FOREWARD

Over the last few years there is significant change in the quality of

project work taken up by the students at MSEC. The students

belonging to all branches identify the challenges a common man is

facing in day to day activities and are finding out simple and

innovative solutions to solve the existing problems with design and

development of prototype models. The students are also able grab

internship opportunities at reputed organizations in carrying out UG

projects. The R&D centre has been established to support the

deserving students and the required hardware and software facility is provided for students to

carry out project work within the college. The students have successfully completed the project

work and it the responsibility of the management to encourage and showcase the efforts taken up

by students. The Book of Project Abstracts is one such initiative to publish the project abstracts

every academic year, and circulate the same to top industries and government organizations. The

aim of this initiative is to attract industrialists, scientific community and academicians about the

inventions and contributions made by young engineers in solving societal relevant and

technically challenging problems, and seeking their support to assist students in internships,

placements and entrepreneurship.

I also congratulate R&D centre for taking this initiative in publishing this first volume of

Book of Project Abstracts I also congratulate Department HODs and project coordinators in

supporting students in successfully completing their project work and also taking efforts in

bringing up this first volume.

I wish all of them best of luck and hope to see many more such initiatives to bridge the

gap between industry and academics.

Abstract:Traditional input systems for interaction with machines include keyboards, joystick or the

mouse. But in contrast, in this report, we propose a “Human Machine Interfacing Device”utilizing hand gestures to communicate with computers and other embedded systems acting as anintermediary to an appliance.

Gesture recognition pertains to recognizing meaningful expressions of motion by ahuman, involving the hands, arms, face, head, and/or body. It is of utmost importance indesigning an intelligent and efficient human–computer interface. Those suffering from physicalhandicaps such as Carpel Tunnel Syndrome, Rheumatoid Arthritis or Quadriplegia may beunable to use conventional forms of input. Developments in field of communication haveenabled computer commands being executed using hand gestures. Inertial navigation sensor likean accelerometer is utilized to get dynamic as well as static profile of movement to navigate themouse on the computer or provide commands to appliances, thus accelerometer profiles areconverted into wireless interactivity. The device involves non-tactile interaction with machinesto manipulate or control them in accordance with hand gestures. The applications envisioned:interaction using gesture technology for effective communication empowering physicallychallenged to interact with machines and computing devices including 3-D graphic interactionsand simulations.

Title: AUTOMATED FACE RECOGNITION AND WARNINGSYSTEM FOR HIGH SECURITYProject Team: Supervisors:Shwetha P. 1ME09EC062Shwetha R. 1ME09EC063Soumya S. 1ME09EC064Yukthi Simha D. 1ME09EC082

Abstract:Automatic recognition of people is a challenging problem which has received muchattentionduring recent years due to its many applications in different fields. Face recognition isone of those challenging problems and up to date, there is no technique that provides a robustsolution to all situations. This project presents a new technique for human face recognition. Thetechnique uses an image-based approach towards artificial intelligence by removing redundantdata from face images through image compression using the two-dimensional discrete cosinetransform (2D-DCT). The DCT extracts features from face images based on skin color. Featurevectorsare constructed by computing DCT coefficients. A self-organizing map (SOM) using anunsupervised learning technique is used to classify DCT-based feature vectors into groups toidentify if the subject in the input image is “present” or “not present” in the image database.Facerecognition with SOM is carried out by classifying intensity values of gray scale pixels intodifferent groups. Evaluation is performed in MATLAB using an image database of 25 faceimages, containing five subjects and each subject having 5 images with different facialexpressions. The main advantage of this technique is its high-speed processing capability andlow computational requirements, in terms of both speed and memory utilization.

Abstract:Major population of India is depending on Agriculture so farms growing in size along

with that size of the technology adoption to farms also increasing exponentially but previouslythese works are carried out by farmer himself along with protecting crops by insects. So todaytechnology is ruling the world means that work of the farmer can be shared with machineries i.e.with robots which carry out the tasks automatically. Some of the adopted machineries aretractors, pesticide sprayers etc. In most of the cases a small agricultural robots are ineffective inperforming farming jobs and these often require large quantity of material which is difficult toput on to ground because this causes the problem during seeding, spraying pesticides and alsoduring harvesting of the crops so robots has to be developed in such a way that it should helpfulto farmer in all the manner.So our aim of the project is also same i.e. use the small machine/robot which carryout sprayingaction with small area by mapping and monitoring soil compaction. A smaller robot is ideal, as itis more gentle on the crops but also to the ground. This is due to the lower weight compared to atractor, causing much lesser soil compaction. The degree of soil compaction is important toconsider, especially when dealing with monitoring and mapping as this is often performedmultiple times throughout the year, as soil compaction can cause a number of problems, such asreduced crop growth and de-nitrification.

