  • Land Use Pattern As an Indicator of Sustainability: a Case Study
    Proceedings of the International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Operations Management Dubai, UAE, March 10-12, 2020 Land Use Pattern as an Indicator of Sustainability: A Case Study Geena Prasad Department of Mechanical Engineering, Amrita School of Engineering, Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham, Amritapuri, India. [email protected] Rajesh R. Department of Mechanical Engineering, Amrita School of Engineering, Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham, Amritapuri, India. [email protected] Arun K. Department of Commerce and Management, Amrita School of Arts and Sciences, Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham, Amritapuri, India. [email protected] Abstract Estimating changes of coastal land using Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and Remote Sensing, over a period can provide insights into sustainable use of natural resources, especially land. In this study, images captured from Landsat Multispectral-scanner (MSS), Landsat 5 and Landsat 7 of Alappad, a coastal town in Kerala in 1990, 2001, 2005 and 2009 are used to elucidate spatial distribution of land and land use pattern over a period of two decades. During 1990 - 2009, remarkable decline of vegetation and sand from coastal areas is seen. Understanding land use patterns over a period is essential for decision makers to implement sustainable land use measures and policies. Keywords Land use, Land cover, Coastal land, Geographic Information Systems and Sustainability 1. Introduction Land use is an umbrella term that used to denote the activities undertaken by mankind in order to maintain or produce a means of sustenance using land cover (FAO, 1997a; FAO/UNEP, 1999). Human intervention and anthropogenic activities can result in unanticipated environmental consequences, including depletion of natural resources. Biophysical, economic, technological or institutional need are the precursors for land use changes in any given area.

  • Regional Contest Cookbook
    Regional Contest Cookbook About ACM ICPC Mission: ACM International Collegiate Programming Contest (ICPC) provides college students with opportunities to interact with students from other universities and to sharpen and demonstrate their problem-solving, programming, and teamwork skills. The contest provides a platform for ACM, industry, and academia to encourage and focus public attention on the next generation of computing professionals as they pursue excellence. About the Contest The ACM International Collegiate Programming Contest (ICPC) traces its roots to a competition held at Texas A&M in 1970 hosted by the Alpha Chapter of the UPE Computer Science Honor Society. The idea quickly gained popularity within the United States and Canada as an innovative initiative to challenge the top students in the emerging field of computer science. The contest evolved into a multi-tier competition with the first Finals held at the ACM Computer Science Conference in 1977. Operating under the auspices of ACM and headquartered at Baylor University since 1989, the contest has expanded into a global network of universities hosting regional competitions that advance teams to the ACM-ICPC World Finals. Since IBM became sponsor in 1997, the contest has increased by a factor of eight. Participation has grown to involve several tens of thousands of the finest students and faculty in computing disciplines at 1,821 universities from 83 countries on six continents. The contest fosters creativity, teamwork, and innovation in building new software programs, and enables students to test their ability to perform under pressure. Quite simply, it is the oldest, largest, and most prestigious programming contest in the world.
