The document proposes establishing autonomous Centers of Excellence through public-private partnerships to promote research and innovation in India. Currently, India contributes only a small fraction of global patent applications and Ph.D.s despite its large population. The centers would provide common platforms for collaboration, infrastructure, and resources to address issues like lack of funding and support for small businesses and students. The proposal outlines plans for initializing, operating, and expanding the centers over time to maximize their benefits for scientists, businesses, students, and society.
Technology in the Wild: Dynamics and Uncertainty in Field Experiments, Vietnam
This document discusses field experiments for new agricultural technologies and identifies issues with the current "normal science" paradigm. It presents a case study of a field experiment in Vietnam examining the impact of a farming technique. The study found uncertainty in outcomes, bias in participant selection, and that technicians demonstrated expert knowledge rather than farmers' realities. It recommends adopting a more holistic, systems-based approach that considers political, social, and cultural factors; sees projects as research; and reimagines extension workers as innovation brokers to better connect technical and social sciences.

2 Requirements Elicitation: A Survey of Techniques,
Approaches, and Tools
Didar Zowghi and Chad Coulin
Abstract: Requirements elicitation is the process of seeking, uncovering, acquir-
ing, and elaborating requirements for computer based systems. It is generally un-
derstood that requirements are elicited rather than just captured or collected. This
implies there are discovery, emergence, and development elements to the elicita-
tion process. Requirements elicitation is a complex process involving many ac-
tivities with a variety of available techniques, approaches, and tools for perform-
ing them. The relative strengths and weaknesses of these determine when each is
appropriate depending on the context and situation. The objectives of this chapter
are to present a comprehensive survey of important aspects of the techniques, ap-
proaches, and tools for requirements elicitation, and examine the current issues,
trends, and challenges faced by researchers and practitioners in this field.
Keywords: requirements, elicitation, techniques, approaches, tools, issues, chal-
lenges, trends, survey.
2.1 Introduction
The importance of requirements engineering (RE) within software systems deve l-
opment has long been established and recognized by researchers and practitioners
alike (Chapter 1). The elicitation of requirements represents an early but continu-
ous and critical stage in the development of software systems. The requirements
for a software system may be spread across many sources. These include the prob-
lem owners, the stakeholders, documentation, and other existing systems. Because
of the communication rich nature of requirements elicitation activities, many of
the effective techniques do not originate from the traditional areas of software en-
gineering or computer science research. Techniques for requirements elicitation
are derived mostly from the social sciences, organizational theory, group dynam-
ics, knowledge engineering, and very often from practical experience.
The process of requirements elicitation is generally accepted as one of the criti-
cal activities in the RE process. Getting the right requirements is considered as a
vital but difficult part of software development projects [36]. A recent field study
of fifteen RE teams carried out by Hofmann and Lehner [31] identified key RE
practices that should lead to project success. Effective elicitation of requirements
was arguably among the most important of the resulting recommended good RE
practices.
Requirements elicitation itself is a very complex process involving many activi-
ties, with multiple techniques available to perform these activities. The multi-
disciplinary nature of requirements elicitation only adds to this complexity. Elici-
tation is subject to a large degree of error, influenced by key factors ingrained in
communication problems. Despite the importance of requirements elicitation
within software development, insufficient.

INTRODUCTION
The current state of building information systems is terrible. At least

ABSTRACT Many software development projects fail
because the resulting software does not satisfy user needs. The pro-
cess of determining user needs is generally termed requirements
elicitation. Although there are many possible reasons for software
failures, if analysts practiced more effective requirements elicita-
tion, fewer projects would fail. Although hundreds of requirements
elicitation techniques have been developed by researchers to aid
analysts in effectively determining user needs, few have ever been
used by practitioners. This paper reports on research to study the
nature of the gap between requirements elicitation technique avail-
ability and use, identifies the major factors that impact the transfer
of elicitation techniques to practice, and explores how to improve
the transfer of elicitation techniques from research to practice.

understanding users’ needs are consistently identified as among the most
important (Standish Group, 1999). Requirements elicitation techniques
are the means by which systems analysts determine the problems, oppor-
tunities, and needs of the customers, so that systems development person-
nel can construct systems that actually resolve those problems, leverage
those opportunities, and/or address customers’ needs. In response to a
less-than-acceptable rate of failure of systems, hundreds of elicitation tech-
niques have been created by researchers. But the majority of these tech-
niques are rarely, if ever, used by practitioners.
Solution
s appear to be
available, yet we continuously fail to make use of them. Given this gap be-
tween elicitation technique technology availability and use, barriers to the
successful transfer of requirements elicitation techniques from researchers
to practitioners appear to exist.
Problems with the transfer of new requirements elicitation techniques
to practice impact more than the software development industry. First,
information technology, and more specifically the information systems
software that supports an organization’s operations, is critical to the suc-
cess of the vast majority of organizations today. Therefore, any problem
that impacts the successful development of those systems impacts all
organizations. Second, information technology (e.g., knowledge manage-
ment systems) is viewed as a key enabler of technology transfer and info ...
Reading 1 need assessment
This document discusses conducting needs assessments for interactive learning systems. It provides objectives for understanding needs assessment methods, key issues addressed, and effective presentation of results. Needs assessments identify important goals and target audiences for a proposed product. Traditional needs assessment approaches are outlined, including determining purposes and identifying sources to understand what is happening versus what should be happening. Effective needs assessments for interactive learning systems focus on key questions and use rapid prototyping to refine product requirements based on user testing.
Research Methodology
This document provides information about research methodology. It begins by defining what research is, noting that research is a systematic process of finding answers to questions through a search for truth and new knowledge. The document then discusses what can be classified as research through some examples. It also covers the research process, which involves defining the problem, reviewing literature, formulating objectives and hypotheses, designing the methodology, collecting and analyzing data, and reporting findings. Additional topics covered include the purpose of reviewing literature, identifying a research problem, and recording literature through source cards and note cards.
Episode 13 : Research Methodology ( Part 3 )
This document discusses research methodology and what constitutes good research. It defines research as the systematic scientific investigation of a problem by reviewing existing information, collecting and analyzing data, and drawing conclusions. Good research is based on previous work, can be replicated, generalized to other settings, and generates new questions. It proceeds logically from identifying a problem to reviewing literature to data collection and analysis to conclusions. The document contrasts this with bad research, such as looking for something not there, plagiarizing, falsifying data, or misleading. It emphasizes research should improve living beings and that science can be questioned.

