Bayesian Predictive Analyses For Non-Homogeneous Poisson Process In Software Reliability With Musa-Okumoto Intensity Function

ABSTRACT Due to rapid increase in development of complex computer systems over the past decades, there is need to estimate and predict the reliability of software systems during the testing process. Reliability refers to how well software meets its requirements and the probability of failure free operation for the specified period of time in a specified environment. The high demand and use of software has led to increased quest for more reliable software. For the past few decades several soft...

THE INFLUENCE OF SOCIAL NETWORKING ON THE ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE OF CARITAS UNIVERSITY STUDENT.

Abstract The internet plays a fundamental role in organizations and societies. The basic fact justifies the information revolution that has been taking place across the globe in recent times. The term internet, according to Cawkell in Ogedegbe (2006, p.152) is a large computer network formed out of some thousands of interconnected networks, and it supports a whole range of services such as electronic, file transfer protocol, data base access and many others. It is therefore not surprising the...

Design and implementation of a fingerprint lock system

ABSTRACT:-  The use of fingerprint for identification has been employed in law enforcement for about a century. A fingerprint locker system using microcontroller uses fingerprint recognition system as a process of verifying the fingerprint image to open the electronic lock. This research highlights the development of fingerprint verification system using Arduino 1.6.3. Verification is completed by comparing the data of authorized fingerprint image with incoming fingerprint image. The incomin...

A Risk Analysis Model for Fire Disasters in Commercial Complexes in Nigeria.

ABSTRACT The frequent occurrence of fire accidents in commercial complexes has become a serious problem in Nigeria. The development of a quantitative tool for evaluating the proneness of a commercial complex to so called 'market fires' is the focus of this study. A rigorous review of the literature was carried to identify and characterize some existing risk analysis models applicable to the problem. Some past fire disasters were analyzed. Using the insight gained from the above, a mathematica...

Simulation Of Real Time Analog Clock Using Brescenham Michener's Algorithm

ABSTRACT The project takes care of the algorithmic technique and computer programming in the simulation of real time analogue clock using Brescenham and Michener' s Algorithm. A simple graphic package (SGP) which are routines and identifiers compiled into a set of Turbo Pascal �� namely U-sgp-declare and U-sgp-2d were used in compiling the program. The Brescenhan and Michemer' s Algorithm which is the main stay draws the circle and also was used to calibrate the face of the circle as cloc...

Deduction Of New Correlation And Computational Programme To Estimate Bubble And Dew Points Pressures Using The Equation Of State

ABSTRACT In this thesis new correlation of bubble point pressure (Pb) has been created using software called VariReg depending on the theory of Artificial Neural Networks (ANN). A computer program has been designed using MATLAB® software to simplify the calculation of the bubble and dew points pressures depending on the theory of the equation of state (EOS), the program includes some of others known empirical correlations of bubble point and dew point pressures, and a comparison study betwe...

The place of ecology in academic performance as perceived by students in Nandi, Kenya.

Abstract/Overview This study determined the ecological factors, as perceived by students of high and low achieving schools that contribute to the academic achievement in Nandi Central district. We employed causal comparative research design to identity the cause–effect relationship between school ecology of high and low performing secondary schools. Random sampling technique was employed to select the study participants. There were 424 participants. T-test, a parametric statistical tool...

COMPUTER AIDED TUTORIALS IN ADDITION TO CONVENTIONAL TUTORIALS TO IMPROVE LEARNING IN HYPERTEXT MARK UP LANGUAGE

INTRODUCTION Computer aided teaching series is becoming an efficient and reliable means of teaching and learning. The development and continual dominance of high level procedural language enables the development and distribution of standard tutorial software or with the help of sophisticated programs the computer can serve as a tutor or a teacher on any subject. Like with human being, the computer can be used to teach you what you don’t know and make it understandable to you.  A computer a...

EVALUATION OF RADIOGRAPHERS KNOWLEDGE AND MANAGEMENT OF UNCONSCIOUS PATIENTS IN ENUGU METROPOLIS

ABSTRACT The study was undertaken to assess radiographers’ knowledge of management of unconscious patients and their response to unconscious patients in teaching hospitals as well as National Orthopeadic hospital Enugu. A population size of forty radiographers was studied. The sampling techniques used was convenience sampling. That was collected using self administered structured questionnaires. Data collected showed that 42.5% of the radiographers in the studied areas showed competence in ...
