2. | SAR Image Segmentation Based On Hybrid PSOGSA Optimization Algorithm
SAR Image Segmentation Based On Hybrid PSOGSA Optimization AlgorithmAbstract: Image segmentation is useful in many applications. It can identify the regions of interest in a scene or annotate the data. It categorizes the existing segmentation algorithm into region-based segmentation, data clustering, and edge-base segmentation. Region-based segmentation includes the seeded and unseeded region growing algorithms, the JSEG, and the fast scanning algorithm. Due to the presence of speckle noise, segmentation of Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images is still a challenging problem. We proposed a fast SAR image segmentation method based on Particle Swarm Optimization-Gravitational Search Algorithm (PSO-GSA). In this method, threshold estimation is regarded as a search procedure that examinations for an appropriate value in a continuous grayscale interval. Hence, PSO-GSA algorithm is familiarized to search for the optimal threshold. Experimental results indicate that our method is superior to GA based, AFS based and ABC based methods in terms of segmentation accuracy, segmentation time, and Thresholding.Reference [1] R.

3. | Deblurring, Localization and Geometry Correction of 2D QR Bar Codes Using Richardson Lucy Method
Deblurring, Localization and Geometry Correction of 2D QR Bar Codes Using Richardson Lucy MethodAbstract: This paper includes the recognition of 2D QR bar codes. This paper describes the deblurring, localization and geometry correction of 2D QR bar codes. The images captured are blurred due motion between the image and the camera. Hence the image containing the QR barcode cannot be read by QR reader. To make the QR barcode readable the images are need to be deblurred. Lucy Richardson method and Weiner Deconvolution Method is used to deblurr and localize the bar code. From both of the methods Lucy Richardson Method is best because this method takes less time for execution than the other method. Simulink Model is used for the Geometry correction of the QR bar code. In future, we would like to investigate the generalization of our algorithm to handle more complicated motion blur.Key words: 2D QR bar code image, smart phone camera, Richardson Lucy Method, Vision assistant module from lab view.

4. | A Combined Approach for Worm-Hole and Black-Hole Attack Detection in MANET
A Combined Approach for Worm-Hole and Black-Hole Attack Detection in MANETAbstract: Mobile ad hoc network is a kind of wireless network, in this network all nodes are connected through the wireless links and perform cooperative communication.Due to limited radio range of these devices any time can leave or join the network. Therefore the routing techniques are responsible for the network organization and communication flow. Due to this the performance of MANET is low as compared with the traditional wired communication networks. In addition of that network is suffers from the probability of attacks. Thus in this paper MANET routing strategy and their attacks are investigated and learned. In addition of that in order to secure the communication recent approaches of security in MANET also investigated. Finally a new algorithm for prevention of malicious attack in MANET is suggested. Additionally the based on the concluded facts, future extension of the proposed work is also suggested.Key words: MANET, Routing, routing attacks, malicious node detection and prevention Reference [1] T.

5. | Study and Analysis of Six Stroke Engine
Study and Analysis of Six Stroke EngineAbstract: Six Stroke engine, the name itself indicates a cycle of six strokes out of which two are useful power strokes. According to its mechanical design, the six-stroke engine with external and internal combustion and double flow is similar to the actual internal reciprocating combustion engine. However, it differentiates itself entirely, due to its thermodynamic cycle and a modified cylinder head with two supplementary chambers: combustion and an air heating chamber, both independent from the cylinder. In this the cylinder and the combustion chamber are separated which gives more freedom for design analysis. In addition to the two valves in the four stroke engine two more valves are incorporated which are operated by a piston arrangement. The Six Stroke is thermodynamically more efficient because the change in volume of the power stroke is greater than the intake stroke and the compression stroke. The main advantages of six stroke engine includes reduction in fuel consumption by 40%, two power strokes in the six stroke cycle, dramatic reduction in pollution, adaptability to multi fuel operation. Six stroke engine's adoption by the automobile industry would have a tremendous impact on the environment and world economy .Reference [1] Altin R, Cetinkaya S, Yucesu HS.

9. | Evaluation of Euclidean and Manhanttan Metrics In Content Based Image Retrieval System
Evaluation of Euclidean and Manhanttan Metrics In Content Based Image Retrieval SystemAbstract: Content-based Image Retrieval is all about generating signatures of images in database and comparing the signature of the query image with these stored signatures. Color histogram can be used as signature of an image and used to compare two images based on certain distance metric. Distance metrics Manhattan distance (L1 norm) and Euclidean distance (L2 norm) are used to determine similarities between a pair of images. In this paper, Corel database is used to evaluate the performance of Manhattan and Euclidean distance metrics. The experimental results showed that Manhattan showed better precision rate than Euclidean distance metric. The evaluation is made using Content based image retrieval application developed using color moments of the Hue, Saturation and Value(HSV) of the image and Gabor descriptors are adopted as texture features.Key words: Content-Based Image Retrieval, CBIR systems, Image Database, Color histograms, color scale images, Euclidean Distance method, Manhattan distance, Gabor wavelet.

10. | Reactive Power Compensation and Control via Shunt Reactors and Under Ground Power Cables
Reactive Power Compensation and Control via Shunt Reactors and Under Ground Power CablesAbstract: In this paper we will cover the techniques used locally to accomplish the reactive power compensation. First, the importance of reactive power compensation is explained through defining the different types of electrical power and showing the effect of power compensation on the electric power network quality. The power under ground cable is the first technique used to compensate for the inductance of overhead transmission lines and power transformers during heavy loading of the network. Then, we explore the application of the two types of shunt reactors in different locations of the network to compensate for the capacitance of the network during light loading. Finally, a conclusion is presented.Key words: compensation, reactive power, shunt reactor, under ground power cable. Reference [1] T. J.

12. | Thermal-Acoustic Comfort Index for Workers of Poultry Houses Using Fuzzy Modeling
Thermal-Acoustic Comfort Index for Workers of Poultry Houses Using Fuzzy ModelingAbstract: Thermal-acoustic comfort is considered an essential factor for the performance of industrial activities. As well as harm the health of the workers, environments outside the adequate conditions provoke losses in productivity. The objective of this work was to develop a system capable of evaluating and classifying the working environment in poultry houses. A working regime of 8 hours per day in a poultry house was simulated and the results provide support for the classification of the comfort level based on different climate and noise conditions. Two input variables were used: wet bulb globe temperature (WBGT) and noise level (dB), and the correspondent output variable was the human welfare index (HWI). The results indicate that the proposed methodology is a promising technique for the determination of the level of thermal comfort endured by poultry house workers, capable of assisting in making decisions on control of the working environment.Key words: human welfare, environment control, mathematical modeling Reference [1] SAMPAIO, C.

Laboratory Proposal for Studies on Poultry EnvironmentAbstract: The goal of the present work was the instrumentation and validation of a laboratory equipped with a control system for air temperature (tair), relative air humidity (RH) and air velocity (V) to study the environment for small animals. An experimental was equipped with two air conditioners to manage basic tair and RH in order to work. Four wind tunnels, with partial recirculation of air were installed in the room. Each tunnel features two electric heaters and two humidifiers divided into two operation stages. The air velocity is manually controlled by potentiometers connected to exhaust fans. A system to acquire data and control climatic variables was installed in the laboratory and it consisted of a datalogger, a multiplexer channel, a relay controller , tair and RH sensors, sensors for measuring water temperature and digital helix anemometer to measure air velocity. The results showed that the system presented deviations of ± 0.19 °C, ± 0.75% and ± 0.05 m s-1 for tair, RH and V, respectively, when comparing the values measured inside the tunnels to those previously established (setpoints).Key words: controlled environment, instrumentation, climatic chamber Reference [1] Cordeiro, M.

16. | Improving Structural Limitations of Pid Controller For Unstable Processes
Improving Structural Limitations of Pid Controller For Unstable ProcessesAbstract: PID controllers have structural limitations which make it impossible for a good closed-loop performance to be achieved. A step response with high overshoot and oscillations always results. In controlling processes with resonances, integrators and unstable transfer functions, the PI-PD controller provides a satisfactory closed-loop performance. In this paper, a simple approach to extracting parameters of a PI-PD controller from parameters of the conventional PID controller is presented so that a good closed-loop system performance is achieved. Simulated results from this formation are carried out to show the efficacy of the technique proposed.Key words: Disturbance rejection, PID controller, Integrating process, PI-PD, Unstable process.

17. | Empirical Determination of Locations of Unstable and Blank Gsm Signal Network Receptions in a Cell Site
Empirical Determination of Locations of Unstable and Blank Gsm Signal Network Receptions in a Cell SiteAbstract: In a GSM network coverage area there exist locations where network signal reception is always either unsteady or blank. These problems are the cause of intermittent call receptions or no network reception at some locations in cell sites. This paper discusses a practical work carried out in a cell site located in a remote area in Eastern Nigeria to determine such locations. To do that, received signal field strength measurements were initially conducted at 3m interval starting from 100m away from the base Station to determine the suspected locations of unsteady and blank network receptions in the field. Further extensive measurements were then taken at each of the suspect locations. Analyses of the data obtained shows that a lot of such phenomenon may exist in cell sites.Key words: cell site, blank network reception, fading, unsteady network reception Reference [1] A.

19. | Aerobic Biodegradation of Vinegar Containing Waste Water by Mixed Culture Bacteria from Soil in Fluidised Bed Reactor
Aerobic Biodegradation of Vinegar Containing Waste Water by Mixed Culture Bacteria from Soil in Fluidised Bed ReactorAbstract: The present study is focussed on biodegradation of the vinegar effluents by mixed culture bacteria isolated from the soil. The presence of acetic acid in the vinegar plant effluent contaminates the water and soil erodes if the effluent is released into the soil, ultimately contaminate the ground water table. It is necessary to remove acetic acid from the vinegar plant effluents. The technique used in this study in order to remove biodegradable matter is Aerobic Biodegradation. Varying initial concentrations of vinegar is synthetically prepared in the laboratory, which resembled the effluent released from the vinegar plant by adding the vinegar of 1%, 4%, 7% to 1250 ml water respectively. The mixed culture bacteria from the soil grown on standard Lysogeny Broth medium and introduced into the aerobic fluidized bed reactor after 24 hours and the bacteria (Bacilli, Cocci)biodegraded the organic matter i.e., acetic acid present in the sample. Samples analysed for vinegar concentration, DO and salinity, electrical conductivity for every 24hr, 48hr, and 72hr by volumetric analysis. The pH, DO, salinity, electrical conductivity and concentrations of the each samples measured for every 24hr, 48hr, and 72hr respectively. The pH of 1%, 4% & 7% samples varied from 6 to 9, 5 to 8.5 & 3 to 7 respectively from day1 to day3. The dissolved oxygen altered from 4ppm to 1ppm for 1% sample from day1 to day3 and from 5ppm to 2ppm for 4% vinegar sample for day1 o day3. Electrical conductivity of 1% vinegar sample increased from 52 to 58 from day1 to day3.Key words: Fluidised bed reactor, pH, Electrical Conductivity, Dissolved Oxygen, Aerobic Biodegradation.

Magneto-Convection of Immiscible Fluids in a Vertical Channel Using Robin Boundary ConditionsAbstract: The effects of viscous dissipation on fully developed two fluid magnetohydrodynamic flow in the presence of constant electric field in a vertical channel is investigated using Robin boundary conditions. The fluids in both the regions are incompressible, electrically conducting and the transport properties are assumed to be constant. The plate exchanges heat with an external fluid. Both conditions of equal and different reference temperatures of the external fluid are considered. First, the simple cases of the negligible Brinkman number or the negligible Grashof number are solved analytically. Then, the combined effects of buoyancy forces and viscous dissipation are analyzed by a perturbation series method valid for small values of perturbation parameter. To relax the condition on the perturbation parameter, the flow fields are solved by using the differential transform method. The results are presented graphically for different values of the mixed convection parameter, Hartman number, perturbation parameter, viscosity ratio, width ratio, conductivity ratio and Biot numbers for both open and short circuit. The effects of these parameters on the Nusselt number at the walls is also drawn. It is found that the solutions obtained by perturbation method and differential transform method agree very well for small values of perturbation parameter.Reference [1] Sparrow EM, Cess, RD (1961) Effect of magnetic field on free convection heat transfer.

