Abstract

Cloud based E-Learning is the method to reduce cost and complexity of data accessing, which are controlled by third party services. Traditional E-Learning methods are incorporated with cloud computing technology to provide massive advantages to the academic users but it compromises in security aspects. Proposed methodology ensures data availability and provides solution to protect indispensable data from the attackers. This study identifies different security issues in cloud service delivery model with an aim to suggest a solution in the form of security measures related to the cloud based e-learning. Different types of attacks in service delivery models of e-learning proposed by different researchers are discussed. Threats, security requirements, and challenges involved are also taken into consideration. This study of e-Learning models advocates users to access their data in the cloud through a secured layer using the internet.

Keywords

Cloud Security, Cloud Service Delivery Models, Cloud Security Attacks, E-Learning, Data Availability, Cloud Security Challenges and Threats.

Abstract

To gather useful information from the web has become a challenging issue for users. Current web information gathering systems attempt to satisfy user requirements by capturing their information needs. For this purpose, user profiles are created for user background knowledge description. When representing user profiles many models have utilized only knowledge from either a global analysis or user local information. Through the user profiles, a knowledge representation and reasoning is proposed in this paper. The model constructs user personalized ontologies by extracting global analysis and discovering user background knowledge form user local instance repositories. The proposed ontology model in this paper provides a solution to emphasizing global and local analysis in a single computational model. This ontology model becomes a successful model by evaluating it and it is compared against the benchmark models in web information gathering and also the model has extensive contributions to the fields of Information Retrieval and Information Systems.

Keywords

Web Information Gathering, User Profiles, Ontology, Global Analysis, Local Analysis.

Abstract

Security in communications especially in group communication plays a major role in today's world and it has to be implemented properly with the help of an efficient and robust encryption and decryption methodology. In a Multicast communication the media used is wireless and it is difficult to communicate the message secure and secretly to the group members in the normal form of message, thus we go in search of an efficient cryptographic scheme for encrypting that plain text into a cipher text. In this paper, we propose a cryptographic scheme based on RSA and the primer concept used in PCR technology. The proposed scheme yields better result than the existing schemes.

Keywords

Secure, Multicast, DNA Cryptography, RSA, Group key, Primer.

Abstract

Smooth transition from pregnancy to lactation is important for high productive and reproductive performance during later postpartum period in dairy animals. On the other hand, the poor transition often leads to huge economic loss to dairy farmers due to compromised production and reproduction. Therefore, understanding the causes and consequence of metabolic changes during the transition period is very important for postpartum health management. In this review, metabolic changes with reference to negative energy balance in transition cow and its effect on health and reproduction during the later postpartum period in dairy animals are discussed besides the role of metabolic inflammation in postpartum performance in dairy animals.

Keywords

Acute Phase Proteins, Dairy Cows, Inflammatory Cytokines, Negative Energy Balance, Transition Period.

Abstract

Aim: Evaluation of the effect of clinical mastitis (CM) and its treatment outcome on the reproductive performance in crossbred cows retrospectively.
Materials and Methods: Datasets of 835 lactating cows affected with CM during a period of 12 years (2001-2012) were considered for this study. Mastitis treatment related data and reproductive parameters such as days to first detected heat (DTFDH), days to first insemination (DTFI), days open (DO), and number of services per conception (SC) were collected from mastitis treatment and artificial insemination registers, respectively. Data were analyzed by ANOVA using SPSS 20 software. The means were compared with the Duncan’s multiple comparison post-hoc test.
Results: CM affected cows had significantly (p<0.05) higher DTFDH, DTFI, DO and SC compared to clinically healthy cows. Cows diagnosed with a single episode of CM had significantly (p<0.05) delayed DTFDH while, DO and SC were significantly higher (p<0.05) in cows diagnosed by multiple episodes of CM. SC was significantly (p<0.05) higher in cows diagnosed with both relapse and recurrence. Severe CM affected cows had significantly (p<0.05) altered reproductive parameters. The reproductive parameters were altered to high extent when CM occurred during the breeding period.
Conclusion: CM-affected cows had higher DTFDH, DTFI, DO and SC compared to clinically healthy cows. The negative effects of CM on reproduction parameters were higher when CM occurred during the breeding period.

Abstract

Skin diseases occurs in different patterns due to wide ranges of factor such as climatic conditions, geographical locations, pollution, hygienic standards, age, level of health care and many more. These diseases cause a lot of distress in human health. Intuitionistic fuzzy and intuitionistic fuzzy soft set theory plays a major role in handling vague concepts and it has been applied in many fields. In this paper we aim at finding the age group in which maximum skin diseases occurs using the concept of intuitionistic fuzzy soft set by using AGEMSD measure.
