3. Fatigue seen in caregivers of the intellectually disabled population

Individuals with disabilities are often dependent on their primary caregivers for assistance and activities of daily living. A caregiver here may either be a family member or a person trained in special health care. Most caregivers are found to be stressed and fatigued due to the nature of their work. In case the caregiver is a member of the family it is important to equally distribute the responsibilities of the disabled person amongst family members to avoid extra burden on any one person.

4. Sex education program for intellectually disabled

Individuals with special needs experience the same sexual feelings like the neurotypical population. This process consists of an interaction between the physical, cognitive, mental, social, relational, ethical, religious and cultural factors as illustrated by Murphy and Elias (2006). Sex education can support children and young people with disabilities in their sexual development and contribute to their health and wellbeing but most of them are deprived of this privilege and do not get the required education that would foster a positive image of sexuality and would empower them. The present paper aims at presenting a full-fledged curriculum design that can enable the intellectually disabled to learn about sex education in a step by step and gradual manner with reinforcement at different stages to gauge the level of understanding of the same.

5. Intrusion Detection Classification and Detection by Machine Learning and Deep Learning Approaches: Review

DoS attacks that disrupt important, intelligent services like healthcare can also result in human death due to the disruption of routine services. devices (for example, intelligent refrigerators, smart televisions, and air conditioners) are easily attacked by attackers who exploit their weaknesses to launch denial-of-service attacks. As a result, one of the primary concerns for researchers all over the world is the protection of these devices. Globally, intrusion detection is being studied to fix this matter. IDS are classified into three categories based on their detection capabilities: Depending on a signature, a specification, or an anomaly. Whenever a device or network connections analyses an attack against a signature contained in the inner IDS database, an attack is identified by IDSs. If a device or network operation matches one of the saved signatures/patterns, a warning will be generated. This method is extremely reliable and effective at recognizing identified risks, and its process is simple to comprehend. However, this technique is ineffective in classifying new attacks and discrepancies between current These sorts of assaults do not have a meaningful signature to identify them If the divergence from a specified behaviour profile exceeds a predefined threshold, an anomaly-based intrusion detection system (IDS) issues an alert. Classifying intrusions does not seem to follow a typical pattern, and understanding the whole spectrum of normal activity is not an easy task. Emerging threats may be identified using this method. As a consequence, there is a significant rate of false positives with this method. Routing tables, protocols, and nodes, for example, are all part of the specification-based approach since they are all defined by a set of rules and criteria. It is possible to identify intrusions when network behaviour deviates from standards' specifications, using specification-based techniques. Therefore, specification-based detection is used for the same goal as anomaly detection: to separate aberrant behaviour from normal behaviour.

6. Credit Card Fraud Detection and Classification by Optimize Features and Deep Learning

Traditionally, rule-based systems have been the primary instrument for detecting fraud in today's financial systems, with fraud specialists defining the rules based on prior instances and outcomes. If a new transaction meets one or more of the previously established criteria, an alert is triggered, indicating that the new transaction may be fraudulent. For previously known fraud tendencies, the rule-based method is effective. Before adding a new rule to the current rule set, a sufficient number of fraudulent transactions must have happened that fit the rule. During this time span, fraud techniques may evolve, resulting in the induced rule expiring. Thus, the emphasis should be on using prior transactions that follow a rule-based approach in conjunction with an unsupervised method that detects previously unknown fraud activity. There is a need to use fraud detection systems that are capable of keeping up with the cardholder's updated spending behaviour. The detection process's goal is to identify as much fraud as possible while reducing the false positive rate, which has a negative effect on cardholder satisfaction as the cost of providing more false alarms increases. To accomplish this approach, the threshold value is determined at the account level of the cardholder by evaluating the probability sequence of previous and new incoming transactions. Additionally, identified fraudulent transactions are labelled in the database for future analysis in the event that additional assessment is required.

