Published: August 2024

Fault tolerance is an important part of cloud computing because it makes sure that services will still be available and reliable even if there is a problem with the hardware, software, or network. The paper talks about a number of different models and strategies for fault tolerance that are used in cloud computing. We look at many important ideas in depth in a literature study. Some of these are redundancy, replication, consensus methods, checkpointing, and failover techniques. As the review pointed out, these methods are used by major cloud service providers like Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google Cloud Platform (GCP), and Microsoft Azure to keep data safe and offer high availability. We talk about new ideas like serverless computing, microservices architecture, and the use of machine learning for fault detection. We also talk about present problems like data consistency, performance overhead, security concerns, and the complexity of fault tolerance models. In the end of the paper, suggestions are made for more research, with a focus on looking into how new technologies affect fault tolerance. There needs to be more actual research to fix the problems with the secondary research, like the small range of literature that was looked at and how quickly cloud technology is growing. The results of this study can help both researchers and professional users who want to make cloud services more reliable by learning more about how to add fault tolerance techniques to cloud systems.

Authors: Randive Vaishali , Agnihotri Snehal , Bhagat Rani
Published: August 2024

Phosphorus stands as a pivotal macronutrient crucial for the development of plants. Overuse of phosphate fertilizers can lead to groundwater contamination and soil deterioration. The utilization of phosphate solubilizing bacteria (PSB) biofertilizer provides a sustainable and eco-friendly alternative for agricultural practices. This study focused on isolating PSB strains from the rhizosphere of native plants in the Northern Western Ghats (NWG) exhibiting multifunctional plant growth-promoting traits. Five PSB isolates were chosen from the rhizospheres of Meiogyne pannosa (Dalzell) J. Sinclair (MG2, MG5), Myristica dactyloides Gaertn. (MR1, MR2), and Knema attenuata (Hook. fil. & Thoms.) Warb. (KN2). Isolates were evaluated for nitrogen fixation, indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) production, 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate (ACC) deaminase production, and ammonia production. MG2 and MG5 displayed positive traits for mentioned plant growth-promoting (PGP) characteristics, while MR1, MR2, and KN1 exhibited positive traits for four PGP attributes. MG5 showed the highest phosphorus release from tri-calcium phosphate, substantial IAA production and ACC deaminase activity. KN2 and MG2 also demonstrated significant phosphorus release and IAA production alongside ACC deaminase activity. The high R2 and negative correlation coefficient in the linear regression model between soluble phosphorus concentration and pH of NBRIP broth confirm organic acid’s role in phosphate solubilization. All five isolates significantly enhanced shoot and root length as well as plant biomass of mung beans, with KN2 having the most pronounced influence on mung bean growth, followed by MG5. This study emphasizes the importance of PGPR isolates harbouring multiple PGP activities for enhancing plant growth. KN2 and MG5 emerge as promising biofertilizer candidates with significant potential for sustainable crop production.

Authors: Vidya Pothayi  , Faisal Moossa Athikkavil  , Sebastian Chempakassery Devasia
Published: August 2024

