A Survey on Mining Frequent Patterns in data mining
Frequent pattern mining is a process of mining data as a set of itemsets or patterns from a transactional database which support the minimum support threshold. A frequent pattern is a pattern (ie. a set of items, substructures, subsequences etc.) that occurs frequently in a dataset. Association rule mining is a process of mining data as a set of rules from a transactional database which support the minimum support and confidence. The implementation methods uses special data structures to solve the problem of FPM and ARM. This paper presents some of the data structures for FPM with their advantages and disadvantages.

Adaptive Clustering in Multipath Routing for Intrusion Detection and Redundancy Management in Wireless Sensor Networks
In this paper we propose redundancy management of heterogeneous wireless sensor networks (HWSNs), utilizing multipath routing to answer user queries in the presence of unreliable and malicious nodes. The key concept of our redundancy management is to exploit the tradeoff between energy consumption vs. the gain in reliability, timeliness, and security to maximize the system useful lifetime. We formulate the tradeoff as an optimization problem for dynamically determining the best redundancy level to apply to multipath routing for intrusion tolerance so that the query response success probability is maximized while prolonging the useful lifetime. Furthermore, we consider this optimization problem for the case in which a voting-based distributed intrusion detection algorithm is applied to detect and evict malicious nodes in a HWSN. We develop a novel probability model to analyze the best redundancy level in terms of path redundancy and source redundancy, as well as the best intrusion detection settings in terms of the number of voters and the intrusion invocation interval under which the lifetime of a HWSN is maximized. We then apply the analysis results obtained to the design of a dynamic redundancy management algorithm to identify and apply the best design parameter settings at runtime in response to environment changes, to maximize the HWSN lifetime.

Analysis of Reservoir Parameters for Heavy-Oil Thermal Recovery by Steam Assisted Gravity Drainage
Reservoirs containing heavy oil are usually produced using any of the enhanced thermal oil recovery techniques. Steam assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) technique was used to extract heavy oil from the reservoir investigated. With the CMG STARS software, a theoretical analysis was performed and a numerical model was developed to simulate gravity-assisted steam-flood for a well that was subjected to thermal recovery technique where energy in the form of heat was supplied into the reservoir. Development of the simulation model was used for history matching. Sensitivity analysis was performed to determine the relationship between viscosity and temperature. Additional well placement was also modeled for production optimization. The methods applied and results obtained provide a platform for predicting production performance and establishes ways to improve recovery.

Domain of Relativistic Mechanics
It is astonishing to note that, Special Relativity Theory Equations are incongruous beyond half the speed of light, by mere Number Theory considerations, specifically ‘time dilation’ and ‘length contraction’ equations. Nevertheless, there is an exception to this theory, for particles of masses less than 1kg, or time intervals between events which are less than 1s or length contraction less than 300000km ,where it could be absolutely accurate as Einstein predicted and therefore it implies, these could change upto only 13.3%.

Effect of rotation and hall current on unsteady MHD flow past an impulsively started vertical plate with heat and mass transfer in porous medium
The present study is carried out to examine the effects of rotation and Hall current on unsteady natural convection flow of a viscous, incompressible and electrically conducting fluid past an impulsively started vertical plate in a porous medium under the influence of transversely applied uniform magnetic field. Exact solution of energy equation is obtained in closed form by Laplace transform technique, and solution of momentum equation is obtained by defining a complex variable. The expression for the shear stress at the plate due to the primary and secondary flows is obtained. The results obtained are shown by graphs and table.

If not busy for writing then bussy for what?: an overview on why current African political leaders are neglecting writing
This paper discusses the plight of the writing spirit among African ruling political elites. This plight is historically situated and it is subjected to a comparative perspective. While it is not the view of the author that writing is always the most effective means that can be used by political leaders to communicate with the public, communicating with the public through writing is one of the useful information transferring tools that ought not to be ignored. Through a trend analysis, the paper observes that unlike most of first African heads of state and governments who were keen to academic writing most of contemporary African leaders have lost interest in writing, with only a handful of leaders still involved in academic scholarship. Some of the factors that are attributed to this decline include; lack of ideological backing, the growing sense of insecurity among political leaders, the transformation of ruling parties and the influence of financial donors, just to mention some.

Impact of Accounting Information Systems on the Performance of Selected Companies in Nigeria
This study empirically investigates the extent of relationship between accounting information system and performance of selected companies in Nigeria. A total of 140 questionnaires were administered out of which 128 respondents returned theirs which represents 91% response rate considered adequate for this study. The Spearman’s Rank Correlation Coefficient statistical technique was employed for this study and used to test the hypotheses. The two hypotheses tested in this study revealed that accounting information has a significant relationship with the performance of companies in Nigeria. Based on this finding, the study recommends that Companies should constantly embrace the ever unfolding trend in accounting information systems as it is capable of enhancing the performance of companies. Since Accounting and Finance Departments are the two key departments which are the sources through which accounting information is implemented and used for effective and efficient management of finances of every company, management should organize regular training and re-training of the staff and expose them to the current demand and realities of accounting information systems. Keywords: Accounting information system, Performance of Companies.
