Socio-Economic Impacts Of Computer Viruses In Tanzania, M Victor Jun 2006

Socio-Economic Impacts Of Computer Viruses In Tanzania, M Victor

Tanzania Journal of Engineering and Technology (TJET)

This paper reports on a research project conducted with an objective of identifying and assessing various approaches used by different computer users (Management, System Administrators and end users) in Tanzania to combat computer viruses (CVs), and to assess users' awareness level on CVs. Specifically, the study aimed at assessing the awareness level on CVs to the Tanzanian business community; analyze the socio -economic impact caused by CVs in Tanzania and; assess existing methods, capacity and limitations on controlling CVs in Tanzania. Data was collected using both questionnaires and interview from financial institutions such as NBC and BOT, and telecommunications sector …


Indium Growth On Si(100)-2 X 1 By Femtosecond Pulsed Laser Deposition, M. A. Hafez, M. S. Hegazy, H. E. Elsayed-Ali Jan 2005

Indium Growth On Si(100)-2 X 1 By Femtosecond Pulsed Laser Deposition, M. A. Hafez, M. S. Hegazy, H. E. Elsayed-Ali

Electrical & Computer Engineering Faculty Publications

Indium was grown on Si (100) -2×1 at room temperature by femtosecond pulsed laser deposition. Reflection high-energy electron diffraction (RHEED) was performed in situ to study film morphology and in-plane lattice spacing. Indium was found to grow on Si (100) -2×1 by the Stranski-Krastanov mode. The initial two-dimensional In layer formed in the In-2×1 structure with a lattice constant of 3.65 Å. The full-width at half-maximum (FWHM) of the specular peak decreased during the growth, indicating an increase of the In islands size. Further In growth on the initial In-2×1 layer showed the formation of hexagonal, elongated, and hemispherical islands …

Application Of Vibrational Techniques In Determination Of Dynamic Properties Of Agricultural Products-State Of The Arton Of Vibrational Techniques In Determination Of Dynamic Properties Of Agricultural Products-State Of The Art, Silas Kajuna Dec 1999

Application Of Vibrational Techniques In Determination Of Dynamic Properties Of Agricultural Products-State Of The Arton Of Vibrational Techniques In Determination Of Dynamic Properties Of Agricultural Products-State Of The Art, Silas Kajuna

Tanzania Journal of Engineering and Technology (TJET)

Vibration is one of the techniques employed in the determination of dynamic properties of fruits and vegetables. It entails generation of a mechanical or acoustic vibrational signal which is propagated through the flesh of the agricultural material. A transducer is either attached or held close to the specimen to monitor the propagation of the signal through the specimen. The manner in which the signal is transmitted through the material is analyzed, and the dynamic properties of the specimen which relate to its firmness or its internal being are derived. The technique has been around for the past 30 years or …
