A deterministic model for the transmission dynamics of infectious diseases among infants
In this paper, a deterministic mathematical model for the transmission dynamics of infectious diseases among infants in a vaccinated and temporary recovered population is proposed. Although the equilibria of the model could not be expressed in closed forms, the existence and threshold conditions for their stabilities are theoretically investigated. The standard dynamical modelling methods are used for analyzing the behaviours of the solutions both at the disease free equilibrium and the endemic equilibrium. In addition, the conditions of the parameters for the disease free and endemic states are obtained through the basic reproductive number. The results of this study guide the way to reduce the disease outbreak among the infants.

A Study on Spectrum Sharing Approach Using Cognitive Radio To Enhance Throughput Efficiency of Ad Hoc Networks
Cognitive radios hold tremendous promise for increasing spectral efficiency in wireless systems. The spectrum sensing problem has gained new aspects with cognitive radio and opportunistic spectrum access concepts. It is one of the most challenging issues in cognitive radio systems. A cognitive radio is an intelligent wireless communication device that exploits side information about its environment to improve spectrum utilization. Spectrum shortage was born the idea for cognitive radios. These devices utilize advanced radio and signal processing technology along with novel spectrum allocation policies to support new wireless users operating in the existing crowded spectrum, without degrading the performance of entrenched users. In this paper we present a Cognitive Radio approach for usage of Virtual Unlicensed Spectrum , a vision of a Cognitive Radio (CR) based approach that uses allocated spectrum in a opportunistic manner to create “virtual unlicensed bands” i.e. bands that are shared with the primary (often licensed) users on a non-interfering basis. Dynamic spectrum management techniques are used to adapt immediate local spectrum availability. One of the most important components of the cognitive radio concept is the ability to measure, sense, learn, and be aware of the parameters related to the radio channel characteristics, availability of spectrum and power, radio’s operating environment, user requirements and applications, available networks (infrastructures) and nodes, local policies and other operating restrictions. In cognitive radio terminology, primary users can be defined as the users who have higher priority or legacy rights on the usage of a specific part of the spectrum.

A vital role of pharmacoinformatics
The rapid growth of the internet and the World Wide Web has led to the development of pharmacoinformatics technologies to assist oncology healthcare professionals in delivering optimum pharmaceutical care and health related outcomes. There is an increasing recognition that information technology can be effectively used for drug discovery. The work in pharmacoinformatics can be broadly divided into two categories - scientific aspects and service aspects. The scientific component deals with the drug discovery and development activities, whereas the service oriented aspects are more patient centric. Pharmacoinformatics subject feeds on many emerging information technologies like neuroinformatics, immunoinformatics, biosystem informatics, metabolomics, chemical reaction informatics, toxicoinformatics, cancer informatics, genome informatics, proteome informatics, biomedical informatics, The minimizing the time between a drug‘s discovery and its delivery to the marketplace and maintaining high productivity in the manufacturing processes. During a product‘s lifecycle many complex decisions must be made to achieve these goals. To better support the development and manufacturing processes at each stage, we have proposed a new epitome to facilitate the management and transfer of data information and knowledge. In future these information technology efforts are expected to grow both in terms of their reliability and scope. Thus, this emerging technology (pharmacoinformatics) is becoming an essential component of pharmaceutical sciences.

An Investigation into Generation of Biogas from Restaurant Waste
This is the study to evaluate the performance of new design of biogas unit and to enhance the biogas production by using different parameters. The raw material to be fed in digester will be the food waste which gets generated everyday from restaurant full of crowd in the locality. With this unit, biogas equivalent to two kg of LPG can be generated from the feeding of approximately 15 kg of food waste every day. This is the only design available which allows the user to choose how much biogas pressure he wants. Biogas thus produced can be checked for quality by different inoculums and additives. Thus the cost of disposing the food waste can be saved and the energy can also be recreated and reutilized for restaurant benefits. Hence the atmospheric contamination automatically gets prevented.

Business ethics: from theory to practice
As an academic discipline, business ethics emerged in the 1970s. Since no academic business ethics journals or conferences existed, researchers published in general management journals, and attended general conferences. Over time, specialized peer-reviewed journals appeared, and more researchers entered the field. Corporate scandals in the earlier 2000s increased the field's popularity. As of 2009, sixteen academic journals devoted to various business ethics issues existed, with Journal of Business Ethics and Business Ethics Quarterly considered the leaders. Business ethics (also corporate ethics) is a form of applied ethics or professional ethics that examines ethical principles and moral or ethical problems that arise in a business environment. It applies to all aspects of business conduct and is relevant to the conduct of individuals and entire organizations. Business ethics has both normative and descriptive dimensions. As a corporate practice and a career specialization, the field is primarily normative. Academics attempting to understand business behavior employ descriptive methods. The range and quantity of business ethical issues reflects the interaction of profit-maximizing behavior with non-economic concerns. Interest in business ethics accelerated dramatically during the 1980s and 1990s, both within major corporations and within academia. For example, today most major corporations promote their commitment to non-economic values under headings such as ethics codes and social responsibility charters. Adam Smith said, "People of the same trade seldom meet together, even for merriment and diversion, but the conversation ends in a conspiracy against the public, or in some contrivance to raise prices.
