Publication Design Thinking and Efficiancy in Knowledge Management Practices in Global Information Technology Companies(2025)This research aims to acquire the foundations of Design Thinking (DT), Knowledge Management (KM) paradigms, and their incorporation within multinational IT companies. However, the purpose here is to delineate the multi-faceted role of DT involving the efficacy improvement of KM practices, which in turn affects costs and risks, thereby impacting organizational effectiveness. Therefore, according to a quantitative study, the researcher obtained data from management individuals of IT firms using a structured questionnaire composed of a five-point Likert scale. Statistical processing was performed using SPSS, where ANOVA, t-tests, and Friedman dictated the research methods. The research findings reveal that DT is a key element of KM because it boosts process efficacy, facilitates innovation, and unravels risk. Data analysis revealed that DT addressed the costs incurred by KM through the implementation of a shared knowledge culture and collaborative problem-solving mechanisms. On the other hand, it helped in risk management through shared decision making, which enhanced risk reduction during project development. In addition, the results confirm that DT integrated into management practices may enhance technological infrastructure and the knowledge economy, leading to better organizational performance in IT companies. The research was demonstrated to be reliable and valid in different ways, such as testing it using Cronbach‘s alpha, construct validity tests, and robust conclusions drawn from the findings. DT is not just a methodology, but rather a quintessential management mindset that assists IT firms in scouting complex, knowledge-enriched landscapes with finesse, and a vision towards creativity. Future research should be undertaken as an overwhelming analysis of DT's influence of DT on a company's changes and DT inclusion with other technologies in the knowledge management sector. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Publication Service Quality of Mobile Application and Its Effect on Customer Perceived Value (CPV) in Planned Buying(2025)For over five decades, consumer buying behaviour has remained a primary area of interest for marketing researchers. To remain competitive in the market place; measuring consumer perceived value (CPV) in planned buying behaviour is vital for any organizational success. The convenience of usage, enhancement of smartphones and development in wireless communication technology has given a boost to e commerce. With changes in the market dynamics, companies has to understand the usage of mobile application in buying behaviour. The purpose of this study is to develop a measurement tool to assess various dimensions of service quality and explore their effects on Customer Perceived Value, Customer Satisfaction, and Planned Buying Behaviour. While prior studies have examined Mobile App Service Quality (MASQ), few have integrated both core (technical functionality, efficiency, reliability) and relational (customer support, billing, responsiveness) dimensions within a unified framework. This study addresses that gap by developing and empirically testing a model that assessing their combined impact of MASQ on Consumer Perceived Value, Customer Satisfaction and Planned Buying Behaviour in mobile commerce, specifically within the food and beverages industry. The study contributes to theory by extending MASQ research through an integrated framework and provides practical insights to design user-centric mobile applications that enhance consumer engagement and loyalty. The study hypothesis provides research results how Mobile App Service Quality (Core and Relational) positively influences planned buying behavior through Customer Perceived Value and customer satisfaction. This study employs a quantitative research approach, using a structured survey conducted among mobile application users, identified based on varying levels of consumer buying density across different areas of Bengaluru city. An initial pilot study involving 47 participants was conducted to evaluate model fit and construct development. This was followed by a main study with a larger sample of 696 respondents, which confirmed significant relationships among the five constructs: Core Service Quality, Relational Service Quality, Customer Perceived Value, Customer Satisfaction, and Planned Buying Behaviour. The main study empirically validated the Mobile Application Service Quality effects on Customer Perceived Value (CPV) in Planned Buying Model. Mobile application used for food & beverages industry based on web report data.ai State of Mobile 2022. Which as ranked the application based on New application downloads, Application store spend, Daily time spent per user. Planned Buying Behaviour (PPI) serves as the outcome variable, and the findings of the study offer empirical evidence to support this relationship of Service Quality effects on Customer Perceived Value (CPV) in Planned Buying Model. Core M service quality is related to the extent to which M-application is useful due to its features related to content quality, Navigation and Visual designs, System Reliability and Connection Quality and Efficiency. Relational M-service quality is related to the extent to which M-application is useful due to factors related to Contact, Billing and Responsivenenss. Consumer perceived value (CPV) is an individual consumer perception about Mobile applicationService Quality based on the quality, emotional and comparative factors resulting in a strong inclination towards the product purchase. Customer satisfaction (CS) is typically interpreted from two distinct perspectives. The ransaction-specific perspective focuses on a customer‘s satisfaction based on a single, recent purchase experience. In contrast, the cumulative perspective views satisfaction as an overall assessment formed through multiple interactions over time, rather than any isolated event. Research suggests that the cumulative approach offers a more reliable measure of a firm's service performance and is better at predicting post purchase behavior. In the context of mobile commerce, Lin and Wang (2006) described customer satisfaction as a user‘s overall reaction to their cumulative experiences within the mobile commerce. Findings demonstrate that both core and relational service quality dimensions positively influence planned buying behaviour through CPV and satisfaction. The results offer empirical support for the proposed model while delivering actionable implications for firms seeking to strengthen competitiveness in the mobile commerce landscape. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Publication Application of Soft Computing Techniques in Reactive Power Management(2025)The challenge of meeting the massive extra power needs of the electric power generating unit derives from the emerging countries' fast industrialization and population growth. One of the difficult operational issues in deregulated electricity systems is congestion control. When more electricity is scheduled or flows via transmission lines and transformers than what is physically possible, the situation is known as transmission congestion. The method of preventing or relieving congestion is called congestion management. Power electronics have advanced to the point that high-rated power electronic equipment may be designed for high voltage applications. Due to the increase in demand, good operating practices and optimum energy efficien cy requirements, and the high cost of new project development, some problems may a rise. These challenges include overload and excessive voltage fluctuations in transmis sion lines, voltage sags, voltage unbalance, poor power quality, reliability issues, and voltage problems. Flexible AC transmission systems (FACTS) can be used to manage power transmission because they can significantly improve the static and dynamic pe rformance of the power system. To achieve the best results, the placement and capacity of FACTS devices need to be adjusted. This article describes the types and functions of SVC devices. The aim of th e RPM problem is said to improve the power curve and minimize the overall power lo ss. In terms of RPM, generator bus voltage level, transformer tap configuration and ca pacitor reactive power reactors are considered as important factors. In addition, hybrid methods, mathematical methods, analytical methods and main eight metaheuristic opt imizations proposed and compared in previous studies are discussed. Voltage stability and voltage profile are negatively impacted by a decrease in reactive power in the power system. Reactive power deficiencies are the main cause of significant voltage loss. A cascading failure will result from the overload continuing as the current rises and affecting further lines. This results in a voltage decrease in gearbox setups or the disconnecting of some generators. As this process proceeds, there is a significant probability of elemental blackouts. An essential component in the process of moving electrical power from generating facilities to load centres is the electric power transmission system. To satisfy the need for electrical load in the future is based on figuring out where new transmission routes should be placed optimally during the planning phase. Soft computing is a branch of computational intelligence that uses nature-inspired and human-like reasoning approaches to solve complex, nonlinear, and uncertain problems, making it well-suited for Reactive Power Management (RPM) in power systems. It includes techniques such as Fuzzy Logic (FL), Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs), Evolutionary Algorithms (like GAs), and Swarm Intelligence methods (like PSO and ACO). These techniques, either standalone or hybrid (e.g., PSO+GWO, BOA+PSO), offer flexibility, adaptability, scalability, and robustness under uncertainty. In RPM, they enable optimal control, efficient device placement, and improved system stability and cost-effectiveness, outperforming traditional methods. Arithmetic programming techniques are frequently ineffective in handling limited optimization situations, while analytical approaches lack the calculation precision necessary to determine the best distribution of FACTS devices. On the other hand, meta-heuristic techniques are population-based, stochastic optimization algorithms that are very effective when applied to a discrete, multimodal, highly limited system. The research work presented in this thesis is based on implementation of a hybrid metaheuristic algorithm of Butterfly Optimization Algorithm, Grey wolf optimization and Particle Swarm Optimization for optimal placement and utilization of shunt based FACTS controller- Static Var Compensator (SVC). - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

A teacher can assist students with a variety of interests, talents, and learning preferences by implementing one of the available frameworks. To increase your student's chances of succeeding in the classroom, whether you work in the education sector as a teacher or another professional, you might find it helpful to learn about cutting-edge instructional practices. Teaching techniques are approaches that teachers can use to make learning easier and pique students' motivation and interest in the material. Different teaching philosophies include game-based study, differentiated study, lecture-based method, technology-based pedagogy, group and individual study, inquiry-based study, kinesthetic study, game-based study, and expeditionary study. You can enhance your methods by trying out various teaching techniques while presenting the same course, communicating with other educators to acquire their insights, and being flexible. Due to the quick changes in the modern world, the Education System is currently dealing with a wide range of problems. An excellent teaching strategy helps students overcome their preconceptions and motivates them to study by putting them in a situation where they start to believe that they are the ones who come up with the solutions and who are responsible for the change. Professors that are respected both nationally and locally serve as ideal role models for educators who are enthusiastic about effective teaching methods of professional courses, providing them with ideas, insights, and the best teaching methods.(Journal of Advances in Medical Education & Professionalism v.4(4); 2016 Oct PMC5065908) - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Publication Learning of Languages for Quality Teaching in Higher Education: Realization of NEP 2020 Vision(Anukarsh - A Peer-reviewed Quarterly Magazine, 2023-06)Language is one of the most marked, conspicuous, as well as fundamental characteristics of the faculties of man. Language is a system of sounds, words, patterns, etc., used by humans to communicate thoughts and feelings. Language is a system of communication which consists of a set of sounds and written symbols which are used by the people of a particular country or region for talking or writing in. The importance of language for man and society cannot be minimized. Language is not only a mode of communication between individuals but also a way for the expression of their personality. Man is remarkably distinguished from animals not only in his use of language but also in his thought process. This use has been termed by Chomsky as “the creative aspect of language; Chomsky suggests that “the normal use of language is innovative, in sense that much of what we say in the course of normal language use is entirely new, not a reception of anything that we have heard before and not even “similar” in “pattern” to sentences or discourse that we have heard in the past” (Chomsky, p.10). Language has its true being in conversation in the exercise and promotion and understanding between peoples. Language should not be a means to impose or transmit my will to another. Above all, language is a living process in which a community of life is lived out. It should be thought that human language as a special and unique living process, in that in linguistic communication, world and human worldview is disclosed. This disclosure, this function of language means that language does not draw attention to itself but transparent to the realities that are manifested through it. Since learning a language is part of our knowledge, it becomes one of the key factors in competitiveness. In the advanced industrial society of today, the basic knowledge of a single or more language has become indispensable. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
