AUGMENTED REALITY DNA STORAGE AND COMPUTING Aditya Sable (SE Computer) Aditya Joshi (SE Computer) .
Introduction: According to different calculations a DNA computer with 6 grams of DNA can store 3072 Exabyte of data. The data transfer rate is DNA Computing is a branch of computer which deals with very high due to massive parallelism in calculations. Therefore, about implementing DNA instead of normal Silicon based computing 1000 peta ops can be reached while today's supercomputers can systems. The main point of this research is to implement Data reach only upto 100 peta ops. Organisation and processing using DNA. The organisation and complexity of Human System is based on four main Nitrogen based For a single process DNA computing is slower than silicon molecules in DNA. They are Adenine(A),Guanine(G),Thymine(T) and architecture but due to high amount of parallel processing the time Cytosine(G). The arrangement of these four determine the DNA's taken to solve very large and complex problems is very less in instructions and genetic code. The idea of using DNA as a method of comparison to normal silicon architecture. This is achieved by computing was rst put forward by Leonard Adleman in university of millions and billions of molecules reacting with each other Southern California, in 1994. Adleman demonstrated a proof of simultaneously. However it's quite difficult to analyse the output concept use of DNA as a form of computing which solves the seven- given by DNA computer as compared to a normal one. point Hamiltonian path problem. Approaches to create DNA computers: This article aims to bring light upon the approach of using DNA in computing and storage purpose and its applications and uses There are multiple methods for creating DNA architecture Reality means everything that exists. So, what is augmented? The Entertainment and Educational in future. based computers each having its own advantages and root of the word augmented is augment, which means to add or disadvantages. The main task is of making logic gates and logical elements from DNA elements. Some of these are made from DNA enhance something.

GRAPHICS DESIGN TRENDS IN 2018 Building a Website with Drupal Prathamesh Bhosale (BE Computer) Prof. Mayuri Jain Introduction Trends come and go, even though we can't clue in exactly when, it's for sure that they don't start up one year and fade out the next, instead they Drupal is a popular content management system (CMS) used to run some of the largest blogs and websites across the internet. Due to the shift until they evolve or the new one replaces them. stability of the base, the adaptability of the platform, and its active community, Drupal remains a popular choice.
Designers have been hunting through a number of websites like Dribbble, Behance for design styles that are trending this year and will be We will be using Apache to serve our site, since this is the con guration recommended by the Drupal team. prominent throughout the year in design space. Prerequisites Here we'll take a look at 10 Design Trends that will take over the graphic designing space in 2018. Before you get started with this article, you will need an Ubuntu 14.04 server with some basic con guration completed.
You will need to have Apache, PHP, and MySQL con gured on your server. You can learn how to set this up by following the steps on get LAMP installed on Ubuntu 14.04. (https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-linux-apache-mysql-php-lamp-stack-on- ubuntu-14-04)
Once you have ful lled the above requirements, we need to con gure and install DRUPAL on our machines.
You can con gure and setup Drupal on your system by following the guide on How To Install Drupal on an Ubuntu 14.04 Server with Apache. (https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-drupal-on-an-ubuntu-14-04-server-with-apache)
Now that the Drupal installation is completed(assumed!!), we will talk about building an actual Drupal website. You will learn just about the initial stages of creating some webpages, so grab on to your system and get ready to create some webpages using Drupal.
