An assessment of Behavioural Pattern for a Housing Society keeping view of the Public Perception and Psychology of Urban Open Space
Abstract: In our ancient architectural texts, the dwelling for the public is perceived as a solution to the issues arising from culture. Social structures are integrated into the system by specifying prototypes for different sections of society. The connection between housing and social structure has been borrowed from Durkheim’s who discusses social space, social life and social groups to address inclusiveness and the well-being housing ecosystem. Space is created for human …

Statistical and Artificial Neural Network for the Determination of Thermo-Physical Properties of Fomoditine Drug Using Mixed Hydrotropy
Abstract: The experimental determination of thermo-physical properties of fomoditine drug–mixed hydrotrope concentration mixture is very time consuming as well as tedious process. Any tool helpful in estimation of these properties without experimentation can be of immense utility. In present work, other tools of determination of properties of fomoditine drug–mixed hydrotrope concentration blends were tried. A traditional statistical technique of linear regression (principle of least squares) was used to estimate the specific …

A Study on OpenMP and Irregular Programming
Abstract: Programmers need better, more reliable techniques to build parallel programs. In the task-parallel programming paradigm, the programmer defines independent pieces of work, called tasks that may run in parallel. Geometric algorithms are wonderful examples for programming, because they are deceptively easy to do with your eyes, yet much harder to implement for a machine. The goal of parallel algorithm design is to develop parallel computational methods that run very fast …
