Solenopsis mealybug, (Phenacoccus solenopsis) infests cotton at Perambalur district of Tamil Nadu. During the surveys carried out during 2008-10, coccinellids Scymnus nubilus Mulsant, Hyperaspis maindroni Sicard, green lacewing, spiders, Aenasius bambawalei Hayat, Homalotylus eytelwenii Ratzeburg (Encyrtidae) Promuscidea unfasciativentris Girault and Coccophagus sp. (Aphelinidae) were recorded. The per cent emergence of S. nubilus was highest (68%) during second week of February and lowest (6%) during last week of November. The highest percentage (18%) of H. maindroni was recorded during second week of February and lowest (2%) during third week of March. The highest parasitisation (76%) by A. bambawalei was recorded during last week of February whereas it was lowest (8%) during last week of December. Similarly, the highest parasitisation (28%) by P. unfasciativentris was recorded during third week of February whereas it was lowest (2%) during third week of March. But the percent parasitized mealybug by Coccophagus sp. was very lower than others. A. bambawalei and P. unfasciativentris were most common parasitoids on mealybug P. solenopsis in cotton.Keywords

A bibliometric analysis of the growth, authorship and publication patterns of forensic science literature for the period 2001 to 2013 was done using the data obtained from PubMed. MS-Excel worksheet was used for data analysis. The study revealed the exponential growth of forensic science literature. The relative growth rate fell from 0.83 in the year 2002 to 0.17 in the year 2013. The mean collaborative Index was 3.5; mean degree of collaboration was 0.89; mean collaborative coefficient was 0.6119 and mean modified collaborative coefficient was 0.6121 during the period of study. Forty one authors have contributed more than one percent of the total publication. Ten journals have contributed more than one percent of the total papers. Among these 'Journal of Forensic&Legal Medicine' ranks first with 16.10% papers. Cluster map of co-words was also created using VOSviewer.Keywords

The navigational tools are plays a vital role to find the route of ships. Among that path manoeuvrings equipment is an important equipment of the navigation system which uses manoeuvring all-digital operation technology to help people to use a sea chart digitally. Here presented a design of a new device based on the integrated navigation theory and the conventional apparatus. In this new system adopted the embedded architecture based on ARM, and the Linux real-time operating system was selected as the software platform, and use the Integrated Development Environment to achieve functional. To use ARM, this has high definition and less power consumption, and the real-time-system of Linux. This new device has more functions, high stability, less weight, less volume, less cost, less power consumption and accuracy of the device is maintained by the federated filter algorithm.Keywords

Legumes (pulses) contain a wide array of antinutritional factors (ANFs) associated with their nutrients. Suitable scientific and technological processing methods are needed for the elimination of ANFs without affecting the nutritional potential of the pulses. In the present study the selected underutilized pulses [Mucuna monosperma DC wall ex and Mucuna pruriens var. utilis. (Dc wall ex Wight) (Baker ex Burck)] were subjected to differential processing methods to assess their effectiveness in eliminating oligosaccharides which cause flatus in consuming humans. Between the two treatments (soaking followed by cooking and crude α-galactosidase treatment), the crude α-galactosidase enzyme treatment is found to be more effective in eliminating significant levels of oligosaccharides (70-90%).

Objectives: Recommender systems in an E-commerce scenario, aim at improving a product’s visibility to a customer. Existing recommendation systems incorporate traditional algorithms and have not been built to consider many behavioral patterns of the user. This opens a huge scope for improvement. Methods/Statistical Analysis: The proposed research work is set to an emphasis on the user’s social network, location, history, patterns based on history (time series), relationship between users, similarity between users and similarity between the items that are in the subset of recommendations to be made. The raw data collected is first fed into a Bi-clustering algorithm called the Bi-Max. Then, Pearson’s Coefficient is used to find the degree of similarity and filter out similar users based on a set threshold. Further filtering is done based on user networks and location of the user based on their latitudinal and longitudinal data obtained. Findings: The similar product has identified based on the degree of similarity. Similar users have been filtered out from the large set of users. It is much more likely that a given user will find a product that they would be interested in. Applications/Improvements: The proposed system has been used for the online purchase of any product. The performance of the proposed system was compared with the traditional approach of K-Means algorithm and the results show increased efficiency produced the recommendation by the proposed model.Keywords

Objectives: There have been many traditional product recommender systems in the past, but they were mostly based on collaborative or content filtering, historical transaction records or website browsing history of the users. This approach leads to sparsity and cold-start issues. Methods/Statistical Analysis: The proposed system is a hybrid one and can improve the suitability and the accuracy of recommender systems with the help of users’ and products’ demographic info and the ratings of a brand name, constantly updated in the e-commerce and social media websites. Findings: Experiments on the actual dataset reveal that friends with similar tendencies select the similar items and this approach can solve the relevant data sparsity and cold start problems. Initially, the system loads the data about the friends who have given product ratings and selects a target cold start user. Then it predicts his/her tech level and cost level using BMART algorithm. With the help of these, it finds the user-friends and user-items similarity using the cosine and Euclidean cluster similarity methods respectively. It then feeds these into the proposed ranking algorithm to find the relevance scores of the products to the target user and based on this the recommended product links are displayed. Application/Improvement: The outputs reveal that the proposed system gives very accurate and personalized product recommendations to the user.Keywords

The ever growing Semiconductor industry is turning today towards high-κ gate dielectrics in transistor manufacturing processes to meet the need for higher speed transistors while keeping power consumption under control. The thickness of silicon dioxide (SiO2) is very less so it produces the tunneling current leakage, high power consumption and produces high heat when scaling of the transistor. A technique has been developed to fabricate a Thin Film Transistors (TFT) using stacked high- κ nanomaterials. Here in this work using stacked ZrO2 and Al2O3 as high-κ dielectric nanomaterials, ITO/PET substrate which is flexible, and ZnO as a semiconducting layer provides high performance to the device. Through this proposed approach the above problems are solved and the transistor could be shrunk below 32 nm.

EPANET is widely used for pipe network analysis. The EPANET manual, although very detailed, still lacks simple case study examples to help students to appreciate its application better. This study is designed to demonstrate the manual calculations and its verification through EPANET for simple pipe flow problems in fluid mechanics course of civil engineering curriculum. The case study examples are solved by involving the students themselves. This has not only created a deeper interest in the course but also helped the students to understand the advantages and limitations of using software.Keywords
