CRYPTOGRAPHY AND NETWORK SECURITY


ABSTRACT:


Network security is the effort to create a secure computing platform, designed so that agents (user/programs) cannot perform action that they are not allowed to perform. But can perform the action that they are not allowed to. The action in question can be reduced to operations of access, modification and deletion. A network has been defined as “any set of interlinking lines resembling a net”. Network can be seen as a subfield of engineering which looks at broader security an issue in addition to network security. This network security also deals with the problems of legitimate messages being captured and replayed. And with the people trying to deny that they sent certain messages. Network security is a complicated subject, historically only tackled by well-trained and experienced experts. However, as more and more people become “wired”, an increasing number of people need to understand the basics of security in a network world.


Cryptography has a long and colorful history. Historically, four groups of people have used and contributed to the art if cryptography: military, the diplomatic corps, diarists and lovers. Of these the military has had the most important role and has shaped the field. Suppose that someone wants to send a message to a receiver, and wants to be sure that no one else can read the message. However, there is the possibility that someone else opens the letter and hearts the electronic communication. The cryptography process explaining through a generalized function is discussed through which encryption and decryption is done by the various algorithms like RSA algorithms, Hash functions and many cryptographic algorithms.

MICROCONTROLLER BASED AUTOMATIC RAILWAY GATE CONTROL


The objective of this paper is to provide an automatic railway gate at a level crossing replacing the gates operated by the gatekeeper. It deals with two things. Firstly, it deals with the reduction of time for which the gate is being kept closed. And secondly, to provide safety to the road users by reducing the accidents. By the presently existing system once the train leaves the station, the stationmaster informs the gatekeeper about the arrival of the train through the telephone. Once the gatekeeper receives the information, he closes the gate depending on the timing at which the train arrives. Hence, if the train is late due to certain reasons, then gate remain closed for a long time causing traffic near the gates.

                 By employing the automatic railway gate control at the level crossing the arrival of the train is detected by the sensor placed near to the gate. Hence, the time for which it is closed is less compared to the manually operated gates and also reduces the human labor. This type of gates can be employed in an unmanned level crossing where the chances of accidents are higher and reliable operation is required. Since, the operation is automatic, error due to manual operation is prevented .Automatic railway gate control is highly economical micro controller based arrangement, designed for use in almost all the unmanned level crossings in the country

Solar Energy-The Renewable Energy for the Future



The oil shocks of 1970s led to spiraling crude oil prices in the world market which prompted planners to view energy security as an issue of national strategic importance. Energy security has an important bearing on achieving national economic development goals and improving the quality of life of the people. World’s dependence on crude oil will continue for most part of the 21st century but the continued dependence on crude oil is loaded against it with inherent price volatility linked to finite global reserves. In addition, global warming, caused largely by greenhouse gas emissions from fossil fuel energy generating systems, is also a major concern. So, there is a need to develop alternate fuels like non-conventional sources, considering the aforesaid two concerns.
This paper describes about the solar energy, one of the non-conventional sources and different ways of using it to convert to electric energy.
