Agrometeorology plays an important role in Precision Agriculture for resource management and effects both the quality and quantity of agriculture products. The existing solutions for monitoring weather parameters in agrometeorology are highly global and costly. These solutions are most of the time are inaccessible to the common man or farmers and require frequent physical visits to the field for obtaining information. But in agriculture monitoring highly localized weather condition is required because the weather conditions applicable farm land of one city may not be as such for a farmer of small rural. Weather conditions such as wind speed, wind direction, rainfall, solar radiation, atmospheric pressure, air particle level humidity and temperature measurement plays an important role in different fields like Agriculture, Science, Engineering and Technology. The proposed work provides an optimal solution for monitoring the weather conditions at extremely local level with low cost, compact Internet of Things (IoT) based system. In this paper the design of the system is presented with the use of NodeMCU for realizing the low-cost solution. This low-cost weather station is a product equipped with sensors to measure atmospheric conditions like temperature, humidity, wind speed, wind direction which has predominant effect in agriculture. With embedded IoT connectivity, the proposed weather station is capable to upload the information to IoT cloud ad can be used for further analysis.The user can access the information uploaded by the system anywhere from the world with the help on mobile app or web link on laptop/desktop. The “Low cost Compact IoT enabled Weather Station” does not have any display which make the proposed system more power efficient with overall current rating of about only 80mA to 90mA.

Sorting of images has been a challenge in Machine Learning Algorithms over the years. Various algorithms have been proposed to sort an image but none of them are able to sort the image clearly. The drawback of the existing systems is that the sorted image is not clearly identified. So, to overcome this drawback we have proposed a novel approach to sort the children of a tree and match them with the existing designs. The images will be sorted on the basis of the class of the image. The images are taken from the image and manual binning of those images are done. Then the images are trained and tested. GLCM feature is extracted from the trained and tested images which are later on fed to the SVM classifier. The classification of image is then done with the help of SVM classifier. Around 7000 images are trained on SVM and used for classification. More than 300 different classes have been created in the database for comparison. Real-time images of child items are captured and fed to the SVM for classifying. The main application of this image is the use in distinguishing the designs in the ornaments. The various parts of the ornaments can be differentiated clearly. Thus, the proposed method is precise as compared to the existing methods.

The complexity of a power system operating with transient stability/security constraints increases with increased interconnection of power transmission networks. Many of the power system’s secure operations are affected with the voltage/transient instability problems. Thereby, the modern power systems have considered solving optimal power flow (OPF) problems using voltage/transient stability constraints as a tedious and challenging task. Algebraic and differential equations of the voltage/stability constraints are included in non-linear optimal power flow optimization problems. In this work, the OPF problems with voltage/stability constraints are solved using a newly developed reliable and robust technique. Moreover, the impact of a FACTS device such as STATCOM device was investigated to test its impact in the enhancement of power system performance. An adaptive unified differential evolution (AuDE) technique is proposed to search in the non-convex and nonlinear problems to obtain the global optimal solutions. Compared to other existing methods and basic DE, the proposed AuDE algorithm has achieved better results under simulation conditions. The power system’s performance is considerably enhanced with STATCOM device. Efficiency of the proposed method in solving the transient and security constrained power systems for optimal operations were demonstrated using the numerical results obtained from IEEE 39-bus, 10-generator system and IEEE 30-bus, 6-generator system. Due to page limitation only 30-bus systems results are presented.

Nowadays, the advancement in the field of information technology has witnessed stupendous growth in various industries, especially the medical imaging technologies in the healthcare industry. However, these advancements in the different technologies have not only made the data bigger but also a bit difficult to process and handle it. Though, these advancements may have resulted in huge amount of unnecessary data, it still cannot be considered as a major problem in today’s world as nowadays, the various advancements in technologies such as Big Data Analytics, Cloud Computing and several others, have made it really easy and effortless for storing huge amount of datasets and handling them. One of the boon that the advancement in technology has given to the world in the field of healthcare industry is the evolution of the scanning machines which can be used for the diagnosis of different diseases and to assemble the conclusions in the form of various medical reports for different scans such as ECG (Electrocardiogram), MRI(Magnetic Resonance Imaging) Brain scans, Ultrasounds, X-Rays, CT-Scanners and much more. But, the interesting part here is that though these scanning machines have their own advantages, one of the main disadvantages of them is that the efficiency of the results produced by them are yet to be known when comparing their performance’s to justify their enormous costs. Therefore, in the paper, the key challenges and various methodologies are being investigated in the healthcare industry with prime focus on comparing the scanning machines such as ECG, MRI, and Ultrasoundetc. by using Big Data Analytics. The various manufacturers of the scanning devices which are used by the hospitals or diagnostic centers have already fixed their price to such a high level that, even the hospitals have to spend lots of money to buy those machines and install them. Therefore, as a management side it becomes difficult to cope up with the performance related cost effectiveness of machines, which even shatters the trust of patients related to technical issues with a particular hospital. The prime aim is to focus on the precise implementation, performance efficiency and cost effectiveness of all the medical scans. The idea can also be implemented in improving theperformance along with the cost effectiveness of machines and devices other than the medical industry as well.

