In this paper, the solution to the problems in a distributed environment is presented. Thus, inability to upload sizeable files, slow transportation of files, weak security and lack of fault tolerance are the major problems in the existing system. Hence, the utmost need is to build a client-server network that runs on two or more server systems in order to implement scalability, such that when one server is down, the other(s) would still hold up the activities within the network. And to achieve this reliable network environment, LINUX network operating system is recommended among others as a preferred platform for the synchronization of the server systems, such that every user activity like sending of internal memos/mails, publication of academic articles, is replicated;thereby, achieving the proposed result. Hence, Scalable Distributed File Sharing System provides the robustness required to having a reliable intranet.展开更多

Managing learning abilities could be difficult. This Online Course Management System integrates learning techniques which addresses this problem. The aim of this work therefore is to develop an adaptative e-Learning Software to enable the learner answer questions or solve problems based on his/her ability. This work is motivated by the need to address deep concern and awareness toward how learners learn best. This study develops an adaptive e-learning platform where the learner is allowed to answer questions or solve problems based on his/her ability or pace. It also provides an online classroom which will run alongside the traditional classroom. The software will adopt the waterfall model. VB.NET, an Object Oriented Programming Language will be used with AJAX and JAVASCRIPT web development tools. Furthermore, this study recommends new strategies & technologies to improve safety, quality, and overall standard of learning amongst learners in educational institutions.展开更多

This paper was motivated by the lag in technological evolution and traditional learning system in the Educational system in most of the Universities. Hence, a call for a change in the way service is delivered in our tertiary institutions. The work proposed the use of Moodle Learning Management System (LMS) as a tool to improve service delivery in tertiary institution. The methodology used was SSADM while the programming used was PHP, HTML, CSS and Ajax. MySQL was for the database design. The expected result was an e-learning site for Computer Science Imo State University Owerri, a platform that increases the possibility of interaction between students and lecturers.展开更多

Recent researches have indicated that cloud computing will become the mainstream in computing technology and very effective for businesses. All Tertiary Institutions have ICT units, and are generally charged with the responsibilities of deploying ICT infrastructure and services for administration, teaching, research and learning in higher institution at large. The Structured System Analysis and Design Methodology (SSADM) is used in this research and a six-step framework for a cost effective and scalable Private cloud infrastructure using server virtualization is presented as an alternative that can guarantee total and independent control of data flow in the institutions, while ensuring adequate security of vital information.展开更多

The study was motivated by the fact that most industries, financial institutions rely on gathering, processing, analyzing, and providing information in order to meet the needs of customers. It was based on data primarily, collected from both the primary and secondary sources which seek to investigate role of Information and Communications Technology in the banking industry. This piece of work, through direct investigation, interviews and questionnaires used to examine the role of Information and Communication Technology, plays in the banking industries and how it has affected the employment generation in the industries. It was gathered that ICT has positively affected the bank, the employees and the customers. The result also shows the application has improved banking services, maintained high level of proficiency and efficiency, reduced the long time spent on queues and brought about increase in employment opportunities.展开更多

This work was motivated by the reception of the poor signals, increase call drop, failure rate which was a poor QoS Reception. The aim is to survey WCDMA services in Owerri environs and establish that there are degradation and the level of debasement in the network. The methodology involved an Empirical Analysis through Drive Test across Owerri City in Imo State. The work adopted the empirical approach and deduction of some Standard performance metrics like call drop rate, failure rate, call success rate, call completion rate, Handover success rate and handover Failure Rate, compare with expected KPI(key performance indicator) threshold. From the assessment, it was found that only one out Four Networks (“GLO”) met the target Call Drop Rate (CDR), Call Completion Success rate (CCSR), Call Setup Success Rate (CSSR) and Call Blocked Rate (CBR) and the Handover was better in “GLO” and 9 mobile than in the “MTN” and Airtel.展开更多
