report on the Study Of Technology System Of Self-Healing Control In Smart Dis...Yuvraj Singh
The document discusses smart grid technology and its key components. It describes how smart grids aim to enhance grid reliability and integrate renewable energy and other smart technologies. Smart grids allow for two-way energy and information flow and more efficient monitoring and control. The document outlines several technologies that are important for smart grids, including smart transmission grids, information technology, and smart metering systems. Smart transmission grids focus on increasing transmission capacity and developing embedded intelligence. Information technology enables two-way communication and automated analysis. Smart metering systems improve monitoring of power usage.
The document discusses a case study of using Apache Spark to improve data processing speed. An organization was processing pharmaceutical data batches containing up to 1 billion records, which previously took 2.2 hours using a 5 node Vertica cluster. By migrating to a 3 node Apache Spark cluster on AWS, processing time was reduced by 62%, taking only 1 hour to process 1.2 billion records. Key steps taken included ingesting data into DataFrames, replacing procedures with UDFs, using Spark SQL and partitioning the DataFrame to perform parallel processing across nodes.
Dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM): A Review Kamal Pradhan
it is clear that as we approach the 21st century the remarkable revolution in information services has
permeated our society. This rapid growth of information technology has led to new services hungry for transmission
capacity. Communication, which in the past was confined to narrowband voice signals, now demands a high quality
visual, audio, and data context for services such as Voice over-Internet protocol (VoIP), video streaming,
broadcasting of TV programmes, high-speed file sharing, E-commerce and E-Governance need a transmission
medium with very high bandwidth capabilities for handling vast amounts of information. The telecommunications
industry, however, is struggling to keep pace with these changes. Earlier predictions were made that current fiber
capacities would be adequate for our needs into the next century but they have been proven wrong but these fiber-
optics, with its comparatively infinite bandwidth and by employing the latest multiplexing technique, i.e. Dense
Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) has proven to be the solution.
Mathematical modeling and parameter estimation for water quality management s...Kamal Pradhan
This report describes various problem solving techniques in mathematical modeling for calculating various parameters of water e.g. temperature, pH, Dissolved oxygen. A mathematical model provides the ability to predict the contaminant concentration levels of a river. Here we are using an advection-diffusion equation as our mathematical model. The numerical solution of equation is calculated using Matlab & Mathematica. Parameter estimation is necessary in water modeling to predict the different parameters of water at different point with minimal errors. So here we use 2D & 3D interpolation technique for parameter estimation.

Securing Web Communication Using Three Layer Image ShieldingKamal Pradhan
The internet has revolutionized all forms of communication since the beginning of its existence and serves an important role in data transmission and sharing. Since the rapid growth of internet, information privacy and security have become the most important issues in today’s world. Since the last 2 decades many information hiding techniques have been developed such as digital watermarking, Cryptography and Steganography. Watermarking is the process of embedding a message on a host signal. It has the additional requirement of robustness against possible attacks. A watermark can be either visible or invisible. Using digital watermarking, copyright information can be embedded into the multimedia data Information such the serial number, images or text with special significance can be embedded. The function of this information can be for copyright protection, secret communication, authenticity and distinguishing of data file, etc [1].
Color based image processing , tracking and automation using matlabKamal Pradhan
Image processing is a form of signal processing in which the input is an image, such as a photograph or video frame. The output of image processing may be either an image or, a set of characteristics or parameters related to the image. Most image-processing techniques involve treating the image as a two-dimensional signal and applying standard signal-processing techniques to it. This project aims at processing the real time images captured by a Webcam for motion detection and Color Recognition and system automation using MATLAB programming.
In color based image processing we work with colors instead of object. Color provides powerful information for object recognition. A simple and effective recognition scheme is to represent and match images on the basis of color histograms.
Tracking refers to detection of the path of the color once the color based processing is done the color becomes the object to be tracked this can be very helpful in security purposes.
Automation refers to an automated system is any system that does not require human intervention. In this project I’ve automated the mouse that work with our gesture and do the desired tasks.
