Vocational education and fisheries
Vocational courses in fisheries are offered in 4 states in India. The technologies in fisheries developed offer good scope for vocational training for self employment. There is an urgent need to have radical revision of the course content to make the students vocationally competent
Subsidiary Characters in Select William Gillette’s Play
Contemporary literature and recent media studies have taken so much from the genre called “Sensational Novels”, that even though this genre emerged in the late nineteenth century, it became hugely popular in the twentieth century, and also drew the attention of the present generation. The Detective fiction first presented to the world by Wilkie Collins, was introduced during the time when the concept and performance of the great detective and the sensation genre was blooming. One such work which became popular during that time was the narrative by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle centering on Sherlock Holmes. The aim of this paper is to examine the intriguing characters which Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and William Gillette constructed in the play of Sherlock Holmes. This consultant detective laid its impact on the readers in the nineteenth century, when it was first published, but even in the present times it had not lost its charms. The character of Sherlock Holmes became a sensational figure, due to which it had been the center of research by the scholars; however, the minor characters were studied seldomly. The paper with the help of Narratology, seeks to examine the William Gillette’s play; wherein, to show that the minor characters are essential for the development of the main protagonist, the narrative of the subsidiary characters will be analysed
Impromptu Deployment of Wireless Relay Networks: Experiences Along a Forest Trail
We are motivated by the problem of impromptu or as- you-go deployment of
wireless sensor networks. As an application example, a person, starting from a
sink node, walks along a forest trail, makes link quality measurements (with
the previously placed nodes) at equally spaced locations, and deploys relays at
some of these locations, so as to connect a sensor placed at some a priori
unknown point on the trail with the sink node. In this paper, we report our
experimental experiences with some as-you-go deployment algorithms. Two
algorithms are based on Markov decision process (MDP) formulations; these
require a radio propagation model. We also study purely measurement based
strategies: one heuristic that is motivated by our MDP formulations, one
asymptotically optimal learning algorithm, and one inspired by a popular
heuristic. We extract a statistical model of the propagation along a forest
trail from raw measurement data, implement the algorithms experimentally in the
forest, and compare them. The results provide useful insights regarding the
choice of the deployment algorithm and its parameters, and also demonstrate the
necessity of a proper theoretical formulation.Comment: 7 pages, accepted in IEEE MASS 201
Three-Dimensional Flow Analysis over Canard Configuration in Turbulence Model
The canard has been seen as an ominous aerodynamic object for ages this paper is to shed some more light on the effects of canard configuration on the aircraft’s wings. This flow-field analysis is thus being done using a turbulence model solution to take into the effects of a real-time environment where the vortices from the canard are captured more accurately. The analysis has been done meticulously and made to be as error-free as possible under the guidance of Dr. Yagya Dutta Dwivedi
Field of a Radiation Distributuion
General relativistic spherically symmetric matter field with a vanishing
stress energy scalar is analyzed. Procedure for generating exact solutions of
the field equations for such matter distributions is given. It is further
pointed out that all such type I spherically symmetric fields with distinct
eignvalues in the radial two space can be treated as a mixture of isotropic and
directed radiations. Various classes of exact solutions are given. Junction
conditions for such a matter field to the possible exterior solutions are also
discussed.Comment: Latex file, 13 pages, no figures. Accepted for publication in Phys.