9. Operations Research on service scheduling in the healthcare sector: A systematic review

The current state of healthcare in the world is dire, with millions of people unable to access healthcare services on time. One of the key reasons behind this problem is the lack of operational efficiency in many clinics and hospitals, caused due to unscientific scheduling practices. Hence, this paper seeks to conduct a systematic review of the existing research done in the field of healthcare service scheduling, and its multiple sub-sections viz. appointment scheduling, nurse rostering, home healthcare scheduling, etc. The bibliometric review found that majority of the research in the aforementioned field is scattered and lacks integration. Moreover, past research has primarily employed matheuristics, mixed integer linear programming and simulation approaches to solve service scheduling problems, without exploring other methods to a great extent. In the end, we suggest some topics in which future research can be conducted.

13. Impact of social media during elections - A global perspective

Smart leaders frequently use new media to affect politics. Election-related effects of social media were noticeable in the early 2000s. In his first presidential campaign, Barack Obama made use of social media to mobilize the public and win the 2008 election. According to Pew Research Center, 74% of internet users or 55% of the adult population—looked for election news online during Obama's first campaign. Local elections also benefit greatly from social media. A famous example is when Beto O'Rourke came dangerously close to unseating Senator Ted Cruz in 2018. The majority of Indian political figures now use Facebook and Twitter to express themselves without the censorship of mainstream media. It is vital to understand how social media affects elections and what voters can do to use the internet responsibly given that candidates devote a lot of resources to social media campaigns. Social media platforms were created by businesses to encourage interaction, but although this interaction can help politicians spread their messages and reach more voters, it has also been demonstrated to make it simple for election misinformation to spread globally

14. Application of Queuing Theory in Passenger Queuing Optimization at Airports – A Systematic Review

Waiting lines and queues are a frequent occurrence in both the workings of businesses and the daily lives of clients. A queue is the first contact point between a business and its client. Clients may not be satisfied with lengthy queues. Therefore, in order to leave a lasting first impression on the client’s mind, it is crucial for a company to ensure minimal queuing. The aviation industry experiences significant queuing issues as a result of passengers queuing up for boarding, departure, luggage pickup, and so on. A systematic queue network is also required to guarantee that planes experience minimum air and runway congestion. Queuing theory is a mathematical approach to the analysis of queue waiting times. This paper presents a run-through of queuing theory and its application in the aviation industry, covering a detailed explanation of queuing theory, terminologies associated with it, recent advancements in airport queuing, various queuing models, as well as some suggestions for further research.

17. Experimental analysis and optimization of wind turbine for domestic application

The conventional sources of energy are fast depleting and are causing very serious problem to the environment, for example combustion of fuels causes atmospheric pollution which is not suitable for human beings as well as other species living in the environment. The other major drawback of conventional sources is their high cost. The processes by which the conventional sources are extracted are also expensive. So there is a need to search for alternate source of energy and to extract them to meet our needs. An attempt is made to extract alternate source of energy that is wind. Wind energy is used to rotate the blade which helps the dc motor to produce dc current. By installing small wind turbine in the village and city which is situated in western ghat of Tamandu and Maharashtra, the state of Gujarat and Karnataka we can easily produce electricity due to its geographical location. This small wind turbine is able to generate the enough power for a household application in remote area. This will help the nation to overcome with the power crises problem specially in summer season

20. Design and Modeling of Distributed Generation with Solar Micro Grid

Today most things are electrified and at the same time demand for the electricity is rapidly increasing. So, to overcome this deviation between generating capacity and demand, we need to increase the generation of electricity. These sudden changes in the energy demands and forecast can be met with the implementation of Renewable energy sources in less time. This is the reason nowadays the world running towards renewable energy generation sources like Solar, Wind, etc. Renewable energy generation is a Carbon-free emission. Generation with Solar PV System could be a solution to overcome energy demand day by day. As the solar PV system is depending on Sun and weather conditions, so it gives low and varying which provides a lower efficiency compared with the other energy sources, An MPPT technique plays an in increasing the output of the solar PV system by tracking the maximum power that could generate at the point of the instance of solar irradiance. An optimum point will be determined at which the maximum power point is defined, and it may vary with cell temperatures and insulation levels at a certain PV Array voltage. The work of an MPPT is to extract the maximum power from the optimal point of the solar PV array to increase the output from the system. Our motto is two eliminate the difference between, load demand and generation. So, by using MPPT Techniques along with Distributed Generation system we can achieve this. Distributed generation system is nothing but a generating station near load centers. By this technique, we install solar generating stations in rural areas and they will connect with the main supply grid, so we will distribute the electricity without interruption.