Inclusion of Distributed Generation in the power system facilitates many features like voltage profile correction, improvement of power factor, network reliability, loadability enhancement that improve the performance of the system. Vast increase in the energy requirements to cope up with emerging trends in the community, all types of loads like residential, commercial, Industrial etc demands network up gradation. The urgency of network restructuring may be differed by an appropriate deployment of Distributed Generation in the system. Whereas, it is found that improper allocation of DGs may also degrade the system performance due to increased power losses, declined voltage profile etc. Thus, now a day’s network operators are paying wide attention towards appropriate DG allocation. This paper introduces a Modified Transmission Parameters Method considering the loss minimization as a constraint, for Siting and Sizing the Distributed Generator (DG) for installation in Distribution System based on Two Port Transmission Equations. It demonstrates an implication of Distributed Generator in power system to attain the enhanced system loadability. It also analyses the number of buses swept up from the competition of being an optimal location for DG allocation. Thus, it can be said that the proposed method facilitates enhanced ability of the system to sustain load expansion without network upgrades along with evaluation reduced candidate locations for DG installation called as ‘Inapt Locations’.

The recognition of real-world objects demands the recognition and characterization of digital image samples. Automated methods for the detection and recognition of entity types have many significant commercial and industrial applications. While deep convolution neural networks (CNN) and machine learning (ML) concepts have contributed to the classification of globe items, they cannot fully scale the reliance of powerful GPUs to classify the key attributes of images. By using a Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) we tend to resolve the issue arisen in the previous systems. In particular, a hybrid approach using R-CNN and RNN has been proposed that improve the accuracy of object recognition and learn structured image attributes and begin image analysis. Specifically, we applied the transfer learning approach to pass the load parameters which were pre-trained on the Image web dataset to the RNN portion and follow a custom loss feature for the model to train and test more rapidly with precise weight parameters. Experimental results show that in comparison to CNN models like Resent, origin V3, etc., our proposed model achieved improved accuracy in categorizing universe pictures.

In highly populated countries like India, there is queue for almost all services and this is true for health care services too. It is very difficult to check the occupancy of emergency wards in hospitals and availability of blood bank due to infrastructure disconnectivity. There is a considerable delay in placing the emergency cases to bed and blood availability like accidents. This delay must be reduced to save lives. Internet of Things (IoT) is the emerging technology which helps in device connectivity. In this work, an emergency management solution for bed and blood booking is implemented using IoT with better integration between hospitals, blood banks and patients.

AdHoc networks are self-sustained infrastructure less networks which survives on mutual cooperation by sharing resources. To share the resources as services it is important to be able to advertise available services and discover the required services. Service discovery that is performed in application layer can be benefitted when performed at network layer since it reduces the control message. Therefore the message format of AODV protocol was extended to include service discovery and service advertisements. We propose a method to extend the hello messages of AODV protocol further to include the service information available with the 2-Hop neighbors. To reduce the storage overhead every node would only store the availability of a particular service. Thereby to access the services available at a 2- hop distance the process of service discovery is not required only a uncast message can be sent. This approach has been able to reduce the service acquisition latenc.y

When a process of teaching and learning activities by teachers is boring and uninteresting for students, so long as it can be ascertained that the message of values, morals, and knowledge from these lessons is difficult for students to understand and required a teaching method in the form of computer-based learning applications the game. Management of learning must describe efforts to plan or control teaching activities using teaching concepts and principles so that the objectives of teaching and learning activities are achieved more effectively, efficiently and productively and must be initiated from choosing strategies and plans, of course ending with assessment and can be used as consideration make further teaching improvements. Learning Batak Toba script by using the game model will increase students' enthusiasm and not be bored and train their memory to memorize or remember Batak Toba script and connect them to latin script because the questions that appear will never be the same and keep changing because they are randomized with linear congruent method (LCM). This learning model will add to the existing learning model in the form of multimedia-based applications.

the pharmaceutical company is one of the companies which has an important role and has several activities such as manufacturing, distribution and main services to the community. This activity is controlled by the information systems department. Making information systems is needed to help pharmaceutical companies manage important data, so important data or less important data will be paperless. The design of this information system uses the waterfall method, where the system and design are very well designed before coding and testing operations are carried out. Then the data is stored using a database. Before doing a good design, research using business analysis, user needs, etc. After this information system is finished, the testing method uses blackbox. Testing methods are an important element of quality assurance that represents a fundamental review of specifications, design and coding. This testing technique also focuses on the software information domain. This pharmaceutical company information system was created to support the performance of a company. Making using a waterfall and testing using a blackbox, is expected to increase visability and meet the requirements of a software. The results of testing the device aims to look for errors in the category of functions that are not correct, the interface is not good or access from the database. Some parts are tested namely the home interface, user login, etc. Research shows that the waterfall method can be effectively used in making website-based information systems. After that the blackbox test shows if all the test components have been tested can be used very well

For high speed communication applications; jitter, phase noise and power consumption are most critical parameters required to be considered for PLL designs. A sub harmonically injection locking concept can be used in PLL to reduce jitter and phase noise. Such design is very effective for high frequency applications. This article presents similar design for 7.5-GHz Phase locked loop in 180 nm CMOS technology. The measured phase noise of the proposed PLL with self aligned injection at 1 MHz offset is 121.14 dBc/Hz and rms jitter is 110 fs. The total dc power consumption is 13.99 mW. To support the claim process variation with design corner analysis using random variations are carried out.

Mammography is an operative procedure for early detection of cancer present in breast. However, the pathological changes of the breast are difficult to interpret from low contrast mammograms. This research proposes a method to enhance the contrast of the mammogram that uses Non-subsampled contourlet transform (NSCT) based edge information. Instead of a directional filter bank in the conventional NSCT structure, this paper uses multiscale non-separable edge filters. These edge filters outputs intrinsic edge structure information based on simplified hyperbolic tangent function applied with two polarized schemes. This edge information further used to improve the local contrast. Adaptive histogram equalization (AHE) also used to increase the overall contrast of mammogram. Improved detection of microcalcification (MC) from enhanced mammogram images shows the success of this algorithm. This method has better enhancement measure (EME) than AHE and unsharp based mammogram enhancement method.