ESR spectroscopy in liquid food and beverages.pptxPRIYANKA PATEL
With increasing population, people need to rely on packaged food stuffs. Packaging of food materials requires the preservation of food. There are various methods for the treatment of food to preserve them and irradiation treatment of food is one of them. It is the most common and the most harmless method for the food preservation as it does not alter the necessary micronutrients of food materials. Although irradiated food doesn’t cause any harm to the human health but still the quality assessment of food is required to provide consumers with necessary information about the food. ESR spectroscopy is the most sophisticated way to investigate the quality of the food and the free radicals induced during the processing of the food. ESR spin trapping technique is useful for the detection of highly unstable radicals in the food. The antioxidant capability of liquid food and beverages in mainly performed by spin trapping technique.
The ability to recreate computational results with minimal effort and actionable metrics provides a solid foundation for scientific research and software development. When people can replicate an analysis at the touch of a button using open-source software, open data, and methods to assess and compare proposals, it significantly eases verification of results, engagement with a diverse range of contributors, and progress. However, we have yet to fully achieve this; there are still many sociotechnical frictions.
Inspired by David Donoho's vision, this talk aims to revisit the three crucial pillars of frictionless reproducibility (data sharing, code sharing, and competitive challenges) with the perspective of deep software variability.
Our observation is that multiple layers — hardware, operating systems, third-party libraries, software versions, input data, compile-time options, and parameters — are subject to variability that exacerbates frictions but is also essential for achieving robust, generalizable results and fostering innovation. I will first review the literature, providing evidence of how the complex variability interactions across these layers affect qualitative and quantitative software properties, thereby complicating the reproduction and replication of scientific studies in various fields.
I will then present some software engineering and AI techniques that can support the strategic exploration of variability spaces. These include the use of abstractions and models (e.g., feature models), sampling strategies (e.g., uniform, random), cost-effective measurements (e.g., incremental build of software configurations), and dimensionality reduction methods (e.g., transfer learning, feature selection, software debloating).
I will finally argue that deep variability is both the problem and solution of frictionless reproducibility, calling the software science community to develop new methods and tools to manage variability and foster reproducibility in software systems.

The debris of the ‘last major merger’ is dynamically youngSérgio Sacani
The Milky Way’s (MW) inner stellar halo contains an [Fe/H]-rich component with highly eccentric orbits, often referred to as the
‘last major merger.’ Hypotheses for the origin of this component include Gaia-Sausage/Enceladus (GSE), where the progenitor
collided with the MW proto-disc 8–11 Gyr ago, and the Virgo Radial Merger (VRM), where the progenitor collided with the
MW disc within the last 3 Gyr. These two scenarios make different predictions about observable structure in local phase space,
because the morphology of debris depends on how long it has had to phase mix. The recently identified phase-space folds in Gaia
DR3 have positive caustic velocities, making them fundamentally different than the phase-mixed chevrons found in simulations
at late times. Roughly 20 per cent of the stars in the prograde local stellar halo are associated with the observed caustics. Based
on a simple phase-mixing model, the observed number of caustics are consistent with a merger that occurred 1–2 Gyr ago.
We also compare the observed phase-space distribution to FIRE-2 Latte simulations of GSE-like mergers, using a quantitative
measurement of phase mixing (2D causticality). The observed local phase-space distribution best matches the simulated data
1–2 Gyr after collision, and certainly not later than 3 Gyr. This is further evidence that the progenitor of the ‘last major merger’
did not collide with the MW proto-disc at early times, as is thought for the GSE, but instead collided with the MW disc within
the last few Gyr, consistent with the body of work surrounding the VRM.
Or: Beyond linear.
Abstract: Equivariant neural networks are neural networks that incorporate symmetries. The nonlinear activation functions in these networks result in interesting nonlinear equivariant maps between simple representations, and motivate the key player of this talk: piecewise linear representation theory.

EWOCS-I: The catalog of X-ray sources in Westerlund 1 from the Extended Weste...Sérgio Sacani
Context. With a mass exceeding several 104 M⊙ and a rich and dense population of massive stars, supermassive young star clusters
represent the most massive star-forming environment that is dominated by the feedback from massive stars and gravitational interactions
among stars.
Aims. In this paper we present the Extended Westerlund 1 and 2 Open Clusters Survey (EWOCS) project, which aims to investigate
the influence of the starburst environment on the formation of stars and planets, and on the evolution of both low and high mass stars.
The primary targets of this project are Westerlund 1 and 2, the closest supermassive star clusters to the Sun.
