Present paper addresses the role of State Research problem is that legal discipline imposed by State is sometimes not admired by citizens and, consequently, political system faces with instability while laws and regulations should naturally establish public order. Therefore, the main question is that “what is the role of State in changing public order to legal order in responding people’s demands? Out hypothesis is that due to the emergence of human security and the rationality of structural functionalism theory, legal order by State can establish such function imposed by the concept of public order. Studies indicate that in general law, public order consists of citizens’ demands in the format of society’s value system. Since any legal norm should be implemented by political power support, the State which implements such rules is too important. Considering the existing values in the heart of new concept of public order and the possibility of changing society’s value system, State can provide such function committed to natural law approach and impartial in public arena. Such State should be also committed to the requirement of good governance theory in order to provide human security.

This research was aimed at bio-ethanol production by fungi capable of producing cellulases and to convert pre-treated lingo-cellulosic material to fermentable sugars. The lingo-cellulosic material such as sugarcane bagasses, sugarcane leaves, rice husk or wheat bran were used as substrates. Fungi were isolated from soil samples collected from various regions. The pure cultures were screened for the ability to degrade cellulose. The fungi capable of cellulose production were identified as Trichoderma sp based on colony characters, microscopic observation and identification. The substrates were powdered and pretreated with fungal isolates using Mandels’ and Reese media. The substrates were used as a carbon source. Then optimization studies were carried out by using five bio-mass substrates at different pH, temperature and incubation period. Analysis was done by using Gas Chromatography. Sugarcane bagasses, Juice waste, Rice husk, Wheat bran, and Dry leaves were treated with Trichoderma isolates. Sugarcane bagasse and juice waste have shown highest concentrat ion of reducing sugars of 45.95 mg/g and 40.56 mg/g respectively and ethanol yield of 51.15 % and 46.5 % respectively. Dry leaves, Wheat bran and Rice husk have shown less reducing sugars of 33.32 mg/g, 30.32 mg/g, and 29.45 mg/g and ethanol yield 11.1 %, 7.15 %, and 6 % respectively as compared with sugarcane bagasse and juice waste.

The vertical distribution of phytoplankton in stratified water columns (upper 150 m), was studied at five stations around the cap Juby area, Moroccan Atlantic sea, during four periods in 2009. Five depth levels were sampled: 5, 25, 50m for coastal stations and up to 90, 150m for offshore stations. The vertical variability of the physical parameters was analyzed to assess the impact of hydrological fluctuations on phytoplankton vertical distribution. The maximal densities are noted at the surface in April and June, where the upwelling activity reaches its maximum, manifested by cold-water temperature, low salinities and an intense intake of nutrients. These observations are confirmed by the vertical distribution of dominant species, such as Thalassiosira spp, Leptocylindrus danicus, Leptocylindrus minimus, Nitzschia spp and Alexandrium spp. Indeed, these five common and frequently occurring phytoplankton species showed maximal proliferation, on the upper layers, in upwelling periods. In February and October, a considerable stratification of all parameters is noticed, leading to an unremarkable vertical variability in phytoplankton distribution.

Existing and in recent times proposed clustering algorithms are studied and it is known that the k-means clustering method is mostly used for clustering of data due to its reduction of time complexity. But the foremost drawback of k-means algorithm is that it suffers from sensitivity of outliers which may deform the distribution of data owing to the significant values. The drawback of the k-means algorithm is resolved by k-medoids method where the novel approach uses user defined value for k. As a result, if the number of clusters is not chosen suitably, the accuracy will be minimized. Even, K-medoids algorithm does not scale well for huge data set. In order to overcome the above stated limitations, a new grid based clustering method is proposed, where time complexity of proposed algorithm is depending on the number of cells. Simulation results show that, the proposed approach has less time complexity and provides natural clustering method which scales well for large dataset.

