The University Teaching Hospital is an integral national referral Hospital made up of eight departments. Systems interoperability is key for successful flow of patient information from one department to another and from section to section within a department. In this study, the Systemized...

Institutions of higher learning retain sensitive data making them highly attractive targets for cybercrime . However, most developing countries and public higher institutions of learning have low levels of Information and C communication Technology (ICT) and hence face challenges in securing...

An extended quasi-metric q on a nonempty set X without any assumed structure is a distance functional that satis es the usual properties of a quasi-metric except that it can assume values of in nity, in addition to non-negative real values. Given a quasi-metrizable space X we exhibit a universal...

The introduction of Oreochromis niloticus on Lake Kariba has been widely associated with the decline in preponderance of indigenous Tilapiines, especially Oreochromis mortimeri. Comperative aspects of abundances, growth and reproductive biology for O. niloticus, and three known indigeous...

This study investigated groundwater contamination in a suburban area of George Compound located on the outskirts of the city of Lusaka in Zambia. The aim was to assess heavy metal contamination of groundwater and the local people’s awareness about the contamination in the study area. The...
