http://ijaems.com/ Open Access international Journal to publish research paper en-us April 2018 The purpose of this study is to investigate the factors influencing internal auditing and its relationship with organizational performance. Multiple regressions were utilized to evaluate the scale of the influence of the four independent variables identified in the conceptual framework on organizational performance. The sample of this research was taken by random sampling method. The data were obtained by questionnaire. All variables were measured by using 5 point Likert scale. The result showed that the There are a significant relationship between competence of Internal Audit department, size of Internal Audit department, management support for internal audit Independence of internal audit and organizational performance. The limitation of this study is very small number of populations; therefore the findings will be difficult to be generalized to examine factors influencing the internal audit effectiveness. Future research should consider larger number of the population also including more internal auditing factors to measure the organizational performance. http://ijaems.com/detail/factors-influencing-the-effectiveness-of-internal-audit-on-organizational-performance/ Barzan Omar Ali http://ijaems.com/upload_images/issue_files/1 IJAEMS-APR-2018-2-Factors influencing the effectiveness.pdf The paper proposes the possibility of using oat as a test plant for studying ecological longevity.

Queue system can successfully reduce waiting time of the patients in the hospitals. We aim to implement a model that initializes alert notification via SMS to patients of a hospital. It will minimize the queue of patients in the waiting area of hospital and also patient can book an appointment from anywhere at a given time. Patients can book an appointment via android application. and accordingly patients and also it will provide navigation towards that nearest hospital. Hence, for developing such a model a survey has been done on various types of queues. http://ijaems.com/detail/a-survey-on-patient-queue-management-system/ Prof. Neha Titarmare, Prof. Ashwini Yerlekar http://ijaems.com/upload_images/issue_files/3 IJAEMS-MAR-2018-12-A Survey on Patient.pdf Even everyday banks are promoting various employees training and development programs for their staffs, but still there is no certain or effective instrument to confirm how they influence to banks’ performance. Therefore, this research planned to determine the relationship between training and development with banks performance and its comparison between training and development. The researcher distributed 250 questionnaires, but only 209 questionnaires were received from employees and been completed. The researcher used a quantitative research method to investigate the most of significance factor that affects banks performance, through measuring and comparing employee training and employee development at banks. The findings of multiple regression analysis revealed that the effect of employee training on banks performance is stronger than the effect of employee development on banks performance in Erbil. http://ijaems.com/detail/the-influence-of-performance-training-and-development-on-organizational-performance-a-case-study-of-private-banks-in-kurdistan/ Nawroz Ahmed Abdulrahman http://ijaems.com/upload_images/issue_files/4 IJAEMS-MAR-2018-7-The influence of performance.pdf In the existing cloud brokerage system, the client does not have the ability to verify the result of the cloud service selection. There are possibilities that the cloud broker can be biased in selecting the best Cloud Service Provider (CSP) for a client. A compromised or dishonest cloud broker can unfairly select a CSP for its own advantage by cooperating with the selected CSP. To address this problem, we propose a mechanism to verify the CSP selection result of the cloud broker. In this verification mechanism, properties of every CSP will also be verified. It uses a trusted third party to gather clustering result from the cloud broker. This trusted third party is also used as a base station to collect CSP properties in a multi-agent’s system. Software Agents are installed and running on every CSP. The CSP is monitored by agents as the representative of the customer inside the cloud. These multi-agents give reports to a third party that must be trusted by CSPs, customers and the Cloud Broker. The third party provides transparency by publishing reports to the authorized parties (CSPs and Customers). http://ijaems.com/detail/mmb-cloud-tree-verifiable-cloud-service-selection/ Mr. B.

GeoSoc a node can take one of the following states: SINK: The master node of the whole network manager of receiving all the information that is collected by all the sensor nodes that make up the different clusters used for monitoring desired area. Cluster head: The node that coordinates a group of nodes that are part of a cluster and are responsible for the monitoring of an assigned area. Is responsible for establishing direct connection with the SINK node to transmit the information collected for all its sensor nodes. In case of losing SINK contact, can make use of a node. Gateway: A node that has connection with two Cluster head or a sensor node that does not reach its Cluster head. This type of nodes is used to increase network coverage and reduce loss connection by the nodes that make up the net.•Sensor Member: These nodes are responsible for Collect the information you want to monitor. Is the state that a node takes when it has already established Cluster head connection to a node? • Disconnected: A node has this been in two situations, 1) when it is activated for the first time and have to look for the cluster to which must be connected, 2) when it loses connection with its coordinator node and you have to perform the search for a new node coordinator. http://ijaems.com/detail/geosoc-a-geo-cast-based-communication-protocol-for-monitoring-of-marine-environments/ Mr. B.

