The increasing demand for electricity has pushed more effort to focus on renewable energy sources to satisfy the consumer. The renewable energy sources are playing a major role in the generation of electricity. Out of all the renewable energy sources, solar has emerged as one of the best sources of energy since it is clean, inexhaustible and eco-friendly. However, the voltage generated by the solar cell is not sufficient for any consumer load and it is also variable. Therefore, it is necessary to implement DCDC converters for regulating and improving the output voltage of the solar panel. In order to extract the maximum output from the PV (Photovoltaic) panel, a comparative analysis of various MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking) algorithms is proposed in this paper. The proposed enhanced adaptive P&O (Perturb and Observe) algorithm is modeled and implemented with a high gain DC-DC converter. The converter investigated in this paper consists of a single power electronic switch (MOSFET) for its operation, which leads to reduction of switching and conduction losses. The proposed converter has less ripple content and a high conversion ratio. A simulation study of the proposed power electronic converter powered by PV source is carried out in MATLAB/SIMULINK and the results are validated using an experimental setup.
不断增长的电力需求推动了更多的努力，以关注可再生能源，以满足消费者。可再生能源在发电中起着重要作用。在所有可再生能源中，太阳能因其清洁，取之不尽，用之不竭和环保而成为最好的能源之一。然而，太阳能电池产生的电压不足以满足任何消费负荷，而且它也是可变的。因此，有必要采用DCDC变换器来调节和提高太阳能电池板的输出电压。为了提取光伏板的最大输出，本文对各种最大功率点跟踪(MPPT)算法进行比较分析。提出的增强自适应P&O (Perturb and Observe)算法用高增益DC-DC转换器建模和实现。本文所研究的变换器由单个功率电子开关(MOSFET)组成，从而降低了开关和传导损耗。该变换器具有纹波含量少、转换率高的特点。在MATLAB/SIMULINK中对所设计的光伏电源电力电子变换器进行了仿真研究，并通过实验装置对实验结果进行了验证。

Karachi being the first born city of the colonial architecture in Sindh Pakistan has the honor of housing very important and diverse ornamental architectural master pieces. Along with the commercial nucleus; Karachi emerged as a regional educational hub after the partition of the Indian subcontinent in 1947 with several hostel structures and studio apartments. These structures are among the better examples of the pre-colonial and post-colonial architectural influence in the region. Few of them (still surviving) are incorporated in the national list of protected heritage under Sindh Cultural Heritage Preservation Act 1994. This research paper is focused on “the lost importance of the three different hostel (boys’ hostels only) premises in the historic core of the city of Karachi”. Despite possessing similar functions in the past and having the same status of the declared protected heritage at present, each of them has different use and conservation status at present. None of the buildings have endured the original function. This research focuses the reasons of the non-continuation of the original function and the impairments caused to the buildings due to this reason. Methodology followed for the research includes analysis of available archives, physical observation, photographic documentation and interviews with the local inhabitants of the neighborhood. The results and the findings of this research portray that eroding hostel culture has subjected those structures to slow and painful death of their original purpose. These buildings, once popular in the area, are now fading fast and perhaps will cease to exist in the near future unless the immediate precautionary measures are taken. The main conclusion drawn in this paper is that “it is important to preserve those historic premises as they are of significant historic character that remained associated with a number of key political and social personalities of the region. Moreover, they play a vital role in the general architectural value of the region”.

Energy management in home is one of the major issue now-a-days. There are different types of load like shiftable, non-shiftable, seasonal loads and auxiliary loads. In this research article, an energy management system is proposed for home which helps to schedule different loads on the basis of their types and price. It will help to minimize the cost of electricity by shifting load from peak time to off peak time. Emission will be minimized by charging penalty by adopting multi-objective optimization. Each source of energy has its own price of penalty with respect to time. Penalty is charged to minimize the use of sources like commercial supply and diesel generators which emits hazardous gases. In proposed model, user will get electricity from commercial supply, diesel generators and solar panels to provide continuous supply of electricity to fulfill the energy demand. The shiftable loads will be shifted from peak time to off peak time and higher price source to lower price source to minimize the overall price. In this research, we have proposed an EEIR (Economically Effective and Intelligently Responsive) HEMS (Home Energy Management System) by solving multi-objective optimization problem from BILP (Binary Integer Linear Programming) using branch and bound algorithm.

