Employability Skills Development Through Collaborative Learning in Business Math: An Onward Journey
Get PDFThis paper reflects upon the journey of the author in facilitating collaborative teaching and learning practices for developing employability skills in General Education Mathematics courses at the undergraduate level. The paper discusses similar experiences of STEM faculty members who have experimented with collaborative learning and teaching for enhancing student experience. The research also discusses how specific employability skills can be developed during various stages of the collaborative teaching and learning model designed for the purpose of the study. Team formation and work in teams are discussed in detail. Finally, the paper concludes with the possibilities of future SoTL research for employability purposes

No full textAbstractThis paper presents a simple Encryption/Decryption technique which enables all kinds of file for encryption and decryption. The method of encryption is not only simple, but also secured enough for transmission. The technique uses simple key generation using an arbitrary matrix. The final encryption is performed through a set of operations using the generated key and original data block and vice-versa in decryption. The generation of keys along with encryption and decryption is performed by the algorithm by putting in the data block and arbitrary matrix. The encryption process can be done by modifying the arbitrary matrix and multiple key can be generated for a single data block

No full textTracking Crossing Targets in Passive Sonars Using NNJPDA
No full textAbstractThis paper presents an effective solution to the problems of multi-target tracking in passive sonar. Since bearing information alone is used, target crossing problems arises in passive sonar. Nearest Neighbor Joint Probabilistic Data Association (NNJPDA) is employed for the information processing. Further a prediction mechanism is used, where the track bearing depends only on the predicted value not on the measurements. This leads to the correct assignment of measurements with the track in the clutter and thereby avoids the track loss. The state estimation is then refined by Kalman filtering based on the corrected measurements from the NNJPDA technique. Thus accurate and continuous track is maintained
La quête identitaire dans l’œuvre romanesque d’Ananda Devi
Get PDFThis article examines three novels by Ananda Devi, a well‑known francophone novelist from Mauritius, the author of many novels, short stories and poetry books. In her novels, theauthor portrays the lives of women, the roles and norms that have been imposed on them, as well as their place in the conservative and patriarchal society in Mauritius and in India.The protagonists of Pagli, Le Voile de Draupadi and Indian tango, whilst searching for their identity, rebel against the society, their families and religion which marginalise them and deny their right to make decisions about their own lives. The protagonists of Devi’s novels by objecting to such a lifestyle, by violating the social norms and breaching bans, discover their identity. Pagli symbolically rediscovers her true name, Anjali freedom and Subhadra her body/sexuality.Key words: Ananda Devi, francophone novel, woman, identity, freedom, violation of social, religious and moral norm
Cyclostationarity Based Sonar Signal Processing
No full textAbstractThis paper presents a reliable method for target vessel identification in passive sonar by exploiting the underlying periodicity of propeller noise signal, using the principles of cyclostationarity. In conventional signal processing methods, random signals are treated as statistically stationary and the parameters of the underlying physical mechanism that generates the signal would not vary in time. However, for most manmade signals, some parameters vary periodically with time and this requires that random signals be modeled as cyclostationary. In the field of sonar, the propeller noise signal generated by underwater vessels is cyclostationary. As a ship propagates in the sea, noise generated during the collapse of cavitation-induced bubbles are modulated by the rotating propeller shaft and this results in characteristic amplitude modulated random noise signal, which can be detected using passive sonar. Processing these signals, the number of blades and the shaft frequency of the propeller can be identified. In this work, cyclostationary processing technique is introduced for processing propeller noise signal and it is observed to provide better noise immunity. A detailed comparison with the conventional DEMON processing is also presented