22. | Performance Simulation Of Photovoltaic System Battery
Performance Simulation Of Photovoltaic System BatteryAbstract: Solar energy, despite being inexhaustible, has a major shortcoming; it is intermittent. As a result, there's a need for it to be stored for later use. The widely used energy storage in photovoltaic system applications is the lead-acid battery and the knowledge of its state-of-charge (SOC) is important in effecting efficient control and energy management. However, SOC cannot be measured while the battery is connected to the system. This study adjusts and validates two estimation models: battery state-of-charge model using ampere-hour counting method and battery charge voltage model. For the battery state-of-charge model, the SOC is estimated by integrating the charge/discharge current over time while the battery charge voltage characteristic response is modelled by using the equation-fit method which expresses the battery charge voltage variations by a 5th order polynomial in terms of the state-of-charge and current. These models are realized using the MATLAB program. The battery charge voltage model is corrected for errors which may result from reduced charge voltage due to variation of solar radiation using the battery state-of-charge model. Moreover, the starting SOC needed in the state-of-charge model is estimated using the charge voltage model. The accuracies of the models are verified using various laboratory experiments.Key words: Charging efficiency, Lead–acid battery, Photovoltaic system, State-of-charge Reference [1] O.

Probabilistic Design of Helical Coil Spring for Longitudinal Invariance by Using Finite Element MethodAbstract: The study represents new approach to design helical coil spring. Response surface modeling and analysis of open coiled helical spring by considering longitudinal and invariance have been carried out. Design parameters are wire diameter, spring diameter, height, number of turns elastic modulus in X and Z direction, poissions ratio, force. Simple equations is proposed which gives value of compressive stress of helical coil spring by carrying out regression analysis. It is observed that force and material property are significant parameters which affect compressive stress because their P value is 1. Relationship among design parameters and compressive stress has been obtained.Key words: Simulation, open coiled spring by FEA and Response surface modeling Reference [1] Saurabh Singh- "Optimization of Design of Helical Coil Suspension System by Combination of Conventional Steel and Composite Material in Regular Vehicle" International Journal of Applied Engineering Research, ISSN 0973-4562 Vol.7 No.11 (2012) [2].

Multi Input PV System
Coupled Inductor Based High Step-Up DC-DC Converter for Multi Input PV SystemAbstract: With the shortage of the energy and ever increasing of the oil price, research on the renewable and green energy sources, especially the solar arrays and the fuel cells, becomes more and more important. How to achieve high step-up and high efficiency DC/DC converters is the major consideration in the renewable power applications due to the low voltage of PV arrays and fuel cells. In this paper a coupled inductor dc-dc converter for photovoltaic system is proposed. The circuit configuration of the proposed converter is very simple. Thus, the proposed converter has higher step-up and step-down voltage gains than the conventional bidirectional dc–dc boost/buck converter. Under same electric specifications for the proposed converter and the conventional bidirectional boost/buck converter, the average value of the switch current in the proposed converter is less than the conventional bidirectional boost/buck converter. The operating principles have been applied to multi input photovoltaic system and outputs have been observed.Index terms: boost, pv array, coupled inductor, stepup/step down. Reference [1].

26. | ROI Based Image Compression in Baseline JPEG
ROI Based Image Compression in Baseline JPEGAbstract: To improve the efficiency of standard JPEG compression algorithm an adaptive quantization technique based on the support for region of interest of compression is introduced. Since this is a lossy compression technique the less important bits are discarded and are not restored back during decompression. Adaptive quantization is carried out by applying two different quantization to the picture provided by the user. The user can select any part of the image and enter the required quality for compression. If according to the user the subject is more important than the background then more quality is provided to the subject than the background and vice- versa. Adaptive quantization in baseline sequential JPEG is carried out by applying Forward Discrete Cosine Transform (FDCT), two different quantization provided by the user for compression, thereby achieving region of interest compression and Inverse Discrete Cosine Transform (IDCT) for decompression. This technique makes sure that the memory is used efficiently. Moreover we have specifically designed this for identifying defects in the leather samples clearly.Reference [1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_file_for mats#JPEG.2FJFIF; Wikipedia [2] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JPEG;Wikipedi a [3] A method for signalling block-adaptive quantization in baseline sequential JPEG Kakarala, R. ; Bagadi, R.

An Experimental Investigation on Strengths Characteristics of Concrete with the Partial Replacement of Cement by Marble Powder Dust and Sand by Stone DustAbstract: The present work is directed towards developing a better understanding on strengths characteristics of concrete using marble dust powder as a partial replacement of cement. The Dissertation work is carried out with M30 grade concrete for which the marble powder is replaced by 0%, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20% by weight of cement. For all the mixes compressive, flexural and split tensile strengths are determined at different days of curing. In addition to this, sand is replaced with stone dust (SD) by 10%, 20% and 30% along with cement is replaced with MP by 0%, 10% and 20% by weight for M30 grades of concrete. Only 3 cubes were casted for various percentage replacements of sand with SD and cement with MP for 7days and 28 days. The results of the present investigation indicate that marble dusts incorporation results insignificant improvements in the compressive, flexural and split tensile strengths of concrete upto 10% of replacement and also the results of the present investigation indicate that stone dusts and marble dust incorporation results insignificant improvements in the compressive strengths of concrete upto 20% of SD and 10% of MP of replacement.Key words: RMP, MP, SD, compressive, flexural and split tensile strengths.

An Area-efficient Montgomery Modular Multiplier for CryptosystemsAbstract: RSA is one of the most widely adopted public key algorithms at present and it requires repeated modular multiplications to accomplish the computation of modular exponentiation. A famous approach to implement modular multiplication in hardware circuits is based on the Montgomery modular multiplication algorithm since it has many advantages. To speed up the encryption/decryption process, many high-speed Montgomery modular multiplication algorithms and hardware architectures employ carry-save addition. But CSA based architecture increases the area. In this paper, in order to reduce the area of the CSA based multiplier, an area-efficient algorithm called Double Add Reduce algorithm is introduced. Then the performance analysis of the new design with the previous had done for comparison.Key words: Area-efficient architecture, Carry save addition, Cryptography, Double add reduce algorithm, Montgomery modular multiplier.

32. | An Energy-Efficient Lut-Log-Bcjr Architecture Using Constant Log Bcjr Algorithm
An Energy-Efficient Lut-Log-Bcjr Architecture Using Constant Log Bcjr AlgorithmAbstract: Error correcting codes are used to correct the data from the corrupted signal due to noise and interference. There are many error correcting codes. Among them turbo codes is considered to be the best because it is very close to the Shannon theoretical limit. The MAP algorithm is commonly used in the turbo decoder. Among the different versions of the MAP algorithm Constant log BCJR algorithm have less complexity and good error performance. The Constant log BCJR algorithm can be easily designed using look up table which reduces the memory consumption. The proposed Constant log BCJR decoder is designed to decode two blocks of data at a time, this increases the throughput. The complexity of the decoder is further reduced by the use of the add compare select (ACS) units and registers. The proposed decoder is simulated using Xilinx ISE and synthesized using Sparten3 FPGA and found out that Constant log BCJR decoder utilized less amount of memory and power than the LUT log BCJR decoder.Index Terms: Add compare select(ACS),turbo codes, Constant log BCJR Algorithm.

1. | Design and Analysis of Sequential Elements for Low Power Clocking System with Low Power Techniques
Design and Analysis of Sequential Elements for Low Power Clocking System with Low Power TechniquesAbstract: This paper proposed the design of sequential elements for low power clocking system with low low power techniques for saving the power. Power consumption is a major bottleneck of system performance and is listed as one of the top three challenges in International Technology Roadmap for Semiconductor 2008. In practice, a large portion of the on chip power is consumed by the clock system which is made of the clock distribution network and flop-flops. In this paper, various design techniques for a low power clocking system are surveyed. Among them is an effective way to reduce capacity of the clock load by minimizing number of clocked transistors. To approach this, proposed a novel clocked pair shared flip-flop which reduces the number of local clocked transistors by approximately 40%. A 24% reduction of clock driving power is achieved. In addition, low swing and double edge clocking, can be easily incorporated into the new flip-flop to build clocking systems. As the feature size becomes smaller, shorter channel lengths result in increased sub-threshold leakage current through a transistor when it is off. Dual sleep and sleepy stack methods are proposed to avoid static power consumption; the flip flops are simulated using HSPICE.Key words: Avg power, Dual sleep, Flip-flops, low power, Sleepy stack.

2. | Grid-Connected Pv-Fc Hybrid System Power Control Using Mppt And Boost Converter
Grid-Connected Pv-Fc Hybrid System Power Control Using Mppt And Boost ConverterAbstract: This paper proposes a method for operating a grid connected hybrid system. This system composed of a Photovoltaic (PV) array and a Proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) is considered. As the variations occur in temperature and irradiation during power delivery to load, Photo voltaic (PV) system becomes uncontrollable. In coordination with PEMFC, the hybrid system output power becomes controllable. Two operation modes are the unit-power control (UPC) mode and the feeder-flow control (FFC) mode, can be applied to the hybrid system. All MPPT methods follow the same goal that is maximizing the PV system output power by tracking the maximum power on every operating condition. Maximum power point tracking technique (Incremental conductance) for photovoltaic systems was introduced to maximize the produced energy. The coordination of two control modes, coordination of the PV array and the PEMFC in the hybrid system, and determination of reference parameters are presented. The proposed operating strategy systems with a flexible operation mode change always operate the PV array at maximum output power and the PEMFC in its high efficiency performance band. Also thus improving the performance of system operation, enhancing system stability, and reducing the number of operating mode changes.Index Terms: Distributed generation, fuel cell, hybrid system, micro grid, photovoltaiic.

3. | Wireless Reporting System for Accident Detection at Higher Speeds
Wireless Reporting System for Accident Detection at Higher SpeedsAbstract: Speed is one of the basic reasons for vehicle accident. Many lives could have been saved if emergency service could get accident information and reach in time. Nowadays, GPS has become an integral part of a vehicle system. This paper proposes to utilize the capability of a GPS receiver to monitor speed of a vehicle and detect accident basing on monitored speed and send accident location to an Alert Service Center. The GPS will monitor speed of a vehicle and compare with the previous speed in every second through a Microcontroller Unit. Whenever the speed will be below the specified speed, it will assume that an accident has occurred. The system will then send the accident location acquired from the GPS along with the time and the speed by utilizing the GSM network. This will help to reach the rescue service in time and save the valuable human life.Reference [1] Speed and Accident Risk, Europian Commision Road Safety, [Online] Accessed on 07 October 2011 Avaialble:http://ec. europa.eu/transport/road_safety/specialist/knowledge/speed/speed_is_a_central_issue_in_road_safety/speed_and_accident_risk.htm, Accessed on: 07 October 2011 [2] D.

Image InpaintingAbstract: Inpainting refers to the art of restoring lost parts of image and reconstructing them based on the background information i.e Image inpainting is the process of reconstructing lost or deteriorated parts of images using information from surrounding areas. In fine art museums, inpainting of degraded paintings is traditionally carried out by professional artists and usually very time consuming.The purpose of inpainting is to reconstruct missing regions in a visually plausible manner so that it seems reasonable to the human eye. There have been several approaches proposed for the same. This paper gives an overview of different Techniques of Image Inpainting.The proposed work includes the overview of PDE based inpainting algorithm and Texture synthesis based inpainting algorithm. This paper presents a brief survey on comparative study of these two techniques used for Image Inpainting.Reference [1] A. Criminisi, P. Peres and K.

5. | Effect Of Cuo-Distilled Water Based Nanofluids On Heat Transfer Characteristics And Pressure Drop Characteristics.
Effect Of Cuo-Distilled Water Based Nanofluids On Heat Transfer Characteristics And Pressure Drop CharacteristicsAbstract: In this paper, the heat transfer and pressure drop characteristics of the distilled water and the copper oxide-distilled water based nanofluid flowing in a horizontal circular pipe under constant heat flux condition are studied. Copper oxide nanoparticles of 40nm size are dispersed in distilled water using sodium dodecyl sulphate as surfactant and sonicated the nanofluid for three hour. Both surfactant and sonication increases the stability of the nanofluid. The nanofluids are made in three different concentration i.e. 0.1 Vol. %, 0.25 Vol. % and 0.50 Vol. %. The thermal conductivity is measured by KD2 PRO, density with pycnometer, viscosity with Brookfield LVDV-III rheometer. The results show that the thermal conductivity increases with both temperature and concentration. The viscosity and density increases with concentration but decreases with temperature. The specific heat is calculated by model and it decreases with concentration. The experimental local Nusselt number of distilled water is compared with local Nusselt number obtained by the well known shah equation for laminar flow under constant heat flux condition for validation of the experimental set up. The relative error is 4.48 % for the Reynolds number 750.9. The heat transfer coefficient increases with increase in both flow rate and concentration. It increases from 14.33 % to 46.1 % when the concentration is increased from 0.1 Vol. % to 0.5 Vol. % at 20 LPH flow rate. Friction factor decreases with increase in flow rate. It decreases 66.54 % when the flow rate increases from 10 LPH to 30 LPH for 0.1 Vol. %.Key words: CuO-distilled water nanofluids, heat transfer coefficient, pressure drop, laminar flow, concentration Reference [1] Das K Sarit, Choi U.S Stephen, Wenhua Yu and Pradeep T., Nanofluids: Science and Technology.