An empirical quantitative technique utilized to analyze the present research. The researcher applied a random sampling method, where all respondents had equal chances of being selected for the sample. The research was carried out at 18 private businesses in Erbil. The population of this research was approximately 341 employees, accordingly to cover the entire research population; 100 surveys were distributed but 84 forms were collected that were accomplished accurately. The results showed that the highest value was for economic factor this means that economic is strongly related to employment and has strong influence on employment during crisis in private businesses in Kurdistan. http://ijaems.com/detail/factors-affecting-employment-during-crisis-in-private-businesses-in-kurdistan/ Dr. Ayoub Hasan http://ijaems.com/upload_images/issue_files/8 IJAEMS-APR-2018-11-Factors affecting.pdf Entrepreneur has an essential role in the country’s economy especially during economic crisis, being considered one of the main engines of economic growth, and an important contributor to creating new jobs and innovations. Identifying the main determinants of entrepreneurial activity is important for helping the decision makers in adopting adequate measures to support the creation and development of new businesses. The study was carried out in a private furniture company named ‘’Sam furniture company’’ in Erbil, the researcher was able to gather 112 questionnaires in order to test the developed research hypotheses. The findings revealed that the highest value obtained was by previous experience of entrepreneur in running furniture companies in Erbil on the other hand the lowest value of background education of entrepreneur in establishing and expanding a furniture company in Erbil. http://ijaems.com/detail/success-factors-behind-entrepreneurship-during-economic-crisis-a-study-of-sam-office-furniture-in-erbil-kurdistan/ Mohammed Ali Saleem Alozairi http://ijaems.com/upload_images/issue_files/9 IJAEMS-APR-2018-12-Success factors.pdf Rotation with leguminous crops to break non-legume monocultures has been established to benefit the latter. The lacking information on this cultivation system in stressed environments encouraged the implementation of two field trials in two different locations of Ismailia desert soils. The experimental design included the cultivation of wheat subsequent to peanut in presence of diazotroph inoculation and N fertilization. Bradyrhizobial inoculation of the legume in combination with 50 kg N acre-1 resulted in the highest total biological yields of 4.24 and 5.01 kg plot-1 at the experimental sites 1 and 2, respective seed yields of 1.46 and 1.61 kg pot-1 were recorded. In case of the cereal crop, the measured acetylene reducing activities in soils of associative diazotroph-inoculated plants together with 50 kg N acre-1 were the highest being 515.8-886.2 and 616.7-1066.2 nmoles C2H4 g-1 h-1 at locations 1 and 2 respectively. The enzymatic activity of fallow-cultivated wheat generally represented ca. 95 % of that in subsequent to peanut. Irrespective of inoculation and N fertilization, the wheat biomass yield increases in residual effect-field over the fallow one were 6.4-35.1 % and 4.6-38.5 % at experimental sites 1 and 2 respectively. Increase percentages of 3.1-26.6 and 6.9-44.7 were scored as well for grain yield. The beneficial residual effect of the legume to the succeeding cereal was also extended to protein yields, increases of 4.0-14.2 % and 4.5-7.6 % were estimated for grain protein as well as 8.3-24.1 % and 8.1-35.3 % for straw protein yield. The findings of this study proved that the positively yield turnover of a legume is extended to the subsequent non-legume. Besides, the beneficial residual effects of legumes toward rotated non legumes could be magnified by diazotroph inoculation together with adequate N supply particularly in stressed environments represented, in the present study, by Ismailia sandy soil. http://ijaems.com/detail/credit-of-peanut-to-subsequent-wheat-under-desert-farming-conditions-in-presence-of-diazotrophs-and-nitrogen-fertilizers/ Badawi H.

