The Covid period has made issues of solidarity and isolation particularly important in society today. Adversity tends to cause drift towards despair, the survival fittest development that leave many behind. We have seen enough this with crises African societies confronted including violence, crime, governance crises, terrorism health calamities. Yet, these already generated interest ways buildi...

In this paper, an IP (Internet Protocol) -based Remote Combat Robot is conversed, namely VECTOR (Vigorous Efficient Combatant Tactical Operative Robot). The name VECTOR is chosen to depict the concrete physiognomies of the Robot which is assembled. This project is designed and developed to operate remote combat. IP communication is enforced to control every single state of VECTOR. Advantage ove...

Disasters such as Tsunami, Landslides, and cyclones occur frequently and a strong emergency management system is required to manage such situations. These kinds of crisis circumstances are expected to increase in future. The role of Information and communication technology can largely aid in handling calamities and provide first aid support. The characteristics of Cloud computing such as sharin...

Recent years have ushered in tremendous advances in information and communication technologies (ICT) and infrastructures for disaster management. Still, daily news on disasters has been telling us that even people in technologically advanced regions remain ill prepared. Smart and intelligent environments now offer us an increasingly broader spectrum of devices and services for comfort and conve...

This article examines exchange rate-based stabilization in an economy that has been badly destroyed by war or other calamities. The article does this in the context of post-civil war Lebanon. Both Iraq and Afghanistan are prime candidates for such a policy. This article first demonstrates the validity of the theory and empirical regularities (initial boom followed by an economic contraction) in...

The death toll exceeded 86,000, more than 13,000 were listed as missing, and 550,000 people had to evacuate the region. The s...

Robotics solutions properly sized with suitable modularized mechanized structure and well adapted to local conditions of dangerous unstructured areas can greatly improve the safety of personnel as well as the work efficiency, productivity and flexibility. Solving this problem presents challenges in robotic mechanics and mobility, sensors and sensor fusion, autonomous or semi autonomous navigati...

Human beings have been in search of security right from nomadic days. The history mankind is a the for security. Man had to face dangers and risk which threatened his very existence. As an individual he would found it difficult combat these external dangers.
