Divide & Quantum
No full textWhen the operating system was introduced to the world, many functions of it were also introduced that included process management, file management, memory management, networking. As the operating system tends to interact with different operations at the runtime so keeping that in mind we can say that the process management is most essential in an operating system because it allows the operating system to interact with different operations more efficiently and it also improves the timing of the operating systems to interact between the processes. In order to manage between processes many algorithms were introduced by different people and different minds and today we find this as an opportunity develop something new by keeping the previous algorithms in mind and compare them and find a best possible result
Analytical solutions of nonlinear time fractional evaluation equations via unified method with different derivatives and their comparison
No full textThis paper is devoted to addressings the fairly interesting soliton solutions for the time fractional combined Korteweg-de Vries-modified Korteweg-de Vries equation (KdV–mKdV equation) and modified Burgers-KdV equation. The unified method along with conformable, Beta and local M-derivative are used to construct the general structure of solitary wave soliton solutions. The method allows us to find solutions in both polynomial and rational forms. Further, the comparison of solutions are given out through 3D and 2D-plots to expose the impact of fractional parameter on the obtained solutions. The reported solutions are novel and have not been discussed in the literature
Sectarian influences within Islam in Britain with special reference to community
No full textAlthough much is heard from the Media of the Muslim `community' in Britain, the latter is in fact far from presenting a united front. There are divisions between
generations and ethnic origins, and a diversity of religious practice and doctrine. There are many different religious groups at work that originate from the subcontinent, and reflect this wide range. Organisations like Young Muslims UK, Tabligh-i Jamaat, and schools of thought represented by the Deobandis and Barehvis,
to name but four, play a vital role in the life of many Muslims. They both link them back to their roots in the subcontinent and influence the direction that Islam will take in Britain.
The Muslim population in Britain is approaching two million. It is involved in a process of redefining itself as a minority in an alien culture. For the older generation
the conflict has been cultural, their own ethnicity being under seige from the values of the receiving culture. Islam becomes an important ally of ethnic identity. For many
Muslims born in Britain, however, the process is more complex. Their parents' values can seem as strange, or even stranger, than the values of the receiving culture. For
this increasing percentage of the population, their religion can offer an identity. Stimulated by Islam's global revival and the West's reaction to it, some Muslims are attempting to discover a faith stripped of cultural accretions which are considered to be unlslamic. In the process they hope to find the universal Islam which can be practised in any environment. They feel that this is the key to establishing a successful British Islamic community.
The ideal of ammah has always been central in Islam, but now becomes an important concept in the development of Islam in Britain. There are several questions to
be considered: To what degree does an unmrah exist? What is its form? How is it likely to change? What effect will it have on the development of Muslims seeking a more localised identity in Britain? Within this context, what will be the effect of the various organisations and schools of thought at work amongst Muslims? To what degree will they shape the development of Islam in Britain? Are they free from
'cultural accretion' or are they firmly rooted in idiosyncratic local expressions of the faith? Will Islam in Britain be moderate, or strongly revivalist in nature under their influence? Are they unifying or divisive forces? Can they hope to resolve traditional differences and work together in the new environment of Britain?
In spite of the increasing interest in the Muslim presence in Britain, very few
major works have looked at the influence of these various groups in the context of these questions. I know for myself that I could have used this kind of study when working for my M. A. in Religious Studies, and I know of many students in the same position. I feel that this study will therefore contribute not only to the study of Islam but also to the study of the various minority faiths found in Britain
Comprehensive Review: Integration of ICT in Madrassa Education - Addressing Institutional Needs and Challenges
No full textThe educational system of the Madrassa throughout the Muslim dominated nations has an important role in the religious education and development of the character. Nevertheless, these institutions have serious problems related to the development of curriculum, teaching approach, and the further employment of the graduates. This review discusses how there is a pressing necessity to have a systematic implementation of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in Madrassa education, how this bridges gaps in the institutions, enhance teaching learning outcomes, and equip graduates with modern job markets. Based on empirical evidence and institutional case studies, the paper enumerates general obstacles to ICT adoption, suggests sustainable implementation models and recommends frameworks of harmonizing old Islamic pedagogy with new technological applications.

Teacher Professional Development & Well-being in the Era of Hybrid and Remote Instruction: Challenges, Opportunities, and Pathways Forward
No full textThe COVID-19 pandemic caused an immediate shift to remote and hybrid education, which in turn radically changed the needs and well-being outcomes of teacher professional development. This review paper reviews the current literature on teacher professional development (TPD) in hybrid and remote environments, explores the effects of mental health and well-being on teachers, and approaches to evidence-based solutions, which would help to provide quality instruction online and in a hybrid setting, long-term. Results have shown that educators had significant stress, burnout, and emotional exhaustion with high pedagogical requirements when engaging in emergency remote teaching (ERT). Although a portion of the teachers gained new digital abilities and learned new pedagogical prospects, a large number of the educators had difficulties with technology and professional seclusion and incompetence. The review has found that effective TPD in online and hybrid instruction involves key factors such as integrated systemic practices, communities of practice, technology training coupled with development of pedagogy, and organizational support that ensures the well-being of teachers. To proceed, the education system needs to find the balance between technological skills acquisition and humanistic aspects of instruction, taking the emotional and psychological needs of teachers as the key to sustainability of good hybrid and distance teaching.

