 Abstract

Big Data is a term used to identify the datasets that cannot be managed due to their large size and complexity, with the current methodologies or data mining software tools. Big Data mining is the ability of extracting useful information from the large datasets or streams of data, that due to its volume, variability, and velocity, it was not possible before to do it. The Big Data challenge is becoming one of the most important opportunities for the next few years. In this review paper, a broad overview of the topic, its current status, its characteristics through HACE Theorem, Big Data generation and acquisition and Big Data challenges are summarised. A brief overview of the technologies of Big Data Analytics such as Hadoop and MapReduce is also presented.

 Abstract

Today a huge amount of energy is consumed in air conditioning and cooling units. These units use compression as their basic functionality. Compressor compresses cooling liquid thus providing cool air at the cost of huge amount of electricity. It seems the use of air conditioning is increasing pollution in the environment by releasing poisonous gases into the environment. Therefore there is a great need for developing a system which is eco friendly and have lower power requirement also reducing carbon foot print. Eco-Cooling provides a new way of cooling at optimum cost which is both eco-friendly as well as economic using peltier plates which consumes less energy and cools the surrounding space.

 Abstract

In Kumaun Himalaya, the temperate, evergreen blue pine forest (Pinus wallichiana L.) provides congenial environment for the growth and luxuriance of mosses and liverworts. Therefore, the present study was undertaken to study the bryodiversity between and within 80 P. wallichiana trees in Nainital, Kumaun Himalaya. In the present investigation, forty bryophyte species distributed in 23 families were recorded which were morphologically grouped into leafy liverworts (12.5%), acrocarpic mosses (25%) and pleurocarpic mosses (62.5%). The reported bryophytes showed five growth forms; tuft (23), mats (11), turf (3), pendants (2) and weft (1). The study revealed that 7 species (Bryosedgwickia aurea (Schwagr.) M. Fleisch., Cryptoleptodon flexuosus (Harv.) Ren. & Card., Ditrichum heteromallum (Hedw.) Britt., Frullania muscicola Stephani, F. dilatata subsp. subdilatata (C. Massal.) S. Hatt., F. retusa Mitt. and Lindbergia koelzii R.S. Williams) were strictly epiphytic, while the remaining species were either terrestrial and/or epilithic. The bryophyte species recorded on P. wallichiana showed maximum similarity (30-50%) with the species found on Quercus spp. of the study area. Contrary to this, minimum similarity was found between P. wallichiana and Erythrina arborescens (5%). These variations in bryodiversity may be attributed to the similarities and differences in altitude, aspect and the microclimatic nature and texture of the stems of the phorophytes.

 Abstract

This paper brings an idea for dual slope differential relay parameters for the various faulty conditions on the system. Differential protection of transformer is a unit type protection scheme. The protection scheme should only operate for the internal fault, and must remain stable for the external fault and during magnetizing inrush current due to energization of the transformer under no load condition and also due to external fault removal. Fast Fourier Transform technique is used to provide the operating quantity for the dual slope differential relay. A standard power system model is simulated using PSCAD/EMTDC software and is run for various internal fault and no fault conditions. The differential current obtained from the various cases is used for further analysis to distinguish internal fault from no fault conditions.

 Abstract

Isoperimetric literally means having equal perimeters, used especially of geometrical figures having a constant scale, used of a line on a map. In mathematics the Isoperimetric Inequality is a geometric inequality involving the surface area of a set and its volume. In this paper we have made a brief study on Isoperimetric Inequality in which we have included history, proof, and application of Isoperimetric Inequality. In the study we have also made a specification on why we consider circle with a given perimeter encloses the greatest area among all planar region.

 Abstract

In this paper, the effective and efficient system of water quality monitoring (WQM) are critical implementation for the issue of polluted water globally, with increasing in the development of Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) technology in the Internet of Things (IoT) environment, real time water quality monitoring is remotely monitored by means of real-time data acquisition, transmission and processing. This paper presents a reconfigurable smart sensor interface device for water quality monitoring system in an IoT environment. The smart WQM system consists of Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) design board, sensors, Zigbee based wireless communication module and personal computer (PC). The FPGA board is the core component of the proposed system and it is programmed in very high speed integrated circuit hardware description language (VHDL) and C programming language using Quartus II software and Qsys tool. The proposed WQM system collects the five parameters of water data such as water pH, water level, turbidity, carbon dioxide (CO2) on the surface of water and water temperature in parallel and in real time basis with high speed from multiple different sensor nodes.
