: The present study is sought to analyse the current position of animals and their rights, the laws in India and also the rights which are enjoyed by the animals in America and England. This present study also specifies the various types of cruelty that are covered by the law and the animals which are exempted to be protected by the law. It is also investigated the other ways which causes pain and suffering but are not included in the criteria of animal cruelty. This study also specifies the competent and appropriate authority responsible for the protection of animal right.Today's copyright law not only protects the copyright owner's and neighbouring rights, but also addresses the issue of public interest, attempting to create a balance between the two in the digital age. Thus, copyright law has progressed from its early days, when it primarily protected literary and aesthetic works, to a modern world full of technical advancements. Creators of literary, dramatic, musical, and aesthetic works, as well as makers of cinematograph films and sound recordings, have a legal claim to copyright. It is defined as "the legal right granted to an author, composer, etc. (or his assignee) to print, publish, and sell copies of his original work for a set number of years.

Hydrogen can be produced sustainably by dark, anaerobic bacterial growth on carbohydrate-rich substrates. This chapter discuses microbiology, biochemistry, molecular biology, and the various other aspects related to dark hydrogen production. Pure cultures, known to produce hydrogen from carbohydrates, include species of Enterobacter and Clostridium. However, for efficient degradation of complex substrates, mixed cultures easily obtainable from natural sources and able to proliferate on nonsterile feedstock are required. Compared to pure substrates, complex substrates, especially different kinds of waste, may offer a sustainable and economical alternative for hydrogen production. However, for maximization of hydrogen production, different physicochemical processes need to be determined. In this regard, the various parameters affecting the dark hydrogen production process, which include pH, temperature, hydraulic retention time, and hydrogen partial pressure, have been discussed in detail. In addition, this chapter discusses the different types of reactors and their suitability to carry out studies on dark fermentative hydrogen production. Overall, the chapter presents a holistic understanding of the dark hydrogen production process and highlights the recent new findings and achievements in the field.
The North Atlantic financial crisis of 2008-2009 has spurred renewed interest in reforming the international monetary system, which has been malfunctioning in many aspects. Large and volatile capital flows have promoted greater volatility in financial markets, leading to recurrent financial crises. The renewed focus on the broader role of the central banks, away from narrow price stability monetary policy frameworks, is necessary to ensure domestic macroeconomic and financial stability. Since international monetary cooperation might be difficult, though desirable, central banks in major advanced economies, going forward, need to internalize the implications of their monetary policies for the rest of the global economy to reduce the incidence of financial crises.

This book describes systematic design techniques for chaotic and hyperchaotic systems, the transition from one to the other, and their implementation in electronic circuits. It also discusses the collective phenomena manifested by these systems when connected by a physical coupling scheme. Readers will be introduced to collective behaviours, such as synchronization and oscillation suppression, and will learn how to implement nonlinear differential equations in electronic circuits. Further, the book shows how the choice of nonlinearity can lead to chaos and hyperchaos, even in a first-order time-delayed system. The occurrence of these phenomena, together with the efficiency of the design techniques described, is presented with theoretical studies, numerical characterization and experimental demonstrations with the corresponding electronic circuits, helping readers grasp the design aspects of dynamical systems as a whole in electronic circuits. The authors then discuss the usefulness of an active all-pass filter as the delay element, supported by their own experimental observations, as well as theoretical and numerical results. Including detailed analysis, as well as computations with suitable dedicated software packages, the book will be of interest to all academics and researchers who wish to expand their knowledge of the subtlety of nonlinear time-delayed systems. It also offers a valuable source of information for engineers, linking the design techniques of chaotic time-delayed systems with their collective phenomena.
This book will focus on utilizing statistical modelling of the software source code, in order to resolve issues associated with the software development processes.
