    In day-to- day life we hear about many tamil fishermen being caught and put under srilankan custody and even killed. The sea border between the countries is not easily identifiable, which is the main reason for this cross border cruelty. Here we have designed a system using embedded system which protects the fishermen by notifying the country border to them by using Global Positioning System (GPS) and Global system for mobile communication (GSM). We use GPS receiver to find the current location of the fishing boat or vessel. Using GPS, we can find the current latitude and longitude values and is sent to the microcontroller unit. Then the controller unit finds the current locationby comparing the present latitude and longitudinal values with the predefined value. Then from the result of the comparison, this system aware the fishermenthat they are about to reach the nautical border. The area is divided into four zones- normal zone, warning zone, zone near to restricted zone and finally the restricted zone. If the boat is in normal area, then the LCDdisplays normal zone. Thus they can make it clear that the boat is in normal area. In case it moves further and reaches the warning zone,the LCD displays warning zone. If the fisherman ignores the warning or fail to see the display and movefurther, and if the boat enters the zone nearer to the restricted zone the alarm will turn on and the speed of the boat engine automatically gets controlled by 50%. If the fisherman did not take any reaction about the alarm and move further, then the boat will enter into the restricted zone, the alarm continues to beep as before, and once it touches the restricted zone, the boat engine gets off by the control of fuel supply to engine

    Mol­ecules of the title compound, C13H13N3, are essentially planar (r.m.s. deviation for all non-H atoms = 0.054 Å). The dihedral angle between the two aromatic rings is 6.33 (5)°. In the crystal, pairs of centrosymmetrically related mol­ecules are linked through N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds, forming N—H⋯N dimers with graph-set motif R22(8)

    Turmeric is one of the potential spice crops having importance in culinary, colouring in textiles and therapeutic in pharmaceutical industries. The present investigation was carried out to estimate the genetic diversity of 21 turmeric genotypes representing different geographical locations of India. The principal component (PC) analysis indicated that the most of the variation among the genotypes was contributed by the first two principal components (61.38%), which were largely governed by plant height, number of leaves per plant, leaf lamina length, leaf area, total leaf area, collar girth and weight of the mother rhizomes per clump. These traits showed high positive correlation with first two PCs and influenced significantly for grouping. Based on PC correlation analysis, it is evident that morphological and yield attributing traits of PC1 and PC2 are influenced and contributed for most of the variation among the genotypes. The cluster analysis revealed that the 21 genotypes fall into five clusters, and among them most divergent with distinct genotypes were cluster I, III and cluster IV. However, IISR Pragati, Rajendra Sonali and NDH 8 were found superior for fresh rhizome yield and Acc. 849 was found unique with robust mother rhizome. The present study contributes to the knowledge of genetic diversity and defining strategies for yield improvement in turmeric

    In the title compound, C20H20N4O2, the piperidine ring adopts a distorted boat conformation. The two phenyl rings form dihedral angles of 82.87 (1) and 84.40 (1)° with respect to the piperidine ring. The crystal packing is stabilized by inter­molecular C—H⋯O and C—H⋯N inter­actions

    All the non-H atoms of the title compound, C10H10N2O2, are nearly in the same plane with a maximum deviation of 0.093 (1) Å. In the crystal, adjacent mol­ecules are linked by pairs of inter­molecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, generating inversion dimers with R 2 2(14) ring motifs

    Get PDF
    Business plays a vital role in day-to-day life to bring the goods and services to the people. The profit ofa business highly depends on the sales. Forecasting thesales in business is essential since the sales forecast predicts the business performance.Moreover, sales forecasting is an estimation of futuresales in a business based on the past sales data. This forecasting to make better managerial decisions allows in business for improving the performance of the business. Furthermore, the sales forecasting helps to increase the revenue, reduce the operating cost, improve the working capital use, and increase the shareholder�s values. Therefore, this paper presents a sales data forecasting to predict the business performance