Qualitative analysis, exact solutions and symmetry reduction for a generalized (2＋1)-dimensional KP–MEW-Burgers equation
No full textNew solitary waves, bifurcation and chaotic patterns of Fokas system arising in monomode fiber communication system
No full textIn this research, the model under consideration is the Fokas system that simulates the dynamics of wave through single mode fiber optics. Dark, bright, kink and periodic optical solitons are yielded using Painlevé approach and semi-inverse variational principle. The constraint conditions for the existence of the solutions also merge during the derivation. The obtained solutions are discussed to depict and support theoretical outcomes through the phase portraits. Further, we have applied the idea of bifurcation and chaos theories to get a better understanding of the planar dynamical system obtained from the studied system. The chaotic solutions for the perturbed dynamical system are also obtained and displayed through graphs. The sensitivity analysis of the model is also investigated, and the results show that the given model is not highly sensitive and is stable. These unique ideas employ symbolic computations to provide dynamical as well as potent mathematical tool related to tackling diverse benign nonlinear wave problems. The dynamics analysis method and numerical results are meaningful and helpful to further study on the reliability control of Fokas system
Urdu-Punjabi Code Switched Sentiment Analysis Empowered by a Deep Learning Framework Integrating XLM-R, and GPT
No full textSentiment analysis is a procedure that uses computational methods, textual analysis, and natural language processing to derive significant insights from textual sources. Sentiment analysis detects and quantifies the attitudes, opinions, and emotional states that individuals convey through textual information. The majority of existing sentiment analysis work is centered on the English language, leaving low-resource languages largely underexplored. Performing sentiment analysis on low-resource languages is challenging due to the unavailability of extensive datasets and associated resources. To overcome the challenge of unavailability of datasets we proposed Large Urdu-Punjabi code switched Corpus for Sentiment Analysis (LUPCSA-25) comprises over 10,00,000 user reviews in Urdu and Punjabi (Shahmukhi). Urdu and Punjabi domain specialists enrolled in PhD provided additional annotations to the dataset. In this research, we examine how head-pruning strategies can enhance both the predictive accuracy and computational efficiency of transformer architectures—specifically XLM-R and GPT-2—for sentiment classification of Urdu–Punjabi code-switched text. After preprocessing the textual data, BERT embeddings are produced and subsequently passed to the proposed classification model for determining sentiment. The performance of the proposed classifier is assessed by comparing it with baseline classifiers. The results demonstrate that the proposed classifiers with head pruning technique surpass current state-of-the art models with a precision rate of 96.4%
Association of renal biomarkers in COVID-19 patients: A retrospective study
No full textBackground: The new severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 is the cause of the transmissible sickness known as coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) (SARS-CoV-2). Although it often presents as an acute respiratory infection, it can also have a negative impact on the kidneys, heart, gastrointestinal, and nervous system. The aims of this study to find out the association of renal biomarkers among dialysis patients in COVID-19 positive and negative. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted in the Department of medical laboratory technology, the university of Haripur, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan. A Total of 129 Dialysis patients blood samples were collected from March 2022 to April 2022 in which 13 males and 20 females are COVID-19 positive while 41 males and 55 females are COVID-19 negative. The obtained data was statistically analyzed by using PRISM version 5.0 by applying two-way ANOVA and Comparisons between Covid positive and negative patients RFTs by using Bonferroni posttest. Results: Male patients with chronic kidney disease (on dialysis) with COVID-19 negative and positive their mean urea difference was 95.20mg/dl and 159.6mg/dl, while COVID-19 negative and positive the mean creatinine difference was 8.534mg/dl and 13.81mg/dl respectively. While there was no significance difference in uric acid concentration in CKD patients with COVID-19 negative and positive. Female patients with chronic kidney disease (on dialysis) with COVID-19 negative and positive their mean urea difference was 103.20mg/dl and 152.6mg/dl, while COVID-19 negative and positive the mean creatinine difference was 8.114mg/dl and 8.584mg/dl respectively. While there was no significance difference in uric acid concentration in CKD patients with COVID-19 negative and positive. Conclusion: This study concludes that there is positive relationship or association of renal biomarkers in COVID-19 positive patients. Significance association between urea and creatinine in COVID-19 positive
