Effectual Non-Intrusive Minimum-Process Synchronous Checkpointing Protocol for Mobile Distributed Systems
Authors: Kumar Raman , Arora Er Jyoti
Published: September 2021

While dealing with Mobile Distributed systems, we come across some issues like: mobility, low bandwidth of wireless channels and dearth of stable storage on mobile nodes, disconnections, inadequate battery power and high failure rate of mobile nodes. Minimum-process coordinated checkpointing is considered an attractive methodology to introduce fault tolerance in mobile systems transparently. In this paper, we propose a non-blocking coordinated global state compilation algorithm for mobile computing systems, which requires only a minimum number of processes to take permanent recovery points. We reduce the communication complexity as compared to the Cao-Singhal algorithm [4], while keeping the number of useless recovery points unchanged. Finally, the paper presents an optimization technique, which significantly reduces the number of useless recovery points at the cost of minor increase in the communication complexity. In coordinated global state compilation, if a single process fails to take its tentative recovery point; all the recovery point effort is aborted. We try to reduce this effort by taking soft recovery points in the first phase at Mobile Hosts.

Public Sector Banks in India : Growth of NPAs and Restructuring Aspects
Authors: Sharma Parmod K , Dhiman Dr. Babli
Published: September 2021

The recent restructuring of Public Sector Banks (PSBs) has generated immense interest in the economic world and the various stakeholders which include investors, depositors, borrowers, the staff working in these banks and the top management of the merging entities. Whereas the depositors look for safety of their monies, the borrowers of merging entities look for new loan products at cheaper rates and faster delivery. The investors will look for resumption of dividend payouts at higher rates and capital appreciation of their investments and the staff looks for better working conditions. The top management will expect more freedom to operate and manage their respective banks more efficiently to grow and earn higher profits. The merger of strong banks was recommended by the first Narasimham Committee in 1991. It has taken almost 28 long years for the Government of India to act on this very critical suggestion of the committee. It is widely believed that this belated step has been initiated due to huge pile of Non Performing Assets (NPAs) with Public Sector Banks and the resultant need for their frequent recapitalization. It is a moral hazard and bad economics for any government to regularly recapitalise PSBs being the major stake holder and having total administrative control of their boards and the top management. To enable PSBs meet the regulatory capital as per international norms and the provisioning requirements enforced by Reserve Bank of India, use of tax payer’s money (collected for economic development of the country) is questionable. However it is made clear by the government that the merger is intended to make PSBs bigger and internationally competitive and to build up their capacity to access capital markets for raising resources. A perspective of growth of NPAs and the resultant impact on the financial  deterioration of PSBs over a time horizon can give answers to the need for restructuring of Public Sector Banks as repeat of such actions by the government may again be necessitated in future. The improvement in financial performance parameters of PSBs over next few years will answer if act of restructuring by the Government of India results  in  internationally strong ‘too big to fail banks’ .

Published: September 2021

In this study, the dye sensitized solar cells (DSSC) were assembled by using natural dyes extracted from roselle and red phoenix as sensitizer coated fluorine-doped tin dioxide substrate (FTO) plate used a counter electrode for nanocrystalline TiO2. We investigated the formation of modified titanium dioxide on dye-sensitized solar cells by simultaneous dyeing with supercritical carbon dioxide fluid. The photoelectrode is made of compact layer and scattering layer. Supercritical carbon dioxide fluid extracted natural dyestuff and synchronous dyed photoelectric. The photoelectric conversion efficiency is the best at the dyeing parameters of 3000 psi, 50 ºC, and 30 minutes. Experimental results show that adding a scattering layer to the compact layer can improve the conversion efficiency. SEM can observe that the polyethylene glycol-added scattering layer has more pore structures in which improves the electrode’s ability to capture sunlight. The conversion efficiency of 0.13% can be obtained by using 9:1 mixed dyes of anthocyanin and chlorophyll. The photoelectric conversion efficiency with the P25/R-type/PEG scattering layer is about 30% higher than that of a single compact layer. Finally the paper proposes a schematic diagram of the dye-sensitized solar cell.

Authors: Rodríguez-Camacho Javier Alejandro , Laguna-Tapia Andrés , Bürger Jens , Landívar-Freire Vania
Published: September 2021

We study international film flows between Bolivia and Latin America to explore the lack of Bolivian content on Netflix and its limited presence in other SVOD platforms. We characterize Netflix originals, third-party content, and recent Bolivian films, and develop a thematic analysis of their synopsis and genre description, completed with the results of a survey on the Bolivian consumption of streaming content. We identify common patterns in Netflix content and show how it differs from the more nationally minded Bolivian cinematic tradition. Our results point to a homogenizing effect SVOD platforms like Netflix might have on film productions.

