Trafficking of Migrant Workers from Romania: Issues of Labor and Sexual Exploitation

Part of a major research project on the forms of forced labor today developed by the ILO Special Action Programme to Combat Forced Labour (SAP-FL), this paper argues that trafficking for labor exploitation is an emerging issue in Europe and in particular in Romania. Features a detailed comparison of living conditions prior to the emergence of immigration, trafficking, and/or forced labor

Protecting a Graph with Mobile Guards

Mobile guards on the vertices of a graph are used to defend it against attacks on either its vertices or its edges. Various models for this problem have been proposed. In this survey we describe a number of these models with particular attention to the case when the attack sequence is infinitely long and the guards must induce some particular configuration before each attack, such as a dominating set or a vertex cover. Results from the literature concerning the number of guards needed to successfully defend a graph in each of these problems are surveyed.Comment: 29 pages, two figures, surve

Capstone 2014 Art and Art History Senior Projects

It gives us great pleasure to introduce the Gettysburg College Art and Art History senior Capstone projects for 2014. These projects serve as the culmination of the Studio Art and Art History majors. They are as rich and varied as the students themselves and exemplify the commitment the Department of Art and Art History places on creativity and scholarship in a liberal arts education.

Interestingness measure on privacy preserved data with horizontal partitioning

Association rule mining is a process of finding the frequent item sets based on the interestingness measure. The major challenge exists when performing the association of the data where privacy preservation is emphasized. The actual transaction data provides the evident to calculate the parameters for defining the association rules. In this paper, a solution is proposed to find one such parameter i.e. support count for item sets on the non transparent data, in other words the transaction data is not disclosed. The privacy preservation is ensured by transferring the x-anonymous records for every transaction record. All the anonymous set of actual transaction record perceives high generalized values. The clients process the anonymous set of every transaction record to arrive at high abstract values and these generalized values are used for support calculation. More the number of anonymous records, more the privacy of data is amplified. In experimental results it is shown that privacy is ensured with more number of formatted transactions

Novel concepts in vague incidence graphs with application

Fuzzy graph (FG) models enjoy the ubiquity of being in natural and humanmade structures, namely dynamic process in physical, biological, and social systems. As a result of inconsistent and indeterminate information inherent in real-life problems, which are often uncertain, it is highly difficult for an expert to model those problems based on an FG. Vague incidence graph (VIG) can deal with the uncertainty associated with the inconsistent and determinate information of any real-world problem, where FGs may fail to reveal satisfactory results. Also, VIGs are outstandingly practical tools for analyzing different computer science domains such as networking, clustering, capturing the image, and also other issues such as medical sciences, and traffic planning. Hence, in this research, we introduce new operations on VIGs, namely, maximal product, rejection, and residue product with several examples. Likewise, some results related to operations have been described.Publisher's Versio
