8 Prevention from flooding attack in AODV over mobile adhoc networks using NS2
Vandana Batra, Deepak Bagga

Abstract-A wireless local-area network (LAN) uses radio waves to connect devices such as laptops to the internet and to your business network and its applications. An Adhoc network is a collection of mobile nodes and wireless communication network is used to connect these mobile nodes. This type of network is known as MOBILE ADHOC NETWORK (MANET). Different from normal networks, MANET is easy to be attacked. The attacking to the protocol can paralyze the network, so the security of routing protocol is an important part of the Ad Hoc networks security. Flooding is a type of Denial of Service (DoS) attack in MANET. Intentional flooding may lead to disturbances in the networking operation. This kind of attack consumes battery power, storage space and bandwidth. Flooding the excessive number of packets may degrade the performance of the network. In this dissertation we consider flooding attack. As the hello packets are continuously flooded by the malicious node, the neighbor node is not able to process other packets. The functioning of the legitimate node is diverted and destroys the networking operation. In this we use a cryptographic approach to prevent the flooding attack in mobile adhoc network. Here we consider end-to-end delay and packet received as matrices. We simulate the environment in NS2 and results are shown through XGraphs.

9 Energy Modeling and Optimization of Application Specific Wireless Sensor Networks using Sleep Scheduling
Mohammed Moyed Ahmed, D. Sreenivasa Rao

Abstract-Wireless sensor networks particularly related to monitoring disaster applications and time critical applications, data gathering in a timely and reliable fashion has been a key concern, apart from proper energy management. Nodes waste considerable amounts of energy as they keep their radios on for large time intervals while listening to an idle channel. Due to the importance of energy consumption of idle listening, energy efficient MACs should make nodes sleep for long periods of time instead of enabling them to be permanently active. An effort has been made to achieve energy optimization by using 802.15.4 coordinator in Beacon mode by applying proper seep scheduling.

Srinath KS, Ankit Kumar, Gaurav Kumar, Akshay Nair, Himalaya

Abstract─ Interest in web services will continually increase from start of use. To exchange information among the clients is the main goal of web service. It is a functionality that provided as a response to request which provides an internal architecture over a network. It has an interface described in a form of XML (WSDL). SOAP protocol governs the format of the web service request and response, typically conveyed using HTTP (Hyper Text Transfer Protocol) with an XML (Extensible Markup Language) serialization in conjunction with other Web-related standards. In this paper, the SOA model is secured using cryptographic techniques and integrating enhanced TPA, XML signer/verifier model. WSDL (web service description language), SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol) documents are encrypted and decrypted using AES technique. TPA (trusted third party authentication) is an entity which authenticates interacting parties using X509 certificate and public key. To avoid the integrity in the network the XML document is signed and verified using XML signature specified by W3C (World Wide Web Consortium).

11 Enhancement of Energy Efficiency and Data Security for ECG Transmission in Body Area Sensor Networks
Sugantha Baalan K S, Nagarajan C

Abstract -Electrocardiographic (ECG) information reveals the essential heart conditions for heart illness diagnosing. The detailed condition of a cardiac patient can be better understood from his ECG. So there is a need to design low cost, energy efficient, easy to use wireless ECG diagnosing system. Body area sensor network (BASN) is a technology used for wireless sensing and transmission of ECG signals. But there are two major challenges in wireless transmission of signals. They are more energy consumption and less data security. The proposed system can improve the performance of wireless ECG transmission by using data compression techniques such as Set Partitioning In Hierarchical Trees (SPIHT) or COmbined XOr and Huffman coding (COXOH) and some encryption techniques. Compression techniques can compress the signal which reduces the energy consumption in wireless transmission. SPIHT uses the technique of set partitioning sorting and it provides good compression on the signals with the compression ratio of 8:1. COXOH is the combination of two operations XOR and Huffman Algorithm. XOR operation will reduce the data to 50% followed by Huffman compression which will further compress the data. The average compression ratio is 10:1. Run Length Encoding (RLE) can be used at the end of the COXOH to further compress the data. The proposed selective encryption mechanism provides a simple and effective security solution, where only the selected portion of compressed data is encrypted and the complete encryption mechanism also provides good security, where all the compressed data are encrypted.

