Authors:   Dept. Computer Science. Integral University, Lucknow, Akbar Mohd , Ahmad Dr. Shish ,   Dept. Computer Science. Integral University, Lucknow
Published: September 2019

Internet based Vehicular (iVANET) ad-hoc networks are meticulously especial case of normal VANET. It is basically made of a combined wired Internet as well as vehicular ad hoc network for developing a new baby-boom of omnipresent and ubiquitous computing. The Internet connectivity is usually extended to V2I (vehicle to infrastructure) communication whilst ad-hoc networks are used in vehicle to vehicle (V2V) communication. The latency is one of the main matters of concern in VANET. By minimizing distance between data source and the remote vehicle through rectified caching technique along with redefined cache lookup mechanism, the latency can be shortened by a significant factor in iVANET environment. In this paper various cache invalidation schemes are studied and analyzed. Exploring the possibilities of caching schemes which can be hybridized or mutated, paper introduces an algorithmic proposal along with redefined services mechanism for cache lookup and invalidation, which strives for achieving low latency with reduced negative acknowledgement (NACK) in the network. This paper introduces a rectified algorithm for guaranteed delivery of the queried data and efficiently invalidating cache contents at different levels of hierarchy. The proposed work is anticipated to fructify the network performance minimizing the cost and bandwidth utilization during cache invalidation and hence guarantees improved quality of service (QoS).

There has been an alarming increase in the number of vehicles on the Indian roads in the recent times, almost triple as that in 2005[10]. which obviously leads to traffic congestion on road and enhanced pollution, although there has been many reasons for the same but major one is unmanaged traffic light system as the current traffic light system is either manual or static timings of traffic lights regardless of the flow of traffic. There is a need for smart solution to the traffic light in Indian cities or to have ITS (Intelligent traffic system). Paper provides a solution based on camera feed at crossings for each lane, process the data through and allocates the “Green” time according to its traffic flow density using YOLO v3 and also takes care of starvation issue that might arise of the solution. As a result the flow of traffic on each lane is automatically optimized and the congestion that used to happen unnecessarily earlier is eliminated and results shows significant benefits in reducing traffic waiting time.

Understeering in production vehicles is a common mechanism followed in day to days automobile industries. Rare cases have been recorded where over steering is implemented. Consider a vehicle that can automatically compensate for both the under steering and over steering issues, the concept will assist and enable the driver to experience nearly the neutral steering under the varying operational conditions. This paper deals with the introduction of rack and pinion mechanism, employed for the purpose of optimizing and mathematical calculation of turning radius for a 4 Wheel steering system equipped in the considered vehicle model MARUTI SUZUKI BALENO. This allows the conversion of the steering rotational motion into linear motion which enables effective wheel turning with minimum efforts applied by the driver. The power is transferred from the front axle to the rear axle by using a tie rod connected to a rack and pinion mechanism. The excessive work load on the front wheels and uneven tire wear results in a less efficient functioning of the vehicle. The purpose of this paper helps in enhanced and much efficient performance of the vehicle and reduces the maneuverer efforts.

The generated analog voltage is used again as an input to the to generate one more bit, and new analog voltage, and so on. The proposed n-bit ADC is built using the novel one-bit cell in two different styles. One design style, by connecting n ADC cells together to construct n-bit ADC that produces parallel binary outputs. The other design style realizes the n-bit ADC using single ADC cell and outputs n-bit serially. In both ADC designs introduced in this work, modularity was the main design parameter. The two different n-bit ADCs have been simulated. The first n-bit ADC with parallel outputs produces clean outputs at 50MS/s, and the other ADC design shows clean serial bits at 5KS/s.

