The data is the most valuable asset of any organization, it resides data in the database system that is used to store data of every running application. So the security of database is very important. One of the most widely used types of a database is Distributed Database which has the capabilities of both a relational database and distributed network architecture. Hence the security of database is of the prime concern and at the same time, it is very tough to ensure, because different types of attackers and hackers are trying everything to compromise the distributed database security. Various researches are done to preserve the distributed database security but some security problems are still unresolved. In this paper, we propose the use of Multi-scope based authentication and Enhanced Distributed firewall by which the integrity and security of distributed database can be achieved.

In recent years it has been observed that the federal road safety commission FRSC has been having some challenges on how to handle traffic rule and traffic offences committed by road users both commercial and private. Based on the in ability of the FRSC to handle these problems this paper critically looked into the behavioural pattern of the drivers towards traffic rules and offences committed and found that there was a great need for the Organisation to have a good database, that will be able to keep records of traffic offences and offenders, which can be called upon at any time on reference basis. The aim of this study is to create a distributed Federal Road Safety commission traffic offence system that can access data from any state of the Federation. The system consists of a relational database of FRSC variables which could be shared by the various States and Local Government Areas in the country. Each of the local government area will form a website, and the database will be hosted by the server at the Federal Road Safety Commission Head Quarters at Abuja and at the various state capital. . All LGAs will access the database via a distributed network. The client/server distributed network architecture is used in the design and implementation of the system. The system is capable of monitoring all road offences and traffic offenders records at all levelsfrom  any part of the country and generation of reports concerning offenders and also access information from the local government at all times.

Distributed database management systems manage a huge amount of data as well as large and increasingly growing number of users through different types of queries. Therefore, efficient methods for accessing these data volumes will be required to provide a high and an acceptable level of system performance.  Data in these systems are varying in terms of types from texts to images, audios and videos that must be available through an optimized level of replication. Distributed database systems have many parameters like data distribution degree, operation mode and the number of sites and replication. These parameters have played a major role in any performance evaluation study. This paper investigates the main parameters that may affect the system performance, which may help with configuring the distributed database system for enhancing the overall system performance.

COVID-19 has been a great challenge for humanity since the year 2020. The whole world has made a huge effort to find an effective vaccine in order to save those not yet infected. The alternative solution is early diagnosis, carried out through real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) tests or thorax Computer Tomography (CT) scan images. Deep learning algorithms, specifically convolutional neural networks, represent a methodology for image analysis. They optimize the classification design task, which is essential for an automatic approach with different types of images, including medical. In this paper, we adopt a pretrained deep convolutional neural network architecture in order to diagnose COVID-19 disease from CT images. Our idea is inspired by what the whole of humanity is achieving, as the set of multiple contributions is better than any single one for the fight against the pandemic. First, we adapt, and subsequently retrain for our assumption, some neural architectures that have been adopted in other application domains. Secondly, we combine the knowledge extracted from images by the neural architectures in an ensemble classification context. Our experimental phase is performed on a CT image dataset, and the results obtained show the effectiveness of the proposed approach with respect to the state-of-the-art competitors.
