Bruce Lee, the legendary martial artist listed as one of the 100 influential men of 20th century , who was also an actor, philosopher, director and screenwriter gained popular recognition both for his style of unarmed combat as an exponent of Chinese martial arts as well as an actor for his acting skills, grimaces and fighting styles through his films both in Hollywood and Asian films. He was the one who contributed to the surging interest of martial arts and never- seen- before armless action scenes among the audience. But besides popularising martial arts in films , he through his action films , threw a challenge to the long-running racist stereotyped presentation of asians to the audience of the West including that of Hollywood. This paper will try to explore in brief the history of asian(esp. Chinese) stereotyping in films and how Bruce Lee's advent in films broke this barrier of typecasting .

Solar Rooftop PV systems are becoming more popular these days as it is proven to lower electricity bills and potential contributory to lessen CO2 emissions. Three models of 1.215 kWp solar rooftop PV systems, namely: on-grid, off-grid and hybrid were designed and installed at Room EB217 of the College of Engineering building, Tarlac State University, Romulo Boulevard San Vicente, Tarlac City in order to determine their individual characteristics in terms of (1) design analysis and wiring diagram; (2) solar PV System components and total cost of installations; (3) amount of savings incurred in the solar generation and (4) rate of return and recovery period. The result showed that for the same amount of solar panel capacity, the on-grid model has the simplest design and wiring diagram as compared to the off-grid and hybrid models. Also, the on-grid model has the least number of components and no battery and thereby it is the most economical model to install since it is 58% cheaper than the two other models. In terms of actual amount of savings incurred in the solar generation, the hybrid model offers the highest savings of P2,798.40 per month, followed by the on-grid model at P2,126.40 per month while the off-grid model had the lowest monthly savings of P1,017.60 per month. Among the three models, the on-grid offers the highest ROR on investment at 2.72% per month and the shortest period of recovery of 3 years. The hybrid had an ROR of 2.08% per month and a recovery period of 4 years while the off grid had the lowest ROR of 0.75% per month and the longest recovery period of 11 years. It is concluded that the on-grid model offers the most feasible and viable alternative in solar rooftop PV system design and installations.

 Abstract

Branding was initially developed to distinguish between similar products. It is now possible to purchase clothing items (products) based on the psychological requirements they represent rather than only their physical attributes and need-satisfying qualities. The expansion of the branded apparel sector in India is partly attributable to the increasing brand recognition that has existed since the 1980s and the ease that ready-to-wear clothing provides (Indian Retail Report, 2020). Young customers are crucial to the market because they have a significant impact on how spending power is distributed among an increasing number of product categories, including clothing (Margret Hogg, 1998). In light of the fact that they are the ones that open up new opportunities for fashion firms, young consumers are therefore crucial for marketers and researchers. This study attempts to comprehend from the past reviews the variables and motivations behind buying branded clothing. It also examines numerous brand-related factors that have an impact on the purchasing choices of the millennials (Gen Y). The study will provide suggestions for improving the National Textile Policy 2000's marketing and promotional strategies for the textile industry, and specifically ready-made apparel, to the government and decision-makers. The study will provide useful insights and recommendations to enable CMAI, the Clothing Manufacturers Association of India, to make better and informed decisions when developing their marketing and communication strategies to appeal to millennials, and thereby aid in growth of this industry in economy based on the review of literature been conducted.

 Abstract

Data stream clustering algorithms have become essential tools for analysing high-volume data streams in real-time. One of the main challenges in data stream clustering is achieving high accuracy and efficiency in handling large and high-dimensional data streams. In this survey paper, we review the efficiency metrics used to evaluate data stream clustering algorithms, including processing time, memory usage, scalability, and accuracy. We also discuss the recently used data stream clustering algorithms, such as onlineK-Means, CluStream,DenStream ,DGCI, D STREAM , BIRCH and STREAM and their efficiency in handling data streams. Furthermore, we highlight the need for developing new algorithms that can handle dynamic and evolving data streams with high efficiency and accuracy. This paper aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the efficiency of data stream clustering algorithms and their potential applications in various domains. Data Stream clustering algorithms are continuously evolving to handle the challenges posed by dynamically changing data distributions. In this literature review, we explore the latest advancements in datastream clustering algorithms and present a comprehensive overview of a state-of-the-art approach. Additionally, we provide pseudocode to aid in understanding the algorithm's implementation.
