Abstract

 

Data Mining is the process of extracting interesting and previously unknown patterns and correlations from huge amounts of data. Association rule mining, a descriptive mining technique of data mining is the process of discovering items, which tend to occur together in transactions. As the data to be mined is large, the time taken for accessing data is considerable. In this paper, a new association rule mining algorithm which generates the frequent itemsets in a single pass over the database is presented. The algorithm mainly uses two approaches for association rule mining: The Partition approach, where the data is mined in partitions and merges the result, and the Apriori approach that helps to find the frequent sets within each partition. In order to evaluate the performance of new association algorithm, it is compared with the existing algorithms which require multiple passes to generate the frequent itemsets. Experiments show that time taken for the database scan is more than the time taken for candidate generation when the database size is large, which provides evidence that, focus to decrease the database access time is a viable approach to the association rule mining.

Abstract         

Identifying moving objects is a critical task for many computer vision applications; it provides a categorization of the pixels into either foreground or background. A common approach used to achieve such categorization is removing background. There are many background removal algorithms in the literature, most of them pass through four major steps, which are pre-processing, background modeling, foreground detection and data validation. An important constituent of vision systems is background modeling. Existing work in background modeling has mostly addressed scenes that consist of stationary structures. But if the scene exhibits constant dynamic behavior in time, such an hypothesis is dishonored and detection performance deteriorates. We propose a method for the modeling and subtraction of scenes exhibiting constant dynamic behavior in time.

Abstract

Ad hoc wireless networks provide infrastructure-free communication, an efficient MAC protocol through which mobile stations can share a common broadcast channel is essential. Present medium access mechanism used are Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance (CSMA/CA), multiple access with collision avoidance (MACA) and CSMA/CA with RTS/CTS. These protocols are designed to reduce the collision probability between multiple stations accessing a medium. CSMA/CA with RTS/CTS and MACA use RTS/CTS exchange mechanism to reserve the channel. In this paper, First theoretical model of WLAN is developed and the maximum possible throughput is calculated. In later part of the paper, for the verification of theoretical mode, simulation environment is developed and detailed simulation is performed using GloMoSim simulator. Finally theoretical and simulation result are compared, which shows the variation of throughput with the variation of packet arrival rate and variation of average end to end delay with throughput.

Abstract

A mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is a collection of  wireless  mobile  nodes  communicating  with  each  other  using  multihop  wireless  links  without  any  existing  network  infrastructure  or centralized  administration  .To  decide  Routing  protocols  for  ad-hoc networks is a great challenge. Network throughput delay and packet delivery  ratio  are  three  important  parameters  in  the  design  and evaluation  of  mobile  ad  hoc  networks.  In  recent  years,  a  variety  of routing   protocols   targeted   specifically   where   Pause   time   was constant.  In  this  work,  we  make  a  comparison  of  three  prominent protocols  AODV,  DSR  and  DSDV  for  mobile  ad  hoc  network  by varying pause time and simulating them on NS2 [1].Various types of scenarios  are  generated  and  each  of  the  protocol  is  simulated  on each of these, then their parameters like throughput, packet delivery ratio  and  delay will  be  compared  The  performance  differentials are analyzed  using  varying  pause  time,  constant  nodes  and  dynamic topology.  Based on the  observations,  we  make  valuable  conclusions about which protocol performs better in which condition.

Abstract

The interest on improving software paradigms, to meet the rapid changing environments becomes a recent and prime research area in Software Engineering. Agile software development was emerged as a result of these studies. Agile practice is a customer oriented, light-weight software development paradigm, suited best for small size development teams in projects under vague and changing requirements. Especially the Agile practice is famous among the open-source communities as it goes easily along with the communities’ conventions. Having more flexibility is a better attribute for a process, if it used by a competent experts who can take productive decisions at right moments. However, depending too much on expert knowledge to process and product adjustments is a questionable concern to a growing project with rapid changes to its code base and releases. This research was identified to prevail over this difficulty and provide a necessary guidance to formulate reasonable decisions in the Agile process practice.

