COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF ORGINAL MOVIES AND ITS REMAKES IN INDIA
The remake is a phenomenon both well-known and immediately recognizable but in India it is not theoretically analyzed. However, by analyzing these remakes, we can understand how these films reflect some specific cultural differences between one state and other State in India. Here researcher has taken four original and its remake films to understand the phenomena of remake. The highly intensed watching the films has helped researcher to understand the difference of films original and remakes. Researcher took one Tamil Movie and its remake in Hindi and also a Malayalam Movie and its remake in Tamil. Films are Tamil Singam to Hindi Singam and Malayalam Manichithrathazhu to Tamil Chandramukhi. All the changes made in movies are on the basis of the cultural differences between the regions where the film is introduced. As researcher have done two Tamil movies he came to know that Tamil Industry possess one culture even though it is a remade they try to change it according to their culture. The basic element of films are the audience, a film is made according to them. So that film Industry sticks to the culture of the audiences. -
The catalytic reduction of 4-nitrophenol using MoS2/ZnO nanocomposite
Nanocomposite MoS2/ZnO was prepared by an exfoliation process and characterized. A flower-like morphology was obtained for the hybrid where uniformly spread ZnO is stacked over thin layers of MoS2. A tight interface between the two components coupled with the energy band bending at the junction has resulted in a high activity of the composite towards the reduction of 4-nitrophenol. A complete reduction to 4-aminophenol from 4-nitrophenol took place within 15 min under the optimized conditions. The catalyst has a recyclability of six times without any perceptible decrease in the catalytic activity. 2022 The Author(s) -
Architecture of visible-light induced Z-scheme MoS2/g-C3N4/ZnO ternary photocatalysts for malachite green dye degradation
The synthesis of bilayer heterojunctions has received considerable attention recently. Fabrication of novel bilayer composites is of significant interest to improve their photocatalytic efficiency. In this study, molybdenum disulfide (MoS2), a layered dichalcogenide material exhibiting unique properties, in combination with graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4), a carbon-based layered material, was fabricated with small amounts of zinc oxide (ZnO). Three composites, MoS2/g-C3N4, MoS2/ZnO, and MoS2/g-C3N4/ZnO were prepared via a simple exfoliation method and characterized by various physicochemical methods. The Z-scheme charge transfer mechanism in the prepared ternary composite improves efficiency by inhibiting the recombination rate of electron-hole pairs. It has shown excellent performance in degrading a major water contaminant, malachite green (MG) dye, under visible light irradiation. 2022 Elsevier Inc. -
Design and Development of Adaptive Authentication Model to Detect User Behavior Anomalies
The password-based authentication system has recently become more secure as the riskbased authentication system(RBA) is indentured. Recent research in the area has shown the significant use of 2 Factor Authentication (2FA) and Multi-Factor Authentication(MFA) in many commercial applications using Risk Based newlineAuthentication(RBA). The RBA system monitors the parameters extracted during the user login process, and based on the proposed model, the system raises a multi-factor newlineauthentication to the user. As the vulnerability has increased concerning passwords, fingerprints easy access to any web application may result in a security flow; the reason can be the existing methodology of the RBA system and also the unavailability of the data of the users during the initial login process, which hinders the authentication system during the initial login process as there is no standard method to incorporate RBA in the authentication system. Few researchers have proposed novel approaches to improve the authentication system. Still, to the best of our knowledge, no research has suggested methods to address the authentication system during the initial login process and also provide a robust way, a combination of Machine Learning (ML) and statistical newlineapproaches. Hence, a novel method is proposed for the RBA system during the initial newlinelogin phase using a Hierarchical Sub-Feature Based Model -(HSFBM) for different user newlinecategories. The FAR is comparatively better in our proposed model against the standard newlinemodel, with minimal re-authentication requests for the user. -
CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing of crops: Food and nutritional security
