Changing lifestyles and environment have led to a great change in the health profile of the human population. Higher stress levels among individuals, sedentary lifestyle and deficient diets have increased the onset of degenerative diseases like cancer, diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular disease. One of the common pathways by which the causative factors initiate or promote the diseases in the human system is through the generation of free radicals. The treatment for these diseases, in the above perspective, target at quenching free radicals to prevent further complications besides facilitating cure.References

In an era where innovation and entrepreneurship play a pivotal role in driving economic growth and societal progress, educational institutions are increasingly recognizing the importance of fostering an entrepreneurial mindset among their students. This case study focuses on the exemplary efforts of Thiagarajar College of Engineering in Madurai to cultivate entrepreneurship and nurture a thriving startup culture within its campus. The study begins by delving into the college's strategic approach to curriculum development. It examines how Thiagarajar College of Engineering has integrated entrepreneurship-related courses and modules across various disciplines, equipping students with the knowledge and skills required to ideate, validate, and execute innovative business concepts. By analyzing the college's curriculum adaptation, this study sheds light on the methods employed to seamlessly integrate entrepreneurship education with technical learning. The role of industry collaborations in enriching the entrepreneurial ecosystem is another key aspect under scrutiny. The case study examines how the college has fostered partnerships with various startup companies. Furthermore, the case study explores the array of support systems established by the college to encourage students' entrepreneurial journeys. This includes the provision of mentorship from experienced entrepreneurs, access to seed funding and incubation facilities, and guidance on intellectual property protection. By investigating these support mechanisms, the study elucidates how Thiagarajar College of Engineering (TCE) empowers its students to transform their ideas into viable startups.Keywords

If the number of user grows in huge amount in a Recommendation System, the standard approach of sequentially examining each item and looking at all interacting users does not scale. In our proposed system we solve this problem by developing a MapReduce algorithm for the item comparison and Top-N recommendation problem that scales linearly with respect to a growing number of users. We use Similarity-based neighborhood methods for recommendation; infer their predictions by finding users with similar taste or items that have been similarly rated. In Mapreduce, the data to process is split and stored block-wise across the machines of the cluster in a distributed File system (DFS) and is usually represented as (key,value) tuples. It uses parallel algorithm which partitions the data across the clusters and in general it supports a wide range of similarity measures.Keywords
