Emergency Vehicle Monitoring System

Emergency vehicles such as ambulances, fire fighting vehicles and police force vehicles are required to reach their destination as quickly as possible. One of the most important delays is the time that is consumed in intersections with these traffic lights, especially when their intersections are highly congested. In this paper we discuss the design and implementation of an automatic pre-emption traffic control system that ensures to give preferences to all the emergency vehicles.It is significant to identify the density of traffic on real time mainly in metropolitan cities for signal control. This system is capable to sense the density of vehicles for intelligent traffic management and this will prioritize the emergency vehicle among other vehicles and provide a better route and time management using the database collected. Traffic light posts positioned at the traffic junction set the lights to green for specific period of time which will help the emergency vehicle to move free without getting stuck at any congestion. The proposed system will have RFID readers at the traffic junctions that will read all the RFID tags attached to the vehicles coming towards the junction.

Perlustration on Techno Level Classification of Location Based Services

All over the world more than half of the people are coming out for shopping. Though shopping is one of the basic needs of the people, they don’t show much importance to it due to lack of activeness and high cost. Most of the people think that all costly products are quality products and run towards Shopping Malls. However, all costly products are not quality products and all cheap products are not low in quality. Nowadays most of the online shopping is not reliable and fake products are also sold via online. In this paper, we developed a commodity search system that can search and filter the nearby shops which sell the desired products based on the customers budget. This task is performed using Nearest Neighbour Search and Branch & Bound Algorithm. The Nearest Neighbour Search is used to search the best route, Whereas Branch and Bound Algorithm is used to select the customers budget. Detailed information of related product and shops are displayed in the result, together with a navigation map showing the best route to the target shops. If the desired product is not available nearby, substitutes in the same category will be recommended for the users.

Unconventional Warfare: The Greatest Threat

Machiavelli said Warfare had started along the origin of mankind, but the continuous development of the arsenals altered the face of warfare. With technological outburst, surpassing all limitations of an attack through air, ground, and water. The World War II summed up with a weapon, nuclear bomb, capable of devastating a whole population of a region and may continue to deform genome perfectness of human race as multiple side-effects. All countries are aware of this fact and therefore cannot afford a war that may enter the atomic stage. With impending atomic threat in the state of war unconventional types of war finds favor and that this moral dilemma provides a safe umbrella to terrorist activities too.  Effect of this warfare is not limited in time or space, it is incomprehensive and most of the times enemy remains unknown leaving the suffering state to guess a counter-strategy. The World must be a secure and safe place and therefore eradicating NBC weapons from the scenario, we together can fight against the brutality of Unconventional Warfare.

The Important Aspects of Learning and Teaching in Experimental Sciences

The teaching and learning of experimental sciences, which primarily include the physical sciences, chemical sciences and the broad spectrum of biological sciences. Teaching and learning in the experimental sciences have to take account of a number of issues.  By 2020, experimental science subjects are increasingly seen as difficult and unfashionable alongside the of new disciplines. Accordingly, the rise in student numbers has not been matched by a proportionate rise of numbers within experimental science disciplines and the proportion of students studying the basic science UG and PG courses is decreasing. This has serious implications for curriculum design, for approaches to learning and teaching and for systems, for student support and retention. The changing science from a level of curriculum and the move towards the examination. There are also QAA Subject Benchmarking statements (Quality Assurance Agency), and institutions are increasingly introducing module ‘norms’ for hours of lectures, laboratory classes, and tutorials, and may also define the extent and type of assessments. The Cell for Excellence in Teaching and Learning (CETLs) help the students in writing the practical report or structure or essay. The ‘Differentiated learning’ is, an emerging issue and may be taken as the intention to differentiate learning opportunities and outcomes, differentiation by ability, focus on the ablest. This is a newly emerging issue in higher education.

Knowledge Practice Gaps About Needle Stick Injuries among Health Care Workers at Omdurman Teaching Hospital –Sudan 2016

Needlestick injury remains the potential source for transmission of blood born infection and one of the main safety concerns which need to be addressed for the prevention of various blood-borne diseases among HCWs. The aim of our study was to assess the knowledge and practice gaps about Needle Stick Injuries (NSIs) and their associated factors among Health Care Workers’ (HCWs) at Omdurman teaching hospital. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in may–June2016. (92) Respondents enrolled in the study (medical officer, lab technicians and nurses selected randomly. Results: Overall the knowledge about transmission of HBV HCV and HIV was good, mean knowledge 76.1%, in general, their practice regard news was poor means score practice 88.9%.there is significant relation between knowledge and socio-demographic data p .000 and insignificant between socio-demographic and their practice p.612 From the study concluded that NSSIs are common risk factors for infection among health care workers due to their poor practice, although their knowledge is good. Lastly recommended that Hospitals and healthcare facilities should be provided all preventive skills and instruments against infections.
