Gaining insight into aquatic food webs reconstructed by the inverse method: A factor analysis approach
(School of Biological Sciences, 2006) -
Gaining insight into food webs reconstructed by the inverse method
(University of Nairobi, 2006-04)The use of the inverse method to analyze flow patterns of organic components in ecological systems has had wide application in ecological modeling. Through this approach, an infinite number of food web flows describing the ... -
Game Theoretic Multi-Agent Systems Scheduler for Parallel Machines
(School of Computing and InformaticsSchool of Computing and Informatics, 2008)This paper considers the scheduling of n independent jobs on m non-identical machines using the ideas from game theory and multi-agent systems. The values of n and m are fixed at 30 and 6 respectively giving a schedule ... -
The Gap between Mobile Application Developers and Poor Consumers: Lessons from Kenya
(University of Nairobi, 2013)With a 75% mobile penetration in Kenya, there has been a flurry of efforts to develop mobile applications for the common citizen who now owns a mobile device. However, the uptake of such mobile phone-based applications has ... -
Gas Exchange Of Finger Millet Inflorescences
(University of Nairobi, 1978)The growth and development of finger millet [Eleusine coracana (L.) Gaertn.] inflorescences is described. The respiration rate on a dry weight basis remained uniform until it decreased during the later stages of seed filling ... -

Generalized relativistic dynamics in a non-inertial reference frame
(2010)Generalized relativistic field equations have been derived for dynamics in a non-inertial reference frame interpreted as a Finsler space where events are specified by both spacetime coordinates and corresponding velocities ... -
The genesis and tectonics of the N.E. Nyanza rift valley, Kenya
(1983)This study examines the genesis and tectonics of N.E. Nyanza rift valley in an attempt to understand its cause and origin. The phonolite flow patterns were determined to be aligned in an east to west and northeast to ... -
Genetic Algorithm Based Model in Text Steganography
(University of Nairobi, 2013)Steganography is an ancient art. It is used for security in open systems. It focuses on hiding secret messages inside a cover medium. The most important property of a cover medium is the amount of data that can be stored ... -
Genetic and morphological analyses indicate high population mixing in the endangered cichlid Alcolapia flock of East Africa
(2013)Alcolapia is a minor genus of small-bodied, polymorphic cichlids inhabiting the lagoons and hot springs surrounding the soda lakes Natron (largely in Tanzania) and Magadi (Kenya). Three Alcolapia species are present ... -
Genetic and Toxigenic Variability within Aspergillus flavus Population Isolated from Maize in Two Diverse Environments in Kenya.
(University of Nairobi, 2018)Aspergillus flavus is the main producer of carcinogenic aflatoxins in agricultural commodities such as maize. This fungus occurs naturally on crops, and produces aflatoxins when environmental conditions are favorable. The ... -
Genetic characterisation of plasmodium falciparum isolates with deletion of the PFHRP2 and/or PFHRP3 genes in Colombia: The amazon region, a challenge for Malaria diagnosis and control
(University of Nairobi, 2017)Most Plasmodium falciparum-detecting rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) target histidine-rich protein 2 (PfHRP2). However, P. falciparumisolates with deletion of the pfhrp2 gene and its homolog gene, pfhrp3, have been detected. ... -
Genetic divergence of Chikungunya virus plaque variants from the Comoros Island (2005).
(University of Nairobi, 2015-08)Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) from a human sample collected during the 2005 Chikungunya outbreak in the Comoros Island, showed distinct and reproducible large (L2) and small (S7) plaques which were characterized in this study. ...