Abstract

The goal of software inspection and software testing is to reduce the expected cost of software failure over the life of the software product. In the case of inspections, the defect trigger is defined as a set of values that associate the skills of the inspector with the discovered defect. Similarly, for test scenarios, the defect trigger values embody the deferring strategies being used in creating these scenarios. Software inspection is the generic name for a set of cost-effective ways of evaluating user interfaces to find usability problems. They are fairly informal methods and easy to use. This paper investigates whether we can replace inspection with testing or not.

Abstract

Text classification involves assignment of predetermined categories to textual resources. Applications of text classification include recommendation systems. Personalization, help desk automation, content filtering and routing, selective alerting, and training. This paper describes an experiment for improving the classification accuracy of a large text corpus by the use of dimensionality reduction and multiple-classifier combination techniques. Three different classifiers have been used namely Naive Bayes, Decision Tree and Association rule mining. The results of these classifiers are combined using techniques such as Simple Voting, Weighted Voting and Probability-based Voting. The classification accuracy is further improved by the use of a dimensionality reduction method called Latent semantic indexing (LSI). Experiments conducted on the Reuters 21578 dataset indicate that the combination approach provides an improved and scalable method for text classification. Also, it is observed that concept indexing helps with classification accuracy in addition lo efficiency and scalability.

Abstract

Size measurement methods have played a key role in helping to solve real-world problems of estimating, supplier/customer disputes, performance improvement and the management of outsourced contracts. We would like to say that estimating and managing a project’s effort, staffing, schedule, cost, risks, quality and other factors is crucial. Yet all these are measures of input. Process management is enabled by feedback loops. So it is also necessary to measure the output from the software process. This starts with measurement of the size of the requirements. To solve a problem, it is necessary to measure its size, in order to assess the various solution options, calculate the relative costs, compare the benefits, before finally committing to one preferred approach.

Abstract

During the process of development of any system, system reliability is of utmost importance .Specially when designing a processor, it is desired that a processor function correctly even in the presence of faults .This concept is commonly referred to as fault tolerance. The fault tolerant microprocessor systems used in safety critical applications need to be thoroughly validated during the design stages.  As feature size reduces in future, there is an increased probability of transient and intermittent faults. Now these systems on chip integrated circuits contain both digital and analog cores. Test cost for such mixed signal SOC is much higher than the digital SOC that allows the analog and digital cores to be tested. The analog cores are wrapped such that the test can performed using a digital test access mechanism .In our method , an analog test infrastructure is used which consists of test wrappers and test access mechanism. Test wrappers isolate various modules from their surrounding circuitry during test .So the focus is on optimisation of a unified test access architecture that is used for digital and analogue cores. We wrap each analog core by a pair of digital to analog converter and analog to digital converter .They convert analog core to virtual digital core which allow the use of digital testers to test the analog cores. This reduces the need for expensive mixed signal tester so that there is a reduction in the overall cost.

Abstract

Many steganography techniques are extremely vulnerable to attacks and even detection of information in image is quite easy. This paper proposes a new authentication, verification technique, which prevent from the steganographic attacks. The main idea is to use a prioritized sub blocks by pattern matching scheme to embed the code and a microcontroller used for sake of security where it transmits a pre-programmed key at the beginning of each process. The steganalysis algorithm continued only if the received key is correct at the destination otherwise retrieving secure information from cover image is not accomplished.