24. Privatization of public sector – An Indian perspective

Privatisation is not a single, distinct economic idea. Instead, it encompasses a diverse variety of activities that all indicate a shift in the delivery of goods and services from the public to the private sector. Privatization, for instance, encompasses a variety of actions, such as the sale of public assets to private owners, the simple termination of government initiatives, the contracting out of previously provided services by state agencies to private producers, and the entry of private companies into markets that were previously monopolized by the state. Additionally, the definition of privatisation varies around the world depending on where it is practised and the underlying economic principles. Many business analysts and economic experts believe that privatisation could accelerate economic growth owing to more competition, while others believe that it could actually worsen existing problems like unemployment and cause the economy to regress. This substantial move from public to private administration in India will result in a variety of notable improvements, including increased effectiveness and quality of remaining government functions, less taxation, and a reduction in overall government size. The profit-seeking conduct of new, private sector management will surely result in cost reduction and more emphasis on customer satisfaction in the tasks that are privatised.

Additionally, it creates the framework for a company's goals to be met and covers almost every aspect of management, from action plans and internal controls to performance evaluation and corporate disclosures. The need for an efficient and transparent corporate governance system has grown as a result of high-profile corporate governance failure scams, such as the stock market scam, the UTI scam, the Ketan Parikh scam, and the Satyam scam, which was sharply criticized by the shareholders. These scams have a significant impact on the nation's development.

29. Wilful defaulters and the Indian banking sector: A study

In this research paper, we analyze the increasing number of wilful defaulters in India and how certain shortcomings of the banking system contribute to this. Recently, the rising incidence of NPAs has generally caused the performance of the banking sector to decline. The paper encompasses past defaults that have occurred and how they have impacted the Indian financial sector. It is important to acknowledge how a well-structured banking sector contributes to the development of a country. We have made use of secondary data from various sources to support our assumption about the increase of wilful defaulters.

30. Which silicon structure makes the most effective solar cell?

This research paper aims at examining which silicon structure would make the best solar cell. Three different structures were used - polycrystalline, monocrystalline, and amorphous. By using different colored filters with different wavelengths, the wavelength of the incident light was altered. The current and voltage that were generated by the monocrystalline solar cell were measured for different incident light wavelengths. This was then repeated for the other 2 structures of solar cells. The analysis of the obtained data resulted in the following conclusions: 1. There is perhaps a large bandgap in the amorphous cell, as its output varies with frequency. 2. There is perhaps a small bandgap in polycrystalline cells, as at lower wavelengths, its output varies with frequency; at higher wavelengths, its output varies with intensity. 3. There is a medium-sized bandgap in monocrystalline cells. The output of the monocrystalline cell varies between the outputs of the other 2 cells. At higher wavelengths, the output varies to a certain extent with intensity; at lower wavelengths, the output varies to a certain extent with frequency. As a result, their conclusions were used in order to answer the research question that stated, “Which silicon structure makes the most effective solar cell?” There is no ideal structure for a solar cell; each structure’s effectiveness is determined by its usage. The amorphous cell is not expensive, and there is little variation in its output with a change in intensity. However, it produces relatively less power. As a result, it is highly effective for smaller-scale usages such as in watches or calculators, in environments that have low intensity. The polycrystalline cell output mainly varies with intensity, which thereby makes it useful for outdoor usages such as in deserts. At low wavelengths, it shows variation with a change in frequency, which thereby makes it useful for times such as dawn and dusk when there is bluish light. Since its production of power is much greater, it is highly suitable for larger-scale productions of energy. The monocrystalline cell has an output that is greater than the amorphous cell, but not high enough to account for its expensive cost. It is applicable on a smaller scale, such as in processor chips.

