1) The current education system fails to properly develop students' cognitive, affective, and psychomotor domains. It focuses too heavily on rote learning and lacks practical application.
2) Traditional education had merits like ensuring careers benefited society and families, but transitioned poorly by not preserving these merits.
3) A new holistic education model is proposed that incorporates production, service, physical activity, personality development and entertainment to nurture all student development domains.
Diabetes And Bhramari Dr Shriniwas Kashalikardrphalgune
The document discusses how the pranayama technique called Bhramari can help overcome common respiratory infections associated with diabetes. Bhramari involves humming with the fingers placed in specific positions on the face and ears during prolonged expiration. It is believed to work through internal vibrations produced, stimulating internal organs like the sinuses, throat, and larynx. While more clinical trials are needed, the author finds Bhramari to be a calming and soothing activity.

It questions how partners can assist countries and regions.
Disunion Is Disturbance Dr. Shriniwas Kashalikardrphalgune
1) Namasmaran, or the remembrance of God's name, is proposed as a way to unite the spiritual and practical aspects of life that are currently disconnected.
2) It works by reorienting one's physiological self with one's true spiritual self through remembering God or a guru as a symbol of the true self.
3) This allows individual consciousness from every activity to funnel into cosmic consciousness, making namasmaran a culmination or "yoga of yoga" that can benefit people of any tradition or belief.

The document discusses "my problem", which is a struggle within individuals between what is and what should be. This restlessness stems from sensory input not matching feelings of wants and deficiencies. "My problem" is a global issue, as it is difficult to voluntarily blossom into generous, loving, and benevolent qualities. Punishment and force cannot transform individuals, only creating a holistic environment through globally beneficial policies and practices can help with blossoming. However, even this is not possible without considering everyone through tolerance, as "my problem" is also "your problem" - it is universal. The only way to address this is through the universal practice of Namasmaran.
Corrupt Perspective Dr. Shriniwas Kashalikardrphalgune
The document discusses the corruption of perspective and how it occurs. It states that as the space of one's consciousness becomes more restricted, one's perspective becomes more deteriorated and separated from nature, religions, and even family. This corruption of perspective is subtle and often goes unnoticed. It can make one's thoughts, feelings, and actions increasingly mean, lonely, weak, and selfish, which harms both oneself and society. Namasmaran, or remembrance of the divine name, can break open the shackles restricting one's consciousness and effectively treat the corruption of perspective, which is the root of all misery in the universe.

The document outlines issues with the current state of the fruit and vegetable industry in the Caribbean, noting it has declined, lacks private sector involvement, and talent is not retained. It argues for empowering youth by selecting those with the right talents and skills, equipping them further, and providing support through mentorship and access to expertise to create successful models and opportunities that can attract more youth and change the status quo.
Dharma And Cosmic Dynamics Dr. Shriniwas Kashalikardrphalgune
This document discusses the relationship between microcosmic and macrocosmic phenomena in the universe and how they relate to human existence and behavior. It argues that we perceive only a small fraction of what exists due to the limitations of our senses. This separation from the true nature of the universe causes unrest in humans, manifesting as struggles for things like existence, possessions, and control. The key to harmony is realizing our role in the greater cosmic orchestra and accurately emulating it, which can be achieved through practices like Namasmaran meditation.

My Spiritual Queston Dr. Shriniwas Kashalikardrphalgune
The document discusses forgetting oneself during namasmaran (remembrance of a divine name). It explains that forgetting oneself in this context does not mean becoming oblivious, but rather forgetting individual doubts and focusing on remedying situations from their root cause. By engaging in namasmaran, one can focus on and work with the unchanging controlling center or Paramatma, as opposed to the ever-changing illusions of maya. Feedback from other namasmaran practitioners is welcome.
More About Equality Dr. Shriniwas Kashalikardrphalgune
The document discusses the concept of equality and Namasmaran. It argues that imposing uniformity on things like culture, food, and salaries stems from misguided trends and does not lead to true equality. True equality embraces diversity and creating an environment where all can blossom. It describes Namasmaran as remembering the name of God, gurus, or other symbols of one's true self. This practice helps reunify one's physiological self with their true spiritual self and leads to unification with cosmic consciousness. Namasmaran is considered a culmination of yoga and meditation practices that helps one rise above worldly concerns to manifest higher actions.