The United Nations established the goal of achieving global food security by 2030 as one of its top sustainable development goals in 2015. The current agricultural harvest is insufficient to accomplish the zero-hunger objective and feed the world's growing population. It would require more extensive and consistent crop production. Gene-editing technologies have recently emerged as viable alternatives to permit precise modifications in genomes with increased efficiency and yield higher agricultural productivity. Due to their simplicity, adaptability, and reproducibility across a diverse variety of species, genetic engineering techniques like CRISPR-Cas9 have become quite prominent. CRISPR-Cas9 gene-editing technology can improve crop yields, quality, stress resistance, food safety, nutritional security, and shelf-life, reduce antibiotic resistance, and hasten plant domestication. Cutting-edge techniques like genome editing (GE) allow for the precise introduction or mutation of specified genes into plant genomes. The advent of programmable nucleases like CRISPR-Cas9 has improved gene editing and potentially improved food production and nutritional security. Knock-out, knock-in, gene activation, gene repression, nuclear rearrangements, base editing, molecular breeding, and epigenome engineering are just a few ways that CRISPR systems can target and change genes. For novel applications in plant genetic engineering, CRISPR-Cas systems can be repurposed for GE toward de-novo speciation; mitochondrial and plastid genome engineering toward enhancing photosynthesis, submergence, and drought tolerance. The versatility of CRISPR-associated systems broadens the scope of crop development applications that they can be used for, especially in improving food and nutritional security, which is the focus of this chapter. 2024 Elsevier Inc.

An hybrid technique for optimized clustering of EHR using binary particle swarm and constrained optimization for better performance in prediction of cardiovascular diseases
The significant adoption of Electronic Health Records (EHR) in healthcare has furnished large new quantities of information for statistical machine gaining knowledge of researchers in their efforts to version and expects affected person health popularity, doubtlessly permitting novel advances in treatment. Unsupervised system learning is the project of studying styles in facts where no labels are present. In comparison to loads of optimization problems, an most beneficial clustering end result does not exist. One-of-a-kind algorithms with special parameters produce special clusters, and none can be proved to be the quality answer given that numerous good walls of the records might be found. In the previous work, a novel Two-fold clustering technique which uses the Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) technique (TFC: LSTM) for the prediction of Cardiovascular Disease (CVD) was proposed. The proposed model was fond to be experimentally efficient; however when applied to large EHR data, the model suffered from optimization issues on the number of clusters formed and time complexity. In order to overcome the drawbacks, this paper proposes a hybrid method of optimization using the Binary Particle Swarm (BPS) and Constrained Optimization (CO) for optimizing the number of clusters produced and to increase the efficiency in terms of decreasing the time complexity. 2022 The Authors -
Properties of alkali-activated concrete (AAC) incorporating demolished building waste (DBW) as aggregates
This study was undertaken to evaluate the potential of demolished building waste (DBW) as aggregates in alkali-activated concrete (AAC). A recent road-widening activity led to the demolition of commercial buildings along National Highway 275, Bangalore-Bantwal, India. DBW was collected from these sites and processed manually at the laboratory facility of CHRIST (Deemed to be University). Processing of DBW was done to obtain both waste coarse and fine aggregates from demolished concrete and brick waste units, respectively. AAC was synthesized by fly ash, ground granulated blast furnace slag, sodium hydroxide, sodium silicate, along with waste aggregate replacement rates of 0, 25, 50, and 75% by weight of natural aggregates. Fresh and hardened properties of developed concrete mixtures were experimentally determined. Results of the study indicate that 28-day compressive strength of 30.4 and 21 MPa was obtained for AAC with 25 and 50% DBW aggregates, which was 8.6 and 36.9% lower than control mix, respectively. Further, there was an increase in the water absorption and a reduction to acid resistance for all the AAC mixes with DBW aggregates. Based on the results obtained, it was observed that AAC with 25 and 50% DBW aggregates find great potential in civil engineering applications. 2021 The Author(s).

