an exact and systematic model identification approach which is entirely new and addresses most of the challenges of existing methods. We developed quadratic discriminant functions for various orders of autoregressive moving average (ARMA) models. An Algorithm that is to be used alongside our functions was also developed. In achieving this, three hundred sets of time series data were simulated for the development of our functions. Another twenty five sets of simul...

Effect of Magnetic Field on the Thermal Conductivity of Single Crystal

ABSTRACT This research investigated the effect of magnetic field on the thermal conductivity of high temperature type II superconductors. The result suggested that the thermal conductivity of high temperature type II superconductor YBa2Cu3O7- decreases as the applied magnetic field increases at a given temperature. We also found out that the superconducting energy gap of YBa2Cu3O7- decreases in response to increasing temperature and applied magnetic field. At a critical temperature of ...

The Gateway for the people with Special needs: Connecting people to information and services through web portal

This paper describes a research project which developed a Web Portal for the peoples with disabilities or people with special needs and their family members (if any of them are disabled).In India 2.21% of total population in India has disability . In them 2.41% of male population in India is disabled and 2.01% of female population are disabled[7] according to stats of 2021A web portal has been developed as part of a research project undertaken as a part of minor project. The project objecti...

Integrated Aerogeophysical Methods for Litho-Structural Characterisation and Radiological Hazard Assessment of Parts of the Igarra Schist Belt, Southwestern Nigeria

ABSTRACT Integrated aerogeophysical datasets (aeromagnetic and airborne radiometric) were used for the litho-structural and depth characterisation and to assess the environmental radiation risks in part of Igarra, southwestern Nigeria. The total magnetic intensity (TMI) reduced to the magnetic equator gridded data were enhanced using first vertical derivative, analytic signal, tilt derivative, and spectral and Euler deconvolution analyses to improve and enhance the subsurface rocks’ textura...

Impact of Abattoir Effluent on the Quality of Asata and Owo Streams in Enugu, South Eastern Nigeria

ABSTRACT  Abattoir activities are accompanied by some negative influence on the environment if not properly managed. The impact of abattoir effluent on the quality of Asata and Owo (a tributary to Asata) streams in Enugu was studied. Field observation revealed that the inhabitants of the study area make use of the stream water. Two sets of questionnaire were administered. Hundred copies of one set of questionnaire was administered to the people downstream to obtain information on the various...

Accident Information Management System with I-Report Facilities

ABSTRACT  This project is an accident information management system with i-report facilities. Accident information is necessary as accident rate has increased tremendously and lives and properties are destroyed every day in Nigeria by road accidents. In other to reduce its reoccurrence, proper documentation of accident information is necessary. An accident information system enables researchers, government and insurance companies who are interested in accident data to collect data from the d...

Geophysical Investigation of Abakaliki Area using Aeromagnetic Method

ABSTRACT  Aeromagnetic data over Abakaliki area of the lower Benue trough of Nigeria was interpreted qualitatively and quantitatively using Oasis montaj software (version: 6.4.2 H.J).The interpretation unveiled basic intrusive bodies like dyke, lacolyte and batholyte in the study area. It also showed fault zone which trends North East to south western (NE-SW) part of the study area. Quantitative interpretation of the area was carried out by source parameter imaging and forward and inverse mo...

Mathematical Model on Human Population Dynamics Using Delay Differential Equation

ABSTRACT Simple population growth models involving birth rate, death rate, migration, and carrying capacity of the environment were considered. Furthermore, the particular case where there is discrete delay according to the sex involved in the population growth were treated. The equilibrium and stability analysis of each of the cases were considered also. The stability analysis shows that the discrete delays in the population growth lead to instability in the growth. TABLE OF CONTENTS CERTIFI...

Middle Paleocene to Early Miocene Palynostratigraphy of Sediments in Bende – Umuahia Area, Niger Delta Basin, Southeastern Nigeria.

ABSTRACT Cenozoic sediments outcrop in the Niger Delta Basin. Deposits in the Basin thicken southward (down-dip) but thin northward (up-dip) around Bende – Umuahia area where approximately 260 m thick exposure was logged from base to top. Sieve analysis and petrography were carried out to establish the depositional settings of sediments while palynological analysis was undertaken in order to identify palynomorphs and establish their biozonations, determine and correlate age of sediments, as...

Spatial Pattern of Industrial Production Subcontracting in Onitsha Metropolis, Anambra State Nigeria

ABSTRACT The study was aimed at examining the spatial pattern of industrial production subcontracting in Onitsha Metropolis Anambra State Nigeria. Data were collected from documentary materials, questionnaire, in-depth interviews and field observation and were analysed using percentages, mean, standard deviation, nearest neighbour analysis and principal component analysis. The results of the study revealed that production subcontracting by firm size was more prominent in small and medium scal...

Information Website Kampala International University Accommodation Service Providers

ABSTRACT This research project was conducted to avail a centralized source of information concerning accommodation services provided by private hostels and other rental buildings for Kampala International University members. Current accommodations services provide by the university are limited.