Abstract

This protocol is used to maintain security in networks for secure communication by overcoming some of the drawbacks in existing security protocols. Integration of both classical and quantum cryptography techniques takes place. Quantum cryptography is used for secure optical transmission which employs quantum mechanisms to distribute session keys Classical cryptography provides convenient techniques that enable efficient key verification and user authentication. This protocol used both implicit user authentication and explicit mutual authentication. A Trust centre is used to generate a secret key and public key by using RSA algorithm and it will develop the random key for each session of transmitting data  these key develop a QUIBIT values which develop Session key. By using these keys user translate the messages between the other users securely. Error rate gets reduced when compared to the existing quantum cryptography protocol. Bayesian filtering method is integrated to reduce the external noise.  The merits of this new protocol are (i) Secures against attacks as man-in-the-middle, eavesdropping and replay (ii) Online guessing attacks can be avoided (iii) Efficiency is more since the proposed protocol contain the fewest number of communication rounds (iv) Two parties can share and use a long-term secret key by a trusted center (v) Error due to noise gets reduced.

Abstract

The recognition of    handwritten numeral is an important area of research for its applications in post office, banks and other organizations. This paper presents automatic recognition of handwritten Kannada numerals using both unsupervised and supervised classifiers. Four different types of structural features, namely, direction frequency code, water reservoir, end points and average boundary length from the minimal bounding box are used in the recognition of numeral. The effect of each feature and their combination in the numeral classification is analyzed. Combining classifiers has proved to be an effective solution to several classification problems in pattern recognition. In the image classification, it is often beneficial to consider each feature type separately, and to integrate the initial classification results by a final classifier. In this paper, we developed a  robust hybrid approach where fuzzy k-Nearest Neighbor (fuzzy k-NN) and fuzzy c-means(FCM) as base classifiers for individual feature sets, the results of which together forms the feature vector for the final  k-Nearest Neighbor (k-NN) classifier.  Testing is done, using different feature sets, individually and in combination, on a database containing 1600 samples of different numerals and the results are compared with the different existing methods.

Abstract

A GIS tool has been proposed where the whole border of a closed section of a black and white map is digitized using a single click inside the section (instead of moving the mouse pointer along the border of the section). The boundary point of a segment contains similar RGB values (black, RGB value -16777216). When one inner point of a closed segment is selected by the mouse the program calculates the RGB value (which is not black) and stored in an array say inner array. Fetching elements from the inner array the program calculates the RGB values of the eight connected pixels. If the pixels are black then stored into another array say boundary array. Other points are stored into the inner array. The elements which are fetched must be removed from the inner array. The fetching and comparing RGB values of the eight connected pixels are performed until the inner array becomes vacant. When the inner array becomes empty the boundary array contains the boundary pixels. Thus boundary pixels are identified. The array elements of boundary array are arranged in a cyclic order to generate the proper boundary of the polygon object.

Abstract

The inventory management policies in a supply chain can be classified according to the criterion i.e. optimization goal, centralized or decentralized control, inventory control frequency, temporal information requirements and spatial information etc. In many industrial sectors, firms are dealing with a demand which is more and more uncertain often due to the supply chain structure. One of the most critical effects of demand uncertainty is the simultaneous increase of inventories and decrease of customer service. To properly model uncertainty several aspects need to be addressed: the causes of uncertainty, the characteristics of both the available (input) and required information (output), and the scale level of the numerical information. So this paper has addressed two key issues of inventory management in SCs, namely the uncertainty associated with market demand and inventory related costs and the need of a tight integration among the SC stages. In particular, a methodology has been proposed to define global inventory management policies that are both easy to be implemented and near optimal for the whole SC. The methodology addresses uncertainty through fuzzy set theory, which is more appropriate than stochastic techniques to deal with market demand and inventory related costs, especially when the environment (e.g. the market) is complex and turbulent. The need of integration is taken into account by the adoption of the echelon concept to measure inventory and the holding costs. The contribution of fuzzy set theory for dealing with uncertainty has been discussed under a theoretical perspective, pointing out its appropriateness to model market demand and inventory costs.

