Abstract:

<em>Ornaments are metal-made jewels that women wear on their various limbs for beauty. In ancient times, ornaments were made by piercing naturally available seeds and tying them with thin ropes. Later, as civilization developed, various materials were used to make ornaments. Materials like gold, pearls, and coral gained importance in the production of ornaments. Women mostly wear these luxurious accessories for beauty. However, social values and various types of beliefs also form the reasons for wearing ornaments in many cultures. Ornaments have a prominent place in Tamil culture and aesthetic

Abstract:

In 1347, a disease of unprecedented mortality reached Italian ports: the Bubonic Plague. In a few years, it spread across the European continent, killing millions of people and leaving a trail of destruction. Amid the urgency of this scenario, in the early years of the epidemic, tractates were created on the pestilence written by doctors and professors from the main centres of medicine on the continent, such as Paris and Bologna; and, in a second moment, from smaller faculties and centres, in increasingly distant parts, creating a map of knowledge. The tractates aimed to explain the aetiology

Several studies have shown that there is a negative impact of perceived risk on trust and on the online purchasing behaviour of buyers. Other research suggests a positive impact. However, these relationships have been suggested by using evidence obtained from the purchase of inexpensive, uncomplicated, and hence low risk products such as books, compact disks (CDs, DVDs), or clothing. Exploring whether such associations could be generalised within the complex, costly high risk and credence products such as gemstones has not been examined.

Abstract:

The information retrieval (IR) field has been successful in developing techniques to address many types of information needs. However, there are cases in which traditional approaches to IR are not able to produce adequate results. Examples include: when a small set of (2-3) documents is needed as an answer rather than a single document, or when "query splitting" is required to satisfactorily explore the document space. We explore an alternative model of building and presenting retrieval results for such cases. In particular, we research effective methods for handling information needs that may
