Redundancy Allocation of Partitioned Linear Block Codes
Most memories suffer from both permanent defects and intermittent random
errors. The partitioned linear block codes (PLBC) were proposed by Heegard to
efficiently mask stuck-at defects and correct random errors. The PLBC have two
separate redundancy parts for defects and random errors. In this paper, we
investigate the allocation of redundancy between these two parts. The optimal
redundancy allocation will be investigated using simulations and the simulation
results show that the PLBC can significantly reduce the probability of decoding
failure in memory with defects. In addition, we will derive the upper bound on
the probability of decoding failure of PLBC and estimate the optimal redundancy
allocation using this upper bound. The estimated redundancy allocation matches
the optimal redundancy allocation well.Comment: 5 pages, 2 figures, to appear in IEEE International Symposium on

The impact of globalisation on the role of women in the economy – a case study of India with special focus on Tamilnadu
The status of any section of population in a society is intimately connected with its economic position. The development strategy which neglects the need for enhancing the role of women cannot lead to comprehensive socio – economic development. Globalisation has introduced enormous economic opportunities for women, but they are associated with mounting threats. The research paper intends to comprehend and give an an overview on the impact of globalisation in current scenario on women‘s employment in India with special focus on Tamilnadu. The objective of the study is to highlight the Gender gap and Gender divide through the sectoral participation of women. Analytical methodology is followed to give a critical note on the contribution of women in the socio-economic transformation of the state. Besides, both qualitative and quantitative analysis on the economic contribution of women is adopted in this study to analyse the implications of Globalisation
Diversity of true mangroves and their associates in the Kundapura region, Udupi district, Karnataka, Southwest coast of India
The present study documents the diversity of true mangroves and their associates, in four selected sites of Kundapura, Udupi district, Karnataka, Southwest coast of India, for a period of two years from April-2010 to March-2012. These places are far from one another and the mangrove species diversity varies from one place to another, due to factors such as climate, tidal factors and anthropogenic pressures. Nine true mangrove floral species belonging to six families and ten associated floral species belonging to nine families were identified along the inundated and the adjacent regions at the study sites. This write up discusses the need of present study is to gain knowledge about the mangrove flora in order help conservation of mangrove ecosystem
Economic empowerment of women in Tamilnadu : prospects and problems in the current scenario
Empowerment is a process which aimed at changing the nature and direction of systematic
method that marginalize women and other disadvantaged sections of the society. Empowerment
can serve as a powerful instrument for women to achieve social and economic mobility and
acquire power and status in society. The status of any section of population in a society is
intimately connected with its economic position. The development strategy which neglects
the need for enhancing the role of women cannot lead to comprehensive socio – economic
development. Globalisation has introduced enormous economic opportunities for women,
but they are associated with mounting threats. This paper will give an overview on the
economic empowerment of women and its impact on Tamilnadu
