As seen in the diagram (right), the just-in-time approach to manufacturing has swept the world’s factories over the
past two decades, resulting in a major reduction in inventory at U.S. companies. But some manufacturers think it
has gone too far and that having a little extra padding might be a healthier option.

EXTENSIVE DAMAGE SHOWN AT THE SENDAI AIRPORT FOLLOWING THE 9.0 MAGNITUDE EARTHQUAKE AND TSUNAMI THAT ROCKED JAPAN IN
2011.
Although being lean helps manufacturers hold down costs by keeping stockpiles of components and finished
goods low, it can leave them high and dry if production supplies don’t arrive as expected, a risk highlighted by the
parts shortages caused by the earthquake and tsunami in Japan. The March 11, 2011, disaster that damaged
factories and hobbled ports in Japan has thrown the situation into sharp relief. The disruptions quickly radiated
out, putting kinks in the global supply chains of several industries. Auto plants in the midwest United States and
electronics factories across Asia scrambled to find substitutes for Japanese-made parts. Many other industries
say they are still assessing how the disruptions will filter back to them.

Dissemination Patterns of Technical Knowledge in the IR Industry: Scientometric Analysis of Citations in IR-related Patents
Ricardo Eito-Brun (Universidad Carlos III de Madrid, Spain)
The purpose of this paper is to identify the most influential institutions and journals on information retrieval and text mining through the analysis of the citations in the patents issued in the period between 1990 and 2013.
Bibliographic citations received by different academic journals in a representative set of patents related to the text mining area are analyzed applying sound and consolidated statistical techniques. Besides identifying the most influential academic journals, conferences and institutions in the period under study, the conclusions of this research are also useful to identify the most relevant and productive organizations (those with a higher number of patents) and those organizations whose patents have received a major number of citations.
The analysis also permits to obtain a general view of the disseminations patterns in the consumption of the products of academic and technical research. The period under study offers interesting conclusions regarding the impact of the Web on the Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) strategies of companies building Information Retrieval and Text Mining software solutions, and how the information retrieval and access industry has evolved in the recent years.
The most conservative part in a company is mediocre experts who love status quo. Top tier experts tend to climb up mountains from one peak to another peak, so as to explore new ideas and products. You must move also from one to another one. It is said,
“You can raise the bar or you can wait for others to raise it, but it’s getting raised regardless.” Raise your bar higher enough no to succeed now but in the future eventually. Your life is counted hoe many oh-shit moment you experienced. Gotta run.

Hierarchical Digital Twin of a Naval Power SystemKerry Sado
A hierarchical digital twin of a Naval DC power system has been developed and experimentally verified. Similar to other state-of-the-art digital twins, this technology creates a digital replica of the physical system executed in real-time or faster, which can modify hardware controls. However, its advantage stems from distributing computational efforts by utilizing a hierarchical structure composed of lower-level digital twin blocks and a higher-level system digital twin. Each digital twin block is associated with a physical subsystem of the hardware and communicates with a singular system digital twin, which creates a system-level response. By extracting information from each level of the hierarchy, power system controls of the hardware were reconfigured autonomously. This hierarchical digital twin development offers several advantages over other digital twins, particularly in the field of naval power systems. The hierarchical structure allows for greater computational efficiency and scalability while the ability to autonomously reconfigure hardware controls offers increased flexibility and responsiveness. The hierarchical decomposition and models utilized were well aligned with the physical twin, as indicated by the maximum deviations between the developed digital twin hierarchy and the hardware.
Final project report on grocery store management system..pdfKamal Acharya
In today’s fast-changing business environment, it’s extremely important to be able to respond to client needs in the most effective and timely manner. If your customers wish to see your business online and have instant access to your products or services.
Online Grocery Store is an e-commerce website, which retails various grocery products. This project allows viewing various products available enables registered users to purchase desired products instantly using Paytm, UPI payment processor (Instant Pay) and also can place order by using Cash on Delivery (Pay Later) option. This project provides an easy access to Administrators and Managers to view orders placed using Pay Later and Instant Pay options.
In order to develop an e-commerce website, a number of Technologies must be studied and understood. These include multi-tiered architecture, server and client-side scripting techniques, implementation technologies, programming language (such as PHP, HTML, CSS, JavaScript) and MySQL relational databases. This is a project with the objective to develop a basic website where a consumer is provided with a shopping cart website and also to know about the technologies used to develop such a website.
This document will discuss each of the underlying technologies to create and implement an e- commerce website.

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.