There are many quarries in the Kumasi area which produce aggregates for use in construction works. However, there is no readily available information on the geological and geotechnical properties of these aggregates for use by engineers during the planning, design and construction of projects. This project therefore sought to characterise the aggregate from selected areas (close to some major quarries) in Kumasi based on their geological and engineering properties for construction purposes. Results of the study indicate that Aggregates from sampling locations KP and CS passed the FI test with those from CS being the only ones to pass for EI, making them the best aggregates in terms of Flakiness and Elongation Indices. The aggregates from all the sampling locations passed for the Specific Gravity and Water Absorption tests with CS aggregates giving the best results indicating high strength and good rate of water absorption. Aggregate from sampling location NM gave the best result for the Aggregate Impact Value test indicating high resistance to sudden impacts and shocks. With the Ten Percent Fines Value and the Aggregate Crushing Value Tests, CS yet again produced the aggregates with the best results. The aggregate gave a very high result even under the wet/soaked condition when all the others were giving very low results. Aggregates from this sampling locations can withstand loading gradual compression better than the rest. Finally, the KP aggregates gave the best results for the Los Angeles Abrasion Value which suggests such materials to be the hardest and toughest to resist crushing, degradation and disintegration. Aggregates from the CS, however gave the second best results. From the study, it was concluded that the most suitable location to obtain good quality aggregates is around CS as its aggregates gave the best results in almost all the tests. http://ijaems.com/detail/engineering-characterisation-of-aggregates-from-some-selected-areas-in-kumasi-ghana/ Amoako K., Ahenkorah I., Baffoe E., Kubi B., Mends L.

This study, therefore, discusses improvement of distribution efficiency of 11kV power lines through placement of capacitor banks in the network. Power flow in the network, Ado-Ekiti 11kV lines, was carried out using Newton-Rapson iteration method available in MATLAB while the analysis of the network was actualized using the conventional load flow equation modeling. From the analysis of the network, voltage deviation falls within the range of -5.9 to -180.5% which is completely outside the permissible range of ±5%. Voltage drop on the feeders is within the range (1.2 – 1.9) kV before and (0.2 – 0.7) kV after the reactive power of the network was compensated. http://ijaems.com/detail/improvement-of-power-delivery-efficiency-of-11kv-power-line-using-power-capacitor-placement/ A.

The main objective was to investigate sustainable tactics that will contribute to trim down pressure on Pan troglodytes ellioti and other flagship species around the study areas. Data collections were undertaken with the help of interviewed administered questionnaires, informal interview using interview guide, group discussion and direct observations activities. Following interviewees response, sixty eight (68%) of the respondents were confident that they could take up effective management of the K-FNP and K-WFR. Equally, 92% of respondents agreed to the fact that increasing population, poverty increment, insufficient modern health facilities, influx of new cultural activities due to loss of traditional taboos and totemic beliefs, remains greater threat to chimpanzees in the study areas. Most of the interviewees (74%) agreed that updating of knowledge on the abundance and distribution of chimpanzee, identifying location of all human activities especially huts, farms, shortcuts and illegal market in the park/reserve through regular patrols with eco-guards to reinforce order and ensure a better protection for chimpanzees is vital. Much more, 95% of respondent accepted the fact that old and new traditional knowledge of conservation such as taboos/law, totemic beliefs, sacred forests, royal species, automatic spiritual sanction, harvesting seasons should be revived and encourage through traditional institutions/council to better protect chimpanzees. Furthermore, 85% of interviewees accepted the suggestion that to get rid of poor traditional practices that uses chimpanzee’s body parts/meat for medicine and rituals, can be replace with goats, sheep, pig, fouls body parts/meat. To reduce over dependent and conflicts on chimpanzees products and other natural resources, 97% of the respondents were in favour that income generating micro-projects such as fish farming, animal rearing, and market gardening should be promoted. Providing jobs through ecotourism activities such as forest clearance and excursions, construction of adequate and equip infrastructures were highly welcome by 99% of interviewees. To attain all these, regular conservation educational programmes in schools, meeting places and in “ngumba” houses should be promoted to well sensitize population on chimpanzee’s conservation. http://ijaems.com/detail/propose-strategies-to-enhance-the-biodiversity-status-and-traditional-knowledge-systems-relevant-for-the-conservation-of-pan-troglodytes-ellioti-in-the-kimbi-fungom-national-park-and-kom-wum-forest-reserve/ MVO Denis CHUO, TSI Evaristus ANGWAFO http://ijaems.com/upload_images/issue_files/15 IJAEMS-APR-2018-16-Propose Strategies.pdf
