‘Shell-sprinkled beach’: Life; Death; and Water in ‘Mrs Dalloway’ Shrestha Chatterjee pp. 90-94

Abstract

Focusing on the vivid image of water in Virginia Woolf’s novel Mrs Dalloway, I argue that Woolf establishes a modernist aquatic mythology and uses it to explore central concerns of identity and self hood. Water that simpers underneath her texts acts as a vessel for life, comingling effectively both life and death. Through a reading that is centred largely on a eco-critical understanding, I posit that it is in the use of such imagery that Woolf’s high modernist vision is realized.
Keywords: Ecocriticism, Modernism, Imagery, Virginia Woolf.

An Ecocritical Study of J.M. Synge’s Riders to the Sea and the Shadow of the GlenSayantani Ghosalpp. 95-98

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to present “the wilderness” of nature and how it affects the culture in J.M. Synge’s Riders to the Sea and The Shadow of the Glen. The idea of wilderness, signifying nature in a state uncontaminated by civilization is the most potent construction of nature available to New World environmentalism. Wilderness has an almost sacramental value; it holds out the promise of a renewed, authentic relation of humanity and the earth.
This is an attempt to show that individuals’ attitudes in certain contexts are conditioned by the forces of the environment they inhibit. Both these plays selected in this paper reveal that Synge recreates and records the contemporary life of the island less in the journalistic and objective frame. While Riders to the Sea presents a tragic vision of life, The Shadow of the Glen perfectly blends the tragic with comic. Here the sordidness of the situations lightens the comic effect. The journey of life in the island presented in Riders of the Sea results in death and loss and The Shadow of the Glen is coloured by disappointment and dissolution.
Key Words: Ecocriticism, World Environmentalism, The wilderness (deserts, oceans, uninhibited continents), The Scenic Sublime (forests, lakes, mountains), The Countryside (hills, fields, woods), The Domestic Picturesque (parks, gardens)

Fiber Optic Communication Systems: A Brief OverviewTilak Mukherjee, Kushal Roypp. 99-103

Abstract

In recent times, optical fiber communication technology has progressed considerably with continuous exploration of emerging technologies to support more bandwidth, higher data rate and improved security along with reduction in losses. The optical fiber communication system has remarkably low loss and is reliably capable of meeting the demand of massively increased information traffic with minimum number of repeaters in its link. In this paper, we discuss broadly about optical fiber technology theory, types, working principle with its various merits and demerits in the application scenario. Single- mode graded index fiber has been mainly analysed in comparison to multimode fibers and it has emerged as the most efficient means of broad band signal transmission offering distinct advantages. The possible consequences of both linear and nonlinear effects of the optical fiber and other limiting factors that predominantly influence the performance of propagation attributes have been discussed which are reasonably relevant to the thrust areas of optical engineering ,photonics and fiber optic devices.
Keywords: Optical fiber, Single –mode graded index fiber, TIR, WDM, Bandwidth, Dispersion, Nonlinearity.

Biometric Security System in Vehicle StartPuja Kumari, Tilak Mukherjee, Kushal Roypp. 104-108

Abstract

This project paper aims at designing a Biometric Security System to start vehicles. For owner identification, a fingerprint recognition-based identification system is used. Fingerprints are considered to be the efficient method for biometric identification. They possess security, unique for every person and do not change in one’s lifetime. Fingerprint recognition is a mature field of interest today, but still identifying individuals from a set of enrolled fingerprints is a time-consuming process. Improvement in the fingerprint identification system for implementation on large databases e.g. of large numbers of vehicles etc.is a challenging part of modern technology. The issue of vehicle hijacking or car theft due to easy access to vehicle’s functional system can be considerably reduced using a biometric system. The starting of a vehicle's engine involving the necessity of protection and access restriction in many luxurious assets is very important. Biometric systems have served as a strong security system in many different applications including the automobile sector. It relies on specific data about unique biological traits in order to work effectively. This technical system involves running data through algorithms for a particular result, usually related to a positive identification of a user or other individuals. The signals are generated by the Arduino to the appropriate module circuit. This system was implemented in ARDUINO UNO, LCD SCREEN, ONE CHANNEL RELAY MODULE, R305 FINGERPRINT SENSOR and analysis of our one -to -many identifications.
Keywords: Fingerprint Sensor(R305), Relay module, Biometric Security System, Vehicle, Arduino, LCD, Push Buttons.