19 Experimental Investigation of SS 410 Using Nd Yag Laser Cutting
M.D.Vijayakumar, M. Janaki Manohar, C.Silambarasan

Abstract-Although metal cutting operations traditionally employ mechanical or manual processes, laser cutting can be a viable, effective, and cost-efficient option for metal fabrication. Laser equipment is distinct from other cutting machines in both design and application. For example, laser cutters do not make direct contact with material, rely on high-energy power sources, have tighter cutting tolerances, and are generally automated to maximize precision. A laser device fires a concentrated stream of photons onto a precise area of the work piece in order to trim excess material and shape the work piece into a specific design. These machines are highly effective in cutting various grades of steel, such as stainless and carbon steel. However, lasers are less efficient on light-reflective or heat-conductive metals, like aluminum or copper, and require specific modifications to shape these materials. The material being cut often dictates the type of laser used in fabrication, making it important to match equipment specifications with forming stock. This project deals with the cutting parameter of Nd-yag laser cutting of high carbon steels. Carbon steels are found to be cut satisfactorily by a pulsed Nd-yag laser at the optimum process parameter ranges. Predictive models have been developed based on important process parameters, viz. cutting speed, and gas pressure. The responses considered are the heat-affected zone (HAZ) and the taper of the cut surface. The optimization of process parameters has to be one using Anova or Multiple Regression Analysis. The effect of the process parameters on the output responses is also investigated through mechanical properties as well as microstructure as well as heat distribution also investigated through ANSYS.

M.P.Tamizhmani, A.Karthikeyan

Abstract- In this paper aircraft drag is considerably reduced by a design and change in deflection of wing even with the increase in speed of aircraft. Aircraft drag depends on the aspect ratio of the wing, thus by reducing the surface area and twisting the wing about its vertical axis (pivoted axis) to a particular angle without compromising the lift force generated, the drag force was considerably reduced. As a result a speed of 0.3 mach was raised to 1.2 mach experimentally non-symmetrical wing of various length nearer to 1m is designed, analyzed and deflected from its pivoted section, drag produced around the wing is drastically reduced. Drag produced at different angle is compared with the drag produced at 00 deflections and by reducing the drag produced; the speed of the aircraft is increased. At take-off the wing is said to be about 00 angles and deflected at different angles after attaining a particular altitude from ground level thus mainly dealing with the reduction of drag with a nonsymmetrical wing.

23 Performance Improvement of Pseudo Boost PFC Converter with Less Number of Components
A.Praveena , R.Thangadurai

Abstract-Power supplies with active power factor correction (PFC) techniques are becoming necessary for many types of electronic equipment. Most of the PFC rectifiers utilize a boost/buck–boost topology converter at their front end due to its high power factor (PF) capability. However, a conventional boost PFC scheme has lower efficiency due to significant losses in the diode bridge. In this project, a new bridgeless single-phase ac–dc converter with a natural power factor correction (PFC) is proposed. Compared with existing bridgeless topologies, the proposed topology has the advantages of less component counts. The absence of an input diode bridge rectifier and the presence of only one diode in the current path during each stage of the switching cycle result in higher power density and less conduction losses. The proposed topology is designed to work in resonant mode to achieve an automatic PFC close to unity. The resonant mode operation gives additional advantages such as zero-current Ton in the active power devices, zero-current Toff in the output diode and reduces the complexity of the control circuitry. Thus the proposed circuit is simulated both open loop and closed loop system. The simulation results are compared with theoretical value.

Abstract—The experiment was conducted during the summer season in 2009 in Alamata, Tigray, Ethiopia. The purpose of the experiment was to evaluate certain forage varieties of grass and legume species for outcompeting the weed P. hysterophorus L. in pasture/grazing lands in the field. A split plot design was used with treatments Mowing/Burning as main plot and six forage varieties vis., Cenchrus ciliaris. Clitoria ternate, Panicum coloratum, Sorghum Sudanese, Stylosanthes hamata, Vicia dasycarpa, and Control as sub plots. Results indicate that the weed species viz., Cynodon dactylon, Digitaria abyssinica, Parthenium hysterophorus and Alternathera pungens were the most dominant plants recorded in the over sown forage crops followed by Cenchrus ciliaris, Clitoria ternate, Panicum coloratum, Sorghum Sudanese, Stylosanthes hamata and Vicia dasycarpa. The obnoxious weed P. hyterophorus was the most dense (50 plants/m2) followed by Digitaria ternata (18plants/m2) in the forage variety of Cenchrus at mowing. Both weed species had 100% occurrence and an abundance of 53.2 and 19.1%, respectively. In the over sown Panicum and Sorghum forage species, although they vigorously grown, could not out compete the weed Parthenium where it showed relatively highest abundance and frequency of occurrence. In the burning main plot over sown treatment, Cenchrus, D. ternata, A. hybridus and P. hysterophorus recorded 27, 24, and 11 plants/m2 density and 40.9, 36.4 and 16.7% abundance, respectively. The forage plant Panicum was effectively suppressed the invasive weed parthenium which recorded the least, 4 plants/m2. The Fodder dry weight results also showed significant (P<0.05) differences when averaged over main plot treatments viz., the mean dry weight of Cenchrus ciliaris, Panicum coloratum and Sorghum sudanese were significantly (P<0.05) higher than the mean dry weight of Vicia dasycorpa, Clitoria ternate and Stylosanthes hamata all of which had the same mean dry weights. A linear correlation analysis have shown that forage stand count has negatively and highly significantly correlated (r = -0.773) with parthenium stand count.