33. Surgical Safety Checklist: Challenges and A Way Out

Surgery is at the pinnacle of today’s health care system. It is the only intervention that alleviates pain, disability and decreases the risk of death from common conditions. While surgeries are expected to safe lives, negligence in carrying out them can cause substantial harm to the patients. In 2009, the World Health Organization (WHO) published the Surgical Safety Checklist (SSC) as part of their Safe Surgery Saves Lives campaign. It was developed by WHO with the aim to decrease errors and adverse events and increase teamwork and communication in surgery. Over the years, this 19-item checklist has shown reduction in both morbidity and mortality among surgical patients and is now used by most of the surgical providers all over the planet. Though the checklist has improved surgical outcomes, many health-care providers are hesitant in implementing it in their everyday practice. Right utilization of this form can transform surgical care.

34. The effect of social media marketing on consumer behaviour

Nearly every industry in India has adopted social media marketing. According to a Goldman Sachs report, the Indian digital marketing business is expected to be worth $160 billion by 2025. Digital marketing is expanding quickly in India as consumers have been inspired to purchase from a new brand after seeing social media images or posts, thus it has been found that 71% of consumers are more likely to make a purchase based on social media referrals. Therefore it is important for us to understand how social media has influenced consumers' purchase behavior. Therefore the research aimed to investigate the factors that influence customer buying decisions through online forms of marketing (social media) by comparing it with offline forms of marketing(billboards), by making use of the advertisements provided by the multinational company Starbucks. The research also aimed to investigate why individuals are more convinced to buy a drink through social media than through offline marketing. The research was conducted on 40 customers of Starbucks in India, and Mumbai, most of them being students who follow Starbucks on various social media platforms. Data was collected through an online questionnaire sent through google forms. The results of the research indicated that since social media marketing makes use of various creative elements(music, graphic,s and colors), customer testimonials and helps satisfy a need, which gives them social proof, individuals are more convinced to purchase a drink from Starbucks than through offline forms of marketing. This concludes that social media marketing is more effective than offline marketing since it gives social proof, and therefore has a more significant effect on consumers' purchase behavior.

35. Effect of Intradialytic Aerobic Exercise on Fatigue in Patients Undergoing Hemodialysis

Fatigue is a common debilitating symptom which remains unrecognized among people with chronic kidney disease with significant impacts on patients’ everyday functioning. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of intradialytic aerobic exercise on fatigue in hemodialysis patients. A Quasi experimental study was carried out among 60 adult hemodialysis patients (30 each in the groups) selected by consecutive sampling technique. The baseline characteristics and pretest fatigue score were assessed for both the groups and the intradialytic aerobic exercise was administered for 8 weeks (three times/week) among the experimental group. Then post intervention I and II fatigue score were assessed in both the groups at end of 4th and 8th week. In Control group, there was no statistically significant difference in fatigue score between pre intervention, post intervention I and II (32.43 ± 7.78, 32.20 ± 7.00 and 31.13 ± 8.44, F=1.29, p = 0.28)). Whereas, in experimental group, there was significant reduction in fatigue score in post intervention I (26.97 ± 8.60) and II (23.57 ± 7.29) than pre intervention (32.20 ± 8.64) at p=0.001. There was significant difference in post intervention I (t=2.58, p= 0.001) and post intervention II (t=3.71, p = 0.001) between control and experimental group. This study shows that intradialytic aerobic exercises is beneficial in reducing fatigue, as a supplementary therapy in hemodialysis patients.

