The researcher is also tried to optimize the decision making capabilities in competency building on decision making platform towards business optimization. This paper is also emphasized the success factors which directly affected to decision making capabilities in competency building of business organization.

The practice of interaction between parents and teachers is considered of utmost significance. No doubt, the present environment in the educational institutions of higher learning may not seem fit for such interaction. But if a small step is taken in this regard by involving the students and their parents through meetings of the parents and teachers, information to parents about the attendance of the students, information to parents about the performance of students, communication for disciplinary action against defaulters, feedback from the parents and suggestions of the parents, it will usher a new era in the qualitative aspects of an educational institutions of higher learning. The sample has been taken from 44 institutions of higher education in Haryana. 10 students from each institution were included in the sample. These 44 institutions include 19 urban aided institutions (13 co-ed. And 6 women colleges), 8 urban government institutions (5 co-ed. and 3 women colleges), 11 rural aided institutions (3 co-ed. and 8 women colleges) and 6 rural government institutions (3 co-ed. and 3 women colleges).

A coding scheme for OFDM transmission is proposed, exploiting a connection between pairs of Golay complementary sequences and second-order Reed-Muller codes. Using a realization of 16-QAM or 64 QAM constellation as the vector sum or two or three QPSK constellation respectively we construct 16 QAM and 64 QAM sequences having low PAPR. In this paper, we further examine the squared Euclidean distance of these M-QAM sequences and their variations. Our aim here is to combine the block coded modulation (BCM) and Golay complementary sequences to trade off the PAPR, the code rate, and the squared Euclidean distance of M-QAM OFDM signals

This study examined the effect of crude oil price on agricultural productivity in Nigeria between 1981 and 2010. Agricultural productivity (proxy as agricultural GDP) was specified as a function of factors such as exchange rate, crude oil price, capital stock, labour, land and fertilizer. Quantitative estimates, based on Augmented-Dickey Fuller (ADF) unit root test, Co-integration and Error Correction modelling, indicate that the exchange rate, capital, labour and trend are the major determinants of agricultural productivity in the long-run, while price of crude oil price is the most important determinant of agricultural productivity in the short–run. The results further shows that the error correction mechanism (ECM) indicated a feedback of about 112.5% of the previous year’s disequilibrium from long-run domestic agricultural production.

Business practices in Somalia have gone through many innovations. One of the most dynamic of these innovations has been mobile money. Different telecom companies provide different brands of mobile money. However, amongst EVC plus offered by Hormuud telecom is the most popular mobile money that people depend on their daily transactions in south and central Somalia. However, without effective functioning of central bank, limited education of business owners, unfavorable domestic environment, lack of business information; wide spread of mobile money adaptation by SMEs is likely to affect their financial performance. However the study sought to investigate the effects of mobile transfer on the financial performance of Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) in Mogadishu, Somalia. More specifically, the study sought to achieve the following objectives; to assess the extent to which mobile money transaction cost, number of mobile money transactions, financial literacy and mobile money transfer regulations affect the financial performance of SMEs in Mogadishu, Somalia. The study adopted a descriptive survey method which was conducted through administration of questionnaires. Data was collected from a sample of 146 SMEs in Bakara market using purposive sampling technique. Both descriptive and inferential statistics were then used to analyze data with the help of statistical package for social sciences (SPSS) version 21.0.The results of this study revealed that there was a relationship between mobile money transfer and financial performance of small and medium enterprises. On the basis of the findings of this study, it was concluded that mobile money transfer had positive effect on financial performance of small and medium enterprises. The study found that mobile money transaction costs, financial literacy and mobile transfer regulation, affected financial performance of small and medium enterprises. It was recommended that due to the effect of financial literacy and mobile transfer regulation, managers should ensure they build capacity in terms of financial knowledge and also liaise with the regulator on the various regulations to be adopted. It is suggested that the Central Bank of Somalia needs to come up with a complex regulatory framework on how mobile platforms can transact effectively in the financial system. The Central Bank of Somalia needs to build capacity amongst its employees so as to be prepared for mobile innovations especially where money transfers are involved.