Abstract:With the increasing number of high-rise and large-scale buildings, modern buildings arebecoming intelligent, and are incurring high construction costs and requiring carefulmaintenance. Maintenance works for high-rise buildings significantly depend on human labor,unlike other construction processes that are gradually being automated. The resulting accidentsmay produce very high social and economic losses. To address this problem, herein, this paperproposes a building maintenance system that is mounted on a frame. In specific, cleaning abuilding facade which is directly subjected to minimize human labour, which improves theprocess efficiency and economic feasibility. Semi-automatic glass cleaner is a prototype whichcleans glasses on high-rise buildings with reduced human effort and more safety for humanbeings.The need of such applications is steadily rising, since labour requirements are gettingmore severe. Furthermore, architecture is getting less and less restrained with each technicalinnovation to elevate the complexity of architectural structures. The maintenance doesn't seem tobe a major concern for the architects during the design process, which leads to undesirablecompromises afterwards, involving unsightly maintenance scaffolding, blemishing the building'saesthetic splendour. The solution is to design an attractive maintenance apparatus, whichcomplements its environment during operation, being invisible during activity.

Abstract:Whenever the bike meet with an accident the sensor will first detect the impact and if the

impact is more than the threshold then it will send some information to the Microcontrollerwhich in turn communicates with GPS to acquire the location, then system will send client Idand location to server using GSM modem. Server or Hospital sends this information to thenearest ambulance. In every 5 minutes all the ambulances will updates their current location tothe server using GPS and GSM. Server or Hospital will then send the ambulance to the spot.In this project an GPS ENABLED HELMET is a safety Helmet that calls emergencywhen the wearer is rendered unconscious in accident and tells rescuer the causality’slocation. The Helmet is based on Wireless Impact Guardian or WIG . The Helmet isactivated upon wearing it ,detects a hit in the head and beeps for a minute or so whenit happens.If the beep is not turned off because the wearer is unconscious or disabled abuilt-in communication device automatically calls emergency .When a shock will besensed the GPS will transmit the current Grid Points(Global Coordinates Data along withtime and No.satellite) through a GSM to the Hospital Receiver unit which will alsocontain same TRX unit connected with MCU .These received Coordinates then displayedon Hyper Terminal. The location of the accident victim ,which is identified by the WIG’sbuilt-in GPS device ,is included in the emergency call to guide rescuers especially whenthe causality is alone in a remote area.

Abstract:Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) is a transmission technique which

ensures efficient utilization of the spectrum by allowing overlap of carriers. OFDM is acombination of modulation and multiplexing that is used in the transmission of information anddata. Compared with the other wireless transmission techniques like Frequency DivisionMultiple Access (FDMA), Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA), OFDM has numerousadvantages like high spectral density, its robustness to channel fading, impulse noise, multipathfading, etc. Due to this it finds wide application in Digital Audio Broadcasting (DAB), DigitalVideo Broadcasting (DVB), and Wireless LAN. Most of the wireless LAN standards like IEEE802.11a or IEEE 802.11g use the OFDM as the main multiplexing scheme for better use ofspectrum. In fact in the 4G telecommunication system OFDMA is the backbone of it.

The objective of our project is to design a baseband 16-QAM OFDM transceiver andimplement it on FPGA hardware. The transceiver designed could be used in development ofmany communication schemes like Digital Video Broadcasting, IEEE802.11 standard,IEEE802.16 standard, Wireless USB.In our project all modules are designed using VHDLprogramming language and a 16-QAM module have been implemented on FPGA. The softwaresimulation of the OFDM system is also done using MATLAB/SIMULINK tool in order to studyits performance over AWGN channel and obtain BER vs. SNR plot.




















TITLE: REAL-TIME MAV VIDEO STABILIZATION USINGMATLABProject Team: Supervisors:Amit Kumar 1ME09EC007Biswajeet Moharana 1ME09EC019Megha Chandini 1ME09EC041Kumar Rohit 1ME09EC055

