Hence, silk could be subjected with the coloration process using\u0000various dye categories. With respect to this, it is proposed in the present work to increase the characteristics of domestic mulberry silk fabric by\u0000treating with collected sericin along with natural nishing sources like aloevera, amla and nochi in varied combinations followed by coloring\u0000process using some specic natural sources. The silk fabrics were then subjected for some specic testing process for measuring the coloration\u0000data, fastness characters, hand values, absorption criteria, uv protection aspects, x ray diffraction micrographs and scanning electron microscope\u0000images. The results received are in the satisfaction level suitable for the production of textile products especially garment and apparels.","PeriodicalId":20712,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the First International Conference on Combinatorial and Optimization, ICCAP 2021, December 7-8 2021, Chennai, India","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73051088","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}

C’est donc l’« odeur » qui devient la cause de tous\u0000les maux ressentis. Mais pour pouvoir étudier ce sujet, les chercheurs ont besoin d’un peu plus\u0000d’informations que « ça pue ! ». Dans une première étape, il convient de comprendre que ce mot contient de\u0000nombreux messages à décrypter : la cause et ses caractéristiques, ses effets sur le riverain qui y ajoute son\u0000apport personnel. Ensuite, après avoir fait un tour d’horizon de ce qu’il se fait habituellement au moyen de\u0000jurys de nez sous différentes formes et jusqu’aux « nez électroniques », l’article montre la nécessité de\u0000trouver un outil tangible qui permette de partager, de manière rationnelle, les informations et de croiser les\u0000différents types de données recueillies. Il se concentre seulement sur une fraction de l’odeur globale : la\u0000perception stricte de l’odorité qui peut alors être décrite de manière objective après une formation adéquate\u0000des sujets. Cette approche montre que l’emploi du langage du Champ des odeurs, développé il y a quarante\u0000ans, apporte toute son efficacité en l’utilisant dans des protocoles adaptés. L’auteur partage une expérience\u0000riche dans le domaine de l’environnement. L’obtention des profils olfactifs spécifiques des sources ou de l’air\u0000respiré par les habitants a permis de distinguer les objets odorants, d’en reconnaître les sources et les\u0000composés qui en sont responsables ainsi que d’en apprécier les relations avec les ressentis de la population.\u0000Il n’en demeure pas moins que les différentes approches ont chacune leur signification et leur intérêt, mais\u0000il convient d’éviter l’erreur de vouloir trouver toutes les réponses avec une seule de ces démarches.","PeriodicalId":20712,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the First International Conference on Combinatorial and Optimization, ICCAP 2021, December 7-8 2021, Chennai, India","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80963654","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}

Dans le cadre de la gestion de l’eau pour le bétail et\u0000spécialement les vaches laitières, un programme portant sur la qualité des eaux utilisées dans les\u0000exploitations d’élevage est mené. L’objectif de ce programme est d’établir un diagnostic qualitatif des eaux\u0000utilisées pour l’abreuvement des bovins laitiers. L’analyse physico-chimique et bactériologique demeure\u0000un outil incontournable de l’enquête sanitaire, car elle permet de mettre en évidence la pollution de l’eau\u0000et également de contrôler l’efficacité des mesures de protection ou de traitement adoptées par les\u0000éleveurs. Le diagnostic qualitatif établi permet alors de mettre en oeuvre des traitements raisonnés des\u0000eaux et cela pour chaque type de source. Pour ce faire, 20 exploitations d’élevage privées modernes ont été\u0000sélectionnées sur deux zones agroécologiques au niveau de la wilaya d’El Tarf (Algérie). L’évaluation d’une\u0000batterie de paramètres physico-chimiques et bactériologiques, relative au contrôle qualitatif des eaux\u0000d’abreuvement de cette catégorie d’animaux d’élevage, a été réalisée sur 120 échantillons au total. Le bilan\u0000physico-chimique établi révèle une composition minérale variée, comprenant aussi bien des éléments\u0000naturels d’origine géochimique que des polluants dus aux rejets domestiques et/ou agricoles. Les\u0000paramètres indicateurs de la pollution organique témoignent essentiellement d’une eutrophisation\u0000phosphorée et/ou azotée considérable au niveau de 40 % des sources d’eau analysées. Néanmoins, les\u0000eaux des réseaux publics et des forages sont généralement indemnes de cette pollution et sont de ce fait\u0000caractérisées par une bonne oxygénation et ainsi considérées de bonne qualité sur le plan physicochimique.\u0000Néanmoins, le bilan bactériologique témoigne d’une contamination des sources étudiées, plus\u0000marquée au niveau des eaux de surface des oueds et souterraines des puits.","PeriodicalId":20712,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the First International Conference on Combinatorial and Optimization, ICCAP 2021, December 7-8 2021, Chennai, India","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81242135","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}