Yeasts present in mangrove sediments were found to play an important role in detrital food web, nutrient cycling, decomposition and biodegradation. They produce hydrolytic enzymes and secondary metabolites which have formidable industrial, biotechnological and bioremediation properties. Since the mangrove sediments experience extreme environmental circumstances, the yeast and the enzymes produced from them can also withstand such utmost conditions. This makes mangrove sediment yeasts the best source for the production of industrially and biotechnologically important enzymes. Yeasts that can produce extracellular lipases were screened and isolated from the mangrove sediments of Kerala coast. Lipases were isolated and purified from two selected strains identified as Candida tropicalis (VPY3) and Diutina mesorugosa (VPY42). The final purification folds of C.tropicalis and D.mesorugosa lipases were calculated to be 5.6% and 4.6% and final specific activities were 2.643 U/mg and 2.662 U/mg respectively. The molecular weights of the purified lipases were estimated by SDS-PAGE to be ~50kDa for Candida tropicalis and ~59kDa for D.mesorugosa. The optimum incubation time, temperature and pH of VPY3 lipases for maximum activity were 30 minutes, 30⁰C and 6 while that for VPY42 were 20 minutes, 20⁰C and 5. Both the lipases were stable at wide range of temperatures, pH and in the presence of metal ions and organic solvents. The enzyme kinetics studies showed that the Km and Vmax values of VPY3 lipase were 0.32mM and 58.24U/mL/min and that for VPY42 lipase were 0.55mM and 178.36U/ml/min respectively. This indicates that lipases have high substrate affinity and can act as good biocatalysts. These interesting characteristics of purified lipases from mangrove sediment yeasts C.tropicalis and D.mesorugosa in the present study make them highly suitable for biotechnological and industrial applications.

Published: August 2024

The demand for enhanced safety and extended lifespan of brake systems prompts the investigation to increase the static mechanical properties and fatigue resistance of commercial vehicle brake spiders through the incorporation of niobium nanoparticles into a cast iron alloy. This study aims to improve the material structure as well as the static and dynamic mechanical properties of the component. Chemical, microscopic, and mechanical analyses were conducted in samples of the nanostructured alloy and in the spider. A durability test was performed using a structural bench called “Chuker” to assess the potential increase in fatigue life. The Chuker is capable of simulating a real-world brake system condition, including torque magnitudes up to 17.5 kNm, which are the highest to be withstand by the designed brake power. This torque replicates the brake system activation during a vehicle emergency braking. The spiders manufactured with the nanostructured alloy exhibited most uniform microstructure with an improved graphite nodule distribution with a growth of the number of nodules per square millimeter. Monotonic mechanical tests showed a 34% increase in yield stress, while fatigue tests indicated a approximately 35% longer useful life compared to an industrial reference cast iron alloy without nanoparticles. Considering the significant enhancement in fatigue life observed in the results, there is an opportunity for redesigning spider geometries to achieve desired mass reduction and overall improvement in product quality and performance.

Published: August 2024

Islamic liberation theology emphasizes the importance of man's role as a caliph, who is God's representation on earth. This research seeks to understand the paradigm of human responsibility as a caliph in Islamic liberation. The method used in this research is a literature study. Data collection techniques used in this research were obtained from books, academic journals, the Qur'an and other articles relevant to the research problem. The data analysis technique used is the analysis and interpretation of the data obtained. The results of the study explain that the responsibility of human 'Khalifah' in liberation is very large; as a representation of God who is given the ability to think, humans are explained to be emancipatory entities over the chaotic condition of the earth. Realizing liberation in Islam is explained as a form of unity with God; divine affairs are not only matters of transcendental worship but also relate to harmony of human relations with other humans and also nature, and ultimately with liberation as a form of implementing God's orders. Islam explains the importance of liberation with the presence of the Qur'an, which is taught to liberate man from his condition.

Published: August 2024

This work focuses on a crucial subject in mediaeval religious discourse within the realm of education. The objective of this study is to gain a comprehensive comprehension of educational theology during the mediaeval Islamic era and intellectual culture. This will be achieved by examining the innovative, influential, and inherently intricate philosophical, kalām, and sufism ideologies, which have not been fully recognised until now. This study employs a discourse analysis methodology, which is commonly utilised to examine both oral and written conversation. This work provides a comprehensive analysis of the contributions made by mediaeval scholars to the field of educational theological discourse, focusing on the areas of philosophy, kalām, and sufism. The study’s findings demonstrate that mediaeval scholars effectively reconciled philosophical, theological (kalām), and mystical (sufism) perspectives in the field of educational theology. This was particularly evident in their treatment of the human nature, which they portrayed as both possessing free will and being subject to fate. This accommodating stance becomes remarkable, particularly because the content and approach of philosophy, kalām, and Sufism are frequently perceived as highly distinct or even conflicting.