Authors: Farihatul Islamiyah  , Wibisana Hendrata
Published: September 2021

The coastline is the meeting area between land and sea. In this area, many are influenced by various natural factors and also human activities, where changes that occur such as climatological effects will have an impact on the existing coastline, as well as human activities in the coastal areas will have an impact on the morphological form of the coast including in it the coastline. This study intends to see which mathematical model is most suitable for describing the changes that have occurred and also to measure how much change occurs each year. The method used in this research is spatial analysis using a geographic information system which is used to analyse the Landsat 8 OLI satellite image of the coastline in Bangkalan Madura district, and to measure satellite imagery for a period of 5 years from 2016 to 2020. The results obtained from this study, the polynomial mathematical model is the most suitable model to describe the process of change, where this model provides maximum results with a significant correlation value of 0.8107 for degree 2 and 0.9323 for degree polynomial 3. From this study It can be concluded that Landsat 8 satellite imagery is suitable for data collection on shoreline changes because this satellite image has sufficient resolution to describe in detail the length of the coastline under study. Changes in the coastline that occur are not linear, but throughout the year there are fairly dynamic changes to the shoreline, both in terms of a shoreline retreat or an addition to the coastline.

Published: September 2021

Profitability (ROA) and leverage (DER) have a favorable and material impact on the dividend policies of food and beverage manufacturing companies listed on the IDX. That is, if profitability and leverage continue to improve, so will the dividend policy. In comparison to liquidity (current ratio), which has a positive but negligible effect on the dividend policy of food and beverage manufacturing companies that are listed on the IDX. It may be concluded that while liquidity owned by the company can help enhance dividends, it cannot have a major impact on dividend policy reform. Increased dividend policy will entice investors. Thus, dividend policy can be improved by this research by optimizing asset utilization (ROA) and lowering the danger of debt relief (DER).

Authors: SIRGANCI Gözde , UYUMAZ Gizem
Published: September 2021

In this study, the assumption of the equality of psychological distance between categories of rating scale was tested based on the number of categories and ability distributions. Category parameters were estimated by using generalized partial credit model. The data sets based on the conditions of categories counts and ability distributions were generated by WinGen3 software. The results show that the assumption of the equality of psychological distance between categories of rating scale was not provided in any different ability distribution and different category counts conditions. However, the number of categories influenced the psychological distance between categories, particularly for the 7-point scale. As the number of categories increases, the deviation amount from the conventional category value also increases. Also, endpoints of scales tend to close to middle point of scale when the number of categories is increased. When the converted scale values of the cases with the different ability distribution characteristics were compared, it was seen that the deviation from the conventional category value slightly varied in all the number of categories. However, these differences did not have a systematic order. The degree of violation of the assumption increases as the number of categories increases.

Introduction: Body mass index (BMI) is an important tool for indirect measure of nutritional status of an individual. Overweight and obesity are recognized as “escalating epidemics” affecting both developed and developing countries. An obese (BMI ≥30 kg/m2) individual is more likely to get hypertension, heart disease, diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular disease, gall bladder disease and various types of cancer.
Aim: To assess the prevalence of overweight and obesity among students of Armed Forces Medical College (AFMC) and factors associated with obesity.
Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional survey was conducted in the Department of Anatomy among 101 students ‘AFMC Medical cadets’ category from November 2019 to January 2020.  Data were collected using pretested questionnaire after taking verbal consent from the participants and administrative authority. The height and weight of the cadets were measured and the BMI was calculated.
Results: Among the 101 Medical cadets of Armed Forces Medical College, the mean ± SD height of the students was 1.6.±0.08 m, while the mean weight was 63.6±12.1 kg and the mean BMI 24.0±4.3 kg/m2. Normal BMI was observed in 65.6% students, while 24.2% students were overweight, 10.1% obese and only 2.2% underweight. Overweight and obesity were significantly more in male than female students.
Conclusion: The present study gives an idea about the alarming prevalence of overweight and obesity among the ‘AFMC Medical Cadets’ category. There is a need to create awareness and interest regarding healthy diet and body weight management among this future physician population. Nutritional education on dietary practices and life style change should be built in as supporting educational activity during each calendar year.