6. | Mathematical Modeling of Quasi Static Thermoelastic Transient behavior of thick circular plate with Internal Heat Generation
Mathematical Modeling of Quasi Static Thermoelastic Transient behavior of thick circular plate with Internal Heat GenerationAbstract: The present paper deals with the determination of displacement and thermal transient stresses in a thick circular plate with internal heat generation. External arbitrary heat supply is applied at the upper surface of a thick circular plate, whereas the lower surface of a thick circular plate is insulated and heat is dissipated due to convection in surrounding through lateral surface. Here we compute the effects of internal heat generation of a thick circular plate in terms of stresses along radial direction. The governing heat conduction equation has been solved by using integral transform method. The results are obtained in series form in terms of Bessel's functions and the results for temperature change and stresses have been computed numerically and illustrated graphically.Key words: Thermal stresses, internal heat generation, quasi static.

10. | Voltage Profile Improvement of distribution system Using Particle Swarm Optimization
Voltage Profile Improvement of distribution system Using Particle Swarm OptimizationAbstract: Distributed generations (DGs) play an important role in distribution networks. Distributed generation (DG) exists in distribution systems and is installed by either the utility or the customers. Distributed Generators (DGs) are now commonly used in distribution systems to reduce the power disruption in the power system network. Due to the installation of DGs in the system, the total power loss can be reduced and voltage profile of the buses can be improved due to this power quality of the distribution system is improved. Studies show that non-optimal locations and non-optimal sizes of DG units may lead to losses increase, together with bad effect on voltage profile. So, this paper aims at determining optimal DG allocation and sizing. To do so, the optimization technique named Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) is used .this Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) approach), capable to establish the optimal DG allocation and sizing on a distribution network. This paper presents optimal placement and estimation of distributed generation (DG) capacity using Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) approach in the distribution systems to reduce the real power losses and to gain voltage profile improvement. The proposed (PSO) based approach is tested on an IEEE 30-bus test system.Key words: DG, PSO, Power Loss, Voltage Profile Reference [1] Thomas Ackermann, Goran Andersson, Lenart Soder,"Distributed generation: a definition," Electric Power Systems Research, Volume 57, Issue 3, Pages 195-204,20 April 2001.

1. | Design of Digital Predistortion Technique for RF Power Amplifier using Memory Polynomial
Design of Digital Predistortion Technique for RF Power Amplifier using Memory PolynomialAbstract: Linearization of power amplifier has been an area of intense research from the last many years. The various types of linearization techniques are available for linearising PA but Digital Predistortion technique has been observed as one of the most common and effective method. But due to the issues like memory effects and exact characterization of non-linear behaviour of power amplifier, the implementation of existing predistortion technique suffers. So in this paper, a digital predistorter based on memory polynomial has been proposed that takes care of above mentioned issues. The presented technique is easy to implement and simple.Key words: AM/AM characteristics, Digital Predistortion (DPD), Memory polynomial, Power Amplifier (PA), Power Spectral Density (PSD).

2. | An On-Chip Bus Tracer Analyzer With Amba AHB For Real Time Tracing With Lossless Data Compression For SOC
An On-Chip Bus Tracer Analyzer With Amba AHB For Real Time Tracing With Lossless Data Compression For SOCAbstract: The Advanced Microcontroller Bus Architecture (AMBA) widely used as the on-chip bus in System-on-a-chip (SoC) designs. The important aspect of a SoC is not only which components or blocks it houses, but also how they are interconnected. AMBA is a solution for the blocks to interface with each other. The biggest challenge in SoC design is in validating and testing the system. AHB Bus Tracer is a significant infrastructure that is needed to monitor the on chip-bus signals, which is vital for debugging and performance analysis and also optimizing the SOC. Basically on chip signals are difficult to observe since they are deeply embedded in a SoC and no sufficient I/O pins are required to access those signals. Therefore, we embed a bus tracer in SoC to capture the bus signals and store them. The AMBA AHB should be used to which are high bandwidth and require the high performance of a pipelined bus interface. Performance can be improved at high-frequency operation. Performance is independent of the mark-space ratio of the clock. No special considerations are required for automatic test insertion. Our aim in this project is to Design the AHB- protocol with bus tracer. For real-time tracing, we should reduce the trace size as much as possible without reducing the original data.SYS-HMRBT supports tracing after/before an event triggering, named post-triggering trace/pre-triggering trace, respectively. SYS-HMRBT runs at 500 MHz and costs 42 K gates in TSMC 0.13- m technology, indicating that it is capable of real time tracing and is very small in modern SoCs.The experimental results show that trace compression ratio reduced by 96.32%. Finally this approach was designed successfully along with MODEL SIM and synthesis using Xilinx ISE. The SoC can be verified in field-programmable gate array.Key words: AMBA, AHB Bus Tracer, Real Time Compression, multi-resolution, signal tracing.

6. | Routing Enhancement of MANETs using Hybrid Protocol Combined with PBO
Routing Enhancement of MANETs using Hybrid Protocol Combined with PBOAbstract: Mobile ad hoc Networks (MANETs) show an astonishing qualities in the concept of networks which are used without wires. MANETs experience numerous communication medium restrictions such as constrained storage of memory and development of effectual routing protocols. Furthermore, multihop routing mechanism employed in MANETs gives rise to the contention in the channel and jamming within the network. This limits the effectiveness of the network which reduces the energy efficiency of the network and also lessens the routing performance of MANETs. Hence, the major matter in MANETs is to minimize the congestion and contention in order to enhance the routing mechanism. Hence, in this paper, a novel protocol is put into practice having an enhanced route discovery mechanism which is implemented in order to avoid the congestion during the routing. The proposed protocol chooses the route for the transference of information on the basis of load within the traffic on the node and then resets the route with the change in topology. The protocol is then integrated with the proposed algorithm Pollination Based Optimization (PBO) algorithm. This is an efficient technique for transmission that requires a link for longer period of time. The simulator used for the simulation of the work is Network Simulator-2 (NS-2). Simulation results have been carried out showing that the route optimization and enhancement in the route discovery using Pollination Based Optimization (PBO) algorithm.Key words: Destination-Sequenced Distance Vector (DSDV) Protocol, Dynamic Source Routing (DSR) Protocol, Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (MANETs), Pollination Based Optimization (PBO) Algorithm.

8. | Power Quality Improvement And Mitigation Of Voltage Sag And Current Swell Using Distributed Power Flow Controller
Power Quality Improvement And Mitigation Of Voltage Sag And Current Swell Using Distributed Power Flow ControllerAbstract: Modern power utilities have to respond to a number of challenges such as growth of electricity demand specially in non-linear loads in power grids, consequently, That higher power quality should be considered. In this paper, DPFC which is similar to unified power flow controller (UPFC) in structure, which is used to mitigate the voltage sag and swell as a power quality issue. Unlike UPFC, the common dc-link in DPFC, between the shunt and series converter devices should be eliminated and three-phase series converter is divided to several single-phase series distributed converters through the power transmission line. And also to detect the voltage sags and find out the three single-phase reference voltages of DPFC, the synchronous reference frame method is proposed. Application of DPFC in power quality enhancement is simulated in Mat lab/Simulink environment which show the effectiveness of the proposed structureIndex Terms: FACTS, power quality, sag and swell mitigation, distributed power flow controller.

9. | Impacts of Urban Land use changes on flood events in Warri, Delta State Nigeria
Impacts of Urban Land use changes on flood events in Warri, Delta State NigeriaAbstract: Land cover change for the period 1987, 2002 and 2007 was investigated using satellite remote sensing data. The investigation was necessitated to determine the changes over time and how this changes influence urban flooding in Warri Metropolis Delta State, Nigeria. Landsat images of the study area for the years 1987, 2002, 2007 show that in 1987 total built-up area was 83.15km2 (16.7%) and by 2007 it was 236.76km (43.7%) this reflect an annual frequency of change of 1.09%. Marginal areas and vegetation were converted to residential areas which increased the total impervious cover of the study area and generally increased the peak runoff. The conversion of marginal areas also reduced the channel capacity thus leading to flooding. Questionnaires were also administered to get information on how the respondents perceive the cause of flood in the area, the data generated was subjected to ANOVA statistical tool using SPSS. The correlation matrix between Annual rainfall and frequency of flooding show that at P<0.01, r = 0.460 indicating a very significant relationship. The single Factor ANOVA, F >F crit at P < 0.05 show that uncoordinated or unregulated urbanization activities is similar in all the flood zones (Warri 1- Warr4).Key words: Urban flood, Urban centres, Urbanization, Land use change, Landsat.

11. | Using Data Mining Techniques in Customer Segmentation
Using Data Mining Techniques in Customer SegmentationAbstract: Data mining plays important role in marketing and is quite new. Although this field expands rapidly, data mining is still foreign issue for many marketers who trust only their experiences. Data mining techniques cannot substitute the significant role of domain experts and their business knowledge. In the other words, data mining algorithms are powerful but cannot effectively work without the active support of business experts. We can gain useful results by combining these techniques and business expertise. For instance ability of a data mining technique can be substantially increased by combining person experience in the field or information of business can be integrated into a data mining model to build a more successful result. Moreover, these results should always be evaluated by business experts. Thus, business knowledge can help and enrich the data mining results. On the other hand, data mining techniques can extract patterns that even the most experienced business people may have missed. In conclusion, the combination of business domain expertise with the power of data mining techniques can help organizations gain a competitive advantage in their efforts to optimize customer management. Clustering algorithms, a group of data mining technique, is one of most common used way to segment data set according to their similarities. This paper focuses on the topic of customer segmentation using data mining techniques. In the other words, we theoretically discuss about customer relationship management and then utilize couple of data mining algorithm specially clustering techniques for customer segmentation. We concentrated on behavioral segmentation.Key words: Clustering, Customer Relationship Management, Customer Segmentation, Data Mining. Reference [1] K. Tsiptsis and A.

12. | Test Scheduling of Core Based SOC Using Greedy Algorithm
Test Scheduling of Core Based SOC Using Greedy AlgorithmAbstract: Escalating increase in the level of integration has led the design engineers to embed the pre-design and pre-verified logic blocks on chip to make a complete system on chip (SoC) technology. This advancing technology trend has led to new challenges for the design and test engineers. To ensure the testability of the entire system, the test planning needs to be done during design phase. To save the test cost, the test application time needs to be reduced which requires the test to be done concurrently. However the parallel running of test of multiple cores increases the power dissipation. This thereby leads to make test optimization to take care of time and power. This paper presents an approach for the scheduling the cores with the test time, power, test access mechanism and bandwidth constraint based on greedy algorithm. The TAM allotment to the various cores is done dynamically to save the test time and utilize the full bandwidth. Scheduling is done on ITC'02 benchmark circuits. Experiments on these ITC'02 benchmark circuits show that this algorithm offers lower test application time compared to the multiple constraint driven system-on-chip.Key words: SoC testing, test scheduling, test bandwidth, power constraint Reference [1] G.

Parallel prefix adder is a technique for increasing the speed in DSP processor while performing addition. We simulate and synthesis different types of 16-bit sparse tree RSFQ adders using Xilinx ISE10.1i tool, By using these synthesis results, We noted the performance parameters like number of LUT's and delay.

14. | Comparision of methods for combination of multiple classifiers that predict behavior patterns Comparision of methods for combination of multiple classifiersAbstract: Predictive analysis include techniques fromdata mining that analyze current and historical data and make predictions about the future. Predictive analytics is used in actuarial science, financial services, retail, travel, healthcare, insurance, pharmaceuticals, marketing, telecommunications and other fields.Predicting patterns can be considered as a classification problem and combining the different classifiers gives better results. We will study and compare three methods used to combine multiple classifiers. Bayesian networks perform classification based on conditional probability. It is ineffective and easy to interpret as it assumes that the predictors are independent. Tree augmented naïve Bayes (TAN) constructs a maximum weighted spanning tree that maximizes the likelihood of the training data, to perform classification.This tree structure eliminates the independent attribute assumption of naïve Bayesian networks. Behavior-knowledge space method works in two phases and can provide very good performances if large and representative data sets are available.Key words: Bayesian networks, Behavior-knowledge space, TAN.

