Water quality characterized as a measure of the physical, synthetic, organic, and microbiological characteristics of water. Water quality monitoring and measurement give an experiential proof to support decision making on issues related to health and environmental impact. Maritime operations are one of the factors that contributed to the environmental impact, particularly on the water quality status. The interactions of Lumut water (Dinding River) with several maritime operations nearby can lead to marine pollution and bring negative effect to the natural habitation. Through preliminary observations, oil spillage and garbage were discovered at the surface water of Dinding River. This study is conducted to identify the current status of water quality at Dinding River. Water samples from 5 fixed stations along the river were collected regularly and analyzed to determine the status of water quality based on the chosen water parameters - Conductivity, Total Suspended Solids, pH, Total Dissolved Solids and Dissolved Oxygen. Pollution Index is used as a tool to determine the status of water quality at the research area. The results show that the water at Dinding River is moderately polluted. 10 30 2019 5591 5595 CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy www.ijitee.org true 10.35940/ijitee.L4016.1081219 https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/L40161081219/ Universiti Kuala Lumpur Malaysian Institute of Marine Engineering Technology (UniKL MIMET), Lumut, Malaysia A. Khairi* This paper explains the role of REPUSM in providing alternative education for Rohingya refugees’ children in Penang island. Rohingya refugees are Muslims from Myanmar (Burma). They are forced to flee across the border of their country of origin due to the persecution of the government and the abuse from the locals Buddhist. This desperate condition leave Rohingyas people no choice, except to be refugees. Unfortunately, lives as refugees are not easy especially in Malaysia because the host government have not recognized them. However, the government still allow the United Nation High Commissioner of Refugees (UNHCR) to assist the Rohingyas and other refugees based on humanitarian aspect. The Rohingyas are lives in uncertainty because the government is not responsible to assist them. Hence the reason why other parties in Malaysia took some initiatives to aid them from several aspects, including the Research and Education for Peace Unit, School of Social Sciences, Universiti Sains Malaysia (REPUSM). This department is from academic background that strives to assist the Rohingya in Penang Island. But, as an academic institution, helping Rohingya refugees is challenging because of certain difficulty. Therefore, in order to overcome the problems, the REPUSM took the alternative way to create a foundation body and register it as non-governmental organization to have a better operation for the sake of Rohingya refugees. As NGO, it helps REPUSM to manage and provide alternative education for Rohingya children with hope they can adapt the local culture and environment in Penang. 10 30 2019 5596 5599 CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy www.ijitee.org true 10.35940/ijitee.L4017.1081219 https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/L40171081219/ Maritime Engineering Technology (MET) Section, Universiti Kuala Lumpur-Malaysian Institute of Marine Engineering Technology (MIMET), Lumut, Perak, Malaysia.

Online booking system is a web-based system that is designed for reservation management. The booking system is accepted by allowing potential customers to make bookings and payment for an activity or service through the website. This service is managed online, which significantly reduces staff’s burden and eliminating any occurrence of double bookings. This paper presents the design of an online booking of room and ferry tickets for the marine tourism industry in Terengganu. This system provides facilities to customers to make the room and ferry ticket reservation online and print out their tickets themselves. Nowadays, companies are still using the manual system where the booking is done on paper and recorded using a manual filing system. The new system is needed to substitute the manual booking system to increase more tourists, both local and foreign, to travel in Malaysia. The Software Development Life Cycle (SDCL) and Waterfall Model are used in the software development processes which consist of 6 phases. The development of this system includes features such as user-friendly, data management, payment process and inventory management. 10 30 2019 5600 5605 CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy www.ijitee.org true 10.35940/ijitee.L4018.1081219 https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/L40181081219/ Malaysian Institute of Industrial Technology, Universiti Kuala Lumpur, Johor, Malaysia.

Not only does it result in an increase in cost and service disturbances, it also has a severe impact on the sustainability of trucking firms in the market. In an effort to control high driver turnover, trucking firms have tried to execute different driver recruitment and retention procedures that include salary increases, rewards and easy-going schedules. With reference to this challenging scenario in Malaysia, this paper seeks to investigate the influencing factors that lead to truck driver shortage in the field of haulage. Besides that, this paper investigates on the factors that can encourage truck drivers in remaining with their job. In order for the paper to reach its objectives, survey questionnaires were distributed to truck drivers throughout the district of Johor Bahru to attain relevant data. The researcher expects that there are many more reasons as to why truck drivers decide to quite their job and more effective strategies should be studied and implemented in order to retain these worthy and qualified drivers from leaving the company. Retaining qualified as well as well-disciplined truck drivers is basically the ultimate goal of all haulage firms as this would save a lot of incurred expenses especially when recruiting new drivers. 10 30 2019 5611 5613 CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy www.ijitee.org true 10.35940/ijitee.L4020.1081219 https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/L40201081219/ Industrial Logistic, Universiti Kuala Lumpur - Malaysian Institute of Industrial Technology (UniKL MITEC), Johor, Malaysia.

