Intrusion detection and avoidance of black and grey hole attacks using AODV protocol based MANET
Authors: Shaikh Uzma , Paul Rajan Arokia 
Published: March 2018

Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) is a mobile network which has a large scale of self-directed nodes which is powerful to form a short-term means of communication network, without any use of prior communications. Due to its uniqueness like partial resources, varying loops and shortfall of controlling the networks, these networks are exposed to diverse network layer issues. The “Ad hoc on demand distance vector” is a self-starting directing procedure whose security is compromised with the distinct form of attack named as “Black-Hole” and “Grey Hole” attacks. This “malicious node” publicize as such, it contains the supreme track to the target during the route discovery process and thus interrupt the real communication and corrupt network performance. This paper introduces a new method in which a base node is introduced in the network that increases the probability of detecting multiple malicious nodes in the network and further separate them from taking part in any communication. It detects the corrupted nodes and prevent it by causing an effect for the communication. The proposed method has been experimented using NS2 and the results found to be efficient.

Online Social Networks(OSNs) have mutual themes such as information sharing, person-to-person interaction and creation of shared and collaborative content. Lots of micro blogging websites available like Twitter, Instagram, Tumblr. A standout amongst the most prominent online networking stages is Twitter. It has 313 million months to month dynamic clients which post of 500 million tweets for each day. Twitter allows users to send short text based messages with up to 140-character letters called "tweets". Enlisted clients can read and post tweets however the individuals who are unregistered can just read them. Due to the reputation it attracts the consideration of spammers for their vindictive points, for example, phishing true blue clients or spreading malevolent programming and promotes through URLs shared inside tweets, forcefully take after/unfollow valid clients and commandeer drifting subjects to draw in their consideration, proliferating obscenity. Twitter Spam has become a critical problem nowadays. By looking at the execution of an extensive variety of standard machine learning calculations, fundamentally expecting to distinguish the acceptable location execution in light of a lot of information by utilizing account-based and tweet content-based highlights.

Published: March 2018

In this paper the design and modeling of capacitive shunt switch for k-ka band applications is presented. The proposed model for this design is the crab leg flexure. In order to reduce the squeeze film air damping, the perforated switch with reduced spring constant is designed. Analysis of designed switch has been carried out on the various parameters of the switch such as damping factor, switching time, quality factor and Eigen frequencies in order to design a reliable switch. The results indicate that the obtained pull in voltage is 3.1V for the dielectric gap of 1mm and spring constant of 2.95N/m2. Switching time is observed as 1.2ms and 2.15ms for the gap of 1mm and 1.5mm respectively. The capacitance ratio i.e. Cdown/Cup is 211.11 for HfO2 and 100.741 for Si3N4. Resonant frequency is obtained as 14.45 KHz. Return loss is calculated as-44.85dB at a frequency of 1GHz and -25.68dB at a frequency of 27.5GHz and insertion loss is obtained as -0.0447db at 1GHz and -1.0379dB at 27.5GHz. The maximum peak isolation is observed as -59.5dB at 1GHz frequency and -71dB at 27.5GHz frequency.

Authors: Kumar Kiran , Anil Vineetha , Hamed Sara , Malik Ruwa 
Published: March 2018

The reason of this attempt was to demonstrate that seashells can be utilized as a partial replacement for fine aggregate in concrete for enhancing strength properties. Since seashells are widely available everywhere in coastal and seashore areas, and some of the concrete materials cannot be found easily everywhere. The strategies utilized as a part of this attempt was to replace burnt and crushed seashells with fine aggregate at 10%, 20% and 30% and compare it with each other and the traditional Ordinary Portland Cement concrete regarding mechanical properties following 7 and 28 days. In conclusion, despite the fact that seashells are generally accessible and can be effortlessly gathered from seashore and beach front regions, the process of burning and crushing requires a lot of energy and is tedious. In spite of the fact that the results demonstrated that utilizing 20% seashell to fine aggregate substitution has a somewhat higher in compressive and flexural properties than that of Ordinary Portland Cement concrete.
A Secure data packet transmission in wireless sensor network using HECC algorithm and Finding malicious packet
Authors: Venkateswara Rao M , Raghava Rao K 
Published: March 2018