15. | Data Security With Colors Using Rsa
Data Security With Colors Using RsaAbstract: Data Security with Colors using RSA technique that integrates the RGB Color model with the well-known public key cryptographic algorithm RSA (Rivest, Shamir and Adleman). This model provides both confidentiality and authentication to the data sent across the network. RSA algorithm uses public key and private key to encrypt and decrypt the data and thus provides confidentiality. But the public key is known to everyone and so anyone can encrypt the data and send the message. Hence authentication of users is needed. In this technique we use RGB color model to provide authentication. Every user will have a unique color assigned to him. A sender must know the receiver's color to send a message. The color value is encrypted using a key which is used as a password while decrypting the message. To decrypt the message, the receiver must provide his color values. If the decrypted color values and his color values are equal then the sender and receiver are send to be authentic. The data encryption and decryption follows RSA procedure. Thus both authentication and confidentiality are provided for the data.Key words: DSCR, RSA, encryption, decryption, confidentiality, authentication, private key, public key.

17. | Enhancing Data Integrity in Multi Cloud Storage
Enhancing Data Integrity in Multi Cloud StorageAbstract: Cloud computing is a way to increase the capacity or add capabilities dynamically without investing in new infrastructure, training new personnel, or licensing new software. Cloud is surrounded by many security issues like securing data and examining the utilization of cloud by the cloud computing vendors. Security is one of the major issues which reduce the growth of cloud computing. A large number of clients or data owners store their data on servers in the cloud and it is provided back to them whenever needed. The data provided should not be jeopardized. Data integrity should be taken into account so that the data is correct, consistent and accessible. For ensuring the integrity in cloud computing environment, cloud storage providers should be trusted. Dealing with single cloud providers is predicted to become less secure with customers due to risks of service availability, failure and the possibility of malicious insiders in the single cloud. This paper deals with multi cloud environments to resolve these issues. The integrity of the data in multi cloud storage has been provided with the help of trusted third party using cryptographic algorithm.Key words: Cloud Computing, Data Integrity, Multi cloud, ECC algorithm Reference [1] R.

19. | Overview on Symmetric Key Encryption Algorithms
Overview on Symmetric Key Encryption AlgorithmsAbstract: In today's digital communication era sharing of information is increasing significantly. The information being transmitted is vulnerable to various passive and active attacks. Therefore, the information security is one of the most challenging aspects of communication. Cryptography is the one of the main categories of computer security that converts information from its normal form into an unreadable form by using Encryption and Decryption Techniques. The two main characteristics that identify and differentiate one encryption algorithm from another are its ability to secure the protected data against attacks and its speed and efficiency in doing so. There are basically two techniques of cryptography Symmetric and Asymmetric. This paper presents a detailed study of the symmetric encryption techniques.Key words: Cryptography, Encryption, Decryption, AES, DES, TRIPLEDES, Blowfish.

21. | Improving Data Storage Security in Cloud using Hadoop
Improving Data Storage Security in Cloud using HadoopAbstract: The rising abuse of information stored on large data centres in cloud emphasizes the need to safe guard the data. Despite adopting strict authentication policies for cloud users data while transferred over to secure channel when reaches data centres is vulnerable to numerous attacks .The most widely adoptable methodology is safeguarding the cloud data is through encryption algorithm. Encryption of large data deployed in cloud is actually a time consuming process. For the secure transmission of information AES encryption has been used which provides most secure way to transfer the sensitive information from sender to the intended receiver. The main purpose of using this technique is to make sensitive information unreadable to all other except the receiver. The data thus compressed enables utilization of storage space in cloud environment. It has been augmented with Hadoop‟s map-reduce paradigm which works in a parallel mode. The experimental results clearly reflect the effectiveness of the methodology to improve the security of data in cloud environment.Key words: Cloud, AES, Hadoop, Mapreduce, Data Compression Reference [1] Anitha, P. and Palanisamy, Data protection Algorithm Using AES, International Journal of Current Research, 2011 vol.3, issue 6, pp.291-294.

4. | Review of theModern developments in Suction processes of IC Engines
Review of theModern developments in Suction processes of IC EnginesAbstract: This review paper deals with the evolution of the general processes employed in the suction process of IC Engines. The suction process has evolved from the traditional use of carburettors to much more sophisticated systems like CRDi, MPFi, etc. used in modern days. In doing so, various parameters such as the volumetric efficiency and the turbulence, etc. inside the engine have to be considered. Additional processes such as supercharging and turbocharging are employed to improve these parameters. It is also highly desirable to vary the Air-Fuel ratio effectively according to the speed of the engine for better power output and mileage. Thus researchers have developed several ways over the years to achieve it. Recent research work being carried out in this field is in the areas of Pressure Wave Superchargers, Variable Geometry Turbochargers, Multiple Intake valves, Shrouded Intake Valves, Camless Engines etc. Many of these technologies have been employed in the industry such as the DTS-Si, TDi&i-vtec Engines. Thus, the Automobile Industry has come a long way in evolving the intake processes and further developments will always be on the way.Key words: Volumetric efficiency, Turbulence, Swirl, Carburettor, Fuel Injector, Supercharger, Turbocharger.

Finite Element Analysis Of Epoxy-Graphite Powder, Epoxy-Ms Powder, Epoxy- Ms Lathe Scrap(Ms Flakes) Filled In A Circular Hollow Aluminium ColumnAbstract: Main objective of this paper is to prepare composite material filled hollow Al columns and test them for their compressive strengths and compare the results with Rankine's columnar theory and Finite Element Analysis using Ansys 2014. The idea of filling the particulate polymer composite material in an aluminium tube is taken from a research paper presented at 14th international conference on computing in civil and building engineering in Moscow, Russia (27-29 June 2012) by Feng Zhou and Ben Young, in which they filled the Al tube with concrete and conducted Finite Elemental Analysis. The composites used in the project are Epoxy-graphite, Epoxy-MS powder, Epoxy-MS flakes, all these three samples are taken in a hollow Al CHS tube. Another two specimens were prepared by using epoxy-graphite powder and epoxy-MS powder without using Al tube. These specimens were subjected to crushing force and the readings obtained were compared with the results obtained by conducting Finite elemental analysis in ANSYS. The applications include columns in buildings, columns of bridges, and as columns in earthquake zones as the outer hollow metal has the capability to withstand heavy loads and dampens the vibrations.Reference [1.] ISCCBE 14th international conference on computing in civil and building engineering Moscow, Russia, 27-29 June 2012, by Feng Zhou and Ben Young.

6. | Evaluation of sub-soil geo-electric properties in a proposed power sub-station site at Ebubu, Rivers State, Nigeria
Evaluation of sub-soil geo-electric properties in a proposed power sub-station site at Ebubu, Rivers State, NigeriaAbstract: Electrical resistivity survey was carried out in a site proposed for the construction and installation of a Power sub-station. The project will involve subsurface installation of cables and other objects that easily conduct electricity. Extant laws including EIA also require knowledge of subsurface distribution of resistivity in construction projects that would involve burial of steel pipes and cables. The imperative of this is emphasized by the location of the project in an area of shallow groundwater conditions. Field resistivity measurements were undertaken using ABEM Terrameter SAS 1000, adopting Schlumberger configuration in vertical electric sounding at 12 locations within the study site. The results were used to generate geo-electric log models. Three geo-electric profile models (pseudo- profiles) were also taken NE-SW of the site. Interpretation of the models shows that the area is characterized by two geo-electric layers to the depth of 30m. The upper layer of lower resistivity occurs to a depth of 2-3m. This layer consists of lateritic to silty sands. The lower layer has a resistivity of between 900 - >2000 Ωm and represents fine to coarse sands and gravels. On the Soil Electrical Resistivity Classification (BS 1377), the subsoil falls within non-corrosive class. Objects installed in the soil are not likely to suffer corrosion soon. Similarly, subsurface electrical installations will pose minimal hazards and would require basic precautions to avoid electrical accidents.Key words: Resitivity, subsurface installation, power substation, Rivers State, Nigeria Reference [1.] Abam, T.

7. | Current Compensation with Reduced Rating VSC and A ZIG –ZAG Transformer an A Three Phase Four-Wire Distribution System
Current Compensation with Reduced Rating VSC and A ZIG –ZAG Transformer an A Three Phase Four-Wire Distribution SystemAbstract: A reduced rating voltage-source converter with a zig-zag transformer as a distribution static compensator is proposed for power-quality improvement in the three-phase four-wire distribution system. The source voltages in the distribution systems are also experiencing power quality problems, such as harmonics, unbalance, flicker, sag, swell, etc. The distribution static compensator (DSTATCOM) is proposed for compensating power quality problems in the current, and the dynamic voltage restorer (DVR) is used for mitigating the power quality problems in the voltage. The zig-zag transformer is used for the neutral current compensation. Distribution systems are facing severe power-quality (PQ) problems, such as poor voltage regulation, high reactive power and harmonics current burden, load unbalancing, excessive neutral current, etc. The zig-zag transformer is used for providing a path to the zero-sequence current. The DSTATCOM is used to improve the quality of power to the non linear loads. By using both zig-zag transformer and DSTATCOM in the distribution system the rating of the voltage source converter can be reduced. Hence it can be also called reduced rating device. The performance of the DSTATCOM is validated through extensive simulations using MATLAB software with its Simulink and power system block set toolboxes..Index Terms: Distribution static compensator (DSTATCOM), neutral current compensation, power quality (PQ), zig-zag transformer Reference [1] G.

Efficient video compression using EZWTAbstract: In this article, wavelet based lossy video compression algorithm is presented. The motion estimation and compensation, being an important part in the compression, is based on segment movements. The proposed work is based on wavelet transform algorithm Embedded Zeroed WaveletTransform (EZWT). Based on the results of peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR), mean squared error (MSE), different videos are analyzed. Maintaining the PSNR to acceptable limits the proposed EZWT algorithm achieves very good compression ratios making the technique more efficient than the 2-Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) in the H.264/AVC codec. The method is being suitable for low bit rate video showing highest compression ratio and very good PSNR of more than 30dB..Reference [1] Iain E. G.

10. | Microcontroller Based Solar tracking System for enhancing efficiency of a Photovoltaic system
Microcontroller Based Solar tracking System for enhancing efficiency of a Photovoltaic systemAbstract: In today‟s scenario of increasing energy needs, there is a huge dependence on renewable energy sources along with the conventional sources. One of the most important renewable energy resources is the sun. However, the problem with solar power is that it is directly dependent on light intensity. To produce the maximum amount of energy, a solar panel must be perpendicular to the light source. Because the sun moves both throughout the day as well as throughout a year, a solar panel must be able to follow the sun‟s movement to produce the maximum possible power. There are a large number of methods available for solar tracking and hence maximizing the output .This paper proposes an Arduino Uno microcontroller board based solar tracking system. As compared to the conventional solar panels, the one mounted with microcontroller based tracking system will give enhanced output.Key words: Microcontroller, Tracking, Light Dependent Resistors.

Parallel Processing Technique for Time Efficient Matrix MultiplicationAbstract: In this paper, we have proposed one designs for parallel-parallel input and single output (PPI-SO) matrix-matrix multiplication. In this design differs by high speed area efficient, throughput rate and user defined input format to match application needs. We have compared the proposed designs with the existing similar design and found that, the proposed designs offer higher throughput rate, reduce area at relatively lower hardware cost. We have synthesized the proposed design and the existing design using Xilinx software. Synthesis results shows that proposed design on average consumes nearly 30% less energy than the existing design and involves nearly 70% less area-delay-product than other. Interestingly, the proposed parallel-parallel input and single output (PPI-SO) structure consumes 40% less energy than the existing structure.Key words: Parallel-Parallel Input and Single Output (PPI-SO), Synopsis Simulation.

13. | Nonlinear Static Analysis Of 3-D RC Framed Asymmetric Building With Lead Rubber Isolator Using Sap2000v15
Nonlinear Static Analysis Of 3-D RC Framed Asymmetric Building With Lead Rubber Isolator Using Sap2000v15Abstract: Many buildings in the present scenario have irregular configurations both in plan and elevation. This in future may be subjected to devastating earthquakes. So it is also necessary to enhance the seismic performance of asymmetric buildings by using seismic control techniques. In the present study a total of 9 models, asymmetrical in plan (L-shape) are taken for analysis to cover the broader spectrum of low, medium & high rise buildings for the seismic control of the structures using pushover analysis, two different techniques were considered such as lead rubber bearing isolator and masonry infill walls, the analysis has been carried out using SAP2000V15. The results of bare frame and other building models have been compared, the presence of lead rubber base isolator, top story drift get reduced as compared with masonry infill wall. The trend was found to be reversed for high rise buildings especially with the application of isolation systems due to the massive increase in the story displacements suggesting the ineffectiveness of the base isolators for high rise buildings successively the plastic hinge pattern formed after carrying out the pushover analysis was also studied which indicated that structural performance was considerably improved.Key words: bare frame, lead rubber bearing isolator, masonry infill Reference [1] Helmut Krawinkler and G.D.P.K.

