The rise in the tide of information technology has led to an increase in the large amount of personal information that could be collected from an individual, thus breaching personal privacy. Protecting the individual personal information is paramount as it bothers on the dignity of the consumer and his right to solitude. While the Constitution of Nigeria provides for the protection of dignity of the Nigerian in section 37 and section 34 for protection of privacy sectoral laws are also in...
Counterfeiting is the concern of everyone – the consumers and the manufacturers alike. Drugs counterfeiting has been on the increased, the market is not sought for and the income is on the high side but to the detriment of both the consumers, suppliers and manufacturers. Technology can be of utmost importance in this area via the development of an interacting and authenticating system with a database that will authenticate drugs. The drug interacting authenticating systems will confirm the ...
ABSTRACT The study “Big Data Analytics: Nigerian Health Sector Approach was aimed to examine the health sector if they are using big data analystics in day-to-day activities. The objective of this study was to know whether big data analytics in Nigerian health sector is been implemented or available. The continuous advances in today’s digital universe and integration of computing into virtually every facet of human life are no doubt making the concept of Big Data a ubiquitous paradig...
The role of information and communication technology (ICT) in this present dispensation cannot be over emphasised as the world is viewed as a global village and people as virtual villagers. Cybercrime is a threat to individuals, a nation’s security and financial health as well. The economic loss caused by cybercrimes like phishing, social media identity theft, insider threat, cyber terrorism and the cost of system repairs caused by cyber-attacks runs into billions of naira every year. The r...
MODULE: COUNTING AND CONVERTING IN EXCEL The functions for counting in Excel are mainly: COUNT COUNTA COUNT BLANK COUNTIF COUNTIFS For the basics, we will consider using the COUNT, COUNTA, and COUNT BLANK functions. The COUNT function counts the number of cells in a range that contain numbers. If there are other characters apart from numbers, this function simply ignores them. COUNTA counts non-empty cells in a range. COUNT BLANK counts empty cells in a range.
Abstract - The purpose of the study is to examine the determinants of information security awareness (ISA) among employees of Capital Market Registrars (CMRs) in Lagos, Nigeria based on established factors from the existing literatures on ISA. The main objectives of the study are; to determine the level of information security awareness among CMRs’ employees and to identify the components that influence information security awareness. This study utilised a survey design. Stratified random s...
By applying the interdisciplinary approach of Science, Technology & Society, students can solve often-neglected research problems of shifting society’s operation towards a sustainable state. A recent Penn State University student research report entitled “The Mueller Report: Moving from Sustainability Indicators to Sustainability Action”, contained a detailed ecological analysis of one campus building and addressed methods to optimize its ecological performance in terms of sustainabilit...
Appropriate technologies, those able to be easily and economically constructed from readily available materials by local craftspeople, have a central role in the alleviation of poverty in the developing world. Research and development of these technologies are, however, generally apportioned relatively modest support by the developed world’s institutions in part because the operation of many of these appropriate technologies is dependent on relatively well-understood science accessible even...

The project described here—a collaborative venture between Modern Languages and Physics—provided an opportunity for students to increase their language proficiency while learning about concepts related to the environment. The Standards for Foreign Language Learning, and in particular the “Connections” goal, call for foreign language educators to integrate language instruction into other disciplines, while the “Communities” goal advocates using the language beyond the classroom. In...
Numerous studies have demonstrated that university students are capable of contributing to sustainable development while improving their academic skills. Unfortunately for many institutions, the expense of sending large cohorts of students on international service learning trips is prohibitive. Yet, students remain enthusiastic and well equipped to assist in sustainable development. This article reports on two pedagogical experiments in service learning that overcame this challenge by providi...
Several proprietary industrial symbiosis software tools have been developed, however, without long term financial commitments these endeavors fall short of creating generalizable and sustainable tools. The recent development of virtual globes such as Google Earth (GE), an information service that provides imagery and three dimensional data depicting the entire physical earth, provides an opportunity to use a new sustainable method of navigating information to save energy and use materials mor...
Open source appropriate technology (OSAT) refers to technologies that provide for sustainable development while being designed in the same fashion as free and open-source software. Facilitated by advances in information technology software and hardware, new ways to disseminate information such as wikis and Internet-enabled mobile phones, the global development of OSAT has emerged as a reality. This paper shows the sharing of design processes, appropriate tools, and technical information is en...
Despite enormous efforts over the course of several decades, sustainable development on the African continent remains incompletely realized. Top-down methodologies have largely failed and many sustainable development organizations now support small-scale direct approaches, which provide the tools and knowledge necessary for people to help themselves. The new approach to sustainable development of open source appropriate technology (OSAT) builds on these successes. OSAT is a development method...
