Authors: Chana Timothy M. , Manomaivibool Panate
Published: August 2019

Co-management which was founded on common-pool resource design principles has been popularized in solving sustainability challenges of nat ional parks. Co-management was im-posed on all national parks in Malawi under the 2000 Wildlife Policy. However, such a top-down approach might neglect the local contexts that influenced policy implementation. The objective of this study was to examine the implementation of co-management and determine the extent of conformity to Ostrom’s eight design principles. The Institutional Analysis and Development (IAD) framework was engaged through a qualitative case study of Liwonde National Park and Majete Wildlife Reserve. Based on co-management documentations and key informant interviews, the research found varied extents of conformity in the two cases despitea unified national policy framework. Majete was more supportive to the design principles than Liwonde because of resource, user and institutional attributes. The study proposed fine tuningthe implementation process towards contextualizing these attributes for long term delivery of perceivable biodiversity and livelihoods benefits.

This study investigated the effect of cement dust emitted from Dangote cement factory, Ibese, Ogun State, Nigeria on the environment and human health. Soil and plant samples were col-lected from six sampling points at different distances i.e. inside the factory kiln (IFK), the factory 300m), based on the prevailing wind direction. Control samples were taken opposite the wind direction at ILA(Ilaro) about 1,000 m. Cu, Zn, Mn, Pb, Ni and Cd were analyzed in the samples using atomic ab-sorption spectrophotometer. Air quality and noise levels were monitored using standard me-thods. Sulphur dioxide, oxides of nitrogen (NOx), total suspended particulate matter and noiseconcentrations ranged from 7-25ppm, 0.1-0.2ppm, 101-13,056ugm-3and 72.1-98.2dBrespec-tively,which were higher than USEPA standard. Heavy metals in soils were in the order of: MAR>IFK>AOK>IBE>ILA>TFG for Cu, AOK>MAR>IFK>TFG>ILA>IBE for Zn, IBE>IFK>MAR>AOK>TFG>ILA for Cd, IBE>AOK>MAR>TFG>IFK>ILA for Mn, IBE>AOK> TFG>MAR>ILA>IFK>IBE for Pband MAR>TFG>AOK>IBE>ILA>IFK for Ni. Health-related characteristics of the respondents also showed that 2.5% had allergies that hindered breathing, while 3.75% had difficulty in smelling. Health risk assessment showed that in-gestion is the major pathway of exposure to heavy metals in soil samples for both children andadults. Cd, Mn, Ni and Pb pose non-cancer risks to children, while only Cd and Mn pose non-cancer risks to adults. Ni and Pb pose the greatest cancer risk to children. In cassava leaves andtubers Pb was the only metal found to pose cancer risk in both children and adults.

Different mathematical models, Artificial Intelligence approach and Past recorded data set is combined to formulate Machine Learning. Machine Learning uses different learning algorithms for different types of data and has been classified into three types. The advantage of this learning is that it uses Artificial Neural Network and based on the error rates, it adjusts the weights to improve itself in further epochs. But, Machine Learning works well only when the features are defined accurately. Deciding which feature to select needs good domain knowledge which makes Machine Learning developer dependable. The lack of domain knowledge affects the performance. This dependency inspired the invention of Deep Learning. Deep Learning can detect features through self-training models and is able to give better results compared to using Artificial Intelligence or Machine Learning. It uses different functions like ReLU, Gradient Descend and Optimizers, which makes it the best thing available so far. To efficiently apply such optimizers, one should have the knowledge of mathematical computations and convolutions running behind the layers. It also uses different pooling layers to get the features. But these Modern Approaches need high level of computation which requires CPU and GPUs. In case, if, such high computational power, if hardware is not available then one can use Google Colaboratory framework. The Deep Learning Approach is proven to improve the skin cancer detection as demonstrated in this paper. The paper also aims to provide the circumstantial knowledge to the reader of various practices mentioned above.

Energy efficiency is the main concern of the 21st century. The smartphone could be a trendy battery operated device and also the experience of the smartphone usage is entirely counting on the battery life. The state of the Smartphone can be Screen_OFF and Screen_ON. Majority of the time spent by the user on the phone is in screen off mode however 30% to 40% of the battery power consumption in this state through Always_On Apps. These apps send tiny burst to their server for various functions at a specific interval of time and keep RRC state busy. This paper proposes an energy-efficient algorithm for high-speed packet data transfer on a Smartphone called PSEO (PS Energy Optimization). It schedules data communication throughout the screen off state based on the radio signal quality. PSEO regulate Data_ON and Data_OFF period while not affecting the user convenience based on the independent value of RSRQ. The proposed research saves the energy up to 28.88%, 78.60% and 16.20% on average of total network energy, Screen_Off energy, and overall smartphone energy respectively.