Abstract: μAVs are “six-degree-of-freedom aerial robots, whose mobility can deploy a usefulmicro payload to a remote or otherwise hazardous location where it may perform any of a varietyof missions, including reconnaissance and surveillance, targeting, tagging and bio-chemicalsensing.” And Video stabilization is a family of techniques used to reduce blurring associatedwith the motion of a camera during exposure. Specifically, it compensates for pan and tilt(angular movement, equivalent to yaw and pitch) of a camera or other imaging device. Withvideo cameras, camera shake causes visible frame-to-frame jitter in the recorded video. Inastronomy, the problem of lens-shake is added to by variations in the atmosphere over time,which will cause the apparent positions of objects to change. Video imagery obtained from theseplatforms is difficult to exploit due to poor visual quality, moderate to extreme jitter, noise invideo transmission, Motion blur, and Low cost optics. Operational constraints often limit theavailability of auxiliary metadata, such as platform position and pose, that is typically availableon larger unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) platforms. Traditional methods for recovering ego-motion parameters for stabilization purposes do not perform well for MAVs due to poorlyconstrained platform motion and poor video quality. General purpose techniques, independent ofspecific sensor and operational constraints, are necessary to provide enhanced real-time situationawareness from MAV-based video.

Abstract:In this project a FPGA based Architecture for image features extraction using GLCM isproposed. The features are Contrast, Correlation, Energy, and Homogeneity is extracted usingGLCM. The basic approach used here is that the texture feature values that are extracted fromGray Level Co-occurrence matrix (GLCM) gives the typical values for feature analysis. Practicaland theoretical values of features for different textures are analyzed. The proposed architecture isimplemented on Xilinx Spratan-3 FPGA using Verilog coding and waveforms are analyzed usingChip scope.Considering MAV as an example to capture the image in various directions is illustrated in blockdiagram above the MAV captures the image in different directions from remote places, analysisand then transmitted via transmitter. It is received through the receiver and is sent to imageprocessing block, where the processing of image takes place. Feature extraction block extractsthe features of processed image which is then fed to decision making block to decide whatactions to be taken by MAV further. Here feature extraction block includes computation ofGLCM using FPGA which reduces the execution time required for computing GLCM usingsoftware like Matlab.

Abstract:This report describes the development of small rolling and hopping robots that are useful formany tasks in unknown rugged terrain, and are especially suited to celestial exploration in smallgravity environments. the family of hopping or jumping, described here are characterized bydiscontinuous motion, whereby the robot stops after each jump to regain the upright position,recharge its jumping mechanism and localize itself. We describe the evolution of our hoppingrobot concept by way of prototypes that can be developed. These theoretical prototypes showthat a small robot can move effectively by hopping provided that it is equipped with steering,jumping and self-righting capabilities. This report gives the detailed pictures and descriptions ofthe mechanism of various prototypes. A hopping robot can jump over the barrier several timeshigher than its own height. The combination of the hopping movement and the wheelingmovement can greatly enhance the scope of robot’s activities. In this paper, a novel five-shankhopping mechanism was employed to build the wheeling hopping combination scout robot. Thenonlinear character of the five-shank hopping mechanism was analyzed and then used in theproposed nonlinear spring-mass model for the robot. The rules of robot’s movement werededuced, influencing factors of the jumping height were analyzed and the countermeasure wasadopted. Finally, a simulation analysis and an experiment of the robot's movement were carriedout. The results showed that the robot has strong locomotives and survival ability.

Abstract:In this research, Electromyography (EMG) signal analysis from the right rectus femoris

muscle is performed during walk. Wavelet Transform (WT) has been applied for removing noisefrom the surface EMG. Gaussianity tests are conducted to understand changes in musclecontraction and to quantify the effectiveness of the noise removal process. Results show that theproposed method can effectively remove noise from the raw EMG signals for further analysis.The technology of EMG recording is relatively new. There are still limitations in detection and

characterization of existing nonlinearities in the electromyography (EMG). Wavelet packets areadvance and effective method for analyzing signal processing work. EMG signal represents theneuromuscular activities and analysis of EMG signals can lead to diagnose myopathy andneuropathy related muscular diseases. Here it is analyzed the filtering performance by using biorwavelet methods where the mean, is calculated at different global threshold.

Abstract:Cloud computing has emerged as one of the most influential paradigms in the IT industry inrecent years. Since this new computing technology requires users to entrust their valuable datato cloud providers, there have been increasing security and privacy concerns on outsourced data.Several schemes employing attribute-based encryption (ABE) have been proposed for accesscontrol of outsourced data in cloud computing; however, most of them suffer from inflexibilityin implementing complex access control policies. In order to realize scalable, flexible, and fine-grained access control of outsourced data in cloud computing, in this paper, we proposehierarchical attribute-set-based encryption (HASBE) by extending ciphertext-policy attribute-set-based encryption (ASBE) with a hierarchical structure of users. The proposed scheme notonly achieves scalability due to its hierarchical structure, but also inherits flexibility and fine-grained access control in supporting compound attributes of ASBE. In addition, HASBEemploys multiple value assignments for access expiration time to deal with user revocationmore efficiently than existing schemes. We formally prove the security of HASBE based onsecurity of the cipher text-policy attribute-based encryption (CP-ABE) scheme by Bethencourtet al. and analyze its performance and computational complexity. We implement our schemeand show that it is both efficient and flexible in dealing with access control for outsourced datain cloud computing with comprehensive experiments.




