Towards a Geotechnical Input-Based Conceptual Cost Estimating Methodology for Highway Projects
Abstract: The trend in the literature reveals a wide range of innovative approaches which have been proposed to improve the accuracy of conceptual estimates. These techniques are usually based on differing analytical approaches. Although these techniques obtain estimates that closely approximate actual costs, the requisite time and resources to gather sufficient data or obtain relevant information during initial project stages may not be possible. The study proposes that for a road …

Methodology of watershed development
Abstract: Watershed has been adopted as an approach for the implementation of area development programs namely DPAP, DDP, IWDP and HARIYALI. A watershed is a natural geo-hydrological area that drains out rain water to a common point. Based on available budget, local people support and intervention with technologies, the watershed area is developed. Such viable watershed unit aims at conservation, development and optimum use of natural resources for increasing productivity and …

Treatment of Dairy Wastewater Using Constructed Wetland
Abstract: Naturally existing wetlands have been used for dumping various types of wastewaters and have been promised to dispose of these wastewaters. As a matter of fact, in some areas, natural wetlands still serve this purpose solely and are nothing more than dumping sites. However, extensive research suggested the use of Wetlands for Treatment purposes. Understanding the dynamics of the processes in natural wetlands leads to the use of those processes …

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 …
