Mediating Role of Coping Strategies between Teacher’s Stress and Job Related Outcomes

The study intended to examine the mediating role of coping styles between teacher’s stress and job related outcomes including job performance and satisfaction. Total sample of 200 teachers was collected from different universities of Pakistan. Four scales were used from data collection including Teacher’s Stress Inventory, Brief COPE, Teacher’s Performance Scale and Teacher’s Satisfaction Scale. Mediation analysis explained that only problem-focused coping has direct and indirect effect on job performance and satisfaction of teachers. The remaining coping strategies including emotions-focused and dysfunctional avoidance were not proven effective in enhancing job performance and satisfaction of teachers. The study shared empirical insights regarding the use of problem-focused coping style at the times of stress in the teaching profession.
Prevalanace of MDR-Tuberculosis in A Tertiary Care Hospital in Haryana

Introduction: Drug resistant TB is on rise in world and India, and the most common risk factor for MDR TB is previous treatment history that is failure, relapse, default cases. This study was undertaken in our hospital to determine prevalence of MDR TB in retreatment cases. Material and Methods: This prospective observational study was conducted in MMIMSR Haryana, which included 100 Category II pulmonary TB patients who satisfied the inclusion criteria. Sputum samples of these patients were tested for drug resistance using L.P.A. Results were analyzed and the prevalence of MDR calculated. Then MDR patients were compared with the Non MDR ones with reference to age, gender, habits, previous treatment history, clinical features, and drug susceptibility pattern. Results: The prevalence of MDR in Cat II patients was found to be 20%, statistically significant association was seen between following failure cases and MDR TB, alcohol abuse and MDR TB, alcohol+smoking and MDR TB, Diabetes mellitus and MDR TB. Only a single case of Isoniazid mono resistance was found, no case of Rifampicin mono resistance was found. Conclusion: The prevalence of MDR is high and fast increasing in retreatment cases and since these patients are at higher risk of morbidity, mortality and risk for infecting others with MDR strains, immediate measures for early diagnosis and proper treatment should be instituted and the patients should be counseled appropriately regarding compliance to treatment. We also stress on need of more studies which would establish risk factors of MDR TB in India.
Criteria for Assessing the Reproductive Potential of Traditional Varieties of Winter Soft Wheat and the Possibility of Their Use in the Selection Process

The article considers the achieved productive potential of the winter soft wheat ear based on traditional varieties of this crop Belokoloska, Nemerchanskaya, Sedouska, Saksonka No. 354, Traditional winter No. 346, Hybrid No. 22417 cultivated on the Krasnodar Territory till 1928. The paper studies the processes of the reproductive potential achievement on the basis of counting the number of flowers embedded in the ear at the 6th stage of organogenesis to the number of grains at the 12th stage of organogenesis. Preselective evaluation was carried out for the features characterizing the reproductive potential of varieties. The influence of environmental factors was studied, and the variability of the reproductive potential caused by the artificial decrease in plant height due to the use of retardant was estimated. It was established that the completeness of the development of the upper spikes testified to the balance of the behavior of morphogenetic processes of the ear development as a whole, and this indicator might also be used to assess the genotype potential productivity in the given ecological conditions of cultivation.

Aerodynamic Admittance Function, Aerodynamic Weighting Function, Quasi-steady Approach, Spectral Approach, Crosswind, Unsteady Force, Spectra

This study compares two methods for calculating the unsteady aerodynamic side force on a high speed train running in a turbulent crosswind at discrete points along a straight track: the method of aerodynamic weighting function, and that of the quasi-steady theory. Both methods are concerned with time series estimation of aerodynamic loading based on experimentally measured crosswind data. By vary ing the mean wind speed, the train speed, and the distance between the simulation points it is shown that the aerodynamic weighting function approach may be more appropriate for estimat ing the unsteady force on a high speed train. The advantage of the weighting function is consideration for the loss of turbulent velocity cross-correlations over the surface of the vehicle in contrast to the quasi-steady approach.

