An Approach for Human Gesture Recognition

Varun Dhawan · November 2013 · pp. 04-06

Gesture recognition is a topic in computer science and language technology with the goal of interpreting human gestures via mathematical algorithms. Gestures can originate from any bodily motion or state but commonly originate from the face or hand. Current focuses in the field include emotion recognition from the face and hand gesture recognition. Many approaches have been made using cameras and computer vision algorithms to interpret sign language. . Page(s): 04-06 Date of Publication: November 2013

Security in Ad Hoc Networks

Kamal, Dinesh Kumar, Kanishka Raheja · November 2013 · pp. 07-17

In ad hoc networks the communicating nodes do not necessarily rely on a fixed infrastructure, which sets new challenges for the necessary security architecture they apply. In addition, as ad hoc networks are often designed for specific environments and may have to operate with full availability even in difficult conditions, security solutions applied in more traditional networks may not directly be suitable for pro- tecting them. A short literature study over papers on ad hoc networking shows that many of the new generation ad hoc networking proposals are not yet able to address the security problems and they face. Environment-specific implications on the re- quired approaches in implementing security in such dynamically changing networks have not yet fully realized.

Design of Brushless Permanent Magnet Generators for Use in Small Renewable Energy Systems

Kundan Kumar, Mahaveer Singh, Shashikant Mishra, Anil Kumar Choudhary · November 2013 · pp. 18-23

This paper reviews some of the arrangements and connection requirements for a permanent-magnet generator. It illustrates the importance of winding reactance minimization when using a diode bridge rectifier. It uses modern CAD methods to design a small PM generator and verifies the performance using simulation software. The design is modified to improve the generator size. This highlights that increasing the electrical loading in an attempt to reduce the generator size can lead to a large reduction in power factor, where a controlled rectifier would have to be used instead of a diode bridge rectifier.

Social Media Impact on Small Medium Enterprises

Vikas Somani, Neetu Ranawat · November 2013 · pp. 24-33

Social Media sites such as blogs and social networks permit people to form connections with other users and brands and share content such as messages, news, video and photos. Sites such as Facebook, Twitter and YouTube have knowledgeable unprecedented growth over the last few years and are some of the most talked about destinations on the web. Social media offers an opportunity to connect and interact with your customers, analysis about your product, promote your brand and drive traffic to your website. Getting involved in social media can also create a more human face to your business. The companies which have not realized the role of brands in global competition for the past two decades has lost some of their market power and also lost the customers. Today, the companies producing technology or analytics products really need "branding" as a key in order to differentiate themselves from their global challengers. Therefore, the companies focusing on producing innovative and technology products should invest on "branding" and should implement an effective "brand management" strategy.

A Overview on Multicast Routing Protocols for Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks

Kamal, Dinesh Kumar, Kanishka Raheja · November 2013 · pp. 39-50

A Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) is composed of Mobile Nodes (MNs) without any infrastructure. MNs self-organize to form a network over radio links. In this environment, multicast routing protocols are faced with the challenge of producing multi-hop routing under host mobility and bandwidth constraint. Multicast routing plays a significant role in MANETs. In recent years, various multicast routing protocols with distinguishing feature have been newly proposed. In order to provide a comprehensive understanding of these multicast routing protocols designed for MANETs and pave the way for the further research, a survey of the multicast routing protocols is discussed in detail in this paper. Qualitatively, based on their primary multicast routing selection principle, we show that all these protocols could be placed under one of two broad routing selection categories: multicast routing based on application independence and multicast routing based on application dependence.

Formal Methods for the Development of Smart Card Security Applications

Neha Chopra, Mamta Garg · November 2013 · pp. 61-65

Security over the years has been a source of concern to organizations and companies. This has caused quite a significant amount of capital being budgeted for improvements on security systems, simply because it has been discovered that the access control system mechanism is an important part of an organisation. One of the important security systems in building security is door access control. The door access control is a physical security that assures the security of a building by limiting access to the building to specific people and by keeping records of such entries With the emergence of smart cards, industry has become more interested in techniques to establish the correctness and security of the applications developed. Typical smart card applications like door locks, electronic purses and health care information holders contain privacy-sensitive data. This paper does not deal with security aspects like data leakage, but investigates functional behavior and possible abnormalities such as null pointer exceptions. Proper functional behavior and safety properties are a first step towards secure applications. This paper provides a general introduction to the state-of-the-art of formal methods for the development of safety-critical systems. The idea is to combine two program verification approaches: the functional verification at the source code level and the verification of high level properties on a formal model built from the program and its specification. For functional specification we have used PROMELA and for verification SPIN is used in this paper. Page(s): 61-65 Date of Publication: November 2013

An Outline Of Big Data Tools & Technologies

Dinesh Kumar, Kamal, Kanishka Raheja · November 2013 · pp. 66-71

Many of the latest big data technologies are developed by big data startups from around the world that have found a way to deal with the vast amounts of data. They have developed disruptive big data technology that can be used by organizations to obtain valuable insights and turn data into information and wisdom. Of course, also the large existing IT players have developed substantial amounts of big data technology in the recent years. Especially large corporations that want an all-inclusive package installed use those technologies. There are also many different types of analysis that these startups perform and each will have a different impact or result. Some technologies integrate data from different sources directly into a platform, skipping the need for additional data warehousing, while being able to deliver real-time interactive charts that are easy to interact with or to understand. These PaaS (Platform as a service) or DaaS (Data as a Service) solutions allow end-users to work with the data without requiring technical knowledge. There is unanimous agreement that big data is revolutionizing commerce in the 21st century. When it comes to business, big data offers unprecedented insight, improved decision-making and untapped sources of profit. Sometimes, ad hoc tools and applications are the best solution, especially when the objective is to provide information for very specific requirements.

Time Synchronization in Underwater Sensor Networks Using AODV Routing

Scholar P.G. Kulurkar , Prof. Rajesh K.Shukla · November 2013 · pp. 82-87

Underwater sensor networks stems from the potential to use long term sensing devices to monitor the large mass of oceans on the planet . To accomplish this, the sensor nodes must have the ability to self- configure the communication network and provide energy-efficient data transmission. To this end, researchers have began devising MAC-layer protocols that minimize energy consumption for data transmission. Simulation results have demonstrated that information-directed routing is a significant improvement over a previously research as measured by sensing quality such as localization, tracking accuracy and using Ad hoc network communication quality such as success rate in routing around sensor nodes.
