Online Laboratory Sessions in System Design with DSPs using the R-DSP Lab
(2014)
The education of students in the design of DSP (Digital Signal Processor) based systems is achieved through courses including lectures and laboratory sessions. Traditionally, the laboratory sessions take place in the ...
Problems of the Time Deterministic in Applications for Process Control from the Cloud
(2014)
This paper is devoted to the problem of data transfer rates between automation devices and cloud services. The possibilities of the device connection to the automation systems are described, their time characteristic are ...
1-Tetralinyl as carboxamine-protecting group for asparagine and application to N-a-t-Butyloxycarbonyl (Boc) solid-phase pentide synthesis of oxytocin
(university of Nairobi, 2014)
Oxytocin, a nonapeptide amide, was synthesized on a benzhydryl-resin using the Boc strategy. Benzyl group was
used in the protection of sulfhydryl group of cysteine and tyrosine side-chain. Benzhydryl and tetralinyl ...
Building a CPS as an Educational Challenge
(2014)
Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) are highly multidisciplinary systems that involve disciplines such as embedded computing, control theory and communication technology. Even though building this kind of systems is a challenging ...
8-Hydroxy-6-methylxanthone-1-carboxylic acid and 6',8-O-dimethylknipholone from the roots of Bulbine frutescens
(University of Nairobi, 2014)
Phytochemical investigation of the dichloromethane/methanol (1:1) extract of the roots of Bulbine frutescens led to the isolation of a new xanthone, 8-hydroxy-6-methylxanthone-1-carboxylic acid (1) and a new phenylanthraquinone, ...

An investigation of the transport and dispersion of atmospheric pollutants over Nairobi City
(University of Nairobi, 2014)
Current rapid deterioration of air quality in most urban can be majorly attributed to ongoing urbanization.
This study simulates air pollutant dispersal over Nairobi city using Hybrid Single Particle Lagrangian ...
Effect of temperature on the phenology of Chilo partellus (Swinhoe) (Lepidoptera, Crambidae); simulation and visualization of the potential future distribution of C. partellus in Africa under warmer temperatures through the development of life-table parameters.
(University of Nairobi, 2014)
Maize (Zea mays) is a major staple food in Africa. However, maize production is severely reduced by damage caused by feeding lepidopteran pests. In East and Southern Africa, Chilo partellus is one of the most damaging ...
Tracking the mutual shaping of the technical and social dimensions of solar-powered mosquito trapping systems (SMoTS) for malaria control on Rusinga Island, western Kenya
(University of Nairobi, 2014)
Background
There has been increasing effort in recent years to incorporate user needs in technology design and re-design. This project employed a bottom-up approach that engaged end users from the outset. Bottom-up ...