Medical images are an important source of diagnosis. The brain of human analysis is now an advanced field of research for computer scientists and biomedical physicians. Services provided by the healthcare units usually vary, the quality of treatment provided in the urban and rural generally not same. Unavailability of medical equipment and services can have serious consequences in patient disease diagnosis and treatment. In this context, we developed. MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) based CAD (Computer Aided Diagnosis) system which takes MRI as input and detects abnormal tissues (Tumors). MRI is the safe and well reputed imaging methodology for prediction of tumors. MRI modality assists the medical team in diagnosis and proper treatment plan (Medication/Surgery) of different types of abnormalities in the soft tissues of the human body. This paper proposes a framework for brain cancer detection and classification. The tumor is segmented using a semi-automatic segmentation algorithm in which the threshold values selection for head and cancer regions are premeditated automatically. Segmented tumors are further sectioned into malignant and benign using SVM (Support Vector Machine) classifier. Detailed experimental work indicates that our proposed CAD system achieves higher accuracy for the analysis of brain MRI analysis.

Optimum characteristic length of the combustion chamber of liquid rocket engine is very important to get higher energy from the liquid propellants. Characteristic length is defined by the time required for complete burning of fuel. Combustion reactions are very fast and combustion is evaporation dependent. This paper proposes fuel droplet evaporation model for liquid propellant rocket engine and discusses the factors which can affect the required size of characteristic length of the combustion chamber based on proposed model. The analysis is performed for low temperature combustion chamber. A computer code based on proposed model is generated, which solve analytical equations to calculate combustion chamber characteristic length under various input conditions. The analysis shows that characteristic length is affected by combustion chamber temperature, pressure, fuel droplet diameter, chamber diameter, mass flow rate of propellants and relative velocity of the droplet in the combustion chamber.

Today data transmission is very important through different channels. Need of network security comes to secure data transformation from one network to another network. As the complexity of the systems and the networks increases, weakness expands and the task of securing the networks is becomes more convoluted. Duty of securing is done by Cryptography techniques. A colossal amount of data is exchanged over public networks like the internet due to immense accommodation. This includes personal details and confidential information. It is important to prevent the data from falling into the wrong hands. So, due to this factor we use cryptography. Encryption and decryption are the basic terms that are used in cryptography. There are few algorithms which used including, AES (Advanced Encryption Standard), DES (Data Encryption Standard), 3DES (Triple Data Encryption Standard) and BLOWFISH. The main contribution of this paper is to provide an algorithm that is useful for data transformation in cognitive radio networks. In this research, we have drawn a new symmetric key technique that is for the usage of cryptography which is helpful to make the data saved from others.

The built environment of hospital buildings are generally not accepted to be pleasant. In the design of healthcare facility, it is quite important that its design, spatial arrangement and areal distribution must respond to curative needs of people so as the outcome emerge in the form of healing environment in the physical spaces.This kind of healing environment is quite adequately available in the developed countries of the global north. However; in developing countries of the global south like Pakistan, the healing environment in healthcare facilities is neither documented nor evident in any available published literature. Whereas, it needs to be well documented and analyzed. Thus, this study aims to identify the healing environment in two selected hospital buildings in Pakistan that is ICP (Peshawar Institute of Cardiology) and FCP (FC Hospital Peshawar) by determining the percentage of wasted spaces within the building. The selected buildings are analyzed from the following aspects; circulation pattern in the hospital, accessibility, connectivity and barrier free movement within buildings, along with the walkability status of over stressed staff inside the hospital building while navigating, functionality of the schematic designs, the problem of the users concerning repetitiveness in their circulation pattern and the way to increase the efficiency of spaces, their spread and flow in the hospital building. In general, three key factors were investigated in this study, therefore, design determinents, areal distribution and adequate spatial organization. In this regard, total eight design determinants were investigated, i.e. entry, parking, waiting area, connectivity, visibility, walkability, accessibility, and way finding. Study approached the spatial simulation method therefore 3M analysis which is a Japanese model referred as Muda (waste), Muri (over burden), Mura (unevenness) based on the Kaizen theory for eliminating wasted spaces from Hospital buildings. Based on the findings and through the approached tools, the waste spaces within the hospital buildings were removed up to 40%.