Insight into Nanotechnology Enabled Intervention to Mitigate COVID-19 PandemicAnal Mandal, Sriparna Depp. 109-117

Abstract

ARPANET was developed by the US Military for a computer to computer communication between various US Defence Research establishments and Laboratories. Further, development of an advanced form of quick communication between the various authorities led the world to step into the first kind of digital age. But as the saying goes “Every action has an equal and opposite reaction” USSR responded by letting its premier spy agency KGB infiltrate the ARPANET and steal the researches of the US Military and it is said that they succeeded into it. Thus the concept of cyber security came into play and after it as the Internet went global more and more, countries began to join the fray of developing their cyberspace for their military and civilian uses. In the age of digitalization, cyberspace is now open for civil uses too rather than military only. But as things came with their pros and cons, Cybercrimes emerged as a potential challenge to deal with. In order to prevent the cybercrimes, civil or military infrastructure began to get digitalized. As regards the internet, the need for cyber security began to grow to protect the very interests of the nations. As the globalisation of the digital age grips the world major developed and developing nations, India is not far behind in this context.
Keywords: Cyberspace, Cybercrime, Cybersecurity, Cyberwarfare, Cyberattack.

Human Resource Management and Its Aspects in LibrariesHafijull Mondal pp. 134-141

Abstract

Human resources area unit the foremost important resource in any library as all the opposite resources can be utilised solely by the employees of the library. A significant portion of the budget is typically spent on the employees of the library. So as to produce best services, it's essential to own well trained and extremely motivated employees to form effective use of the resources of the library and to satisfy the strain of the community. The operations of a library need to be a team effort which needs shut operating relationship between all members of library employees. It is thus important that employee’s carries out the tasks associated with their skills and qualifications. It is a wasteful use of this scarce resource if extremely qualified library personnel do solely routine or clerical library functions. Similarly, for constant reason, it's not necessary to own a extremely qualified bibliothec in all kinds of libraries in spite of size and alternative activities.This article presents a range of relevant and useful study of human resource management to provide a successful modern service at the library of 21st century
Keywords: Human resource management in library, Importance and function of HRM, Manpower planning, Job description, Staff manual, Leadership and performance evaluation.

Protect Women but Stop Harassing Innocent Men TooJoy Sharmapp. 147-153

Abstract

Dowry and Cruelty Laws which were originally meant to be acting as a shield but as the days are passing by; a dangerous trend of misusing these laws is being witnessed in our society. Husbands, their innocent and aged parents, relatives, bed ridden family members are being dragged into and severe harassment is being imposed emotionally, mentally, financially and physically too. There had been many such cases where the entire family has committed suicide for such misuse. Article 21 of the Indian Constitution guarantees Right to Life and Personal Liberty. But when this right gets infringed then a human being is completely broken both mentally and emotionally.
Keywords: Hindu Law, Misuse of Dowry, Cruelty Law, IPC 498A, Law of Contract.

Rainwater harvesting technology for water conservative meansPijush Mallick (Invited Paper)pp. 174-177

Abstract

Now-a-days it’s a big issue worldwide where the deficit or scarcity of drinking water becoming challenging and thus saving of rainwater followed by converting it into potable water is an alternate approach. In general, water conservation means using of less water or recycling used water so that it can be used again. It ismuch important because water conservation helps in saving energy, protect wild animals, and prevent people from using so much water that it cannot be replaced with rain. In the other hand, less water usage means more savings and by saving water, one can reduce the water bill too. The technology of rainwater harvesting for even drinking purposes are discussed here. Three tier filtration technology using gravel, sand and charcoal is used to remove the possible contaminations and reach optimum other traits of the treated potable water.

Apiculture for better economy return of the rural familiesBijay Pal, Dr. Nirlipta Sahapp. 184-189

Abstract

Bees are type of social insect. They colonized in groups. They build their nest on tree branches or cornices and live in them. They are divided in three castes and their homogeneity id very clear. The worker bees build their nests by the bee wax secreted from their bodies and they collect the nectar of the flower and convert it into honey in their body. They store this converted honey in a wheelbarrow. But bees can be nestled in specially designed wooden boxes. The establishment of bee colonies in this type of box for the purpose of collecting honey and bee wax is called bee keeping or apiculture.
