Efficient Solid Waste Management with the aid of Information Technology
Contribution to knowledge:
The study modelled a decision system for practical routing and optimization of solid waste within a locality. It incorporated and modelled experts’ opinions into the efficient management of solid waste within Nigeria. The study also proposed that Information Technology (its concepts and algorithm) should be applied as an aid for the efficient management of solid waste. This is because Information Technology can be used as an effective decision support system/tool that incorporates the ideas, opinions and experience of various experts and fields of study with ease, higher degree of precision and adaptability into the efficient management of solid waste.
