Dissolved Air Flotation process for algae removal in surface water treatment in Kenya International Civil Engineering Conference on Sustainable Development in the 21st Century
(2003)This study set out to examine the policy position in Kenyan health care financing, with regard to implementation of the proposed social health scheme (NSHIF) and its performance potential. The specific objectives were to: ... -
Distress Features Of Flexible Road Pavement In Kenya
(1982)The direct use of pavement design methods, generally originating from Europe, in tropical countries such as Africa has in several cases led to premature pavement failure so causing unplanned expenditure in the repair of ... -
Distributed Generation of Green Electricity for Sustainable Rural Electrification in Kenya.

Distributed Slack Bus Model for a Wind-Based Distribution Generation using Combined Participation Factors
(2012)With the increased penetration of distributed generation into the power distribution system, the traditional load flow analysis that assumes a single slack bus has become impractical. The existing literature focuses on ... -
Distributed transmit-power control in cognitive radio networks using a hybrid-adaptive game-theoretic technique
(2015)This paper studies game-theoretic distributed transmit-power control in a cognitive radio network. It presents a hybrid-adaptive algorithm that interfaces Iterative Water-Filling with two learning algorithms: the Hedging ... -

Do Small Firms in Developing Countries Ever Transform? Evidence front Small Manufacturers in Kenya
(2010), Data from small Kenyan manufacturers unequivocally confirms that these firms not only trans¬form, but often enjoy deep transformation. A strong, positive firm-age effect on transformation suggests an underlying life cycle ... -
Drivers for change in the built environment and their implications in construction management curricula at African universities
(2009)The paper explains the context of built environment in relation to construction management and identifies the drivers of change as globalization, technology and competition. Specific drivers for change in the built ... -
Dryland Farming Technologies
(2004)Arid and semiarid regions comprise almost 40% of the world’s land area and are inhabited by some 700 million people. Approximately 60% of these drylands are in developing countries. Low rainfall areas constitute from 75–100% ... -
