Application of Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare: Chances and Challenges

Abstract: Use of Artificial intelligence (AI) has increased in the healthcare in many sectors. Organizations from health care of different sizes, types and different specialties are now a days more interested in how artificial intelligence has evolved and is helping patient needs and their care, also reducing costs, and increasing efficiency. This study explores the implications of AI on healthcare management, and challenges involved with using AI in healthcare along with the review of several research papers that used AI models in different sectors of healthcare like Dermatology, Radiology, Drug design etc.

Unified Ontology Implementation of Cloud Computing for Distributed Systems

Abstract: The ability to provide massive data storage, applications, platforms plus many other services leads to make the number of clouds services providers been increased. Providing different types of services and resources by various providers implies to get a high level of complexity. This complexity leads to face many challenges related to security, reliability, discovery, service selection, and interoperability. In this review, we focus on the use of many technologies and methods for utilizing the semantic web and ontology in cloud computing and distributed system as a solution for these challenges. Cloud computing does not have an own search engine to satisfy the needs of the providers of the cloud service. Using ontology enhances the cloud computing selfmotivated via an intelligent framework of SaaS and consolidating the security by providing resources access control. The use RDF and OWL semantic technologies in the modeling of a multiagent system are very effective in increases coordination the interoperability. One of the most efficient proposed frameworks is building cloud computing marketplace that collects the consumer's requirements of cloud services provider and managing these needs and resources to provide quick and reliable services.

Tigernut Plant and Useful Application of Tigernut Tubers (Cyperus esculentus) - A Review

Abstract: Since thousands of years ago, millions of people enjoy chewing raw tigernut tubers (Cyperus esculentus) with less emphasis in processing the tubers into more useful products. Tigernut tuber is very common and abundant in Nigeria. It is always available in both wet and dry season. As global human population is increasing, it is pertinent to fully utilize readily available agricultural products such as tigernut tubers for the production of more useful products. Tigernut tuber is usually processed into three major useful products namely tigernut milk, tigernut flour and tigernut oil which could further be utilized to produce diverse edible and non-edible products. Several studies have been carried out by researchers to develop more useful products from tigernut tubers. The inability to effectively and adequately disseminate recent research findings to the populace as well as massively commercialize tigernut-derived products has been the bane of increased utilization of tigernut tubers in Nigeria and Sub-Saharan Africa. Therefore, this review article is aimed at sharing comprehensively available information on tigernut and recent research findings focused on increasing the utilization of tigernut tubers for the production of useful products.

Optimization of Building Energy Performance through Passive Design Strategies

Abstract: Passive buildings are capable of achieving the lowest energy requirements by optimizing heat losses and gains through the building envelope. Therefore, the thermal comfort in winter and summer can be maintained mostly without requiring the energy inputs and during the peak temperature periods with only minimum amounts of energy inputs. Application of passive strategies in building sector can be a promising measure to enhance the building energy efficiency. This paper is aimed at reviewing studies utilized passive strategies to optimize building energy utilization. The findings demonstrate that, usage of passive strategies in the building sector enhances sustainability measures predominantly through mitigating building’s negative environmental impacts besides optimizing its energy performance.
