This paper proposes a protocol for reliable broadcasting of life safety messages in Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks (VANETs). In this protocol, main aim is to improve average latency for life safety message. In case of any dramatic change of speed or moving direction, the vehicle is considered abnormal and hence it transmits an emergency warning message. The proposed protocol gives the vehicle in the most dangerous situation the highest priority to transmit the life safety signal. The choice of that vehicle is done locally based on the location, direction, speed, and the breaking distance of the receiving vehicle. The superiority of the proposed protocol over existing protocols is highlighted conceptually by showing the better latency than the related protocol with simulations.Keywords

The purpose of this study was to determine if there exist any relationship between various levels and various dimensions of the home environment of a student with academic achievement in mathematics. For study a sample of 600 students of XI and XII class was chosen from various senior secondary schools of Punjab to find the level their home environment and its relationship with academic achievement in mathematics. Study reveals that there is a significant relationship between academic achievement in mathematics and various dimensions of their home environment.

The purpose of this study was to determine if there exist any relationship between various levels and various dimensions of study habits of a student with academic achievement in mathematics. For study a sample of 600 students of XI and XII class was chosen from various senior secondary schools of Punjab to find the level of study habits and its relationship with academic achievement in mathematics. Study reveals that there is significant relationship between academic achievement in mathematics and students differ significantly on various levels of study habits.

The productivity of pulse crops continues to be quite low due to technological gaps in adoption of pulse technologies and other factors also. The yield of pulses could be increased by demonstrating their cultivation technologies at the farmer's fields under the supervision of scientists working in the operational area. The present study was conducted across 19 villages in Amritsar district of Punjab. Sixty front line demonstrations were conducted by KVK Amritsar from the year 2006 to 2010 during the Kharif seasons. The results of the study revealed that the average yield of summer moong in FLD plots sown after potato crop was highest (12.37q/ha) followed by summer moong sown after pea crop (11.61 q/ha). The least yield of 9.14 q/ha was obtained in the summer moong sown after wheat crop. Similarly the average yield of summer moong in farmer practice sown after potato crop was highest (10.81q/ha) followed by summer moong sown after pea crop (10.27 q/ha). The least yield of 7.93 q/ha was obtained in the summer moong sown after wheat crop. The increment in yield of moong crop after different crops is due to different sowing time and different fertility status of soil under these crops. The higher yields in front line demonstrations were due to dissemination of improved and latest technology viz., HYV, recommended seed rate, fertilization and plant protection measures.Keywords

Vegetables help to combat malnutrition and diversify diets. Kitchen gardening may prove to be a boon for rural people to meet their daily requirements of vegetables and fruits. Most of the farm families having kitchen garden are interested to improve the practice of growing vegetables for their own use but they are facing various constraints. The present study was conducted with the objective to study the perceived constraints in adoption of kitchen gardening by the rural masses. Four villages were selected from different blocks of district Amritsar. Twenty five (25) farm families who were already practicing kitchen gardening were randomly selected from each village, consisting the total sample of 100 respondents (one from each family). The data were collected from each respondent through personal interview method with the help of structured schedule. The constraints as perceived by respondents scored on the basis of magnitude of the problem. The study highlighted that input constraint was most serious constraint followed by general constraints, technical constraints, socio-cultural constraints and post-harvest constraints. Non - availability of quality planting material and seeds of HYVs of vegetables, lack of knowledge about improved varieties, seed rate and, sowing time, seed treatment, major pests and diseases, continuous use of traditional practices for growing vegetables and lack of interest among rural youth towards farming were considered the major constraints in successful adoption of kitchen gardening.Keywords