The most important purpose of implementing to share secure knowledge in encrypted kind in network is to extend the safety of personal networks and its databases and to additionally give remotely infrastructure less secure services globally. In the current system approach ECC elliptic curve cryptography is being used to deal with the security issue in wireless sensor network. Thus the system still get a long packet transfer time, which can be further become a disadvantage while dealing with large data packet. Thus the system further and study require reducing the computation transfer time in between the packet. A proposed hyper elliptic curve mechanism for the cryptography can be used to opt out the best performance over the data packet transfer. In this scenario HECC algorithm is utilized and hence the result outcome shows the efficiency of the algorithm.
Analysis of QoS for PAT and EnOPATr System in WSN
Authors: Avinash S Devare , Krishna Mohan G 
Published: March 2018

In the situations of natural disasters, Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) is extensively used. Quality of Service (QoS) is an important parameter for ensuring effectiveness and robustness of service provided. QoS gets degraded when being applied in various applications of WSN. Qos expected in WSN applications gets reduced further. In this case, efficient use of the scarce resources is important to ensure continuous data transmission is ensured by proficient use of resources which are limited resources. There are many WSN protocols which focus on broadcasting of important information. But there are many parameters which get neglected by these protocols. For instance, normal data traffic gets neglected by these protocols. Hence, this research proposes EnOPATr system which is independent and distributed. The essential and normal data is handled at the same time in EnOPATr which achieves dependable and congestion free data. In a sensor node, power consumption can be reduced by decreasing the rate of packet retransmission. This is because of congestion in network. The simulation of the proposed system is done using NS-2 software which shows that the proposed system is able to reduce network congestion thereby improving the performance..

Designing a Federal Tax on Cannabis
Authors: Oglesby Patrick 
Published: March 2018

Abstract
A Federal tax on cannabis requires answers to several questions: 1. What should we tax? What should be the “base” or bases of a cannabis tax? (Possible bases include: price; weight of various product types [like flower, trim, and concentrate]; and THC content.) 2. Given any base, what should the tax rate be? 3. Should medical cannabis bear full tax? 4. Should marijuana advertising and selling expenses become deductible for federal income tax purposes? (That would treat cannabis businesses like other businesses; current Internal Revenue Code section 280E bars such deductions.) Recently introduced federal legislation provides answers, some more aligned with drug policy than others, to those questions.
Synthesis, characterization and photovoltaic properties of Mn-doped Sb2S3thin film
Authors: Horoz Sabit , Sahin Omer 
Published: March 2018

AbstractSynthesis and characterization of Mn-doped Sb2S3thin films (TFs) prepared by chemical bath deposition (CBD) at room temperature have been documented and their structural, optical, morphological, magnetic and photovoltaic properties have been examined for the first time. Their structural properties reveal that the Mn-doped Sb2S3TF has an orthorhombic phase structure of Sb2S3, and that the grain size of the Mn-doped Sb2S3TF (72.9 nm) becomes larger than that of undoped Sb2S3TF (69.3 nm). It has been observed that Mn content causes the Sb2S3TF band gap to decrease. This situation clearly correlates with band tailing due to the impurities that are involved. The morphological properties have revealed that the shape of the Mn-doped Sb2S3TF is more uniform than the shape of its undoped counterpart. The study on its magnetic properties has demonstrated that the Mn-doped Sb2S3TF exhibits paramagnetic behavior. Its paramagnetic Curie-Weiss temperature was found to be -4.1 K. This result suggests that there is an anti-ferromagnetic interaction between Mn moments in the Mn-doped Sb2S3TF. Incident photon to electron conversion efficiency (IPCE) and J-V measurements were also carried out for the Mn-doped Sb2S3TF for the first time. The results have indicated that the Mn-doped Sb2S3TF can be utilized as a sensitizer to improve the performance of solar cells. Another important observation on the photovoltaic properties of Mn-doped Sb2S3TF is that the spectral response range is wider than that of undoped Sb2S3TF. Our study suggests that the introduction of dopant could serve as an effective means of improving the device performance of solar cells.

