Implementation Of A Democratic Decentralized Welfare Scheme : An Institutional Perspective
(2016-04-29)Decentralization leads to functional and financial devolution of authority, induces more transparency in the system and puts emphasis on local needs. It creates platforms to voice and institutionalize the interests of ... -
An importance sampling in N Sphere Monte Carlo and its performance analysis for high dimensional integration
Statistical methods for estimating integrals are indispensable when the number of dimensions (parameters) become greater than ~ 10, where numerical methods are unviable in general. Well-known statistical methods like ... -
Improvement Of Piston Ring Quality : A Case Study
(Indian Institute of Science, 2006-02-21)Automobiles have become an integral part of our daily life as more and more mopeds, motor cycles, cars, trucks, busses and trains are being used for transport. The main parts of an automotive engine are cylinder, piston ... -
Improving Data Center Utilisation by Reducing Fragmentation
Virtualization enables better server consolidation and utilisation compared to stand-alone servers running a single workload. This enabled wide-spread cloud adoption among many organizations. Data center utilisation is ... -
Improving Healing Outcomes in Diabetic Wounds by Understanding and Modulating Immune Responses
Diabetic Foot Ulcers (DFUs) are chronic wounds that show delayed or absence of healing in individuals with diabetes. Currently, diabetic wounds are managed clinically through regular debridement, pressure off-loading, ... -
Improving photoacoustic imaging with model compensating and deep learning methods
Photoacoustic imaging is a hybrid biomedical imaging technique combining optical ab- sorption contrast with ultrasonic resolution. It is a non-invasive technique that is scalable to reveal structural, functional, and ... -
Improving The Communication Performance Of I/O Intensive And Communication Intensive Application In Cluster Computer Systems

Industry 4.0 Maturity and Readiness Assessment: A case of a Manufacturing Organization
The manufacturing sector is the economic backbone of a country and has traditionally played a key role in the growth of almost every country in the world. In India, the manufacturing sector contributes 17 percent to the ... -
Influence of Lot Sizing on Lead Time Error Costs in M.R.P. Systems- a Computer Simulation Study
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-03-11)Timing of ordering of inventory items is of very great importance in Materials Requirement Planning. Uncertainties in timing can have an adverse effect on the system performance. Most often the lead time variation contribute ... -
Information Theoretic Approach To Extractive Text Summarization
(2009-04-13)Automatic text summarization techniques, which can reduce a source text to a summary text by content generalization or selection have assumed signifi- cance in recent times due to the ever expanding information explosion ... -
Insights into signalling and crosstalk in two-component signalling systems of Mycobacterium tuberculosis
Tuberculosis (TB), caused by the pathogen Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), has very recently reclaimed the position of the leading cause of deaths in humans from a single infection agent. This suggests a dire need to ... -
An Integrated Systems Biology Approach to Study Drug Resistance in Mycobacteria
(2018-06-23)Emergence of drug resistance is a major problem in the treatment of many diseases including tuberculosis. To tackle the problem, it is essential to obtain a global perspective of the molecular mechanisms by which bacteria ... -
Integrating Computational Tools and Models to Study Positive-sense RNA Virus Lifecycle
Positive-sense single-stranded RNA ((+)RNA) viruses pose significant challenges to public health. Notable families such as Enteroviridae, Flaviviridae, and Coronaviridae have caused epidemics (Dengue, Poliomyelitis, Zika) ... -
