This document describes a user-based collaborative filtering recommender system using MapReduce and Bloom filters on Hadoop. It aims to solve scalability issues with conventional collaborative filtering. The algorithm partitions user data, then uses mappers to calculate similarities between users, identify neighbors, and make predictions. Reducers collect and output recommendations. Experiments show the MapReduce approach with Bloom filters speeds up recommendations compared to MapReduce alone, and scales linearly as nodes increase. The system provides personalized recommendations for items like movies in large, distributed environments.

An Efficient Frame Embedding Using Haar Wavelet Coefficients And Orthogonal C...IJERA Editor
Digital media, applications, copyright defense, and multimedia security have become a vital aspect of our daily life. Digital watermarking is a technology used for the copyright security of digital applications. In this work we have dealt with a process able to mark digital pictures with a visible and semi invisible hided information, called watermark. This process may be the basis of a complete copyright protection system. Watermarking is implemented here using Haar Wavelet Coefficients and Principal Component analysis. Experimental results show high imperceptibility where there is no noticeable difference between the watermarked video frames and the original frame in case of invisible watermarking, vice-versa for semi visible implementation. The watermark is embedded in lower frequency band of Wavelet Transformed cover image. The combination of the two transform algorithm has been found to improve performance of the watermark algorithm. The robustness of the watermarking scheme is analyzed by means of two distinct performance measures viz. Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR) and Normalized Coefficient (NC).
EM algorithm is a common algorithm in data mining techniques. With the idea of using two iterations of E and M, the algorithm creates a model that can assign class labels to data points. In addition, EM not only optimizes the parameters of the model but also can predict device data during the iteration. Therefore, the paper focuses on researching and improving the EM algorithm to suit the LiDAR point cloud classification. Based on the idea of breaking point cloud and using the scheduling parameter for step E to help the algorithm converge faster with a shorter run time.

The Science Information Network (SINET) is a Japanese academic backbone network for more than 800 universities and research institutions. The characteristic of SINET traffic is that it is enormous and highly variable. In this paper, we present a task-decomposition based anomaly detection of massive and highvolatility session data of SINET. Three main features are discussed: Tash scheduling, Traffic discrimination, and Histogramming. We adopt a task-decomposition based dynamic scheduling method to handle the massive session data stream of SINET. In the experiment, we have analysed SINET traffic from 2/27 to 3/8 and detect some anomalies by LSTM based time-series data processing.