Il s’agit plus précisément de\u0000détecter les changements de l’occupation des sols dans le bassin versant à partir des données satellitaires\u0000multidates, et d’identifier les conséquences de la dynamique d’occupation des sols sur la qualité de l’eau de\u0000surface ainsi que sur la gestion des ressources en eau dans le bassin versant de la Kienké. L’analyse des\u0000changements spatio-temporels de l’occupation des sols a comporté les opérations suivantes : 1) traitement\u0000des images satellitaires comparées à plusieurs dates (2001, 2009 et 2019), 2) élaboration des cartes\u0000d’occupation des sols, 3) et estimation des superficies des classes d’occupation des sols. Les données sur\u0000la qualité de l’eau ont été collectées à travers des prélèvements de cinq échantillons d’eau de la Kienké\u0000analysés au laboratoire. Les résultats montrent une régression de 13 % du couvert forestier et des plans\u0000d’eau au profit des zones anthropisées (palmeraies, tissus urbains, zone rurale, sol nu, etc.). Cette\u0000dynamique est influencée par des facteurs d’ordre anthropiques à l’instar de la croissance démographique,\u0000l’accroissement des activités économiques, l’exploitation forestière et l’expansion de l’agriculture.

In the literary domain, as an intentional act that involves trespassing, and the breaking of rules performed in explicit ways, transgression is often linked to language and form, and also to questions of gender, politics, social behaviour. The following articles, while dwelling on transgression, locate it within the area of children’s fiction, thus operating a first preliminary transgression, inasmuch as this kind of literature has been traditionally moulded by the romantic and pastoral fallacy of childhood as an innocent, untainted, happy condition, and, in turn, by the Victorian cult of the child that thrived on aesthetically idealized representations of childhood and youth, teeming with sound moral principles, healthy didacticism, excellent examples of virtue.","PeriodicalId":20712,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the First International Conference on Combinatorial and Optimization, ICCAP 2021, December 7-8 2021, Chennai, India","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74159034","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}

Moralistic on the one hand, political on the other hand, Victorian patterns of censorship and self-censorship are reflected, critiqued, and satirised by Dickens in various stages of his career, and are related in his work to artistic creativity, language and the imagination. He attacks the utilitarian resistance to fairy tale and especially Maria Edgeworth’s manifesto on the usefulness and uselessness of various genres of children’s literature, and criticizes George Cruikshank’s revisionist project of furthering certain social doctrines, mainly teetotalism, by interpolating moralistic messages into famous fairy tales. Much of this preoccupation is followed up in Carroll’s Alice books. For both, I argue, these didactic revisions are related to patterns of language control, banned words, and euphemisms that they repeatedly probe and parody in their fiction. My essay will examine the representation of language control, self-censorship and verbal training in terms of an early, Victorian-era politically-correct discourse; I will ask what, if at all, Dickens and Carroll’s treatment of these issues may contribute to the current debate surrounding our own politically-correct culture.","PeriodicalId":20712,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the First International Conference on Combinatorial and Optimization, ICCAP 2021, December 7-8 2021, Chennai, India","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90714137","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}

Boyne’s decision to entrust his testimonial narrative to Bruno, the son of an SS commander, produces a representational uncertainty that is reminiscent of Theodor Adorno’s claims on post-Auschwitz aesthetics. Bruno’s fictional testimony is marked by a difficulty in conceptualising experience via language, which reveals voids in his cognizance of reality. This epistemic modality, however, is transgressed by the interaction of words and images in the film version of the novel.","PeriodicalId":20712,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the First International Conference on Combinatorial and Optimization, ICCAP 2021, December 7-8 2021, Chennai, India","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84113696","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}

Had the collection been published just a year later, a revision would have been in order. David Foster Wallace’s Infinite Jest (1996), the encyclopaedic masterpiece set around the grounds of Enfield Tennis Academy, is a great tennis novel. Yet, when critics discuss Wallace’s work on tennis, the focus is usually on his essays and tends to fall into one of two camps: either emphasizing the bodies of Wallace’s dumb jocks, or the divine inspiration that helps them play so well. Once we recognise that Wallace’s treatment of character was itself always dualistic, we can begin to reconcile these two apparently conflicting points of view. Doing so will shed new light on Wallace’s treatment of tennis as a stress-test of the connection between body and soul, and will raise difficult questions about the fate of a country where that test is so necessary.","PeriodicalId":20712,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the First International Conference on Combinatorial and Optimization, ICCAP 2021, December 7-8 2021, Chennai, India","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85940742","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}

Wallace described Kafka’s fiction as conducting a “radical literalization of truths we tend to treat as metaphorical”. In comparing Kafka’s novella and Infinite Jest, the question ‘what has happened to Hal?’ thus means: what metaphor is literalized by Hal’s situation? In both texts, the metaphors represent selfhood and writing fiction; but, contrary to Gregor, Hal has taken up the task of self-becoming and symbolizes literary disclosure and communication – rendering Infinite Jest as a redemptive novel.","PeriodicalId":20712,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the First International Conference on Combinatorial and Optimization, ICCAP 2021, December 7-8 2021, Chennai, India","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81674388","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}

In this essay I consider some of these in the context of visual art.
