THE COMPARATIVE STUDY OF ADRAKADI QUATH SIDHA DUGDHA AND ASHWAGANDHA CHURNA IN THE MANAGEMENT OF ARSHAS (HEMORRHOIDS)

Arshas (hemorrhoids) occurs mainly due to the vitiation of Agni, which leads to Malavasthambha (constipation) and Vimarga gamana of Apana Vayu. So obviously, the drug, which has capacity to streamline the vitiated Agni and regulate the Anulomagati of Apana Vayu, will be the drug of choice in treating Arshas. Adrakadi quath sidha dugdha possesses Ushna, Tikshna Dipana, Pachana and Vatanulomana property. Envisaging these points an attempt has been put forth to evaluate the efficacy of Adrakadi quath sidha dugdha in patients suffering from Arshas and the subject entitled The Comparative study of Adrakadi quath sidha dugdha and Ashwagandha churna in the management of Arshas w.s.r. to hemorrhoids have been selected for study. Total 60 patients of Arshas were registered for the present study. The selected patients were distributed randomly into two groups. Group A: 30 patients were treated with Adrakadi quath sidha dugdha 40 ml twice a day with water, after food for 15 days. Group B: 30 patients were treated with Ashwagandha churna 2 gm twice a day with water for 15 days. The observations and results obtained from clinical study have been analysed statistically to evaluate the significance of the curative properties of therapies

Integrated approach for efficient power consumption and resource allocation in MIMO-OFDMA

The growing interest towards wireless communication advancement with smart devices has provided the desired throughput of wireless communication mechanisms. But, attaining high-speed data packets amenities is the biggest issue in different multimedia applications. Recently, OFDM has come up with the useful features for wireless communication however it faces interference issues at carrier level (intercarrier interferences). To resolve these interference issues in OFDM, various existing mechanisms were utilized cyclic prefix, but it leads to redundancy in transmitted data. Also, the transmission of this redundant data can take some more power and bandwidth. All these limitations factors can be removed from a parallel cancellation mechanism. The integration of parallel cancellation and Convolution Viterbi encoding and decoding in MIMO-OFDMA will be an effective solution to have high data rate which also associations with the benefits of both the architectures of MIMO and OFDMA modulation approaches. This paper deals with this integrated mechanism for efficient resource allocation and power consumption. For performance analysis, MIMO-OFDMA system is analyzed with three different approaches likeMIMO-OFDM system without parallel cancellation (MIMO-OFDMA-WPC), MIMO-OFDMA System with parallel cancellation (MIMO-OFDMA-PC) and proposed IMO-OFDMA system with parallel cancellation and Convolution Viterbi encoding/decoding (pMIMO-OFDMA-PC &CVed) for 4x4 transmitter and receiver. Through performance analysis, it is found that the proposed system achieved better resource allocation (bandwidth) with high data rate by minimized BER rate and achieved least power consumption with least BER

Comparative Analysis of Relational Keyword search Systems

Today with the growth of the Internet, there has been a big growth in the number of users who want to access information without having a detailed knowledge of the query languages; even simple query languages are designed for them that are too complicated for people who dont have sufficient knowledge of language. A large number of methods and prototypes also proposed and implemented, but, there remains a several limitations. So that in this paper, we are overcoming the limitations of previous methods. In literature review indicating that existing systems are using document order so that they are not providing better ranking of keywords. In this paper we are using Top-K based algorithm, ranking function and presenting evaluation of performance of relational keyword search systems. top-k query processing provides highest ranked search results

A Novel Technique to Enhance the Lifetime of Wireless Sensor Networks through Software Realization

In the most of the real world scenarios, wireless sensor networks are used. Some of the major tasks of these types of networks is to sense some information and sending it to monitoring system or tracking some activity etc. In such applications, the sensor nodes are deployed in large area and in considerably large numbers [1]-[3]. Each of these node will be having constrained resources whether it might be energy, memory or processing capability. Energy is the major resource constraint in these types of networks. Hence enough care to be taken in all aspects such that energy can be used very efficiently. Different Activities which will be taking place in a sensor node are sensing, radio operations and receiving and computing. Among all these operations, radio consumes maximum power. Hence there is a need of reducing the power consumption in such radio operations. In the proposed work a software module is developed which will reduce the number of transmissions done to the base station. The work compares the consecutively sensed data and if these data are same then the old data then the old data will be retained. In other case the newly sensed data will be sent to the sink node. This technique reduces the number of data transmissions in a significant way. With the reduced number of transmissions, the energy saved in each node will be more, which will increase the lifetime of the entire network
