The paper presents the results of studying the influence of nanoparticles of silver and zinc on the culture of Madin-Darby Bovine Kidney (MDBK) and bacterial cells of E. coli at various dilution rates and various incubation times. The interaction of MDBK cells with the nanoparticles of zinc has a strong deleterious effect on the cells and causes morphological changes in them. At the same time, no toxic effects were observed after the interaction of silver nanoparticles and the cells. During incubation of E. coli bacterial cells with zinc nanoparticles, not only changes in the morphology of the cell membrane surface but also the destruction of bacterial cells were observed. During incubation with silver nanoparticles at various dilution rates for various times, changes in the cell shape from rod-shaped to rounded, without symptoms of destruction were noted.

Many processors have evolved in the past century; Out of which, Reduced Instruction set Computing (RISC) processors are well known for their ease of use. The next in line was the Microprocessor without Interlocked pipelining stages (MIPS) RISC based architecture. Less number of instructions, good amount of registers makes these processors a boon to use. Often times, MIPS processors loose the battle against their contenders due to lack of speed. Hence, there is a sheer necessity in designing a more robust system that has all the advantages of MIPS. Over time, there have been designs that could solve the power drawbacks and the area optimizations. However, performance criterion is mostly neglected. This paper emphasizes on the performance metric of pipelined 32-bit MIPS microprocessor. This processor supports RISC architecture and has been designed under Harvard architecture. Pipelining technique is used to solve the problem of low performance and achieve smaller execution times. The processor has four pipes. Pipes are the structures which store data. Pipes can be viewed as register banks. These pipes are generally used to store the intermediate data. The design contains various modules like ALU, Instruction fetch register, Execution unit, Memory, Program counter (PC). Verilog HDL has been used to implement the design. The software used is Xilinx ISE for design and ISIM simulator has been used for simulation purposes. The applications of this MIPS microprocessor are abundant. MIPS microprocessor can be used to carry out the fundamental tasks and an application specific core/IP/processor can be designed and combined with MIPS. This facilitates in meeting the goals of high performance, lower time-to-market and cost- effectiveness. Some application specific uses can be for music systems, PDA, Image processing etc.

In recent years, security has become progressively vital in mobile devices. The biggest security problems in android devices are malware attack which has been exposed to different threats. The volume of new applications by the production of mobile devices and their related app-stores is too big to manually examine the each and every application for malicious behavior. Installing applications which may leads to security vulnerabilities on the smart phones request access to sensitive information. There are various malwares can attack android device namely virus, worms, Botnet, Trojans, Backdoor and Root kits due to these attacks the users is compromised by privacy. Root kits and viruses in mobile phone and IoT devices improve along with smart device versions are very difficult to detect or to the least costly. There are 3 places where the trace of these root kits / virus is visible namely CPU, Baseband and Memory. In the new approach we will use machine learning to detect “anomaly” usage pattern and a remote (master server) will analyze and verify the presence of such threats. This research work aims to develop a pipeline to investigate if any application present in a smart device is a malware or not. This pipeline uses HMM algorithm to read anomaly in application behavior, deep learning with Deep Belief Networks (DBN) to classify application events, and bootstrapping algorithm using random forest to categorize the application itself after malware or benign.

Standard interfaces like joysticks and keyboards act as a hindrance in providing precision-oriented results due to its unnaturalness. Recent developments have been made to overcome such imprecise interaction by developing gesture control based on accelerometer. Combining this gesture recognition concept with Bluetooth and the internet we aim to control the robot wirelessly to be able to ease human effort. Using this technology, we can surmount the difficulty faced in gathering data from a hazardous and lethal areas that might pose threat to human life. An accelerometer which measures the acceleration forces by sensing changes in its capacitance and translating it into voltage for interpretation helps us to get values of human body movement in terms of 3D plane. Bluetooth at the same time works by exchanging data between a phone and fixed device wirelessly. This is done using short-wavelength over short distances. Using both these technologies, every swinging motion will be sensed to gather precise movement using the accelerometer- ADXL335 and sending this data to the Arduino Uno which processes the received input and outputs instruction to be followed by the bot. This generated data is sent over to the phone app using Bluetooth module HC-05 which is further sent to the Thingspeak.com website. The receiver end then receives this data using Node MCU Wi-Fi Module and drives the motor to the input direction through the driving board connected to it. Hence, a common man will be able to use this effectively and easily to complete his tasks.

