Towards Post Development in India. Lessons of Community Resilience in Times of Crises
No full textAuthor: Ashish Kothari is an Indian environmentalist working on development – environment interface, biodiversity policy, and alternatives. Environment and wildlife have been his passions since high school in Delhi, when (in 1978-79) he helped found Kalpavriksh, a non-profit organisation in India which deals with environmental and development issues. Since then, he has been associated with peoples’ movements like Narmada Bachao Andolan and Beej Bachao Andolan. He is also involved in coordinateing national and global networks like Vikalp Sangam and Global Tapestry of Alternatives

Analysis of single nucleotide polymorphisms using molecular affinity separation and mass spectrometry
No full textSingle nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) constitute the most abundant human genetic variations and are important markers for studying interindividual variability with many different techniques having being developed for their study. The use of mass spectrometry (MS) is an attractive detection method for SNP genotyping due to label free detection based on molecular mass, especially for use in diagnostic applications that would require analysis of tens of SNPs in cohorts of individuals. The work in this thesis explores the use of a molecular affinity purification system for improving multiplexing levels of SNP genotyping using MS based detection and approaches for improving its throughput.
The strong molecular affinity between biotin and streptavidin has been employed for isolation of biotinylated oligonucleotides before analysis by MS using the previously developed solid phase capture-single base extension approach. We have been able to genotype up to 50 SNPs simultaneously using two genes from the cytochrome 450 family of genes as model system. These results have demonstrated the utility of the biotin-streptavidin affinity system for highly multiplexed SNP genotyping using MS. Following this, two approaches have been employed to reduce processing time and improve throughput of the technique. First, we have used monomeric avidin coated microbeads to fabricate a device that leads to a substantial reduction in processing time for the isolation step to ~2 hours, and allows simultaneous processing of multiple samples for genotyping a limited number of SNPs. Additionally, the microbead device can be reused 5 times with a simple regeneration protocol thus acting as a low cost tool for enhancing sample cleanup prior to MS. A second approach involves the use of heat and water for breaking the biotin-streptavidin interaction that allows direct analysis of released fragments by MS. We have shown its utility for reducing processing time after the isolation step substantially, and used it for highly multiplexed SNP genotyping. In concert, these studies demonstrate the feasibility of using the molecular affinity interaction between biotin and (strept)avidin for high throughput genotyping of single nucleotide polymorphisms using MS.Ph.D.Includes bibliographical references (p. 73-78)by Ashish Misr
Precipitation climatology of the Garhwal Himalayas
No full textThe knowledge of precipitation climatology is essential for the development of any region particularly mountainous region like Garhwal. In this paper, mean monsoon, winter, monthly and annual precipitation, estimates of maximum precipitation and point PMP values for different stations of Garhwal Himalayas for the past 100 years have been given and analysed. -from Author
Meta-Data of Papers in Asia-Pacific Software Engineering Conference from 2010 to 2015
No full textThe Asia-Pacific Software
Engineering Conference (APSEC) is an annual conference started in the year 1994
in Tokyo (Japan) with the aim of brining software engineering researchers and
practitioners from both university and industry around the world to exchange
research results and ideas. APSEC 1994 (Tokyo, Japan) was the first edition of
the conference and the annual event completes 23 editions in 2016 (Hamilton,
New Zealand). The dataset contains meta-data on APSEC 2010 to APSEC 2015 papers
from various perspectives such as paper
acceptance rates, conference location, scholarly output of various countries, keynotes,
workshops, conference organizers and sponsors, tutorials, prolific authors,
citation impact, internal and external collaboration, university and industry
participation and collaboration, gender imbalance, topical analysis, yearly author
churn and program committee characteristics. The paper titled “A Review of Six
Years of Asia-Pacific Software Engineering Conference” by Lov Kumar, Saikrishna
Sripada and Ashish Sureka published in APSEC 2016 is based on this dataset</p
Meta-Data of Papers in India Software Engineering Conference from 2008 to 2016
No full textThe India Software Engineering
Conference (ISEC) is an annual conference in the field of Software Engineering
(SE) in India. ISEC started in the year 2008 and completed 9 years in 2016. The
dataset contains meta-data of 9 years of ISEC publications and programs. The dataset contains information about ISEC
program (paper submission data, tutorials, workshops, keynotes, invited talks, geographical
location, programs and general chairs), author-affiliation-based geographical contributions
(international and national levels), topics, university and industry
collaborations, contributions across university types in India, prolific
authors and new authors, gender equality and imbalance, program committee
characteristics, open-source or close-source datasets and citation-based impact.
A paper on the dataset analysis is published in ACM SIGSOFT Software
Engineering Notes (September Issue 2016). The title of the paper is “A Nine
Year Story of the India Software Engineering Conference from 2008 to 2016”
published by Richa Sharma and Ashish Sureka. </p