Losing our Senses, an Exploration of 3D Object Scanning
Authors: Eve Stuart 
Published: March 2018

Abstract
3D scanning and photogrammetry of archaeological objects are now becoming commonplace. Virtual 3D scans are in many cases replacing the drawn record and are leading to objects being more easily accessed, shared and analysed. However, the wholesale production of 3D virtual replicas of artefacts is not always supported by adequate information regarding the multi-sensory nature of artefacts. The visual and geometric aspects are well represented, but the sounds and smells of the artefacts are lost. This paper explores the possible consequences of this and provides some indications of how we may remedy the situation, before our 3D archives become senseless.
“Bacon wrapped cancer”: the discursive construction of meat carcinogenicity
Authors: Fusari Sabrina 
Published: March 2018

Abstract
In 2015, the World Health Organization published a report on the carcinogenicity of red and processed meat (IARC, 2015. Carcinogenicity of consumption of red and processed meat. The Lancet Oncology 16(16). 1599–1600), attracting intense interest from both the general public and the scientific community. This study combines corpus approaches, Systemic Functional Linguistics and discourse analysis to investigate and compare scientific and animal rights movement reactions to the IARC 2015 report. Scientific reactions are exemplified by three research papers published immediately after the report; responses from animal rights campaigners are investigated through an analysis of texts taken from the website of the nongovernmental organization PETA. The aim is to explore how discourse not only describes, but also constructs meat carcinogenicity, in texts produced by two discourse communities (scientists and animal campaigners) which, for entirely different reasons, have an important stake in this issue. Qualitative (close reading) and quantitative (corpus-based) methods are combined, focusing on vocabulary, grammatical metaphor, and Appraisal (Martin, Jim and Peter White, 2005. The language of evaluation: Appraisal in English. Basingstoke: Palgrave Macmillan). The results show a high level of hybridity, discursive erasure (Stibbe, Arran, 2012. Animals erased: discourse, ecology, and reconnection with the natural world. Middletown: Wesleyan University Press), and some substantial differences in the discourse reactions to the IARC report by the two sources, reflecting the ideologies and ethical assumptions they espouse in their approach to the announcement that red and processed meat can cause cancer.

Published: March 2018

Abstract
π-Cipher, designed by Gligoroski et al., is a second round candidate of the CAESAR competition. The designers analyzed the bit diffusion of the cipher by examining the * operation and 1 round π-function. We improve this analysis by applying Strict Avalanche Criterion (SAC) test to * operation and reduced round versions of π-function for π 16-Cipher. We found out that * operation fails SAC test whereas all versions of π-function for π 16-Cipher pass the test.
Key Exchange Over Particular Algebraic Closure Ring
Authors: Sahmoudi Mohammed , Chillali Abdelhakim 
Published: March 2018

AbstractIn this paper, we propose a new method of Diffie-Hellman key exchange based on a non-commutative integral closure ring. The key idea of our proposal is that for a given non-commutative ring, we can define the secret key and take it as a common key to encrypt and decrypt the transmitted messages. By doing, we define a new non-commutative structure over the integral closure OLof sextic extension L, namely L is an extension of ℚ of degree 6 in the form ℚ(α, β), which is a rational quadratic and monogenic extension over a non-pure and monogenic cubic subfield K = ℚ(β).

The Draft Genome of the Invasive Walking Stick, Medauroidea extradendata, Reveals Extensive Lineage-Specific Gene Family Expansions of Cell Wall Degrading Enzymes in Phasmatodea
Authors: Brand Philipp , Lin Wei , Johnson Brian R 
Published: March 2018

Abstract
Plant cell wall components are the most abundant macromolecules on Earth. The study of the breakdown of these molecules is thus a central question in biology. Surprisingly, plant cell wall breakdown by herbivores is relatively poorly understood, as nearly all early work focused on the mechanisms used by symbiotic microbes to breakdown plant cell walls in insects such as termites. Recently, however, it has been shown that many organisms make endogenous cellulases. Insects, and other arthropods, in particular have been shown to express a variety of plant cell wall degrading enzymes in many gene families with the ability to break down all the major components of the plant cell wall. Here we report the genome of a walking stick, Medauroidea extradentata, an obligate herbivore that makes uses of endogenously produced plant cell wall degrading enzymes. We present a draft of the 3.3Gbp genome along with an official gene set that contains a diversity of plant cell wall degrading enzymes. We show that at least one of the major families of plant cell wall degrading enzymes, the pectinases, have undergone a striking lineage-specific gene family expansion in the Phasmatodea. This genome will be a useful resource for comparative evolutionary studies with herbivores in many other clades and will help elucidate the mechanisms by which metazoans breakdown plant cell wall components.
Лексика прибалтийско-финского и балтийского происхождения в русских говорах Северо-Запада

