CCCORE: Cloud Container for Collaborative Research

Cloud-based research collaboration platforms render scalable, secure and inventive environments that enabled academic and scientific researchers to share research data, applications and provide access to high- performance computing resources. Dynamic allocation of resources according to the unpredictable needs of applications used by researchers is a key challenge in collaborative research environments. We propose the design of Cloud Container based Collaborative Research (CCCORE) framework to address dynamic resource provisioning according to the variable workload of compute and data-intensive applications or analysis tools used by researchers. Our proposed approach relies on–demand, customized containerization and comprehensive assessment of resource requirements to achieve optimal resource allocation in a dynamic collaborative research environment. We propose algorithms for dynamic resource allocation problem in a collaborative research environment, which aim to minimize finish time, improve throughput and achieve optimal resource utilization by employing the underutilized residual resources

Economic Analysis on the Hatchery Technology and growout of Pearl Spot (Etroplus suratensis)

“Karimeen’’, which is also known as 'Peari spot fish’, is one of the most important fish species in Kerala. Even though it was officially announced as the 'State Fish of Kerala' in only the year 2010, karimeen is the most influential fish in the lifestyle of Kerala. Karimeen is highly nutritive as food. Pearl spots have the special ability to live equally in both pure and saline waters. They are mainly found in rivers, ponds, farm fields, canals and estuaries. Karnataka and Orissa are the other major states in India, where karimeen is found. Due to the favouring geographical conditions of the coastlines in Kerala, almost 10 per cent of the local freshwater fish found in Kerala are karimeen. With its increasing demand, the price of the fish variety is also soaring. Apart from the growing demand from local market and domestic tourism sector, the fish is also exported in large quantity to foreign markets as well. Though, Kerala produces 2000 tonnes of Karimeen annually, it is not sufficient to meet the rising demand for 'Kerala Karimeen' inside and outside the state. This paper presents the different package of practices of karimeen farming and analyses the economics of the pearl spot hatchery technology and farming in cages and farms involving monoculture and polyculture. The analysis in d ic a te s the economic viability of pearl spot as a candidate species for farming in Kerala, which could provide alternate vocation and good remuneration to the fishers

<i>ansa</i>-Ferrocene-Incorporated Calixpyrroles and Calixphyrins: Syntheses and Spectral/Structural Characterization

The syntheses and spectral/structural characterization of <i>ansa</i>-ferrocene-incorporated <i>normal</i> calixphyrins and <i>core-modified</i> calixpyrroles and calixphyrins are reported. Acid-promoted dehydrative condensation of 1,1′-bis­(dimethylpyrrolylmethyl)­ferrocene and 2,5-bis­(dimethylhydroxymethyl)­thiophene/furan yielded <i>ansa</i>-ferrocene-based <i>core-modified</i> calixpyrroles, while acid-catalyzed dehydrative condensation of 1,1′-bis­(diphenylpyrrolylmethyl)­ferrocene with the aryl aldehydes and 2,5-bis­(phenylhydroxymethyl)­thiophene followed by DDQ oxidation resulted in the formation of <i>ansa</i>-ferrocene-appended <i>normal</i> and <i>core-modified</i> calixphyrins, respectively. The newly synthesized macrocycles were characterized by FAB-MS, NMR, and UV–vis spectral analyses and finally confirmed by single-crystal X-ray structural analysis. All these studies clearly revealed the introduction of ferrocene in the main framework of the corresponding macrocycles in an <i>ansa</i>-type way. The <i>core-modified</i> calixpyrroles adopt a 1,3-alternate conformation, while the corresponding calixphyrins maintained partial planarity along the tripyrrin plane due to the presence of <i>meso</i> sp² carbon and generated curved staircase conformation. In addition to the intramolecular hydrogen-bonding interactions, calixphyrins generate self-assembled dimers, one- and two-dimensional supramolecular assemblies through intermolecular hydrogen bonding in the solid state
