ABSTRACT Course Registration and Result processing system form the key activities in the life span of a student. The demand for effective and efficient result computation and output lead to the production of the automated result process. The digitalized process provides the capabilities of centralized repository for storage, management and dissemination of result information to those concerned. A study into the manual process reveals the inefficiencies and the rigorous nature of course regist...
ABSTRACT Computers are known for their wide range of uses especially in scientific and mathematical fields. However little or no thought has been given to designing a complete and through intelligence test on a computer system in out immediate environment. Although in advanced countries, where computerized games have been developed, computers have proved that they constitute of ways of indirectly testing intelligence. This system is designed in order to implement intelligence test on a ...
The second biggest killer disease triggered by a single infectious agent and the leading cause of mortality for children living with HIV (CLHIV) is Tuberculosis (TB), rendering it an significant public health concern that needs aggressive preventive steps. In some nations, Isoniazid Preventive Therapy (IPT) has been introduced to shield children from the development of latent TB infection to active disease and also to avoid TB reinfection after exposure to an open case of childhood TB. The im...
ABSTRACT Urban sprawl is the most challenging effect of man’s activities on the environment; man tends to move from region of low socio-economic activities (Rural areas) to region of high and increasing socio-economic activities. Abuja which lies within Latitude 9o251N and 9o201N of the equator and longitude 5o251E and 7o391E of the Greenwich meridian have experience influx of people since 1991 after the movement of the federal capital territory to the region. This increase has not only aff...

ABSTRACT The Mara River is the lifeline of the Trans boundary Mara basin across Kenya and Tanzania. The basin is considered one of the more serene sub-catchments of the Lake Victoria Basin and ultimately the Nile Basin. The basin traverses the famous Maasai Mara and Serengeti National Parks in Kenya and Tanzania respectively. The basin also contains forests, largescale farms, smallholder farms, pastoral grazing lands, as well as hunter gatherers and fishers. There is growing concern however, ...
Abstract: Expansive soils tend to be fairly high in natural fertility and their unique morphology makes them quite interesting. Soils found in Serowe, Central Botswana, commonly exhibit variable degrees of periodic shrinking and swelling which often leave visible cracks and sometimes undulating micro-topography (gilgai) on the landscape. The use of expansive soils is often constrained due to severe management problems often associated with their physico-chemical properties. Therefore, basic ...
ABSTRACT This research project work was undertaken with a purpose of determining and evaluation of the effect of computerizing banking service and its efficiency on the banking services in Nigeria. The effect of computerizing the banking services on the behavioural aspect of management information system are Aggression Avoidance and projection on the other hand, other operational pressures are maintaining the system; personal problems in the book-keeping department, maintaining book-keeping m...
ABSTRACT The study intended to establish the perceptions of community on climate change, identifying the Hadzabe’ food insecurity coping strategies toward climate change and assessing the extent of food availability and stability. The study was conducted in five selected villages in Iramba and Mbulu Districts namely Kipamba, Munguli, Yaedachini, Mongo wa Mono and Domanga. The cross-sectional technique was used to collect data. Purposive and Simple random sampling methods were used to obtain...
ABSTRACT A study was conducted at Meru/Usa forest plantation to determine quality, stocking and yield of Pinus patula and factors influencing them. The Meru/Usa forest plantation compartments were categorized into affected and non – affected by root disease and insect defoliators. Systematic sampling method was used to align transect and plots in the compartment. 198 sample plots of 0.04ha were laid and measurements taken for estimation of stem quality, stocking, basal area and volume. The...
ABSTRACT Environmental pollution caused by the Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) incinerators has raised concerns about the quality of incinerators and the incineration process in Tanzania. Engineers and Scientists in general have appreciated that the installation of functional incinerators will increase the incineration process efficiency. Among the methods to achieve this is the application of mathematical modeling for the incineration process. Literatures have showed that related study in i...
This study investigated undergraduates’ views and attitudes toward the use of computer for examination among the Faculty of Education and Agriculture students in the University of Ilorin. The researcher investigated the view of undergraduates on the use of computer for examination and also their attitudes towards its usage for examination. The researcher also invested whether gender has an influence on undergraduates’ views and attitudes toward computer examination and also, whether Facul...
ABSTRACT Analysis of plane truss structures based on the assumptions that (1) members are connected at joints by frictionless pins and (2) loads are applied at joints only have become a norm not minding the facts that our practical trusses are always constructed by connecting members to gusset plates by welds, rivets, or high-strength bolts and loads may not necessarily be applied only at the nodes, have made such assumptions not to yield quite precise results. By the nature of practica...
Abstract: In a rural part of many developing countries including Ethiopia; it is difficult to use modern incubator due to shortage of electricity and high initial capital as well as operating cost. Therefore, this experiment was conducted at Haramaya University poultry farm, Eastern Ethiopia to develop a solar powered incubator and compare its performance and profitability with the modern electric incubator. Solar powered incubator was developed and its performance was compared with modern e...
With the advent of the Computer Age, it is common knowledge that the worldwide adoption of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) has immensely altered and enhanced human interaction and our way of life for the past three decades. Thus, the world is now a global marketplace as a result of the application of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in business. However, the emergence of Electronic Banking (e-Banking) as a result of the development of the internet has brought wi...
