Real Time Tracing and Alerting System for Vehicles and Children to Ensure Safety and Security Using Labview

The Absolute time monitoring, detecting and Alerting System for vehicles and children is required to trace and transmit the collected information at regular intervals to ensure safety and security of children. The illustration of the Realtime detecting and warning System consists of two units: Tracing Unit that traces the location information, transfers to the monitoring area, records the data in the database and takes the help of these data to locate the exact point of area of the vehicle with Google/other maps. The second unit is Alerting Unit that tracks the students using active Radio Frequency Identification Devices (RFID)which will be placed on student ID card. radio-wave trans-receiver transmits a common radio wave which is received by the RFID in the ID card. This radio-wave is modified by the RFID’s coil and resent to the receive RFID tags are also used for attendance which is updated directly to the database and displays the other student information.

A Design Study of Orthotic Shoe Based on Pain Pressure Measurement Using Algometer for Calcaneal Spur Patients

The pressure pain threshold (PPT) is a useful tool for evaluating mechanical sensitivity in individuals suffering from various musculoskeletal disorders. The aim of this study is to investigate PPT at the heel area in order to assist in the design of orthotic shoes for sufferers of heel pain due to a calcaneal spur. The size and location of the calcaneal spur was determined by x-ray images, with PPT data measured around the spur at five points by using algometer FDIX 25. The pain test experiment was conducted by pressing each point to obtain the pain minimum compressive pressure (PMCP) and its location. The information of shoe size, spur location and dimensions, and the PMCP location for each individual is used to obtain the exact point location for applying a softer material to the shoe in-sole, in order to reduce heel pain. The results are significant as it can be used by designers to design appropriate shoe in-soles for individuals suffering from heel pain.

Divide-and-Conquer Federated Learning Under Data Heterogeneity

Federated Learning allows training of data stored in distributed devices without the need for centralizing training-data, thereby maintaining data-privacy. Addressing the ability to handle data heterogeneity (non-identical and independent distribution or non-IID) is a key enabler for the wider deployment of Federated Learning. In this paper, we propose a novel Divide-andConquer training methodology that enables the use of the popular FedAvg aggregation algorithm by over-coming the acknowledged FedAvg limitations in non-IID environments. We propose a novel use of Cosine-distance based Weight Divergence metric to determine the exact point where a Deep Learning network can be divided into class-agnostic initial layers and class-specific deep layers for performing a Divide and Conquer training. We show that the methodology achieves trained-model accuracy at-par with (and in certain cases exceeding) the numbers achieved by state-of-the-art algorithms like FedProx, FedMA, etc. Also, we show that this methodology leads to compute and/or bandwidth optimizations under certain documented conditions.

The Advanced Multilevel Predictor-Corrector Quasi-Static Method for Pin-Resolved Neutron Kinetics Simulation

The Advanced Multilevel Predictor-Corrector Quasi-static Method (AML-PCQM) is proposed in this work. The four computational levels, including transport, Multi-Group (MG) Coarse Mesh Finite Difference (CMFD), One-Group (1G) CMFD, and Exact Point-Kinetics Equation (EPKE), are coupled with a new dynamic iteration strategy. In each coupling algorithm, the original Transient Fixed Source Problem (TFSP) is solved in the predictor process using coarse time step, and then the flux distribution is factorized to the functions of amplitude and shape in the next corrector process. Finally, multiple fine time steps are used to adjust the predicted solution. Two heterogeneous single assembly problems with the prompt control rod withdrawal event are used to verify the AML-PCQM scheme’s accuracy and efficiency. The numerical results obtained by different cases are compared and analyzed. The final results indicate that the AML-PCQM performs the remarkable advantages of efficiency and accuracy with the reference cases.

Konsep Perlindungan Nasab dalam Perspektif Hukum Islam

Benefit as the core of maqâshid al-syariah has an important role in the development of Islamic law. Because Islamic law was revealed with the aim of presenting the benefit of humans, both in this world and in the hereafter. One of the benefits that are protected is the protection of lineage. Nasab is human nature, because humans have the instinct to regenerate. On the other hand, humans have the nature of obedience to God. So that the two natures accumulate in lineage protection. Lineage protection is concerned with quantity on the one hand, and quality on the other. The exact point proportions of the two are seen from the bounded realm of reality. Lineage protection is not only about regeneration, but also includes all intermediaries (wasilah) that support it, both in terms of quantity and quality. The purpose of this study is to find out what things can damage the lineage, such as adultery, incest marriage, prostitution and so on.

