This volume compiles recent research on phytoplankton primary
productivity (PP) in the Indian Ocean to provide an understanding
and consolidation of the driving mechanisms of PP variability in
diverse oceanic ecosystems globally. The book aims to facilitate a
holistic overview of the research carried out in this field in
various oceanic realms such as Indian coastal and oceanic waters
(estuaries, coastal waters, Bay of Bengal, Arabian Sea, Indian
Ocean). The contents of this book also address the United Nations
sustainable development goals i.e., SDG 13 (Climate Action) and SDG
14 (Life below Water), with a focus on the impacts of climate
change oceanic ecosystems. The book can serve as a comprehensive
baseline of information for researchers studying planktonic primary
productivity and biogeochemistry-related research in the
above-mentioned marine ecosystems and other global oceans. It is
intended to attract the attention of researchers, professionals,
undergraduate and graduate oceanography students, and policy makers
in the field of marine sciences.
The book looks into the recent advances in the ex-situ production
routes and properties of aluminum and magnesium based metal matrix
nanocomposites (MMNCs), produced either by liquid or semi-solid
state methods. It comprehensively summarizes work done in the last
10 years including the mechanical properties of different
matrix/nanoreinforcement systems. The book also addresses future
research direction, steps taken and missing developments to achieve
the full industrial exploitation of such composites. The content of
the book appeals to researchers and industrial practitioners in the
area of materials development for metal matrix nanocomposites and
its applications.

Morrison and Singh delve deeply into spiritualism of the Law of
Attraction as a means to achieving happiness and contentment that
goes beyond amassing wealth. Its a breakthrough, enlightening,
insightful book that truly explains how you can utilise the Law of
Attraction to achieve a lasting, successful life -- not just
financially, but on many different levels. The success of The
Secret and the Law of Attraction books had an unexpected negative
result -- it left some people believing the power of positive
suggestion is so powerful, anyone not successful only has their
self to blame. As expert spiritualists, Morrison and Singh knew
there was more to the Law of Attraction than wishful thinking.

Using speech technology with Microsoft Smartphone, it makes
Smartphone easily operable for visually challenged person. In this
technology, users input their requests in form of text commands and
receive speech output as response. This book proposes two solutions
based on speech technology which are helpful for visually
challenged person in operating a Smartphone. The solutions can be
categorized as- (1) Client -Server architecture (Text to Speech
Conversion takes place on server) and (2) On device solution (Text
to Speech Conversion takes place on smartphone itself i.e. no
communication delay). In this book, second solution- "On device
solution" is implemented which provides- audio access to PIM data
(Appointments, Tasks and Contacts), audio access to text messages,
audio access to current status of the system (current date time,
battery status, and network status), as well as it provides
facility to play music files. Additionally, it is also demonstrated
that how to make and receive a call, how to send and receive E mail
by the blind.
Deregulation and integration have led banks and financial
institutions into competition both on Assets side as well as
Liabilities side of the Balance-sheet, forcing them to assume
greater and newer risks in their quest for higher returns.Asset
Liability Management (ALM) has grown up as a response to the
problem of managing modern day business which is exposed to a wide
variety of risks in an environment where interest rates, exchange
rates and economic conditions are highly volatile.The maturity
mismatches and changes in the levels of assets and liabilities
cause both liquidity risk and interest-rate risk.The ALM process is
the only solution for banks to survive in this rapidly changing
environment where the composition and risk profile of their assets
and liabilities have a direct impact on their performance and
profitability.
