In this paper, simulated annealing (SA), a heuristic algorithm is used to tune PID based Internal Model Control (IMC) for large and small / systems. PID tuning is effected with SA optimizer. The IMC technique requires tuning of a single parameter, filter constant which in turn is used to find the PID controller parameters: proportional gain, reset time and derivative time. The proposed method uses SA for tuning the filter constant. The proposed method is verified in systems with different / ratio.

Now-a-days Phaselet Transform based distance relaying scheme is being proposed in the literature for high speed relaying in high voltage lines to obtain response times less than one quarter cycle. Phaselets are gaining importance due to their better transient response compared to Full Cycle Discrete Fourier Transform (FCDFT) during dynamic situations. But there are few operational issues with phaselets that have to be observed closely. In this paper, a single end feed test system with phaselet/FCDFT was simulated in MATLAB platform with various test cases. Then the performance of phaselet based distance relaying scheme is compared with the conventional Full Cycle Discrete Fourier Transform. Results are reported in this paper.

Fading channels learning about polar codes is great prominence. Knowledge of polar codes is very important while they are applied to the wireless communication systems. In fading Channels the communication through channel estimation which is an essential step for communication. The structure is constructed by a set of information bits for both systematic polar code and non-systematic polar code and the information set recognized frozen bits. In fading channels uneven pilot selection scheme and even pilot selection scheme are two pilot selection schemes are considered for polar codes. There is an improvement in decoding performance of polar codes using these selection schemes. In this choosing of coded symbols treated as pilots is a replacement of insertion of pilots. Polar codes have poor performance in fixed domain. So the EPS selection scheme can be active for tracing or channel estimation. The structure of polar code encoding is acapable structure and pilot selection is grave since whole selections cannot use the existing structure again. By conjoining the above advantages, pilot signals are selected without any addition from outside and insertion of pilot symbols impartial to estimation of the channel. Leveraging this, the DM-BS scheme is applyto multiple input multiple output (MIMO) system in frequency selective fading channel.

After all the hindrances and hiccups, the two largest Democracies are finally engaged optimally in economic and trade activities. Simultaneously, India is also developing fruitful relationship with East Asian countries and the present government has evolved the Indian foreign policy from “Look East “to “Act East”. However, this Act east policy need not to be seen in isolation and it has to be seen as a strategic alliance between India, USA, and east Asian countries to neutralize the strategically and economic advancement of China as the global economic superpower. This closeness is unprecedented, however it should not be subjected to the sovereignty of the Indian foreign policy and India should remain Non-aligned as it has reaped humongous benefits by being non-partisan. This paper is aimed to highlight the India’s Act East policy and trade relations between the countries. So it is needed to analyze the present trend in the Indian trade with East Indian countries.

Recently, the rapid development in processing speeds, fast storage devices and better network connectivity, hasaccelerated the popularization of cloud computing. Cloud computing is an on-demand-servicewhich provides users with high end servers,storage and processing capabilities where the user need not be concerned with its infrastructure.Although, there are abundant resources in the cloud infrastructure, for the efficient working and execution of tasks, task scheduling plays a crucial role. Task scheduling results in better performance (throughput) of the system along with better resource utilization which ultimately results inreduced energy consumption. At any given time, a processor should never be in idle state, as it still consumes some amount of energy. In this paper, the use of Quantum Genetic Algorithm has led to the reduction in energy consumption. The objective is to find a scheduling sequencewhich can be implemented ina cloud computing environment. Along with minimizing energy consumption, the algorithm helps reduce makespan time of a processor as well.The results show a decrease in energy consumption by 10-15% under different test scenarios involving a variable number of tasks, processors, and the number of iterations (generations) for which the algorithm was run. The algorithm converges to the desired result within 10-15 iterations, as can be seen from the results published in this paper.

Authors: J Fövényi , P Pánczél , E Thaisz
Published: January 2020

The 26-year-old woman was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes in 2014. The diagnosis was confirmed while there was a slight increase in blood glucose and HbA1c levels using oral glucose tolerance test, determination of insulin levels and GADA testing. This was followed by a 2-year period with complete remissions and partial remissions of 2-8 U daily basal insulin glargine. Thereafter, the patient became pregnant. The minimal basal insulin used to date has been switched to human rapid-acting and NPH insulins five times daily, which had to be increased to 11 times the initial dose in the third trimester of pregnancy. After a successful spontaneous birth of a healthy baby girl, our patient wished to return to one-tenth of the maximum insulin dose that was used during pregnancy, to once daily insulin glargine. After three months, her blood glucose levels began to rise, with oral glucose challenge test showing a marked increase in blood glucose and a drastic reduction in C-peptide levels. This was when we switched to multiple daily insulin administration using glargine basal- and glulisine analogue insulins. Later, glargine was switched to insulin degludec, and with a 30-33 U total daily insulin dose and CGM for the past two years, the patient was in a satisfactory metabolic state.

