Abstract:In Nigeria, power is one of the major problems and this deters the reliability and effectiveness of a video surveillance system as the case may be. Also, as criminal organizations tend to destroy every physical storage after an operation, providing a suitable backup to the cloud is a viable solution to serve as a failsafe plan in case of hardware eventualities. This work focuses on the design and construction of a real-time power and data backup surveillance system for security of lives and properties. Constru… Show more
“…On the other hand, cloud computing is the act of accessing and keeping data, programs, and information on a large computing infrastructure that is hosted online instead of having it locally on a physical server within the office or on a personal computer. Cloud computing is popularly referred to as Internet computing [17]. In agriculture, cloud computing concepts have been used at the base level in product dissemination, report writing, seeds, progress reports drafting, project management, etc.…”
Climate change, soil erosion, and degradation among others affect the growth and production of crops. Soil is suffering from intensive farming and unsustainable soil disturbance, leading to severe soil degradation. The Internet of Things (IoT) allows the monitoring of crucial environmental parameters such as soil nutrients, moisture, humidity, and temperature. A pre-understanding of these parameters allows agriculturists to use the optimum quantity of water and fertilizer for different types of soil. Soil fertility can be detected by using NPK sensors. The Internet of Things (IoT) brought a new face to the crop farming approach where conventional methods are automated and/or remotely controlled to improve crop farming. In this paper, a survey on IoT technologies for crop farming including sensors, communication, and network protocols in crop farming activities is considered. Additionally, applications of IoT technologies in soil management and monitoring, growth and yield estimation, and quality control mechanisms are presented.

“…Energy will depend on solar and wind in the future because they are much available as a natural resource. The nature of energy generated will become more reliable to support the high demand for information technology services of the 21 st century in all sectors [5]. Due to the pollution, high cost, and transmission power loss posed by the convectional power sources; future services will require clean energy, making the current energy source a difficult task.…”

Several energy generations options that mitigate fossil fuel burning is currently being considered across the globe by various researchers to reduce atmospheric and environmental pollution, thus reducing the menace of negative climate change. There is a critical need for a technical comparison of an eco-friendly, cost effective, and near zero carbon foot-print for power solutions. Solar, wind and its hybrids can explored to meet the ever-increasing load demand of electrical power consumers especially in information technology (IT) services. Critical IT services and infrastructure are becoming unsustainable with a single power source hence the need for hybrid solutions. To overcome this problem, this research considers the efficiency of solar, wind and hybrid power. The novelty of this work is the information technology backup power requirement considered in the technical comparison. The experimental result showed the input/output peak and off-peak voltages for solar, wind, and solar-wind hybrid energy DC-Volts are 12.67V/12.02V / 12.47V/11.61V, 12.53V / 11.90V / 12.48V / 11.87V, and 12.78V / 12.09V / 12.57 / 11.95V respectively signifying a significant increase from the on-load peak period while the on-load off-peak period is seen to be lower. The results also show that a hybrid solar-wind system tested at 5 minutes time intervals gives a superior output voltage regulation and efficiency when compared to the solar or wind individual systems. It was concluded that the hybrid system of solar and wind energy source is an ideal standalone renewable energy power option in the university.
