World Energy Day 2017: Reduction of Carbon emission to Mitigate Climate Change.

World Energy Day 2017: Reduction of Carbon emission to Mitigate Climate Change.  

The World Energy day has come and gone but left us with some remarkable footprint on the sand of time. As the world marked the energy day and the advocacy is for a sustainable environment for human living. Nigeria will continue to remain a potential global competitor in the renewable energy industry even though this energy sources are still underutilized .

Let begin with what carbon emission means in the 21^st century. When carbon is emitted into the atmosphere from human and machine activities, the accumulation of the emission causes a blanket in the cloud which leads to warming. This warming causes climate change. This is evident in our environment such as sudden flooding; land slide, wild fire etc.

The demands of climate change and the 21st century information based society requires the development of renewable energy resources, and energy efficiency resources.

The Energy efficiency and carbon footprint reduction among other leading information and communications technology solutions, radical new power systems architectures and innovative market mechanisms to support increasing renewable energy deployment and the electrification of transportation and heating in the world today are cutting across business and industrial sectors.

According to the president of Nigerian energy association he said Nigeria can focus beyond oil by using our gas especially in the urban areas and for the rural we will have tap into the renewable sources like solar wind etc. Studies have shown that green energy especially in china has been a solution.

Energy economist advocates responsibility in supply for sustainable energy for all. A right energy mix is possible and Nigeria is also exploiting the more renewable sources.

At the moment, about 12 million Nigerian are subscribing to meter payment out of the 200 million and a few out of the 12 million is exploiting the vast renewable sources in the air even though the cost is far higher than the supply.   

Unlike the developing World, the developed counties like  United States, United Kingdom is ahead of the curve for example the United kingdom has a target of 2040 to divert to renewable sources. 

The issue of energy transition is paramount so as not to be left behind. It is incumbent that Nigerian government out in place actionable plan is expedient. Focus on Nigeria beyond oil. In terms of the legal of Nigerian framework and technology support to support the transition is not there

The energy mix especially in electricity generation is dominated by gas and that is what is fed into the grids. Nigeria is well endowed in the area of solar hydro and we are not doing much about that.

The government can leap frog the process by providing enabling environment to support the growth. A great gap still exist in the international space on how to balance flow with the world and the Nigerian case.

THIRD QUARTER: Content Cloud Management in the Big Data Era.

THIRD QUARTER: Content Cloud Management in the Big Data Era.

In this blog we explain how the future content network would be managed in the Cloud. 

By Modupe, Director of Marketing, 22.00hrs G.M.T 3^rd August 2017.

It amazing how the rate of data is rapidly increasing at an exponential rate with the proliferation of internet enabled devices all over the globe. In Sub-Saharan Africa, our mobile experience is also at the same rate as the population increases and everyone is pushing hard to store data in the cloud via the internet

It tempting to want to keep everything, after all you never know what might be important later. You want to expect the unexpected and if the time comes, you want to have access to fast information you need and even if you could keep everything you need, doing it has drawbacks increasing the amount of data you store will not solve the problem, it may even make a big problem bigger.

Saving everything leads to operational ineffieiciences, difficulty complying with regulatory requirements and rising cost. The more you keep, the harder it is to find what you need to make key decisions. Increase storage without intelligent content management just increases complexity. You spent a lot of money to keep things that you can’t even find, almost as if you have not kept them at all. It also exposes your organisation to legal and financial unrest.

Sometimes being able to locate information is not an option, so if can trust your money and storage capacity, whatever option is left, to keep everything forever model has failed.

First Quarter " Open Flow (SDN) Technology for Managing Content Centric Networks "

The objective of this article is for our audience who are interested in the Content-Centric Networking (CCN) as the future internet architecture and services and that is why we put together this article from April's workshop proceedings at  12.00Hrs G.M.T

This article focuses on the use of Open Flow (SDN) Technology for Managing Content Centric Networks in the future internet and efficient service delivery. Managing the future internet will be based on policies that support named content. Much credit goes to Van Jacobson in his original idea from the 2009 seminar on named content and his recent project work on Named Data Networking Next Phase (NDN-NP)

In next generation networks, packet move through an open flow network. Open flow is a standardized protocol for interacting with the forwarding behavior of the switches from multiple vendors.          This provides a way to dynamically and programmatically control the behavior of switches throughout the network. Open Flow is a pertinent protocol in SDN solutions. The open network foundation (ONF) defines an open flow switch contains one or more tables.  Each is meant to hold flow entries.

Credit also goes to John Cosmas recent brilliant work that focused on multi-faceted evaluation of the control architecture and application in diverse environments  which gave us insight in this workshop.

Their contributions reveal that data synchronization is a significant NDN Communication primeval for distributed applications. Named data is a better abstraction for today’s communication than named hosts and presented Content-Centric Networking (CCN) as the future internet architecture.

Further demonstration of NDN capabilities in Internet of Things (IoT) and big data environments are work in progress.

 Our May 2017 workshop focuses on the evaluation of communication cost of multi-casting sync interests and designing more scalable and efficient solutions for delivering sync interest.

The Content Centric Networks model is developed around named content and not data location.     The pro of our technical report is that Content Centric Network can be utilized as Overlay Networks. 

The security of named content is guaranteed unlike IP networking where the host-based vulnerabilities are still germane issue.

Our Discussions on the limited understanding of the performance in realistic operational conditions of Content routers cache from a theoretical perspective to practical demonstrations are available on our website.

The big picture question is how do content providers and service providers handle the major research problem of scalability in content-centric networks? Various ICN projects introduced Content Centric Networking Routing with the main aim to anchor matching prefixes. This viable proposition is similar to the outcome of our technical report.  However, it eliminates the use of a pending Interest Tables (PIT) or forwarding information bases lookup before forwarding interests.  The next article will explore how CCN as a communications protocol can complement existing IP infrastructure and critically evaluate and discuss solution to forwarding interests criterion.
