Quality of supply data mining
(IEEE, 2014)
Extracting useful network management information from a large volume of QoS data obtained all over a network can be simplified by innovative data mining techniques. The need for QoS expertise is reduced as interactive ...
Finding synergy between international leadership development initiatives: perspectives from the nutrition leadership programmes
(Karger, 2017)
There is growing recognition that to address today’s nutritional
problems there is a need for effective leaders in nutrition across
sectors (academic, corporate, governmental and non-governmental), and at ...
Fourier-type monitoring procedures for strict stationarity
(Springer, 2018)
We consider model-free monitoring procedures for strict stationarity of a given time series. The new criteria are formulated as L2-type statistics incorporating the empirical characteristic function. Monte Carlo results ...
Strengthening capacity for evidence-informed decision-making in Africa: evident lessons and opportunities
(Karger, 2017)
Background and objectives:
Unacceptably high rates of
malnutrition in Africa persists, despite considerable knowledge
and technology to address its determinants. A missing link is the
access to and ...
Evaluation and prediction of slow pyrolysis products derived from coals of different rank
(Elsevier, 2017)
When coal is heated slowly (<10 °C/min), as in the Lurgi Fixed Bed Dry Bottom (FBDB) gasification process, products formed in the pyrolysis region of the gasifier include gas liquor, condensable tar, oil and non-condensable ...
Association between dietary habits, body composition indices and HbA1c of adult type-2 diabetes patients attending routine out-patient clinic review: a cross-sectional study
(Karger, 2017)
Background and objectives:
Low intake of fruits, vegetables,
excessive energy intake and reduced physical activities has been
associated with type-2 diabetes (T2DM) and it associated co-morbidities. Unhealthy ...
Nutrition-related concerns of the primary caregiver regarding children with spastic cerebral palsy: a cross-sectional, quantitative research study
(Karger, 2017)
Background and objectives:
Parents with children suffering
from spastic cerebral palsy (CP) face various challenges regarding

quality of ...
Financial analysis of waste-to-energy grate incineration power plant for a small city
(IEEE, 2015)
Grate incineration is a widely used waste-to-energy (WtE) technology, which has the potential of contributing significantly to clean energy production and sustainable waste management systems. Various research studies have ...
Overload Control Centre Bypass Detection System
(IEEE, 2014)
Road transport is a significant economic necessity for freight movement in developing countries. The freight industry has a low profit margin resulting in overloading. As overloaded vehicles cause significant damage to ...
Alcohol and the oculomotor neural circuit: system identification, a delay-based approach
(IEEE, 2015)
A fair amount of research has been done on the
modeling of the oculomotor system. Models of the oculomotor
neural circuitry that include the effect of alcohol are less plentiful
in literature. We investigated the ...