The concept of digitization has marked a revolution in the area of data conversion, data storage and data sharing by converting non-editable typographic & handwritten text into editable electronic text. Though numerous such works have been carried out across the world in various languages using Optical Character Recognition (OCR), satisfactory output has been observed only in a few languages. This paper is an endeavor towards taking a step ahead in the digitization of two of the most extensively spoken languages in the Indian sub-continent – Hindi and Bengali - using Google’s open source OCR Engine, Tesseract. Working on the scripts of these two languages of Brahmi origin has its own challenges owing to their varied traits of character segmentation and word formation. Here, the training of Tesseract with data sets of Hindi and Bengali typographic and handwritten characters has been integrated with an inimitable pre-processing stage involving input image customization and image augmentation that significantly enhances the image quality allowing Tesseract to offer more accurate results, especially in cases of handwritten texts and obscure images. Besides, it also incorporates the features of English translation and text to speech translation which render their significance among the non-natives and visually impaired mass. The focal idea of this paper has been to reach out to an extended mass by enabling digitization on the Android platform. Comparative analysis carried out on three distinctive parameters - on images with typographic texts, handwritten texts and on inferior quality images - shows that the paper, to a certain extent, does succeed in projecting superior output in at least two cases as compared to the most consistent Android application of today’s time.

Bubble sizes in bubble column affect transfer processes. Therefore, it’s important to calculate bubble size and interfacial area. Bubble size distribution (BSD) in a bubble column of rectangular cross section with dimensions 0.2m x 0.02m was measured using photographic method (400 fps) for air-water system. Gas holdup, Sauter-mean bubble diameter, aspect ratio and specific interfacial area were estimated from BSD. Effect of superficial gas velocity and static bed height on these parameters was investigated. The bubble size distribution exhibited mono-modal distribution showing the presence of non-uniform homogeneous bubbling regime. The frames of video were analysed using image processing steps to obtain major and minor axis of elliptical bubbles. Values of d32, , and ai were estimated from the data. The value of d32 increased with increasing Ug but is independent of Hs. The values of d32 were somewhat higher than the values reported by other investigators. The value of ai increases with increasing Ug and with decreasing Hs. Present values of compared well with the data reported in literature.

The process of analyzing big data and other valuable information is a significant process in the cloud. Since big data processing utilizes a large number of resources for completing certain tasks. Therefore, the incoming tasks are allocated with better utilization of resources to minimize the workload across the server in the cloud. The conventional load balancing technique failed to balance the load effectively among data centers and dynamic QoS requirements of big data application. In order to improve the load balancing with maximum throughput and minimum makespan, Support Vector Regression based MapReduce Throttled Load Balancing (SVR-MTLB) technique is introduced. Initially, a large number of cloud user requests (data/file) are sent to the cloud server from different locations. After collecting the cloud user request, the SVR-MTLB technique balances the workload of the virtual machine with the help of support vector regression. The load balancer uses the index table for maintaining the virtual machines. Then, map function performs the regression analysis using optimal hyperplane and provides three resource status of the virtual machine namely overloaded, less loaded and balanced load. After finding the less loaded VM, the load balancer sends the ID of the virtual machine to the data center controller. The controller performs migration of the task from an overloaded VM to a less loaded VM at run time. This in turn assists to minimize the response time. Experimental evaluation is carried out on the factors such as throughput, makespan, migration time and response time with respect to a number of tasks. The experimental results reported that the proposed SVR-MTLB technique obtains high throughput with minimum response time, makespan as well as migration time than the state -of -the -art methods.

