Robotic assembly is an important process in the electronics and automobile industries in which small parts like pins etc. are assembled together. Humans are adept at assembly but advanced robots still find it difficult to assemble small components because during assembly there always exist errors in the positioning of parts. The error emanates from the robotic system itself or from the manufacturing processes used to make the parts. One way to perform successful assembly is by providing some compliance that can accommodate the errors in parts positioning. In this book, active compliance is provided in a SCARA by adding an IPMC compliant gripper as an end effector. Also IPMC patches and an IPMC compliant gripper is designed for flexible 4 bar mechanism to actively control the coupler path and deflection during assembly. The major advantage of IPMC is that it can be actuated by small voltage (0-3 V) which does not require sophisticated controllers. Hence, they are best suited for adding active compliance during assembly. This also proves the effectiveness of enhancing robotic assembly by adding compliance using IPMC.

Computer programme is an outcome of human intellect. The main motivation for its protection is to encourage the creative activities and inventions. The role of computer software is sine qua non in the economic and technological development of a nation. In the absence of efficient law to protect intellectual property in computer programme, there will hardly be any creative activity or inventions and the economic and technological development of a nation will come to a halt. it is, therefore, inevitable to protect and promote intellectual property in computer programmes. Software Industry plays a key role in the development of Indian economic but the industry has shown a decline in its development in the last few years. This work is an attempt to analyze the protection available under IP Laws to computer software in India and the challenges as well.

The ability to be creative is an important factor in the development of a young child's mind. By sitting down and watching TV for a couple hours, the child is entertained but is also not thinking. Information in spoon fed to them, so when it comes time to read a book in school, some can have a hard time grasping ideas. They are so used to having images, flash before them to provide understanding, they have trouble moving their eyes side to side together the information for themselves. With the television in front them, supplying amusement they may never stop to think that putting a puzzle together or reading a book could also be fun. They could actually become dependent on this one source of fantasy and never bother to create their own. A burning question raise here that TV influence the creativity of student? Creativity of student gets affected by matter that they watch on TV. It is the belief of the author that television is a significant force in the development of creativity and particularly so for students, who are in a formative stage of creative development.
