Cosmetic shop management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
Buying new cosmetic products is difficult. It can even be scary for those who have sensitive skin and are prone to skin trouble. The information needed to alleviate this problem is on the back of each product, but it's thought to interpret those ingredient lists unless you have a background in chemistry.
Instead of buying and hoping for the best, we can use data science to help us predict which products may be good fits for us. It includes various function programs to do the above mentioned tasks.
Data file handling has been effectively used in the program.
The automated cosmetic shop management system should deal with the automation of general workflow and administration process of the shop. The main processes of the system focus on customer's request where the system is able to search the most appropriate products and deliver it to the customers. It should help the employees to quickly identify the list of cosmetic product that have reached the minimum quantity and also keep a track of expired date for each cosmetic product. It should help the employees to find the rack number in which the product is placed.It is also Faster and more efficient way.

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.

Courier management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
It is now-a-days very important for the people to send or receive articles like imported furniture, electronic items, gifts, business goods and the like. People depend vastly on different transport systems which mostly use the manual way of receiving and delivering the articles. There is no way to track the articles till they are received and there is no way to let the customer know what happened in transit, once he booked some articles. In such a situation, we need a system which completely computerizes the cargo activities including time to time tracking of the articles sent. This need is fulfilled by Courier Management System software which is online software for the cargo management people that enables them to receive the goods from a source and send them to a required destination and track their status from time to time.
2. RESERACH
• Re ---------------- Search
Re means (once more,
afresh, anew) OR (back; with
return to a previous state)
Search means (look thorough or
go over thoroughly to look
something) OR (examine to find
anything concealed)
3. What Is Research?
Merriam-Webster’s definition:
1 : careful or diligent search
2 : studious inquiry or examination; especially :
investigation or experimentation aimed at the
discovery and interpretation of facts, revision of
accepted theories or laws in the light of new
facts, or practical application of such new or
revised theories or laws
3 : the collecting of information about a
particular subject
5. 5
SYSTEMATIC
because there is a definite set of
procedures and steps which you will
follow. There are certain things in the
research process which are always
done in order to get the most
accurate results.
6. 6
ORGANIZED
In that there is a structure or method
in going about doing research.
It is a planned procedure, not a
spontaneous one. It is focused and
limited to a specific scope.
7. FINDING ANSWERS
is the end of all research. Whether it
is the answer to a hypothesis or even
a simple question, research is
successful when we find answers.
Sometimes the answer is no, but it is
still an answer.
8. QUESTIONS
are central to research. If there is no
question, then the answer is of no
use. Research is focused on relevant,
useful, and important questions.
Without a question, research has no
focus, drive, or purpose.
9. Defining Research
A collection of methods and
methodologies that researchers
apply systematically to produce
scientifically based knowledge
about the social world.
(Neuman)
10. • Methodology:
Methodology & methods, two terms are
often treated as synonyms. Methodology is
broader and envelops methods. It is
understanding the social-organizational
context, philosophical assumptions, ethical
principals and political issues of the
enterprise of researchers who use methods.
11. • Methods:
Methods are set of specific techniques for
selecting cases, measuring and observing
aspects of social life, gathering and
refining data, analyzing data and reporting
on results.
12. Defining Research
Research must be systematic and
follow a series of steps and a rigid
standard protocol. These rules are
broadly similar but may vary slightly
between the different fields of
science.
13. Why Conduct Research?
You search the
Scriptures because
you think that in
them you have
eternal life;
It is these that
testify about Me.
To create new knowledge and/or
significantly add to existing literature
Reason = Purpose

What is Research Methodology?
Is defined as a highly intellectual human
activity used in the investigation of nature
and matter and deals specifically with the
manner in which data is collected, analyzed
and interpreted

existing hypothesis & theories
19. 3). Applied Research
• Aims at solving specific problems
• Aims at establishing policy programs
that will help to improve social life
• Types of applied research are action
research, social impact studies, cost-
benefit analysis, evaluation research

than one point in time or occasion
• e.g. Trend studies, Panel studies
21. 21
4A). Cross sectional Research
• It involves study of many cases at
one point in time or occasion
22. 22
5). Qualitative Research
• It is based on methodological principals of
phenomenology, symbolic interactionism,
hermeneutics.
• It aims at exploration of social world.
• Lazarsfeld: following elements are
there….exploration, relationship discovery,
establishing construct, testing hypothesis.
23. 23
6). Descriptive Research
• Usually it forms preliminary study of
a research project.
• It aims at describe social events,
relations and events.
• It provides background information
about an event in question.
24. 24
7). Classification research
• It aims at categorization of units into
groups
• To demonstrate differences
• To explain relationships
31. 31
14). Action Research
• It is application of fact findings to practical problem
solving in a social situation with a view to improve
quality of action within it, involving collaboration and
cooperation of researchers, practitioners and
laymen.
• It can be situational (diagnose a problem and
attempts to solve it), collaborative, participatory
(researcher take part in implementation of findings)
and self-evaluation (it involves constant evaluation
and adjustment of research and practice)
32. Messages
Research:
Should be about some problem that
encourages enthusiasm (for you) and
interest (for others)
Is often generated from the thought “what
we’ve got now/from the past isn’t quite
right/good enough – we can do better…”
Consists of work that leads to a meaningful
contribution
Generates, in some way, a better solution to
the problem