In data mining, shorter text analysis is performed more widely for many applications. Based on the syntax of the language, it is very difficult to analyze the short text with several traditional tools of natural language processing and this is not applied correctly either. In short text, it is known that there are rare and insufficient data available and further it is difficult to identify semantic knowledge with the great noise and ambiguity of short texts. In this paper, the authors proposed to replace the coefficient of similarity of Cosine with the measure of similarity of Jaro-Winkler to obtain the coincidence of similarity between pairs of text (source text and target text). Jaro-Winkler does a better job of determining the similarity of the strings because it takes an order into account when using the positional indices to estimate relevance. It is presumed that the performance of CACT driven by Jaro-Wrinkler with respect to one-to-many data links offers optimized performance when compared to the operation of CACT driven by cosine. In this paper, the ensemble algorithm CACTS and SAE is adopted with Jaro-Winkler similarity approach. The new algorithm is employed for short text analysis and better results. An evaluation of our proposed concept is sufficient as validation.

Crusher sand or Manufactured sand (M-Sand) obtained from stone aggregate quarries is widely used as fine aggregate in concrete to avoid the depletion of natural river sand. To avoid air and land pollution due to direct dumping of wastes in open land area from granite processing industries and thermal power stations, the behavior of reinforced concrete beam without waste (RC beam) and with waste (RCW beam) materials like granite powder (10%) and bottom ash (10%) as combined partial replacement for M-Sand was carried out. The parameters like load carrying capacity, ductility, energy absorption capacity and stiffness degradation were evaluated. The behavior of all the parameters of both the beams was similar and there was slight decrease (10%) in strength parameters due to increase in fine pore particles. Hence, the granite powder and bottom ash can be used as partial replacement for fine aggregate in building constructions.

In the next generation cellular system or Next-Generation Wireless Systems a main drawback is the handoff. In time of hand off some time the connected are goes to wait state or call are disconnected. We are trying to minimize the handoff in this paper. In time of handoff, the new BTS cannot give faster service or allocate a channel in proper time duration. In IP base mobile communication, another problem are face, that is the issuing the IP. So we find the handoff probability in current service area and ensuring the new BTS to ready for allocating the signal and also IP to continue the call.

Hospitals including all types of health care centers generate a lot of wastes per day which needs to be segregated, collected and transported to the treatment and disposal site according to the norms prescribed by the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB), India. After reading about mismanagement of bio-medical waste in local newspapers of Kota city, it was planned to perform an analytical study to find out the factual status. During study, the hospitals of Kota both government and private were visited and the status of bio-medical waste management was studied right from its generation to the final transportation from the hospitals by concerned agency nominated for this purpose. It was noticed that treatment and disposal facilities are not available at Kota and as per official records; the waste is transported to another city Alwar. During the study period, this fact could not be verified as there were no vehicles seen transporting bio-medical waste daily from Kota to Alwar and no monitoring system was seen in place for this purpose whether the operator has actually transported the waste to the treatment site or dumped it somewhere else with municipal solid waste. Other than this, many shortcomings in the system were also noticed during the study period. The segregation is not performed at the point of generation, the employees deployed for segregation, collection and transportation are neither sufficient in number nor well trained and do not have any safety equipment, transportation is not carried out properly and most critical point to note is that the city does not have any treatment plant of its own. There is a lack of awareness among all stakeholders regarding new Bio-Medical Waste Management (BMWM) Rules, 2016. The concerned authorities need to take an immediate action for proper management of bio-medical waste in Kota; otherwise it may create severe health hazards to human health, especially the young students studying in coaching institutes of Kota.

Dealing with continuous (frequently occurring) and huge volume data with conventional computing environment becomes challenging now days due to the memory and processing limitations present in the allocated resources though the network connectivity and site processing power are relatively high. However distributed processing approaches support this issue as a main theme through filtering data to our needs and analyzing the data to check the presence of required characteristics becomes solvable in specific contexts and IT industries thrives on this capability. In this paper the environment for e-Learning is selected as there are many inherent problems to be solved and researchers progress mainly due to technology advancement by using relevant tools. Here we address the problem of filtering or extracting the data not from any data warehouse but continuous data collection from connected nodes and isolated tables and generate the data for checking the relationships from inputs of student engagement activities to their performance. Since the inputs are not independent, it is applied with various filters through the queries and the patterns are detected by machine learning techniques like linear regression and support vector machine.
