Background: There are only few epidemiological studies regarding epilepsy from this region. The classification of epilepsies has not been adequately stressed in these studies.
Objective: To assess the occurrence of idiopathic epilepsies in Punjab (A region situated in the Indo-Gagentic Plains), India.
Methods: A door to door, cross - sectional epidemiological survey covering an entire 103693 population residing in 74 contiguous villages situated outside the municipal limits of the District Headquarter town. Survey of all houses was done by general village level workers following which detailed case work up was done by postgraduate physicians. Final case identification was done by neurologists.
Results: Active epilepsy (n = 795) and inactive epilepsy (n = 128) comprised 74.78 % and 12.04 % of total number of seizure cases (n = 1063) and 86.13 % and 13.87 % of all epilepsy cases (n = 923) respectively. Non epileptic conditions comprised 11.74 % of total number of seizure cases (n = 1063). Single and febrile seizures were predominant among the non epileptic conditions being 6.2 % and 3.57 % of total number of seizure cases (n = 1063). Active epilepsy cases (n = 795) included electroclinical syndromes and constellations (n = 117, 14.72 %), symptomatic (n = 153, 19.24 %) and probably symptomatic cases (n = 513, 64.53 %) and cases with dual diagnosis (n = 12, 1.51 %). Idiopathic epilepsies (n = 112) consisted of idiopathic generalized epilepsies (n = 111) and benign childhood epilepsy (n = 1). Juvenile myoclonic epilepsy (n = 42) predominated idiopathic generalized epilepsy cases (n = 111).
Conclusions: Use of different terminology, definitions and criteria for diagnosis of various types of epilepsy precludes comparison between this study and other studies. This study showed significant variation in juvenile myoclonic epilepsy cases regarding sex distribution, diurnal variation and precipitating factors as compared to other studies. These differences need further confirmation.

We identify security challenges related to the communication between solar-powered wireless sensors. In this paper, we focus on detecting and preventing masquerade, packet dropping and data forging attacks. These attacks result from software or hardware vulnerabilities. We propose a solution to make software installed on sensors tamper-resistant by using Trusted Platform Module to preventthese attacks.Keywords

The global renewable energy industry is progressing at a rapid pace because of innovation in solar energy resources worldwide. However, with this rapid growth, challenges of scaling solar energy harvesting operations and sustaining profits are paramount to various stakeholders. To manage this key issue of scaling, we strongly believe that advances in Internet of Things (IoT) and related technology can drive the next revolution in the global solar energy industry. Managing solar energy systems using IoT is necessary to provide reliable power supplies to the consumer, and makes it possible to data acquisition and control the action that allows various stakeholders to maintain, operate and control these systems, reducing installations costs and avoiding unwanted electric power disruptions.
This paper discusses the role of IoTin managing solar energy systems, and benefits of solar energy to power the Internet of Things devices. We address the current solar energy market and trends and discuss the most recent solar energy applications. Our preliminary work includes a detailed review of some software platforms and tools for managing solar energy systems. Finally, we provide an overview of some challenges and future research directions for solar energy technology.

Service quality is the overall impression of relative superiority or inferiority of the organization and its services to the consumers. This study explores the evolution and development of service quality concept in the Indian setting through an appraisal of 24 landmark models relevant to both manufacturing and service organizations. The main objective of this paper is to highlight the evolution, development and current status of service quality concept and its measurement models proposed in the Indian context in an ontological manner and carry out a critically examination stating limitations thereof. The paper aims to bring out a new standardized yardstick for measuring service quality befitting for Indian industrial organizations, if possible. The article may appeal to new researchers in India or other emerging economies since it not only brings out the latest trends in service quality measurement, but also offers valuable help and directions to researchers and practitioners working in the area of service quality improvement.Keywords