Meaning Of Conceptual Stress Dr. Shriniwas Kashalikardrphalgune
This document discusses conceptual stress, which is a type of stress caused by intellectual chaos arising from physical, emotional, or other causes. In modern life, the rapid pace of change can shatter our conceptual frameworks as new issues emerge, leaving us helpless and miserable - this constitutes conceptual stress. Morality, ethics, and traditions from the past are often proving inadequate or irrelevant. Conceptual stress involves defective perceptions, thoughts, emotions, and physical needs associated with abnormal brain activity. It is minimized in those with a self-centered lifestyle but maximized in those with global perspectives who seek solutions to worldwide problems and suffering. Remembering one's true self through namasmartan is suggested as a way to gain clarity and overcome conceptual stress

Bram Verhoef, Head of Machine Learning at Axelera AI, presents the “How Axelera AI Uses Digital Compute-in-memory to Deliver Fast and Energy-efficient Computer Vision” tutorial at the May 2024 Embedded Vision Summit.
As artificial intelligence inference transitions from cloud environments to edge locations, computer vision applications achieve heightened responsiveness, reliability and privacy. This migration, however, introduces the challenge of operating within the stringent confines of resource constraints typical at the edge, including small form factors, low energy budgets and diminished memory and computational capacities. Axelera AI addresses these challenges through an innovative approach of performing digital computations within memory itself. This technique facilitates the realization of high-performance, energy-efficient and cost-effective computer vision capabilities at the thin and thick edge, extending the frontier of what is achievable with current technologies.
In this presentation, Verhoef unveils his company’s pioneering chip technology and demonstrates its capacity to deliver exceptional frames-per-second performance across a range of standard computer vision networks typical of applications in security, surveillance and the industrial sector. This shows that advanced computer vision can be accessible and efficient, even at the very edge of our technological ecosystem.
Introduction of Cybersecurity with OSS at Code Europe 2024Hiroshi SHIBATA
I develop the Ruby programming language, RubyGems, and Bundler, which are package managers for Ruby. Today, I will introduce how to enhance the security of your application using open-source software (OSS) examples from Ruby and RubyGems.
The first topic is CVE (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures). I have published CVEs many times. But what exactly is a CVE? I'll provide a basic understanding of CVEs and explain how to detect and handle vulnerabilities in OSS.
Next, let's discuss package managers. Package managers play a critical role in the OSS ecosystem. I'll explain how to manage library dependencies in your application.
I'll share insights into how the Ruby and RubyGems core team works to keep our ecosystem safe. By the end of this talk, you'll have a better understanding of how to safeguard your code.
Conversational agents, or chatbots, are increasingly used to access all sorts of services using natural language. While open-domain chatbots - like ChatGPT - can converse on any topic, task-oriented chatbots - the focus of this paper - are designed for specific tasks, like booking a flight, obtaining customer support, or setting an appointment. Like any other software, task-oriented chatbots need to be properly tested, usually by defining and executing test scenarios (i.e., sequences of user-chatbot interactions). However, there is currently a lack of methods to quantify the completeness and strength of such test scenarios, which can lead to low-quality tests, and hence to buggy chatbots.
To fill this gap, we propose adapting mutation testing (MuT) for task-oriented chatbots. To this end, we introduce a set of mutation operators that emulate faults in chatbot designs, an architecture that enables MuT on chatbots built using heterogeneous technologies, and a practical realisation as an Eclipse plugin. Moreover, we evaluate the applicability, effectiveness and efficiency of our approach on open-source chatbots, with promising results.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity serverAntonios Katsarakis
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...Alex Pruden
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

Education is defined in various ways but it can be
safely said to have three domains, which are as
follows.
The first domain is called AFFECTIVE
DOMAIN. This means the state of mind. In
simple words affective domain relates to how we
feel. Thus when our mind is full of alertness,
attention, enthusiasm, buoyancy, affection,
concern, joy, tolerance, self esteem, mutual
respect, mutual trust, commitment, dedication,
confidence, positive and victorious spirit, we
would call it healthy affective domain. In addition
the zeal and concentration needed in the pursuit
3. of excellence in intellectual field, tenacity and
endurance required in skillful activities and
patience and commitment essential for satisfying
and socially beneficial actions constitute affective
domain. The purpose of education is to nurture
this domain by designing suitable curricula and
syllabi.
The second domain of education is called
PSYCHOMOTOR DOMAIN. This implies
ability to appreciate skills and ability to perform
physical and mental skills, with speed, accuracy,
elegance, ease of performance etc. This may
involve appreciation and performance of skills
such as surgery, playing a musical instrument,
playing basket ball or doing carpentry! The
purpose of education is to nurture this domain
through not only designing suitable curricula,
syllabi but also by providing sufficient practical
and demonstration classes with all the necessary
equipment.
