Mobile communication systems employ an encoding-encryption model to ensure secure data transmission over the network. This model encodes the data and encrypts it before transmitting it to the receiver's end. A non-trivial...
C4 photosynthesis has evolved by repurposing enzymes found in C3 plants. Compared with the ancestral C3 state, accumulation of C4 cycle proteins is enhanced. We used de-etiolation of C4 Gynandropsis gynandra and C3 Arabidopsis...
One thing, certainly, can be said about David Bentley Hart’s book and it is this: that its author takes atheism very seriouslyor rather, the “New Atheism,” as it is called, a recent ideologico-cultural “movement” whose...
This article deals with the steady-state behavior of an MX/G/1 retrial queue with the Bernoulli vacation schedule and unreliable server, under linear retrial policy. Breakdowns can occur randomly at any instant while the server...
This article presents an evaluation of the use of peer and self-assessment as part of the learning process in a public speaking assessment coursework, with students from two departments taking part. Students were assessed by...
This study aims to determine procurement and project management critical factors to develop procurement strategy with stakeholders to eliminate Project Scope Creep (PSC) risks in the oil & gas (O&G) sector. Analytical Hierarchy...
This research aims to devise a method of encrypting medical images based on chaos map, Knight's travel map, affine transformation, and DNA cryptography to prevent attackers from accessing the data. The proposed DMIES...
Biosurfactant production by Rhodococcus erythropolis SB-1A was studied based on Atlas oil agar medium in a batch reactor. The strain was isolated from a water sample collected from Northern Atlantic Ocean. Several parameters...
The primary requirements of a heterogeneous wireless network topology, adaptive and smart resource allocation to users, protocols for routing and lifetime enhancement, access to the network with security and appropriate network...
Physical field trips have long been used in education, but virtual field trips are increasingly being used to enhance them. This article focuses on the use of mixed reality to enhance a physical field trip before, during, and...
Literature has mainly analyzed the technical attributes of voice for enterprise technical applications, such as voice signature and speech recognition. This paper aims at identifying voice and speech attributes that reflect...
This chapter is a reflection on practice that resulted in the incorporation of an active blended learning approach in courses which the author facilitates for transnational students. These courses were popular, received very...
The educational system has moved towards digitization and online learning in the past two decades. The institutions are focusing on delivering online courses to facilitate the students. Uttarakhand Open University offered online...
Performance of innovative sludge-blanket anaerobic membrane bioreactors (SB-AnMBRs) was evaluated at mesophilic (35oC for 400 days) followed by thermophilic (55oC for 330 days) temperatures for the treatment of the...
This study examined post-test performance and retention performance of students in mathematics when learned and problem-solving ability through educational video games and traditional lecture method. The study adopted a...
A key step in addressing the classification issue was the selection of genes for removing redundant and irrelevant genes. The proposed Type Combination Approach –Feature Selection(TCA-FS) model uses the efficient feature...
Shopper buying behaviour is essential for the retailers to segment the shoppers in accordance to their disruptive attitude and perception for better innovative strategies which may lead to higher profits. The major purpose of...
Transitive verbs in Totonac-Tepehua languages show apparent irregularities in agreement in verb forms where both subject and object are speech act participants (that is, 1 H 2 combinations) and one or both are plural. Data from...
In the research community, the estimation of the scholarly impact of an individual is based on either citation-based indicators or network centrality measures. The network-based centrality measures like degree, closeness...
This manuscript presents the design of a new approach of human skin color authentication. Skin color is one of the most popular soft biometric modalities. Since a soft biometric modality alone cannot reliably authenticate an...
Online learning is part of the future of K-12 education. However, few online K-12 instructors have been formally trained in online pedagogy. This chapter describes best practices in creating online courses for K-12 students....
This chapter begins with a brief discussion of the basic concepts related to the unconscious life of an organization, and then addresses specific aspects of knowledge, learning, and memory, developing a language and framework...
Rotavirus genotypes are species specific. However, interspecies transmission is reported to result in the emergence of new genotypes. A cross-sectional study of 242 households with 281 cattle, 418 goats, 438 pigs, and 258 humans...
There are several studies showing that a breakdown in the continuum of care occurs when a person crosses an international boundary for healthcare, such as migrants and medical tourists. This study attempted to measure the impact...