Methods. The project is based primarily on recent observations conducted with the Chandra and JWST observatories. Specifically,
the Chandra survey of Westerlund 1 consists of 36 new ACIS-I observations, nearly co-pointed, for a total exposure time of 1 Msec.
Additionally, we included 8 archival Chandra/ACIS-S observations. This paper presents the resulting catalog of X-ray sources within
and around Westerlund 1. Sources were detected by combining various existing methods, and photon extraction and source validation
were carried out using the ACIS-Extract software.
Results. The EWOCS X-ray catalog comprises 5963 validated sources out of the 9420 initially provided to ACIS-Extract, reaching a
photon flux threshold of approximately 2 × 10−8 photons cm−2
s
−1
. The X-ray sources exhibit a highly concentrated spatial distribution,
with 1075 sources located within the central 1 arcmin. We have successfully detected X-ray emissions from 126 out of the 166 known
massive stars of the cluster, and we have collected over 71 000 photons from the magnetar CXO J164710.20-455217.
The technology uses reclaimed CO₂ as the dyeing medium in a closed loop process. When pressurized, CO₂ becomes supercritical (SC-CO₂). In this state CO₂ has a very high solvent power, allowing the dye to dissolve easily.
The use of Nauplii and metanauplii artemia in aquaculture (brine shrimp).pptxMAGOTI ERNEST
Although Artemia has been known to man for centuries, its use as a food for the culture of larval organisms apparently began only in the 1930s, when several investigators found that it made an excellent food for newly hatched fish larvae (Litvinenko et al., 2023). As aquaculture developed in the 1960s and ‘70s, the use of Artemia also became more widespread, due both to its convenience and to its nutritional value for larval organisms (Arenas-Pardo et al., 2024). The fact that Artemia dormant cysts can be stored for long periods in cans, and then used as an off-the-shelf food requiring only 24 h of incubation makes them the most convenient, least labor-intensive, live food available for aquaculture (Sorgeloos & Roubach, 2021). The nutritional value of Artemia, especially for marine organisms, is not constant, but varies both geographically and temporally. During the last decade, however, both the causes of Artemia nutritional variability and methods to improve poorquality Artemia have been identified (Loufi et al., 2024).
Brine shrimp (Artemia spp.) are used in marine aquaculture worldwide. Annually, more than 2,000 metric tons of dry cysts are used for cultivation of fish, crustacean, and shellfish larva. Brine shrimp are important to aquaculture because newly hatched brine shrimp nauplii (larvae) provide a food source for many fish fry (Mozanzadeh et al., 2021). Culture and harvesting of brine shrimp eggs represents another aspect of the aquaculture industry. Nauplii and metanauplii of Artemia, commonly known as brine shrimp, play a crucial role in aquaculture due to their nutritional value and suitability as live feed for many aquatic species, particularly in larval stages (Sorgeloos & Roubach, 2021).
1. Smart Grid
Traditional power grid can be upgraded into smart grids by incorporating two-way
integrated communications and smart computing capabilities for improved efficiency, reliability
and decision support.
Smart grid enables us to use both conventional energy source e.g. carbon based fuels and
renewable energy source e.g. wind and solar energy. Carbon fuel based power plants can
cooperate with renewable energy plants to reduce the carbon fuel consumption and pollution
caused by it.
A smart grid delivers electricity between supplier and consumer using two-way digital
technology. To increase reliability, transparency and to reduce cost and save energy smart grids
can be used.
It incorporates modernization of traditional electricity network by providing real time
monitoring of power consumption which helps consumer to minimize their expense on
conventional energy by adjusting their home appliances operation to avoid peak hours and
utilize the renewable resources.
KEY AREAS IN SMART GRID TECHNOLOGIES
1) Sensing and measurement e.g. advanced metering infrastructure system
2) Advanced components e.g. efficient and reliable electric components.
3) Integrated communications e.g. advanced communication protocols
4) Data management and Decision support e.g. supply and demand control system.
Our focus is to work on data management and decision support system. The smart grid
infrastructure delivers vast amount of data coming from its applications. This data can be
harnessed to build an efficient supply and demand control system and next generation
distribution control system.
Currently we are focusing on supply and demand control system by predicting the power
consumption through
i) Time-series pattern matching using statistical analysis.
ii) Time-series analysis using ARMA and ARIMA models.
iii) Artificial neural network.
