Application of mobile computing to enhance treatment information communication to HIV / AIDS patients
(Kampala International University, College of Computing and Information Technology, 2012-06) Kihangire, John Paul; Muhura, Dedan Njoroge
Many HTV!All)S support organizations have laboured to provide HP/-infected people with the life prolonging drugs such as ART. However in a nut cell many people mostly in the resource limited settings still lack enough information on how to effectively use them leading to high death rates of patients. Since many people own mobile phones( 67.4% (Uganda bureau of statistics, 2010) there was a need to come up with mechanisms to utilize a mobile phone for monitoring patient’s timely intake of drugs, restocldng from nearby health centres, timely reporting of adverse effects. A system prototype has been developed with the above mentioned functionalities. This can be adopted by ART service providers in Uganda. It was implemented using MySQL, PHP, python application logic script and XML) and hosted to an online web server. However further research should be done to ensure adherence in paediatrics (children) and people who cannot use mobile phones, Securing! encrypting adherence informationl messages to patients and monitoring patients with other diseases apart from HIV!AIDS. It is recommended that Ministry of health should work with telecomnmnication companies to enable registered patients in rural settings send free messages to health centres.

(Kampala international international: School of computing and Information technology, 2013-09) Daphine, Amusiri
For many years, institutions such as secondary schools and colleges have used file based I manual system to manage library use. Whereas this was quite efficient for some time, due to the expansion of the library and increase in the number of the library users such as students, the system wastes a lot of time especially when searching for a particular book or resource. In response to this problem, more librarians have been added (employed). and this has escalated the cost of managing the library. This inefficiency, led to the study that was aimed at automating the book keeping function of the library. A study was carried out at Kashenyi Vocational Senior Secondary School and it was discovered that the manual system had inefficiencies ranging from time wastage, high cost of operation in terms of human resources, long search time, and data redundancy among others. A computer based library management system was developed using visual studio 2005. The new system allows the user to add books into the system, search for books from the system database. Track member information, manage borrowing among others. By automating library operations, the school will enjoy the advantages of using databases and transaction processing systems.

Bulk sms management system
(Kampala International University, College of Computing and Information Technology, 2014-08) Modong, Annet; Mubanza, Ivan; Ssonko, Achilles
The use of uncensored customized sender IDs both numerical and alpha has been a big challenge to the Bulk SMS business since the year begun. This resulted into telecom companies blocking these bulk SMS companies from reaching their clients. For that matter, we embarked on this research using the following methods; one shot survey, questionnaires and interviews to find out whether this was a general challenge. We carried out our research on 50 people and 90% of our result confirmed our suspicion that indeed it was a general challenge. During our research, we approached MTN with a quest of finding out why they are blocking the bulk SMS companies and the response we got was that it was an initiative to protect their clients from being victims of misuse of customized sender ids. Also to promote their own bulk SMS packages but most of all to protect their clients from fraud. This being a locally identified problem, we came up with an initiative to limit the usage of customized alpha numeric sender id’s so as to identify any user who tries to misuse the SMS platforms hence allowing sending of bulk SMS directly to the respective recipients using the internet both reliable and liable.
