Overlapped Text Partition Algorithm for Pattern Matching on Hypercube Networked Model

The web has been continuously growing and getting hourglass shape. The indexed web is measured to contain at least 30 billion pages. It is no surprise that searching data poses serious challenges in terms of quality and speed. Another important subtask of the pattern discovery process is sting matching, where in which the pattern occurrence is already known and we need determine how often and where it is occurs in given text. The target of current research challenges and identified the new trends i.e distributed environment where in which the given text file is divided into subparts and distributed to N no. of processors organized in hypercube networked fashion .To improve the search speed and reduce the time complexity we need to run the string matching algorithms in parallel distributed environment called as hypercube networked model using RMI method. we considered both KV-KMP and KV-boyer-moore string matching algorithms for pattern matching in large text data bases using three data sets and graph's drawn for different patterns

Strategic Marketing Environment based on Integrated CRM to Foster Competition

After the great wave of ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) systems implementations, the organizations focus has been turning to CRM (Customer Relationship Management) applications. CRM systems are centered on one to one interactions with customers, they analyse each client trying to identify his or her own characteristics from internal and external data. At the same time, every client interaction is registered, to create a relationship historical data. Intelligent tools like data mining and OLAP using complex algorithms, rules based systems, fuzzy logic and multivariate statistics data analysis will retrieve the best of clients, partners, employees, suppliers and other strategic data to provide the organization with accurate actions for marketing campaigns, better products, excellence of services and decision making, based on the organization ecosystem. This study reviews concepts of CRM, its architecture and integration with ERP, Governance Systems, and Competence Administration, in the current perspective of integrated corporate management systems connected to the internet. In kernel we propose a “intelligence core joystick” where the strategic core supports and decides about resources allocation, negociates and establishes politics and actions to minimize the conflicting forces to get a balance line satisfaction between participants or partners. Our model also contemplates data warehouse, which centralizes separately all the corporate significant data to provide managers with high quality data for the decision making. According to the corporation, this data warehouse can feed others data marts to serve specific departamental areas such as Marketing and Human Management Competences. In addition, to link the participants, organization and processes, there is a intelligent communication infrastructure to simplify and speed actions, to spread organizational culture and relevant information throughout the organization in a symbiotic way

Вплив фінансових технологій на розвиток банківського бізнесу

The development of financial technologies, so-called FinTech, has fundamentally changed the architecture of the modern financial services market, significantly affecting the role of banks in it. These changes determine the need of new approaches for the market behavior of both banks (to maintain competitive positions) and regulators (in order to prevent potential crisis phenomena). It is substantiated that at the present stage of development of financial-credit intermediation, determinants of competitive behavior of banks are nonconventional factors such as a degree of freedom to enter the market, an information asymmetry, a level of services and marketing support, an emergence of electronic channels for banking products’ distribution, the development of electronic payment systems and transfers of other banking information. It is investigated main approaches to the definition of financial technologies (FinTech). It is justified the necessity of distinguishing this concept and the FinTech segment, it is proposed to define financial technologies in the narrow sense as the provision of financial services by nonbanking institutions using modern information technologies, which is rationalizing the analysis of the FinTech’s role in the banking. In the article it is identified and characterized external (caused by the objective development of society and fundamental changes in the banks’ environment) and internal (caused by the need of maintaining the competitive positions by banks) factors of financial technologies’ development. It is proved that the FinTech’s impact on banking is determined by changes in the structure of the financial services market, a decrease in barriers to entry the market, and an increase of its spatial coverage. The development of FinTech leads to lower costs and higher efficiency of banks, increased competition in the banking environment, reduced information asymmetry, increased financial inclusion, but at the same time leads to the generation of new financial and technological risks for banks.Розвиток фінансових технологій, або «FinTech», докорінно змінив архітектуру сучасного ринку фінансових послуг, суттєво вплинув на роль банків на ньому. Ці зміни обумовлюють необхідність нових підходів до ринкової поведінки як банків (для збереження конкурентних позицій), так і регуляторів (з метою запобігання потенційним кризовим явищам). Обґрунтовано, що на сучасному етапі розвитку фінансово-кредитного посередництва детермінантами конкурентної поведінки банків стають нетрадиційні фактори, такі як ступінь свободи виходу на ринок, інформаційна асиметрія, рівень сервісу та маркетингового забезпечення, поява електронних каналів дистрибуції банківських продуктів, розвиток систем електронних платежів та передавання іншої банківської інформації. Досліджено основні підходи до визначення поняття «фінансові технології» (FinTech). Обґрунтовано необхідність розмежування цього поняття та сегмента FinTech, запропоновано визначати фінансові технології у вузькому сенсі як надання фінансових послуг небанківськими інститутами із використанням сучасних інформаційних технологій, що сприяє раціоналізації аналізу ролі FinTech у банківському бізнесі. Виокремлено та охарактеризовано екстернальні (зумовлені об’єктивним розвитком суспільства i докорінними змінами середовища функціонування банків) та інтернальні (зумовлені необхідністю збереження банками конкурентних позицій) чинники розвитку фінансових технологій. Доведено, що вплив FinTech на банківський бізнес визначається змінами у структурі ринку фінансових послуг, зменшенням бар’єрів для вступу на ринок, збільшенням його просторового охоплення. Розвиток FinTech призводить до зменшення витрат і підвищення ефективності діяльності банків, посилення конкуренції в банківському середовищі, зменшення інформаційної асиметрії, підвищення фінансової інклюзії клієнтів, однак, разом з тим, призводить до генерації нових фінансових і технологічних ризиків для банків