Effective Test Case Prioritization using Combination of Diagnosis Matrix & Back Propagation Network

The fault localization is one of the time consuming activities in program debugging, so developers are locating faulty code by ranking program statements according to their likelihood of being faulty. A variety of fault localization techniques utilizing different types of ranking functions have been proposed in the past. So the programmer identifies those diagnosis strategies for a long time. After analyzing various information, it failed to prioritize the test cases so it needs an efficient fault localization, which will diagnosis the localization and prioritize the faults according to its priority. There are several case studies, which improves the high level of diagnosis but in this paper we provide it’s reducing testing effort, and provide priority accuracy as far as possible and compared it to the efficiency of two (Back propagation Network & diagnosis matrix) fault localization techniques. The result shows that our approach is highly effective, as we can locate more than 90% of the faults by examining the top 20% of the statements in the ranking list and discuss some of the key issues and concerns that are relevant to fault localization.

A Duplication Based List Scheduling Genetic Algorithm for Scheduling Task on Parallel Processors

1. ABSTRACT Task Scheduling is one of the most challenging NP-complete problems in parallel and distributed computing systems. In general scheduling algorithms with task duplication are of better performance than those without duplication, for fine grain tasks graphs and for networks with high communication latencies [1, 2]. This paper presents an efficient and effective way to allocate tasks of an application in the Computing environment. Generally in list based static scheduling where computation time and communication time are known a-priori. First tasks are prioritized and then the processors that minimize the cost function are assigned to the appropriate tasks. Duplication based scheduling is another category of static scheduling. In this category communication costs among the processors are avoided by duplicating the tasks on same processor. This paper presents a duplication based list scheduling that overwhelms the existing scheduling algorithms in both the categories.
Corporate Governance Compliance Practices of Indian Companies

Recent financial scandals associated to accounting and other frauds allegedly blamed to top company managers (e.g. Enron, Worldcom, Paramalt, Satyam) have brought into public light the recurring question of whether companies are managed on the best interests of shareholders and other company stakeholders such as workers, creditors and the general community. The paper studies compliance of Corporate Governance requirements by Indian Companies. A model is developed to calculate the Corporate Governance Score of companies and then it is related to company attributes like size, profitability, leverage, foreign ownership etc. No significant correlation exists between Corporate Governance and company Characterists however average compliance by Indian Companies has been satisfactory. Factor analysis of major sub-parameters of Corporate Governance Score, namely Composition of Board, Audit Committee, Number of Board Meetings and Remuneration Committee is done. Two factors namely Strength of Committee and Competency level of Board are identified as important factors.

Cost Structures in Organizations: A Strategic Paradox

Cost-cutting has been a common means in efforts to improve a firm’s ‘bottom-line’ during times of declining revenues, despite the evidence that cost-cutting has generally produced mixed results on profitability. In this paper, cost structures in firms are conceptualized as being a strategic paradox created by concurrent opposing forces which necessitate the firm to give consideration to simultaneously increasing and decreasing the cost structure. These pressures are exp lored v ia a classification of cost-programs to address alternative cost-pressures faced by firms.
Comparison of DFT and Wavelet based Image Modification Techniques

-This research is a detail study of minor project entitled, “Comparison between DFT Based and WAVELETs Based Image Modification Techniques”. It is based on estimation and removal of distorsion in the Modified images. In the minor project comparison was done between DFT based JPEG and WAVELETs based JPEG 2000 modification techniques on the basis of corresponding outputs like Image Quality, Modification Ratio, MSE and PSNR etc. When the modified data/image is transmitted via a transmission channel then distorsion is added to it and distorts the image. So, distorsion estimation and removal is one of the important aspect associated with the modified data, otherwise the modified data is worthless. Due to distorsion, the modified image is extremely distorted which needs to be estimated and removed for image quality assessment, restoration and enhancement. Thus, distorsion is unavoidable during visual data acquisition, processing and transmission and exhibit as the random variation of brightness or color in images and should be removed.

