Artificial Intelligence

Artificial Intelligence
Artificial intelligence is a part of computer technology that study about the how the machine can interact as like as human beings in the real world.As it is the part of the science it helps in finding solutions to complex problem in a more human-like fashion.Artificial research is highly technical and specialised, deeply divided into subfields that often fail to communicate with each other. Artificial intelligence is associated with different different part such as for solving different problems related with math and other physical part , to relate things faster with psychological part, cognition, biology and philosophy, and many others we can  insert artificial intelligence .Now even though the man couldn't create the self creating capability and self doing capability including with feeling in the machine somehow the machine is doing progress day by day due to which its demand is also increasing day by day. As now also some people don't know about artificial intelligence still working in the some part of computer .Some part where the artificial intelligence is working is self correction or showing incorrect mark (red bar) in Microsoft office (word, excel, etc) used, games (chess and others),creating virtual interface while doing some practical due to less harm is caused etc.
computers are fundamentally well suited to performing mechanical computations, using fixed programmed rules. This allows artificial machines to perform simple monotonous tasks efficiently and reliably, which humans are-suited to. For more complex problems, things get more difficult; unlike humans, computers have trouble understanding specific situations, and adapting to new situations.
         The working application of artificial intelligence are many some of them are military for autonomous control and target identification, to the entertainment industry for computer games and robotic pets, dealing providing many information by hospitals, bank , and insurances company to customer behaviour and detect trends.

Organization and management

                Organization and Management


Organization:Meaning
There are many organizations around around us. We continuously depend upon them for fulfilling large number of our needs. For understanding them,we however need to know how they are special, how they operate with help of people  and why. The following are some of the definitions of an organization which describe what they and their specialties are and what and how they perform to legitmize their existence in our society.
      An organization is
   A collection of interacting and interdepending people who unite to accomplish a common goal. It is,            therefore, a human association which represents a certain pattern of relationships among them.
   A structured social system having shared norms, values and beliefs where the members perform                      coordinated activities to achieve a common goal or a set of goals. An organization has a structured                setting which specifies relationships among the members. Functions in the organization are                              differentiated to be performed by different people and finally integrated towards attaining some                      predetermined goals.
    Organizations are the social units formed to accomplish some goals through the transactions of values.
          People obtain their econ mic, psychological and social needs in exchange o their contributions.
          Organization is a particular pattern of structure, people, tasks and techniques.
    As a system organization is a set of input, process and output through relatively standardized procedures for transactions in the market.

Evolution of Management

Scientific management
Scientific management school was pioneered by F.W Taylor in 1911 and carried in by others through the years (Henry Gantt, Frank Gilbreth, Lilian Gilbreth). It is a  totally revolutionary way of thinking about the problems of works and organizations. The major theme of this theory is that work could be studied in scientific way.He advocated an inductive, emperical, detailed study of each job to determine the one best way to organize work. The primary emphasis was application of scientific method to solution of managerial and organizational problems.
  • At the beginning of his career he found at Midvale Steel works that the incentive rates were cut by the employers, employees restricted the output (soldering), poor methods of training, lack of standards of performance and spirit of cooperation on the part of both management and labors. Concluding that Management practices of the time were inefficient, principles of management outlined the following points.
  • Rather than depending upon the rule of thumb, management must develop alternatives and evaluate them by making systemic and objective comparisons among them to see which the best is . Taylor and his colleagues believed there is one best way of to organize work and this could be a ascertained through scientific methods.
  • It focused on division of workers. Entire organizational works should be divide into managerial and managerial jobs. Planning should be differentiated from execution  functions.Vertical specialization would improve job performance. He proposed specialized  experts called foremen (eight different types), who were reponsible for specific of workers' jobs.

Business Environment

Business Environment

Business Environment Defined
         Environment is an abstract concept. It refers to a set of forces including events, situations, phenomena, objects, organization, individuals and groups that have bearing in the organizational affairs. Environment is the aggregate of these factors which influence decisions, functions, policies and goals of the organization. The components of the environment are present both inside and outside the organization. The components lying inside the organization. The components lying inside the organization are called internal components and those outside are known a s external components.

