A Designed System for Providing Solutions to Basic Engineering Problems

Engineering and the manner in which engineers think is largely visual and functional, and yet engineers are typically provided with a lot of other basic engineering problems to be solved and applied to complex ones. This paper present a designed software for providing solutions to some basic engineering problems. C++ programming language was used in writing the codes. The paper explains the activities involved in C++program development and touched areas such as the general concept of programming, programming languages, compilation and interpretation, storage and execution, functional lines to which computer programs maybe categorized. Several engineering problems and their various real-world applications were considered to accomplish the aim of the work. The problem requirements were properly understood, and the program adequately developed using the Dev-C++ software. The program was coded in a modular fashion, and constructed in a manner that can be fairly understood. Algorithms and flow charts for the basic engineering problems considered were obtained and using formula translation, solutions to such issues were dynamically programmed using the Dev C++ software. The results from the developed software when compared with other methods such as numerical and approximate analytical solutions were observed to be the same. The developed software is however, more user friendly and can be implemented at A Level Higher Institutions, as well as have many other real-world applications.

Elaboration d’un SVA d’aide à l’éducation sous forme d’application mobile sur un réseau d’opérateur de télécommunications: recherche d'assistants pédagogiques à domicile

La présente recherche a pour objectif de proposer un Service à Valeur Ajouté (SVA) axé sur l’élaboration d’une plateforme collaborative en ligne entre les assistants pédagogiques et les apprenants. Il sera question dans cet article de répondre aux questions de recherche. Comment les technologies peuvent-ils contribuer à reconfigurer l’environnement de formation pris en otage par les diverses crises sociopolitiques ? Comment l’usage des technologies peut-il contribuer à favoriser l’émergence des nouveaux métiers comme le conseiller ou l’assistant pédagogique à domicile? En vue de répondre aux deux questions de recherche, nous avons par une démarche méthodologie rigoureuse, analysé et conçu l’application en passant par une étude détaillée des fonctionnalités à offrir, la modélisation du système et le choix de l’architecture du système. Par la suite, nous avons étudié le déploiement d’un SVA dans un réseau de télécommunications plus particulièrement celui de Viettel Cameroun. Un ensemble d’applications "NextSchool" et "NextScool Admin" testées par des utilisateurs sur le réseau d’opérateur Viettel Cameroun S.A ont vu le jour

Stakeholder-driven transformative adaptation is needed for climate-smart nutrition security in sub-Saharan Africa.

Improving nutrition security in sub-Saharan Africa under increasing climate risks and population growth requires a strong and contextualized evidence base. Yet, to date, few studies have assessed climate-smart agriculture and nutrition security simultaneously. Here we use an integrated assessment framework (iFEED) to explore stakeholder-driven scenarios of food system transformation towards climate-smart nutrition security in Malawi, South Africa, Tanzania and Zambia. iFEED translates climate-food-emissions modelling into policy-relevant information using model output implication statements. Results show that diversifying agricultural production towards more micronutrient-rich foods is necessary to achieve an adequate population-level nutrient supply by mid-century. Agricultural areas must expand unless unprecedented rapid yield improvements are achieved. While these transformations are challenging to accomplish and often associated with increased greenhouse gas emissions, the alternative for a nutrition-secure future is to rely increasingly on imports, which would outsource emissions and be economically and politically challenging given the large import increases required.

Workshop report : Community Fibre Building Training Workshop for West Africa

Attending the regional fibre optic workshop were 14 participants from Rwanda, Congo-Brazzaville, Guinea-Conakry, Benin, Togo, Côte d’Ivoire, Burkina Faso, Senegal and Cameroon. Building a cable network in Central Africa is an important development ingredient in the sub-region. Participants were instructed in various stages of implementation of fibre optic networks, communication infrastructure, regulation of networks, as well as identification of different types of cables used in campus, urban and intercontinental networks

TIC et éducation en Afrique : application, recherche et perspectives

Cet ouvrage rassemble des témoignages très représentatifs des formes et des conditions d'usage des technologies de l'information et de la communication dans le domaine de l'éducation en Afrique au sein des dispositifs technologiques de formation. Quelle place pour les TICE dans les universités africaines et quel rôle des normes et des standards technologiques de l'e-learning ?This book gathers very representative testimonies of forms and conditions of ICT uses in digital education systems in Africa. What role for ICT in African universities and what role e-learning and technological standards do play? These are core questions that authors of this book dealt with
