In today’s competitive scenario, it is essential for software developers to perform rigorous testing. It helps them to satisfy the demand for reliable software systems. Various external and internal factors like human expertise, fault dependency, code complexity, dynamic approaches etc. affect the process of fault removal. Hence, along the time-line fault removal rate may change. The point on time-line beyond which rates are altered is termed as the change point. Also in many practical situations, the number of failures experienced may not coincide with the number of faults removed from the system. This ratio is computed by Fault Reduction Factor (FRF). Here, we have proposed testing effort based model considering effort-dependent FRF with and without change point for gauging the failure pattern of a software system. The FRF has been modelled by logistic curve. The developed models have been verified using real-life software fault datasets. Model parameters are estimated and various performance criteria are employed to check the goodness of fit. Later, we have developed a software cost model to determine the optimal Release testing effort that minimizes total expected cost of fault removal during testing phase and operational phase of software life cycle subject to a reliability constraint. A numerical study has been also taken to demonstrate the results. Cost sensitivity analysis has been carried out to identify the crucial cost component and role of each cost component on optimal testing effort and overall cost of development.

In the recent twentieth century, medical beds are subjected to advanced techniques particularly in the domain of making it intelligent for patient care. The past fifteen years have brought out various changes in the smart-bed technologies concept but no legit proof for existence of the project were shown. These and other earlier systems more often utilize at least one pushbutton or pressure-sensitive type switches to enact the different correspondence and control capacities. The proposed aim is to build a prototype bed which can respond to basic commands and helps the user to recline, incline and command for a food table which also monitors the minimum spacing required for the bed to incline or recline using a simple mechanism and therefore, sends a feedback to the system warning about the spacing between them. The voice recognition (VR3) module is used to detect the keywords for the trained voice when the user is passing commands to perform any of the actions such as Inclination, Reclination, Upward, Downward etc. Functions like bedroom necessities, turning on appliances and various other activities can also be carried out as an extended function.

This study investigated the mixing of rubber to residential concrete mixtures to reduce the use of aggregates that will soon deplete natural resources. The rubber was laminated with steel before adding it to the concrete mix in order to improve its strength and stability. Using scrap tires for this experiment will not only help reduce the rubber waste in a country but also reduce the overall weight of a residential building to help ease the effects of an earthquake. Four concrete samples were made with 0, 5, 7.5 and 10 percent replacement by volume. The compressive strength and weight of the concrete mix was measured in this study to determine its practical application. The product exhibited minimal compressive changes and weight changes as the replacement was increasing. Although the strength decreased, beneficial weight change was observed since it will be less rigid when structurally used. The compressive strength of the samples with laminate rubber strips were more than 20 MPa and this suggests that it could be used for residential concrete like slabs, footings, pavements, and concrete stumps.

Biosorption is one of the most useful techniques for environmental remediation especially for heavy metal pollution. Kinetics of the biosorption is of great significance to evaluate the performance of a given adsorbent and gain insight into the underlying mechanisms. Presently, the removal of chromium (VI) from aqueous solutions using Eugenia jambolana Lam. (commonly known as Jamun) seed investigated. Adsorption study were performed in batch adsorption techniques to evaluate various parameters like pH of the solution, time of contact between adsorbent and adsorbate, dose of adsorbent, chromium ion concentration and solution temperature. The adsorption of Cr(VI) increased with dose of adsorbent and reached maximum at 1.0g/ 100mL at pH 6. Kinetic models like pseudo first and second-order were used to correlate the adsorption data. For both kinetic models, kinetic constants were computed and the second-order rate expression fitted well with high correlation coefficient. Two isotherm models, namely; Freundlich and Langmuir isotherm were used to know adsorption mechanism and Langmuir correlated the data well inferring a monolayer adsorption at the binding sites on the surface of the adsorbent. It may be concluded that Eugenia jambolana Lam. seed can be used as an efficient adsorbent for removing Cr (VI) from aqueous solutions.

