<p>The paper is about how the application is maintained and monitored using Azure CI pipeline. Maintaining and monitoring the quality of the software plays an important role in company’s growth and performance. This is achieved using DevOps. Few years back agile methodology was playing a major role in the industry, software were deployed in monthly, quarterly or annual basis, which is time consuming. However, now industries are moving towards DevOps methodology where in the software deployed multiple times a day. This methodology provides the organization to constantly and reliably add new features and automatically deploy them across various platforms or environment in order to gain high performance and quality assurance products. Continuous integration and Continuous delivery/ Continuous deployment are the pillars of DevOps. Continuous integration, Continuous delivery and Continuous deployment are the continuous software development practices of industry. By automating the build, test and deployment of software, CI/CD bridges the space between development and operation teams. This paper also concentrates on how the Test Driven Development features of .Net technologies supports the quality maintenance and monitoring of the application.</p>

The classical planar Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistors (MOSFET) is fabricated by oxidation of a semiconductor namely Silicon. In this generation, an advanced technique called 3D system architecture FETs, are introduced for high performance and low power quality of devices. Based on the limitations of Short Channel Effect (SCE), Silicon (Si) FET cannot be scaled under 10nm. Hence various performing measures like methods, principles, and geometrics are done to upscale the semiconductor. CMOS using alternate channel materials like GE and III-Vs on substrates is a highly anticipated technique for developing nanowire structures. By considering these issues, in this paper, we developed a simulation model that provides accurate results basing on Gate layout and multi-gate NW FET's so that the scaling can be increased few nanometers long and performance limits gradually increases. The model developed is SILVACO that tests the action of FET with different gate oxide materials.

The conditions for high performance have changed considerably over the last few years. Athletes must spend more time training and competing, devote a lot of time to mental, physical and nutritional professionals and continue to respond to some constraints such as studying, spending time with their families, friends and quality of life. In this context and based on the work of Rosa, we wonder about the capacity of elite athletes to combine all these constraints, namely to manage the acceleration in their pace of life, in order to be able to achieve always more and better in the same time unit. To address this issue, we interviewed 42 French high-level athletes who train at the National Institute of Sport, Expertise and Performance (INSEP). Results show that to suit their goals, athletes implement arrangement and adjustment strategies aimed at making the time they have wholly useful and efficient. This time constraint puts athletes in a perpetual state of tension, on the verge of a good or poor life. The paper shows how the question of time, and particularly the acceleration of pace of life, is vital for modern sporting performance.

Many large-scale online applications enable thousands of users to access their services simultaneously. However, the overall service quality of an online application usually degrades when the number of users increases because, traditionally, centralized server architecture does not scale well. In order to provide better Quality of Service (QoS), service architecture such as Grid computing can be used. This type of architecture offers service scalability by utilizing heterogeneous hardware resources. In this thesis, a novel design of Grid computing middleware, Massively Multi-user Online Platform (MMOP), which integrates the Peer-to-Peer (P2P) structured overlays, is proposed. The objectives of this proposed design are to offer scalability and system design flexibility, simplify development processes of distributed applications, and improve QoS by following specified policy rules. A Massively Multiplayer Online Game (MMOG) has been created to validate the functionality and performance of MMOP. The simulation results have demonstrated that MMOP is a high performance and scalable servicing and computing middleware.

Membrane-based technology has proved its practicality in gas separation through its performance. Various type of membranes has been explored, showing that each type of them have their own advantages and disadvantages. Polymeric membranes have been widely used to separate O2/N2, however, its drawbacks lead to the development of carbon molecular sieve membrane. Carbon molecular sieve membranes have demonstrated excellent separation performance for almost similar kinetic diameter molecules such as O2/N2. Many polymer precursors can be used to produce carbon molecular sieve membrane through carbonization process or also known as heat treatment. This paper discusses the variety of precursors and carbonization parameters to produce high quality and performance of carbon molecular sieve membranes.  This paper covers the evaluation in advancement and status of high-performance carbon membrane implemented for separating gas, comprising the variety of precursor materials and the fabrication process that involve many different parameters, also analysis of carbon membranes properties in separating various type of gas having high demand in the industries. The issues regarding the current challenges in developing carbon membrane and approaches with the purpose of solving and improving the performance and applications of carbon membrane are included in this paper. Also, the advantages of the carbon membrane compared to other types of membranes are highlighted. Observation and understanding the variables affecting the quality of membrane encourage the optimization of conditions and techniques in producing high-performance membrane.

