Securing Internet Protocol (IP) Storage: A Case Study
Storage networking technology has enjoyed strong growth in recent years, but
security concerns and threats facing networked data have grown equally fast.
Today, there are many potential threats that are targeted at storage networks,
including data modification, destruction and theft, DoS attacks, malware,
hardware theft and unauthorized access, among others. In order for a Storage
Area Network (SAN) to be secure, each of these threats must be individually
addressed. In this paper, we present a comparative study by implementing
different security methods in IP Storage network.Comment: 10 Pages, IJNGN Journa
The characteristic tranquility of mudbanks. A clue to form them artiflcially-a hypothesis
The natural format ion of mudbanks (Chagaras) at certain locations along the Kera'a coast during
The southwest monsoon is a well known phenomenon, an insight into the scientific reasons of the
Varying tranquility of a spectrum of mud banks gives a clue as to how to form them artificially. The
Clue, born of experience in the fields is described here. With appropriate engineering design of
Devices the hypothesis may prove to be a useful proposition serving the cause of coastal fishermen

Ocean Currents
Looking at the sea one sees the ripples on the surface and the rolling waves, but a
more keen observant sees that more portions on the shore arc submerged at times and exposed
at other times owing to the rise and fall of sea surface, the tidal influence brought
about by the gravitational pull of the sun and moon on the oceans. What one fails to
notice is that the body of water is in constant flowing motion; this becomes obvious when
one watches some debris floating on the surface. This movement of water is known as
тАвcurrent. Some of these currents are so enormous in extent that the Amazon could be
found a rivulet. The speed of movement varies from a few meters per hour to several
knots
Determination of harmonic coefficients without the aid of conventional analytical schemes
Harmonic analysis converts periodic function into waves of primary frequency and higher
harmonics. Analytical schemes, in the past, were developed to determine the harmonic
coefficients. As all the waves at a time pass through each of the ordinates which are at their
respective positions along the primary period, the arithmatic sum of the amplitudes put together
at the time of passing through an ordinate is made equal to that ordinate, or atleast in the
practical way, the sum of the amplitudes at each ordinate tends to be equal to that ordinate.
This view makes it possible to find the harmonic coefficients from the selected ordinates. And
thus, the coefficients could be directly determined without adopting any analytical scheme.
The new method of detemining harmonic coefficients is applied to SST observations of the
Bay of Port Blair. The SST observations were conducted from on board FORV Sugar Sampada
during September 29th (18 Hrs) to 24 Hrs. on 30th September, 1988 at hourly intervals. The
theoretically evaluated SST values from harmonic coefficients were found to be closer to the
observed values
Characteristics of neritic waters along the west coast of India with respect to upwelling, dissolved oxygen & zooplankton biomass
Assuming temperature of the water layer at 50' m depth along the shore as an inverse index of upwelling. zooplankton
biomass of the pelagic waters off the west coast of India in relatitm to upwelling intensi ty is studied. Productive
value of upwelling, is reflected in the abundance of biomass of the total zooplankton. At mu('h higher intensity
of upwelling, the waters are very much depleted with respect to dissolved oxygen. Temporal and spatial lag
of occurrence of zooplankton with upwelling is noticed in the analysis. Upwelling and plankton production take
place earlier in the southern part of the coastline than in the northern
Studies of fisheries with the causative environmental factors - optimum utilisation of FORV Sagar SampadaтАЩs capabilities
Retaining the multidisciplinary character of research, FORV Sagar Sampada
cruises got evolved into species-wise and sector-wise investigations to obtain complete
cyclic pictures of species and sectors over seasons round the year for the EEZ
waters of India. The paper aims at further transformation of the system of her cruises
into problem-oriented investigations. Specific problems in pelagic fisheries of the
waters around India are reasoned out for effective utilization of the unique sea-lab,
the FORV Sagar Sampada. A rethinking is needed in planning and implementation
of cruise programmes towards achieving realistic synthesis of studies of fisheries
with the causative environmental factors
Active cell hypothesis
In some waters (water masses, in general) and in the sea, phytoplankton cell count is more but primary production is less. It is the opposite in some other water masses where grazing by zooplankton and fish is attributed for the less count. More count and less production result in poor quality of water
Studies of upwelling along the West Coast of India using geopotential anomaly
As summer is the season of mixing: and winter the season of stratification in the Arabian
Sea along the west coast of India, summer minus winter dynamic depth. which takes into account
the integrated effects of temperature, salinity and pressure is considered to reveal regional
differences of the intensity of upwelling: relative to winter situation. The areas of intensive
upwelling a r e thus identified. Stabilities of water layers during summer are examined with
respect to those during winter
Some three dimensional elasto-dynamic solutions of layered shells
Three dimensional solutions for natural frequencies and mode shapes of layered composite shells obtained by using the finite layer method, are presented in this paper. Higher order theories for laminated shells are discussed
Conversion of Dynamic High Pressures from Air to Water for a Spherical TNT Charge
A numerical method has been applied to convert the dynamic high pressures from air-to-water for a spherical TNT charge. Standard equation of scaling law in air for TNT has been utilised to make the necessary conversions. The investigations have been made by taking into consideration the ambient pressure values for the two media. The calculations have been performed under the scaled distances to get better results. Experimental measurements using indigenous blast pressure gauge have been undertaken by detonating spherical charges of TNT under the same scaled distances in water to check the correctness of results and direct application of this method. A fairly close agreement between the theoretically computed and the experimental values of the dynamic high pressures shows the practical utility of this approach in that it enables an estimate of the experimental shock wave pressures, without conducting underwater experiments
