    Ange-newline"> </The integration of hermeneutics and the study of Qur'anic interpretation is still considered as a taboo. This article reviewes the hermeneutic conception of Heidegger's Dasein and looks for its relevance to the study of Qur'anic interpretation. Theories within Heidegger's Dasein that can be used tostrengthen Qur'anic studies are theory of facticity, temporality, and theontological-existential. In the midst of the development of contemporarysciences such as hermeneutics on the one hand, and the widespread ofexclusive interpretation of the Qur'an on the other, integration of Westernhermeneutics to the fild of Qur'anic studies is necessar

    Abstract. Gone are the days, when a hardware is changed on every malfunctioning and the whole operation either stays down or load on the replacing hardware becomes too much which ultimately compromises the QoS. The IT industry is mature enough to tackle problems regarding scalability, space utilization, energy consumption, cost, agility and low availability. The expected throughput and network latency with 5G in the cellular Telecommunication Networks seems to be unachievable with the existing architecture and resources. Network Function Virtualization promises to merge IT and Telecommunications in such an efficient way that the expected results could be achieved no longer but sooner. The thesis work examines the compatibility and flexibility of a 3GPP virtual core network in a virtualization platform. The testbed is established on an LTE (Long Term Evolution) based network being already deployed and OpenEPC is added as virtual core network on it. The integration of OpenEPC in 5GTN (5TH Generation Test Network) is discussed in details in the thesis which will give an account of the possibility of implementing such a simulated vEPC (Virtual Evolved Packet Core) in a real network platform. The deployed setup is tested to check its feasibility and flexibility for a platform which could be used for NFV deployment in future. The monitoring of OpenEPC’s individual components while utilizing the major resources within them, forms the primary performance test. The CPU Load and Memory Utilization is tested on different CPU stress levels having a constant data traffic from actual UEs. At the completion of the thesis work, a consensus is built up based on the test results that the test setup can hold number of subscribers to a certain amount without any performance degradation. Moreover, the virtual core network throughput and network latency is also compared to the commercial LTE networks and theoretical maximum values on similar resources to check performance consistency OpenEPC must offer

    Background:&nbsp;The etiology of sleep disruption in intensive care unit is poorly known and often ignored complication. It is caused by the environmental factors especially pain, noise, diagnostic testing and human interventions that cause sleep disruption. Light, medications and activities related to patient care interfere with patient's ability to have good sleep. There are multi-factorial environmental etiologies for disruption of sleep in ICU. Objective:&nbsp;The objective of this study was to evaluate the factors disturbing the sleep quality in intensive care unit (ICU) admitted patients. Methodology:&nbsp;A cross sectional study was designed involving 150 patients admitted in intensive care unit and high dependency unit of Gulab Devi Chest Hospital. The duration of study was from September 2015 to March 2016. The questionnaire was made and filled with the help of patients. The data was analyzed using SPSS version 16.00. Results:&nbsp;Mean age of patients was 50.46+10.96 with maximum age of 65 and minimum age of 30 years. There was 53.33% male patients and 46.67% females participating in this study. The sleep quality was significantly poor in ICU than at home. After analysis, 54.67% patients were with poor quality of sleep due to pain and 48.67% were due to noise of environmental stimuli. The other factors were alarms, light and loud talking. Conclusion:&nbsp;Current study shows that reduced sleep quality is a common problem in ICU with multi-factorial etiologies. Patient reported the poor sleep quality in ICU due to environmental issues that are potentially modifiable.

    Procurement of land in Indonesia was held in order intended for the benefit umum.Tidak definitive definition of public interest is, in its application had an impact mainly affected community development activities in the public interest. Entry legislation latest land acquisition namely Law No. 2 In 2012 on Land Procurement for Development for Public Interest, is set on land procurement for public interest or the interests of development, for in Article 10 states that the Land Public Interest found one of them is a toll road. One side of the will of the state represented by the government for the land acquisition activities for the public interest in order to improve the welfare and prosperity of the nation and society through the implementation of development, is actually the activities as mandated by the Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia Year 1945. Being a problem concerning the meaning of interests Generally, if an activity is a reality and it can not be perceived by the emergence masyarakat.Secara priori toll road development activities with attractive tariffs for the toll road users are business activities that can be said there are elements of a commercial nature. Actual construction of the toll road is a business that there is a direct link with the economic growth that will affect the general welfare. The principle of public interest is the welfare of society at large. The impact of economic growth and their activities will bring common prosperity, so business needs can be classified as a public interest. The journal is compiled with normative juridical research method, with the approach of legislation and approach to the concept. Based on the survey results revealed that land procurement for toll roads, including the public interest

    Smart Home automation is increasingly gaining popularity among current applications of Internet of Things (IoT) due to the convenience and facilities it provides to the home owners. Sensors are employed within the home appliances via wireless connectivity to be accessible remotely by home owners to operate these devices. With the exponential increase of smart home IoT devices in the marketplace such as door locks, light bulbs, power switches etc, numerous security concerns are arising due to limited storage and processing power of such devices, making these devices vulnerable to several attacks. Due to this reason, security implementations in the deployment of these devices has gained popularity among researchers as a critical research area. Moreover, the adoption of traditional security schemes has failed to address the unique security concerns associated with these devices. Blockchain, a decentralised database based on cryptographic techniques, is gaining enormous attention to assure security of IoT systems. The blockchain framework within an IoT system is a fascinating substitute to the traditional centralised models, which has some significant concerns in fulfilling the demand of smart homes security. In this article, we aim to examine the security of smart homes by instigating the adoption of blockchain and exploring some of the currently proposed smart home architectures using blockchain technology. To present our findings, we describe a simple secure smart home framework based on a refined version of blockchain called Consortium blockchain. We highlight the limitations and opportunities of adopting such an architecture. We further evaluate our model and conclude with the results by designing an experimental testbed using a few household IoT devices commonly available in the marketplace. © 2013 IEEE