Title: SECURED TRUST: A DYNAMIC TRUST COMPUTATION MODELFOR SECURED COMMUNICATION IN MULTIAGENT SYSTEMSProject Team: Supervisors:Chaithra H. 1ME09CS007Rakesh Yadav M. N. 1ME09CS032Ravi Kone 1ME09CS035Santosh K. G. 1ME09CS037

Abstract:Security and privacy issues have become critically important with the fast expansion of multiagent systems. Most network applications such as pervasive computing, grid computing, and P2Pnetworks can be viewed as multi agent systems which are open, anonymous, and dynamic innature. Such characteristics of multi agent systems introduce vulnerabilities and threats toproviding secured communication. One feasible way to minimize the threats is to evaluate thetrust and reputation of the interacting agents. Many trust/reputation models have done so, butthey fail to properly evaluate trust when malicious agents start to behave in an unpredictableway. Another aspect of multi agent systems which is becoming critical for sustaining goodservice quality is the even distribution of workload among service providing agents. Mosttrust/reputation models have not yet addressed this issue. So, to cope with the strategicallyaltering behavior of malicious agents and to distribute workload as evenly as possible amongservice providers; a dynamic trust computation model called “Secured Trust”. We first analyzethe different factors related to evaluating the trust of an agent and then propose a comprehensivequantitative model for measuring such trust. We also propose a novel load-balancing algorithmbased on the different factors defined in our model. Simulation results indicate that our modelcompared to other existing models can effectively cope with strategic behavioral change ofmalicious agents and at the same time efficiently distribute workload among the serviceproviding agents under stable condition.

Abstract:The multihop routing offers little protection against identity deception through replayingrouting information. An adversary can exploit this defect to launch various harmful or evendevastating attacks against the routing protocols, including sinkhole attacks, wormhole attacks.The situation is further aggravated by mobile and harsh network conditions. Traditionalcryptographic techniques or efforts at developing trust-aware routing protocols do noteffectively address this severe problem. To secure the network against adversaries misdirectingthe multihop routing, we have designed and implemented TARF, a robust trust-aware routingframework for networks. Without tight time synchronization or known geographic information,TARF provides trustworthy and energy-efficient route. Most importantly, TARF proveseffective against those harmful attacks developed out of identity deception; the resilience ofTARF is verified through extensive evaluation with both simulation and experiments onnetwork conditions.

Abstract:IP trace back is a name given to any method for reliably determining the origin of a packet onthe Internet. Due to the trusting nature of the IP protocol, the source IP address of a packet isnot authenticated. As a result, the source address in an IP packet can be falsified (IP addressspoofing) allowing for Denial Of Service attacks (DoS) or one-way attacks (where the responsefrom the victim host is so well known that return packets need not be received to continue theattack[clarification needed]). The problem of finding the source of a packet is called the IPtrace back problem. Most existing approaches to this problem have been tailored toward DoSattack detection. Such solutions require high numbers of packets to converge on the attack path.With the rapid growth of the Internet, various internet applications are developed for differentkinds of users. Due to the decreasing cost of Internet access and its increasing availability froma plethora of devices and applications, the impact of attacks becomes more significant. Todisrupt the service of a server, the sophisticated attackers may launch a distributed denial ofservice (DDoS) attack. Based on the number of packets to deny the service of a server, we cancategorize DDoS attacks into flooding-based attacks and software exploit attacks. The majorsignature of flooding-based attacks is a huge amount of forged source packets to exhaust avictim’s limited resources. Another type of DoS attack, software exploit attacks, attacks a hostusing the host’s vulnerabilities with few packets (e.g., Teardrop attack and LAND attack).Since most edge routers do not check the origin’s address of a packet, core routers havedifficulties in recognizing the source of packets. The source IP address in a packet can bespoofed when an attacker wants to hide himself from tracing. Therefore, IP spoofing makeshosts hard to defend against a DDoS attack. For these reasons, developing a mechanism tolocate the real source of impersonation attacks has become an important issue now a day.For tracing the real source of flooding-based attack packets, we propose a traceback schemethat marks routers’ interface numbers and integrates packet logging with a hash table (RIHT) todeal with these logging and marking issues in IP trace back.

