No full textEnergy system projects in countries like India are often failing. Not only because of technical or economical barriers, but mainly institutional and social issues are at the base of these failures. A co-creation, or participatory, process to align all demands and requirements of the different stakeholders is required. This paper takes evidence from literature on co-creation and energy systems and from case study research in India to help define an approach towards such a co-creation process as a use case for the application of the Responsible Innovation Systems framework. A discussion on co-creation as a solution generates a number of recommendations, after which a set of characteristics is concluded that the co-creation process of energy systems should have towards a responsible approach, so that more robust and sustainable innovations might emerge.Green Open Access added to TU Delft Institutional Repository ‘You share, we take care!’ – Taverne project https://www.openaccess.nl/en/you-share-we-take-care Otherwise as indicated in the copyright section: the publisher is the copyright holder of this work and the author uses the Dutch legislation to make this work public.Energy and IndustryDelft Centre for Entrepreneurshi

This thesis work was done as a private project for completing a Bachelor’s De-gree in Information Technology. The main objective of this work was to find out the effectiveness of OWASP Zed Attack Proxy, an open source and free inte-grated penetration testing tool for finding vulnerabilities in web applications. Besides that, the secondary objectives were to learn how to make web applica-tions and try to find out the security loopholes of them.
For this project, Notepad++, Localhost, and OWASP Zed Attack Proxy were used as tools, PHP, HTML, JavaScript, and CSS as languages, and MySQL Database for making a prototype web application. Notepad++ is a text editor and it supports various programming languages for writing programs or edit files. Localhost was used as a web host. And OWASP Zed Attack Proxy was used as a testing tool. The reason for using OWASP ZAP is that it is an open source and free application and it is a very popular tool among all available web application penetration testing tools either commercial or open source.
Some vulnerabilities were successfully found by the application (OWASP Zed Attack Proxy). Besides that, the developed prototype web application is a simple one. To test the effectiveness of OWASP Zed Attack Proxy in more detail, the web application should be more complex with various features. Being a prototype, it has limitations regarding its full intended features. As only few features were implemented in the prototype, there is a possibility to add more features to the web application as well as testing it in the future

No full textSupernumerary teeth: Report of four unusual cases
No full textSupernumerary tooth denotes duplication of tooth in the normal series. It is a developmental anomaly and has been argued to arise from multiple etiologies. These teeth may remain embedded in the alveolar bone or can erupt into the oral cavity. The supernumerary tooth might cause esthetic and/or functional problems, especially if it is situated in the maxillary anterior region. Complications reported were delayed or prevented eruption of succedaneous teeth, displacement or rotation, crowding of the affected region, abnormal diastema, dilacerations, cystic formation, and sometime eruption into the nasal cavity. In this case report, four unusual cases of supernumerary teeth that resulted in varying degrees of disturbances in permanent dentition are presented. Conservative surgical intervention and light orthodontic forces were used to bring the teeth into normal position with minimal disturbance to the surrounding oral structures

No full textForecasting of Campus Placement for Students Using Ensemble Voting Classifier
No full textCampus placement is a measure of students’ performance in a course. A forecasting method is proposed in this paper to predict possible campus placement of any institution. Data mining and knowledge discovery processes on academic career of students are applied. Supervised machine learning technique based classifiers are used for achieving this process. It uses an ensemble approach based voting classifier for choosing best classifier models to achieve better result over other classifiers. Experimental results have indicated 86.05% accuracy of ensemble based approach which is significantly better over other classifiers
A potent bidirectional promoter from the monocot cereal Eleusine coracana
No full textRagi bifunctional α-amylase-trypsin inhibitor (RBI) of Eleusine coracana (L.) Gaertn. (finger millet) simultaneously inhibits α-amylase and trypsin. In continuation of previous work on the cloning, expression and characterization of RBI, a bidirectional promoter from finger millet was explored on the basis of experimental observations. Two trypsin inhibitors were identified while purifying RBI from a trypsin-Sepharose column eluent. Using an FPLC gel filtration column, these three inhibitors were purified to homogeneity and subjected to MALDI-TOF-TOF-MS/MS analysis and N-terminal sequencing. Both ragi trypsin inhibitors (RTIs) showed the same N-terminal sequence and considerable sequence similarity to RBI, indicating the presence of a multigene protease inhibitor family in finger millet. To gain insight into the evolution of these genes, the upstream region of RBI was explored by Genome Walking. Interestingly, on sequencing, a genome walking product of ∼1 Kb showed presence of an N-terminal RBI specific primer sequence twice but in opposite directions and leaving an intervening region of ∼0.9 Kb. The intervening region was presumed to represent an E. coracana bidirectional promoter (EcBDP), intuitively having a divergent RBI-RTI gene pair at two sides. For assaying the bidirectionality of promoter activity, a dual reporter GUS-GFP vector construct was made for plant expression containing the reporter genes at two ends of EcBDP, which was used to transform Agrobacterium tumefaciens LBA 4404. Transient plant transformation by recombinant Agrobacterium cells was carried out in onion scale epidermal cells and finger millet seedling leaves. Simultaneous expression of GUS and GFP under EcBDP established it as a potent natural bidirectional promoter from monocot origin, thereby potentially having vast application in cereal gene manipulations. In addition, inducibility of the EcBDP by either abscisic acid or cold treatment, as determined by transient transformation in onion, would substantiate more precise control of gene expression to mitigate the effects of adverse environmental conditions
