    Literature has been subject to change from time to time, from the Sangam period to this period. People's taste, time, environment, politics, etc. are the reasons for that. Such changing literary forms are called fiction literature. Short stories and novels, which highlight people's beliefs, language, religion, life, culture, etc., belong to this type. The purpose of this study is to highlight the life values of the tribal people who have been included in the novel 'Athangarai Oram', written by V.

    The present trend suggests that students are pressurized by the society to select an occupation of their choice that can fetch easy money. That is why there is a heavy rush towards medicine, nursing, para-medical and engineering streams. This often negates the potential of each student and suppresses his or her innate caliber that negatively affects the prospects of the individual and society. The choice of occupation is one of the very important decisions a person makes in life. Psychologically each student has her/his own interests, aptitudes, attitudes, aspirations etc. It is a fact that parents, relatives, teachers, friends, media and society can influence the students in the modification of interests, aptitudes, attitudes, aspirations etc. If a person gets her/his education on their preferred vocation, he/she can get job satisfaction from the vocation and the individual shall be well placed. Aspirations add to the efficiency of the person by bringing out the best in him on the job

    In this paper, we propose to solve the flow shop scheduling problem using Branch and Bound method. This paper presents an algorithm with the help of branch and bound approach for a flow shop scheduling problems consisting of 4 jobs and 4 machines in which the processing time as Neutrosophic trapezoidal fuzzy numbers which are further converted in to crisp value using graded mean ranking method. Numerical example is given to illustrate the study of solving flow shop scheduling under Neutrosophic trapezoidal fuzzy number using branch and bound technique

    An M/G/1 Queue with Server Breakdown and Multiple Working Vavation

    This paper deals with the steady state behavior of an M=G=1 multiple working vacation queue with server breakdown. The server works with different service times rather than completely stopping service during a vacation. Both service times in a vacation period and in a regular service period are assumed to be generally distributed random variables. The system may breakdown at random and repair time is arbitrary. Further, just after completion of a customer’s service the server may take a multiple working vacation. Supplementary variable technique is employed to find the probability generating function for the number of customers in the system. The mean number of customers in the system is calculated. Some particular cases of interest are discussed. Numerical results are also presented

    Objective: Tabernaemontana divaricata (Td) is commonly used plants for the treatment of inflammatory, anticancer, and diabetics. The main objective of this study is to assess the antitumor and antioxidant activity of Td in mice model.Methods: Antitumor activity of TdPf extract (52 ”g/ml) is evaluated against Dalton's lymphoma ascites (DLA) tumor mice. After 24 hrs of tumor inoculation, the extract is administered daily for 15 and 60 days. After administration of the lost dose followed by 18 hrs fasting, mice are sacrificed for observation of antitumor activity. Antitumor activity is assessed by monitoring the liver marker enzyme, lipid peroxidation effect on antioxidant enzyme levels, and histopathological evidence.Results: The results showed that the protein extract of Td animals restored the antioxidant enzymes when compared to the mice of the DLA control group.Conclusion: The findings indicate that the extract of plant protein has antitumor activity by preventing the lipid peroxidation and thereby promoting the antioxidant systems in DLA induced mice. And hence, it is evident that these extract could be a natural anticancer agent for the human health.Keywords: Dalton's lymphoma ascites, Antitumor, Tabernaemontana divaricata, Lipid peroxidation antioxidant