4. The third domain is called COGNITIVE
DOMAIN. Cognitive domain incorporates
accurate perspective, contemplation, correct
perception understanding, conceptualization,
analysis and recall of problems, ability to
evaluate, synthesize, correlate and make
decisions, appropriate policies, plans and
expertise in the management, administration, etc.
It is clear that all the domains have three
components viz. Cognition [Perception], affect
[Feelings] and conation [Response].
Let us consider the traditional system in a
dispassionate manner and scrutinize the merits
and demerits. It is obvious that we will not be
able to consider all the details of the system as
they varied from time to time and from place to
place. But a general review of the system would
help us to overcome our disturbance!
5. This can be done only if we rise above the petty
considerations of religion, region, caste, political
power and other vested interests. This would help
us rectify the present education system.
Conversely, unless the existing education system
is rectified appropriately subsequent generations
may not be able to develop the three domains of
education adequately.
Many of you may argue here that this task can not
be accomplished by common people, but can be
successfully accomplished only by the politicians,
political advisors, the decision-makers and the
top administrators.
This argument is valid, but not completely. It has
to be appreciated that no statesman, no political
leader, no policy maker and no administrator can
bring about change in an existing system unless,
there is consensus about these changes in the vast
6. majority of people whose cooperation in such
matters is very vital.
So let us take at least a cursory look at the
traditional system of education in India.
The traditional education system in India in
general ensured that:
a] Careers were not selected on the basis of
monetary gains,
b] Careers were not selected arbitrarily on the
basis of idiosyncrasies and whims,
c] Some lucrative careers could not be sought
after obsessively, in preference to the others,
d] All careers ensured income and production
from early age,
e] All careers ensured that society was benefited,
f] All careers ensured security to all the social
groups,
g] All the careers ensured intimacy and closeness
between young and old in the families.
7. h] All careers ensured ethical education and
passage of experience from generation to
generation.
In my view these were merits.
(But it is also true that: The traditional system
was apparently marked by deprivation of
scholastic education on mass scale, apparently
unjustifiable distribution of a variety of jobs,
deficient infrastructure for collective scientific
and technological efforts, an element of arbitrary
imposition of hierarchy and).
But the point here is to see how the transition
from traditional system to the present one has
failed to preserve and nurture the merits and
discard the demerits and thereby lead to
multiplication of problems!
As the education shifted from homes, home
industries and farms to; nurseries, K.G. schools,
8. schools, colleges, universities, corporate
industries, research institutions etc.
Cognition suffered because of:
a] Huge number of students, in a single class
making following three things almost impossible.
These things are i] individual attention ii]
dialogue iii] discussions,
b] Lack of adequate salary, accountability,
incentive and economic security to the teachers
taking away the initiative of nurturing cognitive
domain
c] Increase in alienation with respect to student’s
background and aptitude
d] Lack of adequate incentive to the students in
the form of creativity, production and earning,
service to the family and service to the nation,
takes away the motivation required for building
up cognitive domain
e] Lack of conviction essential in the growth of
cognitive domain in the teachers and students
because of outdated practical and demonstration
9. classes, lack of interdisciplinary dialogue and in
general the irrelevance of education to the
realities of day to day life in as much as almost
predictable consecutive unemployment at the
end! The lack of conviction could be partly due to
lack of participation by teachers in decision-
making, policy making, development of curricula,
syllabi etc.
f] Emphasis on recall and hence rote learning
thereby denying free inquiry, reading,
questioning etc. thereby directly thwarting the
cognitive domain
g]] Too many examinations with irrelevant
parameters or criteria of evaluation [besides being
unfair in many instances] lead to misguided and
in most cases counterproductive efforts thus
adversely affecting the cognitive domain
h] Competitions where the manipulative skills,
callousness, selfishness are given more respect,
destroy the enthusiasm of growing in cognitive
domain
10. i] Information explosion can affect cognitive
domain by either causing enormous and
unnecessary burden on memory or inferiority
complex
j] Pressure of interviews causing constant tension
and sense of inadequacy, right from the tender
age,
k] Protracted hours of homework in schools
denying the students their legitimate right to
enjoy their childhood and make them physically,
mentally and intellectually unfit to grow in
cognitive domain
l] Irrelevant and unnecessary information loading
in lectures in the form of monologue, leading to
suppression of the spontaneity, originality,
interest and enthusiasm so much required in
cognitive development amongst the students,
Affective domain suffered due to,
11. A] Isolation of the children from their parents and
their domestic environment at an early age
[Making the parents also equally sad]
B] Lack of warm bonds due to huge number,
C] Cut throat individualistic and petty
competition,
D] Inadequate facilities of sports, trekking,
educational tours, recreation and physical
development etc
E] Alienation from one’s social environment and
culture
Psychomotor domain suffered due to
A] Almost total lack of opportunities to actually
participate in skillful activities such as drawing,
painting, sewing, sculpturing, carpentry, knitting,
weaving, music, agriculture, horticulture, other
handicrafts, various sports, performing arts etc.
