The expansion of World Wide Web (WWW) in its size and exponential growth of its users has made the web most powerful and dynamic medium for information dissemination, storage, and retrieval. Moreover, the improvements in data storage technology have also made it possible to capture the huge amount of the user interactions (clickstreams) with the websites. The availability of such a huge amount of web user clickstreams has opened the new challenges for researchers to explore the weblog for the identification of hidden knowledge. For the last decade, web usage mining is playing a crucial role in the identification of trends from user clickstreams such as web personalization; user profiling; and user behavior analysis. These trends are beneficial in many ways such as information retrieval, website administration and improvement; customer relationship management; e-marketing; and recommender systems. The plenty of techniques are available in the literature, however, the accuracy, correctness and validity of the generated trends is totally relying on the proper selection of web mining process such as web sessionization, which is the benchmark for the later web usage mining stages. For the promising and optimized results, weblog sessionization is the eventual choice. Moreover, the extraction of proper, accurate and noise free sessionization is a demanding and challenging job in the presence of huge web clickstreams. The sessionization problem may fail to identify the focused and visualized groups from clickstreams records with high coverage and precision. Even though the well-known web session similarity measures such as Euclidean, Cosine, and Jaccard are prevalent in literature for mining process at the early learning stages. The web sessionization must take account of the validity of generated trends, which entirely depends upon the correctness and credibility of web sessions. To overcome the limitations of existing web sessionization techniques, we propose a Framework for Mining Trends (F MET) that empowers us to gauge the user activities on the website through evolutionary hierarchical Sessionization. Hierarchical Sessionization enhances the visualization of user click data to improve the business logic and mines the focused groups for scalable tracking of user activities. The foundation of the proposed framework is the swarm based optimized clustering technique along with a proposed web session similarity measure ST Index to address the Hierarchical Sessionization problem. The proposed web session similarity measure ST Index for hierarchical sessionization overcomes the limitations of Euclidean, Cosine and Jaccard measures, which may have failed to explicitly seek the proper and accurate trends. The Euclidean measures are of numerical in nature while the weblog data is of mixed nature. Moreover, existing measures are best for independent and isolated clustering groups. The proposed similarity measure ST Index computes the similarity among the user sessions through the common features (pages) shared among the sessions while assigning weight to uncommon features among the given sessions along with the minimum time shared by the given sessions time ratio. We validated and verify the proposed framework on three different datasets. The proposed ST Index measure produced the accurate and valid relationship among the sessions against common web session similarity measures. Furthermore, framework also produced the correct, accurate and valid trends. The performance of the proposed framework is validated against the well-known data analysis metrics such as VC (visitor coherence), accuracy, coverage and F1 Measures. The results show the significance improvements over the existing techniques of hierarchical Sessionization

کر کے قول قرار دے بھج جانا

کر کے قول قرار دے بھج جانا
چنگا نہیں ہوندا لا کے پج جانا
ہک وار تاں یار ملا ربا
اساں ویکھدیاں سار ای رج جانا
پردہ رکھیے کسے دا رب آکھے
کم مرد دا اے پردہ کج جانا
دکھی دل نوں جنھاں نے جت لیا
کر سمجھ لے اوہناں نیں حج جانا
کم شہر دے وچ نہیں کوئی اے پر
گلی سجناں دی کسے پج جانا
اوکھے ویلے جو یار نہ کم آوے
چنگا ہوندا اے اوس توں بھج جانا

Empowering Women through Media in Algerian Non-Governmental Organizations

تعد وسائل الإعلام أداة تستخدمها العديد من المنظمات غير الحكومية في جميع أنحاء العالم. تهدف هذه الدراسة إلى التحقيق في الاستراتيجية التي تستخدمها المنظمات النسائية غير الحكومية في الجزائر لتعزيز ومناصرة المشاكل التي تؤثر على حقوق المرأة وتمكينها. يتم تحقيق ذلك من خلال النظر في كيفية تعبئة المنظمات غير الحكومية لمواردها واستخدام تقنيات محددة لدعم برامج تمكين المرأة. وتنتمي هذه الدراسة إلى البحوث الوصفية التي تختار طريقة مختلطة تجمع بين المقاربات النوعية والكمية. بتعبير أدق، استخدمت استبيانًا منظمًا وزع على 200 مستجيب و16 مقابلة شبه منظمة موجهة إلى مديري المنظمات غير الحكومية من 14 منظمة غير حكومية مختلفة في الجزائر العاصمة. تكشف النتائج أن المنظمات غير الحكومية تختار أدوات وسائل الإعلام اعتمادًا على صلتها بالجماهير والممارسات المستهدفة. في حين أن القنوات الإعلامية التقليدية لم تكن تستخدم بشكل متكرر من قبل المنظمات غير الحكومية وكانت فعالة من حيث الوصول إلى أهدافها الدعائية، كان لوسائل التواصل الاجتماعي تأثير أكثر عمقًا على الناس. ومع ذلك، استخدمته بعض المنظمات غير الحكومية للتأثير على الجمهور من خلال تعزيز النشاط وزيادة الوعي بقضايا المرأة. النظر في ظهور المرأة في أماكن جديدة، مثل وسائل التواصل الاجتماعي، والتحقيق في وظيفة المساحات التي تم تشكيلها حديثًا في عملية التمكين يجب استكشافها وتقييمها بشكل أكبر لمساعدة المنظمات غير الحكومية على القيام بعمل أكثر فعالية في هذا المجال.

Determinants of Personal Well-being with mediating Role of Workaholics: A Study of Non-Compulsive

Workaholics from Universities of Multan District One of the significant sources of competitive advantage for an organization is its human capital. Focusing on human capital, the purpose of the study was to explore the effect of intrinsic motivation, self-esteem, and external and internal locus of control on the personal well-being through the mediating effect of workaholism. A person when working for the organizational well being is a possibility that he/she may become workaholic but when they are working for their personal well-being do they get demotivated on work through workaholism or not. Exploratory factor analysis, Confirmatory factor analysis, and structural equation modeling were carried out to test the hypothesized relationships in the data provided by 348 administrative staff of the Universities of Multan District. This study provides novel insight into the understanding of role of Workaholism towards personal well-being. Initially as literature commends the role of Workaholism was considered to be more well-being oriented than its negative out comes on life satisfaction of employees. This study adds new evidences which report that Workaholism nullifies the positive impact of important predictor of well being. The new relationships add significantly to the understanding Workaholism.
