Cloud computing is an emerging computing environment which facilitates on demand services. As it contributes a large pool of computing resources, scheduling of tasks in an efficient manner is one of the main problems. Poor allocation of tasks affects the performance of the whole system. Hence it is very important to schedule the tasks for better utilization of resources by allocating them properly to particular resources in particular time. Efficient scheduling algorithms fulfill the user requirements and also satisfy the needs of the cloud service providers without affecting the performance of the environment. Execution Time based Sufferage Algorithm (ETSA), Cost and Completion Time based Sufferage Algorithm (CCTSA) and Modified Artificial Fish Swarm(MAFSA) Algorithm are efficient task scheduling approaches developed in cloud environment. These algorithms considered the parameters such as makespan, cost and resource utilization while scheduling the tasks and produced better performance. This paper presents a scheduling framework which converts the above said algorithms in to services and deployed in the cloud. Depends on the user’s requirements, the services will be delivered.

Broadband Wireless Access has drawn the fine attention due to the wide range of data requirement and user mobility all the time. Moreover, WiMAX provides the best QoE (Quality of Experience) which is based on the IEEE 802.16 standards; this includes several services such as data, video and audio. However, in order to provide the effective and smooth experience i.e. QoS scheduling plays one of the critical part. In past several mechanism has been proposed for effective scheduling however, through the research it is observed that it can be furthermore improvised hence in this we propose a mechanism named as OUS (Optimized Uplink Scheduling) which helps in improvising the QoS. In here, we have proposed a novel feedback architecture and proposed optimized scheduling which helps in computing the bandwidth request this in terms helps in reducing the delay as well as jitter. Moreover, the performance evaluation is performed through extensive simulation by varying the different SS and frequency and the results analysis confirms that our mechanism performs way better than the existing algorithm.

In recent years, the WSN has been widely used for building the DSS (Decision Support System) for solving the real-world problem. Moreover, out of several fields, one of the interesting field that requires DSS is monitoring of agriculture environment. Nowadays, Monitoring agriculture environment has become one of the essential field. A smart WSN system is capable of collecting as well as processing the huge data by monitoring the soil conditions, weather situation and others. Hence, IoT (Internet of Things) is employed in order to enhance the productivity and efficiency in the agriculture sector. IoT integrates the various technology such as RFI (Radio Frequency Identification), cloud computing, end-user applications and middleware system. Hence, it is obvious to obtain the higher efficiency for DC (Data Collection). In this paper shared based algorithm known as MMHC (Modified Multi-Hop Clustering) is proposed , this algorithm has three stage i.e. assembling , coupling and removing the redundant nodes. In this modified more than one node can be selected in the other two stage and the more than one node can be removed in third stage, this in terms helps in achieving higher efficiency. Later in order to evaluate the algorithm and prove the efficiency of our proposed algorithm, Comparative analysis is done with the Leach protocol based on the several parameter and it clearly shows that our model outperforms the Existing i.e. Leach algorithm.

Published: November 2019

The objective of this article is to analyse the different textual strategies with which María Rosal Nadales makes a transtextual construction in her anthology "Al este del andén". The use of this technique responds to different reasons: the active role that is assigned to the reader and the playful character in which the writing is framed, the tribute to and poetic concordance with other authors, the surprise effect and the irony, the postmodern fusion of classical culture and popular culture and, finally, the ethical-aesthetic commitment to point out contradictions, create new metaphors and encourage the reader's reflection together with new ways of thinking, especially around the figure of the woman poet and the representation of the female body.
Niemieckie ślady w reportażach Melchiora Wańkowicza z tomu „Anoda i katoda”. Reportaże z części „Kraj lat dziecinnych” w perspektywie leksykalnej
Authors: Guz Marzena
Published: November 2019

The subject of the study is German traces in Melchior Wańkowicz’s reportages published in the “Anoda i katoda” [“The Anode and Cathode”] series, in the part titled “Kraj lat dziecinnych” [The Land of Childhood]. This paper presents the vocabulary of German origin and Polish vocabulary referring to Germany and discusses common words and proper names, mostly of German origin, including quotations and lexis more or less assimilated in the Polish language. Appellatives are classified into parts of speech. The prevailing group of proper names comprises surnames, divided into two groups: German surnames and Polonised surnames. Another issue discussed in this article refers to the ways in which the presented vocabulary underwent Polonisation. Additionally, an interesting question is why the author, born in the Russian partition territory, uses so many words related to Germany. Wańkowicz refers to history, which justifies lexical items of German provenance, e.g. Ober-Ost. The presence of numerous surnames of German origin may result from Wańkowicz’s memories, e.g. Gebethner and Wolff are publishers of his story for children, and the surname Einstein is referred to in relation to Warsaw. As for the presence of appellatives, they were probably well-assimilated and frequently used, since most of them are not distinguished in any way in the text by the author. Some of the above-quoted Germanisms (appellatives and proper names) were Polonised in terms of vowels and consonants and through the application of Polish word-forming suffixes.
Pedestrians’ Non-Compliance with Road Safety Regulations in Dhaka City
Authors: Ehsan Shah Md. Azimul
Published: November 2019

Since the Dhaka City's population is increasing, there is an urgency for sustainable transport policy forDhaka to retain and expand the modal share of walking trips, which share the bulk of all short tripsmade. However, pedestrian facilities are perhaps the most neglected and unattended ones in transportplanning of Dhaka city. Day by day, the rate of fatality is increasing in an unabated manner. If the ratehas to be controlled, it is imperative to know the various factors which result in the violation of trafficregulations by the pedestrians. This paper aims to know the various underlying reasons behind thepedestrians' non-compliance with the road safety regulations using both qualitative and quantitative toolsof social research. The findings of the study suggest that the existing road crossing facilities (overpass,zebra crossing) are inadequate as per demand. Poor monitoring and maintenance of the overpasses havemade them a hub for hawkers, beggars, addicts which demotivates the pedestrians in using them. Failureto provide and maintain road signs and markings, lack of education of road users, poor enforcement oftraffic regulations etc. are some of the other factors which result to traffic rules violation by thepedestrians. The study provides a modest suggestion to the government that they should think of givingroad safety issue a priority in the policy agenda. Moreover, necessary steps should be taken to increasethe current road crossing facilities along with the formation of a watchdog body that will monitor theviolations from time to time. Lastly, mass awareness building programs have to be initiated for educatingboth the pedestrians and the drivers regarding the road safety regulations.
