The tourism industry is an indicator of the degree of internationalization, modernization, economic development, income generator, foreign exchange earner and employment generator of a country. Tourists' satisfaction is an important factor to determine tourism industry in long run. Tourists' satisfaction is the final target of total quality management, and many attempts have been made at its measurement. Due to the increasing competition in the leisure and tourism market, satisfaction-related studies and researches have been gaining attention. This study investigated the south Indian tourists' satisfaction towards Udhagamandalam. A total 200 tourists are responded all the questions of interview schedule at the various tourists place of entire district. There were 19 variables used to measure tourists' satisfaction. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics to report demographic variables and responses to the interview schedule. The inferential statistics was used to test various hypotheses relating to tourists satisfaction. Results of the analyses showed that the respondents have high levels of satisfaction during the trip, Udhagamandalam natural diversity attraction had secured first place followed by Climate and weather conditions, Scenic beauty, Sightseeing, Flora and fauna, varieties of flowers and trees. The analyses also revealed that tourists have lower level satisfaction to the various facilities such as basic amenities, road connectivity, entree fees, shopping facilities, medical facilitates. This research study is finally concluded 83 percentages of tourists expressed overall satisfied Udhagamandalam tour trip, 79 percentages of tourists also have mind to revisit in this place in future.Keywords

Security protocols for Internet of Things (IoT) need to be light weighted due to limited resources and scalability are available in the internet. Small and low-energy devices are suitable for cryptographic solution because of their energy and space limitations. The Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) is used to generate link fingerprints for communicating IoT nodes. Correlation Coefficient is used for matching the link fingerprint. Co-relation Coefficient is used to communicating secured data transfer. Adversarial Node can be detected foe specific link in between the two nodes. Data Provenance has achieved by comparison of packet header.

Cashew (Anacardium occidentale L.) is an evergreen perennial tree, originated from Brazil and now widely grown in the tropics. Cashew is a wonder tree crop, where almost all parts of the tree ranging from roots to apples and nuts are used in various fields. The aim of the present investigation is to analyse the kernels (nuts), var. W210 for understanding its proximate, physico-chemical, nutritive and anti-nutritive aspects in three forms, viz., raw, roasted and boiled state. The roasted samples are comparatively rich in crude carbohydrate (43.26±0.86 g), crude protein (22.80±1.22 g) and calorific value (498.32±1.64 k. cal). Highest lipid and fibre content is reported in raw sample as (33.02±0.94 g) and (8.56±1.62 g) respectively. Moisture content (16.65 ±1.88 g) is the highest to be reported in boiled sample. From the results, it has been clearly understood, that the minerals except iron, are rich in roasted than the other two forms. Roasted sample showed the maximum value of nitrogen (3.66±0.47 g), potassium of about 676.3±0.86 mg, calcium of 75.5±0.44 mg, magnesium of 355.4±0.50 mg and phosphorus of 398.6±1.78 mg/100 g. The iron content was high in raw sample of about 7.73±0.77 mg comparatively. The physico-chemical analysis shows that the total ash content was high in roasted sample which is recorded as 3.05±0.82 g. Other parameters such as acid insoluble ash, water-soluble extractive, alcohol soluble extractive values are found higher in roasted state. The results of anti-nutrient analysis gives a transparent idea that the raw sample has high content of phytic acid (0.445±0.004%), tannins (0.787±0.005%), saponins (0.101±0.003%) and oxalate (0.099±0.004%). The study addresses the nutritional and the anti-nutritional aspect of A. occidentale in its three forms and from the results obtained, we can conclude that the roasted form of seeds are found to be nutritionally superior for consumption as foods for humans.Keywords
