PIR in E-Health Using Secured Cloud Database[ ]


Electronic patient health records encompass valuable information about patient’s medical problems, diagnoses, and treatments offered including their outcomes. However, a problem for medical professionals is an ability to efficiently access the information that are documented in the form of free-text. A multitude of systems are now available through which the vision of access to distributed data for personalised medicine or e-Health is now very much a reality , but retrieving these private data’s are very much in question. Private Information Retrieval (PIR) allows a user to retrieve bits from a database while hiding the user’s access pattern. The goal of Private Information Retrieval (PIR) is for a client to query a database in such a way that no one, including the database operator, can determine any information about the desired database record. This can be applied for retrieving useful data’s of patients affected by cancer across the world., while the information is stored in cloud database for each region connected through network. This paper discusses more about hybrid cloud in trust building knowledge discovery for Private informational retrieval. Existing processes for patients’ vital data collection require a great deal of labour work to collect, input and analyse the information. Privacy is also a major issue. Creating and updating these cloud databases also proves to be a difficult task, with major improvement in cancer treatments day by day, offering a solution to the needful users with private dealing is almost welcoming.

Data Leakage Detection Using Cloud Computing[ ]


In the virtual and widely distributed network, the process of handover sensitive data from the distributor to the trusted third parties always occurs regularly in this modern world. It needs to safeguard the security and durability of service based on the demand of usersA data distributor has given sensitive data to a set of supposedly trusted agents (third parties). Some of the data are leaked and found in an unauthorized place (e.g., on the web or somebody’s laptop). The distributor must assess the likelihood that the leaked data came from one or more agents, as opposed to having been independently gathered by other means. We propose data allocation strategies (across the agents) that improve the probability of identifying leakages. These methods do not rely on alterations of the released data (e.g., watermarks). In some cases, we can also inject “realistic but fake” data records to further improve our chances of detecting leakage and identifying the guilty party. The idea of modifying the data itself to detect the leakage is not a new approach. Generally, the sensitive data are leaked by the agents, and the specific agent is responsible for the leaked data should always be detected at an early stage. Thus, the detection of data from the distributor to agents is mandatory. This project presents a data leakage detection system using various allocation strategies and which assess the likelihood that the leaked data came from one or more agents For secure transactions, allowing only authorized users to access sensitive data through access control policies shall prevent data leakage by sharing information only with trusted parties and also the data should be detected from leaking by means of adding fake record`s in the data set and which improves probability of identifying leakages in the system. Then, finally it is decided to implement this mechanism on cloud server.

DIGITAL IMAGE RESTORATION[ ]


Images may be degraded for many reasons for example, out-of-focus optics produce blurred images, and variations in electronic imaging components introduce noise. Reducing blur or noise or both in images is known as image restoration. Multi-channel blind image restoration recovers an original image from several blurred versions without any knowledge of the blur function. In many applications the image to be processed has a multi-channel nature; i.e., there are several image planes available, called channels with redundant as well as complementary information. Here we propose a multichannel blind restoration technique for linearly degraded images without the explicit knowledge of either the Point Spread Function (PSF) or the original image. The blurred noisy image is compressed using 8 by 8 blocks DCT and filtered using zonal filter.

Development of Acquisition of ECG during Treadmill Exercise[ ]


Exercise tolerance testing is an important diagnostic and prognostic tool for assessing patients with suspected or known ischaemic heart disease. During exercise, coronary blood flow must increase to meet the higher metabolic demands of the myocardium. Limiting the coronary blood flow may result in electrocardiographic changes. In this study hardware was developed for the acquisition of ECG during treadmill exercise. The ECG acquired was corrupted by motion artifacts as the subject was constantly moving. In order to obtain clean ECG, adaptive filtering technique was applied. An accelerometer was used to measure the acceleration signal of the vibrations or movement of the trunk as the reference inputs of the adaptive filter. The acquired real ECG and accelerometer data were simultaneously processed and analysed using the most widely used adaptive filtering algorithm, Least Mean Squares (LMS). The results show that the proposed method can be adapted to effectively reduce motion artifacts in stress or exercise ECG.