Abstract:Recently, several data aggregation schemes based on privacy homomorphism encryption havebeen proposed and investigated on wireless sensor networks. These data aggregation schemesprovide better security compared with traditional aggregation since cluster heads (aggregator)can directly aggregate the cipher texts without decryption; consequently, transmissionoverhead is reduced. However, the base station only retrieves the aggregated result, notindividual data, which causes two problems. First, the usage of aggregation functions isconstrained. For example, the base station cannot retrieve the maximum value of all sensingdata if the aggregated result is the summation of sensing data. Second, the base station cannotconfirm data integrity and authenticity via attaching message digests or signatures to eachsensing sample. In this paper, we attempt to overcome the above two drawbacks. In ourdesign, the base station can recover all sensing data even these data has been aggregated. Thisproperty is called “recoverable.” Experiment results demonstrate that the transmissionoverhead is still reduced even if our approach is recoverable on sensing data. Furthermore, thedesign has been generalized and adopted on both homogeneous and heterogeneous wirelesssensor networks.

Abstract:Internet services and applications have become an inextricable part of daily life, enablingcommunication and the management of personal information from anywhere. To accommodatethis increase in application and data complexity, web services have moved to a multitier designwherein the web server runs the application front-end logic and data are outsourced to a databaseor file server. Objective of this project is to detect intrusion in Multitier Web Applications.Double Guard, an IDS that models the network behavior of user session across both the front-endweb server and the back-end database.Some previous approaches have detected intrusions orvulnerabilities by statically analyzing the source code or executable. Others dynamically trackthe information flow to understand taint propagations and detect intrusions. In DoubleGuard, thenew container-based web server architecture enables us to separate the different informationflows by each session. This provides a means of tracking the information flow from the webserver to the database server for each session. Our approach also does not require us to analyzethe source code or know the application logic. For the static web page, our DoubleGuardapproach does not require application logic for building a model. However, as we will discuss,although we do not require the full application logic for dynamic web services, we do need toknow the basic user operations in order to model normal behavior.

Abstract:Microwave biometric radar technology has attracted lots of attention nowadays due to itspotential applications in healthcare delivery and monitoring. Many research groups andlaboratories have been working on continuous wave (CW) radar for life detection non-contactvital sign monitoring and biometric characterization due to its simple system block and lowdevelopment cost. However, CW radar does not render any range/location information of thetarget, which is quite important in assisted-living, trapped people searching, and through wallhostage rescue efforts. In addition, it is very difficult to detect or monitor multiple human objectsusing CW radar because it cannot localize or separate the multiple targets. In this project, wepresent a UWB biometric sensor which is based on pulse Doppler radar technology and can beused for simultaneously detecting multiple targets in highly cluttered environment.

Abstract:As shown in figure Saturn is overlay architecture for large-scale data networks maintained overChord Distributed Hash Tables (DHTs) that efficiently processes range queries and ensuresaccess load balancing and fault-tolerance. Placing consecutive data values in neighboring peersis desirable in DHTs since it accelerates range query processing; however, such a placement ishighly susceptible to load imbalances. At the same time, DHTs may be susceptible to nodedepartures/failures and high data availability and fault tolerance are significant issues. Saturndeals effectively with these problems order-preserving architecture. The use of a order-preserving hash function ensures fast range query processing. Replication across and within datarings forms the foundation over which our mechanisms are developed, ensuring query loadbalancing and fault tolerance, respectively. Our detailed experimentation study shows stronggains in range query processing efficiency, access load balancing, and fault tolerance, with lowreplication overheads. The significance of Saturn is not only that it effectively tackles all threeissues together—i.e., supporting range queries, ensuring load balancing, and providing faulttolerance over DHTs—but also that it can be applied on top of any order-preserving DHTenabling it to dynamically handle replication and, thus, to trade off replication costs for fair loaddistribution and fault tolerance.

Abstract:Present method: The pressing station is used for pressing the assembled Component withhelp of a Hydraulic cylinder. The system consists of a Load cell and a LVDT .The load cell isused for measuring the load at which the component are pressed, and at what distance thecomponent is pressed is measured by LVDT. A PC is used for displaying the load and thedisplacement by means of a graph.The output from the load and the LVDT is coupled to an amplifier, this signal is againconverted to a measuring signal through NI card and is matched with the preset programmedvalue, if the desired load and displacement are achieved with respect to the preset values onthe PC, and then OK indication is provided for the operator for easy identification. All thesecontrols are done using a relay logic circuit.Proposed method: The latest technology provides a compact unit called Kistler unit whichmeasures and display the graph of load v/s Displacement and provides the result instantly andit can also be programmed up to 16 programs based on the requirements. The relay logiccircuit of the whole system is replaced by an s7200 PLC. The outputs of the Kistler unit can becoupled to the control circuit for providing indication OK or NOT OK.