In this article, the Minimum Fuzzy Rule-Based (MFRB) sensor-actuator controller has designed for dynamic motion planning of a differential drive wheeled robot among the moving, non-moving obstacles and goal in two-dimensional environments. The ring of ultrasonic sensors and infrared sensors have been attached on the front side, left side, and right side of the wheeled robot, which detects the moving obstacles, as well as non-moving obstacles in any environment. This proposed MFRB sensor-actuator controller helps the wheeled robot to move safely in a different scenario. The onboard sensor interpretation data are fed as input to the MFRB controller, and the MFRB controller provides the Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) based wheel velocity commands to both the left and right motors of a wheeled robot. In the numerical simulation and experiment, we have taken one condition that the speed of wheels of the differential drive wheeled robot is at least more than or equal to the rate of the moving obstacles and the moving goal. The numerical simulations are performed through a MATLAB graphical user interface (GUI), and we have used the differential drive wheeled robot to conduct experiments. The presented numerical simulation and experimental results illustrate that the MFRB controller operated wheeled robot has successfully avoided the stationary and non- stationary obstacles in various scenarios.

The study investigates the attitude of construction firms operating within Kano metropolis towards safety provision for workers on site. In achieving these objectives Investigatory Survey Research Approach Method (ISRAM) was adopted and used in order to obtain quantitative and qualitative data. Questionnaires were distributed to various construction companies within Kano metropolis, the totals of eighty (80) copies were distributed and fifty eight (58) copies were retrieved. Data collected were found suitable. And were analyzed using Software statistical package (SPSS). From the analysis the result revealed that there is negligence in the attitude of construction companies towards safety and stricter regulations have to been forced. Dissemination of information on safety techniques would reduce accident on site and increase the worker’s moral for better performance in turns to reducing overrun cost. Ineffectiveness of government policy on safety measure especially in construction work was found to have contributed to low productivity by workers on site, since they don’t have access to any claim even when accident occurred on sites. Archaeologists have discovered thousands of bodies buried in the foundation of the wall. Bodies were also used to make up the wall’s thickness. It has been estimated that millions of workers lost their lives due to accident, intense physical labor, starvation and disease. This is in order of magnitude of life per meter of wall length. Therefore, safety in mission statement of large construction firms or companies is not common (Amaechi, 1990). Execution is supported by correlation; some of these correlations were by organizations such as Independent Project Analysis (IPA). It has been statistically proven that there is correlation between good front end loading and safety performance of good front end loading.

Aim. Evaluation of the efficiency of the method of reassortant strains for live influenza vaccine development and ways to optimize it, taking into account the differences in the current epidemic influenza viruses by key biological characteristics.Materials and methods. Influenza viruses — candidates for seasonal LAIVs, MDVs for Russian LAIVs A/Leningrad/134/17/57 (H2N2) and B/USSR/60/69. The vaccine strains development in developing chicken embryos included reassortment, selective passages at low temperature in the presence of hyperimmune serum to the MDV, several stages of reassortants cloning, their virological and molecular genetic characteristics. Epidemic influenza viruses and LAIVs strains were evaluated by their ability to reproduction at temperatures beyond optimal values, by sensitivity to serum inhibitors.Results. The assessment of phenotypic properties used in reassortment epidemic viruses is carried out. Presented the data on the efficiency of development reassortant strains for LAIV depending on the biological properties of circulating epidemic influenza viruses: their temperature-resistant, cold-sensitive phenotype, inhibitor resistance, and receptor specificity.Conclusion. Based on the assessment of the influence of the biological characteristics of the epidemic viruses, the rational methodological techniques for the most effective development of reassortants for LAIV are selected.