In most Automation Industrial Process System, the processes such as manufacturing, processing, packaging etc. are performed with automation conveyor mechanism system with some particular processing pattern, If in real time there is need to use this same system to execute another process with some different modified processing pattern. There is a need of reconfiguration of the system to execute modified processing pattern. Traditionally to achieve this, new system has to be developed with new configuration, this will require programming expertise to meet modified processing pattern and are costly. So above problem taken into consideration, the design of a real time reconfigurable industrial system has been developed. The term ‘reconfigurable’ here indicates that the system consisting of various industrial machines and nodes can be configured to change its mode and sequence of operation, thus changing the work process. Such systems may be used in industries where a series of manufacturing operations and processes are implemented to obtain a finished product. Reconfiguration may be needed here to change the design or manufacturing process, to obtain or fulfill the requirements of another final product. To demonstrate the concept, a system resembling an industrial assembly line have been created, consisting of a conveyor belt mechanism and sensors with various other mechanisms operating alongside the conveyor over goods and objects being carried by the conveyor. To enable reconfiguration, new Motion Description Language Architecture (MDLA) schemes that allow the user to describe the set of processes and tasks in the form of a script that the machine understands have been proposed and designed, also developed Application Programming Interface (API) Graphical User Interface (GUI) based software where the user can write the scripts, which are then translated into MDL codes and sent to the machine which starts functioning accordingly.

A Mathematical Model for Predicting Absolute Wax Thickness Distribution In Wellbores and Flow Lines[ ]


Flow assurance governs the success of the fluid journey from reservoir to point of sale. Understanding this concept helps to ensure that any development plan—from exploration through abandonment—is technically viable and designed for optimal operations throughout the field's life. Flow assurance in sub-sea focuses on preventing solid deposits from blocking the flow path. The principal solids of concern are Wax and Hydrates, sometimes Scale and Asphaltenes can also be major threats to flow assurance that must be assessed by design teams. Controlling this solid deposits involves three main strategies; keeping the system pressure and temperature in a region where the solids are unstable (thermodynamic control) or controlling the conditions of solids formation so that deposit do not formed (kinetic control) or allowing solids to deposit, then periodically removing them (mechanical control).This research work is based on mechanical solid control strategies by developing a simple analytical model for predicting the absolute Wax thickness in a specified length of pipeline via the rheological properties of the flowing fluid. Apart from predicting wax thickness rate, this work can also be used to assess prevention and remediation strategies such as insulation effectiveness and pigging frequency during crude oil production.

Effect of Sodium Magnesium Silicate Nanoparticles on Rheology of Xanthan Gum Polymer[ ]


Polymer flooding is known for its ability to assist in enhancing oil displacement during tertiary recovery stage. Most EOR polymers degrade and lose their viscosifying abilities at high salinity and high temperature reservoir conditions (HSHT). Laboratory rheological study of Xanthan gum was carried out before and after incorporating with Sodium Magnesium Silicate under certain conditions (25 and 60 oC; salinity: 0, 3.4, 10, 15 and 20-wt % NaCl). Experimental results show that viscosity of these polymers is strongly affected by salinity, temperature and shear rates. Xanthan gum displays a strong thermal and salinity resistance at low, medium and high shear rates. It was also found that the viscosity solutions increased with addition of sodium magnesium silicate nanoparticles, and exhibit better shear resistance and enduring thermal stability at high salinity than ordinary xanthan gum.

How to Prepare Input File of Reservoir Simulation by Using Reservoir Characterization[ ]


The most generally encountered and certainly the most challenging responsibility in reservoir engineering is the description of a reservoir, both accurately and efficiently. Most of enhanced oil recovery and secondary recovery projects fails due to inadequate and insufficient reservoir characterization and dealing with heterogonous reservoir. An accurate description of a reservoir is crucial to the management of production and efficiency of oil recovery. Reservoir characterization plays a very important role in descripting the storage and flow capacity of a reservoir and also plays a decisive role in reservoir simulation. The main objective of this research is on how to prepare a reservoir simulation input file accurately to receive an accurate output, in other to achieve this we most follow the following steps. Firstly by identifying the degree heterogeneity by using methods such as Lorenz Coefficient L_k and Dykstra-Parsons coefficient V_k, secondly by using existing and recognised techniques such as FZI or HFU, permeability group, DRT to estimate the different flow units and then classifying reservoir rocks (rock typing) in a petrophysical reliable manner using approaches such as RQI, FZI, DRT, winland R35 method and allocating properties to each rock type which will aid in estimating permeability for uncored wells. Finally in order to enhance the accuracy, a comprehensive analysis and comparison of all techniques is evaluated to predict the most accurate and more reliable method to be applied to any reservoir.
