Title A name given to the resource Bank Brand Avoidance: Service Perspectives from Nigeria and Ghana Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Robert Ebo Hinson Description An account of the resource Brands are important for both consumers and frms. While strong brands bring fnancial benefts to frms and help them diferentiate themselves from competing products, it also gives assurance to consumers and helps assuage the tension involved in making a purchase decision (Keller, 2001). Brands are also essential for the success of service frms (Berry, 2000). However, service branding is complicated due to its intangibility (Berry, Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Te Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2022 Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Varsha-Jain-6/publication/360369229_Leveraging_Digital_Marketing_and_Integrated_Marketing_Communications_for_Brand_Building_in_Emerging_Markets/links/6490186795bbbe0c6ed8cf19/Leveraging-Digital-Marketing-and-Integrated-Marketing-Communications-for-Brand-Building-in-Emerging-Markets.pdf#page=78 Language A language of the resource English Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Nature-inspired algorithms and smart city applications Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Richard C Millham, Israel Edem Agbehadji, Emmanuel Freeman Description An account of the resource The paradigm of the fourth industrial revolution has presented a unique opportunity to interconnect the cyber-physical space. The objective of this interconnection is to encourage the fusion of technologies from physical, digital, and biological spheres to encourage digitization of resources ranging from building, cars, hospital, schools, energy, and many more. It is expected that such resources can make independent decisions on their state to avoid human intervention in monitoring the state of these resources which have their direct and indirect cost implication. Having an intelligent resource monitoring regime forms the underlying structure of cyber-physical space. In this article, the authors focus on the future of integrated nature-inspired algorithms in helping create an optimized resource monitoring regime towards the smart city applications.

Title A name given to the resource Saving the planet: An Assessment of green computing practice among tertiary institutions in Ghana Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource EMMANUEL Freeman Description An account of the resource This study assesses the current state of adoption and practice of Green Computing among Ghana Tertiary Institutions. The driving force for this investigation includes issues of conducive academic environment and humanity, energy conservation, disposal, and recycling of electronic devices in tertiary institutions. To achieve this, both quantitative and qualitative methods are used to capture data for the findings and analysis. Data were collected from a sample of 200 computer users of faculty members, administrative staffs and students among five selected Universities and Polytechnics Analysis of the study has shed light on the levels of green computing knowledge and practice possessed by computer users. The scenario that emerged from the findings is less than desirable. Given the importance of green computing awareness, knowledge, practice and adoption, it is recommended that academic institutions and government agencies to take the first step in educating the public, regarding the" underlying principles and practice" of green computing. The general impression from the study is that, computer users in the selected schools generally have either low levels of green computing habits and practices or none at all. Also, the institutions have made very little effort to accept the practice in their schools. This is as a result of the facts that, the awareness of Green IT in most institutions and the practices among individuals are not in place; hence a lot of people are ignorant about this new development of technology.

Title A name given to the resource Emerging challenges, opportunities, and agenda for research, practice, and policy on marketing and brand communications of higher education institutions in Africa Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Robert Ebo Hinson Description An account of the resource The higher education landscape is changing. The global competition for students’ enrolments has increased around the world. Universities are competing within their home market as well as in the international market. As government funding for public universities is reducing, there is pressure on universities to seek additional income by increasing their student enrolment. Attracting and enrolling students has become increasingly more challenging, as student behaviour is changing. These challenges present the need for higher education institutions to be more strategic in their approach to reaching out to prospective students. This concluding chapter on strategic marketing of higher education in Africa presents practical implications and critical insights into strategic marketing and brand communications of higher education institutions in Africa. Agenda for future research were also provided. It is anticipated that this will shape further discussion and theoretical advancement which will be relevant for scholars, students, managers, practitioners, and policymakers in the field of higher education marketing.

Title A name given to the resource Effects of capital structure choice on profitability of oil marketing companies in Ghana (OMCs): case studies of Ghana Oil Company limited and total petroleum Ghana limited Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Patrick Baah-Acquah, Emmanuel Freeman, Ebenezer Perry Ellis Description An account of the resource Capital structure is actually a mix of different securities. The importance of capital structure cannot be over emphasized since it impacts on firm’s value. Capital structure choices have had significant impacts on shareholders wealth. The study investigated the impact of capital structure on the profitability of Oil Marketing Companies (OMC’s). With regards to the firm’s capital structure, the study employed short-term debt to total capital, long-term debt to total capital and total debt to total capital in comparison with return on assets (ROA), return on equity (ROE) and net profit margin (NPM). The study employed secondary data and the data was analysed using multiple regressions. The result reveals that short term debt to total capital, long term debt to total capital, total debt to total capital, firm size, and sales growth, have varying and mixed relationships with profitability in terms of return on asset, and return on equity of the Oil Marketing Companies (OMC’s). The study recommend that companies implement due diligence in considering debt financing decisions, to come out with the best possible financing blend which will maximize profitability for their companies.