Introduction: Spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) comprises 10-15% of all strokes.
Aim: To assess the relationship between the haematoma volume and early surgical outcome of patients with spontaneous primary supratentorial intracerebral hemorrhage by Glasgow Outcome Scale at the 30th post ictus day.
Methods: This prospective study was done from April 2014 to March 2016 in Department of Neurosurgery, Combined Military Hospital (CMH), Dhaka. Forty seven cases were selected by set down criteria. Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score was recorded on admission, haematoma volume was calculated from the CT scan immediately after admission by Modified Ellipsoid Method and the surgical outcome of ICH patients was determined by Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) by face to face interview or by structured interview over phone at their 30th post ictus day. Correlation between the haematoma volume and the surgical outcome of ICH was done by Chi-square test. Again the correlations of three variables (haematoma volume, admission GCS and ICH score) with GOS was compared by Spearman’s correlation coefficient test.
Results: Patients with haematoma volume of 30cc or more were found to have worst outcome.
Conclusion: Relationship between haematoma volume and surgical outcome was found statistically very significant. Risk stratification of the patients with spontaneous primary supratentorial intracerebral hematomas basing on hematoma volume may be used to improve standardization of treatment protocols and clinical research studies.

Authors: ANNAÇ GÖV Sabiha , ERBAY Nilay
Published: September 2021

Safety attitude reflects employee beliefs and feelings about safety policies and measures. Safety attitudes have a significant influence on employee safety behaviour. Flight attendants play a vital role in in-flight safety and services. It is known that most fatal accidents involving commercial aircraft are caused by failures in communication and teamwork among flight attendants. This study aims to find out whether there is a differentiation between men and women in airline flight crew in-flight safety attitudes. In the study, the flight safety attitude questionnaire which was developed by Ford et al. (2014) was used. The questionnaire was applied to 58 volunteer flight attendants in the study. Significant differences between the two categorical variables in-flight safety attitudes were analysed using the Mann-Whitney U test which is one of the non-parametric tests. According to the results of the analysis, it was determined that the flight safety attitudes of men were higher than the flight safety attitudes of women. The research will contribute to the literature as it is a study conducted in Turkey on safety attitudes.

Çalışmada ilin tarım, hayvancılık gibi kırsal alan potansiyelinin incelenmesi bu potansiyelin kırsal kalkınma üzerindeki etkilerinin sınırlı kalmasındaki nedenler vurgulanmış ve çözüm önerileri getirilmiştir. Muş, tarımsal üretim bakımından Türkiye’nin önemli illeri arasında yer almaktadır. Murat Nehri ve Karasu, ilin önemli akarsu kaynakları arasında yer almaktadır. Muş ili 866.833 hektar arazisinin içerisinde en büyük paya 357.342 hektarla (%41,2) tarım arazisi sahiptir. Muş Ovası başta olmak üzere Malazgirt, Bulanık ve Liz ovaları, Muş ilinin ve Türkiye’nin önemli tarım alanları arasında yer almaktadır. Bu alanlarda sulu tarım yaygınlaştırıldığı takdirde ilin, ülke içerisindeki tarımsal üretimdeki yeri ve önemi daha da artacaktır. Bu durum kırsal kalkınmaya ivme kazandıracaktır. İlin sahip olduğu yaylalar ve meralar hayvancılık faaliyetleri için önemli avantaj sağlamaktadır. Nitekim il arazileri içerisinde tarım arazilerinden sonra ikinci sırayı 336.062 hektarla (%38,8) mera alanları, üçüncü sırayı 72.099 hektarla (%8,3) çayır alanları oluşturmaktadır. 2020 yılında hayvan varlığı bakımından ilde birinci sırayı 1.235.552 ile küçükbaş alırken, ikinci sırada ise 336.885 ile büyükbaş gelmektedir. İlin sahip olduğu tarım, hayvancılık vb. kaynaklarından alınan verimin arttırılabilmesi, ilin sahip olduğu potansiyelin kullanılabilmesi için sulama imkânlarının iyileştirilmesi, kooperatifleşmenin güçlendirilmesi, ulusal ve uluslararası ölçekte güçlü pazar ağının geliştirilmesi gerekmektedir. Bu imkânlar geliştirildiği taktirde Muş ilinin tarım ve hayvancılık üretiminde önemli artış meydana gelecektir. Böylece ildeki kırsal kalkınma faaliyetleri ivme kazanacaktır.
Türkiye’de Tek Partili Dönemde Ulusal Kalkınma Hedefi ve Köy Enstitüleri

