In order to obtain the optimum parameters of total tailings flocculation settling, an optimization method of total tailings flocculation settling parameters based on the spatial difference algorithm was proposed. Firstly, the input and output factors of the whole tailings flocculation settling parameters are effectively analyzed, and the relevant factors affecting the flocculation settling parameters are obtained. Secondly, the flocculation settling velocity of the whole tailings is optimized by combining the spatial difference algorithm with the mathematical symmetry algorithm, and the optimal value of the flocculation settling velocity of the whole tailings is obtained. The experimental results show that anionic flocculation has the best flocculation settling effect on the whole tailings. The optimal settlement velocity is close to the actual settlement velocity, and the error of settlement velocity is less than 3.5%. The results show that compared with the traditional method, this method is an effective method to optimize the flocculation and settlement parameters of the whole tailings.

In the process of catering to the diversified needs and challenges, it is essential to develop professionally managed purchase departments for public and private sectors in India and Abroad. Technological upgradation is inherent process in development of any organization and country. Technological upgradation in order to enhance efficiency and productivity of manufacturing unit primarily depends upon the acquisition of technologically superior equipment for right applications. In order to cultivate the culture of technology improvement and transfer, every developing country, organization should analyze and track number of equipment purchased with the intention of technology transfer. However, there are lot of factors and obstacles in this process. The objective of this research paper is to conduct bibliometric study on purchase and technology Transfer with reference to industrial equipments and understanding different variables affecting technology transfer. This research paper has highlighted the necessity of conducting such an analysis by countries and organizations whose objective is to technologically upgraded. The methodology used in this research is bibliometric analysis of research publications from Scopus and google scholar indexed journals. Research reveals different factors affecting technology transfer through purchase of technical equipments. Procurement of new technology equipments requires change in the technical description and their approvals, trained manpower and adoptability for the change. Existing purchase processes focuses on continuation of operations rather than technological upgradation.

The government of Malaysia has introduced several national policies to facilitate industrialisation and technology development in the country throughout the years. However, the effectiveness of this policy in facilitating technology transfer has never be measured quantitatively. The objective of this paper is to review the evolution of Malaysia's technology transfer model and process since Malaysia gained its independence. This paper will look into the past and current national policies that have facilitated the technology transfer process in the country. A literature review was conducted on various frequently used technology transfer model since 1940s and compare it to the technology transfer process evolution in the country. From the analysis, the national policies introduced over the years have a direct and indirect effect on the technology transfer process in the country. However, the effectiveness of technology transfer model that was facilitated by the policy was never measured quantitatively. Further study needs to be conducted in measuring the efficiency of the technology transfer process that facilitated by a specific policy introduced by the government. The factors and sub-factors affecting the technology transfer process facilitated by this specific policy also need to be identified so that further improvement can be proposed.

The purpose of our study was to propose the measures necessary to promote industry-academic cooperation by investigating and analyzing factors affecting its performance Recently, the Korean government increased the budget available for industry-academic cooperation to help nurture industrial talent and promote industry-academic cooperation. In our study, the results of industry-academic cooperation for 48 universities that carried out the 5-year LINC development project from 2012 to 2016 were analyzed via panel analysis to identify any factors affecting the performance. Our analysis revealed that the organizational capabilities of the university—including the number of dedicated professors, the number of projects assigned, and the financial support—had a significant effect on technical commercialization. In addition, we found that the moderating effect of allied companies on the relationship between the organizational capabilities of universities and their technical commercialization was significant. However, the results of our analysis differed depending on university location. Universities in and around the Capital region benefited from their organizational capabilities and cooperation with allied companies. Based on the results of the analysis, we conclude that it is necessary to consider a variety of factors, including efficient support of the industry-academic cooperation budget and practical application of industry-academic cooperation systems.

Purpose: This study makes a comparison of the manufacturing sector and its determinants for India and selected Asian countries. It examines the factors affecting the annual turnover of randomly selected 154 firms in seven different industries of the Indian manufacturing sector. Methods: In this study, the firm’s annual turnover is used as a dependent variable. Labor productivity, age, investment on plant & machinery, annual expenditure on marketing, total employees, production technology up-gradation, shortage of skilled workers, skills to improve the process, use of hi-tech tool and technique in production activities, technology transfer abilities, in-house R&D expertise, quality certification, foreign collaboration, waste management capabilities and building capacity of firms are used as independent variables. Regression coefficients of explanatory variables are assessed using linear, log-linear, and non-linear regression models. Results: The study concluded that the firm's annual turnover has a significant association with technological development related variables, labor productivity, age, technology transfer abilities, in-house R&D expertise, quality certification, and waste management practices of firms. Implications: It suggests that Indian policymakers need to adopt a strong IPRs, education, and S&T policy in research institutions. India needs to increase R&D expenditure and researchers in research institutions. Research institutions should collaborate with the existing industries to discover more technologies and innovations for the manufacturing sector. All research organizations must set up technology transfer offices to increase technology transfer and commercialization. Furthermore, India needs to set up hi-tech firms to face global challenges. Originality: It uses primary data of 154 firms which are collected from seven different industries across Indian states. Thus, the study substantially contributes to the existing literature.    Limitations: This study considers seven different industries that have high diversity in socio-economic, science & technological and IPRs related activities, technology transfer, commercialization of technology, and association with research institutions. Therefore, this study cannot provide policy suggestions for a specific industry.
