Urbanization volume and trend: An analysis in the context of India
Urbanization is an index of transformation from traditional rural economies to modern industrial one. It is a long term process. This paper endeavors to illuminate on the process of urbanization in India over a century with emphasis on level, tempo of urbanization and urban morphology using Indian Census data during 1901-2001. It will try to trace urban problems and related policy issues. At the moment, India is among the countries of low level of urbanization. Number of urban agglomeration /town has grown from 1827 in 1901 to 5161 in 2001. Number of population residing in urban areas has increased from 2.58 crores in 1901 to 28.53 crores in 2001. Only28% of population was living in urban areas as per 2001 census. Over the years there has been continuous concentration of population in class I towns. On the contrary the concentration of population in medium and small towns either fluctuated or declined. The graduation of number of urban centers from lower population size categories to class I cities has resulted top heavy structure of urban population in India. India’s urbanization is often termed as over- urbanizationpseudo- urbanization. The big cities attained inordinately large population size leading to virtual collapse in the urban services and followed by basic problems in the field of housing, slum, water, infrastructure, quality of life etc. Urbanization is a product of demographic explosion and poverty induced rural-urban migration. Urbanisation is occurring not due to urban pull but due to rural push. Globalization, liberalization, privatization are addressing negative process for urbanization in India. Policy relates to proper urban planning where city planning will consist of operational, developmental and restorative planning. Redirection of investment is recommended to develop strong economic base for small and medium city neglected so far so that migration flows are redirected to small and medium cities.

Virtual Modeling of Miner Track System
Deep-sea mining system technology is complex, expensive and difficult to develop due to high cost and risks of physical models constructions. The development of deep-sea mining simulation test system is the early concept of design innovation and it is an effective tool to accelerate the maturity of the technology to ensure stable and reliable performance. RecurDyn is fully integrated linear and non-linear FEA capability software which allows the creation of detailed realistic models for design studies and product's performance improvement. In this paper a miner track system was modeled based on an optimized design in order to check for its feasibility.

A conceptual study on issues and challenges of green marketing in Indian scenario
Environment is the sum of all social, economical, biological, physical (or) chemical factors which constitute the surroundings of Organisms. Due to global warming, green house gas emissions, pollution, and energy crisis, world is facing a severe threat of being a very difficult place to live in. Therefore, the marketers need to include a green approach in framing the marketing programs/ strategies. With regards to this the marketers now have to go green. It means that due care must be taken while framing the marketing plans, strategies and policies so as to prevent the environment and nature from any harm caused due to its operations not only today but also in future. Few business firms have also started turning ‘green’ and embracing green marketing practices to comply with green pressures and environmental legislation. According to Kangis (1992), green marketing must be more than either a green way of marketing, or the marketing of so-called green products. Green has to refer both to the method and to the product. This is why the very idea of green marketing needs considerable development and analysis, with rules and integrity in economic, scientific, academic and ethical terms. Consumers too have become more ecologically conscious and have started demanding green products, giving rise to a movement which has been dubbed as ‘green consumerism’. The outcome of this paper may trigger the minds of readers and marketer to give a thought current market Scenario and explores the challenges and opportunities businesses have with green marketing.

Biologically active quercetin from onion and its effect on health
Quercetin is a phenolic compound that exhibits strong antioxidant activity and they are widely found in onion (Allium cepa). The concentration of quercetin in the onion of different species or different date of purchase varies within the range of 185-634mg/ kg of fresh onion. The naturally occurring quercetins in the onion are appeared in glucose conjugate forms such as quercetin-4?-O-?-glycopyranoside, quercetin-3,4?-O-?-diglycopyranoside, and quercetin -3,7,4?-O-?-triglycopyranoside. The attachment of glucose on the molecule of quercetin has brought to two adverse effects: i) Decrease of the antioxidant activity. ii) Limit the human intestinal absorption upon oral consumption. Previous studies have suggested several methods to remove the glucose from the molecule of quercetin including the strong acid hydrolysis, organic acid hydrolysis, enzymatic hydrolysis and lactic acid fermentation.

Comparative Analysis of Ann (Artificial Neural Network) To Identify Olive Ridley Sea Turtle
The present study deals with the performance and comparison between two architecture in neural networks namely perceptron neural networks and feed forward neural networks. This networks help to identify the particular species of olive ridley sea turtle. The existing algorithm in training the images faces many difficulties such as time delay in training the images and also improper learning rate in the ANN. To overcome this problems the new algorithm is developed were training is made with both perceptron and feed forward neural networks. Initially 8 images were trained and these images consisting of four main features which includes length, breadth, color and shape. These trained images are processed for performance analysis to make effective identification of olive ridley sea turtle.
