Self-Driving Trucks
Tractor-trailers without a human at the wheel will soon barrel onto highways near you. What will this mean for the nation’s 1.7 million truck drivers?
Roman Mugriyev was driving his long-haul 18-wheeler down a two-lane Texas highway when he saw an oncoming car drift into his lane just a few hundred feet ahead. There was a ditch to his right and more oncoming cars to his left, so there was little for him to do but hit his horn and brake. “I could hear the man who taught me to drive telling me what he always said was rule number one: ‘Don’t hurt anybody,’” Mugriyev recalls. But it wasn’t going to work out that way. The errant car collided with the front of Mugriyev’s truck. It shattered his front axle, and he struggled to keep his truck and the wrecked car now fused to it from hitting anyone else as it barreled down the road. After Mugriyev finally came to a stop, he learned that the woman driving the car had been killed in the collision.
We will probably find out in the next few years, because multiple companies are now testing self-driving trucks. Although many technical problems are still unresolved, proponents claim that self-driving trucks will be safer and less costly. “This system often drives better than I do,” says Greg Murphy, who’s been a professional truck driver for 40 years. He now serves as a safety backup driver during tests of self-driving trucks by Otto, a San Francisco company that outfits trucks with the equipment needed to drive themselves.
Daimler and Peloton Technology, California-based technology company, is championing the idea of creating truck pelotons that can further reduce the cost of fuel and haul more freight at a time. While a peloton or caravan of driverless trucks sounds pretty far-flung, technically it is quite feasible. The lead truck would have one driver in the cab who would lead the caravan of a dozen or so trucks along the highway. Peloton’s platooning technology connects two or more trucks via cloud technology and uses safety features like active braking, which is already found on many passenger cars today. The lead truck driver would control all the trucks, but drivers will still be needed to maneuver the highway exits, city streets, and backing up to the loading dock. Semi-autonomous freight trucks might also help curve the driver shortage. The American Trucking Association says the trucking industry employs more than 7 million drivers, but the number of drivers have fallen in the recent years.

About University Library
The University library system consists of a Main Library and College / Department/Seminar Libraries. The University Library coordinates the library system, which links the libraries in all the campus and constituent college libraries. The main library was established in 1918 along with the University. The Library was shifted to the present building, which was inaugurated by Dr.S.Radhakrishnan, the then President of India on 3rd August 1963. The main library building departs from the traditional use of the Indo-Saracenic arch, but it seeks unity with the older buildings of the campus through the dominant pillars of the entrance portal. It stands majestically inviolable on the highest point of the campus, commanding a panoramic view of the unusually beautiful Deccan landscape. The new building has a floor area of 62,000 sq. ft. It is a fitting symbol of the present decade of progress. The Library is divided into a number of Sections basing on the collection and services offered. They are Text Book Section, Periodical Section, Reference Section, Acquisition & Cataloguing Sections. Additionally, it has Vision of Osmania, Manuscript Section, Theses Section, CERL Section & U.N. Section, which are highlighted.Working Hours
The library is kept open throughout the year except for six days (three national and three festival holidays). It is kept open from 9.00 a.m. to 9.00 p.m. on all working days, 9.00 a.m. to 11.00 p.m. during examinations and 10.00 a.m. to 4.30 p.m. on holidays.Sections

Presently, it is catering to the higher educational needs of the revenue districts of Anantapur and Kurnool. The Post Graduate centre at Kurnool was brought under the jurisdiction of the University in the year 1993.
Post-Graduate courses and research programmes are presently
offered by the University at the University College, Anantapur,
and at the Post Graduate centre, Kurnool. The University
College offers 38 post graduate courses through 28 departments.
11 post graduate courses are being conducted at the P.G.
centre, Kurnool through 8 departments.
Sri Krishnadevaraya University is contributing to the cause
of higher education through 112 affiliated degree colleges
of which 7 are meant exclusively for women. The other colleges
affiliated to the University include 26 Colleges of Education,
2 Oriental Colleges, 2 Law Colleges and one Engineering
College. 20 affiliated colleges under the University are
also offering post graduate courses in various disciplines.
Sri Krishnadevaraya University has facilities for undertaking
study and research through well established library and

In a short span of two decades of its existence, Sri Krishnadevaraya
University gained recognition as a centre of academic excellence,
as it is accorded a four star status by the National Assessment
and Accreditation Council.
UGC X Plan Visiting
Committee’s Observations : The
Tenth Plan Visiting Committee’s recommendations were highly
positive in regard to the University’s functioning. The
UGC allocated Rs. 350 lakhs for funding departmental and
central facilities at the campuses at Anantapur and Kurnool.
In addition, in its academic recommendations, the Visiting
Committee expressed the view that the University is playing
a vital role in the study and analysis of the drought situation.
It has observed that this advanced research on drought needs
further strengthening since some of the departments are actively
engaged in working on alternative strategies to mitigate
drought. This inter-departmental approach adopted by the
University, the UGC said, is holistic and combines theory
and practice and thus this facility is to be strengthened
and needs to be recognized as development radar.
NAAC Observations : The
Peer Team of the NAAC made the following observations in
its Assessment Report after accrediting the University
at four star level “The
Peer Team, after going through the Self-Study Report and
after its visit to various academic and physical facilities
and interactions, is impressed by the remarkable progress
of Sri Krishnadevaraya University in transacting its vision
and goals of advancement of the frontiers of knowledge
in the field of higher education. The University has earned
a high reputation for imparting quality education to the
younger generation in this backward region.Sri Krishnadevaraya
University has been lucky to have successive scholarly
dynamic Vice-Chancellors for its unbridled advancement
since its inception. Teaching, learning and evaluation
get their rightful emphasis in the University. One can
also discern that the University has been able to inculcate
a research culture among the faculty and most of the departments
have been able to get extra-mural funding from outside
sources. Infrastructural facilities are impressive on the
campus. Organization and financial management are efficient
and transparent”.

JAWAHARLAL NEHRU UNIVERSITY
JAWAHARLAL NEHRU UNIVERSITY [JNU]
IntroductionYoung at forty two years, as universities go, what has lent strength and energy to Jawaharlal Nehru University is the vision that ideas are a field for adventure, experimentation and unceasing quest and diversity of opinions its chief premise. In the early 1970s, when JNU opened its doors to teachers and students, frontier disciplines and new perspectives on old disciplines were brought to the Indian university system. The excellent teacher-student ratio at 1:10, a mode of instruction which encouraged students to explore their own creativity instead of reproducing received knowledge, and an exclusively internal evaluation were a new experiment on the Indian academic landscape; these have stood the test of time. The very Nehruvian objectives embedded in the founding of the University, national integration, social justice, secularism, the democratic way of life, international understanding and scientific approach to the problems of society had built into it constant and energetic endeavour to renew knowledge through self-questioning.
