The Indian desert flora has an important place in the field of desert floristics , as it support western as well as eastern elements along with higher percentage of endemic plants. There are numerous plant species which are confined to western bulge of our country and are less known at this point of time in other areas. However species viz; Commiphora wightii (Gugal) and Tephrosia falciformis (Rati Biyani) are now under application in the field of medicine. Besides mitigating the ethno-medicinal needs of the desert peasantry , these species offer potential for conservation and optimum use in the field of medicines. The results of the present study clearly infer the possibilities of conservation of the some of the species investigated. However , detailed study on their physio-chemical composition would provide more information on the economic values of individual plant species. Efforts are continuing on investigation of many more species , which would provide valuable information on different aspects of conservation , and propagation of endemic species for better eco-environment in the extreme arid regions along with their medicinal value.

An experiment was conducted to determine the effect of sowing depth and seed size on germination and growth of Colophospermum mopane. Out of the three seed sizes and four depth of sowing large sized seed sown at 5 mm depth showed significant increase in mean germination per cent, daily germination, germination value, shoot/ischolar_main length and dry matter production than the other two type of seeds viz.,elongated small size and round shape seeds sown at deeper depth. The study revealed that shallow sowing depth and large seeds can be used for better nursery raising for this species- Controllability for the Nonlinear Fuzzy Neutral Integrodifferential Equations with Nonlocal Conditions

In this paper, we devoted study the controllability for the nonlinear fuzzy neutral integrodifferential equations control system in EN. Moreover we study the fuzzy solution for the normal, convex, upper semicontinuous, and compactly supported interval fuzzy number. The results are obtained by using the Banach Fixed point theorem.Keywords

Osteoarthritis is one of the commonest problem leads to severe impairments and disability. Physiotherapy plays a major role in the rehabilitation of patients with Osteo arthritis. In this current era of Evidence based practice it is important to have preset protocol to improve the effectiveness of the treatment. This article is a proposed protocol for the management of Osteoarthritis knee.Keywords

This research paper mainly focuses on system architecture for smart healthcare using an advanced Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) and improving the efficiency of sensor to get the data immediately even there is patient in critical condition. It specifically targets assisted-living residents and others who may benefit from continuous, remote health monitoring. It focuses the advantages, objectives, and status of the design and multi-channel cluster clustering algorithm for increasing efficiency. An experimental living space has been constructed at the Lab for evaluation. Early results suggest a strong potential for WSNs to open new research perspectives for low-cost, ad hoc deployment of multimodal sensors for an improved quality of medical care and data retrieval time is very low.

The hypothesis of the paper is to focus on the useage of electronic resources and internet services provided by the Tamil Nadu self finance engineering college libraries. It also highlights the use of e-resources by faculty members and students of self financing engineering colleges in villupuram district. The purpose of seeking information, formal and informal sources used by faculty in searching the relevant information is studied in the paper. It also discuses frequency of their visit to the library and tools used for searching the information.