15. | A Survey Analysis on CMOS Integrated Circuits with Clock-Gated Logic Structure
A Survey Analysis on CMOS Integrated Circuits with Clock-Gated Logic StructureAbstract: Various circuit design techniques has been presented to improve noise tolerance of the proposed CGS logic families. Noise in deep submicron technology limits the reliability and performance of ICs. The ANTE (Average Noise Threshold Energy) metric is used for the analysis of noise tolerance of proposed CGS. A 2-input NAND and NOR gate is designed by the proposed technique. Simulation results for a 2-input NAND gate at clock gated logic show that the proposed noise tolerant circuit achieves 1.79X ANTE improvement along with the reduction in leakage power. Continuous scaling of technology towards the manometer range significantly increases leakage current level and the effect of noise. This research can be further extended for performance optimization in terms of power, speed, area and noise immunity.Key words: Static CMOS Logic, Domino Logic, Feed through Logic (CGS), Low Power.

16. | Hack Recognition In Wireless Sensor Network
Hack Recognition In Wireless Sensor NetworkAbstract: A wireless sensor network can get separated into multiple connected components due to the failure of some of its nodes, which is called a ―cut‖. In this article we consider the problem of detecting cuts by the remaining nodes of a wireless sensor network. We propose an algorithm that allows like every node to detect when the connectivity to a specially designated node has been lost, and one or more nodes (that are connected to the special node after the cut) to detect the occurrence of the cut. The algorithm is distributed and asynchronous: every node needs to communicate with only those nodes that are within its communication range. The algorithm is based on the iterative computation of a fictitious ―electrical potential‖ of the nodes. The convergence rate of the underlying iterative scheme is independent of the size and structure of the network.Key words: Wireless networks, sensor networks, network separation, detection and estimation, iterative computation.

17. | LOAD MANAGEMENT IN CLOUD ENVIRONMENT
LOAD MANAGEMENT IN CLOUD ENVIRONMENTAbstract: Cloud computing is an on demand service in which shared resources, information, software and other devices are provided to the end user as per their requirement at a specific time. A cloud consists of several elements such as clients, datacenters and distributed servers. There are n number of clients and end users involved in cloud environment. These clients may make requests to the cloud system simultaneously, making it difficult for the cloud to manage the entire load at a time. The load can be CPU load, memory load, delay or network load. This might cause inconvenience to the clients as there may be delay in the response time or it might affect the performance and efficiency of the cloud environment. So, the concept of load balancing is very important in cloud computing to improve the efficiency of the cloud. Good load balancing makes cloud computing more efficient and improves user satisfaction. This paper gives an approach to balance the incoming load in cloud environment by making partitions of the public cloud.Key words: Load Balancing, Cloud Partition, Main Controller, Load Balancers Reference [1.] Ruxandra Stefania PETRE, "Data Mining in Cloud Computing" published in "Database Systems Journal vol.III, no.3/2012" [2.] kashish Ara Shakil, Mansaf Aslam,"Data Management in cloud based environment using k-median clustering technique" published in "IJCA" [3.] Mohammad Manzoor Hussain, Anandkumar Biyani, Bhavana Bidarkar, "Cloud Partitioning for Public Clouds using Load Balancing Model", published in "International Journal of Engineering Development and Research" [4.] Mangal Nath Tiwari, Kamalendra Kumar Gautam, Dr Rakesh Kumar Katare, "Analysis of public cloud Load Balancing using Partitioning Method and Game Theory", published in "International journal of Advanced Research in Computer Science and Software Engineering" [5.] Mayanka Katyal, Atul Mishra, "A Comparative Study of Load Balancing Algorithms in Cloud Computing Environment", published in," International Journal of Distributed and Cloud Computing".

20. | Design, Analysis and Optimization of Anti-Roll Bar
Design, Analysis and Optimization of Anti-Roll BarAbstract: Vehicle anti-roll bar is part of an automobile suspension system which limits body roll angle. This U-shaped metal bar connects opposite wheels together through short lever arms and is clamped to the vehicle chassis with rubber bushes. Its function is to reduce body roll while cornering, also while travelling on uneven road which enhances safety and comfort during driving. Design changes of anti-roll bars are quite common at various steps of vehicle production and a design analysis must be performed for each change. So Finite Element Analysis (FEA) can be effectively used in design analysis of anti-roll bars. The finite element analysis is performed by ANSYS. This paper includes pre-processing, analysis, post processing, and analyzing the FEA results by using APDL (Ansys Parametric Design Language). The effects of anti-roll bar design parameters on final anti-roll bar properties are also evaluated by performing sample analyses with the FEA program developed in this project.Key words: FEA, Anti Roll Bar, APDL, Design Parameters.

Extensive Reviews of OSPF and EIGRP Routing Protocols based on Route Summarization and Route Redistribution.Abstract: The increasing demand of computer networks is growing rapidly day by day. The growing need to distribute applications across multiple networks with high capacity and high-performance intermediate switching nodes and networks. This research primarily focuses on route redistribution and route summarization of different intra-domain routing protocols such as EIGRP and OSPF. Routing Protocols that use facilitate to exchange routing information between routers. Reasons such as multiple departments managed by multiple network Administrators, company mergers. In any case, having a multiple routing protocol and different autonomous system in networks then without route redistribution we cannot advertise route from source to destination. Of course Network complexity will increase with the size of routing table of routers then route summarization is necessity, to reduce traffic and complexity of network.Key words: EIGRP, OSPF, Route summarization, Route redistribution.

Establishing Optimal Dehydration Process Parameters for Papaya By EmployingA Firefly Algorithm, Goal Programming ApproachAbstract: This study employs a Firefly Algorithm (FA) to determine the optimal osmotic dehydration parameters for papaya. The functional form of the osmotic dehydration model is established via a standard response surface technique. The format of the resulting optimization model to be solved is a non-linear goal programming problem. While various alternate solution approaches are possible, an FA-driven procedure is employed. For optimization purposes, it has been demonstrated that the FA is more computationally efficient than other such commonly-used metaheuristics as genetic algorithms, simulated annealing, and enhanced particle swarm optimization. Hence, the FA approach is a very computationally efficient procedure. It can be shown that the resulting solution determined for the osmotic process parameters is superior to those from all previous approaches.Key words: Firefly Algorithm, Non-linear Goal Programming, Process Parameter Optimization, Food Dehydration Reference [1] Geohive World Crop Production,www.geohive.com/charts/ag_crops.aspx, 2014.

23. | To Minimize the Waiting Time and Waiting Time Cost of Dumpers, Waiting in a Queue for Loader at Stone Crusher Plant Mine by Using the Single and Multi-Channel Queuing Theory
To Minimize the Waiting Time and Waiting Time Cost of Dumpers, Waiting in a Queue for Loader at Stone Crusher Plant Mine by Using the Single and Multi-Channel Queuing TheoryAbstract: Waiting line problems arise because there is too much demand on the facilities so that we can say that there is an excess of waiting time or inadequate number of service facilities. At the stone crusher plant mine the dumpers come to load from the loader. The crusher plant has 11 dumpers and these 11 dumpers make 88 trips during 8-hour day. The company has one loader to load all the dumpers, which results in a formation of long waiting line or queue. Due to this queue there is a long waiting time in queue of dumpers and cost associated with waiting time of dumpers. Queuing theory can quite effectively analyze such queuing phenomenon. In this research paper I have applied the queuing theory to the stone crusher plant mine, where the queue of dumpers formed at the loading station. By applying the single channel queuing theory I analyzed the current situation of the stone crusher plant mine and find the problems of the current system. To overcome the above problems I have applied the multi-channel queuing theory to minimize the waiting time in queue of dumpers and very high cost associated with waiting time of dumpers. In the new system not only waiting time in queue of dumpers and very high cost associated with waiting time of dumpers is reduced but also there is an efficient utilization of dumpers and loaders along with provide the profitable situation to the crusher plant.Key words: Waiting lines, stone crusher plant mines, single& multi-channel queuing theory, waiting time and waiting time cost.

The transport equations of liner momentum, angular momentum and energy are solved by employing Galerkine finite element analysis with linear triangular elements. The computation is carried out for different values of Rayleigh number – Ra micropolar parameter – R, spin gradient parameter, Eckert number Ec and heat source parameter. The rate of heat transfer and couple stress on the side wall is evaluated for different variation of the governing parameters.Key words: Heat and Mass Transfer, Micropolar Fluid, Soret and Dufour Effect, Rectangular Duct Reference [1] BORN, P.J, CHOW, L.C and TIEN, C.L:Int.

1. | Rotation Invariant Matching of Partial Shoeprints
Rotation Invariant Matching of Partial ShoeprintsAbstract: In this paper, we propose a solution for the problem of rotated partial shoeprints retrieval based on the combined use of local points of interest and SIFT descriptor. Once the generated features are encoded using SIFT descriptor, matching is carried out using RANSAC to estimate a transformation model and establish the number of its inliers which is then multiplied by the sum of point-to-point Euclidean distances below a hard threshold. We demonstrate that such combination can overcome the issue of retrieval of partial prints in the presence of rotation and noise distortions. Conducted experiments have shown that the proposed solution achieves very good matching results and outperforms similar work in the literature both in terms of performances and complexity.Reference [1] W.J.

2. | Reduction of Outage Probability in Fast Rayleigh Fading MIMO Channels Using OFDM
Reduction of Outage Probability in Fast Rayleigh Fading MIMO Channels Using OFDMAbstract: Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) techniques are used in wireless communications for achieving high spectral efficiency; however, a fast fading spatial channel can increase the outage probability of a MIMO system if not taken care of. This paper investigates the use of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) modulation technique for a MIMO system operating in fast Rayleigh fading channels with the aim of eliminating outage probabilities in the MIMO systems.

5. | Energy Efficiency of MIMO-OFDM Communication System
Energy Efficiency of MIMO-OFDM Communication SystemAbstract: With the ever increasing number of subscribers and their seemingly "greedy" demands for high-data-rate services, the next generation networks will have to provide global connectivity to ensure success. So the combination of multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) signal processing with orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is regarded as a promising solution for enhancing the data rates of next-generation wireless communication systems operating in frequency-selective fading environments. Therefore hybrid architecture between terrestrial and satellite networks based on MIMO-OFDM with frequency reuse is employed here. However, this frequency reuse introduces severe co-channel interference (CCI) at the satellite end. To mitigate CCI, we propose an OFDM based adaptive beamformer implemented on-board the satellite with pilot reallocation at the transmitter side. The system performance is simulated by using the software MATLAB, the experimental result shows that the MIMO-OFDM communication system has better performance when compared.Key words: Adaptive beamforming, Co-channel interference (CCI) Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO), Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM).

6. | Towards Improving Crash Data Management System in Gulf Countries
Towards Improving Crash Data Management System in Gulf CountriesAbstract: Scientific and analytical approaches to accident data collection, storage and analysis are essential in dealing with road safety problems. Police accident records in the majority of countries form the main (and sometimes the only) source of accident data. Access to the accident database is also important to identifying specific safety problems and evaluating the effectiveness of the countermeasure introduced. Accident data collection and analysis offered by technological innovation such as Electronic Data Entry (EDE), Electronic Data transfer (EDT), and Geographic Information system (GIS) are implemented in developed countries. Developing countries, including the Gulf countries, should take advantage of the experience of developed countries on how the advance accident data management system works to identifying, more accurately, the main factors contributing to traffic accident. The main purpose of this research is to provide information on accident statistics process in Virginia state, starting from the time of accident occurring until it is stored in the database, with the aim of using it towards improving the process of collecting and maintaining accident data system in Gulf countries. The task is performed by reviewing the relevant international literature and interviewing police officers in charge and academic researchers in order to compare the accident data management system and also the quality of the data. Recommendations towards developing the crash data management system will be obtained based on the research results and international experience.Key words: Accident database, Gulf countries, Accident Record System Reference [1.] H.M.N.

