ABSTRACT The study area is located in the Abakaliki formation of Asu-River group Lower Benue Trough. The area lies between latitude N060221 011to N060 281 011of the equator and longitude E0080 001 011 to E 0080 061 011of the Greenwich meridian. The study was carried out to ascertain the geology and the occurrence of groundwater in the area through detail geological field mappings geophysical investigation and pumping test. Field observations shows that the area is made up of two lithologic...
Abstract: Environmental factors such as topography, climate, geology, biotic factors and land-use activities are largely responsible for creating local differences in soil characteristics. These in turn create variations in the agricultural potential and management options of the soils that need detailed study in order to have adequate and comprehensive information and be able to solve site specific problems related to their sustainable use. However, there exists still a dearth of data in th...
ABSTRACT Growth to a worldwide scale in the 21st century has ensued innovative ways of teaching and learning. The traditional method of teaching and learning of science is fast losing its acceptance and impact in the educational sector. Computers have become increasingly important among science educators as they play important roles during the instruction of students in the science classroom. To demonstrate conditions of conceptual change in science learning, simulation-based environments a...
This research is on the challenges of cost benefit analysis in a computerized Accounting System. The purpose of this study is to enquire into the viability or other wise of computerized accounting Systems, with particularly reference to coca-cola Bottling Company, Enugu. The objective of the study is to ascertain if the introduction computer system may lead to industrial unrests as workers resists change.

ABSTRACT The thermal performance of solar drying methods (cabinet direct, cabinet mixed-mode and tunnel drying), biochemical, sensory, rehydration and shelf-life qualities of mango banana, pineapple and tomato varieties were investigated in this study. Collector efficiencies and drying rates were computed and compared to measure the performance of dryers. The results showed tunnel dryer had significantly (p
ABSTRACT Computer Aided Design (CAD) and Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM) is the use of technology to design and produce textile goods with greater productivity at low cost. It s usage demands some level of training and competency. The purpose of the study was to assess CAD CAM training, competency and usage in textile industries of Nor thern Nigeria in order to develop a CAD CAM training model. The objectives of study were to identify the level of CAD-CAM training received, to examine the ...
A man wakes up in the morning to the sound of his digital alarm clock and immediately checks his e-mail. He turns on the television, which has a V-chip to keep his children from watching what may be violent. He gets dressed, gets in his car, and drives to work where he works as the network administrator at a local steel company. It is amazing all of the things this man uses in the morning alone that would not be possible if it were not for computer technology. From his alarm clock to his e-ma...
ABSTRACT Mathematics plays an important role in the scientific and development of all nations. In Kenya mathematics is compulsory in all Primary and secondary schools. However the performance in the subject at the National Examinations has remained below average with marked gender differences. The students‘ performance in some mathematics topics such as ―Loci‖ has been wanting. The reason for the poor performance in mathematics and the Loci topic in particular has been attributed to se...

ABSTRACT The access to a restricted area within a premise is normally done through a manual system of keys and locks. This has been automated through the use of personal identification number (PIN) or passwords and smartcard technology. However, such systems are faced with a number of limitations such as losing a smartcard, forgetting a PIN, duplication of keys and impersonation. Thus, the use of an authentication system such as biometric verification techniques has become an effective altern...