Continuous integration and Continuous Deployment (CICD) is a trending practice in agile software development. Using Continuous Integration helps the developers to find the bugs before it goes to the production by running unit tests, smoke tests etc. Deploying the components of the application in Production using Continuous Deployment, using this way, the new release of the application reaches the client faster. Continuous Security makes sure that the application is less prone to vulnerabilities by doing static scans on code and dynamic scans on the deployed releases. The goal of this study is to identify the benefits of adapting the Continuous Integration - Continuous Deployment in Application Software. The Pipeline involves Implementation of CI – CS - CD on a web application ClubSoc which is a Club Management Application and using unsupervised machine learning algorithms to detect anomalies in the CI-CS-CD process. The Continuous Integration is implemented using Jenkins CI Tool, Continuous Security is implemented using Veracode Tool and Continuous Deployment is done using Docker and Jenkins. The results have shown by adapting this methodology, the author is able to improve the quality of the code, finding vulnerabilities using static scans, portability and saving time by automation in deployment of applications using Docker and Jenkins. Applying machine learning helps in predicting the defects, failures and trends in the Continuous Integration Pipeline, whereas it can help in predicting the business impact in Continuous Delivery. Unsupervised learning algorithms such as K-means Clustering, Symbolic Aggregate Approximation (SAX) and Markov are used for Quality and Performance Regression analysis in the CICD Model. Using the CICD model, the developers can fix the bugs pre-release and this will impact the company as a whole by raising the profit and attracting more customers. The Updated Application reaches the client faster using Continuous Deployment. By Analyzing the failure trends using Unsupervised machine learning, the developers might be able to predict where the next error is likely to happen and prevent it in the pre-build stage

Purpose: The main purpose of this study was to determine the effect of enhanced quality of bank products and services on the performance of commercial banks in Makueni County. Methodology: This study adopted a descriptive research design. The target population was all the 219 employees from the commercial bank branches in Makueni County from which 130 study participants were sampled; 65 bank managers and 65 assistant managers. A questionnaire was designed, piloted and used to collect data from the study participants. All necessary ethical issues were considered during and after data collection process. Statistical Package for Social Scientists Version 21 was used in data analysis to generate both descriptive and inferential statistics. Findings: There was a positive relationship between the quality of services and products and performance of commercial banks in Makueni County. The regression results also revealed that quality of products and services had a significant influence on the performance of commercial banks at p = 0.015.  Unique contributions to theory, practice and policy: The quality of bank services and products is a major determinant of the performance of commercial banks in the area of study. The findings were similar to those of another study carried out by Odeny (2016).  Since contingency theory argues that there is no single best approach in the management of institutions, the study recommends that continuous research is necessary in commercial banks to establish areas of service and product improvement for their continued high performance.

ABSTRACTGroup II-VI narrow band gap compounds CdTe ZnCdTe and CdSeTe are known as the most suitable semiconductor materials for the room temperature gamma- and X-ray radiation detectors. In this work we investigated electronic properties of a quaternary compound ZnCdSeTe. Cl Cu Pr Er and oxygen doped host materials were synthesized from the grinded mixture of 6N purity ZnTe CdTe and CdSe by the help of CdCl2 flux. Precautions were applied to achieve an uniform doping and high quality of the crystal surfaces. Residue phases after the thermal treatments were removed by the help of a vacuum annealing. It was found that Zn increases a substitutional solubility of dopants in ZnCdSeTe and thus promotes optoelectronic properties of the ZnCdSeTe alloy. Cl substitutes Te whereas Cu and rare earth elements substitute Zn in ZnCdSeTe. Fabricated polycrystalline samples showed a high performance from NIR via VIS and UV to X-ray band. High stability good linearity and performance of samples was measured under X-ray excitation of Cu Kα 1.54056 Å at 40 kV.