7. | Power Quality Improvement at Distribution Level for Grid Connected Renewable Energy Sources
Power Quality Improvement at Distribution Level for Grid Connected Renewable Energy SourcesAbstract: The non-linear load current harmonics may result in voltage harmonics and can create a serious PQ problem in the power system network. Active power filters (APF) are extensively used to compensate the load current harmonics and load unbalance at distribution level. This results in an additional hardware cost. However, in this project it has incorporated the features of APF in the conventional inverter interfacing renewable with the grid, without any additional hardware cost. Here, the main idea is the maximum utilization of inverter rating which is most of the time underutilized due to intermittent nature of RES. The grid-interfacing inverter can effectively be utilized to perform the four important functions they are to transfer active power harvested from the renewable resources (wind, solar, etc.), load reactive power demand support, current harmonics compensation at PCC and current unbalance and neutral current compensation in case of 3-phase 4-wire system. Moreover, with adequate control of grid-interfacing inverter, all the four objectives can be accomplished either individually or simultaneously. The PQ constraints at the PCC can therefore be strictly maintained within the utility standards without additional hardware cost. With such a control, the combination of grid-interfacing inverter and the 3-phase 4-wire linear/non-linear unbalanced load at point of common coupling appears as balanced linear load to the grid. This new control concept is demonstrated with extensive MATLAB/Simulink simulation studiesIndex Terms: Active power filter (APF), distributed generation (DG), distribution system, grid interconnection, power quality (PQ), renewable energy.

8. | Design and Simulation of a Three Phase Power Converter Connected To a Distribution System
Design and Simulation of a Three Phase Power Converter Connected To a Distribution SystemAbstract: The distributed generation systems based on renewable energy sources (photovoltaic, fuel cells, and storage systems such as ultra capacitors and batteries) are of great interest due to their low environmental impact and technical advantages such as improvements in voltage levels and reduced power losses when a distributed generation system is installed in radial lines. Two control algorithms were proposed to improve the grid-connected and intentional-islanding operations methods, in which the distributed generation system must detect the situation and switch from power or current to voltage as a control variable to provide constant rms voltage to the local loads. The power flow between the grid and the distributed generation is controlled by applying a power/voltage method that regulates the amplitude and the displacement of the grid voltage synthesized by the distributed generation, while a phase-locked loop algorithm is used to synchronize the grid and distributed generation.Index Terms: Distributed generation (DG), islanding modes, power converters.

9. | Non-Linear Static Analysis of G+6 Storeyed RC Buildings with Openings in Infill Walls
Non-Linear Static Analysis of G+6 Storeyed RC Buildings with Openings in Infill WallsAbstract: Masonry infill walls are commonly used in the RC frame structure buildings. Openings are inevitable part of the infill walls. Openings in infill walls significantly decrease the lateral strength and stiffness of RC frames. In the present study two-dimensional seven storeyed reinforced concrete (RC) building models are considered with of (5%, 25%, and 35% openings Bare frame and soft storey buildings are modeled considering special moment resisting frame (SMRF) for medium soil profile and zone III. Concrete block infill walls are modeled as pin-jointed single equivalent diagonal strut. Pushover analysis is carried out for both default and user defined hinge properties as per FEMA 440 guidelines using SAP2000 software. Results of default and user defined hinge properties are studied by pushover analysis. The results of ductility ratio, safety ratio, global stiffness, and hinge status at performance point are compared with the models. Authors conclude that as the percentage of openings increases, vulnerability increases in the infill walls. The user-defined hinge model is better than the default-hinge model in reflecting nonlinear behavior. The misuse of default-hinge properties may lead to unreasonable displacement capacities for existing structures. However, if the default-hinge model is preferred due to simplicity, the user should be aware of what is provided in the program and should avoid the misuse of default-hinge properties.Key words: Openings, Default and User defined hinges, Pushover analysis, Performance levels, Ductility ratio, Safety ratio, Global stiffness Reference [1] C.V.R.

Thermo catalytic decomposition of methane over Pd/AC and Pd/CB catalysts for hydrogen production and carbon nanofibers formationAbstract: Hydrogen production studies have been carried using Thermo Catalytic Decomposition (TCD) Unit. Thermo catalytic decomposition of methane is an attractive route for COx free production of hydrogen required in fuel cells. Although metal based catalysts produce hydrogen at low temperatures, carbon formed during methane decomposition reaction rapidly deactivates the catalyst. The present work compares the results of 10 wt% Pd supported on commercially available activated carbon and carbon black catalysts (samples coded as Pd10/AC and Pd10/CB respectively) for methane decomposition reaction. Hydrogen has been produced by thermo catalytic decomposition of methane at 1123K and Volume Hourly Space Velocity (VHSV) of 1.62 L/h g on the activity of both the catalysts has been studied. XRD of the above catalysts revealed, moderately crystalline peaks of Pd which may be responsible for the increase in catalytic life and formation of carbon fibers. Also during life studies (850°C and 54 sccm of methane) it has been observed that the activity of carbon black is sustainable for a longer time compared to that of activated carbon.Key words: Hydrogen, palladium chloride, activated carbon (AC), carbon black (CB), thermo catalytic decomposition.

Technologies, Strategies And Algorithm In Green Computing – Solution To Energy CrisisAbstract: A safe and non-polluted environment is the basic need of a living being. But today the situation is getting changed. Our environment is getting polluted day by day at a very high rate. The use of computing devices plays a vital role in harmfulness of environment. To reduce these harmful impacts the concept of Green Computing must be implemented. In this research paper, we includes some technologies, strategies and algorithm which are used for the implementation of green computing. The main reason is the awareness of a common user. If a common user is getting aware about the harmful impacts of use of computing devices over environment and takes some steps at own level to reduce electricity, the concept of green computing will be implemented.Key words: Green computing, environment, computers, hazardous, carbon dioxide (CO2) Reference [1] Jacob John,‖Green -717 Computing Strategies for Improving Energy Efficienty in IT Systems‖, Volume No.3 Issue No.6, pp : 715.

20. | Implementation Of Thyristor Controlled Series Capacitor
(TCSC) In Transmission Line Model Using Arduino
Implementation Of Thyristor Controlled Series Capacitor (TCSC) In Transmission Line Model Using ArduinoAbstract: A grid of transmission lines operating at high or extra high voltages is required to transmit power from generating stations to load. In addition to transmission lines that carry power from source to load, modern power systems are highly interconnected for economic reasons. The large interconnected transmission networks are prone to faults due to the lightning discharges and reduce insulation strength. Changing of loads and atmosphere conditions are unpredictable factors. This may cause overloading of lines due to which voltage collapse takes place. These problems can be eased by providing sufficient margin of working parameters and power transfer, but it is not possible due to expansion of transmission network. Still the required margin is reduced by introduction of fast dynamic control over reactive and active power by high power electronic controllers. This paper describes about implementation of Thyristor Controlled Series Capacitor (TCSC) in transmission line model in order to enhance power flow at the receiving end. The triggering pulses to the thyristor are given using Arduino.Key words: Thyristor Controlled Series Capacitor, Arduino, Compensation Reference [1] IEEE. FACTS overview. Power Engr. Soc.

21. | A Comparative Study on Compressive and Flexural Strength of Concrete Containing Different Admixtures as Partial Replacement of Cement
A Comparative Study on Compressive and Flexural Strength of Concrete Containing Different Admixtures as Partial Replacement of CementAbstract: Concrete is the most widely used material in the world today. This paper is about the comparative study of the flexural strength and compressive strength of concrete when different admixtures are used as partial replacement of cement in the concrete mix. The mineral admixtures that are used here are Silica Fume, Rice Husk Ash and Iron slag as partial replacement of cement. All these materials are industrial waste products and are abundantly available nowadays. These materials have high silica content and pozzolanic properties and can be effectively used as a replacement of cement during the formation of High Performance Concrete. Compressive and Flexural strength are the two most important characteristic of concrete and are calculated for the hardened concrete to analyze the load bearing capacity for design purposes. Thus for the effective judgment of type of mineral admixtures to be used a comparative study is very useful.Key words: Compressive strength, flexural strength, High Performance Concrete, Iron slag, Rice Husk Ash (RHA), Silica fume Reference [1] IS :456-2000 [2] IS:516-1959 [3] IS:10262-2009 [4] G.A Rama Rao,R.K Sastry and P.K Rohatgi Bull ,"Nature and reactivity of silica available in rice husk and its ashes" Mater.

22. | Geochronos File Sharing Application Using Cloud
Geochronos File Sharing Application Using CloudAbstract: Accessing, running and sharing applications and data at present face many challenges. Cloud Computing and Social Networking technologies have the potential to simplify or eliminate many of these challenges. Social Networking technologies provide a means for easily sharing applications and data. Now a day's people want to be connected 24x7 to the world around them. Networking and Communication have come together to make the world a small place to live in. People want to be in constant touch with their subordinates where ever they are and avail emergency services whenever needed. In this paper we present an on-line/on-demand interactive application service (Software as a Service). The service is built on a cloud computing basement that provisions virtualized application servers based on user demand. An open source social networking platform is leveraged to establish a portal front-end that enables applications and results to be easily shared between users. In the proposed system users can access the documents uploaded into the cloud by others and provide any data they have in hand to other users through the same cloud. This also allows the users to have an interactive session through the chat screens present in the cloud. The paper also highlights some major security issues existing in current cloud computing environment.Key words: Cloud Computing, Social Networking, Virtualized application, Interactive session.

Real-Time System of Hand Detection And Gesture Recognition In Cyber Presence Interactive System For E-LearningAbstract: The development of technologies of multimedia, linked to that of Internet and democratization of high outflow, has made henceforth E-learning possible for learners being in virtual classes and geographically distributed. The quality and quantity of asynchronous and synchronous communications are the key elements for E-learning success. It is important to have a propitious supervision to reduce the feeling of isolation in E-learning. This feeling of isolation is among the main causes of loss and high rates of stalling in E-learning. The researches to be conducted in this domain aim to bring solutions of convergence coming from real time image for the capture and recognition of hand gestures. These gestures will be analyzed by the system and transformed as indicator of participation. This latter is displayed in the table of performance of the tutor as a curve according to the time. In case of isolation of learner, the indicator of participation will become red and the tutor will be informed of learners with difficulties to participate during learning session.Key words: hand detection, hand recognition, segmentation, skin color Reference [1] Kim K, Chalidabhongse T, David H, Davis L.

24. | Study of Strength of RC Shear Wall at Different Location on Multi-Storied Residential Building
Study of Strength of RC Shear Wall at Different Location on Multi-Storied Residential BuildingAbstract: Shear wall systems are one of the most commonly used lateral load resisting systems in high-rise buildings. Shear walls have very high in plane stiffness and strength, which can be used to simultaneously resist large horizontal loads and support gravity loads, making them quite advantageous in many structural engineering applications. There are lots of literatures available to design and analyze the shear wall. However, the decision about the location of shear wall in multi-storey building is not much discussed in any literatures. In this paper, therefore, main focus is to determine the solution for shear wall location in multi-storey building. A RCC building of six storey placed in HYDERABAD subjected to earthquake loading in zone-II is considered. An earthquake load is calculated by seismic coefficient method using IS 1893 (PART–I):2002. These analyses were performed using ETABS.Key words: Multi-storey, RC structure, seismic analysis, RC shear wall, ETABS.

25. | A Novel Hybrid Dstatcom Topology for Load Compensation with
Non-Stiff Source
A Novel Hybrid Dstatcom Topology for Load Compensation with Non-Stiff SourceAbstract: The distribution static compensator (DSTATCOM) is a shunt active filter, which injects currents into the point of common coupling (PCC) (the common point where load, source, and DSTATCOM are connected) such that the harmonic filtering, power factor correction, and load balancing can be achieved. The distribution static compensator (DSTATCOM) is used for load compensation in power distribution network. A new topology for DSTATCOM applications with non-stiff source is proposed. The proposed topology enables DSTATCOM to have a reduced dc-link voltage without compromising the compensation capability. It uses a series capacitor along with the interfacing inductor and a shunt filter capacitor. With the reduction in dc-link voltage, the average switching frequency of the insulated gate bipolar transistor switches of the D-STATCOM is also reduced. Consequently, the switching losses in the inverter are reduced. Detailed design aspects of the series and shunt capacitors are discussed in this paper. A simulation study of the proposed topology has been carried out using MATLAB environment and the results analyzed.Key words: Dc link voltage, distribution static compensator (DSTATCOM), hybrid topology, nonstiff source.

Design and Implementation of Submicron Level 10T Full Adder in ALU Using Cell Based and SOC TechnologyAbstract: As technology scales into the nanometer regime leakage current, active power, delay and area are becoming important metric for the analysis and design of complex circuits. The main concern in mobile and battery based systems are leakage current and power dissipation. A transistor resizing approach for 10 transistor single bit full adder cells is used to determine optimal sleep transistor size which reduces power dissipation and leakage current. A submicron level 10-transistor single bit full adder cell is considered to achieve low leakage current, reduced power dissipation and high speed. In this paper initially 10T full adder cell is designed with submicron technique and later this is employed to design an ALU adder unit. The modified ALU is simulated and synthesized successfully on cadence 180nm technology.Key words: Low leakage, cmos, 10T full adder, sleep transistors, carry lookahead adder, SoC(system on chip).