MURSAL HADEETHS IN MUSANNAF OF ABD RAZZAQ IN THE CHAPTER OF JUMUAH (FRIDAY PRAYER): A CRITICAL ANALYSIS
Authors: Marheni Cut Linda
Published: January 2020

The purpose of this research is to identify and study the mursal (stopped) hadeeth (prophet tradition) in the mentioned chapter of the Musannaf, in order to know which of them can be raised to the level of Hasan lighairih (hadeeth whose final verdict is good because of support of its witnesses and follow-up), which is can be accepted. The study is done to both of their sanad (chain of transmitters ) and matn (the body text of hadeeth), using the theories of hadeeth science. This study was done by firstly, analyzing the conditions of their ruwat (narrators), then evaluating the shawahid (the same hadeeth that is narrated through the different chain as witnesses ) and mutaba'at (follow-ups).  The research finds that most of the narrators of those hadeeths mursal are thiqah (trustworthy ), and all of four mursal hadeeths are acceptable, for they can be raised to the level of hasan lighairih. This  finding supports the importance of the Musannaf as a sufficient encyclopedia of hadeeths and Islamic jurisprudence for one who seeks the verification of Islamic law, though it does not have the standard that all the hadeeths it contains must be shahih (sound), but the weak hadeeths in it are potential to be upgraded to the accepted level.

We report our photometric and spectroscopic follow-up observations of the superoutbursts of three dwarf novae (DNe; GWAC 180415A, GWAC 181017A, and GWAC 181211A) identified independently by the Ground Wide-angle Cameras system, one of the ground-based instruments of the China–France SVOM mission. Based on a combination of our photometry and that taken from the American Association of Variable Star Observers, our period analysis of the superhumps enables us to determine the mass ratios to be 0.0967–0.1163, 0.1879–0.1883, and 0.0981–0.1173 for GWAC 180415A, GWAC 181017A, and GWAC 181211A, respectively. GWAC 180415A can be firmly identified as a WZ sge-type DNe due to its long duration (∼2 weeks) multiple rebrightenings with amplitudes of 3–4 mag, the early superhump associated with a double-wave modulation and the low-mass ratio. The inferred low-mass ratio and location in the

diagram suggest that GWAC 181211A is a WZ sge-type DNe candidate. The measured Balmer decrements suggest the Balmer line emission is produced from an optical thick region in GWAC 180415A and GWAC 181017A, and from an optically thin region in GWAC 181211A.
Turbulence in the Local Interstellar Medium and the IBEX Ribbon
Authors: Zirnstein E. J. , Giacalone J. , Kumar R. , McComas D. J. , Dayeh M. A. , Heerikhuisen J.
Published: January 2020

The effects of turbulence in the very local interstellar medium (VLISM) have been proposed by Giacalone & Jokipii to be important in determining the structure of the Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) ribbon via particle trapping by magnetic mirroring. We further explore this effect by simulating the motion of charged particles in a turbulent magnetic field superposed on a large-scale mean field, which we consider to be either spatially uniform or a draped field derived from a three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic simulation. We find that the ribbon is not double-peaked, in contrast to Giacalone & Jokipii. However, the magnetic mirror force still plays an important role in trapping particles. Furthermore, the ribbon is considerably thicker if the large-scale mean field is draped around the heliosphere. Voyager 1 observations in the VLISM show a turbulent field component that is stronger than previously thought, which we test in our simulation. We find that the inclusion of turbulent fluctuations at scales ≳100 au and power consistent with Voyager 1 observations produces a ribbon whose large-scale structure is inconsistent with IBEX observations. However, restricting fluctuations to <100 au produces a smoother ribbon structure similar to IBEX observations. Different realizations of turbulence produce different small-scale features (≲10°) in the ribbon, but its large-scale structure is robust if the maximum fluctuation size is ≲50 au. This suggests that the magnetic field structure at scales ≲50 au is determined by the heliosphere–VLISM interaction and cannot entirely be represented by pristine interstellar turbulence.
The Use of a Clamp-On Plate for Forearm Fractures
Authors: Mennen Ulrich
Published: January 2020