This is because real-time information is used as the basis for an organization to make decisions that will affect the business if the information obtained is inaccurate, slow and outdated. For SMEs, this is a great challenge as it faces capital constraints and outdated technological applications. Thus, the purpose of this study to examine the challenges faced by SMEs in managing the real-time information to their inventory management and the impact on the overall business performance. A qualitative method was adopted where the in-depth interview was using to extract the information. Based on the saturation principle, the respondent was selected specifically from the SMEs in food manufacturer based in Malacca Halal Hub area. The finding of this study has supported the previous study on the challenges and issue of real-time information facing by the SMEs. A notable finding in this research is that SMEs is employing a skilled worker to manage the absence of an information system to manage real-time information and still capable to generate a profit from the business. This study extended the previous finding and offer an opportunity for further exploration in this area. 10 30 2019 5614 5618 CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy www.ijitee.org true 10.35940/ijitee.L4021.1081219 https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/L40211081219/ Research Scholar, Department of Mathematics, Queen Mary’s College, Chennai, Tamilnadu, India.

Among the many ways to perform it, one of them is through facial expression detection since it is a spontaneous arousal of mental state rather than a conscious effort. Sometimes emotions rule us in the form of the choices, actions and perceptions which are in turn, a result of the emotions we are overpowered by. Happiness, sadness, fear, disgust, anger, neutral and surprise are the seven basic emotions expressed by a human most frequently. In this period of automation and human computer interaction, it is a very difficult and tedious job to make the machines detect the emotions. Facial expressions are the medium through which emotions are shown. For one to detect the facial expression of a person, colour, orientation, lighting and posture play significant importance. Hence, the movements associated with eye, nose, lips etc. plays major role in differentiating the facial features. These facial features are then classified and compared through the trained data. In this paper, we have constructed a Convolution Neural Network (CNN) model and then recognised different emotions for a particular dataset. We have found the accuracy of the model and our main aim is to minimise the loss. We have made use of Adam’s optimizer and used loss function as sparse categorical crossentropy and activation function as softmax. The results which we have got are quite accurate and can be used for further research in this field. 10 30 2019 3433 3439 CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy www.ijitee.org true 10.35940/ijitee.L2589.1081219 https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/L25891081219/ Department of Biotechnology, Noida Institute of Engineering and Technology.

