A study on procurement performance evaluation
The main objective of the study was to study procurement performance and its evaluation. Procurement processes are important functions within any enterprise. Procurement is the process of acquiring, buying goods or services or works from an external source, often via a tendering or bid process. The procurement process involves two categories i.e. direct procurement and indirect procurement. Direct Procurements affects the production process of manufacturing firms. It encompasses all items that are part of finished products, such as raw materials, components and parts. The indirect procurement activities deal with operating resources that a company purchases to enable its operations. The success of any organization is depends on supply chain and procurement, because of this it is very important to evaluate the performance of procurement. The financial performance is also indirectly linked with the procurement of material. For the efficient and effective working of any organization or company need to measure procurement performance. For this research purpose descriptive research design was used in executing the study. The targeted group of the study was staffs who deal with procurement. The questionnaire design according to objective and send to respective person and the analysis made on the response collected from them. The results describe using table, graphs, etc.

Utilization of Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement in bituminous road
This paper aim to study various properties, parameter of RAP (Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement) and use it in construction of flexible pavement. RAP mainly constituted with scrap material received from flexible pavement due to increment of granular sub base and base course as per latest IRC code. In this the scrap material is recycled as RAP so the construction cost will considerably decrease. This RAP may be used as sub base course or base course with cold in place recycling method or reclaimed with additional binder or aggregates and use in base course as bituminous layer. This will also help to save valuable natural resource in huge quantity. This paper also contains a case study of RAP and analysis of direct saving of construction cost.

Plant disease detection using Machine Learning
Agriculture is considered to be the backbone and major revenue producing of our country. Crops play an important role in our daily routine providing us with nourishments. Due to environmental conditions, crops are getting affected with many diseases. Farmers are not able to detect these diseases at an early stage. Thus, assessment of crop condition is vital. The growing technology plays a major role and techniques like Machine Learning, Deep Learning are used. Here in this project focuses on the assessment of the crop condition with the help of their leaves, Healthy as well as diseased leaves are capture using cameras from real-time environments, K-means clustering is used for segmentation. After segmentation undergo classification using Machine learning algorithms in which healthy and diseased leaves are detected.

A survey on different Port Scanning methods and the tools that are used to perform them
Port Scanning is a method which is used in the vulnerability Detection of a host Machine. Port scanning is a phase in footprinting and scanning; this comes in reconnaissance which is considered as the first stage of a computer attack. However there are different methods that can be used in different circumstances to perform a port scanning. But each method has its own cons and pros. This survey paper presents few such methods that was developed long ago but are in constant research and the tools that employ these methods. The paper presents different methods and compares them.

An application of emergency assistance using GPS
This application emphasis on to find the location and giving the first aid info to the victim, during the time of the emergency case issues. This application deals with the present problems faced in the society by knowing the troubles of the people during the emergency of hospitalization. When a person met with the emergency of hospitalization, other users near to him can take the picture and can upload that to this application, as well as for a while he can find the prescription for that by choosing the options already present in the applications. The target of this application is to help the public who need to hospitalize during the emergency. So, it is a social application and also helps police station and ambulance to get the required information on a few clicks. The goal of this application is to find the people who are in trouble by sending their pictures to circulate the message to the police or hospital immediately during the emergency hospitalized cases.

Hopper mechanism for powder food packing industry
The hopper mechanism is completely mechanical, so the stability is very high compared to the electronics hopper. The hopper is a pyramids structure where a slot is provided in the bottom center, for the flow of the food powder. Beneath the hole in hopper a sliding plate is placed for opening and closing of the hole so whenever the sliding plate moves food power drops from the hole to the packet. After the weight reaches a particular level the plate closes automatically. This is done by a spring mechanism according to the stiffness of the spring. The spring is attached to a plate where the food powder falls in. When the weight of the food powder exceeds the stiffness of the spring then the plate connected with spring moves up. So the sliding plate covers the hole so that the flow of food powder has been stopped. Then the powder food product flows in a packing bag so that each packet can be sealed using a sealing machine.
