 Abstract

The Indian national movement was one of the biggest mass movement modern societies has ever seen. It was basically the result of fundamental contradiction between the interest of the Indian people and that of British colonialism. To end to British colonialism in India, National movement came into existence. The British crushed the movement time to time but they could not crush the spirit of nationalism among Indian. At least India got Independence on 15-Aug-1947. Behind this Independence the concept of the Partition has also emerged and the creation of the two dominions, India and Pakistan. Thus, this paper covers the techniques adopted by Indian National congress and Muslim league in the national movement leading towards partition of India.

 Abstract

Parents are the most important and influential persons in the life of a child. Children depend on their parents to protect and take care of them while parents monitor and endorse their safety and well-being. Parenting plays a pivotal role in the upbringing of a child. It is an art which involves boosting and assisting the physical, emotional, social, intellectual development of the child right from birth. Ayurveda considered as the basic life science lays special emphasis on parenting. The lines �Taccha nityam prayunjeeta Swasthyam yen anuvartate� from the treatise Caraka Samhita points out the fact that nutrition forms the basic foundation of health. This principle indicates the importance of balanced diet and also emphasizes that one has to inculcate healthy eating habits right from childhood. The importance of child nutrition and its detrimental effects are well explained in Kashyapa Samhita. Healthy development of the child does not wholly rest with the parents but the task of ensuring the same lies with the social community as well. Urbanization which is rapidly spreading throughout developing countries is ensuing changing proportion of urban to rural population. Substantially, it is the urban poor who are at the interface between underdevelopment and industrialization. Society benefits socially and economically from a healthy and thriving child. Accomplishment of the same is achieved by serving support to parents through programs and services of Organizations or Government at community level, state and central levels.

 Abstract

Portland cement concrete industry has grown astronomically in recent years. It will continue to grow as the result of continuous urban development. However, Portland cement concrete posses problems such as durability and carbon dioxide emission. Many concrete structures have shown serious deterioration, way before their intended service life, especially those constructed in a corrosive environment (Mehta 1997). Geopolymer is a class of aluminosilicate binding materials synthesized by thermal activation of solid aluminosilicate base materials such as fly ash, metakaolin, GGBS etc., with an alkali metal hydroxide and silicate solution. These binders are currently attracting widespread attention due to their potential utilization as a high performance, environmental friendly and sustainable alternative to Portland cement India being the largest coal fly-ash producer in the world produces abundant by- product from thermal power plant known as coal fuel ash. E-waste is the problem with which every country is dealing right now. Because there is no method for the disposal of e-waste and with the growth in the consumption of electronic goods this problem is getting bigger and bigger. The most effective way of the disposal of e-waste is through landfill and this method require large land mass which is very difficult to find in these days. So this is a very good concept of using e-waste as an ingredient in concrete by partial replacement of aggregate. We cannot replace it completely as aggregate provides some key properties to concrete like strength, durability and workability. Using e-waste as building material seems right when we look at the amount of aggregate required for making concrete and if we are able to reduce that amount it will be very beneficiary as it reduces the load from the natural resources. In our research work we have partially replaced the aggregate with e-waste. We have casted concrete cubes with 4%, 8%, and 12% and 16% e-waste and compare the compressive strength of concrete with conventional concrete cubes of G30 grade. In our results we have found out that compressive strength of cubes starts increasing when we add e-waste, but after a point it starts decreasing. At the inclusion of 8% e-waste the compressive strength of concrete is 47.25N/mm2 and thereafter it starts decreasing. At the replacement of 12.5% aggregate with e-waste the compressive strength of concrete is 38.50N/mm2.

 Abstract

Copy-move is one type of attack to falsify digital images where the perpetrators copy several regions of the image and then place it on different parts of the same image to cover the part of the image that exists in the area. Therefore, a method is needed to detect copy-move attacks to find out the level the authenticity of a digital image. Image data is often deliberately carried out processes such as the addition of noise and blurring so that copy-move attacks are more difficult to recognize, so that the input image preprocessing stage is a filtering process to eliminate noise in the input image. Stages of detection of copy-move attacks can be shortened by not doing the preprocessing stage but using reliable methods for interference such as noise and blur. Therefore, reliable copy-move attack detection methods are needed for various input image variations so there is no need for preprocessing stages on input images. In this a method created from the modification of two methods of copy-move attack detection, an effective duplication detection method, is used on disturbing images and effective detection methods that are used on images that have disturbances such as noise and blur. Modification of the method is considered effective because of the tolerance between the features of the two methods used. When the input image is distraction-free, the duplication detection feature will become dominant, while the input image has disturbances such as noise and blur, the robust detection feature will become dominant.

Cloud computing is the on-demand availability of computing system resources, especially data storage and computing power, without direct active management by the user. Security is deemed to be the crucial aspect due to significance of the information stored in the cloud. So, the data management and the security should be reliable. The paper proposes a way to store information securely in the cloud, by splitting data into several chunks and store it on cloud in a manner that preserves data confidentiality, integrity and ensures availability. When the user uploads a file to the server, the file splits into four different server instances in encrypted form. The encryption is done by using Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) algorithm and stores the files in the cloud. The four encrypted files in the server instances combine into a single encrypted file and by using proxy re-encryption technique the file re-encrypted by using a key. While downloading the file, the service asks for a key which was sent to the user�s mail id by using Message Digest (MD5) algorithm. By using Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) algorithm, the file is converted into single decrypted file and downloaded by the user. This approach ensures the security and privacy of client sensitive information by storing data across single cloud, using AES algorithm, MD5 algorithm and proxy re-encryption techniques.

Calcium plays a key role in the treatment and prevention of bone demineralization. A widely used calcium enrichment source is purified CaCO3 with a high calcium content (about40%). Chicken eggshell powder, with a calcium content of about 38%, is a promising but little known source of calcium for human nutrition. The use of chicken eggshell powder might be beneficial, it could increase bone density and reduce pain in patients with osteoporosis. Eggshell calcium is probably the best natural source of calcium and it is about 90% absorbable. With the above context, the present study was undertaken, to analyse the Nutritive value of White eggshell powder and Brown eggshell powder and to formulate the Cookies with the incorporation of Egg shell powder. On basis of Physical characteristics, the eggs were selected for study, and their Nutrient content were assessed. The white and brown egg shell powder were incorporated into cookies and the value added products were formulated. Sensory quality is a combination of different senses of perception coming into play in choosing and eating a food. Hence, the Cookies prepared by incorporating both eggshell powder were evaluated for their sensory characteristics. The eggshell incorporated cookies were prepared and demonstrated among the different age groups viz., adolescents, adults, old age. This popularization among different communities created awareness about the nutritive value of both brown eggshell and white eggshell. The study revealed 8g of white eggshell powder was incorporated with 117g Maida for preparing Cookies was highly acceptable by semi trained panel members.

Abstract: Work-life balance is a concept that includes the correct definition of priorities between "work" (career and ambition) and "lifestyle" (health, pleasure, leisure, family and spiritual development/meditation). This study gives information on the balance between the work and personal life of police employees and the impact of the demographic profile on it. The objectives of the study are to investigate the relationship of demographic variables to the work-life balance of selected police personnel from the Odisha police department. The demographic variables considered in the study are age, gender and marital status. For this study, a sample size of 150 is taken using a stratified random sampling method. The one- way ANOVA is used for tabulation and hypothesis tests. The research study found that age, gender and marital status demographic factors have a significant relationship with the work-life balance of police personnel in Odisha state. The results of the study are essential because police personnel may not spend enough time with their family and negatively impact individual performance.
