Terrorism - Social Causes, Economic Impact in India and Possible Control Measures with Special Reference to Technology - driven Avenues.
B. L. Shivakumar
Abstract:
Terrorism is one of the major threats faced by many a nation across the world, big or small, rich or poor and developed or developing. The term terrorism is linked directly or indirectly to the socio-economic set-up of the affected region. The frequent terrorist attacks not only hamper the growth of the country, it eats into the very fabric of the civilized society. World peace at large seems to be in tatters. This article traces the varying facets of terrorism, viz the nature and causes, types, psycho-social influence of terrorism and the impact of terrorism. In addition to discussing the role of the civil society and police in confronting terrorism an attempt is made to focus the possibility of employing the technology-driven avenues such as GPS ,VoIP, GPRS, WiFi, Face Recognition, City Surveillance System and Natural Language Processing in combating terrorism. The article concludes that apart from resorting to all the state-of-the-art Hi-Fi gadgets/ facilities, there must be a sincere and co-ordinated attempt to improve functioning of democracy, responsiveness to public grievances, effective policing and economic development which go a long way to serve as anti-dote to terrorism.

Pricing, promotional deals and product availability all have tremendous impact on the position of your brand in the consumer's attitude set. The brands potential can only be fulfilled by continually reinforcing its perceived quality, up market identity and relevance to the consumer.

Impact of Global Financial Crisis on Indian Banking Sectors: Strategies for achieving sustainable growth.
Mr. Rabindra Ku Mohanty, Mr. Duryodhan Jena and Dr. Subhasmita Biswal
Abstract:
The World Financial System is now undergoing a Global Economic Crisis of staggering proportions. The root cause of the economic and financial crisis was the United States mortgage market by selling sub-prime mortgages to large number of consumers with inadequate income. These mortgages were bundled into securitized paper investments and sold by Wall Street to major financial institutions across the globe. When the mortgages became non-performing, these securitized assets were transformed into toxic acid infecting the entire worldwide financial system.
Indian Banking System comprises of Nationalized Banks, Private Sector Banks and Foreign Banks. This combination has been working marvelously since our liberalization process started in 1991. On the backdrop of recessionary trends in US, European and other developed countries, the under developed and developing countries including India have also experienced the pinch. During the worldwide recession that began in the later part of 2007, Indian Banking Industry felt immense pressure, but it could wither away those in a very systematic manner.

WTO: Revise Agreement on Trade Related Investment Measures.
Dr. M. Sugunatha Reddy and Dr. B. Rama Bhupal Reddy
Abstract:
An attempt is to be made for still more serious endeavors to bring an amendment in the agreement on 'Trade related investment measures' (TRIMS), at least for greater accommodation to the developing countries, demanded for sustaining development and macro-economic balances. But, this needs enough preparations to develop a consensus among the developing countries to press for the same in one voice.
The biannual ministerial conference of the World Trade Organization (WTO) held on December 2005 in Hong Kong. Much preparation are underway in all member countries tackling the issues and working on strategies for negotiations. India should not forget about the December 2001 award of the dispute settlement body of the WTO passed against it.

Power Quality: Problems, Protection And Solutions.
S. Gupta and Neha Bajpai
Abstract:
Power Quality (PQ) is the set of limits of electrical properties that allows electrical systems to function in their intended manner without significant loss of performance or life. The term is used to describe electric power that drives an electrical load and the load's ability to function properly with that electric power. Without the proper power, an electrical device (or load) may malfunction, fail prematurely or not operate at all.
Earlier, the main concern of consumers of electricity was the reliability of supply, which is nothing but the continuity of electric supply. However, these days it is not only reliability, the consumer wants; quality of power too is very important to them.
