(Makerere University, 2021)Globally, information systems have become ubiquitous and shown a potential to transform and benefit antenatal care delivery to expectant mothers in Uganda. The benefits associated with this include accessibility to information ... -
Modeling connectivity for vehicular adhoc networks under high traffic density with interference
(Makerere University, 2020-12)Previous studies of connectivity in Vehicular Ad hoc Networks (VANETs) were done with slight traffic interference in low traffic road scenarios. These studies were done under the assumption that the interference were ... -
Modeling scheduling of customers in a bank queue using residual time based Preemptive Priority Queuing
(Makerere University, 2016-09-01)In a bank, tellers are usually reserved for different kinds of customers, that is standard customers who carry out the normal deposits/withdraws and corporate customers such as western union and corporate customers. Standard ... -
Modelling the Minimum Latency Aggregation Scheduling (MLAS) problem under traffic heterogeneity in clustered Wwireless sensor Networks.
(Makerere University, 2021-03-14)Data aggregation in WSNs, correlates and aggregates redundant or duplicate readings from sensors nodes before transmission to a designated destination. However, this inher- ently induces latency from transmission collisions ... -
A novel model to strengthen researcher-farming community engagement
(Makerere University, 2022-04-01)Researcher engagement is said to improve collaboration between two parties, hence, improving research outputs. Despite the enormous agricultural research studies, there has been low uptake and ownership of research outputs ... -