To assess the explanatory model and perceived burden of child and adolescent psychiatric disorder and to study the relationship between them. Observation design was used. Computerized simple random technique was used to recruit 200 subjects after consent. Short explanatory model interview (SEMI) was used to assess the explanatory model and the family intervention burden scale was used to rate the burden of primary care givers. Among 200 subjects, 53.5% and 50.5% have medical model and non medical model respectively. Among the medical model 46.5% have allopathic perspective and 54.5% have complementary and alternative medicine model. Mean burden of primary care giver was 18.86 with SD ±11.08. There is a significant relationship between explanatory model and perceived burden of primary care givers (P=0.025). Assessing and understanding the influence of explanatory model on burden helps in intervening with burden of the primary care givers. Education and support are an essential part of nursing care. It is an effective method for improving the knowledge as well as decreasing burden of child and adolescent psychiatric disorders among primary care givers and will help in increasing adherence to therapeutic regimen.

41. Maggi out of a “big soup”

Maggi as a word is one that each Indian recognizes and Maggi as a brand is one that each Indian loves. Over the years, Maggi Noodles has become an emotion rather than a brand. Bringing back nostalgic memories of childhood and solving instant food problems for all social classes; Maggi Noodles has always been the go-to solution. After being the household favorite for over 32 years, in 2015 was a ban imposed on Nestle’s Maggi Noodles. Combating a long fight was not easy for Maggi, especially as it was in the constant public light and there were people protesting (Reddy, 2020). To date, questions still arise about the health hazards of Maggi and this research has been conducted to understand just how much these questions have impacted consumer buying choices. We have done so by creating a survey asking various questions about the subject's relationship with Maggi, gathering these responses, and analyzing them. Some questions asked were ‘How often do you consume Maggi noodles? ,‘Did you crave Maggi during the Maggi ban?’, ‘Is Maggi a synonym for noodles to you?’ etc. Through this extensive research, we found the answers to our questions and realized that even though Maggi has had its fair share of setbacks, it is still the leading instant noodle brand in India and is loved by people of all ages alike (Ray, 2016).

44. The Contribution of Social Media in Fueling Rebellion Among Teenagers

Marketing strategists have utilized social media platforms to increase sales, establish brand identity, and raise awareness. However, there are difficulties in converting public participation into financial growth. As a result, the current study looked into the challenges and success of social media marketing in attracting customers. The food retail market in India was the focus of the study because it has a diverse retail pattern and a simultaneous rise in social media use and internet use. The quantitative component of the research helped identify the relevant factors that customers perceive as having a significant impact on social media marketing's efficacy. Interviews with social media strategists were part of the qualitative research component, which helped decipher the implemented strategies as well as the opportunities and challenges associated with social media marketing. Two major Jakarta-based retailers served as the subjects of the study. According to the quantitative results of the survey, consumers did not consider the social aspect of social media marketing to be helpful in achieving their goals. Customers' perceptions of the relevance of social media marketing were found to be significantly influenced by factors such as belief (relevance of social media in obtaining up-to-date information and the capacity to share experiences), community participation (active participation in a retailer's social media page and stimulating the retail brand), monetary (obtaining better prices and free coupons for making purchases), and psychological (seeking a sense of affiliation and belonging in the community and establishing and maintaining relationships with other members).

This paper aims to try to conclusively figure out whether cryptocurrencies and digital assets, which some investors call “assets of the future” are in a financial bubble, and using past data aims to find out what will happen if this bubble bursts, and what will be the future of this asset class. This paper hypothesizes that cryptocurrencies are in fact in a bubble, but due to the utility and use cases of this technology, some elements of this asset class may survive and may be able to fulfill the purpose of cryptocurrencies. Through the research conducted in this paper, it is concluded that cryptocurrencies were in an economic bubble, and the bubble burst in 2022, causing massive losses. The paper, however, also concludes that some parts of cryptocurrency may survive and like the hypothesis states may be able to be the future of finance as a whole, and fulfill the initial purpose of why cryptocurrencies were created.

