This study investigated the vulnerabilities of three operating systems: Windows 10, macOS, and Ubuntu. The analysis of secondary data obtained from the CVE and NVD databases for the study period demonstrates varying OS vulnerability. Quantitative assessment of the vulnerability (using the vulnerability score) for the investigated operating systems found consistent results in the security vulnerability…

Blockchain is a solution to improve data integrity and minimize data manipulation. Blockchain technology can be used in student examination management in universities. The process of managing student examination produces some information that can be stored in a blockchain database such as information about the lecturer as the exam creator, exam proctor, student attendance, student…

From amateur players who enjoy sports throughout their lives to top athletes who participate in international competitions, interest in improving sports skills is growing. Coaches and their coaching are indispensable for improving sports skills, but it is difficult for many athletes, especially amateur athletes, to secure coaching. However, we thought that anyone could easily receive…

Recent years have seen a continued pattern of development in the cloud computing field. Numerous approaches to maximize file transfer capacity are still completely standing for use on cloud computing storage; however, they do not maximize the advantage of data migration scalability and elasticity in cloud storage. One potential problem is that elasticity takes time;…

We present an inverted pendulum design using readily available V-slot rail components and 3D printing to construct custom parts. To enable the examination of different pendulum characteristics, we constructed three pendulum poles of different lengths. We implemented a brake mechanism to modify sliding friction resistance and built a paddle that can be attached to the…

WhatsApp application is considered the largest messaging application around the world and an important source of information, they just incorporated a new technique that operates on end-to-end encryption, which presents a significant problem for forensic investigators and analysts. This study describes how to recover the encryption key from WhatsApp to decrypt WhatsApp databases and retrieve…

The context for the study was a naturally occurring quasi-experiment in the core mathematics program in a large Australian university. Delivery of teaching was changed in a sequence of two initial core mathematics subjects taken by engineering and science students. The change replaced one of two face-to-face tutorial classes per week by an online tutorial.…

The research investigated the consequence of self-regulated learning on students’ academic performance in physics, using selected public co-education schools in Aguata Educational Zone, Anambra State as the research area. The study became necessary as a result of the observed persistent poor performance of the student in Physics in external examinations over the years. The study…

The emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic earlier this year destabilised the operations in the education sector, particularly in institutions of higher learning. Most of these institutions are now expected to teach online, assess their students using non-venue examinations and offer remote laboratory practical and experiments. However, many of these institutions were not prepared for such…

The undulated power supply has dropped to its worst reliability index in most parts of the city despite the installations of distribution transformers to improve the power. In this work, examination of Port Harcourt Town Zone 4 (Z4), Rivers State power distribution system forcing on its operation, planning for future expansion of the system, and…

This examination plans to investigate the task issue in the educational program designer group utilizing the Ones Assignment Method. The calculation of this technique as follows. At first characterized the task grid, at that point by utilizing determinant portrayal acquired a diminished framework which has in any event one in each line and segments. At…

Breast cancer has an important incidence in women mortality worldwide. Currently, mam- mography is considered the gold standard for breast abnormalities screening examinations, since it aids in the early detection and diagnosis of the illness. However, both identification of mass lesions and its malignancy classification is a challenging problem for artificial intelligence. In this work,…

We examine design principles from more than 20 years of experience in the implementation and protection of mission critical flight systems used by the Mission Design and Navigation Section at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory. Spacecraft navigation has rigorous requirements for completeness and accuracy, often under critical and uncompromising time pressure. Fault tolerant and robust design…

Mental health disorder is becoming a social problem, and there is a need for technology that can easily check for states of stress and depression as a countermeasure. Conventional methods of diagnostic support and screening include self-administered psychological tests and use of biomarkers. However, there are problems such as burden on subjects, examination costs, dedicated…

This paper proposed an Optical Markup Recognition (OMR) system to be used to detect shaded options of students after MCQ-type examinations. The designed system employed the pixel-based unsupervised classification approach with image pre-processing strategies and compared its efficiencies, in terms of speed and accuracy, with object-based supervised or unsupervised classification OMR systems. Speed and accuracy…

The increasing impact of services on economic wealth and income in high wage countries calls for a detailed examination of service productivity and complexity in current research projects. This paper describes the development of a measurement model of service productivity and complexity within the domain of medical service provision. While the measurement model of service…

Pure Aluminium and its alloy are widely utilized in Engineering and Industrial applications due to certain significant properties such as softness, ductility, corrosion resistance, and high electrical conductivity which it possesses. Addition of an agro-waste based grain refiner to the melt can alter the characteristics positively or negatively. Therefore, the aim of this paper is…
