Validation effortsprove that numerous entities are willing to purchase Mashavu stations. They can chargecustomers a small fee, thereby making Mashavu economically sustainable and creating anadditional revenue stream.12The Mashavu team aims to: 1. Design, prototype and test inexpensive computer-based biomedical devices (Mashavu station) and the networked system (Mashavu network). 2. Perform preliminary on-the-ground testing of the Mashavu stations, Mashavu network and the business plan. 3. Implement the system in a top-down manner and bottom-up manner and craft the final scale-up

Upon actual fuel cell performance, it was found that hismembrane, while not reducing fuel crossover, unexpectedly significantly enhanced fuel cellperformance. It appears that the unintentional segregation of the composite membrane enhancesperformance and has induced a shift in the project focus towards the understanding of theperformance enhancement and optimization.

Some older computer languages such as FORTRAN &BASIC (developed in 1950’s) have given understanding to the development of modern object-oriented languages such as Visual Basic, C++ and JAVA. Of course, these are not the onlyknown exhaustive set of computer languages. There are many other computer languages ofspecial purpose significance and are used in select scientific environment.In particular, the students today are taught some computer language programming constructs andthe associated program creation to help solve science and engineering problems, with some built-in graphical user interface convenience.

Along with focused questionsregarding perceived strengths in technical topics as well as communication and collaboration,existing measures of learning style modes will be used including identify students learningpreferences in relation to the major.

from it. There is no doubt that it is a great idea toteach a data mining course in computer science curriculum. As you can tell, students taking adata mining course need to have background in quite a few areas to be successful. Not everystudent taking this course may have the background required in all these areas. The question ishow can an instructor remedy the challenge of teaching a group of students with widely-rangingbackgrounds, and at what level should this course be taught. Furthermore, the issue of groupwork arises, specifically as to whether data mining course projects should be accomplishedindividually or as teams.Studies show that many universities are teaching data mining course(s) within their computersscience curriculum.