PERFORMANCE EVALUATION OF FUZZY LOGIC AND BACK PROPAGATION NEURAL NETWORK FOR...ijesajournal
ABSTRACT
Fuzzy c-mean is one of the efficient tools used in character recognition. Back propagation neural network is another powerful that may be used in such field. A comparison between fuzzy c-mean and BP neural network classifiers are presented in this research to obtain the performance of both classifiers. The comparison was based on recognition efficiency; this efficiency was evaluated as the ratio of the number of assigned characters with unknown one to the number of character set related to that character. The fuzzy C-mean and BP neural network algorithms were tested on a set of hand written and machine printed dataset named Chars74K dataset using Matlab (2016 b) programming language and the result was that neural network classifier gave 82% recognition efficiency while fuzzy c –mean gave 78%. Neural network classifier is more superior than fuzzy C-mean in recognition due to the limitations of processing time of fuzzy C-mean that requires smaller image size and eventually this will cause less efficiency.
Operating Task Redistribution in Hyperconverged Networks IJECEIAES
In this article, a searching method for the rational task distribution through the nodes of a hyperconverged network is presented in which it provides the rational distribution of task sets towards a better performance. With using new subsettings related to distribution of nodes in the network based on distributed processing, we can minimize average packet delay. The distribution quality is provided with using a special objective function considering the penalties in the case of having delays. This process is considered in order to create the balanced delivery systems. The initial redistribution is determined based on the minimum penalty. After performing a cycle (iteration) of redistribution in order to have the appropriate task distribution, a potential system is formed for functional optimization. In each cycle of the redistribution, a rule for optimizing contour search is used. Thus, the obtained task distribution, including the appeared failure and success, will be rational and can decrease the average packet delay in the hyperconverged networks. The effectiveness of our proposed method is evaluated by using the model of hyperconverged support system of the university E-learning provided by V.N. Karazin Kharkiv National University. The simulation results based on the model clearly confirm the acceptable and better performance of our approach in comparison to the classical approach of task distribution.
Semantic Image Retrieval Using Relevance Feedback dannyijwest
This paper presents optimized interactive content-based image retrieval framework based on AdaBoost
learning method. As we know relevance feedback (RF) is online process, so we have optimized the learning
process by considering the most positive image selection on each feedback iteration. To learn the system we
have used AdaBoost. The main significances of our system are to address the small training sample and to
reduce retrieval time. Experiments are conducted on 1000 semantic colour images from Corel database to
demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed framework. These experiments employed large image
database and combined RCWFs and DT-CWT texture descriptors to represent content of the images.
Optimized Access Strategies for a Distributed Database DesignWaqas Tariq
Abstract Distributed Database Query Optimization has been an active area of research for Database research Community in this decade. Research work mostly involves mathematical programming and evolving new algorithm design techniques in order to minimize the combined cost of storing the database, processing transactions and communication amongst various sites of storage. The complete problem and most of its subsets as well are NP-Hard. Most of proposed solutions till date are based on use of Enumerative Techniques or using Heuristics. In this paper we have shown benefits of using innovative Genetic Algorithms (GA) for optimizing the sequence of sub-query operations over the enumerative methods and heuristics. A stochastic simulator has been designed and experimental results show encouraging improvements in decreasing the total cost of a query. An exhaustive enumerative method is also applied and solutions are compared with that of GA on various parameters of a Distributed Query, like up to 12 joins and 10 sites. Keywords: Distributed Query Optimization, Database Statistics, Query Execution Plan, Genetic Algorithms, Operation Allocation.
Challenges in Dynamic Resource Allocation and Task Scheduling in Heterogeneou...rahulmonikasharma
Resource Allocation and Task scheduling are the most important key words in today’s dynamic cloud based applications. Task scheduling involves assigning tasks to available processors with the aim of producing minimum execution time, whereas resource allocation involves deciding on an allocation policy to allocate resources to various tasks so as to have maximum resource utilization. Algorithms used for scheduling resources for virtual machines are designed for both homogeneous and heterogeneous environments. Majority of the algorithms focus on processing ability often neglecting other features such as network bandwidth and actual resource requirements. One of the major pitfalls in cloud computing is related to optimizing the resources being allocated. Because of the uniqueness of the model, resource allocation is performed with the objective of minimizing the costs associated with it. The other challenges of resource allocation are meeting customer demands and application requirements. In this paper we will focus on the challenges faced in task scheduling and resource allocation in dynamic heterogeneous clouds.
A Survey of Machine Learning Techniques for Self-tuning Hadoop Performance IJECEIAES
The Apache Hadoop framework is an open source implementation of MapReduce for processing and storing big data. However, to get the best performance from this is a big challenge because of its large number configuration parameters. In this paper, the concept of critical issues of Hadoop system, big data and machine learning have been highlighted and an analysis of some machine learning techniques applied so far, for improving the Hadoop performance is presented. Then, a promising machine learning technique using deep learning algorithm is proposed for Hadoop system performance improvement.
Clustering is also known as data segmentation aims to partitions data set into groups, clusters, according to their similarity. Cluster analysis has been extensively studied in many researches. There are many algorithms for different types of clustering. These classical algorithms can't be applied on big data due to its distinct features. It is a challenge to apply the traditional techniques on large unstructured data. This study proposes a hybrid model to cluster big data using the famous traditional K-means clustering algorithm. The proposed model consists of three phases namely; Mapper phase, Clustering Phase and Reduce phase. The first phase uses map-reduce algorithm to split big data into small datasets. Whereas, the second phase implements the traditional clustering K-means algorithm on each of the spitted small data sets. The last phase is responsible of producing the general clusters output of the complete data set. Two functions, Mode and Fuzzy Gaussian, have been implemented and compared at the last phase to determine the most suitable one. The experimental study used four benchmark big data sets; Covtype, Covtype-2, Poker, and Poker-2. The results proved the efficiency of the proposed model in clustering big data using the traditional K-means algorithm. Also, the experiments show that the Fuzzy Gaussian function produces more accurate results than the traditional Mode function.
Multilinear Kernel Mapping for Feature Dimension Reduction in Content Based M...ijma
In the process of content-based multimedia retrieval, multimedia information is processed in order to
obtain descriptive features. Descriptive representation of features, results in a huge feature count, which
results in processing overhead. To reduce this descriptive feature overhead, various approaches have been
used to dimensional reduction, among which PCA and LDA are the most used methods. However, these
methods do not reflect the significance of feature content in terms of inter-relation among all dataset
features. To achieve a dimension reduction based on histogram transformation, features with low
significance can be eliminated. In this paper, we propose a feature dimensional reduction approaches to
achieve the dimension reduction approach based on a multi-linear kernel (MLK) modeling. A benchmark
dataset for the experimental work is taken and the proposed work is observed to be improved in analysis in
comparison to the conventional system.

