Design and Development of Dual Fuzzy Technique to Optimize Job Scheduling and Execution Time in Cloud Environment
Cloud computing is a type of computing that relies on sharing a pool of computing resources, rather than deploying local or personal hardware and software. It enables convenient, on-demand network access to a shared pool of configurable computing re- sources (e.g., applications, storage, networks, services, and servers) that can be swiftly provisioned and released with minimal management control or through the interaction of the cloud service provider. The increasing demand for computing resources in the cloud has made elasticity an important issue in the cloud. The availability of extending the resources pool for the user provides an effective alternative to deploying applications with high scalability and processing requirements. Providing a satisfactory Quality of Service (QoS) is an important objective in cloud data centers. The QoS is measured in terms of response time, job completion time and reliability. If the user jobs cannot be executed in high load and the job is crashed, it will enormously increase the response time and also push up the job completion time. Also due to load, the jobs may be still in the waiting queue and could not find a resource to execute. In such a situation, the user notices a big response delay and it will affect the QoS. Towards ensuring QoS, this research proposes the following solution - Dual Fuzzy Load Balancing for jobs. Dual Fuzzy Load Balancing balances the load in the data center with an overall goal of reduction of response and execution time for tasks. The proposed solutions were simulated in the Cloudsim simulator and performance metrics in terms of job response time, job completion time, resource utilization, a number of SLA violations, and along with the cost comparison to the existing algorithms of Load Balancing. The proposed solutions are also implemented in a real cloud environment and the effectiveness of the solution is evaluated. -
Design and development of load balancing algorithm for enhance cloud computing performance
Software Applications have taken a leadership position in the field of Information Technology to reduce the human workload. In the case of distributed applications, the scalability of the application is a matter of newlineconcern in the present dynamic scenario. The fast developments in computing resources have reduced the cost of hardware and increased the processing capability of the system remarkably. Still, hosting a distributed newlineapplication in a higher end system is not recommended due to many reasons. Firstly, when there is a massive demand in the usage of the application which is beyond the limit of the system, there is no way to scale newlineit. The second reason is that when the system usage of the application is minimal, the entire infrastructure dedicated to the targeted application will remain idle. newlineDue to the wide acceptability of the industry on cloud computing, the variety of applications are designed to target the cloud platform which is one of the challenges for efficient load balancing in the cloud newlineenvironment. A fair distribution of workload among the available resources is mandatory to improve the efficiency of the cloud platform. To share the workload, a useful load balancing strategy, as well as a timely invocation of the plan, is essential. Invocation of the approach known as triggering policy can be different in centralised and distributed scenarios. Since cloud applications are running in a distributed situation, through this research newlinework, the researcher puts forward a complete framework for balancing load in different types of the request generated in Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) platform. newlineAs a progressive model, this research work continuously focuses on improving the performance of the load balancer in the IaaS platform. Since the cloud data centres are spread across the globe, a centralised monitoring system to monitor and analyse the resource utilisation in different data newlinecentres is an essential requirement to see the load fluctuations in different clusters. -

Typically, about 51% of the groundwater satisfies the drinking water worldwide and is regarded as the major source for the purpose of irrigation. Moreover, the monitoring and assessment of groundwater over bore wells is essential to identify the effect of seasonal changes, precipitations, and the extraction of water. Hence, there is a need to design a depth sensor probe for bore wells so as to analyze/monitor the quality of underground water thereby estimating any geophysical variations like landslides/earthquakes.

WSN is the major promising technologies that offer the real-time monitoring opportunities for geographical areas. The wireless medium in turn senses and gathers data like rainfall, movement, vibration, moisture, hydrological and geological aspects of soil that helps in better understanding of landslide or earthquake disasters. In this paper, the design and development of geophysical sensor probe for the deep bore well so as to monitor and collect the data like geological and hydrological conditions. The data collected is then transmitted by wireless network to analyze the geological changes which can cause natural disaster and water quality assessment. 2023 The Authors.

Thermal analysis techniques are widely used in both industrial and scientific domains to understand the changes in structural and chemical composition of materials. The structural and chemical composition of most of the materials undergoes changes when heated. Using various thermal analysis techniques such changes are monitored in various atmospheres of interest. Through these analytical experimental techniques the physical properties of the substance can be studied as a function of temperature. These techniques can be used to characterize, qualitatively and quantitatively a huge range of materials over a substantial temperature range. Results from the thermal analysis instruments can be obtained quickly and henceforth it has wide variety of applications. These thermal methods find widespread use for both quality control and research applications on polymers, pharmaceutical preparations, clay, minerals, metals and alloys. Differential thermal analysis is one of the thermal analysis methods, which records the difference in temperature (??T) between a substance and an inert reference material as a function of furnace temperature or time. Any transformation ?? change in specific heat or an enthalpy of transition ?? can be detected by Differential Thermal Analyser (DTA). The automated DTA is available readily from various manufacturers but it is expensive. Therefore researchers usually prefer to design and build their own instruments as per the individual requirements of experiments under various specialized conditions. Furnace, sample holder, controlled heating source, low noise-high gain amplifier and differential recorder are the main units of a differential thermal analyser. In the present work, we have made an attempt to design and fabricate a low cost differential thermal analyser for the thermal analysis of materials. -

Design and Implementation Bidirectional DC-AC Converter for Energy Storage System
This article proposes a bidirectional single-phase dc-ac converter with triple port converter (T-PC) for application of energy storage. This proposed converter provides three ports such as ac port, dc port, and dc bus port to achieve three power interfacing ports. For the direct conversion process, dc port is directly connected to T-PC, and direct power will be exchanged between energy storage device (ESD) and grid when the ESD voltage peak amplitude is lower than the ac voltage. Thus, a dc-dc converter downstream power process gets reduced, and power loss is decreased considerably. Due to multilevel characteristics, switching losses in the T-PC can be reduced. The efficiency of the overall bidirectional dc-ac conversion process can be increased significantly. The circuit model, working principle, and modulation control of T-PC-based bidirectional dc-ac conversion concepts are analyzed. A 1.5-kW test-bench model is developed and its effectiveness is verified to find the merits of suggested conversion. 2021 IEEE. -