The applications of audio and video compression are limitless and the ISO has done well to provide standards which are appropriate to the wide range of possible compression products. MPEG coding embraces video pictures from the tiny screen of a videophone to the high-definition images needed for electronic cinema. Audio coding stretches from speech-grade mono to multichannel surround sound. This paper presents an overview of the video compression standards related to the MPEG family. MPEG-7 and MPEG-21 are specially covered including its latest standards. MPEG-7 is mainly used for object descriptions and MPEG-21 is for DRM (Digital Rights Management).

Sedimento logical analysis methods to study historical events and environmental sections of these dimentary basins of the natural sciences is common. Analysis of sedimentary sections particularly Quaternaryse dements can be revealed climatic and environmental conditions of the area and uncover favorable view of the environmental conditions.

In this study the physical properties of these diments containing Granulometry, Analysis, Calcimetry, Transparent rate, rounding rate and chemical properties, including the amount of lime, pH, EC were compared and the results indicated that Chopanan sediments were aeolian sediments and deposited in dry environment and Bayazeh sediments deposits in an aquatic environment. This causes indicate that in the past era there was a local pond in the Bayazeh.

The in vitro antibacterial activity of flavonoid and alkaloid extracts of various plant parts of V. negundo and A. paniculata was investigated using Disc Diffusion Assay against four Gram negative (E. aerogens, R. planticola, A. tumefaciens and K. pneumoniae) and one Gram positive bacteria (B. subtilis). Minimum inhibitory concentration of the extracts was evaluated by micro broth dilution method, while minimum bactericidal concentrations were determined by sub culturing the relevant samples. The extracts exhibited antimicrobial activities with zones of inhibition ranging from 9 to 23.5 mm. A. tumefaciens was found to be most susceptible organism in the investigation against which all the extracts showed positive response. Stem free flavonoid extract of V. negundo and stem bound flavonoid extract of A. paniculata was recorded as most active extract as it showed significant zone of inhibition against all the tested pathogens. The range of MIC and MBC was recorded 1.25-0.039mg/ml. Results of the present study reveal that extracts of both the selected plants are showing great antimicrobial potential against tested pathogen, and may be exploited for future antibacterial drugs.

This paper focuses on the bidirectional associative memory its features and the future aspects and the current context of application. BAM is a type of neural network. Artificial neural network (Ann’s) resembled the human nervous system, with algorithms consisting of weighted interconnecting processing units (like neural map of the human brain). To address a particular problem using Ann’s, the interrelated connections are tuned and the value of weights between units is needed. Neural network is a new unexplored topic of interest for the computer scientists. Bam comes under recurrent types of network called Hopfield network. BAM is a resonance model, in the sense that information is passed back and forth between two layers of units until a stable sate is reached. The Hopfield network is said to be auto associative, because it uses a partial and noisy pattern to recall the best match of itself. BAM includes: ASSOCIATIVE NEURAL MEMORIES: Associative neural memories are a class of artificial neural networks (connectionist nets) which have gained substantial attention relative to other neural net paradigms. Associative memories have been the subject of research. NOISE TOLERANCY: This paper analyzes the sensitivity to noise in BAM (Bidirectional Associative Memory), and then proves the noise immunity of BAM relates not only to the minimum absolute value of net inputs (MAV) but also to the variance of weights associated with synapse connections.

Voltage instability problems have become important issues in unbalanced distribution networks. In this paper, a new bus positive sequence voltage index of Vcollapse/Vbase-load is introduced to identify the weakest three-phase buses in unbalanced three-phase distribution networks. First, the proposed ranking index is validated based on grid losses and PV curves without and with compensation devices. Then, the index is utilized to place three-phase DG without and with SVC devices at the three-phase weakest buses of the modified IEEE unbalanced 13 node test feeder using the DIgSILENT Power Factory software. Finally, simulation results are presented to show the application of the proposed approach in improving voltage stability and increasing the maximum loading factor under unbalanced loading and/or network conditions.
