Images, which are another characteristic of Nai Kahani, provide accurate and crystalline meaning to Nai Kahani. Instead of the conversation style, consciousness flow style and preview style of the old story, the new story follows diary style and fantasy style.

In this paper, I review the role of OSI-Model. This paper examines the problem of cybersecurity threats that are implemented on networks . OSI-Model is a 7 layer architecture with each layer having specific functionality to perform. All these 7 layers work collaboratively to transmit the data from one person to another all around the world. networks as being structured in the seven layers of the ISO-OSI model, it makes sense that cybersecurity threats can happen at any layer. We can think of these layers as the "links" in our metaphorical chain. Moving outward from the user, data is entered into the network through software running on the Application layer. Through the Session, Transport, Network, and Data-Link layers and arriving at the other end, the Physical layer, the data travels back up the seven layers to arrive at its intended destination. Each layer has its own protocols and other communication standards that govern its efficient operation. Each instance of osi Model provides services that use an instance directly. To provide the service itself uses an instance of the next lower instance.

The online education system is new normal for the students as well as teachers. COVID-19 has impacted all the sectors; the education sector is no exception to it. Due to pandemics schools and colleges shifted to online platforms. The study focused on the satisfaction level of undergraduate students during the pandemic. The study states that students preferred offline mode over online because virtual learning fails to enhance their skills such as communications skills, interpersonal skills, the ability of critical thinking etc. The study also analysed that students' mental health was affected because of online lecture schedules and their concentration power was adversely impacted. Due to online learning, the practical approach was compromised.

Online learning supplements traditional learning and helps in regaining learning loss. Learners learn online and gain knowledge through technology. But the paradox is that all-time online learning itself is resulting in learning loss as it is distracting learners, creating technological issues, chances of the untaught syllabus, negativity in learning, absence of social interaction, and learning environment. It was assumed that online learning may bring revolution in medication of behavior of the learners. But today, it is being realized that the degrees from online learning are being unvalued and it is a threat not only to learning but also in chasing a good career. The results show handsome scores but the fundamental knowledge and practicability have been in question. The findings show that even the learners are not comfortable with online learning and understand the threat of learning loss.

In recent years, huge amounts of structured, unstructured, and semi-structured data have been generated by various institutions around the world and, collectively, this heterogeneous data is referred to as big data. The health industry sector has been confronted by the need to manage the big data being produced by various sources, which are well known for producing high volumes of heterogeneous data. Various big-data analytics tools and techniques have been developed for handling these massive amounts of data, in the healthcare sector. In this paper, we discuss the impact of big data in healthcare, and various tools available in the Hadoop ecosystem for handling it. Hadoop is an Apache open source framework written in java that allows distributed processing of large datasets across clusters of computers using simple programming models. The Hadoop framework application works in an environment that provides distributed storage and computation across clusters of computers. Hadoop is designed to scale up from single server to thousands of machines, each offering local computation and storage. In this paper we also explore the conceptual architecture of big data analytics for healthcare which involves the data gathering history of different branches, the genome database, electronic health records, text/imagery, and clinical decisions support system.