Internal environment
  • Organization missions, goals and policies
  • Managerial and organizational practices and culture 
  • Resource such as finance and human capital
  • Working procedures
  • Department structures
Organizational mission statements
An organization's mission statement describes what the organization stands for and why it exists. It explains the overall purpose of the organizations of its type.
  
A mission statement is more than words on a piece of paper; it reveals a company's philosophy, as well as its purpose. This declaration should be a living, breathing document that provides information and inspiration for the members of the organization. A mission statement should answer the questions, "What are our values?" and " what do we stand for?" This statement provides focus for an organization by rallying its members to work together to achieve its common goals. A good mission statement is precise in identifying the following intents of company :


  • customers-who will be served 
  • products/services- what will be produced 
  • location- where the products/services will be produced 
  • philosophy - what ideology will be followed 

Corporate social Responsibility (Management)

Corporate social Responsibility

We frequently see and hear about social contribution of organizations beyond their basic purpose and functions. They spend money for developing education, improving public health,conserving and promoting environment and controlling negative impact they are causing. They are open, honest and transparent toward stakeholders and provide reliable information to them. They believe and practise corporate governance, provide accurate information to government and pay tax.
   
The term society refers to all those individuals, institution and other entities that come on contract of the business firm and the tern responsibility denoted some kind of an obligation on the part of the business firm to  fulfill the demand of such individuals or institutions instead of as they help in business activities. So, social responsibility is the obligation of an organization to protect social norms values and rules of society within which the organization performs business activities to fulfill their objectives.   

Database management system

                     Database management system

Introduction to DBMS
A database-management system (DBMS) is a collection of interrelated data and a set of programs to access those data. The collection of data, usually referred to as the database, contains information relevant to an enterprise.The primary goal of a DBMS is to provide a way to store and retrieve database information that is both convenient and efficient. Database systems are designed to manage large bodies of information. Management of data involves both defining structures for storage of information and providing mechanisms for the manipulation of information. In addition, the database system must ensure the safety of the information stored, despite system crashes or attempts at unauthorized access. If data are to be shared among several users, the system must avoid possible anomalous results. Because information is so important in most organizations, computer scientists have developed a large body of concepts and techniques for managing data. These concepts and technique form the focus of this book. This chapter briefly introduces the principles of database systems.
1.1 Database System Applications
Databases are widely used. Here are some representative applications:
 • Banking: For customer information, accounts, and loans, and banking transactions.
 • Airlines: For reservations and schedule information. Airlines were among the first to use databases in a           geographically distributed manner terminals situated around the world accessed the central database             system through phone lines and other data networks.
 • Universities: For student information, course registrations, and grades.
 • Creditcardtransactions:Forpurchasesoncreditcardsandgenerationofmonth- ly statements.
 • Telecommunication:Forkeepingrecordsofcallsmade,generatingmonthlybills, maintaining balances on prepaid calling cards, and storing information about the communication networks.
• Finance: For storing information about holdings, sales, and purchases of finan- cial instruments such as stocks and bonds.
• Sales: For customer, product, and purchase information.
• Manufacturing: For management of supply chain and for tracking production of items in factories, inventoriesof items in warehouses/stores, and ordersfor items.
 • Human resources: For information about employees, salaries, payroll taxes and benefits, and for generation of paychecks.

Computer aided design

     Computer aided design

A major use of computer graphics is in design processes, particularly for engineering and architectural systems, but almost all products are now computer designed. Generally referred to as CAD, computer-aided design methods are now routinely used in the design of buildings, automobiles, aircraft, watercraft, space- craft, computers, textiles, and many, many other products. For some design applications; object are f&t displayed in a wireframe outline form that shows the overall sham and internal features of obiects. Wireframe displays also allow designers to quickly see the effects of interact the adjustments to design shapes.  Software packages for CAD applications typically provide the designer with a multi-window environment. The various displayed windows can show enlarged sections or different views of objects. Circuits  and networks for communications, water supply, or other utilities are constructed with repeated placement of a few graphical shapes. The shapes used in a design represent the different net- work or circuit components. Standard shapes for electrical, electronic, and logic circuits are often supplied by the design package. For other applications, a designer can create personalized symbols that are to be used to construct the net- work or circuit. The system is then designed by successively placing components into the layout, with the graphics package automatically providing the connections between components. This allows the designer t~ quickly try out alternate circuit schematics for minimizing the number of components or the space requirement for systems.
