Through experimental studies, it was found that the amount of energy consumed in each compartment was related to the time of usage and the number of occupants. The study revealed that the living room, kitchen, and security light were the main energy-consuming compartments, accounting for 30.4%, 28.1%, and 15.52% respectively. Interestingly, each bedroom and the toilets accounted for only 5.2% and 3.9% of the energy consumption, respectively. This study highlighted that prolonged usage of energy in these three compartments was the main reason for the high energy consumption rate in households. Furthermore, it was discovered that the energy consumed by households varied depending on the number of hours of usage and the number of occupants. For instance, the living room, kitchen, and security light were used for more hours than the other compartments, thus consuming more energy. The findings of this study could inform the design and development of mini wind turbines in low wind energy areas to promote renewable energy usage and reduce dependence on non-renewable sources of energy.

Manufacturing businesses are putting a lot of effort into managing their goods and services to reach a high level of client satisfaction. This is accomplished with the highest quality while maintaining a competitive cost tag. To accomplish this, the collaborative manufacturing technique (CMT) is used. It entails information exchange and dialogue amongst business processes concerning internal or external stakeholders in the hierarchy of value. An active CMT model that incorporates these present collaboration networks should provide operational value savings and significantly increase competitiveness. Therefore, the recent evaluation that provided a detailed view of such inclusion is no longer in existence. To promote collaboration techniques in the successful development o...

The condition for orthogonality, frequency spacing between consecutive subcarriers (called frequency spacing) was established analytically with practical instance highlighted. The review also covers Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) which serves as a bank of demodulators while Inverse Fast Fourier Transform (IFFT) serves as a bank of modulators in an OFDM system, advancement in OFDM, Quadrature modulation types (Binary Phase Shift Keying, 4-Quadrature Amplitude Modulation, 8-Quadrature Amplitude Modulation, 16-Quadrature Amplitude Modulation, and 64-Quadrature Amplitude Modulation QAM) and spectrum efficiency was also covered. Several technologies that use OFDM were mentioned but attention was given to its usage in Wireless LAN 802.11a.

Typically, the teacher calls names and writes them down. This approach has a number of drawbacks because when recording their attendance, students are diverted from the presentation and may register for absent classmates. The smart attendance solution suggested in this study allows students to tap their student identity (ID) card on a near field communication (NFC) reader, streamlining the attendance procedure by using near field communication (NFC) technology. The technique is affordable, effective, and simple to keep up. Automating student attendance saves time and alleviates anxiety. The average time for the NFC system to take a student's attendance is 3.5 seconds, compared to 16 seconds for the conventional method. The inaccuracy associated with recording attendance is reduced by 31% thanks to NFC technology. The numerical results of the NFC-based sc...

Theft, kidnapping, and murder are all on the rise in Nigeria due to the growing issues with property and life insecurity. Additionally, burgling, thefts, rapes, and other crimes involving forced or covert entry into the dorms for students have crept onto the campus as a result of the facility's open access. A fingerprint reader can be used as an efficient authentication access control to limit illegal access to hostel environments considering these threats. This becomes crucial as practically all students attend lectures, while the poor ones or even strangers break into their dorms and steal their belongings, including money, jewels, and expensive devices. In this study, we used a discretionary access control model and a single layer access control component (a fingerprint sensor) to design a digitalized biometric hostel access control system using Bluetooth remote data logging that automatically records hostel attendance. This system will replace the conventional method of manually checking in and out of the hostels.