OR Intoduction.pptx
Operational research (OR) is a scientific approach to decision-making that aims to provide rational solutions to complex problems. It involves modeling real-world situations mathematically and using analytical and numerical techniques to determine optimal or near-optimal solutions. OR emerged in the 1940s to help Allied forces in World War II and has since been applied widely in business and industry. Key aspects of OR include quantitative modeling and analysis, interdisciplinary team-based problem solving, and using data and experimentation to evaluate alternative solutions and recommend optimal decisions.
Or approach and problem solving
Operations research is a scientific method that provides executive departments with a quantitative basis for decision making regarding their operations. The operations research approach involves three phases: the judgement phase where the problem is identified and a model is formulated; the research phase where data is collected, hypotheses are tested, and results are analyzed and generalized; and the action phase where recommendations are made, resources are allocated, and the decision is implemented. Overall, the process involves observing the problem, defining it, constructing a model, finding a solution, and implementing the solution.

OR Intoduction.pptx
Operational research (OR) is a scientific approach to decision-making that aims to provide rational solutions to complex problems. It involves modeling real-world situations mathematically and using analytical and numerical techniques to determine optimal or near-optimal solutions. OR emerged in the 1940s to help Allied forces in World War II and has since been applied widely in business and industry. Key aspects of OR include quantitative modeling and analysis, interdisciplinary team-based problem solving, and using data and experimentation to evaluate alternative solutions and recommend optimal decisions.
Or approach and problem solving
Operations research is a scientific method that provides executive departments with a quantitative basis for decision making regarding their operations. The operations research approach involves three phases: the judgement phase where the problem is identified and a model is formulated; the research phase where data is collected, hypotheses are tested, and results are analyzed and generalized; and the action phase where recommendations are made, resources are allocated, and the decision is implemented. Overall, the process involves observing the problem, defining it, constructing a model, finding a solution, and implementing the solution.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.

How to Manage Reception Report in Odoo 17
A business may deal with both sales and purchases occasionally. They buy things from vendors and then sell them to their customers. Such dealings can be confusing at times. Because multiple clients may inquire about the same product at the same time, after purchasing those products, customers must be assigned to them. Odoo has a tool called Reception Report that can be used to complete this assignment. By enabling this, a reception report comes automatically after confirming a receipt, from which we can assign products to orders.
How to Setup Default Value for a Field in Odoo 17

Requirements Elicitation: A Survey of Techniques, Approaches, and Tools
- 1. M AbdulTawab Khalil REQUIREMENTS ELICITATION: A SURVEY OFTECHNIQUES, APPROACHES, ANDTOOLS Book Chapter by Didar Zowghi and Chad Coulin University ofTechnology, Sydney, Australia
- 2. Abstract -1 ■ Requirements elicitation is the process of seeking, uncovering, acquiring, and elaborating requirements for computer based systems. ■ It is generally understood that requirements are elicited rather than just captured or collected. ■ This implies there are discovery, emergence, and development elements in the elicitation process.
- 3. Abstract - 2 ■ Requirements elicitation is a complex process involving many activities with a variety of available techniques, approaches, and tools for performing them.The relative strengths and weaknesses of these determine when each is appropriate depending on the context and situation. ■ The objectives of this chapter are to present a comprehensive survey of important aspects of the techniques, approaches, and tools for requirements elicitation, and examine the current issues, trends, and challenges faced by researchers and practitioners in this field.
- 4. What is Requirement Elicitation? ■ Requirements elicitation is concerned with learning and understanding the needs of users and project sponsors. ■ The objective of requirement elicitation is communicating these needs to the system developers. ■ A substantial part of elicitation is dedicated to uncovering, extracting, and surfacing the wants of the potential stakeholders.
- 5. Requirement Elicitation - 2 ■ The extensive process of requirement elicitation is sometimes called “trawling for requirements”. ■ Due to the trawling, we often get more requirements than expected which is good thing. ■ More recently the concepts of inventing and creating requirements have been used.
- 6. Requirement Elicitation Process 1. Understanding the Application Domain – examining the real world where the system will ultimately reside 2. Identifying the source of requirement 3. Analyzing the stakeholders 4. Selecting theTechniques, Approaches, andTools to Use 5. The actual Elicitation
