    The present day transactions result into petabytes of data collected and the credit almost goes to the booming ICT industry. The data received is able to detect the hidden patterns for the enterprises and research industry and help them to improve their traditional methods. However the data is unstructured and requires new innovative technologies to be implemented in the architecture handling big data. In the present paper, we have tried to explore the NOSQL database handling techniques and specifically the indexes that help to reduce the time complexity to handle the unstructured data. This paper is divided into four sections where the first section compares the DBMS and DSMS followed by the literature review on this technique and introduction to the MongoDB architecture and overview of NOSQL databases. The fourth section handles the types of the databases, it’s index types. Fifth section describes the performance comparison of the various MongoDB with RDBMS

    The aim of this project is to provide the cloud security infrastructure with a security policy such that the data encryption takes place as per need of data and provide suitable security to data based on the security needs of data with resource optimization in mind, as most of the data stored in cloud database would not be a classier document. Some of, or a high percentage of, data must be no encryption required-data. A model is needed which would not only classify the data but also handle the security concerns of data according to class which could be based on any security parameter, security criteria, or a set of conditions which are to be decided in accordance with the cloud service provider .On the basis of these predefined security criteria classes are formed and eventually various types of policies can be applied to the classes for which the cloud service provider agrees and is capable of. The data have different values and characteristics that must be identified before sending to cloud severs. As per the literature review so far the model present is a combination of K-Nearest Neighbor (K-NN) classifier and the Rivest, Shamir and Adelman (RSA) algorithm ,where data is classi?ed into sensitive and non sensitive data ,only the sensitive data is encrypted using RSA algorithm. In a cloud server, the data are stored in two ways. First encrypt the received data and store on cloud servers. Second store data on the cloud servers without encryption. As the literature states, after implementing this model it is found that the confidentiality level of data is increased and this model is proved to be more cost and memory friendly for the users as well as for the cloud services providers. This classi?cation technique uses binary number of class. The sensitivity of data can vary from more than just two levels. The data can grow two large to handle by K-NN and better technique exists to handle large data sets. For encryption any outsource algorithm would do more appropriate for cloud environment. This project proposes a model with more number of target classes which can handle the sensitivity of data more precisely and satisfy the need of security architecture. The model uses decision tree induction algorithm for classifier and the encryption algorithm can be used in varieties with a single class with no encryption. The classified data is then loaded into the servers into different data centres. The model aims at classi?cation of data on basis of various security parameter or cloud policies

    The Bc(1S0)B_c(^1S_0) meson to S-wave Charmonia transition form factors are calculated in next-to-leading order(NLO) accuracy of Quantum Chromodynamics(QCD). Our results indicate that the higher order corrections to these form factors are remarkable, and hence are important to the phenomenological study of the corresponding processes. For the convenience of comparison and use, the relevant expressions in asymptotic form at the limit of mc0m_c\rightarrow0 for the radiative corrections are presented

    Good adherence to treatment is crucial to control tuberculosis (TB). Efficiency and feasibility of directly observed therapy (DOT) under routine program conditions have been questioned. As an alternative, Médecins sans Frontières introduced self-administered therapy (SAT) in several TB programs. We aimed to measure adherence to TB treatment among patients receiving TB chemotherapy with fixed dose combination (FDC) under SAT at the Homa Bay district hospital (Kenya). A second objective was to compare the adherence agreement between different assessment tools

    A Wearable Glove for Measuring Fingers Flexion to Identify Specific Hand Gestures Using Flex Sensors

    This paper presents a special method of communication for the speech impaired people and other patients using their hand gestures. A microcontroller based system has been developed for measuring fingers flexion to identify specific hand gestures using flex sensors. The system is made wearable and has been deployed on a glove. To measure the fingers flexion for a specific hand gesture five flex sensors are tailored for each finger on the glove. These flex sensors produce signals corresponding to different hand gestures and finger movements. Flex sensors simply change their resistance values according to the degree of bend angle made. They convert the change in bend to electrical resistance-the more the bend, the more is the resistance value. The system has been built around a widely used eight bit microcontroller ATMega328P that has a built-in 10-bit multiplexed channel Analog-to-Digital Converter for the signal conditioning purpose. The important factors while designing a glove is the calibration, the finger size, height and thickness varies from patient to patient and these inaccurate measurements of parameter leads to overlapping of the sign

    Investigation on the Involvement of Phytoconstituents in Endocrine Disorder: A Review

    Get PDF
    The endocrine system consists of various glands responsible for secreting hormones that regulate metabolism, growth, reproduction, and other physiological processes. Disruptions in this system, termed endocrine disorders, are linked to numerous health issues, such as obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and metabolic syndromes. Moreover, the significance of factors such as life stage, gender and dietary habits in influencing health risks associated with endocrine disruption cannot be overstated. Synthetic medications for these conditions often have adverse side effects like hypoglycemia and heart complications, highlighting the need for alternative treatments. Herbal and natural remedies have shown promise in managing these disorders due to their lower toxicity and minimal side effects. Phytochemicals and poly-herbal therapies are emerging as effective strategies for addressing endocrine and metabolic disorders, influencing molecular targets like AMP-Activated Protein Kinase (AMPK) and nuclear factor erythroid-2- related factor (Nrf2). Specific disorders such as diabetes, Addison’s disease and hyperthyroidism are characterized by hormone imbalances, with molecular mechanisms involving insulin resistance, cortisol dysregulation, and thyroid dysfunction. Additionally, the role of factors such as life stage, gender, and dietary habits in modulating endocrine disruption-associated health risks is crucial. Natural products, including flavonoids, catechins, resveratrol, and terpenes, are being explored for their therapeutic potential in regulating hormone levels and improving metabolic health.