Abstract:Network based attacks have become a serious threat to the critical information infrastructure on

which we depend. To stop or repel network-based attacks, it is critical to be able to identify the

source of the attack. Attackers, however, go to some lengths to conceal their identities and origin,

using a variety of countermeasures. As an example, they may spoof the IP source address of the

attack traffic. Methods of tracing spoofed traffic, generally known as IP trace back have been

developed to address this countermeasure. Another common and effective countermeasure used by

network-based intruders to hide their identity is to connect through a sequence of intermediate hosts

or stepping stones, before attacking the final target.

Abstract:The Licklider Transmission Protocol (LTP) is designed to provide retransmission-based

reliability over links characterized by extremely long message round-trip times and/or frequent

interruptions in connectivity. Communication in interplanetary space is the most prominent

example of this sort of environment, and LTP is principally aimed at supporting "long-haul"

reliable transmission over deep-space RF links. Specifically, LTP is intended to serve as a

reliable "convergence layer" protocol, underlying the Delay-Tolerant Networking (DTN) Bundle

protocol (BP), in DTN deployments where data links are characterized by very long round-trip

times. A coding technique called Space link simulator (SLS) which implements the LTP, can be

used as a disruption tolerant networking, which improves on simple error detection schemes by

enabling the receiver to correct errors once they are detected. This reduces the need for

retransmissions. SLS works by adding check bits to the outgoing data stream. Adding more

check bits reduces the amount of available bandwidth, but also enables the receiver to correct for

more errors. Space link simulator is particularly well suited for satellite transmissions, where

bandwidth is reasonable but latency is significant.

Abstract:Ad-hoc networks are becoming an effective tool for many mission critical applications such as troop

coordination in combat field, situational awareness, etc. These applications are characterized by the

hostile environment that they serve in and by the multicast-style of communication traffic. Therefore,

authenticating the source and ensuring the integrity of the message traffic become a fundamental

requirement for the operation and management of the network. However, the limited computation and

communication resources, the large scale deployment and the unguaranteed connectivity to trusted

authorities make known solutions for wired and single-hop wireless networks inappropriate. This

project presents a new Tiered Authentication scheme for Multicast traffic (TAM) for large scale

dense ad-hoc networks.TAM combines the advantages of the time asymmetry and the secret

information asymmetry paradigms and exploits network clustering to reduce overhead and ensure

scalability. Multicast traffic within a cluster employs a one-way hash function chain in order to

authenticate the message source. Cross-cluster multicast traffic includes message authentication

codes (MACs) that are based on a set of keys. Each cluster uses a unique subset of keys to look for its

distinct combination of valid MACs in the message in order to authenticate the source. The

simulation and analytical results demonstrate the performance advantage of TAM in terms of

bandwidth overhead and delivery delay.

Abstract:The basic objective of this project is to re-capture the energy from the natural air (wind energy)and to generate power from the wind turbulence made by the fast moving vehicles on the nationhighways. It can be mainly used to produce power in the highways which passes through ruralareas and isolated places. It is a great difficulty to supply power for the street lights and otherfacilities like toll gates etc in rural areas and isolated places. Where otherwise the power issupplied from the distant power stations and there is so much of power loss in between thestations.The metedology of this arrangement is as follows; We mount horizontal turbines above the roadways. These turbines would be driven by the natural wind power and the air turbulence

generated by the fast moving vehicles. The turbine will be fixed to the horizontal steel tube structures (which are usually used to

hold the boards and signage). The electricity generated by these turbines can be fed back to the grid.

Therefore with the increasing levels of wind turbine penetration in modern power systems, gridconnection issues have posed several new challenges to wind turbine design and development.The future success of different wind turbine concepts will strongly depend on their ability ofcomplying with both market expectations and the requirements of grid utility companies

Abstract:Since there are no commercially available producer gas engine, adoption of natural gas enginewith minimum modifications is the one of the options. However major modification is requiredin fuel supply system.Also there are no carburetors commercially available for such low densityfuel.Air/fuel ratio characteristic exert a large influence on exhaust emission and fuel economy inInternal Combustion engine.An ideal carburetor would control and provide a mixture of desiredAir-fuel (A/F) ratio to the engine over its entire range of operation of the engine.To ensure proper performance, Carburetor designed should have reproducible and clearadjustment procedures. It is necessary to have the carburetor which will maintain required air tofuel ratio with load variation, smooth operation with minimal pressure loss.A set of geometrical configurations of a specially designed carburetor is comprehensivelyanalysed for its mixing performance and pressure losses in the device with CFD modelling.The current design aspect has provided a good performance of carburetor for application withgases of low energy density like producer gas and coal gas for engine applications.The results indicate that there is a good mixing of the constituent gases in the geometriesconsidered and the optimization has allowed to have reduced pressure drop.