Abstract—Diabetic retinopathy is one of the leading disabling chronic diseases, and one of the leading causes of preventable blindness in the world [1]. It is an ocular disease and progressive by nature. It is characterized by many pathologies, namely microaneurysms, hard exudates, soft exudates, hemorrhages, etc., among them presence of exudates is the prominent sign of nonproliferative DR [2]. Both hard and soft exudates play a vital role in grading DR into different stages. Hence classification of hard and soft exudates using k-means clustering plays a vital role [3]. But Digital Fundus Images has multiple contrast and illumination problems which makes enhancement a necessity. Consequently, DFI must be enhanced to allow for better visualization in order to facilitate ophthalmologists to carry out their diagnosis [4].

33 Energy efficient scheduling in Wireless Sensor Networks
Sunita Rani, Sanjana Kalyan

Abstract—It is an emerging technology that shows various applications both for public and military purpose. In order to operate these applications successfully, it is necessary to maintain the transmission of data. Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) consist of small nodes with sensing, computation, and wireless communications capabilities. Many routing, power management, and data dissemination protocols have been specifically designed for WSNs where energy awareness is an essential design issue. In this paper, we present an energy efficient scheduling of nodes in wireless sensor networks. Scheduling is done among the nearby nodes because it's well known that the nodes lying in the vicinity of each other i.e. the nearby nodes whose inter distance is too much small will sense the same data from the field the nodes are deployed in. So scheduling is done among the nearby nodes so as to increase the lifetime of network by saving the energy used in transmitting the redundant data from the nearby nodes.

Abstract—Nowadays, a larger percentage of mixed-signal applications require energy limited system solutions. Analog to Digital Converters (ADCs) are critical component in most of such systems, hence the stringent requirements on energy consumption requests the ADC design to be low power. Among various ADC architectures, we chose to implement a Successive Approximation Register (SAR) ADC that is one of the best suited for low power. We target a resolution of 8-bit and a power consumption of few mille Watts. The SAR ADC is implemented in 180nm CMOS technology with a power supply of 2.85V which produce the power consumption of 3.1083 milli watts, Area covered is 341μsq.m with a resolution of 0.02.The ADC designed is carried out by designing each building block of the circuit separately and then assembling them together to get the required ADC. A comparison between different DAC topologies led us to choose a R-2R Ladder circuit topology for the D/A converter to have less power consumption, Reduce Area, Low cost and Resolution. Design has been carried out in Tanner EDA tools. Simulation results are verified using S-edit and T-edit.

38 Study of Tribological characteristics of NiTiFe Shape Memory Alloys for varying composition of Fe
Ramesh Gowda N R, Yellappa M, Samal SureshKumar, Anand Manchalakar, Uday C Y, Santhosh N

Abstract—Shape memory alloys are those groups of alloys which have a characteristic phenomenon of exhibiting the property of remembering its shape upon deformation and returning to its original shape when heated. These materials change their properties, for example vibration resonance frequency or modulus in response to a temperature variation. When heated by direct electrical current above the transformation temperature, the pre-deformed shape memory alloy (SMA) try to recover their shape and since they are restrained, a stress is created. The stress thus created can be relieved by aging of the samples at different temperature ranges. Ni Ti Shape memory alloys have a unique behavior of exhibiting maximum super elasticity as compared to other shape memory alloys. However there are certain elements such as Fe, Cu, Al, and Mo which are added to the NiTi as ternary additions to enhance the transformational behavior of these alloys. Alloying Fe is found to have major implications on the shape memory effect of Ni – Ti (Nitinol) based shape memory alloys. The transformational behavior of these shape memory alloys are unique and found to have an impact on biomedical and structural applications. In our work, tribological characteristics of NiTiFe were effectively studied for varying compositions and it was found that hardness increases with the ternary addition of Fe from 3% to 9% and wear drastically reduces as a result of increase in hardness. This is attributed to the fact that the increase in addition of Fe causes precipitation hardening which will ultimately result in improved tribological characteristics. Also in our present work, the samples are subjected to heat treatment and subsequent aging, which has resulted in betterment of wear characteristics, that are compared with the as cast samples.