[full article, abstract in Russian; abstract in Lithuanian and English]
The problem of Baltic-Finnish, Baltic and Slavic (Russian) interaction has already been examined by us in various aspects: the differentiation of the Baltic-Finnish substratum in the North Russian dialects; the relationship of these Baltic and Baltic-Finnish origins in the Russian dialects of the Northwest; the Baltisms that are included in the Russian dialects through the medium of the Baltic-Finnish languages, etc.In this article, an attempt is made, on the basis of dialectal materials, to analyze the lexical units included in Russian dialects from the Baltic-Finnic languages with their final Baltsky source. The lexical data considered by us as lexemes of the Baltic-Finish origin are, in some cases, not native to this soil but represent earlier Baltic borrowings. These units of the Baltic-Finnish language continuum are its integral part; they often have a transformed form and semantics in comparison with the Baltic etymons. Later attempts were made either to expand or narrow the list of such units. Some of the lexemes of Baltic origin, being an integral part of the Baltic-Finnish continuum, had spread further to the North Russian dialects. This article gives examples of such mediated Baltics, which, due to the Baltic-Finnish nfluence, have spread widely in Russian dialects.

The collection and research of the Pskov folk speech have resulted in an understanding of the role of synchronic and diachronic relations of the Pskov dialect to its neighboring languages in the borderzone. Certain unique peculiarities of the Pskov dialect distinguish it from the East Slavic languages and all Russian dialects. The multi-faceted lexicographic work on the Pskov Regional Dictionary with Historical Data compels us to search for the explanation of specific dialectic aspects of certain words (кеп, всегли, мочигло, подпояхаться, приведи булку, etc.) and to find investigational solutions that change established academic judgments. Archaeological data are relevant for the study of the Pskovian ancestors’ contacts with the native speakers of other linguistic systems (Baltic and Finno-Ugrian in the first place). The 20th century has demonstrated that records of the folk speech throughout all stages of preservation must be accurate, as the consideration of even rare facts may lay the foundation of an important discovery and new theoretical conclusions. Lexicography reflects and preserves knowledge of the Pskov dialect’s past and present contacts with the Baltic and Finno-Ugrian people. Results of the academic research of unique aspects of the Pskov dialect (the lack of the second palatalization in bases кеп-, кев-, кед-; unusual consonant blends [гл], [кл]; the peculiar appearance of the sound [х]: мяхо, спрахывать; an exchange of sibilants and fricatives: суба “шуба”, etc.) have justified the special position of the dialect among East Slavic languages and all Russian dialects.
Редкие и уникальные элементы как инструмент исследователя былин

Published: March 2018

[full article, abstract in Russian; abstract in Lithuanian and English]
The author of this article shows on concrete patterns how the systematization and analysis of rare or unique elements of Russian epic songs (bylinas) help in solving some scientific problems. Non-standard details, formulas, personal names serve as reliable indicators that the texts are changed by recorders or editors, that they are dependent on books or even falsified. Besides, they help to reveal variants related by birth and to determine their genealogic relationship. Often, they reflect details of early medieval history or life conditions, contain poetic forms similar to the literary monuments of ancient Russia.However, their analysis must be done on the background of all recorded texts of bylinas. Authors who use only limited variants of epic songs (V. P. Anikin, B. A. Rybakov and others) sometimes come to doubtful or erroneous conclusions.
Речь Посполитая (Польша, Русь и Литва) как Святая Троица: средневековая предыстория поэтического образа Платона Костецкого (1861)
Authors: Темчин Сергей Юрьевич Юрьевич 
Published: March 2018

[full article, abstract in Russian; abstract in Lithuanian and English]
This paper focuses on a medieval parallel with the poetic image of Poland, Ruthenia and Lithuania as the Holy Trinity presented in the poem Nasza mołytwa (1861) composed in Ukrainian, although written in Polish script by the Galician journalist and writer Platon Kostec’kyj who was an adherent of the Jagiellonian idea. The parallel can be found in the Old Bulgarian apocryphal treatise Razumnik Ukaz. Its two versions have been preserved in Cyrillic manuscripts of the second half of the 14th through the mid-18th centuries. The corresponding passages of the two version are cited in the article in order to demonstrante that the second version coincides in some respects with the poetic image by Platon Kostec’kyj. It is quite possible that the author, who had been born to a family of a priest of the Eastern-rite Catholic Church, may have known the second version of Razumnik Ukaz and later used its ideas while compiling his poem Nasza mołytwa. This medieval parallel is useful for explaining the poetic image created in 1861.
