Steps in Research Studies | Variables in Research |
Literature Review is the documentation of a comprehensive review of the published work.
Purpose is to ensure no important variable is ignored that has in the past been found repeatedly to have had an impact on the problem.
Helps integrate information gathered - gives a framework for the investigation.

Scientific research and publication walk throughRoshni Mehta
Humble effort made in the form of this presentation will assist in the accomplishment of exploratory as well as result-oriented research studies. I shall feel amply rewarded if this slides proves helpful in the development of genuine research studies.
As a scientist, we must write, and, as an experimentalist, writing while you work strengthens your research. Writing a paper can be an integral part of observational science. Our manuscript can even be a blueprint for our experiments.

Drop Shipping in the Q-Commerce Era, A case study of Daraz. pk | Project by FAHAD HASSAN NOOR under observation by Mustafa Hannan Mehboob | UCP University Of Central PUNJAB
The research project considered dropshipping in the Q-commerce era in our national setting as
Pakistan's E-commerce industry is evolving, and the supply chain structure of Daraz.pk is
exactly the phenomenon to be studied. The article acknowledges that more entrepreneurs are
turning to dropship, which is market-driven and a way for entrepreneurs with little cash to set
into an e-commerce business. The importance of dropshipping as an instrument that dismantles
retailers from stock and warehouse concerns is emphasized here. The effort is shifted to
marketing and customer acquisition. This research will be about analyzing what Q-commerce –
assumed to be a non-conforming model that conforms to modern consumers’ demands of
instant service– has done to the economies and the dynamics in Pakistan.

While many firms are part of supply chain not all are managed in any truly coordinated fashion.
Many firms within supply chain wants to work independently.
Firms with large system inventories, many suppliers, complex product assemblies and highly valued customers benefit most from the practice of supply chain management.
For these firms, even moderate supply chain management success can mean lower purchasing and inventory carrying costs, better product quality and higher levels of customer service—all leading to more sales.
Creating and Managing Supplier RelationshipsFaHaD .H. NooR
Companies require their suppliers to deliver innovative and quality products not only in just-in-time (JIT) fashion, but also at a competitive price.
Good supplier relations can provide many benefits such as flexibility in terms of delivery, better quality, better information, and better material flows between buyers and suppliers.
Selecting the right supply partners and successfully managing these relationships over time is thus strategically important; it is often stated that “a firm is only as good as its suppliers.”
Purchasing departments contributes in product design, quality, cost of goods sold, manufacturing cycle time.
Ethical and Sustainable sourcing practices have become area of concern over the past five to ten years.
Global population growth, increasing environmental awareness, consumers desires for better corporate responsibility, and declining worldwide levels of natural resources has pressured companies to effectively implement these practices.

As Europe's leading economic powerhouse and the fourth-largest hashtag#economy globally, Germany stands at the forefront of innovation and industrial might. Renowned for its precision engineering and high-tech sectors, Germany's economic structure is heavily supported by a robust service industry, accounting for approximately 68% of its GDP. This economic clout and strategic geopolitical stance position Germany as a focal point in the global cyber threat landscape.
In the face of escalating global tensions, particularly those emanating from geopolitical disputes with nations like hashtag#Russia and hashtag#China, hashtag#Germany has witnessed a significant uptick in targeted cyber operations. Our analysis indicates a marked increase in hashtag#cyberattack sophistication aimed at critical infrastructure and key industrial sectors. These attacks range from ransomware campaigns to hashtag#AdvancedPersistentThreats (hashtag#APTs), threatening national security and business integrity.
🔑 Key findings include:
🔍 Increased frequency and complexity of cyber threats.
🔍 Escalation of state-sponsored and criminally motivated cyber operations.
🔍 Active dark web exchanges of malicious tools and tactics.
Our comprehensive report delves into these challenges, using a blend of open-source and proprietary data collection techniques. By monitoring activity on critical networks and analyzing attack patterns, our team provides a detailed overview of the threats facing German entities.
This report aims to equip stakeholders across public and private sectors with the knowledge to enhance their defensive strategies, reduce exposure to cyber risks, and reinforce Germany's resilience against cyber threats.

Levelwise PageRank with Loop-Based Dead End Handling Strategy : SHORT REPORT ...Subhajit Sahu
Abstract — Levelwise PageRank is an alternative method of PageRank computation which decomposes the input graph into a directed acyclic block-graph of strongly connected components, and processes them in topological order, one level at a time. This enables calculation for ranks in a distributed fashion without per-iteration communication, unlike the standard method where all vertices are processed in each iteration. It however comes with a precondition of the absence of dead ends in the input graph. Here, the native non-distributed performance of Levelwise PageRank was compared against Monolithic PageRank on a CPU as well as a GPU. To ensure a fair comparison, Monolithic PageRank was also performed on a graph where vertices were split by components. Results indicate that Levelwise PageRank is about as fast as Monolithic PageRank on the CPU, but quite a bit slower on the GPU. Slowdown on the GPU is likely caused by a large submission of small workloads, and expected to be non-issue when the computation is performed on massive graphs.
