Each and every society upholds a social consciousness reciprocal with the prevailing dominant social culture. The social developments of mankind transformed the classes and castes to institutionalized religion. These institutionalized machinery of faith redefines the human relations and rights in accordance with the dominant group’s interest. The governing class joins hand together with these institutionalized religions and make use of it as a means to secure their authority. The socio-religious philosophy of the ruling class wipes out the various social relations and human rights and reign over other parallel thoughts. By using religious textual interpretation they bracket out ‘other’ and women from the mainstream. The Brahminic version of the Hindu philosophy denied the basic rights to the masses and slaughtered the ideals of liberty, equality and fraternity from the social sphere and make use of the common peoples as slaves to secure the power and leisure. The caste discriminations of Hindus degenerated the society as a whole. Ambedkar, Ayyankali, EVR and such others revealed the nature of discriminations and fought against it. Despite the Indian independence the Indian civil society remained in shackles of śāstra’s and continued the violations of rights of the Dalits. The article focuses on the way in which the Hindu Sastras and texts supported the caste hegemony and the denial of human rights for hundreds of years..

Successful social and emotional adjustment in adulthood is determined by the social cognitive ability of a person. The development of social cognition is very crucial during childhood. Children spend most of their active hours at school and hence the school curriculum, schooling, and teaching methodology influence social cognition to a great extent. Semi- urban and rural children have distinct social environments and hence distinct social needs and learning needs. Both these groups have limited social learning opportunities when compared with their urban counter parts. In this case school experiences become the most influencing social environment. This paper aims at comparing and analyzing the influence of the child centered Nali Kali method of teaching in the government schools of Karnataka and the teacher centered Talk Chalk method of teaching usually adopted by other schools on the development of social cognitive abilities in primary school, semi urban and rural children. The study also emphasizes on the demographic and gender differences in the way the two methods influence the social cognition in children. The study further probes into the different activities and concepts in teaching methodologies which foster the growth of social cognitive abilities.

This review paper highlights the recent developments made in the use of plant viral expression vectors and application of agroinfilteration techniques. Plant virus expression vectors were designed to express a gene of interest in plant tissues for the development of vaccine and other biopharmaceuticals. This new platform also provides an ample evidence that the combination of agroinfilteration, and plant viral expression vectors will provide a powerful tool for a rapid and high-level transient expression of recombinant proteins in plants. Furthermore, transient expression of recombinant proteins using syringe agroinfilteration, an efficient, robust, and scalable gene-transfer technology has been exploited recently for the production of many biopharmaceuticals in plants. Therefore, the development of viral expression vectors based on deconstructed plant viruses has significantly increased the accumulation of recombinant proteins in plants. Hence this new technology of gene delivery has opened up a new ray of hope for the commercial production of vaccines and biopharmaceuticals in plant system.

The main objective of this paper is to develop an Android App which is useful especially for the nurses in the ICU (Intensive Care Unit) and the doctors in the hospital. In this management system an Android App is used to reduce the manual work at Health centers. All tasks are performed by the system, like registration details of an individual (i.e. patients, doctors, nurses and others). This system also provides the medical history of a patient in order to take appropriate medical treatment by the doctors before proposing any treatment to a patient, or when the patient is unable to give his details during emergencies like unconsciousness/ coma etc. This management system also monitors the ECG (EKG) i.e. Electrocardiogram of the patient including the prescribed medical treatment & gives alerts (via Bluetooth communication) to the doctors, nurses & the patient’s attendants if the condition of the patient is deteriorating. Early warning or alerts and patient awareness are critical in preventing permanent heart damage and saving much of the heart muscles from further damage. These critical conditions motivated me to propose this App to continuously monitor the condition of the patients in the ICU. All the updated information of any individual can be accessed anywhere by the authorized persons. In addition, this system helps in fixing the doctor’s appointments & enquiries, etc. This app reduces laborious paper work and the burden of file storage, making it Eco-friendly. Experiments were conducted using this App in real-time by collecting the ECG of the patients, in stationary as well as moving conditions. In both the situations, this application fulfilled.

Raman and FTIR spectra of 6-fluoronicotinc acid (6-FNA) have been analyzed using ab-initio and Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations. Four stable structures of 6-fluoronicotinc acid have been found, the structures differ in orientation of COOH with respect to the nitrogen atom. The optimized geometries, structural parameters, harmonic vibrational wave number and intensity of the vibrational band of the 6-FNA have been calculated using ab-initio MP2/6-311++G(d,p) and DFT B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) level of theories. Vibrational assignments have been made. The optimized geometries and Vibrational frequencies of 6-FNA have been compared with the corresponding values of nicotinic acid (NA). It has been found that 6-FNA is more stable than the corresponding structure of nicotinic acid. Most of the Vibrational frequencies have nearly the same magnitude for 6-FNA and NA. However their IR intensities and Raman activities have changed significantly.

The problems addressed in this paper are the procurement problem which states the number of heterogeneous VMs to be procured to run Mapreduce program to complete the execution of jobs with minimal completion time and cost. The next problem is the placement problem where the laborers (Mapper/Reducer) have to be assigned to the available virtual machines in such a way they utilize even the residual resources available to meet the QoS. The paper proposes a Novel (PoHM) Procurement of Heterogeneous Machine algorithm which procures heterogeneous VMs to run Mapreduce based upon the requirements of the task needed to complete the execution. The highlight of the proposed work is, the residual resources of the already procures VMs are utilized before renting new VMs on demand which reduces the overall computational cost. Our proposed PoHM algorithm was enhanced with Best-Fit strategy (BFS) which proved around 39% better result when compared with Homogeneous algorithm, 17% better than RFS and 14% better than FFS algorithms.