By 2022, Government of India targets to install 175 GW of renewable energy in the country among which solar energy shall contribute 100 GW. This paper, discusses the impact of the important decision taken by Government of India with regards to the levy of Safeguard Duty (SGD) on solar photovoltaic panels and cells imported into the country. This paper analyses the impact on the capital cost of the solar projects on account of the imposition of SGD and the mechanism to be adopted under the Change in Law provision under the Power Purchase Agreements (PPA’s) for restoring the Solar Power Developers (SPD’s) to the same economic position as prior to imposition of SGD. A methodology has been proposed to derive a normative tariff pass-through based on parameters considered in CERC RE Tariff Order, which can be made applicable to all projects which are reeling under the impact of SGD to recover the impact on the capital cost of the project. Further, an analysis to determine the required pass through in tariff on account of SGD based on normative project cost values which can be made applicable to all affected solar projects has been carried out. Upon consideration of the different project parameters and cost structures for various projects and an early resolution of the issue to reduce the burden on the SPD’s, it is deduced that pass through in tariff based on normative project cost values remains the best option for all stakeholders concerned. This work will be particularly applicable for projects which were already bid out prior to the date of SGD initiation, and were under construction or where construction was about to commence, and hence would be impacted by applicable SGD. Since the impact of imposition of SGD is still being analyzed, this may be one of the first papers and result in setting up of precedent for future papers & numerous case studies revolving around a specific solar power project. 10 30 2019 3514 3520 CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy www.ijitee.org true 10.35940/ijitee.L2618.1081219 https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/L26181081219/ College of Teacher Education, Cagayan State University, Lal-lo, Cagayan, Philippines Mia Q. Columbano* Cooperative learning is an educational approach which aims to organize classroom activities into academic and social learning experiences (Gillies, 2016). There is much more to cooperative learning than merely arranging students into groups, and it has been described as "structuring positive interdependence. Students must work in groups to complete tasks collectively toward academic goals. Unlike individual learning, which can be competitive in nature, students learning cooperatively can capitalize on one another's resources and skills, asking one another for information, evaluating one another's ideas, and monitoring one another's work, (Chiu, 2008). This study aims to find out how cooperative learning through structured and unstructured grouping schemes compare in terms of their effectiveness in reinforcing students’ Mathematics achievement and the difficulties encountered by the students in both structured and unstructured groups. The one-shot quasi-experimental research design specifically the pre-posttest design was employed in the study. Participants of this study were the first year students of the College of Teacher Education of Cagayan State University. Descriptive and inferential statistics like frequency count, percentage, mean and t-test for dependent and independent samples were used to interpret the data. The integration of cooperative learning strategy, either structured or unstructured grouping schemes reinforce the performance of students in Mathematics. However, cooperative learning has far better results when unstructured grouping scheme is employed among students. Since the students find difficulty on simplifying expressions with rational exponents to radicals, composition of functions, solving linear and quadratic equations and solving word problems on linear and quadratic equations; intervention measures such as modular approach in teaching, simulation activities and remedial teaching were suggested to address such difficulties and to enhance the performance of the students in Mathematics particularly in College Algebra. 10 30 2019 3774 3781 CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy www.ijitee.org true 10.35940/ijitee.L2683.1081219 https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/L26831081219/ Research Scholar, Annamalai University.

Building and demolition of structures are common in developing nations owing to fast urbanization taking place. These operations produce an enormous quantity of waste products that are detrimental to the environment, requiring an efficient method of waste management. Construction and Demolition Waste Management (C&DWM) methods frequently embrace the 3R (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle) principle for suitable waste management in construction sites. Managing different waste in separate areas of the industry seems very important nowadays. Most contemporary Western counties around the globe set separate laws to reduce and handle the quantity of waste in various areas of their industries as well. However, waste manufacturing is inevitable in the building sector, and no building site is less waste. Different kinds of waste in building sites can cause infinite social and environmental issues. It seems crystal clear that there is a huge need for waste management in such a scenario. A fresh idea on building waste management has been suggested in latest years is "3R" concept, which is based on three key waste management concepts such as reuse, recycle and reduce. Waste management was discussed in the introduction chapter. Then Construction type of waste was evaluated after Managing was reviewed, then various kinds of waste followed by how to do energy recovery through "3R" principles and lastly how to execute energy recovery through the "3R" principles mentioned.

The contaminated soil is referred to as waste soil which has different settlement rates due to the various categories and complex characteristics of waste. The degradation of waste causing percolation of leachate into soil affecting the strength and stability of soil. This paper includes the analysis of geotechnical properties and settlement analysis of waste soil and its comparison was done with natural soil. The geochemical analysis was carried out by Energy Dispersive X- Ray Spectroscopy (EDX) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). The elemental analysis of soil exhibited presence of high oxygen and silica content in uncontaminated soil. The analysis depicted that specific gravity, maximum dry density (MDD), permeability and California bearing ratio (CBR) showed decreasing trend variation for polluted soil. It was observed that cohesion for contaminated soil was found to be increased thereby increasing the shear strength of soil. Additionally, temperature, pH and moisture content hold a significant position for assessing the settlement. The settlement of soil due to biodegradation of MSW is estimated using empirical mathematical model for dump site depending upon pH, moisture content and temperature. Additionally, settlement is evaluated keeping in view the settlement due to biodegradation of MSW on soil, which further helped in determination of the suitability of the site for the construction and other recreational purposes. 10 30 2019 2378 2381 CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy www.ijitee.org true 10.35940/ijitee.L2984.1081219 https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/L29841081219/ Assistant Professor, Mechanical Engineering Department, Anurag Group of Institutions, Hyderabad, India.

