Supplying a product to the most customers possible in an effective
and cost-efficient way is the primary goal of the sales and
distribution sector of a business, since the profits from sales are
responsible for the majority of an organization's revenue. However,
with countless brands vying for the customers' attention, the
ability to create a demand for a product and subsequently supply
that demand is often the key to a business's success. There is a
need for studies that seek to understand the complementary roles of
an organization's sales force and distribution team to ensure
relevancy in today's globalized world. Sales and Distribution
Management for Organizational Growth is a pivotal reference source
that provides vital research on the organization of sales and the
sales force, their geographic deployment, and distribution and
channel management including how to develop customer-oriented
distribution systems. While highlighting topics including expense
control, personnel training, and channel design, this book is
ideally designed for business students, marketing professionals,
executive members, finance analysts, operations employees,
academicians, industry professionals, researchers, and students
seeking current research on implementing sales strategy and
distribution systems to maximize profits and remain a marketplace
competitor.

Face recognition has been an active research area over the last 30
years. The face is our primary focus of attention in social
intercourse, playing a major role in conveying identity and
emotion. Although the ability to infer intelligence or character
from facial appearance is suspect, the human ability to recognize
faces is remarkable. We can recognize thousands of faces learned
throughout our lifetime and identify familiar faces at a glance
even after years of separation. This skill is quite robust, despite
large changes in the visual stimulus due to viewing conditions,
expression, aging, and distractions such as glasses or changes in
hair style. In this book, Laplacian faces which uses linear
projective projection is studied and finally enhanced before
accuracy. LPP is designed for preserving local structure; it is
likely that a nearest neighbour search in the low dimensional space
will yield similar results to that in the high dimensional space.
LPP's are linear projective maps that arise by solving a
variational problem that optimally preserves the neighborhood
structure of the data set. Finally the algorithm is modified to
yield better results in terms of time and accuracy.
The adoption of integrated nutrient management (INM) practice under
the rainfed condition not only enhance and sustain the fertility
and productivity of soil but also improve the nutrient and water
use efficiency besides sustaining the physical, chemical and
biological properties as well as over all soil health and
environment.The productivity of soil cannot be sustained with the
fertilizer alone as application of fertilizer alone has led to
deterioration in health and productivity of rainfed soils.
Application of vermicompost and farmyard manure coupled with
inorganic sources of nutrients proved beneficial in augmenting the
fertility status of the soil by improving soil characteristics
under rainfed conditions.Due to paucity of organic sources of
nutrients and their inability to meet total nutrient requirements
to sustain large scale productivity goals to meet the demand of
growing population, their integrated use with chemical fertilizers
is inevitable."
Gloriosa superba offers the possibility of using both seed as well
as tuber for medicinal purposes, but the advantage of using seed is
that it can be procured annually without disturbing the plant which
is more eco-friendly, whereas the use of tuber involves destructive
harvesting.It was found that the seed also possess the
colchicine.Seed and tubers are also used for treating gout,
rheumatism, cholera, typhus, Bright's disease, piles, gonorrhoea
and chronic ulcers in Indian system of medicines. The medicinal
properties of the drug prepared from it, are due to the presence of
alkaloids, chiefly colchicine (C22H26O6H), present in its tubers
and seed. Colchicine is used for treating gout, cancer control and
for inducing polyploidy in plants.Moreover, the species also have
anticoagulant properties and found effective for controlling the
larvae of various livestock parasites viz. Rhipicephalus microplus,
Paramphistomum cervi, Anopheles subpictus and Culex
tritaeniorhynchus. The flowers are used as cut flowers due to their
colour and shape.