Abstract:There are two important goals of admission control algorithms. The first one is to guarantee thecontracted QoS for real-time flows, and the other one is to achieve high network utilization. Wepropose a new admission control scheme to achieve these goals. We consider delay as a QoStarget because real-time flows are more sensitive to delay than loss. If admission-controlledtraffic is treated in the same way as best-effort traffic that is not subject to admission control ateach router, then the required QoS may not be guaranteed due to the uncontrolled traffic rate ofthe best-effort traffic.In the proposed scheme, admission decision is made for each Flow at the ingress routers, but it isscalable because per-flow States are not managed and the admission algorithm is simple.Aningress router manages the admissible bandwidth, which is a threshold for admission control, foreach relevant egress router.Since the admissible bandwidth is calculated considering the delayQoS, it is possible to guarantee the delay performance by the proposed admission controlscheme.

Abstract:Augmented reality (AR) is a live, direct or indirect, view of a physical, real-world

environment whose elements are augmented by computer-generated sensory input such as sound,

video, graphics or GPS data. It is related to a more general concept called mediated reality, in

which a view of reality is modified (possibly even diminished rather than augmented) by a

computer. As a result, the technology functions by enhancing one’s current perception of reality.

By contrast, virtual reality replaces the real world with a simulated one. Augmentation is

conventionally in real-time and in semantic context with environmental elements, such as notes or

any details about topics which is related to any course like Engineering MCA, BCA etc...

With the help of advanced AR technology (e.g. adding computer vision and object

recognition) the information about the surrounding real world of the user becomes interactive and

digitally manipulable artificial information about the textbooks and its objects can be overlaid on

the real world.

This thesis focuses on Android application development techniques needed to implement amobile application that consists of features used at e-Learning. Since there is not a single sourceavailable to developers that explains such techniques, this thesis represents a unique manual forsuch development. Based on the similarity of features, mainly in terms of data nature and access,five techniques are defined in a step-by-step procedural manner. This is accomplished byoutlining the development techniques and presenting them “in action” with coding examplesfrom a fully developed demo application. As a result, the demo application demonstratesfunctional solutions to research problems that are able to operate on an actual Android device.

Abstract:Cloud computing has been envisioned as the next-generation architecture of IT enterprise. Incontrast to traditional solutions, where the IT services are under proper physical, logical andpersonnel controls, cloud computing moves the application software and databases to the largedata centers, where the management of the data and services may not be fully trustworthy. Thisunique attribute, however, poses many new security challenges which have not been wellunderstood. In this article, we focus on cloud data storage security, which has always been animportant aspect of quality of service. To ensure the correctness of users' data in the cloud, wepropose an effective and flexible distributed scheme with two salient features, opposing to itspredecessors. By utilizing the homomorphic token with distributed verification of erasure-codeddata, our scheme achieves the integration of storage correctness insurance and data errorlocalization, i.e., the identification of misbehaving server (s). Unlike most prior works, the newscheme further supports secure and efficient dynamic operations on data blocks, including: dataupdate, delete and append. Extensive security and performance analysis shows that the proposedscheme is highly efficient and resilient against Byzantine failure, malicious data modificationattack, and even server colluding attacks.

Abstract:This report assured the integrity of the customer’s data in the cloud. Here the data is physicallynot accessible to the user from cloud. Cloud provide a way for the user to check if the integrity ofhis data is maintained or is compromised. In this paper we provide a scheme which gives a proofof data integrity in the cloud which the customer can employ to check the correctness of his datain the cloud. This proof can be agreed upon by both the cloud and the customer and can beincorporated in the Service Level agreement (SLA). Proof of data integrity protocol just checksthe integrity of data.

As data generation is far outpacing data storage it proves costly for small firms to frequentlyupdate their hardware whenever additional data is created. Also maintaining the storages can bea difficult task. It transmitting the file across the network to the client can consume heavybandwidths. The problem is further complicated by the fact that the owner of the data may be asmall device, like a PDA (personal digital assist) or a mobile phone, which have limited CPUpower, battery power and communication bandwidth. To reduce the high resource costs,computing hash value for large data files and reduce the data encryption complexity, we developa scheme which data integrity proof in cloud storage.