A calcaneal spur also called an enthesophyte, is an abnormal bone outgrowth at the inferior part of the calcaneus bone which is a common cause of heel pain. The surgical treatment of plantar fascia release and excision of the spur is available but the complication includes incomplete pain relief and nerve damage may occur. Siddha treatment is one of the best for the management of calcaneal spur. A patient was successfully treated with kattukattal method is presented in this case study. Presentation of the case In this study, we present a case of the calcaneal spur in an adult woman of 36 years who did not have any chronic disease, treated with five sittings of kattukattal without any oral medication. The calcaneal spur was painful, which affected his foot function and was associated with plantar fasciitis. The spur length was measured using a radiograph. Methodology Here the patient is treated externally by kattukattal with Thirugukalli (Euphorbia tortilis), Thaluthalai (Clerodendrum phlomides), Notchi (Vitex negundo) leaves are stir-fried in castor oil and placed inside the banana stem, tied over the heel. This has Anti-inflammatory and Analgesic activity. After the first sitting pain was relieved partially and after the fifth sitting she had a great prognosis. The patient was assessed by LEFS, a self-report questionnaire, and Perceived pain intensity was evaluated by a visual analog scale. Discussion and Results The probable mode of action of kattukattal with heated herbs pacifies the vitiated vathakapha dosha and reduces pain and inflammation. This increases blood circulation at the heel region helps to flush out toxins material from the blood and reduces pain and local inflammation. This case confirms that kattukattal is an easy and economical procedure which can be performed at OPD level and can avoid injections, surgery and other proceeding complications.

52. Ethnic voting is determined by villages in homogeneous tribal societies in India with special reference to Nagaland.

Majoritarian politics somehow finds a footing even in homogeneous tribal societies and not only in heterogeneous social systems. The performance of a parliamentary Government within ethnic communities is expected to perform well, especially under the First Past the Post System. The alienation of certain communities and the exclusion of minorities from the positions of legislative leadership in policy-making may continue for generations. This is the dark facet of competition and electoral politics in Nagaland. The size of the villages corresponding to a high population becomes the prized possession of every legislator or person having political ambitions. Candidates vie the affection of these villages. This paper explains big village chauvinism and its effects on the political competition in Nagaland. It will further explore the idea of village politics dominated by big villages under the authority of traditions by asserting that the circulation of leadership is only within a few majority villages. Representation to the legislature gives leverage to the villages having Members to the Legislative Assembly in the state. These villages are more accessible to state resources. This paper will highlight the narrow field of recruitment to a career in politics and the entrenched traditions that forgets the minority.

55. Sentiment analysis on COVID-19 Vaccine

In the current scenario of the COVID-19 pandemic, ensuring vaccination is a top priority. Our project aims to clarify people's attitudes toward vaccination against COVID-19. Various studies have already been conducted to measure mood associated with COVID-19 vaccines, but they all suffer from a major common flaw: poor mood classification accuracy. Our project aims to increase the accuracy of mood classification for COVID-19 vaccines compared to previous studies. In our project, we used ABSA (Aspect-Based Sentiment Analysis) and TF-IDF (Term Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency) models for sentiment classification. We also tested the classification accuracy using five traditional machine learning models: Random Forest, Naive Bayes, Support Vector Machines, Logistic Regression, and Ensemble Classification. For our project, we classify sentiment into three categories called positive, negative, and neutral. This in many ways distinguishes our project from the literature. First, according to the limited research we read, ABSA and TF-IDF were not used together. Second, most of the previous studies used the bag-of-words approach, an outdated model compared to ABSA. Finally, traditional machine learning models such as random forests and ensemble classification have never been used in ABSA and TF-IDF. This project provides higher accuracy than stated in our results as a mood classifier for COVID-19 vaccines, whereas previous studies have less than 67% accuracy.

56. Song recommendation system using emotion detection

Human emotion detection is an immediate need so that modern AI systems can simulate and measure facial responses. It also has advantages in the identification of intent, promotion of products, and security verification. Real-time emotion recognition from images and video is a very simple task for the human eyes and brain, but it proves to be very difficult for machines and similar machine learning tools. Basically, Image Processing techniques are needed for feature extraction supported by a reliable database trained in a Machine Learning model for the system. Several machine learning algorithms and tools such as Convolutional Neural Networks, OpenCV, Deep Learning, Eigen values, and Eigen vectors are suitable for this job and I intend to use these methods in this project. For machines development of different modules and then training them using various images and real-time feed is essential. Various leading institutions and researchers have trained their own models for an accuracy of approximately 50% and above. This project explores the ML algorithms as well as emotion detection techniques which would help us in the correct identification of human emotion and furthermore, implementation of the system into a useful application of a music recommendation system.