Sequential pattern mining is one of the important functionalities of data mining. It is used for analyzing sequential database and discovers sequential patterns. It is focused for extracting interesting subsequences from a set of sequences. Various factors such as rate of occurrence, length, and profit are used to define the interestingness of subsequence derived from the sequence database. Sequential pattern mining has abundant real-life applications since sequential data is logically programmed as sequences of cipher in many fields such as bioinformatics, e-learning, market basket analysis, texts, and webpage click-stream analysis. A large diversity of competent algorithms such as Prefixspan, GSP and Freespan have been proposed during the past few years. In this paper we propose a data model for organizing the sequential database, which consists of a directed graph DGS (cycles and several edges are allowed) and an organization of directed paths in DGS to represent a sequential data for discovering sequential pattern3 from a sequence database. Competent algorithms for constructing the digraph model (DGS) for extracting all sequential patterns and mining association rules are proposed. A number of theoretical parameters of digraph model are also introduced, which lead to more understanding of the problem.

Nowadays, Energy conservation and management are a must practice due to the exponentially increasing energy usage. One solution for providing for energy conservation is appliance load monitoring. Load monitoring approach should be simple and of low cost in order to be massively deployable. Non-Intrusive load monitoring is a better approach since it can disaggregate energy at the cost of single energy meter. A low sampling rate energy meter incurs low cost compared to a high sampling rate energy meter. In this paper a less complex, low cost energy disaggregation approach has been proposed.

The facilitation of quality of service (QoS) under routing in Mobile Ad Hoc NETworks (MANETs) is a challenging issue due to its resource constraints, bandwidth sharing and topology dynamism. Moreover, security is considered as another complex issue of provisioning QoS as the prevalence of maliciousness nodes introduces all types of threats to the MANETs. In spite of a diversified number of mechanisms contributed for securing MANETs, majority of the solutions are potential in preventing some particular category of attacks or facilitate security by sacrificing the QoS cost. In this paper, Hybrid Energy and Trust Efficient Reactive Routing Mechanism (HETERRM) was proposed for ensuring trust-oriented QoS routing process that integrates QoS trust and social trust. This proposed HETERRM first relies on the process of mitigating maliciousness nodes by incorporating a trust mechanism that is capable in different packet forwarding misbehavior and reliable path discovery for facilitating trustworthy communication. This proposed HETERRM further aids in selecting the optimal forwarding node based on quality of channel, quality of link and residual energy to quantify the packet forwarding potential. The simulation experiments of the proposed HETERRM are conducted using ns-2 is evaluated using energy consumptions, packet delivery ratio and overhead.

Basically, in low power applications, the energy should be harvested depend on the frequent interruptions. In this paper we proposed the design of spin-transfer torque magnetic tunnel junctions (STT-MTJs) non volatile based on flip flops based memory. The main intent of non volatile is to address the state of system by saving the memory. By using STT-MTJs based flip flop, high energy consumption will be obtained and there will be backup of the system. In CMOS the flip flop will used standard magnetic MRAM technology. The main intent of magnetic tunnel junctions is to store the data. The proposed non volatile flip flop will determine the delay and energy. Logic circuits are enabled using non volatility and this will reduce the start up latency. This start up latency ranges from micro seconds to hundred pico seconds. Here the information is stored using non volatile logic of memory. This process is done on pre chip basis. Hence compared to existed system, the proposed system gives effective results.

This work was performed in order to measure the photon and neutron head-leakage values of the TrueBeam® (TB) accelerator. Measurements are compared with the data provided by the manufacturer for TB as well as Clinac.Four higher photon energies (10MV, 10MV FFF, 18MV and 20MV) and electron energy (22MeV) are considered in this study. The electron energy used in this study was the maximum available in this machine. Optically Stimulated Luminescence (OSL) Dosimeters are used for photon head-leakage measurements. Neutron component of the head-leakage was measured using track-etch (CR-39) detectors. Both photon and neutron head-leakage values for TB machine was measured using OSL and track-etch, respectively. These results were compared with the standard values provided by the manufacturer for both TB and Clinac. The study indicates that the higher neutron head-leakage once moved towards the 20MV range of photon energy. Also, the lower head-leakage values were recorded for flattening filter free beam (10MV FFF). It was observed that the photon head leakage value for Clinac was higher, and the neutron head-leakage value was found to be slightly less than the TB values.