The Use of Lasers in Dental Materials: A Review

Lasers have been well integrated in clinical dentistry for the last two decades, providing clinical alternatives in the management of both soft and hard tissues with an expanding use in the field of dental materials. One of their main advantages is that they can deliver very low to very high concentrated power at an exact point on any substrate by all possible means. The aim of this review is to thoroughly analyze the use of lasers in the processing of dental materials and to enlighten the new trends in laser technology focused on dental material management. New approaches for the elaboration of dental materials that require high energy levels and delicate processing, such as metals, ceramics, and resins are provided, while time consuming laboratory procedures, such as cutting restorative materials, welding, and sintering are facilitated. In addition, surface characteristics of titanium alloys and high strength ceramics can be altered. Finally, the potential of lasers to increase the adhesion of zirconia ceramics to different substrates has been tested for all laser devices, including a new ultrafast generation of lasers.

Seun Ayoade’s Law of Living Things and the 21 Grams Controversy; Related Paradigms

In 1901, Duncan MacDougall performed one of the most controversial experiments of all time. He claimed that at the exact point of death a human being lost 21.3 grams [1-2]. This, he concluded, was the weight of the human soul

Convergence of Biology and Gender Identity: A Study of Toni Morrison’s The Bluest Eyes

The concept of gender and the related practices are born at the intersection of biology and politics. Biological markers; physical, physiological and psychological are politicized for hierarchical positioning of man and woman. The nexus between biology and politics has also generated the notion of ‘immutability’ of woman’s ‘gendered self’. Women too, having interiorized the inferiority of the self unquestioningly and have shown little inclination to redefine her-‘self’ after having accepted the nature’s role in her physical and physiological formation. The inability for better ‘self’ definition is also due to the failure to distinguish the exact point of confluence between biology and politics in the socially ascribed gender identities. Caught in the imbroglio woman has suffered crippled social and psychological consequences and the same is well substantiated in the novel The Bluest Eye by African American writer Toni Morrison. The women characters in the novel are paradigms of real life situations. While some do acutely suffer from social and psychological deprivation having interiorized the inferiority of their biological markers, others handle affirmatively the socially ascribed deprivations of their physical self by understanding the nexus between biology and cultural politics. The novel successfully explores the fact that distinct anatomical difference between man and woman or the biological identities of humans should not be the cause or source of discriminatory practices. Or in other words the novel denies the inferiority of woman as something hermetically sealed and that social factors; advantages of birth (like race and social class), socio-cultural pressures, cultivation of mental culture and many more are of great consequence for both the formation of ‘positive self- identity’ by woman and for challenging of gender significations.

Awareness, Groundedness, Embodiment: Intrapersonal Elements in Interpersonal Relationships

Human beings are inherently relational. To relate may mean to communicate, interact, transact, engage, involve and even just be with another person. It may imply fulfilling and satisfying the needs of one another. In a more altruistic tone, the relationship is giving and receiving. Others see a relationship as a social exchange. In contrast, others may see it as a social and ethical contract that ought to adhere. Others see a relationship as an instrument as a means to self-actualize or as a process of reaching the self-potential. There are many types of relationships. While others have a formal set of rules, there are interpersonal relationships that have loose code of affair. Among the dimensions of relationship, intimate interpersonal relationships are complicated. In contrast to business affair, marriage and in other intimate partnership, sanctions, roles and rules are not clearly defined. The ambiguity of interpersonal relationships reflects the dynamisms of its elements. Since its fluid, contextual and multi-faceted, there is no exact point of analysis. In this article, awareness, dialog, groundedness, embodiment are discussed in the light of intimate partner conflicts that are amplified using fictional case vignettes that are adopted from real cases of intimate conflict. This article concludes with the assertion that cultivation of relationships starts with the person.
