Genomic DNA Analysis Using ANFIS and ANN |
Gene expression is governed by the promoter which frequently appears before its associated gene in DNA sequence. In order to locate a gene in a given sequence, researchers have to find the location of a promoter. Thus, the problem of promoter identification is of major significance within biology. So this issue maintains its importance. In this study, we employ ANN (Artificial Neural Network) and ANFIS (Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System) classifiers to predict promoters of DNA sequences, and evaluate their performances. The obtained results show that the classifiers compete the existing techniques for identifying promoter regions.

Electronic Waste: Emerging Health Threats |
The mammoth growth of waste in general and electronic waste in particular is a growing threat to the health and environmental issues the world is facing today. The electronic waste ( e waste) constitutes around 2.7 to 3 % of the total waste and in majority contains hazardous and toxic elements which have many elements and constituents which when handled carelessly i.e. without proper care and protection will lead to numerous health and environmental problems which can be deadly and endangering the life of living beings. The proper advocacy and information passage to the consumers is day by day becoming utmost urgent requirement. The hazardous effects of the constituents ranges from irritation to development of deadly cancer and is endangering the existence itself. Proper regulation development means and facilities of recycling and disposal are need of hour and time. The threats are numerous and are indicator of concerns is growing requirement. The regulations so far enacted are inadequate and lack from total commitment to deal with the situation. The latest regulations are steps towards betterment but are still far from satisfactory. The global situation of passing the buck is also threat for the developing and underdeveloped countries as the disposal in informal sector is predominant in these areas. The means are minimal and the value of life is valueless and the appropriateness of health facilities is also far from satisfactory. The dependence on developed nations further adds to the problems.

THE VEILED MOTHER?... (A new theory on Passover and Eucharist) |
In Christian theology "Mother Mary" is considered as an ordinary person and not considered as a Divine element. Of course in catholic Institution Mary is respected to some extent but in Protestant, Apostolic churches Bishops and other Pastors are saluted and given more weightage than the "Beloved mother". In this scientific research article it is focused that Mother Mary shall not be neglected in the "Divine plan" of God and shall be considered as "Three – in – one" element in the "Sacramental Journey" and "Redemption Act" of GOD. It is emphasized that "JESUS" and "MARY" Shall be considered as Two Holy elements of the "YOKE" connected to the "HEART" of the "FATHER". This research focused that in Divine plan of God the word "CHRIST" shall be considered as the "FAMILY NAME". "JESUS CHRIST" shall mean JESUS pertains to "CHRIST FAMILY". Further it is emphasized that Christ shall be considered as the 3rd generation family in the total plan of God. Adam, Noah shall be considered as the 1st and 2nd Generation population. In 3rd generation populations Christ shall be considered as the 1st family composed of Three-in-one Divine element.

A statistical study of the helix-coil transition of agarose | ||||||||||||
In this work, we present a systematical of statisticals study of the helix-coil transition of agarose. The statistical study of the agarose gel consists in calculating "the equilibrium constant" which is the ratio of the probability of finding the two conformations and also determining the various rate of the state through the coil-helix transition that is found in the agarose gel for a transition temperature Tt=78.8°C and concentration Cp=15%. According to the experimental study which was made on pure agarose, the variation of the content of helix and the equilibrium constant is given from the law of van't Hoff. For agarose in the independent-residue model, a change in s from 0.978 to 1.021 leads to a change in fh from 0.494 to 0.505. For a 300 residue agarose in the two-state model, the same change in s leads to a change in fh from 0.999 to 0.0291. Finally, the effect of dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) on the helical fraction depending on the temperature is studied, and we discuss the effects of the solvent composition on the helix-coil transition of an agarose chain.

Quick Review of Human Speech Production Mechanism |
This paper is presented to review the human speech production mechanism with an intention to portray different aspects involved in it, right from generation of thought in the mind to the production of sound wave from mouth. Speech production in human beings is a very common phenomenon which is experienced in their day to day life and is also part of speech communication between them. Although, speech production looks very simple from outside but its inside mechanism is very complex. Human being can generate many varieties of sounds whose frequency spectrum as well as the loudness changes very rapidly. This is possible due to the very sharp and precise articulatory movement control of the organs of speech production mechanism. The articulatory movement control is termed as Motor Control and is done by human brain through sensory nerve system connecting brain to the speech production organs such as lungs, vocal chords, tongue, jaw, lips, teeth, larynx etc. It is interesting to learn qualitative and quantitative aspects of the speech production organs for accurate speech analysis and synthesis through modeling. Through this review paper we will be describing in brief the complete speech production mechanism, the details of which are available in the referenced articles.

Scalable and Efficient Strategies for Grid based Location Services for Bandwidth Efficient and Energy Conserving Routing in Mobile Ad hoc Network | ||||||||||||
A Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) is a network topology of choice where autonomous nodes form a collaborative community. Position based routing protocols have been studied extensively over the past years, But how to efficiently provide the location information for nodes and how to control location update frequency is still a challenge. In this paper, we address the problem of maintaining location service and propose an energy aware grid location service which efficiently provide location information and conserve energy extending the lifetime of a MANET. The protocol uses hierarchical grid location service to minimize inevitable superfluous flooding by every node, and prevents location updates and queries from traversing the entire network unnecessarily, hence conserving bandwidth and transmission power.