Abstract

The Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) suffers from poor performance on high bandwidth delay product links meant for supporting data transmission rates of multi Gigabits per seconds (Gbps). During congestion, the TCP’s congestion control algorithm reduces the congestion window cwnd to ½ and enters additive increase mode, which proves to be slow in taking advantage of large amounts of available bandwidth. In this paper a refined new model, to overcome the drawbacks of the TCP protocol, has been presented. We propose to carry out a study of the refined new model based on various parameters viz., Throughput, Fairness, Stability, Performance and Bandwidth Utilization for supporting high data transmission rates across the High Speed Networks.

Abstract

Birds have developed excellent capabilities of using vision and hearing senses. Their temporal resolution is 10 times better than us. This allows more information to be communicated in lesser time. Bird’s sounds can be divided into four categories: chip notes, calls, songs, and composite sounds. The vocal apparatus in birds consists of an oral cavity, larynx, trachea, syrinx, and lung system. The vocal tract above the larynx is very short and effectively terminates at lateral edges of an open beak. The bird larynx consists of muscular folds whose aperture can be regulated to prevent food particles from entering the respiratory system during ingestion. During vocalization the acoustic tube formed by vocal tract above and trachea below can be constricted at larynx by the action of laryngeal muscles. Trachea is terminated below by a special sound producing organ called as syrinx. It is clear that basic structure of sound production mechanism of birds is similar to that of human beings. As the human beings is composed of small units called phonemes, the bird’s calls can also be assumed to be made of small units. The objective of this paper is to investigate the number of phonemes present in the little owl’s calls. Scope of this research is limited to only the sounds of little owl because of their special nature to communicate during noiseless environment. This may modify their adaptation with respect to phonemes.

Abstract

Domain analysis is recommended by many in the reuse research as a main process for achieving successful reuse. Domain analysis is accomplished by reengineering techniques and domain analysis methods. Domain analysis is the process of identifying, collecting, organizing and representing the relevant information in a domain based upon the study of existing systems and their development histories, knowledge captured from domain experts and emerging technology within a domain. This paper discusses some generally used domain analysis methods. After studying many domain analysis methods some criteria has been found based on which we compared domain analysis methods. Paper discusses the domain analysis methods that share the same objectives: analyzing the domain and developing domain models. However each technique defines a particular way of understanding the domain and capturing domain information as domain models. In general the process, the product and supporting tools, can characterize a domain analysis method. At the end we summarized methods according to their use in various domains

Abstract – Cells are complex systems which are networked together, residing in biological systems. A number of metabolic reactivity that occurs within the cells, which in turns the cells response. Improper cells signaling are the main causes for disease and disorders in biological systems so, it is necessary to understand the systematic organization of cells and its activities. There is lack of formal guidelines and constructive opposition to cell research which helps researchers for further disease identification and in drug discovery. Since, scientists have not yet been able to fully map cells and its functionalities, which are very sensitive and under research this made systems biology researchers in cells to lack behind. In this perspective, understanding and representing the entire activities of the cells at system level involving, cells networking pathways and its signaling is a novel way that have been incorporated in this paper. Since today there is a necessity for development of high throughput tools for effective and efficient representation of system activities. CABS aims at representing cellular activities in biological systems in graphical manner for various species. Primarily, representing human biological system cellular reactivates for cancer has been made. Network connectivity of the cells by means of pathway and signaling are done mainly taking disease reactivity or symptoms into consideration in the body. Internally certain metabolic behaviors have also been consideration for representing cells connectivity and communications. Cellular activities including pathway construction and cells signaling in reactive to the environment to the immune system have also been represented. Utilization of this tool will help the researchers for carrying out further research in this area of system biology.

Abstract         

This paper describes a fault-tolerant routing mechanism to facilitate data routing in Torus embedded hypercube interconnection network subject to node failures in parallel computing. It is shown that by only using feasible paths routing can be substantially simplified. Though there are algorithms for fault tolerant communication in torus and hypercube networks, there exits no efficient algorithm for the embedded architecture. We present an algorithm to provide an efficient fault tolerant routing mechanism for a (2, 2, 8)-Torus embedded hypercube interconnection network.

