SUMMARY We present a joint analysis of newly acquired gravity and teleseismic data in the North Tanzanian Divergence, where the lithospheric break-up is at its earliest stage. The impact of a mantle upwelling in more mature branches of the East African Rift has been extensively studied at a lithospheric scale. However, few studies have been completed that relate the deep-seated mantle anomaly detected in broad regional seismic tomography with the surface deformation observed in the thick Arc...
BACKGROUND OFF THE STUDY Information is a critical resource in the operation and management of organization.

ABSTRACTThe study looked at the causes of poor performance in computer studies at secondary school in Luuka district. A case study of selected schools in Nawampiti sub county. The specific objectives that guided the study were ; To evaluate the availability of teaching and learning materials affect performance of learners in computer studies in Luuka district, To find out whether the qualification, methodology and attitude of the teacher affect learners performance in comp...
ABSTRACT A study was conducted in Lushoto, District, Tanzania to identify farmers’ perceived agricultural land value determinants to establish determinants for agricultural land valuation across different land use types. Remote sensing and GIS techniques were used to identify dominant agricultural land uses for screening the agricultural land value determinants across the land uses. Household survey, key informant interview, and focus group discussions were used to explore farmers’ criter...
ABSTRACT The purpose of this study was to examine the outcome on the use of digital technologies to teachers and pupils in Junior High Schools in Ahafo Ano South East district and Nhyiaeso sub-metropolitan areas in the Ashanti Region of Ghana and also to integrate Computer Assisted Instruction (CAI) that will facilitate teaching and learning in the classroom. Both quantitative and qualitative research methodology were used. Simple Random sampling technique was used to sample 258 pupils and te...
Abstract A GIS-based multi-criteria land evaluation was performed in Kilombero Valley, Tanzania in order to avail decision-makers and farmers with an evidence-based decision support tool for improved and sustainable rice production in this important region for agricultural investment. The five most important criteria for rice production in the area were identified through literature search and discussion with local agronomists and farmers. The identified criteria were 1) soil properties, 2) ...
With the outbreak of the computer age in almost all areas of our world, computers had become essential tools in the progress of a nation and aided men throughout the course of history and this very moment, they can be found from a house kitchen to the busy streets of the urban world. Since it can process facts faster and more effective than ever, man has derived many functions from these machines and derived uses from those benefits. One benefit computers give is the help they give through t...
The study was carried out to find the efficiency of Banking activities with the application of computer attention was directed on the relationship between the contribution of computer application towards banking activities in economy. The scope of the work was not all that wide, but the study was able to come up with facts that the banking sector improves tremendously with the computer. It is of great importance to both the ministries and the researcher. Since it helps to ...

This research work is aimed at determining the effect of audit in a computer environment. To buttress this point, Nigeria...
ABSTRACT Photogrammetric Refraction is one of the major causes of systematic errors affecting the accuracy of maps compiled from aerial images. It has to be eliminated so as to attain the goal of the best results that the technology of photogrammetric mapping is capable of. Many researchers have devoted substantial efforts to develop a number of analytical formulas to remove the effect of refraction. However, these formulas suffer from certain limitations, such as: (i) inconsistent values fo...
ABSTRACT The dramatic progress of studies in human action recognition has being attributed to challenges inherent with conventional methods such as bag-of-words based description. As a result, researchers in the field of computer vision are still making efforts towards achieving structured interpretation of complex activities between multiple objects. This study proposes Pyramid of Histogram Oriented Gradients (PHOG) computed from Depth Motion Maps in a video stream as a new feature descripto...
ABSTRACT Cancer of the lungs has been one of the main causes of death recently, and still is, Lung cancer, also known as lung carcinoma, is a malignant lung tumor characterized by uncontrolled cell growth in tissues of the lung. This growth can spread beyond the lung by the process of metastasis into nearby tissue or other parts of the body. Most cancers that start in the lung, known as primary lung cancers, are carcinomas. The two main types are small-cell lung carcinoma (SCLC) and non-small...
