SUMMARY A parasitological, clinical, periodicity and entomological study of lymphatic filariasis was earned out at Gomoa Okyereko, an irrigation project community in Southern Ghana to provide baseline information on the infection and its transmission in the community. Out of a total of 636 inhabitants, fifty percent of the residents were selected from the compiled demographic data using computer generated random numbers to constitute the study population. Quantitative examination of night blo...
ABSTRACT The dynamic simulation is one of the key steps in the validation of the design process of the motor drive systems and it is needed for eliminating inadvertent design mistakes and the resulting error in the prototype construction and testing. A quality mathematical model of induction machine based on the dynamic equations and D-Q transformation technique is presented in rotor reference frame and a computer simulation of a 7.5kW three phase induction motor was carried out based�...
ABSTRACT This study developed computer software with the capacity to provide a generalized solution to queuing problems involving laborious, time consuming and complex mathematical approach of evaluating the performance measures of queuing systems when it was applied in the analysis of the six (6) fundamental performance measures of thirty (30) different organizations representing the six (6) queuing systems; the result was compared with that of mathematical computations and 97.22% complianc...
Commercial banks play a crucial role in the agricultural sector in advancing affordable credit to improve their productivity, enhancing their food security, and expanding their income. Financing of the sector however continues to get the lowest levels of credit in Kenya compared to other sectors due to poor loan repayment. The objectives of the study were to establish the effect of Gross Domestic Product, determine the effect of real effective exchange rate; determine the effect of lendi...

ABSTRACT Fresh groundwater resource located in the shallow semi-confined aquifer system of the White Volta River Basin of Ghana contributes significantly to the livelihood of the communities in the basin. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the spatial variations in the hydraulic parameters of the shallow aquifer system of the White Volta River Basin of Ghana, develop a 3 - dimensional groundwater flow model for the basin and assess various scenarios of groundwater development and c...
ABSTRACT Groundwater remains the single most important source of water in Talensi district for various purposes. Notwithstanding, little research on the quality and sustainability of the resource in the district exist. Hence a comprehensive quality assessment and a quantification of groundwater resources in the shallow unconfined aquifers of the Talensi district has been conducted using conventional graphical methods, mass balance and multivariate statistical techniques coupled with steady s...
ABSTRACT Digitized high resolution total field aeromagnetic data over Okigwe and environ (Sheet 312) was interpreted using the standard 3-D Euler de-convolution and spectral analysis in order to determine depth to the magnetic basement, delineate the basement topography and relief, and delineate the trend of the structural features associated with the basin. The aeromagnetic data were subjected to various data enhancement and transformation routines using the Geosoft Oasis MontajTM software...
Abstract: Characterization and classification of soil is the main source of information for precision agriculture, land use planning and management. For an efficient use of the limited land resources, site specific management recommendations based on site specific information are much required. Undulating topography, altitudinal differences and large variations in slope were characteristic features of the present study area (Dhengego subwatershed). The purpose of the present study was to cha...

The populations of this study consisted of hundred secretaries in some sele...
CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background of the Research The task of managing applicants’ records and processing is quite an arduous one, because of the high data turnover, strenuous processing operations and requirements for speed and accuracy in matching a potential applicant to the right job. The increasing complexity and highly dynamic nature of applicants’ records management processes has made it necessary to embrace the use of Computer and Information Technology (CIT) to ...
ABSTRACT Computers have been in existence for some time. Personal computers have emerged in the early eighties and changed substantially the way corporations perform their functions. Large quantity of application software, tools making the computer more useful, have been developed over the years. Different classes that describe application software, such as "Spreadsheets", "Word Processors" and "Data Bases", are now as much a part of our vocabulary as "fax" and "cellular phone" machines. A...