It is important to realize that promotion of
psychomotor domain is evident but in its
caricature form. It has no concrete economic
12. realistic basis. The activities have no economic
incentive and no productive element.
The present education system in India;
basically and almost completely prevents a
huge section of society such as teachers,
students, clerks, servants, sweepers and many
others such as education inspectors, etc. from
being creative and productive. In addition it
causes colossal loss of space, electricity,
construction cost and so on. In addition
because of the typical emphasis on rote
learning it leads to phenomenal waste of
educational material such as paper, bags,
pencils, ball pens etc.
Lack of productive element in education not only
causes colossal loss to nation but it also causes
economic loss to children while suppressing and
starving their psychomotor domain! The lack of
13. productive element and economic incentive is a
single most important cause of
1] Reduction in the dignity of labor amongst
those who continue to learn, as well as reduction
in the income of the concerned families and the
nation
2] Lack of education, lack of employment and
starvation or criminalization amongst those who
are forced to drop out because the poor villagers’
children normally contribute to the earning of the
family.
3] Inhuman suffering of those dropouts, who
somehow manage to get into cheap labor for
subsistence.
It has to be appreciated that billions of rupees
are spent on construction, decoration and
maintenance of schools and colleges. Billions
more are spent on payment of millions of
teachers and other staff members engaged in
unproductive exercises. Billions are spent on
electricity, and so called educational material.
14. Billions more are spent on the exams
conducted to test the “capacity and merit of
rote learning”. This way we weaken the
national economy, jeopardize the
developmental activities and force millions of
students to drop out due to economic reasons
and get into the hell of child labor, besides
starving and suppressing the cognitive,
affective and psychomotor domains of
millions. In short, present day education
system harnesses [amongst those who continue
to learn] arrogance coupled with lack of
confidence leaving all the domains viz.
cognitive, psychomotor and affective,
[including creative and productive skills and
physical health] defective, deficient and
underdeveloped. Further, when this education
fails to give a job, it tends to create vindictive
attitude transforming an individual into a
criminal or develops frustration and
transforms an individual into a mental wreck.
15. It must be appreciated that some institutions and
individuals are making illustrious efforts in the
direction of rectifying the education at their level.
But the chaos in the present education and the
resultant conceptual stress cannot be managed
effectively, unless we propagate this conceptual
understanding about education and try to see that
suitable changes are made to nurture cognitive,
affective, psychomotor and productive domains
all over the world.
In short it can be stated that every school, college,
university etc must become the centers of
production and service besides being centers
excellence in science, art, literature, philosophy
etc.
The student must have economic incentive for
what he/she is privileged to make. Besides,
everybody connected with education directly or
16. indirectly must be involved in production or
service.
Everyday approximately
20 % of the time must be spent in production,
service etc.
20 % of the time must be spent in physical
activities
20 % of the time must be spent in personality
development and
20 % of the time must be spent in entertainment
20 % of the time must be spent on cognitive
domain
Production may be of suitable items and service
can involve community projects such plantation,
cleanliness etc.
Physical activities can include sports, exercise,
trekking, hiking etc.
Personality development refers to broadening of
perspective through various means such as
invited guest lectures, seminars, discussions on
holistic health, educational tours and visits to
17. places where the student gets exposed to rapid
developments in the society such as laboratories,
airports, government offices, share market, farms
etc.
Entertainment could include playing musical
instruments, dance, painting or anything that
makes a student happy such as mimicry, singing,
story telling, drama, movie etc.
Development of cognitive domain can include
teaching of languages, history, geography,
mathematics etc with utmost emphasis on
interpretation and relevance in day to day life.
Thus typical questions in the examination of
history, languages should be totally done away
with. The subject such as economics, psychology,
civics, philosophy, logic, sociology etc must
include field work and made relevant to the
present society.
Conceptual stress arising out of chaos in
education can not be managed effectively unless
18. and until a situation where millions are
“imprisoned” in unproductive work and millions
are forced into unemployment and inhuman
cheap child labor is eradicated through law and
government rules, besides public awareness.
The details of practical steps can be developed
by interactions amongst the people active in
the field of education all over the world.