An Expert System to Suspect Chronic Kidney Disease

—Chronic Kidney Disease is one of the major health problems throughout the world. Every year large number of people loses their lives because of this disease. According to statistics, many of these patients die of Chronic Kidney Disease because the disease is not suspected in time. Therefore, suspicion of Chronic Kidney Disease plays a vital role to save many lives. But the suspicion of Chronic Kidney Disease is hampered due to some uncertainties. However, this paper represents an expert system that suspects Chronic Kidney Disease from the observation of signs and symptoms of a patient. The histories of the patients are also considered in this purpose. Belief Rule-Based Inference Methodology Using Evidential Reasoning Approach (RIMER) is used to develop the expert system. This system handles uncertainties that come from signs, symptoms and clinical domain knowledge. Real patients’ data, collected from Chittagong Medical College & Hospital, are used to construct the knowledge base. The physician’s consultation is also considered in this case. The system is tested over 95 patients and it has been observed that the system is more efficient in suspicion of Chronic Kidney Disease than the manual system .
Study of Uncertainty Factors Influenced in Software Phases Effecting in Cost Estimation

— The IT industry has certain challenges for quality management. In order to meet business and organisational objectives and deliver quality software, it is essential to improve the organisational practices, and processes that produce the software. Software process improvement is both possible and essential. A key to successful software process improvement is making a step-by-step improvement effort, which gradually evolves, into a paradigm shift in the way the organisation does business. The processes and practices complement each other for improvement and both require human effort from everyone in the organisation. Software project risk management is crucial for the software development projects. It is used for project planning and control purposes during the project execution. To success in managing a software project, project manager needs to understand the nature of software risks. The estimation of the software cost remains one of the most challenging problems in software engineering; as a preliminary estimate of cost includes many elements of uncertainty. All projects have some uncertainties. Each project will have a different capacity for uncertainty.

A Point-of-Care Test for Anti-Transglutaminase (tTG2A) IgA, IgG, IgM Antibodies (Celiac Quick Test®) Validated in Diagnosis of Incident Celiac Disease (CD) in Pediatric Patients

Background: Testing for tTG2A (tissue transglutaminase 2A) in serum has become a standard in diagnosis and follow-up of celiac disease (CD). To avoid unnecessary delays in diagnostic laboratories, a series of commercial point-of-care (POC) tests for tTG2A have been developed. Objective: To assess the performance of a novel POC test measuring IgA-, IgGand IgM antibodies to tTG2A (Celiac Quick Test®, Biohit Oyj, Helsinki) (CDQT) in pediatric patients who underwent full diagnostic setup for suspected incident CD. Study Design and Methods: The cohort comprises 21 children who completed the diagnostic setup for incident CD because of protean clinical symptoms. All 21 subjects were screened for total IgA and tTG2A IgA antibodies by a serum ELISA test (Diametra Diagnostics Srl, Milan, Italy) as a reference to CDQT. All ELISA-positive, all IgA-deficient children as well as those with persistent clinical suspicion underwent upper gastrointestinal endoscopy with small bowel biopsies. Results: After complete diagnostic setup, CD was confirmed in 9/21 children and excluded in 11, one case remaining inconclusive because of no histological signs of CD. Clinical symptoms were not helpful in distinguishing CD from non-CD patients. CDQT was 89% sensitive and 100% specific for CD, while the ELISA test was 100% sensitive but only 83% specific, with the respective AUC (area under ROC) of 0.944 and 0.917 (p = 0.752). Conclusions: These results confirm the performance of CDQT reported in a larger series of pediatric CD patients on gluten-free diet (GFD). The 100% specificity (with no false positive results) makes CDQT an excellent candidate POC test for population-based screening for CD, where high PPV is an advantage.
