Lifetime improved WSN using enhanced-LEACH and angle sector-based energy-aware TDMA scheduling
(Cogent Engineering, 2020-07-20)
Network lifetime remains as a significant requirement in Wireless Sensor
Network (WSN) exploited to prolong network processing. Deployment of low power
sensor nodes in WSN is essential to utilize the energy efficiently. ...
Cluster based wireless sensor network for forests environmental monitoring
(International Journal of Advanced Technology and Engineering Exploration, 2020-02)
Monitoring the forest’s weather has been essential to living things over the years. Currently, there is a shortage of information on real-time temporal and spatial environmental conditions of the forest that drive forest ...

There is a wide collection of invaluable varie-ties of ornamental plants and flowers available for sale by vendors in Arusha city contributing to local employment, and food security. Horticulture in Tanzania is dominated ...
Mathematical Model for Optimal Control of Soil-Transmitted Helminth Infection
(Hindawi, 2020-08-01)
In this paper, we study the dynamics of soil-transmitted helminth infection. We formulate and analyse a deterministic compartmental model using nonlinear differential equations. The basic reproduction number is obtained ...
Identification of the Time-Dependent Point Source in a System of two Coupled Two Dimension Diffusion-Advection-Reaction Equations: Application to Groundwater Pollution Source Identification
(Global Journal of Pure and Applied Mathematics, 2020)
This paper addresses the inverse source problem in a system of two-dimension
advection-dispersion reaction equation with an emphasis on groundwater pollution
source identification. We develop an inverse source problem ...
MHD Arterial Blood Flow and Mass Transfer under the Presence of Stenosis, Body Acceleration and Chemical Reaction: A Case of Magnetic Therapy
(Journal of Mathematics and Informatics, 2020-02-17)
A mathematical model has been developed and used to study pulsatile blood
flow and mass transfer through a stenosed artery in the presence of body acceleration and
magnetic fields. An explicit Finite Difference Method ...
‘Mind the Gap’: Reconnecting Local Actions and Multi-Level Policies to Bridge the Governance Gap. An Example of Soil Erosion Action from East Africa
(MDPI, 2020-09-25)
Achieving change to address soil erosion has been a global yet elusive goal for decades. Efforts to implement effective solutions have often fallen short due to a lack of sustained, context-appropriate and multi-disciplinary ...
Dynamical and optimal control analysis of a seasonal Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense model
(AIMS Press, 2020-02-27)
The e ects of seasonal variations on the epidemiology of Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense
disease is well documented. In particular, seasonal variations alter vector development rates and
behaviour, thereby influencing the ...
Usability Testing of a Web Portal for Ornamental Plants and Flowers in Arusha, Tanzania
(Engineering, Technology & Applied Science Research, 2020-06)
The Information and Communication Technology (ICT) adoption has steadily advanced in the horticulture sector in Tanzania. This study aims to test and give feedback regarding the usability of a developed web portal prototype ...
Identification of multiple unknown point sources occurring in the 2D transport equation: application to groundwater pollution source identification
(Journal of Mathematical and Computational Science, 2020-02-29)
Water loss in the water distribution systems (WDS) is a challenge to many
water authorities in the world but the problem is crucial in the less developed countries.
The effect of water losses in the WDS includes the ...