28. | Design and Modeling of Grid Connected Hybrid Renewable Energy Power Generation
Design and Modeling of Grid Connected Hybrid Renewable Energy Power GenerationAbstract: This paper proposes a design and modeling of grid connected hybrid renewable energy power generation. The energy system having a photo voltaic (PV) panel, Srg wind turbine and fuel cell (sofc) for continuous power flow management. Fuel cells (storage & generating) are added to ensure uninterrupted power supply due to the discontinuous nature of solar and wind resources. Renewable energy generated during times of plenty can be stored for use during periods when sufficient electricity is not available. But storing this energy is a difficult task: batteries and similar technologies perform well over short timescales, but over periods of weeks or months a different approach is necessary. Energy storage in the form of hydrogen is one such possibility: excess electricity is fed into an electrolyser to split water into its constituent parts, oxygen and hydrogen. The hydrogen is then used in fuel cells to produce electricity when needed which will overcome the problem of storage. This work is mainly concentrated on the design, analysis and modelling of Fuel cells and Analysis and modelling of Switched Reluctance Generator (SRG) in the application of Wind Energy Generation and pv cell. Also an effective approach is proposed in this thesis to ensure renewable energy diversity and effective utilization. The pv cell, wind and fuel cell renewable energy system is digitally simulated using the MATLAB/SIMULINK software environment and fully validated for efficient energy utilizations and enhanced interface power quality under different operating conditions and load excursionsKey words: Photovoltaic (PV) system, SRG based wind Turbine, Fuel cell, Grid Reference [1] Yann Riffonneau, Seddik bacha, Franck barruel and Stephanie Plane, "optimal power flow management for Grid connected PV system "IEEE Transactions on sustainable energy, vor, no.3, PP.309-320, july 2011.

29. | Medical Image Fusion Using Discrete Wavelet Transform
Medical Image Fusion Using Discrete Wavelet TransformAbstract: Medical image fusion is the process of registering and combining multiple images from single or multiple imaging modalities to improve the imaging quality and reduce randomness and redundancy in order to increase the clinical applicability of medical images for diagnosis and assessment of medical problems. Multimodal medical image fusion algorithms and devices have shown notable achievements in improving clinical accuracy of decisions based on medical images. The domain where image fusion is readily used nowadays is in medical diagnostics to fuse medical images such as CT (Computed Tomography), MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) and MRA. This paper aims to present a new algorithm to improve the quality of multimodality medical image fusion using Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) approach. Discrete Wavelet transform has been implemented using different fusion techniques including pixel averaging, maximum minimum and minimum maximum methods for medical image fusion. Performance of fusion is calculated on the basis of PSNR, MSE and the total processing time and the results demonstrate the effectiveness of fusion scheme based on wavelet transform.Key words: Image Fusion, Multimodal medical image fusion, fusion rules, PSNR, MSE.

31. | Road Traffic Noise Level Assessment at an Institutional Area
Road Traffic Noise Level Assessment at an Institutional AreaAbstract: Unplanned and rapid urbanization, industrialization, increasing number of vehicles, poor traffic management, poor road condition etc. are the major causes of higher noise levels in most of the Indian cities. Prolonged exposure to higher noise levels can lead to irreversible Noise Induced Hearing Loss (NIHL). Noise-induced hearing loss is contributing one-third to the total persons suffering from hearing loss in every country in the world. The present study aims at measuring the noise levels in the university campus to analyze the current situation and suggesting noise control measures to be adopted in University campus and along MMA Jauhar Marg. The numbers of vehicles were counted during November 17-21, 2012 and noise levels were measured at various pre decided locations. The traffic load in horizon years 2013, 2017, 2022, 2027 and 2032 on the MMA Jauhar Marg Road is predicted on the basis of observed traffic data and expected annual growth rate as 8.0% for pre Metro and 3.5% for post Metro. The noise levels were measured using Larson Davis Model 831 Class 1 Sound Level Meter on both sides of road at foot paths along MMA Jauhar Marg and at various receptor locations inside the different buildings in the university campus. Model RLS-90 is used for prediction of noise levels. The prediction of metro noise is carried out using statistical calculations. The combined noise levels were compared with standard criteria for silent zone and found on higher side.

32. | Effect of Bond Layer on Tri-Layered Assembly Subjected To Differential Uniform Temperature Change
Effect of Bond Layer on Tri-Layered Assembly Subjected To Differential Uniform Temperature ChangeAbstract: In the present analytical and numerical study, the thermal mismatching stress induced under differential temperature conditions of tri-layered assembly with bond is investigated. The thermal mismatching stresses are one of the reasons for structural failures between two or more connected devices. Therefore it is very essential to understand variation of these stresses and estimation in the interfaces play an important role in design and reliability studies of microelectronic assemblies. In this paper, a physical model is proposed for the interfacial shearing and peeling stresses occurring at the interfaces of tri-layered dissimilar materials with the effect of bonding subjected to differential uniform temperature in the layer. It observed from both analytical and numerical study that the shearing stress reduced in the range of 60% to 70% at interface (1-2) and 35% to 40% at (2-3) interface. Peeling stress are continuously reduced in the range of 10% - 20% at (1-2) interface and 13% - 35% at (2-3) interface due to the influence of bond layer. Thus, it indicates that, the bond layer consideration may influence significantly on interfacial stress. It is found that the both interfacial shearing stresses and peeling stresses decreased considerably at the interface with the increase of bond layer thickness.Key words: Tri-layered model, Shearing stress, Peeling stress, Different uniform temperature model, Electronic package Reference [1] Timoshenko, Analysis of Bi-metal Thermostats, J. opt .

Design & Implementation of Zero Voltage Switching Buck Converter
Design & Implementation of Zero Voltage Switching Buck ConverterAbstract: Zero voltage switching (ZVS) buck converter is more preferable over hard switched buck converter for low power, high frequency DC-DC conversion applications. In Zero voltage switching converter, turn on & turn off of a switch occurs at zero voltage that results in lower switching losses. In this converter soft switching is achieved by using resonant components. The optimal values of resonant components are determined by using electric functions derived from circuit configuration. This type of soft switched resonant converter offers very low electromagnetic interference (EMI).This study presents the circuit configuration with least components to realize highly efficient zero voltage switching resonant converter. It's feasibility is confirmed with the developed proto type model and experimental results are verified.Index Terms: Resonant converter, Soft-Switching, Zero-Voltage- Switching (ZVS).

Analysis Of The Structure Of A Material Used In The Manufacture Of Thermal Chucks For Fixing Tools Cutting Using Finite ElementsAbstract: The dynamic stability of machine has its own importance in the quality of the machined product. With the development of new technologies for cutting tools, as the geometries and materials, cutting speeds used today reach values inconceivable for two decades. In the automotive industry steel and cast iron are gradually being replaced by lower density material and even lower costs. In complex shapes tools, heterogeneous material removal in roughing, sudden changes of sections, etc. Stress relieving treatment should be carried out to minimize dimensional variations of form during quenching and tempering. Materials for manufacture of thermal fixing most appropriate for that operating system still needs to be further investigated. Therefore, this study investigated the elastic behavior of the material used in the manufacture of tooling systems for cutting tools. Has been evaluated In fastening system, the temperature variation exerted on the mandrel body region and the thermal expansion where H13 steel can withstand the assembly process by thermal interference.

4. | DESIGN OF A LOW POWER MULTIBAND CLOCK DISTRIBUTION CIRCUIT USING SINGLE PHASE CLOCK
DESIGN OF A LOW POWER MULTIBAND CLOCK DISTRIBUTION CIRCUIT USING SINGLE PHASE CLOCKAbstract: The clock distribution network consumes nearly 70% of the total power consumed by the integrated circuit since this is the only signal which has the highest switching activity. Normally for a multiband clock domain network we develop a multiple PLL to cater the need. This project aim for developing a low power true single phase clock(TSPC) multiband network which will supply for the multi clock domain network. In this paper, a wide band 2/3 prescaler is verified in the design of proposed wide band multimodulus 32/33/47/48 or 64/65/78/79 prescaler. A dynamic logic multiband flexible integer-n divider based on pulse swallow topology is proposed which uses a low power wide band 2/3 prescaler and a wide band multimodulus 32/33/47/48 or 64/65/78/79 prescaler. Since the multimodulus 32/33/47/48 or 64/65/78/79 prescaler has a maximum operating frequency of 6.2GHz, the values of P and S counters can actually be programmed to divide over the whole range of frequencies. However the P and S counter are programmed accordingly. The proposed multiband flexible divider also uses an improved loadable bit cell for swallow counter and consumes a power of 0.96 and 2.2mW. This project is highly useful and recommended for communication applications like Bluetooth, Zigbee, IEEE 802.15.4 and 802.11 a/b/g WLAN frequency synthesizers which are proposed based on pulse swallow topology. This design is modelled using Verilog simulated tool "MODELSIM 6.4b‟ and implemented and synthesized using "Xilinx ISE 10.1‟.Key words: True single phase clock (TSPC), Frequency synthesizer, Multimodulus prescaler, Phase locked loop (PLL) Reference [1] Vamshi Krishna Manthena, Manh Anh Do, Chirn Chye Boon, and Kiat Seng Yeo "A Low-Power Single-Phase Clock Multiband Flexible Divider" , IEEE transactions on very large scale integration (VLSI) systems, vol. 20, no. 2, February 2012.

5. | A Robust Image Watermarking Based On Gradient Vector Quantization and Denoising Using Contourlet Transform
A Robust Image Watermarking Based On Gradient Vector Quantization and Denoising Using Contourlet TransformAbstract: We propose a robust quantization-based image watermarking scheme, called the gradient direction watermarking (GDWM).This is based on the uniform quantization of the direction of gradient vectors. In GDWM, the watermark bits are embedded by quantizing the angles of significant gradient vectors at multiple wavelet scales. The proposed scheme has the following advantages: 1)Increased invisibility of the embedded watermark because the watermark is embedded in significant gradient vectors, 2) robustness to amplitude scaling attacks because the watermark is embedded in the angles of the gradient vectors, and 3) increased watermarking capacity as the scheme uses multiple-scale embedding.. This watermarking technique is more Robust tovarious sizes of watermark Images.we construct a discrete-domain multiresolution and multidirectional expansion using non-separable filter banks, in much the same way that wavelets were derived from filter banks. This construction results in a flexible mutiresolution, local, and directional image expansion using contour segments, and thus it is named the contourlettransform. The discrete contourlet transform has a fast iterated filter bank algorithm that requires order N operations for N-pixel images. Finally, we show simulation results using contourlet denoising method over wavelet.Key words: ContourletTransform ,denoising, digital watermarking,gradientdirection quantization, wavelets.

9. | Design of Engine Mount Bracket for a FSAE Car Using Finite Element Analysis
Design of Engine Mount Bracket for a FSAE Car Using Finite Element AnalysisAbstract: Engine mounts have an important function of containing firmly the power-train components of a vehicle. Correct geometry and positioning of the mount brackets on the chassis ensures a good ride quality and performance. As an FSAE car intends to be a high performance vehicle, the brackets on the frame that support the engine undergo high static and dynamic stresses as well as huge amount of vibrations. Hence, dissipating the vibrational energy and keeping the stresses under a pre-determined level of safety should be achieved by careful designing and analysis of the mount brackets. Keeping this in mind the current paper discusses the modeling, Finite Element Analysis, Modal analysis and mass optimization of engine mount brackets for a FSAE car. As the brackets tend to undergo continuous vibrations and varying stresses, the fatigue strength and durability calculations also have been done to ensure engine safety.Key words: FEA; Modal Analysis; Static Analysis; Optimization; Mounting Bracket Reference [1] Karl D.

Analysis of Two Way Simply Supported Slabs With Central Sunk Using Finite Element MethodAbstract: Majority of the sunken slabs are constructed with supporting beams, which leads to the uneconomy of the structure and difficult in arrangement of the centering work. In this view, it is considered to analyze a two way simply supported slab of different thicknesses with central sunk having one sunk depths.The objective of the paper is to analyze a two way simply supported slab having different thicknesses of 125,150,175,and 200mm with central sunk having depths of 250mm using Finite Element Analysis. This study significantly concludes that, adopting FE analysis using STAAD Pro for analysis of two-way sunken slab is advisable. By using FE analysis using STAAD Pro, we can avoid tedious and lengthy procedure of manual methods. From the chosen sunken slab it was observed that, there is decrease in sagging moments for sunk size of 0.25lx x 0.25ly with respect to two way slab without sunk.Key words: Sunken Slab, Aspect Ratio, Thickness, Depths and Two Way Slab.

