Title A name given to the resource Frequency Splitting Elimination in a multi-coil power transfer system Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Samuel Afoakwa, Young-Bae Jung Description An account of the resource A multiple transmitter coil wireless power transfer system that eliminates the frequency splitting effect as a result of overcoupling between very close transmitter coils is proposed. The use of coils of different sizes in the transmitter array is proposed in order to eliminate the splitting of the magnetic field produced by the transmitters. This is done by designing three different multi-coil transmitter arrays, each with five transmitter coils with a single receiver coil placed 40 cm from the transmitters. The first array is designed with coils of the same size. The second and third arrays are designed with coils of smaller sizes placed between larger size coils. The performance of the three arrays is compared by considering the scattering parameters at the receiver coil. It is shown that using smaller coil sizes between larger coils causes uniform coupling in the multiple transmitter array, resulting in suppression and subsequent … Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available IEEE Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2020 Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived https://scholar.google.com/citations?view_op=view_citation&hl=en&user=QRyINJYAAAAJ&citation_for_view=QRyINJYAAAAJ:9yKSN-GCB0IC Language A language of the resource English https://repository.gctu.edu.gh/files/original/c30862cb871ec54fe1480d621507b2c9.PDF 82170eac94769d9233b9447ba410c7e6 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 From library anxiety to mobile Internet use Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Robert Ebo Hinson Description An account of the resource As is often the case, this issue deals with a variety of aspects of information development in a variety of countries – from library anxiety in the Sudan to mobile Internet use in China. The first paper deals with a country, the Sudan, which has featured only rarely in our pages over the years. ‘Sudanese library anxiety constructs’, by K.A. Abusin of the Sudan University of Science and Technology, and A.N. Zainab and Noor Harun Abdul Karim of the University of Malaya, reports on a study that explored library anxiety amongst Sudanese university students and identified the contributing factors. These factors were identified using diary information collected from third year undergraduate students. The analysis of diary entries revealed eight library constructs, which were collectively named ‘Sudanese Library Anxiety Construct’. The eight constructs comprised affective and cognitive barriers and negative perceptions towards the academic library environment, library staff, peers, library services, library collections and library regulations. The results show that a high proportion of Sudanese university students experience feelings of fear and anxiety when using the library to write their first research paper. We remain in Africa with the second paper, ‘Internet browsing behavior: a case study of executive postgraduate students in Ghana’, by Robert Ebo Hinson of the University of Ghana Business School. The paper examines the motivation for Internet browsing amongst Executive MBA students at the School. The study revealed that students browse the Internet for social, academic and professional purposes. Their social use includes sending and receiving email, socializing through Facebook, chatting and making new friends. Academic motivations for browsing include research, getting access to academic journal databases, interacting with lecturers and supervisors, registering for professional courses and obtaining information on specific courses of study. Professionally, students browse the Internet to obtain trade information, interact with clients, check on conference alerts, and access databases of clients. In general, the students browse the Internet because of its perceived usefulness in providing quick and accessible information, its convenience and as a communication tool. We move to Asia, and a completely different topic, with the next paper, ‘The effect of ICT on political development: a qualitative study of Iran’, by Ali Pirannejad of the University of Tehran. Twenty-six government officials and policy makers and 31 ordinary citizens of Tehran were interviewed to investigate how ICT affects political development. The results were grouped into five categories: political empowerment and public control, as two factors which affect the political development of people; and capacity building, public service and transparency, as three elements which affect political development in government. The study found that ICTs influence the political development of people through empowerment and public control, which help them to monitor their government. The paper concludes with some ideas for further research. The next paper takes us to the other side of the world with another change of subject. In ‘The potential of e-reserves for the Main Library, University of the West Indies, St. Augustine, Trinidad’, Rabia Ramlogan and Jennifer Papin-Ramcharan (deceased), of the University of the West Indies, outline the factors to be taken into account by the library in looking to implement an e-reserves service. Background preparation involved a survey of the literature and current library practices to assess the benefits and challenges of e-reserves, while other factors considered included increased access to local content and local copyright legislation. The implementation of the e-reserves pilot is discussed, followed by the pilot’s preliminary findings and lessons learned from the pilot experience. The paper ends with recommendations aimed at moving the project forward, giventhe service’s importance regarding increased availability and accessibility of core teaching materials Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Reprints and permission: Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2011 Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/pdf/10.1177/0266666911414378 Language A language of the resource English https://repository.gctu.edu.gh/files/original/ae590ba357b8980e685813d0e74b6ae8.pdf 9613fff21bfb587202d47ea9e5874aa4 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 From Smartphones To Computerized Business Operations: Modeling ICT Development and Electricity Consumption in Emerging Digital Economies Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Isaac Ankrah, Michael Appiah-Kubi, Sampson Twumasi-Ankrah, Frank Gyimah Sackey, Richard Asravor, Brenya Boahemaa, Derrick Donkor, Lilian Arthur, Christopher Lamptey, Eric Mochiah Description An account of the resource The integration of new digital technologies amid a rising population in many emerging economies imposes incessant pressure on their energy systems. It has become crucial to draw result implications for future energy sustainability by exploring all relevant issues, particularly in light of how Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) influence electricity demand. Using the West African region as the subject of analysis, this study provides insights into the implied connection, taking into account the region’s disparate cultural and linguistic patterns. The study is complemented by a result-based analysis of the socioeconomic and policy implications. The outcomes, derived from the application of a dynamic panel data model to a dataset spanning 1990-2021, show that ICT adoption has significant implications on electricity consumption, with notable positive impact observed in the long run. Interestingly, this effect is largely driven by French-speaking countries in the region. Beyond this statistical revelation, this study underscores the need for a balanced approach to address the ICT-electricity demand interplay. An important conclusion emerges: Embracing digitalization while ensuring energy security and sustainability can unlock economic growth, promote social inclusion, and foster a sustainable future for West Africa.
