Construction of private methodical query services in the cloud with RASP data commotion

As digital technology is fast evolving and becoming an essential tool for businesses, the concept of cloud is evolved. The phenomenon of the cloud is described in terms of private and public. The proposed approach is based on the public cloud domain, which consists, numerous nodes with distributed computing resources in many different geographic locations. This approach leads the public cloud domain into several cloud partitions. The approach of distributed computing in the cloud simplifies the load balancing and allows database indexes to build over an encryption table. Many times, data into the cloud is stored by maintaining confidentiality, query privacy, efficient query processing at low cost (CPEL Criteria). However, the data owners always desire to submit their quires after realizing the privacy assurance of the cloud. In this aspect, researchers have introduced few techniques such as RASP (Random Space Perturbation), k-NN (k-Nearest Neighbor) Algorithm etc. The main problem across RASP technique is, generating the encryption key which is too large and its implementation makes the time and space overhead. The existing RASP data perturbation technique along with k-NN algorithm is exploited to furnish privacy to the cloud. Wherein, issues such as categorical data and leaked query in the model are identified and addressed, by holding no change in designing the k-NN-R algorithm.

Self curing concrete

Since we identify water shortage is mounting day by day, so an vital research should be needed to do the constructions without water. In early stages, water was mandatory for the curing purposes in construction. Curing of material do a chief job in rising pore structure and microstructure to increase durability and performance with water-soluble polyethylene glycol as a self-curing agent and lightweight aggregate as granite. The aim of this thesis is to revise concerning the power and stability of concrete with water-soluble polyethylene glycol as the self-curing agent. This agent will lessen the water disappearance from concrete. The goal of this investigation is to look at the strength and durability houses of concrete the usage of water-soluble Polyethylene Glycol as the self-curing agent. The characteristic of a self-curing agent is to reduce the water evaporation from concrete, and therefore they grow the water retention capacity of concrete as compared to the conventionally cured concrete. The use of self-curing admixtures may be very crucial from the point of view that saving of water is a necessity every day (every one cubic meter of concrete calls for 3m3 of water in a construction, most of that's used for curing).In this examine, compressive energy and break up the tensile power of concrete containing self-curing agent is investigated and in comparison with those of conventionally cured concrete. It is observed via this experimental take a look at that concrete cast with Polyethylene Glycol as a self-curing agent is stronger than that received via sprinkler curing in addition to by using immersion curing.

Selective feature processing with k-Nearest Neighbor classification to predict credit card frauds

The predictive analytics are being used in many applications across the globe ranging from financial risk to avalanche studies. In this paper, a new approach is designed to predict the credit card frauds. This approach utilizes the imbalanced feature correction methodology, which eventually reduces the levitation of the features towards one class. The proposed model is designed to filter the credit card data by analyzing the multiple factors to analyze and predict the fraudulent transactions. The proposed model utilizes the maximum-minimum scaling method to scale the quantitative variables on 0-1 scale, after handling the missing values with column mean value. The SVM and KNN based classification method are used to predict the patterns for the credit card frauds. The experimental results have proved the proposed model based on SVM classification as the most efficient algorithm for the purpose of fraudulent pattern prediction. The SVM has been recorded with 99.94% (mean) of accuracy, which is slightly lower than KNN’s 99.95% (mean). Also KNN outperformed SVM on the basis of recall with (approx 91%) and F1 measure (approx 84%) against approx. 84.50% (recall) and approx 82.50% (F1 measure).

Fusing the multimodal Image by simple average, simple minimum, simple maximum, PCA, DWT methods of image fusion – A review

Image fusion is a technique that integrates complimentary details from multiple input images such that the new image gives more information and more suitable for the purpose of human visual perception. This paper presents a review on some of the image fusion techniques (simple average, simple minimum, simple maximum, PCA, DWT). Comparison of all the techniques concludes the better approach for its future research.

Creating value stream mapping to identify areas of improvements and improve USC mailing process

Undergrad housing of USC receive personal emails, official emails, perishable packages, etc., on a regular basis and it is hence a very important task of the housing department to deliver the mails to the right person without any damage. Mails and packages that are received are numbered and are fed into the system by scanning the tracking number and by assigning the receiver’s name to the tracking number. The process seems to be a fairly simple and effective process that makes sure that no package is lost and no package stays in the mailroom for a long time. But when the process of receiving and sorting is analyzed, we can see that there is a lot of scope for improvement & inventory management. By creating a value stream mapping to identify the areas of improvement, there were many non-value adding steps and a lot of waiting time that lead to an increased cycle time. This paper discusses the improvements that can be implemented in the process steps to make it better and hence increase the efficiency of the service delivered by analyzing the inputs, outputs, inventory and value proposition involved.

An appraisal of agile DSDM approach

In current generations, software development has been the biggest problem while developing large-scale applications considering the resourced and dynamic changes of client requirement. Scrum software development, when moving forward took the written format as the agile framework was introduced to overcome the problems caused by the conventional software development life cycle (SDLC). Considering the limitations in Business Process (BP) and Xtreme Programming (XP) this paper will focus on Dynamic System Development methodologies (DSDM) which will help to develop the software at a regular pace accepting dynamic changes in client requirements which will help to better planning, optimizing costs, managing, executing and scaling agile process and iterative software development projects.