Abstract

Uncompressed multimedia (images, audio, video) data requires considerable storage capacity and transmission bandwidth despite rapid progress in mass storage density, processor speeds and digital communication system performance. The only solution is to compress multimedia data before its storage and transmission and decompress it at the receiver. This paper presents an efficient approach for image Compression using modified transform vector quantization for codebook generation. In this paper, a new codebook design algorithm is proposed for image coding. The method utilizes mean-squared error  based selection schemes for good clustering of data vectors in the training space. As the clustering process terminates only in two steps, it is highly computationally efficient as compared to other reported methods. Simulation results are presented to show the superior performance of the proposed method in terms of peak signal-to-noise ratio as compared to the standard Linde-Buzo-Gray algorithm for codebook design.

Abstract         

This paper proposes one scheme for selecting neighborhood and fuzzy based distributed movement algorithm for maintaining neighborhood topology during movement of the network. All the nodes are enabled with GPS. All the nodes will periodically broadcast their position and velocity information obtained through the GPS. After receiving the information from the other nodes, a node will first decides its neighboring nodes. Once neighborhood selection is done, the whole network will start their movement. During movement, each and every node is responsible to maintain its initial neighborhood intact. The key concept in this algorithm is that in each and every beacon interval node will decides its movement, so that it can maintain connectivity with its maximum distant neighbor. And this decision is fuzzy logic based. We have simulated the algorithm in a number of synthetically designed situations and the results we have obtained have been quite encouraging.

Abstract

The availability of blood is one of the important requirements in treating medical emergencies. The blood banks do not maintain buffer stocks as required during that time. Thus the buffer stock is crucial for disaster management. This application helps people to get the right information about the availability of blood in the current location for the sake of transfusion at their need of the hour without running from pillar to post in getting the required blood during emergency. In this paper we propose a system to find the nearest blood bank with stock details and the display of donor/s in that locality during emergency with an integration of Geographic Information System (GIS) to online requisition of voluntary donors, receptors, data base of blood banks, stocks of blood, blood transfusion and related issue management to address the global blood related problems in coming future.

Abstract

Radio frequency identification (RFID) systems have emerged as an efficient and cost effective solution for tracking objects containing passive RFID tags. The choice of passive RFID tag is due to its low cost and simplicity of implementation. The problem is to identify objects containing passive RFID tags. If there are multiple objects in the range of a tag reader, they all send their ID to the reader simultaneously in response to the readers query. This leads to collision at the reader end and no tag is identified leading to the wastage of bandwidth and increase in total delay in identifying all objects. This paper presents some popular and efficient collision resolution protocols and one variation of that for the tag identification problem where a tag reader attempts to obtain the unique identity of the tags in its read range within finite time and significant delay. This paper also concentrates on different performance parameters regarding the singulation process and analyzes the performance of different anti collision algorithms on the basis of different performance parameters like total number of messages sent between tags and readers during the singulation process and the total amount of time for singulation.

Abstract


Component-based software engineering (CBSE) represents an exciting and promising paradigm for software development. Software components are one of the key issues in CBSE. The software development community is continuously seeking new methods for improving software quality and enhancing development productivity. There is an increasing need for component-based metrics to help manage and foster quality in component-based software development. The traditional software product and process metrics are neither suitable nor sufficient in measuring the complexity of software components, which ultimately is necessary for quality and productivity improvement within organizations adopting CBSE. In the software development process, scheduling and predictabili­ty are important components to delivering a product on time and within budget. Effort estimation artifacts offer a rich data set for improving scheduling accuracy and understanding the develop­ment process. In this paper, we survey few existing component-based reusability metrics. These metrics give a border view of component’s understandability, adaptability, and portability. This paper is split into four sections. First section of this paper emphasizes on need of effort estimation in component based software engineering. Second section of this paper elaborates  concept of  deriving a  metrics using this concept of COCOMO Model. Third section emphasize on how to calculate adjustment factor for the software might be partly developed from software already existing. Fourth section elaborates conclusion and future work. Paper proposes metrics to evaluate effort and development time by conventional and component based software engineering approach and shows the result comparison.

