A total of 50 ha of land under private holding and community water bodies each were selected to implement this model. Ducks were integrated based on the water spread area. Fodder, fruit, nuts, fuel, timber trees and vegetables were grown on pond bunds. Control units of fish ponds of farmers holding without integration of ducks also were taken up. A control unit also was established in the university farm land with and without integration of ducks. In private water bodies coconut trees and banana fetched additional revenue. During the first year the average fish production from the private land model was 1,552 kg and 1,731 kg for the first and second year respectively per Hectare. In community ponds the yields were 1,610 and 1,337 kg for the first and second year respectively. In field control units there was no increase in fish yield over the years. In private water bodies the beneficiaries got egg yield of 148 and 90 eggs and community water bodies 144 and 127 eggs per bird were obtained during first and second year resoectivelv.展开更多

The preamble of the constitution enshrines the values of a socialist, secular and equality. The aim was to create a society, based on fair and equitable distribution of resources and bringing the weaker sections to the mainstream of the society. However with the entry of globalization rapid changes were being made in the structural policy. Markets started taking over from where the state left off. it has been two decades and half since the liberalization, privatization and globalization phase was ushered in. Subsequently, privatization of education is rampant in each part of education system of India. The main objective of this paper is to find out socio-educational inequality at higher education level and to explore the educational participation, attainment and performance of scheduled castes at higher education level. Basically, this study is an empirical and exploratory research. Data collection and analysis were done through the data triangulation methods in this research process.展开更多

This paper proposes a novel solution for location based service （LBS） in vehicular ad hoc network （VANET）. Firstly, the relationship among anonymity degree, expected company area and vehicle density is discussed. Then, a companion set F is set up by k neighbor vehicles. Based on secure multi-party computation, each vehicle in V can compute the centroid, not revealing its location to each other. The centroid as a cloaking location is sent to LBS provider （P） and P returns a point of interest （POI）. Due to a distributed secret sharing structure, P cannot obtain the positions of non-complicity vehicles by colluding with multiple internal vehicles. To detect fake data from dishonest vehicles, zero knowledge proof is adopted. Comparing with other related methods, our solution can resist passive and active attacks from internal and external nodes. It provides strong privacy protection for LBS in VANET.展开更多

However, it was undeniable that a bad phenomenon had become even more and more serious that others＇ information would be obtained by illegal means, and the research on the protection of privacy had increasingly aroused people＇s concern. The right of privacy not only had the usually outside personality characteristics, but also had a certain characteristics of property. This paper had attempted to study the right of privacy from the perspective of law and economics by interpreting the property in the right of privacy, in order to perfect the protection system of privacy in our country.展开更多

Our objectives were to characterize the scaling properties and the possible connections between volume-based and number-based PSDs by applying single and joint multifractal analysis. Twelve soil samples were taken from selected sites in Northwest China and their PSDs were analyzed using laser diffractometry. The results indicated that the volume-based PSDs of all 12 samples and the number-based PSDs of 4 samples had multifractal scalings for moment order -6 〈 q 〈： 6. Some empirical relationships were identified between the extreme probability values, maximum probability （Pmax）, minimum probability （Pmin）, and Pmax/Pmin, and the multifractal indices, the difference and the ratio of generalized dimensions at q = 0 and 1 （Do - D1 and D1/Do）, maximum and minimum singularity strength （αmax and OZmin） and their difference （αmax - αmin, spectrum width）, and asymmetric index （RD）. An increase in Pmax generally resulted in corresponding increases of Do - D1, αmax, αmax - αmin, and RD, which indicated that a large Pmax increased the multifractality of a distribution. Joint multifractal analysis showed that there was significant correlation between the scaling indices of volume-based and number-based PSDs. The multifractality indices indicated that for a given soil, the volume-based PSD was more homogeneous than the number-based PSD, and more likely to display monofractal rather than multifractal scaling.展开更多
