Building cars to customer order has been the goal of volume vehicle manufacturers since the birth of mass production. Eliminating the vast stocks of unsold vehicles held in distribution parks around the world represents potential savings worth billions, yet the current supply chain resembles islands of control, driven by production push. Despite recent advances in information technology offering total visibility and real-time information flow, transforming an” old world” industry to adopt customer responsiveness and build-to-order represents a significant step change. This requires overcoming barriers both within and between supply partners and at all levels of the supply chain. Yet, what are these barriers really like and how can the industry overcome them?

Social media are computer- mediated tools that allow people or companies to create, share or exchange information, career interests, ideas and the form of text, audio, video, image in virtual communities and networks. Twitter is a trendy microblogging service where many users procreate various status messages called tweets. Twitter is the fastest way to get real time information from the around the world. Tweets themselves are short and compact, like newspaper headlines. Analysis of sentiment is widely observed on numerous social networking websites. Nowadays, microblogging sites deed as a base to perceive the actual social opinion. The task of sentimental analysis is often known by many other names as opinion extraction, opinion mining, sentiment mining, subjectivity analysis.

An effective means of engaging spectators at live events involves providing real-time information from a variety of sources. Consumers demand personalized experience; thus, a single channel perspective fails. Modern entertainment must extend to spectator mobile devices and adapt content to individual interests. Moreover, such systems should take advantage of venue screens to engage in sharing live information, aggregated social media, etc. We propose a second screen application, providing each audience member a personalized perspective, involving mobile devices equipped with Wi-Fi, and spanning to venue screens in hotels, halls, arenas, elevators, etc. Such a system engages both local audience and remote spectators. Our work provides a case study involving experience from the deployment of such an application at the ACM-ICPC World Finals with audiences at the event and around the world. We analyze and categorize its features, consider its impact on the audience, and measure its demands.

Smartphone usage and data consumption have been sharply rising, and the disabled have also become smartphone users as the number of users of these phones has exponentially increased in recent years. The theme of this paper is how to create a better world for the disabled using the information that people want to exchange with each other between the disabled and the general population. The main goal is also to provide the information that they need from each other in a way that can be displayed on the map in real-time. We propose a new location-based SNS application for the disabled population (except those who are visually impaired or the disabled who are not able to use a smartphone) with three major characteristics of this application to be considered as follows: (i) the person uses a Social Networking Service (SNS) by constructing a friend matching system such as Facebook or Twitter, which are the most widelyused SNS in the world; (ii) the general population registers real-time information for a specific location on the map for the disabled population using SNS. This information with photos and messages is given and evaluated by users; and (iii) this system makes it easier to see that the menu in the GUI was implemented.

A simulation model called Trade and Transportation Multinetworks (TTMNet), constructed for the purpose of studying the effects of highly developed information technologies and logistic strategies (e.g., electronic commerce and real-time information) on freight transportation, is described. TTMNet is formulated as a multilevel product supply chain system that integrates the financial, informational, logistical, and physical aspects of transportation networks and allows interactions between each of these networks. Several simulators, including a freight traffic simulator, a supply chain decision-making simulator, and a pseudo-real-time information simulator, are involved. The freight traffic simulation is the focus of the present study. As part of this simulator, a learning model is set up to help decision makers estimate transportation costs on the basis of past experiences. Given the stochastic nature of these transportation costs and of the freight demands simulated by the system, the route for an origin–destination shipment may not remain optimal during a trip and may change along the way. A vehicle redirection procedure that handles this is presented. A numerical example is designed to compare a set of freight movements under two scenarios, one supported by and the other not supported by pseudo-real-time information on traffic conditions.

External Defibrillator

India is one of the most populous countries of the world. Due to over population, ignorance of health has been remained the major problems in India. For every one minute a death, oops in because of heart attack. Ambulance service plays an important role in saving lives. Its primary purpose is to give first aid to the sick or injured people in the emergency scene. To save a life is auspicious as well as precious. The idea here is to provide an intelligent smart health system using some sensors and microcontrollers; it will sense the body condition and send the data to the collaborated hospital’s database. This proposed idea gives us the development of a wireless-based system for pulse rate, blood pressure and temperature monitoring to be used in ambulance. By this, the real time information can be passed to nearby hospitals to alert them about the critical conditions over IOT. This hardware device is fixed inside the ambulance to sense the patient’s health, collect the info during a wireless device called node MCU and immediately pass the database to the hospital’s server by the concept of IOT. This may intimate the hospital officials and should answer the required actions to be taken to the person in emergency.

Nowadays enterprises are facing many challenges such as global competition and thin profits. Consequently, enterprises have changed their focus from cost reduction and quality improvement to quick customer response and innovative services. In recent decades, enterprises have developed advanced industry initiatives to improve efficiency by supply chain management. Effective supply chain management is not achievable by any single enterprise, but instead requires a virtual entity of integrated supply chain partners. They have the insightful commitment of real-time information sharing and collaborative management. Under such a circumstance, an initiative of collaborative management, Collaborative Planning, Forecasting, and Replenishment (CPFR), has recently been developed and implemented in the industry. In this paper, a case study of CPFR implementation in Rexon, Taiwan is conducted to provide a reference to other enterprises. Rexon's primary purpose of implementing CPFR is to strengthen its retail partnership, improve the accuracy of demand forecasts, and reduce inventory cost and other related operational costs.