58. Diet and lifestyle -key factors in the manifestation and prevention of the disease

Nowadays prescribing medication as a first line of treatment is more common than modifying the dietary habits and lifestyle of people. Improper diet and a sedentary lifestyle are responsible for many diseases. A certain group of diseases popularly knowns as NCD or lifestyle disorders are directly related to these two factors. Ayurveda the most ancient science of medicine still aims at uprooting the cause of diseases rather than symptomatic relief. According to Ayurveda, to achieve and maintain Arogya (health) it is essential to practice healthy dietary and lifestyle interventions. A sufficient amount of safe and nutritious food is key to sustaining life and promoting health whereas improper and unsafe food items create a vicious cycle of disease. Similarly, lifestyle choice plays an important role in the manifestation, prevention, and treatment of the disease. Many lifestyle interventions mentioned in Ayurveda include avoiding the suppression of manifested urges and adapting Swasthavritta in the form of Dincharya, Nishachraya, Ritucharya, and Sadavritta have a huge impact on a person’s overall health. One must adopt these dietary and lifestyle practices to achieve and maintain healthy living. This paper is an attempt to emphasize the importance of dietary and lifestyle behaviors in the manifestation and prevention of diseases, it enlists the various dos and don’t that one must consider in day-to-day life for healthy living.

59. Validity and reliability study of Menopausal Maladies Scale (MMS)

Menopause is a natural part of the aging process in women’s life during which the women juggle multiple caring responsibilities such as providing care and support to both parents and children or grandchildren. In fact, the women are “sandwiched” between the responsibilities related to two generations. Menopause has various phases as mentioned by STRAW + 10 classification among which perimenopausal and early postmenopausal periods are more significant because the women suffer from most significant health problems due to estrogen depletion. If the problems are not identified in the early stage and treated these problems become sicknesses (maladies) and bring the women’s life to an end. MENQOL, Menopausal Rating scale, and MODIFIED Kupperman’s Index are popularly used tools to assess menopausal problems. The tool Menopausal Maladies Scale (MMS) is developed from the above-mentioned tools. MMS includes a wide range of items relating to the Maladies of menopausal women which mainly ley in the physiological and psychological domains. MMS physiological domain and psychological domain are further classified under physiological Maladies Skin, Heart, Sleep, Joint and muscular problems, and urogenital problems and Psychological Maladies include Depression, Anxiety, Stress, and Memory & concentration. The MMS was a reliable and valid tool to assess menopausal maladies.

60. Digitalized Agricultural Resources Information System and Iot-Based Smart Farming

Grow more plants over a larger area, we need to use slower wattage lights. Overpowering the grow area, simply results in excess heat wasted electricity, and inner tip burn of plants. Lettuce is one of the most popular and faster-growing crops hydroponically. The changes in Temperature, and humidity will affect the growth of the plant. Hence plant monitoring is a necessary part of hydroponic systems. The difficulty of knowing the environmental information and nutrient requirements of the plant sometimes makes issues. The awareness of the above information is an important thing for hydroponic systems. Several types of sensors are required for monitoring the growth of hydroponic systems such as Temperature sensors, Light Sensitivity Sensors, Humidity sensors, etc. A microcontroller is needed for processing the output of the sensor data. A processor called Arduino can accommodate data from different sensors at the same time. The farmers will get the right information on the growth of the plants by using different sensors and analyzing data in such a way they will get more yield. The analyzed report will help the farmers to monitor the growth of the plants and improve the quality of the crops.