A warmth shield is intended to shield a substance from retaining extreme warmth from an outside source by either dispersing, reflecting or basically engrossing the warmth. Because of the a lot of warmth radiated by inward burning motors, heat shields are utilized on most motors to shield segments and bodywork from warmth. Just as assurance, compelling warmth shields can give a presentation advantage by lessening the under-cap temperatures, accordingly decreasing the admission temperature. Warmth protecting is important to avert motor warmth from harming heat-delicate parts. Most of more established vehicles utilize straightforward steel warmth protecting to diminish warm radiation and convection. Itis currently most regular for present day vehicles are to utilize aluminum warmth protecting which has a lower thickness, can be effectively shaped and does not erode similarly as steel. Higher execution vehicles are starting to utilize fired warmth protecting as this can withstand far higher temperatures just as further decreases in warmth move 10 30 2019 1479 1485 CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy www.ijitee.org true 10.35940/ijitee.L3091.1081219 https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/L30911081219/ University of Petroleum and Energy Studies, Dehradun & Indian Oil Corporation Ltd., Noida (U.P), India.

In India there are nearly 45000km of cross- country pipelines in operation, safety and reliability of this network of pipelines play a major role in the energy distribution security of the country. A cross country pipeline can fail due to various reasons primary among these are corrosion and third-party damage. In a populous country like India third party damage has emerged as a newest threat to the pipelines, as on date nearly 40% of all pipeline failures are due to third party damage. Third-party damage to an underground pipeline is generally defined as a category of damage caused to the pipeline due to the activities of an outside (other than the pipeline owner or its authorized representative) agency, for example an agency building road across the pipeline right of way may cause rupture of the pipeline due to uncontrolled use of earthmoving equipment. Most of the third-party damages are caused due to ignorance or negligence, as the third-party damage is caused by human error, it does not have any trend and random in nature. Unfortunately, majority of third-party damage leads to severe and instantaneous failure of the pipeline leading to release of highly inflammable content that can cause widespread destruction of life and property. To minimize the possibility of third party damage to a reasonably low rate, it is necessary that maintenance and inspection (M&I) practices are properly oriented, this is possible only when the weight of the factors responsible for third party damage is known and M&I programme is designed accordingly. This paper proposes a model for calculating weight of various factors responsible for third party damage and how the model can optimize M&I efforts as well as build best possible defense against third party damage for an underground high-pressure cross-county hydrocarbon pipeline. 10 30 2019 4529 4540 CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy www.ijitee.org true 10.35940/ijitee.L3209.1081219 https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/L32091081219/ Research Scholar, Sathyabama Institute of Science and Technology, Chennai (Tamil Nadu), India.

In the Construction sector the need of cement is expanding step by step for fulfilling the need of improvement of foundation developments. The creation of Ordinary Portland concrete emanates the enormous amount of CO2 into the climate. Hence, it is basic to discover choices to make the solid eco - neighborly. Low calcium fly ash based geopolymer cement is a substitute choice for bond based cement. It is an inorganic alumina-silicate compound, blended from fly ash remains. The exploratory work on Geopolymer cement is to assess the impact of different parameters influencing its compressive quality and usefulness of cement so as to improve its general execution was extended. Basic arrangement utilized for present examination is mix of sodium hydroxide and sodium silicate. By applying the Nano Technology, expansion of Nano silica is to improve the quality of cement. The essential distinction between geo-polymer cement and Portland bond cement is the binding property. The silicon and aluminum oxides in the low-calcium fly slag responds with the soluble fluid to frame the geo-polymer concrete that ties the free coarse aggregate, fine aggregate, and other un-responded materials together to shape the geo-polymer concrete. As on account of Portland bond concrete, the coarse and fine totals possess around 75 to 80% of the mass of geo-polymer concrete. The impact of totals, for example, reviewing, precision and quality, are viewed as equivalent to on account of Portland bond concrete. Along these lines, this segment of geo-polymer solid blends can be structured utilizing the instruments as of now accessible bond for Portland concrete. The principle goal of this exploration work is to break down the carbon dioxide free cementitious material with its quality, functionality properties and their impacts on Geopolymer concrete for maintainable improvement. 10 30 2019 4436 4439 CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy www.ijitee.org true 10.35940/ijitee.L3676.1081219 https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/L36761081219/ Associate Professor at VIT Bhopal University, Madhya Pradesh.