Title A name given to the resource Nature-Inspired search method and custom waste object detection and classification model for smart waste bin Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Israel Edem Agbehadji, Abdultaofeek Abayomi, Khac-Hoai Nam Bui, Richard C Millham, Emmanuel Freeman Description An account of the resource Waste management is one of the challenges facing countries globally, leading to the need for innovative ways to design and operationalize smart waste bins for effective waste collection and management. The inability of extant waste bins to facilitate sorting of solid waste at the point of collection and the attendant impact on waste management process is the motivation for this study. The South African University of Technology (SAUoT) is used as a case study because solid waste management is an aspect where SAUoT is exerting an impact by leveraging emerging technologies. In this article, a convolutional neural network (CNN) based model called You-Only-Look-Once (YOLO) is employed as the object detection algorithm to facilitate the classification of waste according to various categories at the point of waste collection. Additionally, a nature-inspired search method is used as learning rate for the CNN model. The custom YOLO model was developed for waste object detection, trained with different weights and backbones, namely darknet53.conv.74, darknet19_448.conv.23, Yolov4.conv.137 and Yolov4-tiny.conv.29, respectively, for Yolov3, Yolov3-tiny, Yolov4 and Yolov4-tiny models. Eight (8) classes of waste and a total of 3171 waste images are used. The performance of YOLO models is considered in terms of accuracy of prediction (Average Precision—AP) and speed of prediction measured in milliseconds. A lower loss value out of a percentage shows a higher performance of prediction and a lower value on speed of prediction. The results of the experiment show that Yolov3 has better accuracy of prediction as compared with Yolov3-tiny … Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available MDPI Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2022 Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived https://scholar.google.com/citations?view_op=view_citation&hl=en&user=rQvaaoMAAAAJ&citation_for_view=rQvaaoMAAAAJ:MXK_kJrjxJIC Language A language of the resource English http://repository.gctu.edu.gh/files/original/553027000b7aa7a4860f5229b07575d6.pdf 9aaf88f1f5310022cc94074da623981f Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Psychological Contract Fulfilment: A Suitable Umpire Between Transformational Leadership and Employee Engagement in the Ghanaian Public Sector Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Kenneth Parku, Theresa Obuobisa-Darko, Emelia Amoako Asiedu Description An account of the resource Daily transformational leadership behavior encourages employee work engagement. Psychological contract fulfilment significantly enhances employees' and affect employees’ attitude, behavior, engagement and performance in general. The study sought to examine the significant role transformational leadership play in psychological contract and employee engagement. Using a quantitative cross-sectional study approach and a snowball sampling technique, a self-designed questionnaire was used to gather data from two hundred and forty-seven employees from the public sector of Ghana. Hypotheses were tested by means of structural equation modelling with maximum likelihood estimation using Stata 15 software. The findings reveal that Transformation leadership had a positive significant relationship toward psychological contract and also towards employee engagement. Transformational leadership had a positive significant relationship towards employee engagement and also, psychological contract positively mediates the relationship between transformational leadership and employee engagement The study contributes to clarifying and extending the social exchange theory and the job demand resource theory by unravelling how the transformational leaders motivate, encourage and reward employees in the reciprocal relationship between himself and their subordinates.

Title A name given to the resource Perceptions of Internet Usefulness amongst Non-Traditional Exporters in Ghana Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Robert Ebo Hinson Description An account of the resource The study examined perceptions of Internet usefulness amongst Ghanaian Non-traditional Exporters with the view to understanding usage patterns from perspectives such as levels of internationalization and direction of trade. The results showed that, Ghanaian NTEs with the highest internationalisation (80% - 99%) reckoned the most that the Internet was definitely useful in their exporting activities. NTE businesses, which were over 10 years old, were the most certain about the fact that the Internet plays a key role in their exporting business. In terms of South-South relations, it was amazing to note that NTEs who had exporting relations in the West African sub-region believed the most that, Internet use helped them in their export business. Wholly owned local exporting firms believed the most that, the Internet was key to their exporting more. Majority of NTEs (70%) strongly disagreed with the notion that the Internet is only for technical people, and this is encouraging to the extent that knowledge about the technology and the use of its applications can be more easily diffused amongst Ghanaian NTEs.
