    Code Quality Metric of Searching Algorithms for Multi-Paradigm Languages
    (International Journal of Scientific Research and Management (IJSRM), 2019-05-20) Sotonwa K. A.; Balogun M. O.; Olusi Titilayo
    This study investigated the comprehensibility of a software code from a developer‟s point of view and proposed new metric accordingly. The factors that affect the complexity of procedural, object-oriented, and multi-paradigm codes were analyzed for this purpose. Addition to the investigated factors, various metrics and several aspects were combined in the proposed metric. The proposed metric were empirically validated in different paradigms.

    Feasibility of Wind Energy Utilization for Sustainable Power Generation in Ilorin, Kwara State, Nigeria's North-Central Region
    (ABUAD Journal of Engineering Research and Development (AJERD, 2024-05-16) Balogun Monsurat Omolara; Jimada-Ojuolape Bilkisu; Taiwo James Ayo; Olusi Titilayo
    The escalating energy demands across Nigeria, especially in remote rural areas, have outpaced the capacity of the national electricity grid, necessitating the development of independent and sustainable energy sources. Among the renewable options, wind energy stands out as a promising solution. This study focuses on assessing the potential of wind energy in Ilorin, located in Kwara State, within Nigeria's north-central region. Utilizing data collected from 2007 to 2021 by the Nigerian Meteorological Agency, the research examines monthly average wind speeds at two specific coordinates in Ilorin, considering variations in air density. The study utilizes a 15-year set of monthly average wind velocities obtained from the Nigerian Meteorological Agency (NiMet) Headquarters in Abuja, measured at a height of 10 meters above ground level. By employing the 2-coefficient Weibull statistical model and extrapolation principles across different altitudes ranging from 150 to 900 meters above ground level, the study reveals distinct seasonal patterns of wind speeds ranging from 1.1 to 5.1 m/s in Ilorin. Furthermore, wind power density values ranging from 6.7 to 39.20 W/m2 are identified, with optimal wind attributes observed at altitudes exceeding 900 meters. These findings provide valuable insights for assessing the feasibility of wind energy utilization and designing efficient systems in Nigeria's north-central regions, aiding in the sustainable energy transition.