Role-based Data Management

Database systems build an integral component of today’s software systems and as such they are the central point for storing and sharing a software system’s data while ensuring global data consistency at the same time. Introducing the primitives of roles and their accompanied metatype distinction in modeling and programming languages, results in a novel paradigm of designing, extending, and programming modern software systems. In detail, roles as modeling concept enable a separation of concerns within an entity. Along with its rigid core, an entity may acquire various roles in different contexts during its lifetime and thus, adapts its behavior and structure dynamically during runtime. Unfortunately, database systems, as important component and global consistency provider of such systems, do not keep pace with this trend. The absence of a metatype distinction, in terms of an entity’s separation of concerns, in the database system results in various problems for the software system in general, for the application developers, and finally for the database system itself. In case of relational database systems, these problems are concentrated under the term role-relational impedance mismatch. In particular, the whole software system is designed by using different semantics on various layers. In case of role-based software systems in combination with relational database systems this gap in semantics between applications and the database system increases dramatically. Consequently, the database system cannot directly represent the richer semantics of roles as well as the accompanied consistency constraints. These constraints have to be ensured by the applications and the database system loses its single point of truth characteristic in the software system. As the applications are in charge of guaranteeing global consistency, their development requires more effort in data management. Moreover, the software system’s data management is distributed over several layers, which results in an unstructured software system architecture. To overcome the role-relational impedance mismatch and bring the database system back in its rightful position as single point of truth in a software system, this thesis introduces the novel and tripartite RSQL approach. It combines a novel database model that represents the metatype distinction as first class citizen in a database system, an adapted query language on the database model’s basis, and finally a proper result representation. Precisely, RSQL’s logical database model introduces Dynamic Data Types, to directly represent the separation of concerns within an entity type on the schema level. On the instance level, the database model defines the notion of a Dynamic Tuple that combines an entity with the notion of roles and thus, allows for dynamic structure adaptations during runtime without changing an entity’s overall type. These definitions build the main data structures on which the database system operates. Moreover, formal operators connecting the query language statements with the database model data structures, complete the database model. The query language, as external database system interface, features an individual data definition, data manipulation, and data query language. Their statements directly represent the metatype distinction to address Dynamic Data Types and Dynamic Tuples, respectively. As a consequence of the novel data structures, the query processing of Dynamic Tuples is completely redesigned. As last piece for a complete database integration of a role-based notion and its accompanied metatype distinction, we specify the RSQL Result Net as result representation. It provides a novel result structure and features functionalities to navigate through query results. Finally, we evaluate all three RSQL components in comparison to a relational database system. This assessment clearly demonstrates the benefits of the roles concept’s full database integration

Video Game Development in India : A Cultural and Creative Industry Embracing Regional Cultural Heritage(s)

Game development and production practices are complex and highly reflected processes-worldwide. This explorative article discusses video game development as a cultural and creative industry in India, including the industry's history and introducing recent trends which indicate profound transformations-the use and implementation of Indian cultural heritage in game settings. In the rather short history of Indian game development as compared to other countries-a significant number of games made in India first were produced around 2010-the industry has already lived through big changes and challenges. This article aims at introducing Indian game development and argues that especially independent (so-called indie) game studios in their search for their own, region-specific game development and stand-alone characteristics for Indian games increasingly turn to what they perceive as their own cultural heritage, including, for example, elements from history, art (music, dance, dress styles, and others), and architecture.Peer reviewe

Sources of tension in the Asia–Pacific: strategic competition, divided regionalism and non-traditional security challenges

  This the first in a series of three papers commissioned for a project that ASPI has been jointly running with Canada’s Centre for International Governance Innovation (CIGI). The project explores the rationale for and possible mechanisms of closer Australia–Canada defence and security cooperation in the Asia–Pacific. The paper is authored by CIGI\u27s James Manicom. The paper considers strategic and security challenges in the region. Canada and Australia - resource-based economies with a record of bilateral and institutional engagement in the region, and important US allies - have an interest in these challenges, and in ensuring regional strategic stability that promotes economic growth. &nbsp
