    In grid computing a loosely coupled and virtual computing infrastructure is created out of a collection of connected heterogeneous processors sharing various combinations of resources. It is pertinent to note that African Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) cannot participate in the global market using the current e-business solution due to the lack of or nonexistent infrastructure to support such services. In this paper, we propose a grid service based solution that is indigenous to African SMEs and technologically tailored to meet their local needs. The solution is based on an Application Service Provider (ASP) grid framework. The framework is specified using Universal Modeling Language (UML)

    A Low Cost Course Information Syndication System
    (Journal of information technology education, 2011-01) Ajayi, Anuoluwapo Olanrewaju; Olajubu, Emmanuel; Bello, Sururah Apinke; Soriyan, H.Abimbola
    Executive Summary This study presents a cost effective, reliable, and convenient mobile web-based system to facili-tate the dissemination of course information to students, to support interaction that goes beyond the classroom. The system employed the Really Simple Syndication (RSS) technology and was developed using Rapid Application Development (RAD) methodology. The design of the system was modeled using Unified Modeling Language (UML) diagrams, while its implementation was done using Java Micro Edition (JME) and "PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor" (PHP). A simulation technique was used to evaluate the proposed system performance by comparing the approach used in its design to one adopted in a similar study, using response time and bandwidth consumption as metrics. The results obtained revealed that the performance of the proposed syn-dication system was better. Similarly, an experiment to investigate the students' perception of the system was conducted, with students' responses revealing a tremendous success of this project.