Optical wireless communication is a form of optical communication in which unguided visible, infrared (IR), or ultra violet (UV) light is used to carry a signal. Terrestrial point to point OWC systems, also known as the free space optical (FSO) system, operate at the near IR frequencies (750-1600nm). These systems typically use laser transmitters and after a cost- effective protocol- transparent link with high data rates, i.e. 10Gbit/s per wavelength. For long distance wireless optical communication data send from transmitter to receive in the form of packet. Here regenerative repeaters used as node for maintain the energy level of weak signal. These repeaters makes wireless mesh network. Here dijikstra algorithm used for finding the shortest path between transmitter and receiver. Simulation results are carried out by Dijkstra algorithm using MATLAB. The service parameters such as the delay and blocking probability of the designed wireless optical network are analyzed by simulation.

In designing Embedded System, withstanding communication between several different interfacing protocols which are attached to a single main processor is one of the challenging tasks. Also in industries, systems are becoming very complex. Industries system needs to test the site equipment and also environmental conditions so that it can track the state of system in real time. This is more relevant in real time data acquisition and control systems. Also designing and implementing the online embedded web server is challenging part. Popular serial interfacing protocols include: USB, SPI/SSP, CAN, Ethernet, etc., for communication between integrated circuits for low/medium data transfer speed with on board peripherals. The main quality in the designed circuit is using Real Time Operating System (RTOS) on ARM series 32-bit processors, MCB 2300. Compared with the normal ways to control and data acquisition, the device based on the embedded system offers better ability to modify it easily, with an overall design for reliability, durability and ease of installation. This paper explicates the hardware architecture and real time multitask software process based on RL-ARM Library. There are enormous use for such system in control and data acquisition systems. Especially, in network interfaces with various protocol layers, it can be used as a clever gateway or router and so forth.

All optical XOR, AND, OR and NAND gates based on cross-phase modulation. It accomplishes error-free performance at 10 Gb/s and the receiver sensitivity presents for a bit-error rate of 10-9 is below -15.0 dBm. The designing parameters of these gates are more accurate and sensible if we utilize the non-linear characteristics of fiber like Cross gain modulation (XGM).

Carpooling (also car-sharing, ride-sharing, lift-sharing), is the sharing of car journeys so that more than one person travels in a car. By having more people using one vehicle, carpooling reduces each person's travel costs such as fuel costs, tolls, and the stress of driving. Carpooling is seen as a more environmentally friendly and sustainable way to travel as sharing journeys reduces carbon emissions, traffic congestion on the roads, and the need for parking spaces. Authorities often encourage carpooling, especially during high pollution periods and high fuel prices.

The Analog to Digital Converters (ADCs) have been in existence for more than 30 years and an integral part of Software Defined Radio, sensor applications and other potential applications. This paper discusses about the implementation of ADC using the Pulse Width Modulation (PWM). The technique of PWM requires a reference signal to be compared with sampled analog input signal to generate Pulse Width Modulated Signals. The main advantage of such ADC is the extension to multiple simultaneous sampling. Application is for building a cheap ADC in a microcontroller based system. These ADCs also feature fast response and low latency, making them ideal for measuring a single input or multiple inputs in biomedical applications.

This paper describes the project of Facial expression recognition based on local binary patterns . There are many channels or ways of conveying human emotions like behaviours, actions, poses, facial expressions and speech. Facial expressions have a higher importance as they can be easily recognized. In this project, we are working on a system which can automatically recognize the emotions represented on a face. With the help of image processing, the system can classify between the universal emotions: Happiness, Sadness, Anger, Disgust, Surprise and Fear. Automatic facial expression analysis is an interesting and challenging problem which impacts important applications in many areas such as human-computer interaction and data driven animation. Deriving effective facial representative features from face images is a vital step towards successful expression recognition. In this paper, we evaluate facial representation based on statistical local features called Local Binary Patterns (LBP) for facial expression recognition. Simulation results illustrate that LBP features are effective and efficient for facial expression recognition. A real-time implementation of the proposed approach is also demonstrated which can recognize expressions accurately at the rate of 4.8 frames per second.

In this paper, the neuromuscular diseases are classified into Myopathy, Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) and Normal persons by extracting wavelet features from dominant Motor Unit Action Potential (MUAP). Initially, the electromyography (EMG) signal is preprocessed by three techniques namely, sampling, normalization and band pass filtering. The selection of dominant MUAP is done by dividing the preprocessed EMG signal into several frames using windowing technique and evaluating the energy associated with each frame. Among all frames, the frame which has the highest energy content is selected as the dominant MUAP. Wavelet features of dominant MUAP are obtained using Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT). Statistics over the set of wavelet features are extracted to reduce the dimensionality. For the classification purpose, first k-nearest neighbor classifier is used and its performance is evaluated. Further, to improve the performance, Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier is used. The performance of the proposed method is measured in terms of specificity, sensitivity and total classification accuracy.
