This paper presents a novel approach for efficient and convenient e-auction by comparing the performance between first-price and second-price sealed bid auction. This studied entry and bidding patterns in first-price and second-price sealed bid auction and documented a set of systematic effects on these two auctions. It is found that the first-price auction gives rise to larger levels of efficiency and revenue, but lower payoffs to the bidders. The latter finding is the second-price auction is a dominant strategy for a buyer to drop out of the bidding when the asking price reaches his or her valuation. This paper first demonstrates on the implementation of first-price and second-price sealed bid auction. Then it talks about the concerns about comparison between them.
Keywords: E-commerce, e-Auction, First-price sealed bid auction, Online sealed bid auction, Security and privacy, Vickrey auction.

A biometric system provides automatic identification of an individual based on a unique feature or characteristic possessed by the individual. Iris recognition is regarded as the most reliable and accurate biometric identification system available. Iris recognition is an automated method of biometric identification that uses mathematical pattern-recognition techniques on images of the irises of an individual's eyes, whose complex random patterns are unique. In this work it is proposed to implement an iris recognition system, where circular Hough transform and Canny edge detection is used to segment the iris region. A template of the detected region is created using Daugman algorithm and template matching for recognition is based on Hamming distance. The results shows that the proposed method is efficient for iris based biometric recognition.

Field experiments were conducted during 2009-10 and 2010-11 in rainfed conditions on sandy soil to ascertain the effect of various agronomic practices such as application of farm yard manure (FYM), poultry manure (PM), mixture of FYM and PM (FYM+PM), soil solarization and intercropping (pigeonpea: maize) on wilt of two local varieties of pigeonpea (V1: early maturing variety and V2: late maturing variety). Among the different treatments soil solarization was more effective in controlling wilt disease of pigeonpea to the extent of (37.21%) in early maturing variety (V1) and (44.37%) in late maturing variety (V2) as compared to other treatments.

In the recent years the development in communication systems requires the development of low cost,
minimal weight and low profile antennas that are capable of maintaining high performance over a wide
spectrum of frequencies. This technological trend has focused much effort into the design of a microstrip patch
antenna. This paper focuses on the design, model and simulation of a microstrip patch antenna which operates
at 430 MHz by applying two well known and mostly used feeding techniques. Those are coaxial feeding
and the strip line feeding. The proposed antenna is excited through these two feeding techniques and
the antenna design has been executed and simulated using IE3D software. Therefore, method of moments based
IE3D software is used to design a Microstrip Patch Antenna with dual Polarization using Dual feed line.We
have seen the behaviour of important parameters of a square patch in both co-axial as well as edge feed or strip
line feed. IE3D is an integrated full-wave electromagnetic simulation and optimization package for the analysis
and design of 3D and planar microwave circuits, MMIC, RFIC, RFID, antennas, digital circuits and high speed
Printed Circuit Board (PCB). The IE3D has become the most versatile, easy to use, efficient and accurate
electromagnetic simulation tool. The length of the antenna is nearly half wavelength in the dielectric it is a very
critical parameter, which governs the resonant frequency of the antenna. In view of design, selection of the
patch width and length are the major parameters along with the feed line dimensions. Desired patch antenna
design was simulated by IE3D simulator program. The entire project is being carried out at National
Atmospheric Research Laboratory (NARL), ISRO.

Out of several higher order fuzzy sets [1], the concept of an intuitionistic fuzzy set (IFS) [2] introduced by Atanassov has been found to be highly useful to deal with vagueness and imprecision. IFS theory has been extensively applied to areas like Artificial Intelligence, networking, Soft decision making, Programming logic, operational research etc. One the promising role of IFS has been emerged in Decision making problems specially group decision making and multi-attribute decision making. In some real-life situations, decision makers may not be able to accurately express their view for the problem as they may not possess a precise or sufficient level of knowledge of the problem or the decision makers are unable to discriminate explicitly the degree to which one alternative are better than others in such cases, the decision maker may provide their preferences for alternatives to a certain degree, but it is possible that they are not so sure about it [3]. Thus, it is very suitable to express the decision maker preference values with the use of fuzzy/intuitionistic fuzzy values rather than exact numerical values or linguistic variables [4]. To satisfy the need of decision making problem with imprecision and uncertainty many researchers have been concentrated on IFS theory. In this paper we reviewed the development of different approaches for solving decision making problem using IFS theory and a brief introduction on the role of Interval Valued IF sets (IVIFS) [5] in multiattribute decision making.