Psychological adjustment, choice of game genre and living arrangements among adolescents with and without IGD
In India, the prevalence of internet gaming disorders ranges from 8 to 9%. Adolescents are more likely to become addicted to online games. This study compares teenage gamers with and without Internet Gaming Disorder (IGD) in terms of game genre, psychosocial adjustment, and living conditions with a sample of 80 in each group. The results demonstrate that adolescents with this disorder had significantly higher scores for depression, anxiety, and psychosocial deterioration than adolescents without gaming disorder. Even though the prevalence of males is high, both genders do not significantly differ from one another in psychological adjustment. Another finding is that adolescents with gaming disorders play multiplayer online role-play games and Battle Royal games more frequently than average players. The prevalence of this disorder is also influenced by living conditions; teenagers who stay in hostels or pay guest rooms are more likely to develop a gaming addiction.

Emerging Nanoparticle-Based Diagnostics and Therapeutics for Cancer: Innovations and Challenges
Malignant growth is expected to surpass other significant causes of death as one of the top reasons for dismalness and mortality worldwide. According to a World Health Organization (WHO) study, this illness causes approximately between 9 and 10 million instances of deaths annually. Chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery are the three main methods of treating cancer. These methods seek to completely eradicate all cancer cells while having the fewest possible unintended impacts on healthy cell types. Owing to the lack of target selectivity, the majority of medications have substantial side effects. On the other hand, nanomaterials have transformed the identification, diagnosis, and management of cancer. Nanostructures with biomimetic properties have been grown as of late, fully intent on observing and treating the sickness. These nanostructures are expected to be consumed by growth in areas with profound disease. Furthermore, because of their extraordinary physicochemical properties, which incorporate nanoscale aspects, a more prominent surface region, explicit geometrical features, and the ability to embody different substances within or on their outside surfaces, nanostructures are remarkable nano-vehicles for conveying restorative specialists to their designated regions. This review discusses recent developments in nanostructured materials such as graphene, dendrimers, cell-penetrating peptide nanoparticles, nanoliposomes, lipid nanoparticles, magnetic nanoparticles, and nano-omics in the diagnosis and management of cancer. 2025 by the authors. -
Consumer Adoption Behaviour of Smart, Green, and Sustainable Building Materials for Future Cities and Environment: Extension of UTAUT 2 Model
This study explores various factors that influence the consumers intention to adopt smart, green, and sustainable building materials in Bangalore city, Karnataka, India. The purpose of this study is to evaluate how consumers actual adoption behaviour of smart, green, and sustainable building materials is influenced by their behavioural intentions. A standardized questionnaire was utilized to collect data from 382 homebuilders in Bangalore as part of a descriptive research study. A simple random sampling technique was used along with Structural equation modelling (SEM) was employed to test hypotheses framed. Findings indicate that availability and accessibility, awareness, epistemic values, and technology adoption propensity all positively affect subjective norms. Subjective norms positively impact behavioural intention and adoption behaviour. However, challenges in adoption influenced subjective norms negatively, thus hindering consumer adoption. Awareness had the greatest influence on subjective norms, emphasizing the need for increasing consumer awareness. Subjective norms successfully mediated the relationship between independent factors impacting behavioural intention and adoption behaviour. Significant indirect effects of awareness via subjective norms on Behavioural intention were observed. This study highlights the need of increasing social awareness and cultivating a positive view of social expectations in order to promote the widespread use of smart, green, and sustainable building materials, which will eventually result in long-term sustainable cities and surroundings. 2024 The Author(s). -

Reagent-Controlled Divergent Synthesis of 2-Amino-1,3-Benzoxazines and 2-Amino-1,3-Benzothiazines
A reagent-controlled chemoselective process has been devised for the synthesis of 4H-1,3-benzoxazines and related biologically important heterocycles in high yields under mild conditions. These scaffolds could be efficiently constructed using two different chemoselective reactions that rely on the choice of reagents and reaction conditions. The treatment of various 2-amino-arylalkyl alcohols with isothiocyanates afforded thiourea intermediates, which were reacted in situ with molecular iodine in the presence of triethylamine to give 2-amino-4H-1,3-benzoxazines, whereas the corresponding 2-amino-4H-1,3-benzothiazines were obtained by the reaction of thiourea intermediates in the presence of T3P (a mild cyclodehydrating agent) and triethylamine as the base. The described protocol represents the first example for the synthesis of 4H-1,3-benzoxazines via the dehydrosulfurization method using molecular iodine as the reagent.
