EMPLOYEES WORK LIFE BALANCE, GARMENTS INDUSTRIES, BANGALORE

One of the major drivers of the nation's economy and exports in India is the textile sector. For Indian labor, it offers a plethora of employment alternatives. After agriculture, the textile sector is considered India's second-largest employer. As a result, the expansion and general development of this sector directly affects the advancement of the national economy. If an industry's personnel is dedicated, it may overcome the ongoing worldwide rivalry and attain greater Availability. Industry needs to supply suitable working circumstances, a suitable working conditions, and adequate facilities to guarantee that all employees perform effectively toward organization goals. Inadequate workspaces and working circumstances affect employees' work-life balance either directly or indirectly in addition to being the cause of job discontent, higher employee turnover, poor performance, and decreased productivity. It's critical to preserve skilled workers' industry satisfaction levels and pinpoint areas where worker WLB needs to be improved in order to keep them on staff.The intention of This research aims to evaluate workers' fulfillment of their working circumstances in the textile industry and assess how it affects their work-life balance. Madhya Pradesh's textile industry employed factory workers as the study's population. Those in management and supervision were not included in the research. The goal between the current study was to provide details and recommendations on how to improve the working conditions for textile sector workers To be able to improve work-life harmony.The majority of work-environment related elements had a negative impact on employees' work-life balance, according to the findings. The findings also highlight how uncomfortable it is for employed people to work in their current environments, which has serious ramifications for families, businesses, and society as large. It is highly advised that companies implement worker-friendly policies in conjunction with more considerate and supporting families To be able to preserve Work-life equilibrium and foster harmony among employees

MP2-F12 Basis Set Convergence for the S66 Noncovalent Interactions Benchmark: Transferability of the Complementary Auxiliary Basis Set (CABS)

Complementary auxiliary basis sets for F12 explicitly correlated calculations appear to be more transferable between orbital basis sets than has been generally assumed. We also find that aVnZ-F12 basis sets, originally developed with anionic systems in mind, appear to be superior for noncovalent interactions as well, and propose a suitable CABS sequence for them.Comment: AIP Conference Proceedings, in press (ICCMSE-2017 proceedings), 4 page

How to Securely Compute the Modulo-Two Sum of Binary Sources

In secure multiparty computation, mutually distrusting users in a network want to collaborate to compute functions of data which is distributed among the users. The users should not learn any additional information about the data of others than what they may infer from their own data and the functions they are computing. Previous works have mostly considered the worst case context (i.e., without assuming any distribution for the data); Lee and Abbe (2014) is a notable exception. Here, we study the average case (i.e., we work with a distribution on the data) where correctness and privacy is only desired asymptotically. For concreteness and simplicity, we consider a secure version of the function computation problem of K\"orner and Marton (1979) where two users observe a doubly symmetric binary source with parameter p and the third user wants to compute the XOR. We show that the amount of communication and randomness resources required depends on the level of correctness desired. When zero-error and perfect privacy are required, the results of Data et al. (2014) show that it can be achieved if and only if a total rate of 1 bit is communicated between every pair of users and private randomness at the rate of 1 is used up. In contrast, we show here that, if we only want the probability of error to vanish asymptotically in block length, it can be achieved by a lower rate (binary entropy of p) for all the links and for private randomness; this also guarantees perfect privacy. We also show that no smaller rates are possible even if privacy is only required asymptotically.Comment: 6 pages, 1 figure, extended version of submission to IEEE Information Theory Workshop, 201

The Oblivious Transfer Capacity of the Wiretapped Binary Erasure Channel

We consider oblivious transfer between Alice and Bob in the presence of an eavesdropper Eve when there is a broadcast channel from Alice to Bob and Eve. In addition to the secrecy constraints of Alice and Bob, Eve should not learn the private data of Alice and Bob. When the broadcast channel consists of two independent binary erasure channels, we derive the oblivious transfer capacity for both 2-privacy (where the eavesdropper may collude with either party) and 1-privacy (where there are no collusions).Comment: This is an extended version of the paper "The Oblivious Transfer Capacity of the Wiretapped Binary Erasure Channel" to be presented at ISIT 201

On the Oblivious Transfer Capacity of the Degraded Wiretapped Binary Erasure Channel

We study oblivious transfer (OT) between Alice and Bob in the presence of an eavesdropper Eve over a degraded wiretapped binary erasure channel from Alice to Bob and Eve. In addition to the privacy goals of oblivious transfer between Alice and Bob, we require privacy of Alice and Bob's private data from Eve. In previous work we derived the OT capacity (in the honest-but-curious model) of the wiretapped binary independent erasure channel where the erasure processes of Bob and Eve are independent. Here we derive a lower bound on the OT capacity in the same secrecy model when the wiretapped binary erasure channel is degraded in favour of Bob.Comment: To be presented at the IEEE International Symposium on Information Theory (ISIT 2015), Hong Kon

Pricing Models for Perishable Goods with Customer Perception

In this paper, the pricing problem for perishable goods with customer perception is studied. Firstly, the customer value theory is introduced. Secondly, the problem is described. Then, the pricing model of perishable goods is established, in consideration of customer perception. At last, some data analysis and discussion are made via a concrete case study, the optimal pricing policy and maximum expected profit of the retailers are gained and some useful management conclusions are drawn

AVID triad: a case report

Asymmetric ventriculomegaly, interhemispheric cyst and dysgenesis of the corpus callosum (AVID) constitutes a rare imaging triad. Additional findings include subcortical and subependymal heterotopia, polymicrogyria, fused thalami, deficient falx, and hydrocephalus. The knowledge of this triad helps us to diagnose prenatally by sonography and fetal MRI. In this case report authors present MRI Imaging findings in a case of AVID syndrome in a 6year old male child presenting with history of seizures and delayed milestones

Simulation of Thin Film Thermocouple for High Temperature Measurement Applicable to Missiles

Thermocouples have been extensively used for the measurement of temperature since the advent of seebeck effect. Numerous sensors have been developed for temperature measurement, yet measurement of high temperature flowing fluid has been a challenging task. For the measurement of static temperature the measuring device should travel with the fluid at the same speed without disturbing the flow, which is quite unrealistic. So indirect determination of static temperature of flowing fluid is done by using thermocouple exposed into the flowing fluid. Other sensors available for high temperature measurement may lead to problems like resistance in the flow path of fluid which changes the structural dynamics. Thin film thermocouple (TFTC) based on W-W26Re for super high temperature measurement has been investigated which can be used in missiles for surface temperature measurement of nozzle and rocket interior surface. TFTC does not cause disruption in the flow path with maintaining structural integrity. The W-W26Re thermocouple offers advantage of higher seebeck coefficient at high temperature i.e. above 750 K, and usability in vacuum, inert and hydrogen atmosphere. Zirconia Fiber has been proposed as insulation protection material over thermocouple. Modelling and simulation of the TFTC for the temperature range 300 K - 2900 K has been presented. FEA model using PDE has been presented to implement heat equation, current balance  quation, Gauss theorem and Neumann boundary condition. The expected voltage production on exposed temperature gradient has been studied
