Abstract: Detatiled elaborations are presented for the idea on two-step frequent itemsets Apriori Algorrithm of Association Rules. over the years, a variety of algorithms for finding frequent item sets in very large transaction databases have been developed. The problems of finding frequent item sets are basic in association rule mining, fast algorithms for solving problems are needed. This paper presents an efficient version of apriori algorithm for mining association rules in large databases to finding maximum frequent itemset at lower level of abstraction. We propose a new, fast and an efficient algorithm with single scan of database for mining complete frequent item sets. To reduce the execution time and increase throughput in new method. Our proposed algorithm works well comparison with general approach of improved association rules. Apriori is the best-known algorithm to mine association rules. It uses a breadth-first search strategy to counting the support of item sets and uses a candidate generation function which exploits the downward closure property of support. An improved method is called Improved Apriori Algorithm is brought forward owing to the disadvantages of Apriori Algorithm. Moreover, based on Improved Apriori Algorithm,data mining for market-basket analysis is carried out for the relationship between customers’ transactions recurrences and products& attributes by making use of SQL Server 2005Analysis Services.

Abstract: In This paper we describe the wireless communication networks for measuring the performance of cellular wireless communication networks. And we study the problems of resource of measuring and performance of admission control system in channelized wireless communication networks. For identifying research issues systematically, we propose a research framework system which consists of two modules: optimization of performance for cellular wireless communication networks and network servicing modules. For an in-service communication network, performance optimization module manages audio resources to ensure communication quality of service and optimize system performance. For channelized wireless admission control system, the real-time issues of performance optimization are admission control, channel assignment, power control. The communication network servicing module is event-driven or a periodically resource augmentation plan, which alleviates the performance exceptions and optimizes long-term admission control system revenue by using corrective mechanisms consisting of resource augmentation, channel reassignment, cell rearrangement, and reforming issues.

ABSTRACT: Antimicrobial resistance is a serious and complex worldwide problem requiring the creation of a global surveillance system in order to circumvent such negative trend. This study was aimed at determining the prevalence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria in dried cassava powder (garri) circulating in Ogun State, Nigeria. The susceptibility of the isolated bacterial strains were evaluated using standard agar disc diffusion assay. The results obtained revealed a considerably high zone of inhibition ranging from 17mm – 37mm in diameter to the selected quinolones and cephalosporines. The antibiogram studies also showed that Bacillus subtilis was the most susceptible to all the antibiotics showing 100% susceptibility to perfloxacin, ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin and cefotaxime, 50% to cefuroxime and 71.4% to ceftriaxone. E. coli was however found to show 100% resistance to all the tested antibiotics. In an investigation to determine the most effective antibiotic against the bacterial isolates from dried cassava powder (garri), Levofloxacin was the most effective (P<0.05) followed by ciprofloxacin and cefuroxime. The Gram negative bacteria also showed alarming trend of resistance (100%) to all the tested cephalosporines while ceftriaxone was the mostly resisted by the Gram positive bacteria. The prevalence rate of antibiotic resistant bacteria in this study was found to be 49.21%. It can therefore be said that the presence of antibiotic resistant bacteria in garri suggest the need for proper evaluation and monitoring of this important staple food to safeguard against public health.

Abstract: Studies were conducted on the carbon, nitrogen, carbon/nitrogen ratio (C:N), and vitamin requirements of a recently isolated Rhizopus sp. that is capable of degrading ochratoxin A in vitro. The results obtained showed that glucose supported the best growth of 57.0 mg followed by fructose (51.7 mg) while the poorest growth (1.16 mg) was supported by lactose. Urea was the most utilized of all the nitrogen sources investigated, producing a mycelial dry weight of 90.0 mg while DL-citrulline supported the poorest mycelia growth of 13.0 mg. Results on the effect of various carbon to nitrogen ratio revealed that a C:N ratio of 3:1 produced the best mycelia weight of 28.0 mg while a C:N ratio of 1:2 produced the poorest mycelia weight of 1.7 mg. Among the vitamins studied, pyridoxine was the most utilized with a mycelial dry weight of 60.0 mg followed by cobalamine (43.3 mg) while riboflavin and biotin stimulated the poorest growth (35.0 mg) each.

Abstract: Persistence of Cyazofamid was studied in potato plant, in four types of soil viz., black, clay, sandy loam and loamy sand soils and in three types of water viz., acidic (pH 4.0), natural (pH 7.0) and basic (pH 9.0). All the matrixes were treated with Cyazofamid so as to get concentrations of 1 & 2 ppm. These samples of soil and water were kept in laboratory at ambient temperature. Potato plants were collected from the experimental field. The periodic samples in triplicate were drawn at intervals of 0, 3,7,15 & 30 days after treatment and were processed for analysis. The analysis of plant samples on 0 day (after 2 hrs. of application) showed initial deposition of 1.601 & 2.827 ppm of Cyazofamid when sprayed @ 80 g a.i./ha & @ 160 a.i./ha with half life of 1.74 days to 1.89 days respectively. No residue of Cyazofamid could be detected (detection level 0.02 ppm) on 10th day after application in both the treatments. The analysis of soil samples on 0 day showed mean initial deposition of Cyazofamid as 0.816, 0.817, 0.831 and 0.817 ppm when treated with 1 ppm concentration and 2.704, 1.785, 1.753 and 1.706 ppm when treated with 2 ppm in black, clay, sandy loam and loamy sand soils. The half life varied from 4.86-5.04 days in black soil, 3.02-3.21 days in clay soil, 4.15-4.30 days in sandy loam soil and 3.67-3.90 days in loamy sand soil at 1 and 2 ppm respectively. The analysis of water samples on 0 day showed initial deposition of Cyazofamid as 0.872, 0.8769 and 0.850 ppm in acidic, neutral and basic water respectively at 1 ppm and 1.703, 1.712 and 1.759 ppm in acidic, neutral and basic water respectively at 2 ppm. The half life values varied from 5.7 & 6.1 at 1 and 2 ppm level respectively in acidic water; 4.2, 4.5 days at 1 & 2 ppm level respectively in neutral water and 3.8 and 3.9 at 1 & 2 ppm level respectively in basic water.

ABSTRACT: A field experiment was conducted during cropping seasons of 2008-09 to 2010-11 at Kota to evaluate different sugarcane genotype (COPK-05191, COPK-05192 & CO-05011 under three levels of NPK (150:45:30, 200:60:40 & 250:75:50) in three season (spring and summer). Genotype COPK-05191 recorded highest cane yield and commercial cane sugar (CCS) across the season. Individual cane weight increased significantly upto 200:60:40 NPK/ha. Genotype COPK-05191 gave better yield and net profit, hence could be adopted in the region for optimizing sugar productivity and regulating crushing schedule at factory level. Fertility level of 200:60:40 NPK/ha was optimum for growth and cane yield during spring as well as summer planting.

Abstract: 这篇文章分析了时间、空间、场、质量、电荷、光速、能量---的本质,在此基础上提出电磁场和重力场之间的关系。由于所提供的是物理理论中最基础部分,文中所提供的原理和公式无法从更基本的原理中推导出来,所以有很多是逻辑推理加猜测,它的正确性只有把统一场论理论作为一个工具去解决实际问题时候,才能够体现出来。