Dynamic Response of High Rise Structures Under The Influence of Shear WallsAbstract: This study presents the procedure for seismic performance estimation of high-rise buildings based on a concept of the capacity spectrum method. In 3D analytical model of thirty storied buildings have been generated for symmetric buildings Models and analyzed using structural analysis tool ETABS. The analytical model of the building includes all important components that influence the mass, strength, stiffness and deformability of the structure. To study the effect of concrete core wall & shear wall at different positions during earthquake, seismic analysis using both linear static, linear dynamic and non-linear static procedure has been performed. The deflections at each storey level has been compared by performing Equivalent static, response spectrum method as well as pushover method has also been performed to determine capacity, demand and performance level of the considered building models. From the below studies it has been observed that non-linear pushover analysis provide good estimate of global as well as local inelastic deformation demands and also reveals design weakness that may remain hidden in an elastic analysis and also the performance level of the structure. Storey drifts are found within the limit as specified by code (IS: 1893-2002) in Equivalent static, linear dynamic & non-linear static analysis.Key words: Shear Wall, Story Drift, Displacement, ETABS, High Rise Buildings.

This eco-friendly approach is simple, amenable for large scale commercial production and technical applications. Further, photoluminiscence studies of these Ag-NPs were recorded & suggested that the present particles were suitable for fluorescence emitting probes. These red emitting Ag-NPs exhibited distinct fluorescence properties (both emission and stokeshift).Reference [1.] Mukherjee, P. ; Ahmad, A.; Mandal, D.; Senapati, S.; Sainkar, S. R.; Khan, M.

14. | Experimental Plans and Intensive Numerical Aided Design
Experimental Plans and Intensive Numerical Aided DesignAbstract: This paper deals with new methods to optimize design and subsequent phases, notably in SMEs specialized in manufacturing. SMEs use numerical simulation to verify that the design meets the expectations of the specification, following the current traditional process: CAD model, simulation of its behavior, changes in the CAD model... This process suffers from a number of drawbacks: no overall multi-criteria vision, use of CAD software, by nature "constructive, not considering the overall objectives (even with integration of the parameters or with considering the downstream phases). The research centre DINCCS led several projects, relying on industrial cases to consider more efficient approaches. It is proposed to reverse this process by making intensive simulations, based on trade knowledge, before design itself. In order to plan the great number of simulations, automatically designed plan of experiences are used. We discuss the application of this approach to intensive simulations. The stakes are crucial for SMEs, particularly manufacturing ones. Using numerical simulation (optimization) intensively, before setting the CAD model, they can get unexpected gains (mass, better use of the means of manufacture...).Key words: design process, numerical optimization, intensive simulation Reference [1] Reimeringer M., Gardan N., Gardan N., Ugur H.

16. | Studies on Strength Evaluation of Fiber Reinforced Plastic Composites
Studies on Strength Evaluation of Fiber Reinforced Plastic CompositesAbstract: Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) composites are extensively used for primary structural components such as wing, empennage and fuselage; and sub-structures such as wing ribs and intermediate spars in new generation aircraft as they give rise to high stiffness and strength to weight ratio. The failure load predictions of such composites are extremely important in order to ascertain the flight safety during its service periods. The stress analysis is a part of failure prediction process, since the failure criterion, in order to predict failure load, requires information about stresses and strains in a structure. In the present investigation, the stress analyses of CFRP composite laminates with and without cut-outs have been carried out by using both analytical and finite element approaches. In analytical approach, a mat lab code has been developed for a flat panel using Classical Laminated Plate Theory (CLPT) and different composite failure theories.Key words: circular cut-out, elliptical cut-outs, failure load, flat composite panel, mesh size.

A Performance Comparison of Routing Protocols for Ad Hoc NetworksAbstract: Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET) is a collection of mobile nodes in which the wireless links are frequently broken down due to mobility and dynamic infrastructure. Routing is a significant issue and challenge in ad hoc networks. Many routing protocols have been proposed like OLSR, AODV so far to improve the routing performance and reliability. In this paper, we describe the Optimized Link State Routing Protocol (OLSR) and the Ad hoc On-Demand Distance Vector (AODV). We evaluate their performance through exhaustive simulations using the Network Simulator 2 (ns2) by varying conditions (node mobility, network density).Key words: MANET; OLSR; AODV; ns2.

18. | Language Identification from a Tri-lingual Printed Document: A Simple Approach
Language Identification from a Tri-lingual Printed Document: A Simple ApproachAbstract: In a multi-script, multilingual country like India, a document may contain text lines in more than one script/language forms. For such a multi-script environment, multilingual Optical Character Recognition (OCR) system is needed to read the multi-script documents. To make a multilingual OCR system successful, it is necessary to identify different script regions of the document before feeding the document to the OCRs of individual language. With this context, this paper proposes to work on the prioritized requirements of a particular region- Andra Pradesh, a state in India, where any document including official ones, would contain the text in three languages-Telugu, Hindi and English. So, the objective of this paper is to develop a system that should aim to accurately identify and separate Telugu, Hindi and English text lines from a printed multilingual document and also to group the portion of the document in other than these three languages into a separate category OTHERS. The proposed method is developed by thoroughly understanding the nature of top and bottom profiles of the printed text lines. Experimentation conducted involved 900 text lines for learning and 900 text lines for testing. The performance has turned out to be 95.67%.Key words: Document Image Processing, Multi-lingual document, Language Identification, Top Profile, Bottom Profile, Feature extraction Reference [1] U.

Z - Source Multi Level Inverter Based PV Generation SystemAbstract: In this paper a novel technique of Z-Source multilevel Inverter based PV Generation system is implemented and simulated using MATLAB-Simulink simulation software. The Photovoltaic cells are healthier option for converting solar energy into electricity. Due to high capital cost and low efficiency PV cells have not yet been a fully smart choice for electricity users. To enhance the performance of the system, Z-Source multi level inverter can be used in place of conventional Voltage Source Inverter (VSI) in Solar Power Generation System. The PV cell model is developed using circuit mathematical equations. The Z-Source multilevel inverter is modeled to realize boosted DC to AC conversion (inversion) with low THD. Outcome shows that the energy conversion efficiency of ZSMLI is a lot improved as compared to conventional voltage Source Inverter (VSI). By doing FFT analysis we can know the total THD.Key words: PV Panel; Z-MLI; MPPT; PWM Inverter. Reference [1] R. O. Caceres and I.

In structural applications longer beams are more frequently used. In this work a composite beam is manufactured with glass and epoxy combination. And stress analysis is carried out using derived analytical expressions. This research work carried out will enable to determine the beam strength due to bending loads. The importance of fiber reinforcement in the manufacturing of the beam is studied in terms of bending strength of the beam.

Performance Evaluation of Plate-Fin-And Tube Heat Exchanger with Wavy Fins- A ReviewAbstract: The plate fin-and-tube heat exchangers are widely used in variety of industrial applications, particularly in the heating, air-conditioning and refrigeration, HVAC industries. In most cases the working fluid is liquid on the tube side exchanging heat with a gas, usually air. It is seen that the performance of heat exchangers can be greatly increased with the use of unconventionally shaped flow passages such as plain, perforated offset strip, louvered, wavy, vortex generator and pin. The current study is focused on wavy-fin. The wavy surface can lengthen the path of airflow and cause better airflow mixing. In order to design better heat exchangers and come up with efficient designs, a thorough understanding of the flow of air in these channels is required. Hence this study focuses on the heat transfer and friction characteristics of the air side for wavy fin and tube heat exchanger.Reference [1] Junqi Dong,Jiangping Chen,Wenfeng Zhang,Jinwei Hua Experimental and numerical investigation of thermal -hydraulic performance in wavy fin-and-flat tube heat exchangers, Applied Thermal Engineering 30 (2010) 1377e1386 [2] M.

24. | Spatial Analysis of Soil and Water Quality in Tsunami AffectedAreas of Nagapattinam District, Tamilnadu, India
Spatial Analysis of Soil and Water Quality in Tsunami AffectedAreas of Nagapattinam District, Tamilnadu, IndiaAbstract: In India, the natural disasters, especially the Tsunami in 2004 having exposed our unpreparedness, variability, diverse scientific, engineering, financial and also social processes. Vedaranyamtalukof Nagapattinam coastal region of Tamilnadu, India,was severely affected by Tsunami-2004. Due to its unique geological nature and climate conditions, the quality of soil and water resources was subjected to natural and synthetic changes. The recent efforts of prawn culture and saltpan in these areas also affect the natural resources. This study has revealed the present scenario of soil and water resources by analyzing their chemical parameters in the Tsunami affected areas after ten years of Tsunami-2004. For this study, soil samples (less than 30cm depth from land surface) and groundwater samples (from existing hand/bore pumps) were collected in the study area. It was observed from the analysis that the pH of soil was improved well and EC was lowered significantly except few places. Regarding the available N, P, K of soil, N was low, P and Kwere low to medium range. Further thepH,DO, Turbidity, Hardness,Cl and Mgof groundwater were within the permissible limit;EC and TDS were slight to moderate range for irrigation and drinking.The SAR is within the maximum allowable limit which inferred that groundwater can be used for irrigation without any risk.Thisspatial-temporal variability of soil and water parameters were mapped in GIS environment (Surfer ver. 9) and compared with pretsunami-2004 as well as ground truth scenario. Keeping these results, the soil is suitable for agriculture production. The natural flash flood has helped to reduce contamination of soil and water due to Tsunami-2004. However,due to alkaline in nature the quality of groundwater is not fit for drinking in some places but suitable for irrigation. Among the affected villages, Vedaranyam village has worst quality. This study also recommends suitable management strategies for sustainable development.Key words: Tsunami, water and soil parameters, spatial analysis, Surfer ver. 9 Reference [1.] Ayers R.S.

The main advantages are speed of construction and good control over quality. However there is not much information on its economy. There are several parameters like the inclination of the gable, spans, bay spacing, which control the cost of the structure. In the present paper the above parameters are varied systematically and in each case the gable frame designed for the common loads DL, LL, EQ, and WL. The quantity in each case is obtained and finally the structure which regulates the lowest quantity of steel is recommended.Key words: pre-engineered building, staad pro, working stress method, bay spacing, angle of inclination, span and tapered sections.

26. | Ground Improvement of Dune Sand Fields For The Purpose of Moisture Retention
Ground Improvement of Dune Sand Fields For The Purpose of Moisture RetentionAbstract: Plant growth depends on the use of two important natural resources, soil and water. Soil provides the mechanical and nutrient support necessary for plant growth. Water is the major input for the growth and development of all types of plants. The availability of water, its movement and its retention are governed by the properties of soil. The properties like bulk density, mechanical composition, hydraulic conductivity etc depends on the nature and formation of soil and land use characteristics in addition to the weathering processes and the geological formations. Effective management of the resources for crop production requires the need to understand relationship between soil, water and plants. Study of soil and its water holding capacity is essential for the efficient utilization of irrigation water. Hence identification of geotechnical parameters which influences the water retention capacity and the method of adding admixtures to improve the retention capacity play an important role in Irrigation Engineering. This Paper aims to focuses on improving moisture retention of soil by addition of bentonite clay and experimental analysis for monitoring the variation of moisture retention.Key words: Mixture, Bentonite, Dune sand, Irrometer, Moisture retention.

27. | A Novel Solitude Conserving Location Monitoring Approach for Wireless Sensor Networks
A Novel Solitude Conserving Location Monitoring Approach for Wireless Sensor NetworksAbstract: Observing individual locations with a capable untrusted server impose secrecy threats to the monitored individuals. In this paper we propose "A Novel Solitude Conserving Location Monitoring approach for Wireless Sensor networks". We design two approaches to study nondescript locations in-network approaches, namely quality-aware and resource-aware approaches, that aims to enable the system to give high end quality location monitoring services for end users, while conserving personal location privacy. Both approaches are worked based on k-anonymity solitude (i.e.,an object is indistinguishable among k objects), to enable highly trusted sensor nodes to provide the collective location data of monitored objects for our system. Each collective location is in a form of a observed area X along with the number of monitored objects reside in X. The resource-aware approach objective to optimize the computational and communication value, while quality-aware approach aims to increase the reliability of the collective location data by reducing their observing areas. We use spatial histogram methodology to estimates the distribution of observing objects based on the gathered collective location data. We evaluated these two approaches through simulated experiments. The simulation results shows that these approaches gives high quality location observing services for end users and assure the location secrecy of the monitored objects.Key words: Anonymity, location, solitude spatial histogram, wireless sensor network Reference [1].