Abstract:Water is the most important liquid in the world. Without water, there would be no life at least notthe way we know it. In today’s condition, the need for Pure Drinking Water is becoming theissue for the common man. The consumption of Bottled water has been increasing consistentlyover the last decade, even in countries where tap water quality is considered excellent. Thispaper discusses some of the reasons why people decide for an option that is often moreexpensive and less comfortable than tap water. Consumer surveys usually stress two mainfactors: dissatisfaction with tap water organoleptics (especially taste) and health/risk concerns.However, many other factors are involved, including demographic variables and the perceivedquality of the water source. Trust in tap water companies also seems to influence publicbehavior. A clearer picture of bottled water consumption can be achieved when different aspectsare considered.

Insectssuch as fly possess a visual system that is fast, precise and reliable hence, they are able to executeflawless landing on the rim of a container, instantaneously avoid obstacles while flying. Insectshave immobile eyes with fixed-focus optics, the eyes are also positioned very close hence possessinferior spatial acuity. Highly accurate real-time stabilization and navigation of UGVs of MAVs ismajor research interest as these systems are used for surveillance, security, search and rescuemission. Thus design, modeling and implementation of Bioinspired visual system on UGVs andMAVs could be an accessible methodology to replace the traditional image processing algorithmsin controlling flying robots. Motion detection is one of the most basic tasks a visual system has toperform. Motion information is not explicitly represented at the output level of retinalphotoreceptors. Instead, it has to be computed from the changing retinal images by the nervoussystem. Using an elaborated motion detector model and some receptive fields, some properties ofthe biological visual system have been converted into a computational model for engineeringapplications to estimate ego-motion. In this work, motion detection and velocity estimation modelis designed and developed on FPGA platform for autonomous navigation of MAVs.




Title: DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT OF NANO-BIO SENSORS FOR PROSTATECANCER AND CERVICAL CANCER DETECTIONAbstract:Cancer diagnosis and treatment are of great interest due to the widespread occurrence of thediseases, high death rate, and recurrence after treatment. Existing cancer screening methodsinclude: (1) the Papanicolau test for women to detect cervical cancer and mammography to detectbreast cancer, (2) prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level detection in blood sample for men todetect prostate cancer, (3) occult blood detection for colon cancer, and (4) endoscopy, CT scans,X-ray, ultrasound imaging and MRI for various cancer detection. These traditional diagnosticmethods however are not very powerful methods when it comes to cancer detection at very earlystages. As well, some of the screening methods are quite costly and not available for many people.Therefore, the development of technology that is specific and reliable for detecting cancers atearly stages and is easily accessible so that it can function as the first-line guidance is of utterimportance.Cancer of the uterine cervix is the most common cancer affecting Indian women with an estimated142,000 new cases coming to light every year and 77,000 women dying of the disease. Cervicalcancer is the second most common type of cancer in women worldwide, and is responsible for thedeaths of over 250,000 women each year. Most of these deaths occur in third world countries,where medical care is limited and safe sex is not practiced. India accounts for one-third of theglobal burden of cervical cancer. The disease is caused by infection with a virus called humanpapilloma virus (HPV) and is related to poor genital hygiene. The disease develops slowly andmost women experience no symptoms until it reaches advanced stages when treatment is oftenunsuccessful.



Title: DESIGN, MODELING AND PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS OF NOVELALGORITHMS FOR EEG BASED BRAIN CONTROL INTERFACE FOR PARALYTICPATIENTSAbstract:While estimates vary, at the turn of the new millennium about 21 million people in India werefound to have disability as per the official statistics. These included persons with visual, hearingspeech, locomotors or mental disabilities, who constituted about 2 percent of the population.However, some sources claim that the magnitude in actuality is more with at least 5 per cent ofpopulation suffering from one disability or other and the official statistics accounting for only themost severe ones. By and large, people with disability are further disabled through unequaltreatment and denial of basic rights by the broader society. The voiceless disabled people areinseparable part of India’s growing population of marginal, weaker and vulnerable sections ofsociety. More than 98% of disabled persons lived in normal households, while only 1.1% were ininstitutional households and remaining 0.2% were houseless. Again out of the 193 millionhouseholds in India, a little less than 10% households reported to have one or more disabledmembers. On the other hand 17% of institutional households and 8% of houseless households haddisabled members. This research aims to investigate intelligent systems which facilitatedevelopment of assistive robotic device for people with severe movement disability. The projectobjective investigates a brain-computer interface (BCI) that allows a paralytic patient person tocontrol robotic devices by thought alone. The research primarily involves developing advancedsignal processing algorithms to extract information from BCI tasks-related electroencephalogram(EEG), commonly known as brain-waves, and requires investigations into signal pre-processing,feature extraction and classification aspects using innovative statistical methods andcomputational intelligence approaches.