ABSTRACT: A clamp-on plate has been developed to stabilize long-bone diaphyseal fractures. Its design is entirely different from conventional screw-secured plates. Minimal soft tissue, especially periosteal, dissection is required for application. Since there is no intramedullary encroachment, no further damage is done to the endosteal blood supply. One hundred seventy-one fractures of the radius and/or ulna were followed for at least 6 months. There were no nonunions. The average time to union was 12.3 weeks, compared to 21.4 weeks for similarly selected fractures of the radius and/or ulna treated during the same time framework by conventional screw-secured plating methods. The fact that union is reliable and can be achieved earlier than with conventional screwsecured plates supports the authors contention that sparing of the blood supply to the fracture and thus, the biological integrity of fracture healing play a parallel role along with biomechanical stability in achieving fracture union.

abstract

Reinforced iliotibial tenodesis is an extra-articular procedure to eliminate anterolateral instability of an anterior cruciate ligament-deficient knee. The procedure carries a low complication rate and offers an easy rehabilitation program. This study evaluated the use of reinforced iliotibial tenodesis in a select group of 52 patients with a mean age of 41 years (range: 38-50 years). Obese patients, professional athletes, and patiente with more complex injuries (eg, concomitant posterior cruciate or medial collateral ligament injuries) were excluded. Results are encouraging after a mean follow-up of 6 years (range: 2-1 0 years). Although 24 patients had a positive anterior drawer or Lachman test, none had a positive pivot test. In addition, all patients reported giving way was eliminated after surgery.

Histologic Retinacular Changes Associated With Ischemia in Painful Patellofemoral Malalignment
Authors: Sanchis-Alfonso Vicente , Roselló-Sastre Esther , Revert Fernando , García Almudena
Published: January 2020

abstract

Ischemie changes in 31 samples of lateral retmacula excised at surgical realignment in patients with isolated symptomatic patellofemoral malalignment resistant to conservative treatment were evaluated with conventional histology, electron microscopy, immunohistochemistry, and molecular biology. Morphologic and ultrastructural changes associated with ischemia including hypervascularization and increased vascular endothelial growth factor release were identified in painful patellofemoral malalignment. It is hypothesized that periodic short episodes of ischemia could be implicated in the pathogenesis of anterior knee pain in most cases of isolated symptomatic patellofemoral malalignment in active young patients by triggering neural proliferation.

abstract

In an attempt to evaluate the factors that result in upper-extremity digital amputation secondary to acute non-traumatic ischemia, nine patients with digital amputations secondary to septic or non-septic emboli were evaluated retrospectively. Although some evidence was present in three patients, no primary focus of emboli could be confirmed in six cases. All patients were consulted about hand surgery ≥7 days following the clinical suspicion of ischemia for different reasons. No patient had cardiac disease that might result in emboli. The most important factor that resulted in unfavorable prognosis was unknown or unproven primary focus of the emboli, including septic emboli. As a consequence, delay in recognition of the ischemia affects the outcome. Age, gender, and health condition before the incidence did not affect the outcome. Health condition of the patient at the time of diagnosis affects the outcome, as life-threatening conditions change the focus of attention and result in late recognition of the ischemia. Upper-extremity digital ischemia needs a high index of suspicion in cases with unknown or unproven primary focus of the emboli. Prompt recognition and early consultation seem necessary to prevent or reduce the extent of the amputation.

Management of Late Corneal Haze Following Photorefractive Keratectomy
Authors: Carr Jonathan D , Patel Rachna , Hersh Peter S
Published: January 2020

ABSTRACT

Subepithelial corneal haze and myopic regression are potential complications following excimer photorefractive keratectomy (PRK). There are many medical and surgical methods of managing this haze.

We present a 37-year-old male myope who underwent PRK and subsequently developed central corneal haze late in the postoperative course.

The haze was managed initially with topical medications with limited success. Mechanical superficial keratectomy was done to remove the superficial scar tissue but the haze returned necessitating repeat excimer laser PRK, using a transepithelial technique. The haze did not recur.

