Large datasets are being outsourced with help of data owners and mining experts. This type of large datasets are being mined to extract hidden knowledge and patterns that assist decision makers in making effective, efficient and timely decisions in an ever increasing competitive world. In general owner need to define the usability constraints manually to preserve the knowledge contained in the dataset. This paper aims at creating a framework to define the usability constraints in an automated fashion. This novel formal model facilitates a data owner to define usability constraints and to preserve the knowledge contained in the datasets in automated fashion and to provide security to outsourced dataset. We implemented and tested our model on different data sets .Our model not only preserve knowledge contained in the datasets but significantly enhances security to datasets compared with existing system.

Embedded Systems are playing a vital role in all the fields. Everything is embedded system in the modern world now a days right from the AC to Pacemaker including so many other applications as well. So we thought of making use of embedded system in the field of Medicine. And most importantly our eyes! We are trying to deploy microcontroller for intraocular pressure monitoring as glaucoma is the origin of blindness, in which the optic nerve is damaged, leading to advance and permanent loss of vision. It is found that raised intraocular pressure is a major risk factor for developing glaucoma (above 22mmHg or 2.9Kpa). In fact 6 million individuals are blind in both eyes from this disease. Often glaucoma has no symptoms, which can suddenly result in vision loss and it requires early detection, regular eye exams and treatment to prevent the eye sight. A number of medications are currently in use to treat glaucoma and we have given the complete set up details and implementation ideas as well along with clear analysis of results for detecting intraocular pressure in the eye in order to prevent glaucoma. Many researches are going out to find the cause for increasing the fluid pressure in the human eye and to improve its diagnosis and treatment.Keywords

The Human-Elephant Conflict (HEC) assessment study was carried out from May 2013 to August 2014 in Coimbatore Forest Division, Tamilnadu, South India. Totally 438 persons were interviewed from the forest fringe villages of six forest ranges of the Coimbatore Forest Division. This study revealed that 6 Forest Ranges were affected by elephant crop raids. Total frequency of elephant's attempt to raid the crop fields (n=409) were recorded as 2070. Crop raiding attempts and success was highest in Boluvampatti Range. Lowest attempts were recorded in Sirumugai Range. Totally 31 crop species were recorded during the study period, of which 24 species were raided by elephants at various intensities. Banana (Musa paradisia) (139.49 acres), Sorghum (Sorghum vulgare) (122.35 acres), Areca nut (Areca catechu) (18993 trees), Coconut (Cocus nucifera) (4701 trees) were the most raided crops by elephants. The study recorded 96 human casualties caused by elephants over the last 16 years. The result showed that drastic increase in human death was in the last five years. The human causalities between 2010 and 2014 alone attributed 59% of overall deaths. Most of the human deaths (67%) were recorded in outside of the forest areas. January (16.0%) and August (10.0%) months were found as highest human death caused by elephants in the year. Most of the human deaths were occurred between 1800 hrs and 2200 hrs. Totally 133 elephant deaths were recorded from 1999 to 2014. Among the causes of elephant deaths, disease attributed 37.6% followed by natural (27.1%), electrocution (18%) and slipped from slopes (6%).Keywords

Background/Objectives: PROSOL is a community-driven android based application that allows users to interact with the different Educational Leads from different universities, Institutions and others linked with the Application. Methods/Statistical Analysis: PROSOL implements the query processing using Suffix Array Algorithm, which places the searches based on the prefix value of the query, if the query doesn't matches with the existing options then new query handler will be generated to handle the request. Findings: Although many similar concepts exists, what separates PROSOL from other such existing interfaces is that, PROSOL in itself is a separate world of queries under which raised queries by one user will be resolved by team of experts synchronized with the application interface .This application gives members chance to earn points based on their response to the queries, upon which rewards will be given. This makes the application interactive and also encourages the participation of more members. Applications/Improvement: Use to assess the skill levels of peoples and, also acts as forum to solve problems of users.Keywords

The important problem in mining is that of selecting a fleet of trucks and loaders for use in extracting ore and waste throughout the life of the mining operation. The cost of the truck and loader fleet has been estimated as being up to 55% of the total cost of the operation making purchasing the correct combination of trucks and loaders critical. This system provides a full line of products and software to track the data units attached to the trucks. From the truck side, loaded & temperature sensors are denoting the truck’s details. They are continuously monitored by GSM module that transfers the details to the monitor section. Therefore, In this project, We completely monitoring the trucks & send the details to the respective sections.

Distributed generation faces several issues when integrated to power grid in large scale. Unintentional islanding is one such issue which needs to be addressed. Several methods already exist in literature to detect islanding instant like positive feedback method, passive method and communication based methods. This paper provides an overview of islanding phenomenon, theoretical explanation on islanding and the dynamics of the typical distributed generation system in islanded mode.Keywords

This paper aims to propose a novel technique for improving the Quality of Service (QoS) of multimedia applications in Mobile Adhoc Networks (MANET) by using Modified Dynamic Mapping algorithm, Multipath Transport (MPT), and Multi Description Coding (MDC). The study strives to attain the intended improvement by applying MDC in the application layer, Lightweight User Datagram Protocol (UDPLite) in the transport layer, MPT at the network layer, and Modified Dynamic Mapping in the Media Access Control (MAC) layer. In contrast to the conventional methods, it is realized that this method attains an increase of 30.84% in Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR) and 18.57% decrease in delay.Keywords