Image Fusion using PCA Based Fusion Rule in Wavelet Domainijtsrd
Image fusion deals with combination of two or more images at input to produce new fused output image. Image fusion is a branch of image processing which is developing rapidly. The main aim of image fusion is to provide maximum information in the resulting image produced from the fusion of two or more images of the same scene or different taken at different instant of time. The result of image fusion is an image with more information and better quality. PCA provides dimensionality reduction and feature extraction. DWT decomposes the image by a factor of two.

Recommendation system using bloom filter in mapreduceIJDKP
Many clients like to use the Web to discover product details in the form of online reviews. The reviews are
provided by other clients and specialists. Recommender systems provide an important response to the
information overload problem as it presents users more practical and personalized information facilities.
Collaborative filtering methods are vital component in recommender systems as they generate high-quality
recommendations by influencing the likings of society of similar users. The collaborative filtering method
has assumption that people having same tastes choose the same items. The conventional collaborative
filtering system has drawbacks as sparse data problem & lack of scalability. A new recommender system is
required to deal with the sparse data problem & produce high quality recommendations in large scale
mobile environment. MapReduce is a programming model which is widely used for large-scale data
analysis. The described algorithm of recommendation mechanism for mobile commerce is user based
collaborative filtering using MapReduce which reduces scalability problem in conventional CF system.
One of the essential operations for the data analysis is join operation. But MapReduce is not very
competent to execute the join operation as it always uses all records in the datasets where only small
fraction of datasets are applicable for the join operation. This problem can be reduced by applying
bloomjoin algorithm. The bloom filters are constructed and used to filter out redundant intermediate
records. The proposed algorithm using bloom filter will reduce the number of intermediate results and will
improve the join performance.
Programming Modes and Performance of Raspberry-Pi ClustersAM Publications
In present times, updated information and knowledge has become readily accessible to researchers, enthusiasts, developers, and academics through the Internet on many different subjects for wider areas of application. The underlying framework facilitating such possibilities is networking of servers, nodes, and personal computers. However, such setups, comprising of mainframes, servers and networking devices are inaccessible to many, costly, and are not portable. In addition, students and lab-level enthusiasts do not have the requisite access to modify the functionality to suit specific purposes. The Raspberry-Pi (R-Pi) is a small device capable of many functionalities akin to super-computing while being portable, economical and flexible. It runs on open source Linux, making it a preferred choice for lab-level research and studies. Users have started using the embedded networking capability to design portable clusters that replace the costlier machines. This paper introduces new users to the most commonly used frameworks and some recent developments that best exploit the capabilities of R-Pi when used in clusters. This paper also introduces some of the tools and measures that rate efficiencies of clusters to help users assess the quality of cluster design. The paper aims to make users aware of the various parameters in a cluster environment.

This paper presents a description and performance evaluation of an efficient and reliable edge-detection tool that utilize the growing computational power of local area networks (LANs). It is therefore referred to as LAN-based edge detection (LANED) tool. The processor-farm methodology is used in porting the
sequential edge-detection calculations to run efficiently on the LAN. In this methodology, each computer on the LAN executes the same program independently from other computers, each operating on different part of the total data. It requires no data communication other than that involves in forwarding input
data/results between the LAN computers. LANED uses the Java parallel virtual machine (JPVM) data communication library to exchange data between computers. For equivalent calculations, the computation times on a single computer and a LAN of various number of computers, are estimated, and the resulting
speedup and parallelization efficiency, are computed. The estimated results demonstrated that parallelization efficiencies achieved vary between 87% to 60% when the number of computers on the LAN varies between 2 to 5 computers connected through 10/100 Mbps Ethernet switch.