Both mechanical superficial keratectomy and repeat excimer laser ablation may ameliorate haze. Success of these procedures may depend on the morphology of the haze and the patient's individual wound healing response. [J Refract Surg. 1995;11 (suppl.):S309-S313.]
An Empirical Investigation on Equity Market Integration of ASEAN-India
Authors: Perumandla Swamy , Kurisetti Padma
Published: January 2020

This empirical study investigates the symmetric and asymmetric dynamic correlations and volatility linkages between ASEAN-5 and the Indian equity markets. Granger causality test results reveal that bidirectional causal relation between the pairs of India-Indonesia, and India-Singapore. However, India-Phillippines and India-Thailand have a unidirectional causal relationship. Variance decomposition results show that India's equity market volatility contributes moderate fluctuations in the variance of Indonesia, Phillippines, Singapore Thailand. Finally, the Markov regime transition probabilities show that the high transition probabilities of p11 and p22 for India-Malaysia, India-Philippines and India-Thailand indicates a high degree of regime stability. The study on financial integration provides important inputs to investors in sharing risk internationally since restrictions on investment are removed. This study provides an essential insight to policymakers, portfolio managers, domestic and international investors, risk analysts and financial researchers in an emerging market.

This chapter presents a recent survey on the development and accessibility for finance of small and medium-size enterprises (SMEs) in Mongolia. The survey covers a sample of 1922 SMEs from Ulaanbaatar, the capital city, and 21 provinces. We find that banks and local government administrations are the most supportive institutions for SME development. Political instability, corruption, and labour supply, a high lending rate, short maturity loans, and service fees are perceived as the major obstacles that SMEs face in the business environment. Our results also suggest that SMEs in Mongolia are less likely to have access to external finance because of tight credit condition, potentially explaining the lack of SME growth. Implementing country-specific reform strategy for SME development covering key building blocks is needed to promote SME financial inclusion and facilitate SMEs to contribute to the economic growth.
Enhancing System Reliability Through Targeting Fault Propagation Scope
Authors: Koc Hakduran , Mathews Oommen
Published: January 2020

The unprecedented scaling of embedded devices and its undesirable consequences leading to stochastic fault occurrences make reliability a critical design and optimization metric. In this chapter, in order to improve reliability of multi-core embedded systems, a task recomputation-based approach is presented. Given a task graph representation of the application, the proposed technique targets at the tasks whose failures cause more significant effect on overall system reliability. The results of the tasks with larger fault propagation scope are recomputed during the idle times of the available processors without incurring any performance or power overhead. The technique incorporates the fault propagation scope of each task and its degree of criticality into the scheduling algorithm and maximizes the usage of the processing elements. The experimental evaluation demonstrates the viability of the proposed approach and generates more efficient results under different latency constraints.

Published: January 2020

Contemporary multinationals exist in a dynamic digital age in which business units direct enormous attention to technological solutions and business challenges, especially logistics. Business units aim for solutions that are relatively effective to implement, in relation to solving business challenges ensuring sustainability. This research seeks to present value add relative to business process optimisation model based on 4IR (Fourth Industrial Revolution) implementations, specific to multinational logistics optimisation. The onset of the 4IR has advanced businesses significantly, specifically to logistics optimisation. This article assumes a business process-centric modelling approach via industry 4.0 implementations to model and predicts the optimum logistics execution time. This is facilitated based on defined scenarios with all potential variables affecting configured sets of logistics business functions. The results address the present gap related to presenting a process-centric and systemic architecture effective to simulate the impact of change on a business.

Published: January 2020

CD4+ helper T cells play important roles in providing help to B cells, macrophages, and cytotoxic CD8+ T cells, but also exhibit direct effector functions against a variety of different pathogens. In contrast to CD8+ T cells, CD4+ T cells typically exhibit broader specificities and undergo less clonal expansion during many types of viral infections, which often makes the identification of virus-specific CD4+ T cells technically challenging. In this study, we have generated recombinant vaccinia virus (VacV) vectors that target I-Ab–restricted peptides for MHC class II (MHC-II) presentation to activate CD4+ T cells in mice. Conjugating the lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus immunodominant epitope GP61–80 to either LAMP1 to facilitate lysosomal targeting or to the MHC-II invariant chain (Ii) significantly increased the activation of Ag-specific CD4+ T cells in vivo. Immunization with VacV-Ii-GP61–80 activated endogenous Ag-specific CD4+ T cells that formed memory and rapidly re-expanded following heterologous challenge. Notably, immunization of mice with VacV expressing an MHC-II–restricted peptide from Leishmania species (PEPCK335–351) conjugated to either LAMP1 or Ii also generated Ag-specific memory CD4+ T cells that underwent robust secondary expansion following a visceral leishmaniasis infection, suggesting this approach could be used to generate Ag-specific memory CD4+ T cells against a variety of different pathogens. Overall, our data show that VacV vectors targeting peptides for MHC-II presentation is an effective strategy to activate Ag-specific CD4+ T cells in vivo and could be used to study Ag-specific effector and memory CD4+ T cell responses against a variety of viral, bacterial, or parasitic infections.
