    Computer Modelling and Simulation for Inventory Control
    (Department of Computer Science, Nasarawa State University Keffi, 2012-01-06) Adegoke, G.K.; Aimufua, Gilbert Imuetinyan Osaze; Jegede, Abayomi Joshau
    This stud) concerns the role of computer simulation as a de\ ice lor conducting scientific experiments on inventor) control. The stores function utilizes a bulk of physical assets and engages a bulk of financial resources in a manufacturing outfit therefore there is a need for an efficient inventory control. The reason being that inventory control reduces cost of production and thereby facilitates the effective and efficient accomplishment of production objectives of an organization. Some mathematical and statistical models were used to compute the Economic Order Quantity (EOQ). Test data were gotten from a manufacturing company and same were simulated. The results generated were used to predict a real life situation and have been presented and discussed. The language of implementation for the three models is Turbo Pascal due to its capability, generality and flexibility as a scientific programming language.

    COMPUTER-ASSISTED INSTRUCTION: A REVOLUTIONARY APPROACH TO TEACHING AND LEARNING
    (Department of Computer Science, Nasarawa State University Keffi, 4-12-12) Aimufua, Gilbert Imuetinyan Osaze; Adegoke, G.K.; Jegede, Abayomi Joshau
    Teaching and learning is a continuous process in life by which positive or negative experiences are gained. Many methods of learning and teaching have been propounded and developed. Some of these include the traditional classroom system, the Montessori system. However, very few have been put into practice for fear of change. A number of these methods are used in schools to teach and learn with feedbacks while some remains as mere academic papers. The use of Information and Communication Technology (1CT) as a pathway to effective learning and teaching within a time band has been considered. The Kiosk revolutionary approach has also been proposed. The method when in use shall not only make students to acquire knowledge but also to have a good understanding of the subject.

    A SURVEY OF FORTRAN, PASCAL AND C PROGRAMMING LANGUAGES
    (Department of Computer Science, Nasarawa State University Keffi, 2012-05-06) Adegoke, G.K.; Aimufua, Gilbert Imuetinyan Osaze; Jegede, Abayomi Joshau
    This paper traces the evolutionary history and presents an impartial comparative study between three programming languages namely; FORTRAN, Pascal and C. The criteria of comparison is focused on expressivity, well-definedness, data types and structures, modularity, input/output facilities, portability, efficiency, pedagogy and generality. It also generally considers the characteristics of the three programming languages. Thereafter, it lists important criteria that influence die selection of a programming language. An evaluation of the three programming languages is then made utilizing some basic properties of programming languages in order to identify their selection by. entering an integer from 1 to 4, as a weight or relative importance factor for each of the criteria above. Integer 1 means that the criterion is poor while integer 4 means that the criterion is excellent. The study concluded that no one programming language is perfect for all people at all times for all jobs but the type of problem to be solved usually determines the selection of programming language to utilize.