LARGE-SCALE DATA PROCESSING USING MAPREDUCE IN CLOUD COMPUTING ENVIRONMENTijwscjournal
The computer industry is being challenged to develop methods and techniques for affordable data processing on large datasets at optimum response times. The technical challenges in dealing with the increasing demand to handle vast quantities of data is daunting and on the rise. One of the recent processing models with a more efficient and intuitive solution to rapidly process large amount of data in parallel is called MapReduce. It is a framework defining a template approach of programming to perform large-scale data computation on clusters of machines in a cloud computing environment. MapReduce provides automatic parallelization and distribution of computation based on several processors. It hides the complexity of writing parallel and distributed programming code. This paper provides a comprehensive systematic review and analysis of large-scale dataset processing and dataset handling challenges and
requirements in a cloud computing environment by using the MapReduce framework and its open-source implementation Hadoop. We defined requirements for MapReduce systems to perform large-scale data processing. We also proposed the MapReduce framework and one implementation of this framework on Amazon Web Services. At the end of the paper, we presented an experimentation of running MapReduce
system in a cloud environment. This paper outlines one of the best techniques to process large datasets is MapReduce; it also can help developers to do parallel and distributed computation in a cloud environment.
Performance Analysis of Parallel Algorithms on Multi-core System using OpenMP IJCSEIT Journal
The current multi-core architectures have become popular due to performance, and efficient processing of
multiple tasks simultaneously. Today’s the parallel algorithms are focusing on multi-core systems. The
design of parallel algorithm and performance measurement is the major issue on multi-core environment. If
one wishes to execute a single application faster, then the application must be divided into subtask or
threads to deliver desired result. Numerical problems, especially the solution of linear system of equation
have many applications in science and engineering. This paper describes and analyzes the parallel
algorithms for computing the solution of dense system of linear equations, and to approximately compute
the value of π using OpenMP interface. The performances (speedup) of parallel algorithms on multi-core

BROAD UNEXPOSED SKILLS OF TRANSGENDER ENTREPRENEURSIAEME Publication
Since ages gender difference is always a debatable theme whether caused by nature, evolution or environment. The birth of a transgender is dreadful not only for the child but also for their parents. The pain of living in the wrong physique and treated as second class victimized citizen is outrageous and fully harboured with vicious baseless negative scruples. For so long, social exclusion had perpetuated inequality and deprivation experiencing ingrained malign stigma and besieged victims of crime or violence across their life spans. They are pushed into the murky way of life with a source of eternal disgust, bereft sexual potency and perennial fear. Although they are highly visible but very little is known about them. The common public needs to comprehend the ravaged arrogance on these insensitive souls and assist in integrating them into the mainstream by offering equal opportunity, treat with humanity and respect their dignity. Entrepreneurship in the current age is endorsing the gender fairness movement. Unstable careers and economic inadequacy had inclined one of the gender variant people called Transgender to become entrepreneurs. These tiny budding entrepreneurs resulted in economic transition by means of employment, free from the clutches of stereotype jobs, raised standard of living and handful of financial empowerment. Besides all these inhibitions, they were able to witness a platform for skill set development that ignited them to enter into entrepreneurial domain. This paper epitomizes skill sets involved in trans-entrepreneurs of Thoothukudi Municipal Corporation of Tamil Nadu State and is a groundbreaking determination to sightsee various skills incorporated and the impact on entrepreneurship.

A STUDY ON THE IMPACT OF ORGANIZATIONAL CULTURE ON THE EFFECTIVENESS OF PERFO...IAEME Publication
The main objective of this study is to analyze the impact of aspects of Organizational Culture on the Effectiveness of the Performance Management System (PMS) in the Health Care Organization at Thanjavur. Organizational Culture and PMS play a crucial role in present-day organizations in achieving their objectives. PMS needs employees’ cooperation to achieve its intended objectives. Employees' cooperation depends upon the organization’s culture. The present study uses exploratory research to examine the relationship between the Organization's culture and the Effectiveness of the Performance Management System. The study uses a Structured Questionnaire to collect the primary data. For this study, Thirty-six non-clinical employees were selected from twelve randomly selected Health Care organizations at Thanjavur. Thirty-two fully completed questionnaires were received.
Living in 21st century in itself reminds all of us the necessity of police and its administration. As more and more we are entering into the modern society and culture, the more we require the services of the so called ‘Khaki Worthy’ men i.e., the police personnel. Whether we talk of Indian police or the other nation’s police, they all have the same recognition as they have in India. But as already mentioned, their services and requirements are different after the like 26th November, 2008 incidents, where they without saving their own lives has sacrificed themselves without any hitch and without caring about their respective family members and wards. In other words, they are like our heroes and mentors who can guide us from the darkness of fear, militancy, corruption and other dark sides of life and so on. Now the question arises, if Gandhi would have been alive today, what would have been his reaction/opinion to the police and its functioning? Would he have some thing different in his mind now what he had been in his mind before the partition or would he be going to start some Satyagraha in the form of some improvement in the functioning of the police administration? Really these questions or rather night mares can come to any one’s mind, when there is too much confusion is prevailing in our minds, when there is too much corruption in the society and when the polices working is also in the questioning because of one or the other case throughout the India. It is matter of great concern that we have to thing over our administration and our practical approach because the police personals are also like us, they are part and parcel of our society and among one of us, so why we all are pin pointing towards them.