Diabetic Retinopathy is a medical condition in which damage occurs to the retina due to diabetes mellitus. The diagnosis of Diabetic Retinopathy through colored fundus images stand in need of experienced clinicians to identify the presence and significance of many small features, which makes it a time consuming task. In this paper, we propose a CNN based approach to detect Diabetic Retinopathy in fundus images. Data used to train the model is prepocessed by a new segmentation technique using Gabor filters. Due to small dataset, data augmentation is done to get enough data to train the model. Our segmentation model detects intricate features in the fundus images and detect the presence of DR. A high-end Graphics Processor Unit (GPU) is used to train the model efficiently. The publicly available Kaggle Dataset is used to demonstrate impressive results, particularly for a high-level classification task. On the training dataset of 14,650 images, our proposed CNN achieves a specificity of 94% and an accuracy of 69% on 3,660 validation images.

The present research aims to enhance the open circuit voltage of fabricated solar cell through Anti–Reflection (AR) coating on the cell substrate. Solar cell is fabricate using ITO Glass, titanium dioxide, magnesium and redox. Calcium Titanium Oxide (CaTiO3) is chosen as the AR coating material for constructing thin film layer on fabricated solar cell. Selected AR coating material have unique features such as orthorhombic, biaxial, non-radioactive and non-magnetic with electron bulk density of 3.91 g/cm3 respectively. Commonly, voltage generation of the multi crystalline solar cell is low (12% to 14%) due to much reflection of inward sun radiation. Deposition of AR coating on the substrate (fabricated solar cell) can minimize the reflection loss of sun radiation. The maximum improvement in solar cell efficiency after AR coating has been reported as 19.3%. Sputter coating technique is more favorable for thin film coating due to its salient features like uniform coating thickness controlled by time. This uniform coating thickness absorbs more sun radiation. Radio Frequency (RF) magnetron sputter coating technique is utilized in the current research to deposit CaTiO3 on solar cells. Prior to coating, the AR material is pelletized using Universal Testing Machine (UTM). The substrate are coated under varying time duration of 15-minutes, 30-minutes and 45-minutes in order to analyze the variation in open circuit voltage. The deposition of coating on the substrate are confirmed using SEM and FESEM. Open circuit voltage of controlled atmosphere studies for pure and AR coated solar cells (fabricated) are examined. Controlled atmosphere tests of AR coated thin films are conducted by placing the substrate inside a solar simulator and the solar simulator consist of IR thermometer (To measure Temperature), solar power meter (To measure Radiation) and multimeter (To measure Open circuit voltage). Neodym daylight lamp is used to control the radiation in solar simulator. The improvement in cell voltage proves that thin film AR coating considerably minimizes the reflective loss.

Selecting a new site for retail business expansion has always been a challenge for decision-makers. It requires not only the sales data but the geographic data in order to decide the potential location for their respective purposes. Proper use of the data could lead to better decision-making. To date, common techniques such as geographic information system (GIS) and multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) have been applied to site selection. These methods, however, require not only extensive human effort but more importantly, difficult to validate the importance of identified variables. In this work, sales performance is proposed as a function of geospatial features to determine the suitability of a retail location. The main aim of this study was to identify features attributed to optimal site selection which in turn facilitate sales prediction for a telecommunication company in Malaysia. In this research, various feature selection techniques and machine learning models were deployed for sales prediction in order to determine the suitability of the new location. The findings show the top 3 feature selections are prediction step in VSURF, random search, and fuse learner with search strategy; the top 3 families are boosting, random forest and bagging; and the top 3 classifiers are C5.0, rf, and parRF. The crossover combination of the top feature selection-classifier can produce the AUC of more than 0.75. The highest AUC, 0.8354 was obtained through random search-parRF.