40 Thermal Analysis of Sandwich Busbar System
Praveen Poddar, K.S. Shashishekar

Abstract—A busbar is a strip or bar of copper, aluminium or any that conducts electricity within a switch board, distribution board, substation, battery bank or other electrical system. Its main purpose is to conduct electricity, not just to function as a structural member. Busbars improves systematic capacitance, lower inductance and impedance. Commercially, the present practice is to use different busbars for different current ratings. The main reason for this is the variation in temperature and the entire busbar system has to be replaced depending on the required current rating. This is a time consuming and expensive practice. To prevent the above difficulties in the present work a busbar with fins, which can be used for varying current ratings, is proposed. The proposal is done by thermal analysis of the busbar and the theoretical and simulation results are compared. There is the analysis is carried out by simulation using Star CCM+. The temperature distribution with and without fins are evaluated and number of fin is fixed for the required heat dissipation of the busbar.

Abstract—With the immense driving force from cost efficiency and fuel economy, the application of Advanced High Strength Steels and other lightweight materials has been dramatically increased in recent years. An increase of the flow strength has been achieved with a trade-off decrease in ductility. The finite element simulation gives an accurate prediction of HER, as well as the load displacement response and specimen deflection distribution in the hole expansion tests on un-cracked material. The correlation between simulation and tests on central hole specimen also turns out to be very good. The paper also presents a very interesting insight of the initiation and propagation of cracks from the hole edge during a hole expansion test by numerical simulation in comparison with FE testing observations.

A.Sathish, T.Ravichandra Babu

Abstract—First, we perform a co-ordinate transformation to identify those flipflops that can be merged and their legal regions. Besides, we show how to build a combination table to enumerate possible combinations of flip-flops provided by a library. Finally, we use a hierarchical way to merge flip-flops. Besides power reduction, the objective of minimizing the total wirelength is also considered. The time complexity of our algorithm is _(n1.12) less than the empirical complexity of _(n2). According to the experimental results, our algorithm significantly reduces clock power by 30–40% and the running time is very short. In the largest test case, which contains 1 700 000 flip-flops, our algorithm only takes about 5 min to replace flip-flops and the power reduction can achieve 25%.

51 Dynamic Heterogeneity-Aware Resource Provisioning in the Cloud
P. Dayakar, Priyanka Arvapally

Abstract—Data centres consume great quantities of energy in terms of power distribution and cooling. Dynamic capability provisioning may be a promising approach for decreasing energy consumption by dynamically fixing the quantity of active machines to match resource demands. However, despite wide studies of the matter, current solutions haven't totally thoughtabout the heterogeneousness of each employment and machine hardware found in production environments. Specifically, production information centres of 10 comprise heterogeneous machines with completely different capacities and energy consumption characteristics. Meanwhile, the assembly cloud workload generally carries with it numerous applications with completely different priorities, performance and resource needs. Failure to contemplate the heterogeneousness of each machines and workloads can result in each sub-optimal energysavings and long programming delays, thanks to incompatibility between employment needs and therefore the resources offered by the provisioned machines. To handle this limitation, we tend to gift Harmony, a Heterogeneity-Aware dynamic capability provisioning theme for cloud information centres. Specifically, we tend to 1st use the K-means agglomeration formula to divide employment into distinct task categories with similar characteristics in terms of resource and performance needs. Then we tend to gift a method that dynamically adjusting the quantity of machines to attenuate total energy consumption and programming delay. Simulations victimisation traces from a Google’s figure cluster demonstrate Harmony will cut back energy by twenty eight p.c compared to heterogeneity-oblivious solutions.

52 Implementation of computing two pattern test cubes for path delay faults
A.Deepa, T.Ravichandra Babu

Abstract—Considering full-scan circuits, incompletelyspecified tests, or test cubes, are used for test data compression. When considering path delay faults, certain specified input values in a test cube are needed only for determining the lengths of the paths associated with detected faults. Path delay faults, and therefore, small delay defects, would still be detected if such values are unspecified. The goal of this paper is to explore the possibility of increasing the number of unspecified input values in a test set for path delay faults by un specifying such values in order to make the test set more amenable to test data compression.