ATTRITION IN THE IT INDUSTRY DURING COVID-19 PANDEMIC: LINKING EMOTIONAL INTE...IAEME Publication
Globally, Millions of dollars were spent by the organizations for employing skilled Information Technology (IT) professionals. It is costly to replace unskilled employees with IT professionals possessing technical skills and competencies that aid in interconnecting the business processes. The organization’s employment tactics were forced to alter by globalization along with technological innovations as they consistently diminish to remain lean, outsource to concentrate on core competencies along with restructuring/reallocate personnel to gather efficiency. As other jobs, organizations or professions have become reasonably more appropriate in a shifting employment landscape, the above alterations trigger both involuntary as well as voluntary turnover. The employee view on jobs is also afflicted by the COVID-19 pandemic along with the employee-driven labour market. So, having effective strategies is necessary to tackle the withdrawal rate of employees. By associating Emotional Intelligence (EI) along with Talent Management (TM) in the IT industry, the rise in attrition rate was analyzed in this study. Only 303 respondents were collected out of 350 participants to whom questionnaires were distributed. From the employees of IT organizations located in Bangalore (India), the data were congregated. A simple random sampling methodology was employed to congregate data as of the respondents. Generating the hypothesis along with testing is eventuated.

By implementing talent management strategy, organizations would have the option to retain their skilled professionals while additionally working on their overall performance. It is the course of appropriately utilizing the ideal individuals, setting them up for future top positions, exploring and dealing with their performance, and holding them back from leaving the organization. It is employee performance that determines the success of every organization. The firm quickly obtains an upper hand over its rivals in the event that its employees having particular skills that cannot be duplicated by the competitors. Thus, firms are centred on creating successful talent management practices and processes to deal with the unique human resources. Firms are additionally endeavouring to keep their top/key staff since on the off chance that they leave; the whole store of information leaves the firm's hands. The study's objective was to determine the impact of talent management on organizational performance among the selected IT organizations in Chennai. The study recommends that talent management limitedly affects performance. On the off chance that this talent is appropriately management and implemented properly, organizations might benefit as much as possible from their maintained assets to support development and productivity, both monetarily and non-monetarily.
A STUDY OF VARIOUS TYPES OF LOANS OF SELECTED PUBLIC AND PRIVATE SECTOR BANKS...IAEME Publication
Banking regulations act of India, 1949 defines banking as “acceptance of deposits for the purpose of lending or investment from the public, repayment on demand or otherwise and withdrawable through cheques, drafts order or otherwise”, the major participants of the Indian financial system are commercial banks, the financial institution encompassing term lending institutions. Investments institutions, specialized financial institution and the state level development banks, non banking financial companies (NBFC) and other market intermediaries such has the stock brokers and money lenders are among the oldest of the certain variants of NBFC and the oldest market participants. The asset quality of banks is one of the most important indicators of their financial health. The Indian banking sector has been facing severe problems of increasing Non- Performing Assets (NPAs). The NPAs growth directly and indirectly affects the quality of assets and profitability of banks. It also shows the efficiency of banks credit risk management and the recovery effectiveness. NPA do not generate any income, whereas, the bank is required to make provisions for such as assets that why is a double edge weapon. This paper outlines the concept of quality of bank loans of different types like Housing, Agriculture and MSME loans in state Haryana of selected public and private sector banks. This study is highlighting problems associated with the role of commercial bank in financing Small and Medium Scale Enterprises (SME). The overall objective of the research was to assess the effect of the financing provisions existing for the setting up and operations of MSMEs in the country and to generate recommendations for more robust financing mechanisms for successful operation of the MSMEs, in turn understanding the impact of MSME loans on financial institutions due to NPA. There are many research conducted on the topic of Non- Performing Assets (NPA) Management, concerning particular bank, comparative study of public and private banks etc. In this paper the researcher is considering the aggregate data of selected public sector and private sector banks and attempts to compare the NPA of Housing, Agriculture and MSME loans in state Haryana of public and private sector banks. The tools used in the study are average and Anova test and variance. The findings reveal that NPA is common problem for both public and private sector banks and is associated with all types of loans either that is housing loans, agriculture loans and loans to SMES. NPAs of both public and private sector banks show the increasing trend. In 2010-11 GNPA of public and private sector were at same level it was 2% but after 2010-11 it increased in many fold and at present there is GNPA in some more than 15%. It shows the dark area of Indian banking sector.