A laboratory needs at least one technician to maintain the laboratory’s activity every day. The technicians should prevent any technical interference in a daily learning activity. The technicians must be placed in a different lab the next day to check the work of the technician previously. This scheduling model has assigned 4 technicians into 3 laboratories in a month. We proposed a mathematical model for multi-objective optimization of laboratory technicians scheduling since it has many objective functions such as avoid collisions, workload balancing of technicians, and works distribution in the laboratories. We presented a Binary Genetic Algorithm to find the best technicians scheduling that can be used to support daily operations. As a result, we noticed that Binary GA could effectively be used in daily operational since the computing time was relatively short in finding the best laboratory technicians scheduling. From ten times of testing, the best solution needs 285.406s to calculate with the minimum function value is 2.

Increase in population increases the power demand. Solar is one of the natural resource used for generation of electricity. Solar panels are used for generation. If any scratch or small damage occurs in the panel then it will cause degradation in output. To improve the energy efficiency the damages should be detected. For deducting the damages various techniques had been used but they are time consuming process and are of high cost. This project proposes that whenever fault is occurred it is automatically detected with the help of internet of things. Each solar panel is connected to a current sensor if a fault occurs due to cracks on the surface of the panel then the current values in the damaged panel gets varied. This information is obtained with the help of current sensor. Then these values are sent to the monitoring centre through WI-FI module. By this the fault can be easily detected and automatically send to the engineers.

This paper deals with the implementation of sub Nyquist sampling for the efficient wideband spectrum sensing in cognitive radio network. Cognitive radio is a very promising technology in the field of wireless communication which has drastically changed the spectral dynamics through the opportunistic utilization of frequency band by the secondary users when it is not utilized by the primary users. The complexity of spectral detection strategy is reduced using the compressive sensing method. Bayesian technique is utilized in the compressive sampling to deal with uncertainty of the process and increase the speed of detection. This technique recovers the wideband signals even with few measurements via Laplace prior and Toeplitz matrix. Sparse signal recovery algorithm is used for the extraction of primary user frequency location. The condition of the detection of primary user even in the low regulated transmission from unlicensed user is been resolved in this paper through Wavelet transform. This approach enables the evaluation of all possible hypotheses simultaneously in the global optimization framework. Simulation analysis is performed to verify the effectiveness of the proposed technique over the cognitive radio network.

Continuous integration and Continuous Deployment (CICD) is a trending practice in agile software development. Using Continuous Integration helps the developers to find the bugs before it goes to the production by running unit tests, smoke tests etc. Deploying the components of the application in Production using Continuous Deployment, using this way, the new release of the application reaches the client faster. Continuous Security makes sure that the application is less prone to vulnerabilities by doing static scans on code and dynamic scans on the deployed releases. The goal of this study is to identify the benefits of adapting the Continuous Integration -Continuous Deployment in Application Software. The Pipeline involves Implementation of CI – CS - CD on a web application ClubSoc which is a Club Management Application and using unsupervised machine learning algorithms to detect anomalies in the CI-CS-CD process. The Continuous Integration is implemented using Jenkins CI Tool, Continuous Security is implemented using Veracode Tool and Continuous Deployment is done using Docker and Jenkins. The results have shown by adapting this methodology, the author is able to improve the quality of the code, finding vulnerabilities using static scans, portability and saving time by automation in deployment of applications using Docker and Jenkins. Applying machine learning helps in predicting the defects, failures and trends in the Continuous Integration Pipeline, whereas it can help in predicting the business impact in Continuous Delivery. Unsupervised learning algorithms such as K-means Clustering, Symbolic Aggregate Approximation (SAX) and Markov are used for Quality and Performance Regression analysis in the CICD Model. Using the CICD model, the developers can fix the bugs pre-release and this will impact the company as a whole by raising the profit and attracting more customers. The Updated Application reaches the client faster using Continuous Deployment. By Analyzing the failure trends using Unsupervised machine learning, the developers might be able to predict where the next error is likely to happen and prevent it in the pre-build stage.