Authors: Paoki Rouna
Published: September 2019

The purpose of this research was to identify the records management and to determine the challenges in records management at the business office of Universitas Klabat. This case study utilized five employees from the business office of Universitas Klabat. The data collection techniques used were observation and interview using Miles and Hubberman model. The observation showed that the business office has applied the filing system; however, the staff lacked the skills in manipulating the filing system. Therefore, the filing system was not in accordance to the correct filing standards. This study implied that each employee needs more knowledge in records management. Aside from the employees, it is recommended that the office secretaries participate in records management training. Further, the records facilities should be improved to support the records management in the offices. Lastly, a clear procedure in records management should be developed and implemented.

Presently, Thai higher education institutions are more aware of the continualreducing numbers of higher education admission of Thai students which is lowerthan the provided seats in universities. Hence, the students’ Public Relations andRecruitment Strategies (PRRS) are considered to be the necessary strategies tosolve this difficult situation especially in the new challenges of ASEAN openingcommunity and the 21st century era. Therefore, “A study of university students’PRRS for ASEAN opening community and the 21st century” was conducted. Thepurposes of this research were to 1) study the important channels of PRRS and 2)provide the effective strategies of PRRS in this era. The survey research wasconducted by using the seven main indicators as a tool of research to search thePRRS information on the websites of 27 Thai Autonomous Public Universities(TAPU). The data of each indicator were analyzed in to percentage and orderedthem. The findings show that mostly TAPUs provided the important channels ofPRRS such as online admission application form, electronic posters, Facebook, callcenters, radio, and Youtube. Hence, it was recommended that the Memorandum ofUnderstanding (MoU) strategy should be utilized for this era as well.
Self-Care Pattern among Mature Woman with Hypertension at Karyawangi Village of Parongpong District of Bandung Regency: A Phenomenological Study
Authors: Simanjuntak Samuel M.
Published: September 2019

Hypertension, known as the silent killer, is a condition where the systolic blood pressure is more than 120 mmHg and diastolic pressure is more than 80 mmHg. The study explored the patient’s self-care patterns toward the hypertension, environmental patterns, family roles, coping method, and how to obtain health assistance. This study made use of qualitative-phenomenological methods of research by conducting an in-depth interview on seven respondents utilizing ten semi-structured questions. The participants were selected using the purposive sampling with inclusion and exclusion criteria. The following themes were identified after the conduct of the study: self-physical, emotional condition, cognator, mastery experience, vicarious experience, self-concept, self-efficacy, persuasion, regulator and interdependence. The study also recommended that other characteristics from each category be explored such as patient self-care patterns and lifestyle patterns. It also recommended that the health officer  provide clear information that is easy to understand. Furthermore, regular health education must be provided among mature woman.
Principles and Methods of Establishing Intelligent First Order Survey Controls in a University Environment

Players in the physical planning and development of the environment in which we live are often accountable for levels of its progress or decline. This is because the players (planners, surveyors and other environmental managers) have greater information as well as privileged access to data that are directly or indirectly on land and its resources. This paper showcases a working document for establish- ing intelligent first order survey controls in a university environment for use in instructing students in the field of physical planning and development of the environment. The permanent site of the Enugu State University of Science and Technology (ESUT) Agbani was used as a case study, where three (3) first Order controls were established for use. This was achieved with the use of Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS). The problem addressed was that, even though first order survey controls are very necessary for high accuracy positioning and research, the Enugu State University of Science and Technology (ESUT) Agbani currently has no such very reliable control points because most of those previously established were second and third-order controls established for instructional purposes. The project was executed with the use of GNSS for precise point positioning and to measure vectors (or baselines) between two or more survey control marks in a static (or stationary) mode of operation. Data collection was through a reconnaissance survey with appropriate remote sensing and other equipment to acquire high-resolution imageries for the referenced depiction of the site characteristics. Geo-spatial analysis including geo-referencing of critical infrastructures and other point of interest (POI) within the permanent site was achieved. With the data so collected, three points were established (one at the Administrative area, one at the Faculty of Environmental Sciences and one at the Vice Chancellor’s Lodge). It is recommended that staff and students make use of these Controls for accurate instructions on positioning of structures in the University and other environments and also for checking structural deformations.