Published: August 2024

Several theologians have discussed and articulated the presence and role of Africa and Africans in the Bible. Oden how Africa shaped the Christian mind. Furthermore, the presence of Africans in the Bible accentuates their spirituality and resonates with Anderson’s missional lens of contextualised evangelism. This article contributes to the work of these theologians in two ways. Firstly, it explores the geographical and religious backgrounds of one of the leaders in the Antiochian church, Lucius of Cyrene, and connects him to Africa, Africans and Anderson’s missional lens of contextualised evangelism. Secondly, based on the influence of Pentecostalism on the continent, it then applies that connection and contextualisation, through the African praxis of oral tradition and storytelling, to narrate an Ubuntu Pentecostal story of the gospel to an audience influenced by the Ubuntu worldview. This article applies a combination of literature study, social constructivism, an Ubuntu perspective and storytelling.

Published: August 2024

A field traffic volume survey is necessary to assess present traffic levels and predict future changes. These studies analyze changes in traffic volume, measure the impact of heavy vehicles and pedestrians on flow, and identify the quantity, kinds, and movements of highway vehicles at particular locations. They offer information on the ratios of vehicles, changes in flow at intersections, and the effectiveness of traffic management strategies. Channelization, road capacity estimation, signal timing, pavement design, and geometric design are all aided by this knowledge. As part of our thesis, we are doing a manual traffic volume survey at the Technical Junction utilizing counting methods. Passenger Car Units (PCUs) make estimates for mixed traffic in Jabalpur easier to grasp and aid in intersection control. The study's findings will guide traffic control and recommend actions to improve safety, such as extending public transport or widening roads. The optimal solutions for high-risk highway crossings, which are prone to accidents, are another goal of our thesis. It is essential to manage traffic efficiently based on volume and behavior. The thesis examines various interchange designs and appropriate junction planning. Google Maps images were utilized to project different intersections and make location maps.

Quantitative results from paired samples t-tests revealed significant improvements across all assessed aspects of writing, with mean differences indicating enhanced writing skills post-intervention. Qualitative data, collected through interviews, focus groups, reflective journals, and observations, corroborated these findings and provided deeper insights into the specific components of the workshops that were most effective. Students highlighted the value of peer review for receiving diverse feedback, the detailed guidance from instructor feedback, the collaborative learning fostered by group writing exercises, and the continuous improvement encouraged by iterative drafting. The integration of qualitative and quantitative findings suggests that each component of the writing workshops contributed uniquely to the overall improvement in writing proficiency. Despite the overall positive impact, challenges such as variability in peer feedback quality, the need for more frequent instructor interactions, and the time-intensive nature of iterative drafting were identified.

Sanur's charm makes it a tourist attraction which is now being transformed for the better with the development of Special Economic Zones which aims to foster new centers of economic growth in Indonesia, as well as encourage regional economic development. The SEZs in question are the Sanur SEZ (Health) and the Kura-Kura Bali SEZ (Tourism). The existence of this in the Sanur area must be supported by the availability of reliable human resources (HR). Human resource management or management is one of the most important aspects in an organization. The management of an organization is not only the leader who runs it, but also the members and parties concerned with the organization. The leader has a big role. Without a leader, it is difficult for an organization to have a clear and accountable strategy. Every leader must have a leadership spirit within him. In this century, there are enormous forces for social and organizational change, and this requires more holistic leadership. Spirituality emphasizes its existence to increase leadership effectiveness. Spiritual leadership is leadership that prioritizes morality, sensitivity, mental balance, inner wealth and ethics in interacting with other people. A hotel is a building, or company that provides a service. Generally, the services offered by hotels are in the form of accommodation. However, there are many more services that a hotel can offer that show its complexity in an organization. Furthermore, the relevance of spiritual leadership is questioned in hospitality organizations in Sanur.
