    Business Intelligence in Platform as a Service (PaaS) for information analysis is increasingly being considered for its applications in the enterprises because of its advantages. It is widely used for Data Analysis, Customer Churn Prediction, etc. However, the challenges that the traditional BI platform faces includes the tremendous volume of data, high time and space complexity of algorithms and the incompatibility in the Integration to the BI tools. Thus instead of having traditional Data Warehouses for storage which require high maintenance and storages, companies are moving towards more efficient cloud based storages

    Many tests have been developed for comparing means in a two-sample scenario. Microarray experiments lead to thousands of such comparisons in a single study. Several multiple testing procedures are available to control experiment-wise error or the false discovery rate. In this dissertation, individual two-sample tests are compared based on accuracy, correctness, and power. Four multiple testing procedures are compared via simulation, based on data from the lab of Dr. Rajesh Miranda. The effect of sample size on power is also carefully examined. The two sample t-test followed by the Benjamini and Hochberg (1995) false discovery rate controlling procedure result in the highest power

    Falls in elderlies has been a major concern in geriatric care. One out of three elderlies have been falling every year and the many more elderlies are constantly at risk of falls. These falls lead to serious injuries like hip fractures and build sense of fear in elderlies, which limit their activities and degrade their quality of life. There has been seen a huge need to enhance the skill and knowledge of the present and future nurses to ensure that they are professionally and personally capable to identify the risk factors and plan prevention strategies accordingly. Literature review has been used in this thesis to find out the possible assessment methods to assess the risk factors of falls in elderly, the vulnerable groups of elderlies who have higher chances of falling. In addition, the possible falls prevention strategies have been studied and laid out in this thesis. A total of 11 relevant articles were obtained from a reliable database search. The contents of the thesis have been categorized into distinct assessment and prevention headings for ease of reading and finding required information. In the conclusion end, the author has presented his own ideas and discussed the additional need for safety of elderlies

    Exact Wirelength of Embedding 3-Ary n-Cubes into certain Cylinders and Trees

    Graph embeddings play a significant role in the design and analysis of parallel algorithms. It is a mapping of the topological structure of a guest graph G into a host graph H, which is represented as a one-to-one mapping from the vertex set of the guest graph to the vertex set of the host graph. In multiprocessing systems the interconnection networks enhance the efficient communication between the components in the system. Obtaining minimum wirelength in embedding problems is significant in the designing of network and simulating one architecture by another. In this paper, we determine the wirelength of embedding 3-ary n-cubes into cylinders and certain trees.Comment: 13 pages, 5 figure