61. Performance of Micro Unit Development and Refinance Agency (MUDRA) Yojana, an initiative of the Government of India

the project aimed at growing micro businesses. The data for MUDRA Yojana came primarily from MUDRA Yojana's yearly reports and website, but it also came from numerous journals, magazines, and periodical publications. The study looked at a variety of credit schemes and how they performed. To achieve the study's goal, statistical tools such as descriptive, percentage, and ANOVA were used to make meaningful comparisons among schemes, areas, financial institutions, total credit, and account numbers. The necessity of the hour is for a specific or more specialized financial institution to serve the credit needs of micro-firms, especially SMEs. The government's MUDRA Yojana project, which provides financial assistance to micro firms, has proven to be a successful undertaking. In many MUDRA Schemes, the growth rate of account opening and credit distribution is showing a favorable trend. The system has been widely adopted by marginalized groups, with women accounting for 73.41 percent of account holders and new businesses accounting for 25.16 percent. However, the northern states of the country show a lower level of participation in both account formation and credit sourcing. The majority of accounts are opened under the Shishu plan, while Tarun Scheme (Major Projects) participation is low. RRBs and PSBs are less likely than private banks to participate in the scheme, which is not a good trend in the long run. The government's microfinance project is progressing in a balanced manner.

64. Solar Base Distributed Generation in the electrical distributed network using PSO and genetic algorithm with Ant Colony Optimization

Energy plays a vital role for all humans as it can neither be created nor destroyed but can move/transform from one place to another. Modern living has realized the increased importance of energy as life moves faster; there is a significant need for fast communication, fast transport, and manufacturing processes. So, the energy industry forms one of the biggest consumer markets . The use of electric power system requires an alternative generation because of its great demand by the consumers. The electricity cost is calculated based on different proportions such as 50% for fuel consumption, 25% for distribution, 20% for generation, and 5% for transmission, which has created an alert to use or generate alternative power resources. For the distribution levels, the ratio of reactance to resistance (X/R) is low compared to transmission levels, which has resulted in high power losses and voltage magnitude reduced along with the distribution (radial) lines. The distribution systems must provide energy/electricity to each consumer at an appropriate form of voltage rating. The modern forms of power are involved, with multiple load centers and generating stations interconnected through the transmission and distribution networks. The energy-based power system's main Objective is energy generation and to deliver the energy/power to its customers at its rated voltage-based value with minimum losses. In heavy loading conditions, the reactive form of power flow is the primary cause of failures, reducing voltage levels simultaneously. So, there is a significant need to minimize real losses of power and improve Voltage in distribution systems. In such cases, a variation occurs in the network configuration, usually varying by the operation based on switching meant for transferring the load among the feeders. There are two switches used in distribution systems; one is generally a closed switch that usually connects two line-based sections. The other is the normally open switch placed on tie lines connecting two of the area's primary feeders.

65. Social expectation and role dilemma: The challenges on women's health

ROLE CONFLICT AND WORK STRESS: IMPACT ON WOMEN’S HEALTH The realm of health takes fundamental concern in women’s life, which alter and may be altered by social themes. The domain of health embodies the entire range of issues related to illness, sickness, well-being, preventing, diagnosing, healing, caring, and curing. The health status of women in a society is the index standard, determining social progress. Working women experience greater ‘inter–role’ overload and conflict than either men or non-working women. Much of the household and productive tasks performed by women in India remain unaccounted for due to socio-biological factors. Women do a lot of ‘unpaid’ ‘free’ work at home as per ‘normal’, ‘natural’, and ‘traditional’ social expectations. There is convincing evidence that working women suffer from regular headaches and depression due to the stress of balancing multiple roles. Many potential women of high caliber suppress themselves from career advancement for the sake of a peaceful, stressless family life, considering service to the husband as the fundamental obligation of a woman’s life. Women’s responsibility as ‘providers’ or ‘care giver’ is central at home. While discharging their duties at home as per the expectations of others, woman mostly forgets to take care of themselves. The job ‘outside’, determines her ‘public life and the job ‘inside’ determines her ‘private’ life, working women encounter the ‘dual role dilemma’ This paper opens a window towards women’s ‘ill health’ due to the ‘intrinsic’ and ‘extrinsic’ ‘multiple-role’ conflict
