Win-Win business ethics engagement and corruption reform methods
No full textNo abstractThere has been comparatively less work done on how to effectively engage with and reform unethical and corrupt behaviors in business world; behaviors that can be both legal and illegal. According to the author, however, the research that has been done is very encouraging. Effective business ethics methods can be very profitable and sustainable. Effective business ethics methods can be learned and taught. Further, effective business ethics methods can help cause and stimulate better and greater socioeconomic development. In this paper, the author first considers nine types of effective business ethics engagement and corruption reform methods. Second, he examines in some detail six win-win methods with real case examples. Third, theoretical foundations for win-win methods and why win-win ethical business practices and relationships are profitable and sustainable are considered. Fourth, he discusses strengths and limitations of win-win methods. For the author, win-win methods can help facilitate ethical and mutually prosperous association
Design and Construction of Infrared Remote Controller for Multiple Home Appliances
No full textThe infrared (IR) remote control devices are used to operate in the most of modern household applications, such as television, DVDs, Set top box, Home theatre and air conditioner etc. With the development of the society and smart home, there are more and more home appliances and more infrared remote control devices used to operate them. A single IR remote controller can’t be used to manipulate the different kinds of home appliances; as they are not compatible which leads to the wastage of resources. This paper propose an applications and design of Arduino based IR remote control system, which can control multiple devices, code and decode all of the infrared remote control protocol. In this system, we are using IR based wireless communications for controlling home appliances. Arduino is used for controlling whole the process. The remote control transmits a beam of light using an infrared light emitting diode; this light is picked by the IR sensor. After receiving signal from IR remote, Arduino sends related signal to relays which are responsible for switching ON or OFF of the home appliances through a relay driver. The circuit present in this work is designed to control the six electrical devices such as TV, fan, motor, electric bulb, light tube, and CFL to turn on or turn off from a distance using remote control. The program for this project is written in C language and uploaded into the memory of the microcontroller on Arduino board by Arduino IDE window software
Edge contraction and cop-win critical graphs
No full textThe problem is to determine the number of ‘cops’ needed to capture a ‘robber’ where the game is played with perfect information, the different sides moving alternately. The cops capture the robber when one of them occupies the same vertex as the robber at any time in the game. A copwin graph is one in which one cop can always capture the robber. A graph is cop-win edge-critical with respect to edge contraction (CECC) when the original graph is not cop-win, but the contraction of any edge results in a cop-win graph. In this paper, classes of CECC graphs are determined, and k-regular CECC are characterized for k ≤ 4
Strategic Corporate Negotiations: A framework for Win-Win agreements
No full textExploring the concept of win-win agreements, this book analyses how they pose an important challenge for entrepreneurs, managers and advisors involved in complex negotiations among firms. Providing an overview and discussion of existing literature, the author further develops a theoretical framework for analysing corporate negotiations, and illustrates how this can be implemented in real-life situations. This book presents an empirical case study from the automotive industry and analyses the negotiation between Fiat Chrysler in 2009, offering practical strategies for those involved in corporate negotiations. Presenting how win-win agreements can improve competitive advantage, this book will be an invaluable read for practitioners and scholars alike.</p

Étude du mobilier céramique de deux cimetières de la fin du deuxième au début du premier millénaire avant notre ère en Haute Birmanie : technologie, typologie et chronologie
No full textThis paper concerns the ceramic assemblages of two late second to early first millennia BC cemeteries, Oakaie 1 and Nyaung’gan, located in the Sagaing region of Upper Myanmar. In total, sixty-one graves have been excavated. Various grave goods were recovered in addition to the pottery, numerous classes of which exhibited stylistic similarities from one site to the other. Based on this observation, this article questions the existence of shared cultural traditions and interactions between the populations using the two cemeteries. A technological analysis of pottery was conducted, allowing us to classify pottery into socially significant techno-stylistic groups. For each site, the detailed analysis of techniques and styles permits the characterization of different groups of pottery which, examined in the light of the bioarchaeological and stratigraphic data, can be used to distinguish burial phases and to refine the chronology.Cet article propose de s’intéresser à deux cimetières estimés de la fin du deuxième au début du premier millénaire avant notre ère et situés dans la région de Sagaing en Haute Birmanie : Oakaie 1 et Nyaung’gan. Au total, soixante-et-une tombes ont été mises en évidence. Elles ont livré un riche matériel archéologique, dont du mobilier céramique qui présente des similitudes stylistiques d’un site à l’autre. Partant de ce constat, se sont alors posées les questions de l’existence ou non de traditions culturelles partagées et d’interactions entre les populations des deux cimetières. Grâce à une analyse technologique du matériel céramique, qui offre la possibilité de classer les poteries en groupes techno-stylistiques socialement significatifs, nous avons identifié plusieurs traditions. Pour chaque site, l’étude détaillée des variations techniques et stylistiques a permis de caractériser différents groupes de poteries qui, examinés à la lumière des données bioarchéologiques et de terrain, peuvent être utilisés pour distinguer des phases d’inhumation. Nous avons alors comparé la totalité des groupes céramiques afin d’évaluer les liens entre les deux sites et proposer des hypothèses permettant de questionner leur contemporanéité et d’affiner la chronologie.Favereau Aude, Pryce Thomas Oliver, Win Tin Tin, Champion Louis, Win Thu Thu, Myat Myat Htwe Kalayar, Mar Aye Aye, Pradier Baptiste, Willis Anna.

Population Abundance and Reproductive Biology of Sillaginopsis panijus (Hamilton-1822)
No full textAbstract
The present study was conducted the seasonal abundance and reproductive biology of
Sillaginopsis panijus from January 2018 to December 2019. Total population were 1644.42 ±
314.42 individuals in 2018 and 1562.5 ± 239.28 individuals in 2019.The largest individuals of
captured 37 cm of male and 43 cm of female. The sex ratio of male to female (1:2) was
observed. The reproductive cycle had been identified through the seasonal variation of the GSI,
HSI and K. Significant but reverse correlation was observed for GSI to HSI and K. The highest
GSI value of male was recorded in August 6.38% whereas female GSI is highest in August
19.46%. Similar pattern of spawning periods were found in both sexes of Sillaginopsis panijus.
Six histological stages of gonadal development were recorded
Small constructed wetlands
No full textPresented at Water for agriculture and wildlife and the environment: win-win opportunities: proceedings from the USCID wetlands seminar on June 27-29, 1996 in Bismarck, North Dakota.Constructed wetlands were considered as an alternative to manage irrigation return water in an area of the upper Snake River Basin in south-central Idaho. A four-year demonstration project was undertaken to examine practical issues and performance characteristics encountered to effectively integrate wetland features with irrigated agriculture operations. The project activities included sites studies to evaluate feasibility and potential environmental consequences, wetland design and construction, and follow-up monitoring of the water quality and habitat values associated with the site features. Early review of results appears positive, although additional monitoring is needed to assess conditions as the wetland become more fully established. The project results are intended to be applicable to other wetland sites in the area and generally contribute to sustainable water use and more effective watershed management approaches
