Role of Mothers\u27 Nutritional Knowledge, Nutritional Factors on the School Performance

A cross sectional study was carried out to investigate the effects of mothers\u27 nutritional knowledge, health and nutritional factors and socio-economic parameters on school performance among class five students of University Laboratory School, Dhaka. All of the eighty students were selected for this study. This study found there is a strong relationship between mother\u27s knowledge score and school performance. It was found that mothers\u27 knowledge score was responsible for 91.1 percent change in school performance. The mean BMI of the mothers was 20.44. We found that the school performance measured by class roll number of the students is significantly related with mothers BMI. There was an imperfect negative association between socio-economic parameters and school performance. But the relationship between the school performances with socio-economic parameters was strongly significant. This study also observed the relationship between Individual Dietary Diversity Score (IDDS) of respondent and marks achieved in class 4 final exam. It is alarming that consumption percentage were low for eggs (30) and milk and milk products (37.5), but majority of the students who consumed milk and milk products (63.3%) and eggs (66.7%) got the highest marks

Band Limited Signals Observed Over Finite Spatial and Temporal Windows: An Upper Bound to Signal Degrees of Freedom

The study of degrees of freedom of signals observed within spatially diverse broadband multipath fields is an area of ongoing investigation and has a wide range of applications, including characterising broadband MIMO and cooperative networks. However, a fundamental question arises: given a size limitation on the observation region, what is the upper bound on the degrees of freedom of signals observed within a broadband multipath field over a finite time window? In order to address this question, we characterize the multipath field as a sum of a finite number of orthogonal waveforms or spatial modes. We show that (i) the "effective observation time" is independent of spatial modes and different from actual observation time, (ii) in wideband transmission regimes, the "effective bandwidth" is spatial mode dependent and varies from the given frequency bandwidth. These findings clearly indicate the strong coupling between space and time as well as space and frequency in spatially diverse wideband multipath fields. As a result, signal degrees of freedom does not agree with the well-established degrees of freedom result as a product of spatial degrees of freedom and time-frequency degrees of freedom. Instead, analogous to Shannon's communication model where signals are encoded in only one spatial mode, the available signal degrees of freedom in spatially diverse wideband multipath fields is the time-bandwidth product result extended from one spatial mode to finite modes. We also show that the degrees of freedom is affected by the acceptable signal to noise ratio (SNR) in each spatial mode.Comment: Submitted to IEEE Transactions on Signal Processin

Analysis of Degrees of Freedom of Wideband Random Multipath Fields Observed Over Time and Space Windows

In multipath systems, available degrees of freedom can be considered as a key performance indicator, since the channel capacity grows linearly with the available degrees of freedom. However, a fundamental question arises: given a size limitation on the observable region, what is the intrinsic number of degrees of freedom available in a wideband random multipath wavefield observed over a finite time interval? In this paper, we focus on answering this question by modelling the wavefield as a sum of orthogonal waveforms or spatial orders. We show that for each spatial order, (i) the observable wavefield is band limited within an effective bandwidth rather than the given bandwidth and (ii) the observation time varies from the given observation time. These findings show the strong coupling between space and time as well as space and bandwidth. In effect, for spatially diverse multipath wavefields, the classical degrees of freedom result of "time-bandwidth" product does not directly extend to "time-space-bandwidth" product.Comment: 9 pages, 2 figures, Accepted in 2014 IEEE Workshop on Statistical Signal Processin

Pengendalian Internal Pada Perusahaan Start Up

Internal Control System is one of the tools for management to control all operational activities in line to achieve ultimate goals. As a start-up company, internal control is a must. This research conduct to analyzes internal control systems in handling inventory of vegetables and fruit-based on COSO (Committee of Sponsoring Organization) theory. This type of research is a qualitative descriptive approach. Data is obtained through interviews with informants.  The results showed that the company has largely implemented internal controls on vegetable and fruit inventory that according to internal control standards according to COSO. But, it is not fully implemented for environmental control and supervision activities

Bounds On Fuzzy Dominator Chromatic Number of Fuzzy Soft Bipartite Graphs

An FSG GS(T,V) fuzzy’s soft dominator colouring (FSDC) is a suitable Fuzzy Soft Colouring (FSC) where every node of a colour groupis dominated by a vertex of GS(T,V). In the current work, we characterize the sharp bounds for the Fuzzy Dominator Chromatic Number(FDCN) of fuzzy soft bipartite graphs and we present limits on theFDCN of fuzzy soft bipartite graph in terms of the γe(GS(T; V )).Furthermore, we classify fuzzy soft bipartite graphs into three classesbased on FDC

Analysis of Ring Yarn Properties Produced from Different Traveller Brands

A traveller is the tiny but significant part in ring frame in a short staple spinning mill. It is a small portion among all the parts of ring machine. It performs two most significant tasks like twisting without which spun yarn production cannot be imagined, and it aids in the winding of yarn on the cop. The traveller is one of the mechanical reasons for the hairiness properties of yarn. Two yarn of 30’s Ne KH (Card hosiery) was produced by using two same number of the traveller of different brands called Lakshmi Ring Travellers (LRT) and X-AXIS. All the processing parameters remained the same during the production of yarn. After that, Uster Evenness Tester 5 machine was used to determine the yarn properties such as unevenness percentage, imperfection index, hairiness, standard deviation of hairiness, standard deviation of hairiness in reference length 1 meter, and standard deviation of hairiness in reference length 3 meters. The end breakage rate was recorded through whole doff for the duration of the production of yarn in ring section. Statistical analysis used t-test to pair two samples to obtain the means for unevenness percentage, imperfection index, and hairiness. This was accomplished with Microsoft Excel 2013. Lakshmi Ring Travellers indicate better results than X-AXIS traveller. It can be decided from the t- test that there is no significant difference in unevenness and hairiness except imperfection index of two brands
