A review paper on broadband connectivity in rural India through TV white space
In India, there has been an immense growth in the number of telephone and broadband subscribers in the last few years. In next-generation wireless technology that converged voice and data applications will offer rural broadband connectivity for proper boost in Information and Communication Technology(ICT) to take part in all the areas of human life such as education, health, science, financial markets, security and civil protection, media, entertainment, and business development etc. Unused spectrum in the television band (so-called TV white space) has the potential to provide a new spectrum for accessing information and communication services in developing countries. “White spaces” in the UHF (Ultra High Frequency) bands that have traditionally been used for television broadcasting but the opening of TV white space (TVWS) bands for cognitive access is one of the first tangible steps to solve the problem of Spectrum scarcity in current wireless networks. One of the major hindrance to providing broadband connectivity in a semi-urban area and rural India is the lack of robust and affordable backhaul. Fiber connectivity in the terms of backhaul is being planned or provided by Government of India would reach only till rural offices named as Gram Panchayat in the Indian rural areas. In this elucidation, I articulate how TV white space can address the challenge of providing broadband connectivity to a billion plus population within India. As villages can form their local Wi-Fi clusters. The problem of connecting the Wi-Fi clusters to the optical fiber points can be addressed using a TV white space-based backhaul (middle-mile) network. I also try to cover the TV White Space technology, the pertinent standards to the TVWS system, the regulatory framework and other relevant points. In the target riverine country like India, TVWS wireless connectivity model can play a vital role to develop rural community. In this paper, my objectives are to Explore, assess and propose TV white space implementation of rural broadband in India to make Digital India.

Energy saving on 90TR chiller system at SASTRA deemed university
The Energy saving on the Chiller systems has many advantages such as cost reduction due to power savings and the reduction of the maximum demand without changing on the cooling effect. The old chiller models have a compressor driven by a constant-speed induction motor directly connected the 3phase power supply with separate Air handling unit (AHU). This system takes large starting current and the large variation in room temperature which is controlled by a static on-off controller. The energy loss is owing to frequent on-off cycles when the room temperature is close to the preset value. Hence the inverter system is introduced on the chiller for the significant energy saving and demand reduction on the power supply. The practical results on power consumption were compared and the energy consumption can be reduced to less than half that of an old one, with chiller inverter model. The investment cost in the replacement of chiller by new VRV system can be recovered in short duration by the amount of saved energy.

Ontology based digital library search system for enhanced information retrieval in engineering domain
Recent years have seen an exponential increase in the amount of available information in both print medium and electronic medium. The acceptance of electronic/digital medium has increased dramatically in recent years, which had led to the demand for more organized and accessible information in the digital medium. Hence, Digital libraries (DL’s) emerged as the digital counterpart of the traditional library system. Digital library environments had negated the traditional limits on representation and distribution of information, by facilitating global access, round the clock service, classification, and organization of the available information, by adding more information retrieval elements. Another challenge emerged with the advancement of technology, which had increased applications of new forms of information, such as multimedia files, scientific data, unstructured data, semi-structured data, heterogeneous structured data, which is being generated, stored and utilized by digital libraries worldwide. There a large amount of data generated every day for different domains such as medicine, healthcare, engineering, energy, and more. As a consequence, retrieving relevant information related to any domain from heterogeneous knowledge sources had become a challenging task. Ontologies have emerged as a potential solution in this field, as they have the ability to manage information resources efficiently, manage web complexities, and automate bibliofigureic storage and annotation management and more. Ontologies play a significant role in digital libraries by promoting interoperability by defining a common vocabulary for the ease of sharing information in a particular domain. Ontologies also tackle the challenge presented by the availability of heterogeneous information sources and improve the accuracy of information retrieval. This paper discusses, the need and potential applications of domain-specific ontologies and semantic technologies in DL’s, which can be used to address the issue of increasing volume of information as well as enhancing the information retrieval capacity of Digital Libraries. The paper also discusses the designing and developing of domain-specific ontologies for Digital Library and suggest a model of Ontology-based Digital Library search system which retrieves exact results for queries and eliminates irrelevant results by having refined queries

Comparison of strength parameters between AAC blocks and clay bricks for building construction using STAAD Pro
Burnt clay brick is a predominant construction material used in construction. The CO2 emissions in the brick manufacturing process had been acknowledged as a significant factor to global warming. Therefore, now a- days we should focus more on seeking environmental solutions for greener environment. To fulfil this objective, new construction materials can be used for construction. One such material i.e., AAC blocks can be used as an alternative material for construction. This work highlights the comparative statistical analysis of cost-effectiveness of using AAC blocks instead of traditional red bricks. The usage of AAC blocks gives a prospective solution to construction industry along with environmental preservation. In this work, an attempt has been made to compare AAC blocks as a replacement material to red bricks. This work shows the analysis and comparison between the G+6 and G+2 building with different material in terms of bricks. The bricks which are taken for first building analysis is burnt clay bricks and for second building analysis is AAC blocks. This analysis is done by STAAD-Pro software and in result shows the reduction in overall cost of construction by using AAC blocks.
