Abstract


This research work studies the performance of the internet services of institution of higher learning in Nigeria. Data was collated from Lagos State University of Science and Technology (LASUSTECH) as case study of this research work. The problem of Internet Bandwidth optimization in the institution of higher learning in Nigeria was extensively addressed in this paper. The operation of the Link-Load balancer which provides an efficient cost-effective and easy-to-use solution to maximize utilization and availability of Internet access is discussed. In this research work, the Lagrange’s method of interpolation was used to predict effective internet data bandwidth for significantly increasing number of internet users. The linear Lagrange’s interpolation model (LILAGRINT model) was proposed for LASUSTECH.  The predictions allow us to view the effective internet data bandwidth with respect to the corresponding acceptable number of internet users as the number of user’s increases. The integrity of the model was examined, verified and validated at the ICT department of the institution. The LILAGRINT model was integrated into the management of ICT and tested. The result showed that the proposed LILAGRINT model proved to be highly effective and innovative in the area of internet data bandwidth predictability.
