INTRODUCTION

Background of the study: Transportation represents one of the most important human activities worldwide. Transportation is defined according to Oni (2009), as the conveyance of goods and people over la...

Abstract

Given energy security and climate change challenges occasioned by increased hydrocarbon consumption, and increased trade between Nigeria and Cameroon, a holistic study of commercial energy (petrol, diesel, kerosene) demand in both countries is undertaken. Our main objective is...

SUMMARY

Thermal management of data centers remains a challenge because of their ever- increasing power densities and decreasing server footprints. Current lack of dynamic control over global provisioning and local distribution of cooling resources often result in wasteful overcooling. T...

ABSTRACT

The use of computer and its accessories in our daily activities, in spite of its usefulness have caused a lot of hazards to humans and the environment. Green computing aimed at reducing energy consumption and carbon emission, prevent wastage, cut cost and protect the environmen...

INTRODUCTION

As the growing population of human race widens the gulf between energy supply and energy demand, the imbalance in energy availability sent researchers into excavating for a way of settling this age long squabble. A lasting solution is vested on alternative use of the renewa...

ABSTRACT

This research aimed at the development of a modified real-time fault-tolerant task allocation scheme (mRFTAS) for wireless sensor networks (WSNs), using active replication backup techniques. In WSNs, the sensor nodes are at risk of failure and malicious attacks (selective forwa...

ABSTRACT

Energy efficiency is one of the most important challenges for Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). This is due to the fact that sensor nodes have limited energy capacity. Therefore, the energy of sensor nodes has to be efficiently managed to provide longer lifetime for the network....

1.1Background to the Study

Buildings contributes a very high energy consumption percentage compared to other economic sectors. Although these percentages vary from country to country, buildings are accounts  for  about  30±45%  of  the  global  ...

ABSTRACT

This study shows how to monitor the movement of cattle using wireless sensor nodes powered by a renewable energy source capable of detecting location, and incorporated in it all the available mobile networks to ensure that information about cattle location gets to the base in r...

ABSTRACT

Energy conservation in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is a key area of research aimed at addressing the challenge of efficient energy utilization. This is due to the fact that the Sensor Nodes (SNs) have limited energy. The limited energy has to be utilized efficiently in orde...

ABSTRACT

Power consumption is a key consideration in every Wireless Local Area Network Medium Access Control (WLAN MAC) algorithm design for wireless devices and extending battery life requires more efficient power management scheme considering that carrier sensing by WLAN modules, fals...

ABSTRACT

The study examines the impact of energy consumption on economic growth and environmental quality and also verifies the existence of the Environmental Kuznets Curve(EKC)hypothesis in Nigeria. The traditional production theory and Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) theory were use...