Bu çalışma, tek parti yönetimin köy enstitülerinden beklentileri ve enstitülerin faaliyetleri kapsamında, enstitü-kalkınma ilişkisini ortaya koymayı amaçlamaktadır. Burada söz konusu olan kalkınma, yerel/bölgesel ya da köye içkin değil bütün bir ülke kapsamında; ulusal kalkınmadır. Bu sebepten çalışmada kalkınma kavramı, bütünsel bir çerçevede ele alınmıştır. Burada bütünsellikle kastedilen hem mekânsal ve sosyolojik anlamda, kır/köy/bölge ölçeğini aşan ulus ölçeğidir hem de ekonomik ve toplumsal anlamda birbirini tamamlayan kalkınma anlayışıdır. Nitekim literatüre özellikle de II. Dünya Savaşı sonrası dönemde ilk olarak ekonomik büyüme ile ilintili bir kavram olarak giren kalkınma kavramı, 1970’lerden sonra ekonomi ile birlikte, toplumsal, siyasal, kültürel ve insani alanları da kapsayacak bir biçimde, tüm bu alanların birbirini desteklediği bütünsel bir çerçevede ele alınmaya başlanmıştır. Çalışmanın üç temel savı vardır bunlardan birincisi; enstitülerin tek parti yönetimi açısından köy öğretmeni yetiştirmekten daha derin anlamlar taşıdığı ikincisi; buradaki derin anlam olarak ifade ettiğimiz kavramın kalkınma kavramına denk düştüğü üçüncüsü; bu kalkınmanın ölçeğinin bütün bir ulus olduğudur. Çalışmanın kapsamı enstitülerin kurulduğu 1940 yılı ile çok partili hayata geçişin geçekleştiği 1945 yılları arasıdır. Çünkü çok partili siyasal hayata geçişin ardından siyasette ortaya çıkan yeni dengelerle birlikte, tek parti yönetiminin enstitülerden beklentileri ve buna paralel olarak da enstitülerin kalkınma hedefi bir dönüşüm geçirmiştir. Çalışma nitel araştırma yöntemine göre; “kalkınma kavramı”, “köy enstitüleri pratiği” ve “ulusal kalkınmanın aracı olarak köy enstitüleri” konulu üç bölüm halinde kurgulanmıştır.

Vekâlet Teorisi ve Oyun Teorisinde ifade edildiği şekilde, finansal etkileşim içerisinde bulunan taraflar arasındaki asimetrik bilgi; avantajlı tarafın, bu avantajı kullanarak çıkar mücadelesi vermesine ve bunun sonucunda fırsatçı eğilimlerde bulunmasına sebep olmaktadır. Vekâlet teorisinin temel varsayımlarından olan ve sınırlı rasyonellik ilkesi çerçevesinde içsel bir değişken olarak görülen fırsatçılık kavramı, bireysel çıkarların sözleşmenin karşı tarafı aleyhinde gözetilerek ve genellikle sözleşmede bulunan boşlukları kullanarak ortaya çıkmaktadır. Bu durum asil-vekil arasında bir güven ve belirsizlik sorununa yol açmakta; bunun yanı sıra görevi kötüye kullanma, dolandırıcılık gibi hileli davranışlar neticesinde piyasa mekanizmasını etkileyebilmektedir. Bu çalışmada fırsatçılık kavramı, temel mikro iktisadi analiz yöntemlerinden vekâlet teorisi ve oyun teorisi perspektifinde incelenmiş; yapılan ilişkilendirmeler doğrultusunda öneriler sunulmuştur. Yapılan çalışma ile vekâlet fırsatçılığının oyun teorisi çerçevesinde açıklanabildiği görülmüştür. Literatürde henüz bu iki teoriyi birlikte inceleyen bir ölçek bulunmamaktadır. Ancak çeşitli sektörlerde ortaya çıkan vekâlet fırsatçılığı sorunlarının oyun teorisi ile çözümlenebileceği sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Analiz araçları ve modelleme alt yapısı ile oyun teorisinin farklı senaryoların olası sonuçlarını karşılaştırarak optimal stratejileri belirleme fırsatı tanıması, vekalet fırsatçılığı perspektifinden yönetici ve stratejistleri önemli derecede öngörü sağlayabilecektir.