Abstract

With the advancements in computers and wireless communication technologies, mobile ad hoc networks (MANET) is expected to see increasingly widespread use and application. A MANET is an autonomous collection of mobile users that communicate over wireless links. Proactive protocols in MANETS like DSDV, OLSR, TBRPF are table driven and actively determine the layout of the network. A complete image of the network is maintained at every single node by a regular exchange of network topology packets between the nodes of the network. In this paper, we simulate and analyse the Destination-Sequenced Distance-Vector (DSDV) protocol for various parameters like throughput, average end-to-end delay by varying the number of nodes in MANET. The results indicate that the throughput decrease as the numbers of node increase.

Abstract

This paper takes digital mammograph for scrutiny with the angle of finding the microcalcification in the mammographic images through the help of artificial neural networks (ANN) and wavelet-based sub band image decomposition. When the mammographs are digitized the micro calcification present in it will be in the form of high frequency component of the image matrix. In order to detect it we filter the image using Hessian filter and apply DWT and finding the Skewness and Kurtosis of the resulting image, before applying the BPN algorithm for diagnosing the cancer. The neural network contains one input, two hidden and one output layers. The described method has been tested on many mammographic images taken from the Digital Database for Screening Mammography (DDSM).

Abstract

As object oriented analysis and design techniques become widely used, the demand on assessing the quality of object-oriented designs substantially increases. Recently, there has been much research effort to develop and empirically validate metrics for OO design quality. Complexity, Coupling and Cohesion have received a considerable interest in the field. Despite the rich body of research and practice in developing design quality metrics, there has been less emphasis on dynamic metrics for object-oriented designs. The complex dynamic behavior of many real-time applications motivates a shift in interest from traditional static metric to dynamic metrics. In this research, Improved Dynamic cohesion metric is proposed. Existing cohesion measures only consider the pattern of interactions but do not differentiate write interaction from read interaction. Thus, do not reflect properties of class. This research measures improved version of cohesion measures considering read and write interaction as well as dynamic environment. This cohesion measures will be evaluated against some open source code of Java and to prove that write interaction are so commonly used in classes that they have much influence on cohesion measures and also  cohesion measured dynamically is  better than measured statically.

Abstract

Grid computing system is the one where individual entities share their resources with others in their own domain as well as with other domain. The resources should be shared with out loosing individual’s confidentiality and control over their resources. To achieve this and ensure grid security various models have been proposed and one of them is the trust model.  Reputation based trust models are coming up to address the problems in behavior conformity. The reputation values in these models are evaluated in a democratic manner based upon the feedback from other entities. This paper investigates such reputation based trust models in the presence of  malicious entities which give deliberately wrong feedbacks. We propose an enhancement by which the malicious feed backs are eliminated by rank correlation method. Thus the work enhances the behavioral conformity in the presence of malicious entities.

Abstract

Antibodies are a group of glycoproteins present in the serum as a part of our defence system. Specific antibodies are formed when an animal is immunized with an antigen. Antibodies can be produced experimentally by injecting any compound that contains at least one antigenic determinant and are termed as Primary Antibodies. Secondary antibody is an antibody which binds at Fc fragment of the primary antibody.  The present work aims at purifying immunoglobulins from Rabbit serum and then using these as immunogens in Goats to develop Goat Anti-Mouse antibodies. These can be labelled as a probe that makes them useful for the detection, purification or cell sorting application. This being a highly specific reaction, antibodies has become an invaluable tool in the immunological research and clinical immunodiagnostics. Isolation of Goat Anti-Rabbit Antibodies has been successfully completed. Work is being done on production of Horse Radish Peroxidase enzyme. Further, conjugation of isolated Goat Anti-Rabbit Antibodies with Horse Radish Peroxidase is proposed to be done, so that these labeled antibodies can be used in indirect ELISA, indirect sandwich ELISA, indirect competitive ELISA,  Immunostaining, and Immunocytometry.