Aim. The purpose was to assess the species composition, virulence factors and the nature of the interaction of Enterobacteria with intestinal microsymbionts in HIV-positive children.Material and methods. The composition of intestinal microbiocenosis of 89 HIV-infected children (main group) and 74 children without HIV status (comparison group) was studied. 273 strains of Enterobacteria were isolated and identified to the species. The frequency and level of expression of adhesion, invasion, toxin formation and antagonism factors were studied.Results. In HIV-positive children colonization rate of intestinal mucosa E. coli lac — was 5 times higher, E. coli hly+ 1.5 times higher than in the comparison group. The quantitative level of opportunistic enterobacteria increases with the aggravation of microecological disorders, 98% of enterobacteria forms a many-to-many association. Of these, 86.8% are neutral towards other symbionts. The frequency and level of production of adhesion, invasion and toxin formation factors did not differ in the compared groups.Conclusion. In HIV-infected children is formed enterobacteriales type microbiota. Biological properties of enterobacteria did not depend on the presence of HIV status in children.

Algorithm of intracellular bacterial parasitism does not depend on if bacterium is obligate or facultative intracellular parasite. Depending on replicative niche’s localization intracellular bacterial parasites are divided onto cellular and vacuolated. Rickettsia spp., Shigella spp., Chlamydia spp. and Listeria monocytogenes use cell’s machinery of actin polymerization during process of their intracellular parasitism. These bacteria possess some of effector’s proteins which contain domains identical to effector proteins from the host cell. Shigella spp. T3SS and autotransporter protein IscA provide this process together with spreading bacteria intra colonic epithelium. In contrast other intracellular bacterial parasites, Listeria monocytogenes switches from dissemination in cytosol to persist in vacuole. In case of Brucella spp. the leading role in the creation of a replicative niche and in the modulation of the innate immune response is played by effector proteins of fourth type secretory system (T4SS).

Este trabalho apresenta um método promissor para a filtragem do sinal ECG, chamado Decomposição de Modo Empírico (EMD, do inglês Empirical ModeDecomposition). O EMD pode ser utilizado para a remoção de ruído de baixa ou de alta frequência em sinais de ECG. A fim de melhorar o desempenho na remoção de ruído de alta frequência, este trabalho propõe um algoritmo original baseado no EMD. O desempenho do método é avaliado em sinais de ECG ruidosos reais selecionados apartir do banco de dados MIT-BIH de arritmia. Os resultados obtidos com o método EMD são comparáveis aos que utilizam métodos baseados em Transformada Wavelet

Objetivou-se quantificar e analisar as mudanças na composição da produção das principais culturas na mesorregião Noroeste Espírito-Santense, no período de 1970 a 2010. Utilizaram-se dados do IBGE e empregou-se o método shift-share para quantificar a variação na área cultivada, no rendimento, na localização geográfica e nos índices de diversificação de área e de valor da produção. Constatou-se que houve alterações na composição da produção agrícola da mesorregião Noroeste do Estado. Em todas asquatro décadas analisadas, a cultura de café foi a que mais absorveu área, e as culturas de milho e de arroz as que mais cederam áreas. Em termos de rendimento, além do café, destacaram-se cacau na década de 1970, mandioca e tomate na década de 1980, coco na década de 1990 e banana de 2000 a 2010.

Published: November 2019

O coeficiente de transferência de calor por convecção, h, é uma função de difícil estimativa, pois depende de diversas variáveis. Diante disso, o principal objetivo deste estudo é determinar experimentalmente o h em regime estacionário, através do parâmetro da aleta, e em regime transiente, utilizando o método da capacitância global. Os valores estimados do h para ambiente livre e ambiente confinado são de 22,38 e 18,39 W/m2K para regime estacionário, e de 12,25 e 11,85 W/m2K para regime transiente. Os valores estimados do h mostraram uma boa concordância com os valores da literatura. A metodologia experimental deste estudo apresenta-se como uma alternativa simples que pode ser utilizada como uma estimativa inicial do h para regime estacionário e regime transiente.
