The Qutb Minar also spelled as Qutub Minar and Qutab Minar, is a minaret and "victory tower" that forms part of the Qutb complex, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in the Mehrauli area of New Delhi, India.[3][4] The height of Qutb Minar is 72.5 meters, making it the tallest minaret in the world built of bricks. The tower tapers, and has a 14.3 metres (47 feet) base diameter, reducing to 2.7 metres (9 feet) at the top of the peak.
It contains a spiral staircase of 379 steps.
Its closest comparator is the 62-metre all-brick Minaret of Jam in Afghanistan, of c.1190, a decade or so before the probable start of the Delhi tower. The surfaces of both are elaborately decorated with inscriptions and geometric patterns; in Delhi the shaft is fluted with "superb stalactite bracketing under the balconies" at the top of each stage. In general, minarets were slow to be used in India, and are often detached from the main mosque where they exist.

An introduction to application of zebra pattern for dissipation of heat in el...Sumit Dharmarao
This paper helps to correlate unique characteristics of special animals with the science involved in it and applying the same principles to solve our technical problems for better performance of machines & that too at low cost. This paper focuses at stripes of zebra, scientific cause of it & checking the possibility for application of zebra pattern for better dissipation of heat generated within electronic equipments which results in satisfactory output of machines & equipments.
It’s no news that containers represent a portable unit of deployment, and OpenStack has proven an ideal environment for running container workloads. However, where it usually becomes more complex is that many times an application is often built out of multiple containers, as well as hybrid environments - diverse clouds, bare metal and even non-virtualized infrastructure. What’s more, setting up a cluster of container images can be fairly cumbersome because you need to make one container aware of another and expose intimate details that are required for them to communicate which is not trivial especially if they’re not on the same host.
These scenarios have instigated the demand for some kind of orchestrator. The list of container orchestrators is growing fairly fast. This session will compare the different orchestration projects out there - from Heat to Kubernetes to Mesos & Cloudify - and help you choose the right tool for the job.
The Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Sites and Remains Act, 1958 defines an ‘ Ancient Monument ’ as follows:-

The seven wonders of the world have been compiled from antiquity to the present day, to catalog the worlds most spectacular natural wonder and man made structures .
The seven wonders of the world are impressive monuments regarded with awe and wonder. The New 7 Wonders Foundation in in Switzerland received around 200 entries from across the world,and it finally short-listed twenty one finalists . In 2007, the final list of the seven modern wonders were announced in Lisbon, Portugal.

A monument is a type of structure that

person or important event, or which has
become important to a social group as a

3. Some famous monuments
The Kaaba (Masjid al-Haram) is a cuboid-shaped
building in Mecca, Saudi Arabia, and is the most

Cultural monuments in the world. The Quran states
that the Kaaba was constructed by Abraham (Ibrahim
in Arabic), and his son Ishmael (Ismaeel in Arabic),

a mosque built around it, the Masjid al-Haram. All
Muslims around the world face the Kaaba during
prayers, no matter where they are. This is called facing
the Qiblah.
One of the Five Pillars of Islam requires every Muslim
to perform the Hajj pilgrimage at least once in his or
her lifetime if able to do so. Multiple parts of the Hajj
require pilgrims to walk seven times around the Kaaba
in a counter-clockwise direction (as viewed from
above). This circumambulation, the Tawaf, is also
performed by pilgrims during the Umrah (lesser
pilgrimage). However, the most dramatic times are
during the Hajj, when about 6 million pilgrims gather
to circle the building on the same day.