India is a young country with lots of opportunities and possibilities to flourish and enjoy the worldwide information. The youth, particularly, in India is growing up within a world of inescapable technology as the first generation learners. The medium of exchanging the information has changed; now the information exchange takes place through Facebook, Twitter, Emails, YouTube, WhatsApp and so on, to communicate and disseminate information and knowledge with others. This contemporary generation wants to transgress themselves from the local linguistic barriers and their chief aim is to get maximum benefit of the opportunities available in the market. They wish to improve their communication skills as the world has become global market due to the needs and changes in the broad field of economy, business, education and other thing. The idea of writing this paper is a result of a speculation made by my students of both undergraduate and post graduate level in university.

The inexperienced farmers facing problems in getting high crop yield. One of the challenges is to control crop diseases and pests. The farmers are not aware of the Climate change-induced agricultural diseases and pests. The image processing techniques have an important part in recognizing the diseases and pests infestations in the agricultural crop. The image must be free of noise for effective diagnosis. This paper analyses the performance of various noises and different de-noising techniques on an infected coconut image. In this paper, a suitable de-noising technique to remove various kinds of noise in an image. The performance of the filters is compared for different types of noises and the quality is measured based on PSNR and MSE. 10 30 2019 3675 3678 CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy www.ijitee.org true 10.35940/ijitee.L3811.1081219 https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/L38111081219/ Research Scholar, AKTU, Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, India Basu Dev Shivahare* S.K. Gupta Associate Professor, BIET, Jhansi ,Uttar Pradesh, India Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA) was proposed by Seyedali Mirjalili and Andrew Lewis in 2016. WOA is nature-inspired, meta-heuristic (randomization and deterministic) algorithm, which is being used to solve various single objective, multi objective and multi-dimensional optimization problems. To determine threshold value for image segmentation Otsu, kapur, thresholding etc. methods are used. In this paper multilevel threshold values are computed using WOA and these multilevel threshold values are used for image segmentation. Fitness is computed using Otsu thresholding. Minimum fitness score is considered as best optimal value. WOA has capability to explore, exploit the search s pace and avoid local optima. In multilevel thresholding, complex images are segmented into L+1 levels for multiple threshold values L =2, 3 etc. This paper addresses about performance of Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) for various benchmark objective functions such as unimodel, multimodel, fix dimension multimodel based on their convergence curves for different number of iterations400,500 600 and compute multilevel threshold values for various level image segmentation using Whale Optimization Algorithm. 10 30 2019 4602 4613 CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy www.ijitee.org true 10.35940/ijitee.L3843.1081219 https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/L38431081219/ Federal Research Center of Agrarian Economy and Social Development of Rural Areas, All-Russian Research Institute of Agricultural Economics, Moscow, Russia.

The growth of Indian Economy is a combination of contribution of different sectors. The banking industry is the back bone of Indian Economy and its growing role in the Global Economy. Since, nationalization banking industry has witnessed many ups and downs in its sustainability. Though the banking industry is regulated by the Reserve Bank of India and policies of the Government from time to time towards its sustainability it needs to bring reforms in the strict implementation of Banking Regulation Act. During last two decades, banking industry has been reeling under financial crisis, losses and debts due to liberal loan sanction policies and poor recovery rate. This was due to frauds and corrupt practices due to some or other reason. This leads to financial burden not only on the Government but also on the people of the country. The present research paper examines the reasons for financial frauds and necessary suggestions are being made to mitigate the frauds and to develop strong and efficient control mechanism. 10 30 2019 4578 4581 CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy www.ijitee.org true 10.35940/ijitee.L3958.1081219 https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/L39581081219/ Research Scholar and Assistant Professor, University School of Information Communication and Technology, Guru Gobind Singh Indrapratha University, N.Delhi, India.

Artificial neural networks of the feed – forward kind, are an established technique under the supervised learning paradigm for the solution of learning tasks. The mathematical result that allows one to assert the usefulness of this technique is that these networks can approximate any continuous function to the desired degree. The requirement imposed on these networks is to have non-linear functions of a specific kind at the hidden nodes of the network. In general, sigmoidal non-linearities, called activation functions, are generally used. In this paper we propose an asymmetric activation function. The networks using the proposed activation function are compared against those using the generally used logistic and the hyperbolic tangent activation function for the solution of 12 function approximation problems. The results obtained allow us to infer that the proposed activation function, in general, reaches deeper minima of the error measures and has better generalization error values. 10 30 2019 852 858 CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy www.ijitee.org true 10.35940/ijitee.L3310.1081219 https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/L33101081219/ Doctorate Program Environmental Science, Padang State University, West Sumatra Indonesia S.
