SOCIAL MEDIA ANALYSIS ON SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT IN FOOD INDUSTRYKaustubh Nale
This paper proposes the importance of
social media analysis in supply chain management in the
food industry. In this analysis, the social media platform
(Twitter) is used to obtain information. In this approach,
two different software (Nodexl and Nvivo) are used to
conduct data mining and text analysis. The outcome of this
analysis will help researchers to make decisions based on
customer feedback.
India continues to witness strong economic growth that is aided by major economic reforms and transformation that country has witnessed in the past years. It is a well-accepted fact that major long-term and sustainable economic growth happens on the back of robust human resources capabilities that requires a strong education system. The Indian Higher Education sector is expected to play an even more important role to meet the growth aspirations of the country. The Indian education sector with around 800 universities will play a pivotal role in providing workforce and developing our leaders of the future.

First thank you for your work I appreciate it but you misunderstood.docxAKHIL969626
First thank you for your work I appreciate it but you misunderstood the instruction. You were writing about the various of modes of transportation, and that in not related to the history for transport The topic should related to the history of transportation such as how did people get started using transport how were they moving from place to another. How has transport changed? For instance, History of road transport:The first road transport was people riding animals( horses, oxen……et .Than using carts, train, bicycles , buss, car …….ets what ever . and should be arranged based of what the used to use first I really appreciate your working but you need to turn it to historical topic as I mentioned in the Instruction File to be something related to the history not to the types of transport in general. Show how the process of changing transport has changed? Thanks :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mpVqY6Z74Tkhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=puyiRLtO7Fk

DB1: Option A, Forecasting
Top of Form
Through a recent forecast through eMarketer, Snapchat (SNAP) is projected to bring in roughly $3 billion in advertising sales alone. Yahoo and Twitter have seen decreasing figures in advertising numbers, where Snapchat has seen growth. Facebook and Google are currently dominating the advertising market, but Snapchat looks to compete with the two giants: “Snapchat is expected to present a challenge to Facebook and Google’s rule of mobile advertising” (Simon, 2017). The few articles I researched don’t specifically speak on the type of forecasting that was used to acquire these figures, but from what I’ve gathered it appears to be “time-series forecasts”. “Time-series forecasts simply attempt to project past experience into the future. These techniques use historical data with the assumption that the future will be like the past” (Stevenson, 2015, pg. 82). Snapchat’s previous advertising figures, as well as their incredible $9 price jump in the stock market, would point to Snapchat being on the rise. Also, what points to Snapchat surpassing Yahoo and Twitter, is the decline in advertising revenue from both companies. To look at the declining numbers and assume a similar trend in the future would share the same style of forecasting as the time-series forecasting approach. Snapchat’s current market share in the advertising realm is relatively low (1.3%), but according to the same forecast by eMarketer, their market share (in terms of percentage) will double to 2.7% by 2019 (Jain, 2017). The forecast couldn’t have come at a better time for Snapchat and it’s shareholders. The stock price has shot up in the very early stages since becoming a publicly traded company, and these forecasted reports point to more growth in the next two to three years. Twitter and Yahoo currently have more advertising revenue than Snapchat, but if the time series forecast continues to be applied, it points to Twitter and Yahoo continuing to decline, and Sn ...

An Introduction of E-learning based on Social NetworksEswar Publications
Social networks contribute a good portion of Internet traffic nowadays and thus attract tremendous research interests. Among social networking services, Facebook has become most popular for communication with familiar and also with unfamiliar
persons. Many people at different levels use social network. The impact of the use of social network on students is very high. We have conducted a survey on various students from several universities of Bangladesh.The result has revealed that most of the students use Internet for social networking rather than studying. Our point of view is this part of information. Our concern is to propose an option where students can study from several pages regarding learning with the all other facilities of social network. It will help a student to learn through the use of social network.
Developing systems application based on android as tool for determinant stunt...Igun
The purpose of this study is to build an integrated survey application software with android-based stunting determinants and websites to obtain a centralized baseline dataset.

A Review of Big Data Analytics in Sector of Higher EducationIJERA Editor
This paper is about the use of big data analytics in higher education. In this paper, we see what the big data is and where does it come from. We will also try to find why the big data analytics has become a buzzword in almost every sector today through our literature review on the big data analytics and its applications in higher education sector. Then we see what the big educational data is, how it is generated and analyzed. We found that the two most important types of analytics are- Learning and academic analytics which will be discussed. Several papers describe the benefits of implementation of analytics in the education sector and the opportunities provided which will be discussed in this paper. We also found that the basic characteristics such as size, speed, variety and some other factors are responsible for some issues and challenges to the use of analytics in this sector. We will discuss those issues and challenges and discuss some proposed solutions to address them.
Survey on Krishi-Mitra: Expert System for FarmersIJERA Editor
In agricultural sector, farmers in rural areas faced major problems because of illiteracy. They cannot take the advantage of internet to access the information related to farming. The information represented in icons will help the farmers to take the important decisions. Also there will be additional benefit to farmer as there is speech based interaction in Indian language with icons. According to UNESCO report, 64% population in India cannot use the internet due to lack of technical knowledge. Here, we are extending the approach from computer devices to small mobile devices application.
VIABILITY OF COMPUTER-BASED EXAMINATION IN DEVELOPING NATIONS: THE WAY FORWARDIJCSEA Journal
Computer-based examination is becoming order of the day in almost all developed, developing and under
developed nations. This is due to its advantages over paper means of testing. Unfortunately, some of the
developing countries are adopting it without thorough examination of its feasibility, practicability,
capability and possibility. This study tried to educate the public, government and examination bodies on the
issues on ground that needs special attention before its full implementation. Data were gathered, analyzed
and interpreted to show clear picture of present situation and the way forward.

The Indian auto sector is in dire straits and is facing a crisis not seen in the past two decades, jobs and manufacturing data released by an apex body representing the industry has shown.
Fast Facts
Auto industry in India contributes around half of manufacturing GDP and 11% of the total GST revenue. It is estimated that the sector also supports almost 37 million direct and indirect jobs.
Overall, the auto sector witnessed an 18 per cent dip in sales in the month of July 2019. The worst hit was the passenger vehicle category, which saw a 35 per cent decline in sales.
Government of India has withdrawn the special status of J&K by invoking the Article 370 which had been seen as firewalling the autonomy of Jammu and Kashmir.
The Constitution (Application to Jammu and Kashmir) Order, 2019, has extended all provisions of the Indian Constitution to Jammu and Kashmir, including the chapter on Fundamental Rights.
This is the first time that Article 370 has been used to amend Article 367 (which deals with Interpretation) in respect of Jammu and Kashmir, and this amendment has then been used to amend Article 370 itself.
