Antidiabetic activity of hiptage benghalensis in chemical-induced diabetic rats
The present study was an attempt to investigate the effect of extracts of Hiptage benghalensis on glycemia, lipid profile, lipoprotein level and antioxidant profile in STZ induced diabetic rats for 21 days. Diabetes was induced using streptozotocin (50 mg/kg i.p) and after the induction of diabetes, the animals were given with HBEE (100 mg/kg, 200 mg/kg) orally for 21 days. Blood glucose levels were determined by using a GOD-POD method with diagnostic kits. The lipid and lipoprotein level was estimated by using the respective kits. The administration of the extracts orally for 21 days showed that there was an amelioration of the lipid and lipoprotein levels significantly. After 21 days the parameters like HDL, LDL, VLDL, TC, TG, Albumin, Creatinine, total protein and glucose were estimated. The treatment with the extracts and fractions of Hiptage benghalensis improved the lipid level and lipoprotein level to a normal condition which may be attributed to its potent antidiabetic activity. The levels of urea and creatinine were significantly decreased after the treatment of STZ diabetic rats with HBEE. The treatment of diabetic rat with Hiptage benghalensis caused a noticeable elevation in serum total protein and albumin levels as compared with normal levels. The treatment with HBEE ameliorated the changes induced by STZ.

Design of dual band microstrip antenna
In the given paper a microstrip rectangular patch antenna is designed for dual frequency band applications in the ISM band and WiMAX band. The antenna contains a rectangular patch with two rectangular slots positioned on the surface of the patch which is mounted upon a grounded substrate made of FR4 epoxy. The dimensions of the patch and positioning of the rectangular slots is determined through standard antenna formulae and simulation based optimization techniques in Ansoft HFSS

Experimental study of concrete beams using prefabricated cage system
A new steel reinforcement that can be used instead of reinforced concrete members is introduced. The proposed reinforcement is called the Prefabricated Cage System (PCS) is an alternative to the rebar cage used in traditional reinforced concrete for faster, easier, and more reliable construction. Prefabricated Cage System is fabricated by perforating hollow steel tubes or steel plates. The resulting Prefabricated Cage System acts as transverse and longitudinal reinforcing steel, working compositely with the surrounding concrete to resist the applied loads. The economic benefits gained from using Prefabricated Cage System reinforcement are studied. The cost and time savings earned in structures with Prefabricated Cage System reinforced columns have been analyzed. The cost and time savings have been evaluated in a case study considering various interest rates and structural lifetimes. In this study, the various designs for the openings and the minimum percentage of steel used for the Prefabricated Cage Member for attaining the various Mechanical strength are to be found out.

Prediction of urban air pollution by a machine learning method
In addition to the impact of rapid population growth and urbanization, the level of pollution in the cities is largely modulated by meteorological factors. A compilation of meteorological data in many cities is available in Indian Government websites. They give the concentration levels of several parameters including PM2.5, NO2, CO, etc. With the help of this website data, we use Data Mining Prediction technique Collaborative Filtering and Machine learning to predict the next day data and compare with actual data. This elementary research intends to be an introductory step in the development of a web-based platform for the awareness of the residents of urban areas about the risk to human health, with potential future application in other urban areas. To make the real-time scenario Service Orientated Web Architecture is used in this system.

Survey on network smartphone on disaster recovery
In the time of disaster, the information exchange between rescue helpers and survivors is difficult and the wired connection and cellular network are also collapsed during the disaster and it also not possible to reconstruct the network to communicate with the helpers and survivors. In this paper, we discussed various technologies to help trapped survivors to reach the rescue workers in the wireless network even in the absence of cellular network using the wireless ad-hoc network, opportunistic network and using smartphones which uses wifi interface to reach survivors and rescue workers. One is using directional antenna for ad-hoc networks using inter-vehicular communication for quick reconstruction of network, and the other is opportunistic network using ad-hoc communication presents HELPME a self levelling opnet application deployed in smartphones which uses ad-hoc network for communication over wifi in the time of disaster and it forms a dynamic matching of its neighboring nodes to transmit the information with the help of ad-hoc network. And the third one is using team phone a network application for disaster recovery. Team phone consists of two components The messaging system between rescue worker and trapped survivors integrate cellular networking, ad-hoc networking, and opportunistic networking, and enables proper communication.and the self-rescue system that groups the smartphones of trapped survivors together, energy-efficiently discovers nearby messaging nodes and sends out emergency messages including location and position information.
