Background: Accurate classification of brain tumors in medical images is vital for effective diagnosis and treatment planning, which improves the patient’s survival rate. In this paper, we investigate the application of Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) as a powerful tool for enhancing diagnostic accuracy using a Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) dataset. Method: This study investigates the application of CNNs for brain tumor classification using a dataset of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) with a resolution of 200 × 200 × 1. The dataset is pre-processed and categorized into three types of tumors: Glioma, Meningioma, and Pituitary. The CNN models, including the Classic layer architecture and the ResNet50 architecture, are trained and evaluated using an 80:20 training-testing split. Results: The results reveal that both architectures accurately classify brain tumors. Classic layer architecture achieves an accuracy of 94.55%, while the ResNet50 architecture surpasses it with an accuracy of 99.88%. Compared to previous studies and 99.34%, our approach offers higher precision and reliability, demonstrating the effectiveness of ResNet50 in capturing complex features. Conclusions: The study concludes that CNNs, particularly the ResNet50 architecture, exhibit effectiveness in classifying brain tumors and hold significant potential in aiding medical professionals in accurate diagnosis and treatment planning. These advancements aim to further enhance the performance and practicality of CNN-based brain tumor classification systems, ultimately benefiting healthcare professionals and patients. For future research, exploring transfer learning techniques could be beneficial. By leveraging pre-trained models on large-scale datasets, researchers can utilize knowledge from other domains to improve brain tumor classification tasks, particularly in scenarios with limited annotated data.

In today’s complex global environments, it is highly challenging to achieve effective healthcare management. The critical challenges faced by healthcare management are being met by the revolution of m-health where mobile cloud computing plays a major role. The taxonomy of mobile computing comprises operational aspects, end-user issues, and service quality and mobility management. The use of smartphone technologies and applications has become a highly significant approach to improving healthcare management. Mobile health services such as mobile pathology, mobile neurosurgery, cancer treatment, and behavioral/psychological disorders are gaining significance where smartphone applications are being used. Portability, flexibility, and convenience are major characteristics of mobile computing that have helped patients and doctors to develop better relationships through coordination and communication. The relationship between smartphone technologies and applications and healthcare management can be understood in several broad aspects. This article aims to analyze the current and future implications of these technologies on healthcare and disease management systems.

One way of disseminating a lecture’s slide presentation to students is by make it available online. Student will download it, and bring it to the class. The interaction between lecturer and students regarding the topic presented in the slides will happen in the class. However, time in the class is limited and lecturers need to get feedbacks from the student on the topic being taught. Students can meet lecturer after the class but some have a lot of credits and could not manage to do so. There is need to provide a way that discussing made easy on the subject topic specifically on the handout slides. One way to do this is by providing an online system that are easily accessible and convenience for both parties. This paper proposes the use of Facebook to enhance the distributed interactive learning among the students. Result from survey shows that both lecturers and students accepting the ideas of this learning style.