: Survivability of animals is correlated with their fecundity and fertility success. Widespread use of
enormous organic and inorganic ingredients as pesticides, molluscicides and insecticides contaminate
ecosystems leading to hazardous effects on the life cycle of animals, their biological processes and reproduction.
Present work aimed for toxicity assessment of boric acid against some selected molluscan species through
evaluation of their mortality by determination of LC50. For toxicity assessment three different molluscan species
were used. By applying standard procedure, LC50 was estimated at different concentrations of boric acid for
different exposure periods. This study indicated that freshwater snail Bellamya bengalensis was more sensitive
for boric acid, whereas slug, Semperula maculate was least sensitive against boric acid after different period of
exposure.

Published: September 2021

This review deals with the species diversity of the orb-weaving spiders (Araneidae: Araneae:
Arachnida) in different states of India and the union territories. A total of 256 species belonging to 49 genera of
Araneidae were recorded in all states and the union territories of India except for Dadra & Nagar Haveli and
Daman & Diu, out of which 99 species (38.4%) were strictly endemic. Two genera of orb-weaver spiders are
highly speciose, e.g. Araneus Clerck, 1757 (39 species) and Neoscona Simon, 1864 (36 species). About 119 species
of these orb-weaver spiders were recorded from Maharashtra followed by 91 species from West Bengal, 81
species from Kerala, 79 species from Karnataka, 75 species from Gujarat, 71 species from Tamil Nadu, 65 species
from Assam, 63 species from Uttar Pradesh, 58 species from Uttarakhand, 57 species from Madhya Pradesh, 47
species each from Odisha and Jammu and Kashmir, 41 species from Meghalaya, 34 species from Chhattisgarh, 32
species from Goa, 31 species from Rajasthan, 29 species from Andaman and Nicobar Islands, 27 species from
Andhra Pradesh, 24 species from Sikkim, 21 species each from Arunachal Pradesh, Mizoram and Tripura, and
less than 20 species were recorded from other states and union territories. Seven species are distributed in more
than 20 states and union territories, viz. Argiope pulchella Thorell, 1881 (23 states, 3 union territories); Nephila
pilipes (Fabricius, 1793) (24 states, 2 union territory); Neoscona mukerjei Tikader, 1980 (23 states, 1 union
territory); Neoscona theisi (Walckenaer, 1837) (21 states, 3 union territories); Araneus mitificus (Simon, 1886)
(21 states, 3 union territories); Argiope aemula (Walckenaer, 1837) (21 states, 2 union territories) and Eriovixia
excelsa (Simon, 1889) (20 states, 2 union territories). Several species of Araneidae reported from India are
recorded only from one state or from the type locality. Hence, intensive and extensive faunistic surveys for these
spiders are required throughou
Occurrence and Redescription of Some Common Nematodes on Mostly Grown Vegetables in Kashmir Valley, India
Authors: Hassan Sheikh Javaid
Published: September 2021

The present work embodies findings of a survey done during the period 2018- 2020 to find out
biodiversity of tylenchid nematodes parasitic on some mostly grown vegetables of Kashmir valley. Four species of
nematodes belonging to the order Tylenchida Thorne, 1949 were found to be enormously prevalent and are
described herein with alterations from the original probably because of habitat change. Spinacia oleracea (Spinach)
and Allium cepa (Onion) were taken for the study. Merlinius microdorus (Geraert, 1966) Siddiqui, 1970; Boleodorus
cylindricus Dhanachand, Renubala and Anandi, 1993; Pratylenchus sativus Kaul, 1985 and Helicotylenchus
graminophilus Fotedar and Mahajan, 1974 were met with the varied intensity on these hosts. The morphological
variations are significantly noted under remarks with the individual species under observations.
Assessment of Toxicity of Coragen, an Insecticide, on Aquatic Ecosystem Using Hydra as a Model
Authors: Sachin Borgave Seema
Published: September 2021

Overuse of insecticides, without analyzing their harmful effects, can cause serious environmental issues.
Coragen is a commonly used insecticide due to its broad range activity. In spite of enormous use, there are hardly
any reports on the effects of coragen on non-target aquatic species and thus the environmental risk of coragen to
aquatic ecosystem is underestimated. The present study was carried out to evaluate the potential risk of coragen on
the water bodies and the life therein using hy dra, a fresh water simple diploblastic invertebrate, as the model
system. Coragen was found to reduce the life expectancy of hydra along with the reduced ability to regenerate at
various tried doses. The present study thus suggests precocious use of coragen due to its harmful effects on aquatic
animals at v ery low concentrations also. The continued overuse of coragen may disturb the aquatic ecosystems at a
large scale in long run.