Abstract

In this paper reworked rectangle-packing algorithm suggested by Cheok-AYC Nee is used to generate different 120 feasible patterns. Simulated tests were conducted for classification of items and sheets into three different categories (and so are objects) as regular when length/ width ratio is uniformly distributed (1.25±0.25), standard (length/ width ratio is uniformly distributed (3±0.3) and tapered (length/ width ratio is uniformly distributed (6±1). Different nature of items was placed on different nature of sheets. Heuristics which gives maximum utilization/minimum trim loss is selected and find out direct relation with the sequencing patterns i.e., area, perimeter, length, width and length/width ratio and the nature of items/ object. Recommendation developed for the best heuristic under different condition. It is observed that as the L/B ratio of sheet increases, the average utilization factor of sheet will decrease.

Let G = (V,E) be a simple graph with v vertices and e edges. An edge-magic total labeling is a bijection f: VÈE ® { 1,2,…v+e} with the property that for each edge xy, f(x) + f(y) + f(xy) = k, a constant called the magic sum or magic constant of the graph G. The graph G which admits any edge magic total labeling is called edge magic total . A generalized Petersen graph P(n,m), n ≥ 3, 1 ≤ m <   is a 3-regular graph with 2n vertices u1, u2,…un, v1, v2,…vn and edges (ui,vi), (ui,ui+1), (vi,vi+m) for all i Î {1,2,…n}, where the subscripts are taken modulo n. P(5,2) is the standard Petersen graph. In this paper we study the edge magicness of N copies of generalized Petersen graphs where N is a finite positive integer.

Abstract

Lateral Transhipment is very an effective means of reducing total cost of the system, as well as improving the service level. The objective of this paper is, to explore the implication of pooling on multi-retailer supply chain inventory system, with one central ware house, with varying demand and varying lead time at each retail outlet. The product is either sold out or remains as a surplus. This surplus is transshipped to the other retailer having shortage. This way, both the holding costs and shortage costs of the total system are reduced and improvement in the service level. This work demonstrates the benefits of lateral transshipment in terms of reduced total system cost and improves in customer service level or overcoming the uncertainty of demand and lead-time.

Keywords: Supply chain management; Inventory management; Lateral transshipment.

Abstract
Web Mapping is the process of designing, implementing, generating and delivering maps on the World Wide Web. A common challenge for many web developers is the creation of web applications that capture and describe geographical information. As a result of Web 2.0 technologies such as Asynchronous JavaScript and XML (Ajax) web-based mapping applications with rich contents can be developed with better interactivity, functionality, accuracy and usability. These applications (for example Academic Universities Web Mapping) provide users with maps to search and browse geographic information. The integration of information on maps as a layer is known as Mashups. The Value of a mashup lies in better user interface for that data or in combining data from a number of sources in an interesting way. In this paper we want to propose Web mapping strategies for Academic Universities, using robust Secure Google Maps API version 2, and Microsoft Virtual Earth API with a comparative study of API’s involving tests on browser compatibility, performance, accuracy, functionality, usability, geocoding and development support etc. We explain how web-mapping works, Google Maps API motivation for such academic application, with our Microsoft Virtual Earth implementation of our Web mapping application of MGIT. We conclude with Map Abstraction Layer which improves interoperability of API’s integrating development methodology. Finally issues pertaining to securing Google Maps API will be discussed.

Keywords – Web mapping, Web GIS (Geographic Information System), Google Maps API version 2, Microsoft Virtual Earth, Map Abstraction Layer, Web 2.0 Mashups.
