The e-healthcare applications are considered as a promising field in wireless sensor networks, where patients can be monitored using wireless medical sensor networks (WMSN). Recent research in WMSN healthcare is focused on patient reliable communication, patient mobility, and energy-efficient routing. Deploying new technologies in healthcare applications without considering security makes patient privacy vulnerable. Security is a paramount requirement of healthcare applications, especially in the case of patient privacy, if the patient has an embarrassing disease. This paper will discuss on various security mechanism, privacy issues and requirement of e-healthcare applications.

This project aims at detecting and alerting the user about the carbon di-oxide and the carbon monoxide levels in the surrounding. This is a programmed project so that the threshold levels can be changed according to the surroundings. For example: house, storage facility, chemical laboratory, etc.

The evaluation of the proportion in urban land territorial use planning will be done for allocation of each use planning to the most suitable land with the aims of achieving the most efficiency in allocate use planning in regarding to giving the services to citizens and other controls and urban land activities as well. This operation is as a complicated process for its effects and its more dependencies of other different controls on each other and also on daily urban land activities and the effects of profits and several factors on urban land controls activities will increase the complexity of the problem. The mentioned complexity is lead synchronizing to use of the different tools for decision support informational system (space) and analyses the multi-criteria (SMCDM). One of the most important problems in urban land programming is determining the adequacy in land control. In this problem should be determined the best use planning for each unit of land according to environmental factors such as slope, height, aspects of slope, continent, erosion, lands sufficiency, dust and social and economical factors too. In this research work is conveyed four suitable methods to controls by spatial decision making methods in terms of Topsis, Electre, Saw, Ahp according to environmental criteria. The result of this research work is the most important usage for SMCDM in urban land programming subjects, determining the scale of different applies for each spatial unit in which is able to calculate by spatial multi-Criteria decision making systems.

Hazardous-waste management, is defined as the collection, treatment, and disposal of waste material that, when improperly handled, can cause substantial harm to human health and safety or to the environment. Hazardous wastes can take the form of solids, liquids, sludges, or contained gases and they are generated primarily by chemical production, manufacturing, and other industrial activities. Proper management and control can greatly reduce the dangers of hazardous waste. There are many rules for managing hazardous waste and preventing releases into the environment. Even so, a lot can go wrong when we try to contain hazardous waste. Even the most technologically advanced landfills we build will leak someday. Tanks used for storing petroleum products and other chemicals can leak and catch fire; underground storage tanks weaken over time and leak their hazardous contents. Transportation accidents, such as train crashes and overturned trucks, can occur while transporting hazardous substances. There are also cases of intentional and illegal dumping of hazardous waste in sewer systems, abandoned warehouses, or ditches in remote areas to avoid the costs and rules of safe disposal. This paper discusses the importance of hazardous waste management, outlining legal requirements and the need to comply with standards; Environmental concerns surrounding hazardous waste management, characteristics of hazardous waste. The paper reflects on some major sources of hazardous wastes; Routes of transport of hazardous waste to the environment and exposure to humans, Health and Environmental impacts of industrial hazardous waste; Treatment of hazardous waste categorizing the four major methods: the physical including encapsulation, wetting and physical separation, the chemical, the biological including biodegradation, bioremediation (in-situ and ex-situ) and the thermal methods. The paper also provides faith-based reflections on waste and waste management issues and suggests various waste management techniques outlining various activities that can be practiced at the personal, home and institutional level in sustainable waste management. The paper emphasizes that waste and especially hazardous waste is not only a local issue; other countries all over the world have to deal with this challenge in order to achieve sustainable development. Participants are encouraged to take part in world events that address waste issues such as; World Environment Day (June 5th), Earth Day (April 22nd), World Health Day (April 7th), World Standards Day (October 14th), and International Coastal Clean-up Day (September 20th).

The idea of passing the bosphorus under the sea with a tubular structure is evaluated for the period in question. The evidence of the pocess of driling ground between Üsküdar and the side across is analysed in detail as a proof indicating that this Project was thought to be realized. Main questions of the research is as follows. What is the current situation of these projects. Why was there a need for a tubular passage way? Who were the contactors? What are the Project alternatives? What was the details of design proposals? Why were these cancelled? What kind of a perspective do these projects supply for today and tomorrow? The initial hypothesis before the study is that these projects were a part of governmental renewal program, these were developed as a solution for the problems of the city and cancelled due to war or financial reasons, method is genetic and pragmatic historical research. Up to now, the subject has not been explained in such detail with the agreement text analysed and sources used.

This article discusses the role of the counselor as a leader in the development of TVET in Malaysian universities. Various issues related to the development of children in the area. Today's society thinks that counseling is a professional services performed by a competent and qualified counselors in the counseling field. According to Abdul Halim, (2000) counseling services in Malaysia has just created as a result of the UNESCO declaration to the Ministry of Education through an expert consultant RK MacKenzie from Canada. In 1962 to 1963, he has trained managers from state education departments in matters related to counseling and guidance. As a result of this effort, a book on School Services Guide was published by Macmillan in 1966. Role of the counselor is seen from the four aspects of leadership, the practice of secrecy, selection of participants and follow-up (Fadilah and Maisarah 2002).

In order to manufacture any product at desired quality of machining, optimum parameters are to be selected for machining. The aim of the present work is to optimization of the process parameters (Cutting Speed, Feed, Depth of cut) for machining the Bearing cap having interrupted cuts. Computer Aided Mass Balancing (CAMB) methodology is used for determining the counterweight for rotary fixture. The performance characteristics are studied by using the orthogonal array, signal-to-noise ratio, and the ANOVA from Taguchi method for interrupted cuts of boring operation and effect of Cutting force for balanced and unbalanced rotary fixture.
