    The Sangam literature is of great help in understanding the living conditions of the ancient Tamil people. The Sangam literature is divided into ten songs and eight kinds. The eight volume consists of eight books referred to as eight sums. It is a collection of books compiled by poets who have sung eight volumes of books at different times. Of these, the best epithet 'good' is distinguished by the small sum. This booklet consists of 401 verses consisting of a four-step small and eight-foot-barreled book. It was compiled by 'Puriko'. Among these, the poet who sang the praises of God was Perundevanar who sang Bharatham. Both songs 307 and 391 are nine-footed songs. In this short volume, poets who are distinguished by parables are also included. In this short volume, this article deals with the ideas of good ideas

    Hospitality is one of the best virtues of tamils. One of the livelihoods of human beings is food. Not all worldly beings live without food. Food is not limited to eating but is a symbol of a society. It would not be an exaggeration to say that hospitality is the reason for this. The system of hospitality is based on the culture of the species of the respective land. Food is an important part of the life environment. The purpose of this article is to explain the characteristics of hospitality in Kurunthogai

    Popular matchings with two-sided preferences and one-sided ties

    We are given a bipartite graph G=(AB,E)G = (A \cup B, E) where each vertex has a preference list ranking its neighbors: in particular, every aAa \in A ranks its neighbors in a strict order of preference, whereas the preference lists of bBb \in B may contain ties. A matching MM is popular if there is no matching MM' such that the number of vertices that prefer MM' to MM exceeds the number of vertices that prefer MM to~MM'. We show that the problem of deciding whether GG admits a popular matching or not is NP-hard. This is the case even when every bBb \in B either has a strict preference list or puts all its neighbors into a single tie. In contrast, we show that the problem becomes polynomially solvable in the case when each bBb \in B puts all its neighbors into a single tie. That is, all neighbors of bb are tied in bb's list and bb desires to be matched to any of them. Our main result is an O(n2)O(n^2) algorithm (where n=ABn = |A \cup B|) for the popular matching problem in this model. Note that this model is quite different from the model where vertices in BB have no preferences and do not care whether they are matched or not.Comment: A shortened version of this paper has appeared at ICALP 201

    Maximum Cardinality Popular Matchings in Strict Two-sided Preference Lists

    No full text
    We consider the problem of computing a maximum cardinality {\em popular} matching in a bipartite graph G = (\A\cup\B, E) where each vertex u \in \A\cup\B ranks its neighbors in a strict order of preference. This is the same as an instance of the {\em stable marriage} problem with incomplete lists. A matching MM^* is said to be popular if there is no matching MM such that more vertices are better off in MM than in MM^*. \smallskip Popular matchings have been extensively studied in the case of one-sided preference lists, i.e., only vertices of \A have preferences over their neighbors while vertices in \B have no preferences; polynomial time algorithms have been shown here to determine if a given instance admits a popular matching or not and if so, to compute one with maximum cardinality. It has very recently been shown that for two-sided preference lists, the problem of determining if a given instance admits a popular matching or not is NP-complete. However this hardness result assumes that preference lists have {\em ties}. When preference lists are {\em strict}, it is easy to show that popular matchings always exist since stable matchings always exist and they are popular. But the complexity of computing a maximum cardinality popular matching was unknown. In this paper we show an O(mn)O(mn) algorithm for this problem, where n = |\A| + |\B| and m=Em = |E|

    Water Pollution In India: An Overview

    Most ancient civilizations grew along the banks of rivers. Even today, millions of people all over the world live on the banks of rivers and depend on them for their survival. All of us have seen a river large or small either flowing through our town or somewhere else. Rivers are nothing more than surface water flowing down from a higher altitude to a lower altitude due to the pull of gravity. One river might have its source in a glacier another in a spring or a lake. Rivers carry dissolved minerals organic compounds, small grains of sand gravel and other material as they flow downstream. Rivers begin as small streams which grow wider as smaller streams and rivers join them along their course across the land. Eventually they flow into seas or oceans. Unfortunately most of the world’s major rivers are heavily polluted. The pollution of environment is the gift of the Industrial revolution prior to this the agrarian cultures created significant environment deforestation and overgrazing. The Environmental degradation is a byproduct of modern civilization. Water Pollution is a major global problem which requires on going evaluation and revision of water resource policy at all levels. It has been suggested that water pollution is the leading worldwide cause of deaths and diseases and that it accounts for the deaths of more than 14,000 people daily. An estimated 580 people in India die of water pollution related illness every day

    ANTIOXIDANT EFFECT OF POLYHERBAL FORMULATION IN ISOPRENALINE HYDROCHLORIDE INDUCED MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION IN RATS

    Objective: Myocardial infarction (MI) continues to be a major public health problem in the world. The prepared polyherbal formulation (PHF) exhibit cardioprotective effects by several mechanisms. The objective of the research was to evaluate the antioxidant effect of a polyherbal formulation in isoprenaline hydrochloride (ISO) induced myocardial infarction in rats.Methods: Oxidative stress and myocardial infarction was induced by administration of isoprenaline hydrochloride (25 mg/kg) for 2 d. The degree of protection was determined by measuring the levels of lipid peroxidation (LPO), enzymatic antioxidants (superoxide dismutase-SOD, Catalase, Glutathione peroxidase) and non-enzymatic antioxidants (Vitamin C, E and reduced glutathione-GSH).Results: Two different doses (250 mg and 500 mg/kg body wt) of the formulation was used to prove the cardioprotective effect. Pretreatment with polyherbal formulation significantly (P<0.05) lowered LPO and elevated the enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidants in heart homogenate.Conclusion: The polyherbal formulation exhibited cardioprotective activity, which could be attributed to its antioxidant activity.Â

    An Improved SPICE Model for MEMS Based Capacitive Accelerometers

    An improved electrical equivalent circuit for a capacitive MEMS accelerometer, incorporating temperature, pressure and squeezed film effects is reported. The circuit model corresponds to a single degree of freedom (SDOF) vibrating system, including dominant micro physical mechanisms. Static, transient and frequency response analysis are carried out at temperature and pressure ranges of 100 K to 400 K and 30 to 3000 Pa respectively. The effect of these parameters on the resonance frequency, peak displacement and settling time of the accelerometer are determined. Simulations are performed using PSpice® circuit simulator.
