Apart from these benefits, it faces some challenges like communication, coordination, trust and configuration management etc. These challenges arise primarily due to physical, cultural and time zone differences. The empirical studies highlight that the existing Global Software Development solutions do not fully meet the user needs as there are still several gaps in these solutions. Therefore, to fulfill these gaps, there is a need to develop novel frameworks that address outstanding issues. In this paper, we have attempted to address the aforesaid GSD challenges. The practitioners can benefit from our proposed framework during the execution of GSD projects. The proposed framework mainly focuses on the root causes of the two principal challenges namely the communication and cultural differences. We believe that if the team members of a software project can communicate effectively and show considerations for others by imparting due reverence to the cultural norms, then the other residual issues can easily be reduced and minimized.","PeriodicalId":14142,"journal":{"name":"International journal of engineering and technology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-02-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81274939","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Moreover, death due to heart disease is increasing day by day. So the heart disease prediction systems play an important role in the prevention of heart problems. Where these prediction systems assist doctors in making the right decision to diagnose heart disease easily. The existing prediction systems suffering from the high dimensionality problem of selected features that increase the prediction time and decrease the performance accuracy of the prediction due to many redundant or irrelevant features. Therefore, this paper aims to provide a solution of the dimensionality problem by proposing a new mixed model for heart disease prediction based on (Naive Bayes method, and machine learning classifiers). In this study, we proposed a new heart disease prediction model (NB-SKDR) based on the Naive Bayes algorithm (NB) and several machine learning techniques including Support Vector Machine, K-Nearest Neighbors, Decision Tree, and Random Forest. This prediction model consists of three main phases which include: preprocessing, feature selection, and classification. The main objective of this proposed model is to improve the performance of the prediction system and finding the best subset of features. This proposed approach uses the Naive Bayes technique based on the Bayes theorem to select the best subset of features for the next classification phase, also to handle the high dimensionality problem by avoiding unnecessary features and select only the important ones in an attempt to improve the efficiency and accuracy of classifiers. This method is able to reduce the number of features from 13 to 6 which are (age, gender, blood pressure, fasting blood sugar, cholesterol, exercise induce engine) by determining the dependency between a set of attributes. The dependent attributes are the attributes in which an attribute depends on the other attribute in deciding the value of the class attribute. The dependency between attributes is measured by the conditional probability, which can be easily computed by Bayes theorem. Moreover, in the classification phase, the proposed system uses different classification algorithms such as (DT Decision Tree, RF Random Forest, SVM Support Vector machine, KNN Nearest Neighbors) as a classifiers for predicting whether a patient has heart disease or not. The model is trained and evaluated using the Cleveland Heart Disease database, which contains 13 features and 303 samples. Different algorithms use different rules for producing different representations of knowledge. So, the selection of algorithms to build our model is based on their performance. In this work, we applied and compared several classification algorithms which are (DT, SVM, RF, and KNN) to identify the best-suited algorithm to achieve high accuracy in the prediction of heart disease.

The concern for implementing an adaptive sustainable strategy that interacts with wetlands and rivers in the field of urban landscape should be prioritize as the burning question that need to be answered. This paper will be emphasizing on the strategies & guidelines to restore a riparian wetland through imputing wetland sensitive technique saving the riparian edge as well as creating a value of this wetland by suggesting some urban programs that will not only provide recreational value but also provide economic benefit to the local people. In this research there will be a sole intention to develop sustainable and riparian sensitive guidelines which would especially be applicable for riparian wetland development that leaves least impact on nature and promote the adjacent community life and wellbeing of urban health.","PeriodicalId":14142,"journal":{"name":"International journal of engineering and technology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80818485","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It shows elastic behavior at initial stage and damage-plasticity behavior beyond elastic limit. Therefore, development of material behavior model of concrete is a complex phenomenon. In this study, concrete damage plasticity theory has been described under experiment on concrete cylinder considering uni-axial compression loading and interpreted with analytical data calculated using CEB-FIP model code equation. The code has divided the stress-strain curve for concrete compression into three sections according to concrete’s elastic and non-elastic behaviors. Those three sections have been considered to calculate analytical data. In experiment, concrete behavior has been observed in two phases. The damage value for different stresses at the various points on the stress strain curve has been calculated. According to analytical data, the concrete shows elastic behavior up to 8.3MPa stress point and no damage occur in the concrete within the limit. However, in experimental data, concrete shows elastic behavior up to only 2.28MPa and damage occurred beyond the stress. Finally, the percentage of damage of concrete due to compression obtained from analysis and experiment has been assessed and compared. Above 32 percent of concrete damage is found for 22.5 MPa in both cases.","PeriodicalId":14142,"journal":{"name":"International journal of engineering and technology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90982982","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The experiment was conducted at full load and a speed of 1600 rpm. The results showed distinct temperature trends for all the CO2 ratios and biogas fractions while radiation absorption effect of high CO2 content inhibits the combustion. Biogas with 35% CO2 proportion and a fraction of 50% produced the highest maximum temperature and heat released. The combustion resulted in a lower PPRR minimizing the higher-ringing strength tendency. At a 40% biogas fraction and 25% CO2, which simultaneously showed the highest ITE of 38.29%, the lowest BSFC of 7.41 g/kWh was achieved. An increase in the biogas fraction indicated a significant decrease in the nitrogen oxides (NOx) and particulate (PM) emissions by approximately 62.66, and 26.59%, respectively. Also, an increase in the diluent CO2 content decrease the carbon monoxide (CO) and unburned hydrocarbon (UHC) emissions by approximately 20.30, and 38.83%, respectively.
