Every two minutes, at least one woman dies from complications related to pregnancy or childbirth in the world. Ethiopia is one of the countries where maternal mortality ratio is high. Despite the fact that maternal health care services are essential for improvement of maternal health coverage of...
The amount of available audio data in multimedia databases is increasing rapidly in consequencernof advancements in media creation, storage and compression technologies. This rapid increasernimposes new demands in audio data management and retrieval. As a result, growing number ofrnresearch works...
In this thesis, the compact microstrip patch antennas in stackedrnconfiguration have been proposed. The microstrip patch antenna structurernconsists of a square patch with four equal u-shape on four sides of eachrnpatches. These structures provide an optimized patch area resulting in arnsubstantial...
In Ethiopia, the extent of genetic diversity among sorghum germplasmrncollections from drought prone areas has not been well studied. To determinernthe extent of genetic diversity among different sorghum genotypes grown inrnmajor moisture stressed areas of Ethiopia, a total of 495 sorghum...
Poverty has many dimensions. Social aspect of poverty is one indicator of deprivation existing inrnsociety. The main objective of the study is to compare and contrast the living condition and therncoping and survival strategies used by female and male headed household in the study area.rnThe...
This paper examines the predictive validity of the EHEEQE to the Collegernperformance of students of the College of Education of Addis AbabarnUniversity during three consecutive years of first entrants of preparatoryrnorigin students in 2003104 academic year. The main purpose of the studyrnwas to...
We began by considering Dirac equation to derive the inverse compton scatteringrncross section in strong magnetic field and this cross section has simple form for thernscattering of a low frequency photon with relativistic electron.rnWe also derived the spectrum function from this cross...
Small-scale enterprises have become an important contributor to Ethiopia’s economy. The sectorrncontributes to the national objective of creating employment opportunities, trainingrnentrepreneurs, generating income and providing a source of livelihood for the majority of low-rnincome...
An amperometric urea biosensor based on facilitated transfer of urease-generatedrnammonium ion by a neutral carrier (ionophore) dibenzo-18-crown-6 across the polarizablernmembrane-stabilized interface between water and nitrobenzene is described and discussed.rnThe enzyme urease employed for the...
This paper is a project on the measurement and analysisrnof poverty in Ethiopia. Various statistical techniques ofrnmeasuring poverty are applied. Therefore, in this paper,rndifferent measures of poverty will "be reviewed and discussed,rnand apply them to Ethiopian setting to compute the results...
Satellite based communication and the utilization of wideband frequency spectrum are essential to military, aerospace communication and navigation. It will also enhance the terrestrial communication to meet the required coverage, quality and data rate. So its implementation is inevitable in the...
The literature on the impact of managerial self-interest on capital structure has alreadyrnbeen developed in developed markets that have different institutional financingrnarrangements from those in emerging markets. Therefore this requires a thoroughrnexamination of the impact of managerial...
