Implementation of MRPrePost Parallel Algorithm based on Hadoop Platform for Large-Data Mining
Abstract: AbstractThe volume, velocity and variety of the data have increased several folds in the past few years. The conventional algorithms and techniques used to mine such huge data are found to be less efficient because these algorithms consider only the large threshold value due to which the number of candidates can be reduced, but this will lead mining association rules production to be inaccurate due to low utilization of data. …

Integration of IoT and Environmental Science: Vehicle Emission Monitoring Perspective
Abstract: — Since automobiles are the primary source of environmental pollution, an increase in automobile ownership also results in an increase in air pollution. Gases such as methane, butane, LPG, smoke (MQ2), carbon monoxide (MQ7), and hydrogen gas (MQ8) are all released from the vehicle as it smokes. Cars produce around half of the MQ2, MQ7, and one-fourth of the MQ9 in our environment, which contributes to global warming. The number …

A Circuit Approach for CMOS VLSI Circuit Leakage Power Reduction
Abstract: Despite the fact that scaling CMOS technology boosted speed, leakage currents always remained an issue. The issue has gotten worse as the scaling has gone into the UDSM (ultra-deep-submicron) range. In order for the circuit to function effectively, these unwanted leakage currents must be reduced to a minimum. It is challenging to create these leakage-free nano-scale CMOS circuits. In this work, the issue of leakage power is addressed, which occurs …
