Active Queue Management (AQM) is the technique of signaling Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) sources from middle routers with the focus of managing queue utilization and delay. In wireless networks, where the accessible link bandwidth is unreliable with time, it is significant to examine the robustness of the congestion control algorithms against the capacity of disturbance. The main purpose of an RQM mechanism is to offer low delay and low loss service in best-effort service networks. In this work a modified RQM algorithm based on feedback compensation technique is proposed. The algorithm is called Modified Proportional Integral based series compensation, and Position feedback compensation (Modified PIP). The performance of Modified RQM with Feedback (MFPIP) is compared to existing RQM based on the End-to-End delay and bandwidth utilization. From the experiments and analysis it is found that the Modified RQM with Feedback (MFPIP) is more responsive to and robust under time-varying network conditions than existing RQM.Keywords

Background: Many women find that some basic home remedies can help to relieve the dysmenorrhea. Dysmenorrhea had an adverse effect on school performance reflected in low concentration during classes, difficulties in accomplishing home work and school absenteeism. It also limited participation in sports and social activities.
Objectives: To evaluate the effectiveness of structured teaching programme on home remedies among adolescent girls.
Methods: An evaluative approach with pre experimental one group pretest posttest design was adopted in order to evaluate the effectiveness of structured teaching programme on knowledge regarding home remedies on reducing dysmenorrhea among 60 samples selected by stratified random sampling technique. Demographic proforma and structured closed ended knowledge questionnaire regarding home remedies on reducing Dysmenorrhea were used to gather pre and post data. A teaching programmeregarding home remedies on reducing Dysmenorrhea was provided for the subjects after the pretest. The post test was conducted on the seventh day and the data collected from the subjects were analyzed by descriptive and inferential statistics.
Results: The data indicated the mean percentage of posttest (75%) knowledge score was higher than the mean percentage of pretest (57.14%) knowledge score. The data presented showsthat't' value computed between mean pretest and posttest scores is statistically significant [t(59)=16.15, table value t(59)= 1.64 , P< 0.05]. Thisrevealed that there was a significant difference between the mean pretest and Posttest knowledge scores regarding home remedies on dysmenorrhea among adolescent girls.
Conclusion: The study concluded that the adolescent girls had less knowledge regarding home remedied on dysmenorrhea and the overall findings of the study indicated that there was an increase in the knowledge of subjects following the administration of structured teaching programme. This showed that structured teaching programme was effective in improving the knowledge of adolescent girls.
