Objectives: This paper presents an up-to-date overview of research performed in the Virtual Reality (VR) environment ranging from definitions, its presence in the various fields, and existing market players and their projects in the VR technology. Further an attempt is made to gain an insight on the psychological mechanism underlying experience in using VR device. Methods: Our literature survey is based on the research articles, analysis of the projects of various companies and their findings for different areas of interest. Findings: In our literature survey we observed that the recent advances in virtual reality enabling technologies have led to variety of virtual devices that facilitate people to interact with the digital world. In fact in the past two decades researchers have tried to integrate reality and VR in the form of intuitive computer interface. Improvements: This has led to variety of potential benefits of VR in many applications such as News, Healthcare, Entertainment, Tourism, Military and Defence etc. However despite the extensive research efforts in creating virtual system environments it is yet to become apparent in normal daily life., Comment: 22 page and 1 Table

In today's world of computers, any kind of information can be made available within few clicks for different endeavors. The information may be tampered by changing the statistical properties and can be further used for criminal activities. These days, Cyber crimes are happening at a very large scale, and possess big threats to the security of an individual, firm, industry and even to developed countries. To combat such crimes, law enforcement agencies and investment institutions are incorporating supportive examination policies, procedures and protocols to address the complete investigation process. The paper entails a detailed review of several cyber crimes followed by various digital forensics processes involved in the cyber crime investigation. Further various digital forensics tools with detail explanation are discussed with their advantages, disadvantages, challenges, and drawbacks. A comparison among all the selected tools is also presented. Finally the paper recommends the need of training programs for the first res ponder and judgement of signature based image authentication., Comment: 19 pages and 1 table

Natural language processing (NLP) has recently gained much attention for representing and analysing human language computationally. It has spread its applications in various fields such as machine translation, email spam detection, information extraction, summarization, medical, and question answering etc. The paper distinguishes four phases by discussing different levels of NLP and components of Natural Language Generation (NLG) followed by presenting the history and evolution of NLP, state of the art presenting the various applications of NLP and current trends and challenges., Comment: 25 pages

Objectives: This paper presents a brief review on Aadhaar card, and discusses the scope and advantages of linking Aadhaar card to various systems. Further we present various cases in which Aadhaar card may pose security threats. The observations of Supreme Court of India are also presented in this paper followed by a discussion on the loopholes in the existing system. Methods: We conducted literature survey based on the various research articles, leading newspapers, case studies and the observations of Supreme Court of India, and categorized the various cases into three categories. Findings: Aadhaar project is one of the significant projects in India to bring the universal trend of digital innovation. The launch of this project was focused on the inter-operability of various e-governance functionalities to ensure the optimal utilization of Information, Communication and Technology Infrastructure. Towards this Government of India has recently made Aadhaar card mandatory for many government applications, and also has promoted Aadhaar enabled transactions. Improvements: There are many issues related to security and privacy of the Aadhaar data need to be addressed. This paper highlights such cases., Comment: 20 Pages

In this paper, we develop double acceptance sampling plan and group acceptance sampling plan for an inverse Weibull distribution based on a truncated life test. We consider the median lifetime of the test units as a quality parameter and obtain the design parameters such as sample size and acceptance number. These plans are obtained under the consumer's risk and the producer's risk simultaneously involved at a certain confidence level. We present a simulation study to support the proposed methods and a comparison between single and double acceptance sampling plans is made. A real data set is also analyzed to illustrate the implementation of the proposed sampling plans. Further, the situation under which the proposed samplings plans can also be used for other percentiles points is discussed. Finally a conclusion is presented., Comment: 14 pages, 8 tables, 1 real data set
