Business Value Creation Through Artificial Intelligence-Enabled Cybersecurity Systems

Abstract Cybersecurity has traditionally been framed as a cost centre concerned with loss prevention, yet a growing body of practitioner and academic opinion now argues that, when powered by artificial intelligence (AI), cybersecurity can function as a genuine driver of business...

A Multi-Layered Ai-Based Cybersecurity Framework for Business Continuity and Operational Resilience

Abstract Organisations today operate in a threat environment in which cyberattacks are no longer isolated technical incidents but direct threats to business continuity and operational resilience. This study proposes and empirically examines a multi-layered, artificial-intelligenc...

Hypertension in Young Adults in Nigeria: A Review of Prevalence and Emerging Trends

Abstract Background Hypertension is increasingly being observed among young adults in low- and medium-income countries, including Nigeria. Although national estimates show a rising burden over the last three decades, the extent to which these trends affect younger populations rem...

Spatiotemporal trends and seasonal variations in meteorological parameters and radio refractivity across Nigeria’s eco-climatic zones

The propagation of radio waves/signals is strongly influenced by atmospheric parameters, leading to signal degradation, unpredictable communication ranges, and link blackouts; however, this understanding has not been fully explored across diverse eco-climatic zones. Using meteoro...

Waste-derived single-cell protein in Nigeria: current status, translational gaps, and development opportunities

Abstract This review examines the current state of single-cell protein (SCP) research based on waste-derived substrates in Nigeria, with emphasis on substrate choice, microbial systems, bioprocess strategies, performance reporting, and prospects for commercial translation. Eviden...

Assessment of environmentally suitable sites for solid waste sanitary landfill using analytical hierarchy process (AHP) and GIS in Uyo and environs, South-South Nigeria

Abstract Rapid urban growth in the Global South makes it harder to choose infrastructure corridors, especially in sensitive coastal basins. This study introduces a spatial decision-support framework tailored to local conditions. It combines the Delphi technique, Analytical Hierar...

Inoculum-dependent microbial communities and the inoculum-to-substrate ratio regulate biomethane potential during co-digestion of solid wastes

Anaerobic co-digestion of organic wastes is a sustainable method for recovering renewable energy, but its performance is highly dependent on factors such as the type of inoculum used and the inoculum-to-substrate ratio (ISR). The impact of inoculum type and ISR on biogas producti...