Radha Kumari.B, Vinay Kumar

Abstract—This paper presents a CMOS one bit full adder circuit diagram into area-efficient, high-performance layouts in the style of one-dimensional transistor arrays. Using efficient search techniques and accurate evaluation methodologies, the huge solution space that is typical to such problems is traversed extremely swift, yielding designs of hand-layout quality. In addition to generating circuits, that meet pre-specified layout constraints in the context of a fixed target image, on-the-fly optimizations are performed to meet secondary optimization criteria. The core contribution is a detailed-routing based on a Boolean formulation. The routing uses a novel encoding scheme and graph theory to support floating terminals, efficient heuristics to reduce the computational cost, and minimization of the number of unconnected pins in case the cell is un routable. Using Cadence Virtuoso tool 180nm, the adder is simulated, synthesized and the layout designed.

Sonali B. Gosavi, Shyamrao.V.Gumaste

Abstract—Geographic search engines provide an interface mechanism to the Web that allows users to constrain and order search results in an efficient user understandable manner, by focusing a query on a particular geographic region. Geographic search technology has recently received significant amount of interest, but there has been only a limited amount of work. Authors perform massive extraction of geographic features from crawled data in databases, which are then mapped to coordinates and aggregated across link and site structure. This assigns to each web page a set of relevant locations as point of interest (POI’s), called the geographic footprint of the page. The resulting footprint data which is collected in term of POI’s, is then integrated into a query processor on a cluster-based architecture. Authors discuss the various techniques, both new and existing, that is used for recognizing, matching, mapping, and aggregating geographic features to process queries, and describes how to integrate geographic query processing into a standard efficient search architecture and interface.

Shanti Bhushan, S. R. Ganorkar

Abstract—In the past decade a lot of research has been done on vision based real-time advanced driver safety system (ADAS). Many OEM car manufacturing companies have stressed their research on ADAS so as to increase the vehicle and driver safety. This work is aimed at developing an algorithm for on road lane departure warning (LDW) system. LDW can be successfully used for dropping the on road accidents which happened due to driver drowsiness or ignorance. In this report a survey has been done for the study and comparison of available algorithm for LDWs. An image processing based algorithm has been developed which uses a single camera mounted on-board. The robustness of algorithm has been tested under various lightning conditions and in the presence of heavy shadowing cast by bridges, vehicles etc. The algorithm is implemented in two steps; first it finds the vanishing point on the road and then a careful selection of line segments have been done by using the information of vanishing point. A smart and robust heuristic feature based filter has been used to validate the detected lanes. Kalman tracker is then implemented in order to track the detected lane and handle the critical sections where the detection algorithm fails. The major challenge for any vision based system has always been to achieve high accuracy and precision along with low computational cost (required for real-time applications).

Treatment of dairy wastewaters using biological and physico-chemical methods having some drawbacks such as high energy requirement, poor nutrient removal, needs further treatment etc., among the physico-chemical methods; Coagulation-flocculation is used for removal of suspended and colloidal material from the dairy wastewater. Only few studies are reported in open literature for the coagulation of dairy wastewater. Present study shows an investigation for determining optimum conditions of coagulation flocculation process in simulated dairy wastewater treatment by using a series of jar test experiments. The effects of type and dose of coagulant, type and dose of coagulant aid and pH on the efficiency of coagulation-flocculation process were studied & optimized using Taguchi method. The effective parameters to find optimum conditions were each of COD, Total Dissolved Solids and Turbidity of wastewater or altogether. Sixteen experiments were required to study the effect of parameters on coagulation-flocculation process in Dairy wastewater treatment. Each of experiments was repeated 3 times to calculate signal/noise ratio (S/N). The optimum conditions that were obtained for the treatment of the wastewater were: 200 mg/l PACL as coagulant, 100 mg/l CaCO3 as coagulant aid, and pH 9 for COD removal; 800 mg/l PACL as coagulant, 300 mg/l CaCO3 as coagulant aid, and pH 9 for TDS removal; 800 mg/l PACL as coagulant, 300 mg/l Na2SiO3 as coagulant aid, and pH 9 for Turbidity removal. The optimum conditions found for Turbidity removal were selected as optimum conditions for the cases where the removal of aforementioned parameters, all together is treatment goal. In the optimum conditions for the removal of turbidity, 72.5% COD removal, 91.2% turbidity removal, 42.6% TDS were achieved. Also based on ANOVA results, coagulant type & pH in COD removal; pH, coagulant aid type & its dose in Turbidity removal; coagulant type and coagulant dose in TDS removal were found to be most effective factors in this study.