The Wireless Sensor Network appears as an emerging technology which consists of thousands of small and low cost sensors. These sensors have limited power, computation, storage and communication capabilities. The data aggregation framework process is required which combines the data coming from various sensors, remove the redundancies in those data and then enroot them. In this paper, we have proposed a secure data aggregation protocol for wireless sensor networks (WSNs) that is robust to deceitful nodes. The goal of this protocol is to guarantee the essential security needs (like authentication, data confidentiality & data integrity) as well as to achieve the low communication overhead and be fitted with various aggregation functions (like sum, average, max, min etc.).To achieve these security needs, it uses symmetric encryption and message authentication code. Encryption ensures data confidentiality while message authentication code ensures authentication and data integrity. An anomaly detection algorithm is used to detect the anomaly or outliers and thus prevent the deceitful corrupted data from being contributed to the final aggregated results.
Keywords: Wireless Sensor Network,Data aggregation.
This work investigated the compressive strength of ternary blended cement sandcrete containing cassava waste ash (CWA) and oil palm bunch ash (OPBA). 105 sandcrete cubes of 150mm x 150mm x 150mm were produced with OPC-CWA binary blended cement, 105 with OPC-OPBA binary blended cement, and 105 with OPC-CWA-OPBA ternary blended cement, each at percentage OPC replacement with pozzolan of 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, and 25%. Three cubes for each percentage replacement of OPC with pozzolan and the control were tested for saturated surface dry bulk density and crushed to obtain their compressive strengths at 3, 7, 14, 21, 28, 50, and 90 days of curing. The 90-day strengths obtained from ternary blending of OPC with equal proportions of CWA and OPBA were 11.70N/mm2 for 5% replacement, 11.10N/mm2 for 10% replacement, 10.80N/mm2 for 15% replacement, 10.00N/mm2 for 20% replacement, and 9.60N/mm2 for 25% replacement, while that of the control was 10.80N/mm2. This shows that very high sandcrete strength values could be obtained with OPC-CWA-OPBA ternary blended cement with high quality control at longer days of hydration. Thus, OPC-CWA-OPBA ternary blended cement sandcrete could be used for various civil engineering and building works where early strength is not a major requirement.
Key Words: Binary blended cement, ternary blended cement, sandcrete, pozzolan, cassava waste ash, oil palm bunch ash.
MnO2 thin films were deposited by chemical spray pyrolysis method on glass substrates and then doped by pb:3% and 5%. Structural properties of the prepared films were studied by means of x-ray diffraction (XRD), all patterns of the films are polycrystalline. The surface morphology of the films were investigated by using atomic force microscope (AFM) technique. The optical properties were studied by UV-VIS spectropho-meter, the absorption coefficient and optical band gap were calculated. Extinction coefficient, refractive index, and the dielectric constant were investigated.

The lead crews or power screws are very important components in machine tools, power transmission equipment and in general machinery. These components are often subjected to twisting moments. As cross section of power screw is not solid circle, the torsion expression available in simple torsion theory is not useful for the estimation of torque carrying capacity. In this paper two analytical models have been developed to evaluate torsion rigidity of power screws. To validate the results obtained from these developed models, an experimental set up is built up in this work.
Key Words: Lead screw, torsion rigidity, stress function.
A study was carried out to monitor the control of cholesterol oxidation in mayonnaise using Aframomum danielli (A. danielli) antioxidant extracts. Mayonnaise samples were treated with A. danielli antioxidant extracts from diethyl ether, ethanol, n-hexane and that of a synthetic antioxidant butylated hydroxyl anisole (BHA) and these samples were assessed for control cholesterol oxidation. The yield of A. danielli antioxidant extracts from the different solvents was highest in diethyl ether solvent (13.07%), followed by the yield from ethanol solvent (12.90%) while n-hexane solvent gave the lowest yield (10.95%). Using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), the percentage cholesterol anti-oxidation effectiveness in mayonnaise indicated that Aframomum danielli antioxidant extracts at 200 part per million (ppm) concentration from the solvents diethyl ether, ethanol and n-hexane were 93.96%, 99.54% and 94.94%respectively compared to 82.00% of synthetic antioxidant butylated hydroxyl anisole (BHA) on the 60th day of mayonnaise storage, making Aframomum danielli extracts to be than synthetic antioxidant extracts BHA in the control of cholesterol oxidation in mayonnaise.
