A Review of Diabetes Datasets
Original Research
Many intelligent healthcare systems have been developed to diagnose human diseases such as breast cancer, hepatitis, diabetes and heart diseases. Diabetes is a lifelong chronic disease that occurs when the pancreas does not produce enough insulin (Type I diabetes mellitus), or when the body's produced insulin is unable to be utilised properly (Type II diabetes mellitus), Researches that are carried out on diabetes using data mining techniques were done to predict type II diabetes mellitus using different diabetes datasets by different researchers; Pima Indians Diabetes Dataset (PIDD) is used by the majority of the researchers. The dataset (PIDD) has eight (8) attributes which limits more exploration in the field of Machine Learning (ML) for diabetes prediction. Diabetes prediction is limited because of the few attributes available in the diabetes datasets used, and these attributes play important roles in predicting diabetes mellitus types, classes and risk factors whenever a diabetes patient is diagnosed. This paper provides a systematic review of diabetes mellitus datasets, identifying the strength and weakness of the 8 attributes described in the PIDD, which is used by the most of the researchers. Furthermore, this paper has identified the need of the potential researchers in the research community to address the gap by enhancing the existing diabetes dataset attributes with additional attributes, identify the attributes required for the prediction of glucose level, diabetes Types, diabetes classes, diabetes risk factors and to develop a Model that can be used for the prediction.

Adoption of Electronic Monitoring Supervision
Original Research
With respects to employees’ computers activity, do you know who, where, when and what goes on in case you are not monitoring in your organization? It simply takes a solitary unmonitored PC to leave a security hole in your institution. This study intended to recommend use of an electronic monitoring supervision. Data analysed showed that the Faculty and support Staff have different opinion in regard to adoption of electronic monitoring supervision. The research found out among other findings that organizations had faced various problems related to unsupervised use of the internet, staff of the organization did not mind to be monitored and that an electronic monitoring supervision should be adopted. The Research recommends adoption of electronic monitoring supervision and an electronic monitoring supervision framework was developed to aid in the adoption.
