Traditional software designs for modern multicore processors, in which threads manipulate shared data, have limited scalability because synchronization of updates with shared data serializes threads and limits parallelism.

Synchronization of Data Between SQLite (Local Database) and SQL Server (Remote Database)

--Showkat Ahmad Dar and Jan Iqra

Dynamic interactive web applications have a database located on cloud or bigger physical servers for data operations and the modern need is the android or smart applications for such dynamic interactive applications. Development of android applications needs a local database within the application that should be synchronized with the main database later. SQLite is one of the reputed databases for android applications and is based on relational model. This paper aims at the development of synchronization tier of SQLite database that synchronizes the data between local database (SQLite) and SQL server located on physical servers using the concept of web services.

Computer-Aided Analysis and Design of Facility Layout Using Ant Colony Optimization

--Manash Bhuyan

Locating healthcare services and designing its layout in a community is not an everyday decision for decision makers. The facility must be located and designed to meet both current and future demand and it must be optimized. Designing the facility layout is generally a Quadratic Assignment Problem (QAP). In this paper, it has been proposed to carry out a study of evolutionary models such as Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) for selecting optimal layout design for a healthcare unit. A survey is conducted in Goalpara district, Assam, India. In this paper, only ants or patients are considered who give only one visit to a particular department in the healthcare unit. That is why the number of interdepartmental movements of ant is taken as 1. The proposed layout is finally compared with the existing layout of the healthcare unit and checked for the effectiveness of the proposed layout. The techniques applied under the present investigation will definitely help the decision manager to select the best optimized facility layout for healthcare unit.

Image, Audio and Video Watermarking Using LSB and DCT

--Gaurav Khare and Vijay Khare

Watermarking is used to verify the identity and authenticity of the owner of a digital image. It is a process in which the information which verifies the owner is embedded into the digital image or signal. These signals could be either videos or pictures or audios. There are two types of watermarking: visible watermarking and invisible watermarking. The two watermarking algorithms are explained with procedure of image, audio and video watermarking. The first algorithm is based on the Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) (in the frequency domain) and the second algorithm is based on the Least Significant Bit (LSB) replacement (in the spatial domain). The results are compared under different kinds of attacks.

An Analysis of Requirements Prioritization in Large, Medium and Small Software Organizations

--Sita Devulapalli, O R S Rao and Akhil Khare

Software products and solutions being developed at large, medium and small software organizations go through similar processes. Yet, due to the nature of the software developed, there are variations in the relevant parameters’ influence on requirements prioritization. The paper analyzes the requirements prioritization across 61 organizations with 106 participants. The study focuses on analyzing the common aspects and variations across large, medium and small organizations. The parameters used in practice and the order they used are identified across the organizations.

Automated Teller Machines (ATMs): The Changing Face of Banking in India

Bank Management
Information and communication technology has changed the way in which banks provide services to its customers. These days the customers are able to perform their routine banking transactions without even entering the bank premises. ATM is one such development in recent years, which provides remote banking services all over the world, including India. This paper analyzes the development of this self-service banking in India based on the secondary data.

The Information and Communication Technology (ICT) is playing a very important role in the progress and advancement in almost all walks of life. The deregulated environment has provided an opportunity to restructure the means and methods of delivery of services in many areas, including the banking sector. The ICT has been a focused issue in the past two decades in Indian banking. In fact, ICTs are enabling the banks to change the way in which they are functioning. Improved customer service has become very important for the very survival and growth of banking sector in the reforms era. The technological advancements, deregulations, and intense competition due to the entry of private sector and foreign banks have altered the face of banking from one of mere intermediation to one of provider of quick, efficient and customer-friendly services. With the introduction and adoption of ICT in the banking sector, the customers are fast moving away from the traditional branch banking system to the convenient and comfort of virtual banking. The most important virtual banking services are phone banking, mobile banking, Internet banking and ATM banking. These electronic channels have enhanced the delivery of banking services accurately and efficiently to the customers. The ATMs are an important part of a bank’s alternative channel to reach the customers, to showcase products and services and to create brand awareness. This is reflected in the increase in the number of ATMs all over the world. ATM is one of the most widely used remote banking services all over the world, including India. This paper analyzes the growth of ATMs of different bank groups in India.
International Scenario

If ATMs are largely available over geographically dispersed areas, the benefit from using an ATM will increase as customers will be able to access their bank accounts from any geographic location. This would imply that the value of an ATM network increases with the number of available ATM locations, and the value of a bank network to a customer will be determined in part by the final network size of the banking system. The statistical information on the growth of branches and ATM network in select countries.

Indian Scenario

The financial services industry in India has witnessed a phenomenal growth, diversification and specialization since the initiation of financial sector reforms in 1991. Greater customer orientation is the only way to retain customer loyalty and withstand competition in the liberalized world. In a market-driven strategy of development, customer preference is of paramount importance in any economy. Gone are the days when customers used to come to the doorsteps of banks. Now the banks are required to chase the customers; only those banks which are customercentric and extremely focused on the needs of their clients can succeed in their business today.