ROLE OF SOCIAL ENTREPRENEURSHIP IN RURAL DEVELOPMENT OF INDIA - PROBLEMS AND ...IAEME Publication
The majority of the population in India lives in villages. The village is the back bone of the country. Village or rural industries play an important role in the national economy, particularly in the rural development. Developing the rural economy is one of the key indicators towards a country’s success. Whether it be the need to look after the welfare of the farmers or invest in rural infrastructure, Governments have to ensure that rural development isn’t compromised. The economic development of our country largely depends on the progress of rural areas and the standard of living of rural masses. Village or rural industries play an important role in the national economy, particularly in the rural development. Rural entrepreneurship is based on stimulating local entrepreneurial talent and the subsequent growth of indigenous enterprises. It recognizes opportunity in the rural areas and accelerates a unique blend of resources either inside or outside of agriculture. Rural entrepreneurship brings an economic value to the rural sector by creating new methods of production, new markets, new products and generate employment opportunities thereby ensuring continuous rural development. Social Entrepreneurship has the direct and primary objective of serving the society along with the earning profits. So, social entrepreneurship is different from the economic entrepreneurship as its basic objective is not to earn profits but for providing innovative solutions to meet the society needs which are not taken care by majority of the entrepreneurs as they are in the business for profit making as a sole objective. So, the Social Entrepreneurs have the huge growth potential particularly in the developing countries like India where we have huge societal disparities in terms of the financial positions of the population. Still 22 percent of the Indian population is below the poverty line and also there is disparity among the rural & urban population in terms of families living under BPL. 25.7 percent of the rural population & 13.7 percent of the urban population is under BPL which clearly shows the disparity of the poor people in the rural and urban areas. The need to develop social entrepreneurship in agriculture is dictated by a large number of social problems. Such problems include low living standards, unemployment, and social tension. The reasons that led to the emergence of the practice of social entrepreneurship are the above factors. The research problem lays upon disclosing the importance of role of social entrepreneurship in rural development of India. The paper the tendencies of social entrepreneurship in India, to present successful examples of such business for providing recommendations how to improve situation in rural areas in terms of social entrepreneurship development. Indian government has made some steps towards development of social enterprises, social entrepreneurship, and social in- novation, but a lot remains to be improved.
OPTIMAL RECONFIGURATION OF POWER DISTRIBUTION RADIAL NETWORK USING HYBRID MET...IAEME Publication
Distribution system is a critical link between the electric power distributor and the consumers. Most of the distribution networks commonly used by the electric utility is the radial distribution network. However in this type of network, it has technical issues such as enormous power losses which affect the quality of the supply. Nowadays, the introduction of Distributed Generation (DG) units in the system help improve and support the voltage profile of the network as well as the performance of the system components through power loss mitigation. In this study network reconfiguration was done using two meta-heuristic algorithms Particle Swarm Optimization and Gravitational Search Algorithm (PSO-GSA) to enhance power quality and voltage profile in the system when simultaneously applied with the DG units. Backward/Forward Sweep Method was used in the load flow analysis and simulated using the MATLAB program. Five cases were considered in the Reconfiguration based on the contribution of DG units. The proposed method was tested using IEEE 33 bus system. Based on the results, there was a voltage profile improvement in the system from 0.9038 p.u. to 0.9594 p.u.. The integration of DG in the network also reduced power losses from 210.98 kW to 69.3963 kW. Simulated results are drawn to show the performance of each case.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!
