In order to investigate the relationship between job satisfaction and its relation with organizational commitment of the staffs of the youth and sport office in Charmahal & Bakhtiari, 150 staffs in this office were selected as the samples. To collect data, there were used the job satisfaction questionnaires (Brown and Pierson, 1993) and the organizational commitment questionnaires (Allen and Mayer, 1991) by a descriptive- correlation survey. To analyze data, there were used descriptive- deduction statistics of the factor analysis(Pierson correlation coefficient). Due to survey results, all components of the job satisfaction such as supervision 0.774, work 0.896, salary 0.753, upgrades 0.826and general satisfaction 0.848 affect on the organizational commitment. There is some meaningful and direct relation between job satisfaction and its aspects with the organizational commitment. These results of this study, as other surveys, showed thatthe lack of the job satisfaction in every office causes forming non commitment toward the organization. The managers should be ensured about the job satisfaction among staffs in order to prevent some internal problems in the organizations.

The objective of this study was to analyze the country-specific attributes that either motivate or determines foreign direct investment (FDI) in a nation. A review of the literature on foreign direct investment revealed specific location attributes that tend to motivate direct investment in a particular location. In order to measure the impact of each of these attributes on foreign direct investment I created a database including each key attribute as a variable and measuring it across countries over a period of five years (2009-2013). The database contains all countries; the primary regions include USA, INDIA as well as a group of “Other” developed and developing nations. Analysis of the countries and variables and their affect on FDI flows. Unfortunately, I found GDP to be the only significant pull factor for U.S. foreign direct investment which indicates that large market size is a major investment determinant for multinational corporations. Other research on an industry-specific basis is necessary to gain a more in-depth analysis of specific variables. Foreign direct investment (FDI) in all over the world in general and in India in particular after the opening up of our market with the adoption of the policies namely globalization, privatization and liberalization has no doubt emerged as one of the most significant source and contributor of external inflow of resources and is one of the most crucial contributors to the capital formation despite their share in the world arena still catching up. When we talk about the term FDI we are talking about a bundle of resources that usually flow into a country including besides capital, production technology, global managerial skills, innovative marketing strategies and access to new markets. A cumulative and an exhaustive study of the overall scenario of FDI in India, FDI in USA in perspective of India investments of FDI in the country, share of top investing countries, sectors attracting highest FDI flows, sector wise technology transfer and approvals. We will also look at the determinants for attracting FDI in the country and also the causes for low flow of FDI and the mechanisms that can be undertaken to make our country attractive enough for investors and vice versa (for USA). This study entirely relies on secondary data collected after a thorough and exhaustive study of various websites, text books, journals, newspapers, magazines and great inputs form various professors and professionals specializing in this area.

Mobile Adhoc Networks (MANETs) as the name signifies is a network formed by collection of mobile adhoc devices (nodes). MANET is an autonomous decentralized wireless network where each node is free to move anytime anywhere. Routing always being the most researched topic in the cases of networks. Routing in MANETs is mainly of two types proactive and reactive. This paper presents a route discovery technique used in the reactive routing protocol i.e. AODV. Simulation results using NS2 are also shown which proves that this route discovery technique works better than the original route discovery used earlier.

The batch tests enabled determination of the degradation of the compounds at different temperatures and times, using various sludge types after characterization. Removal rates of cocaine (91.0%), benzoylecgonine (90.6%), heroin (97.9%), morphine (99.7%), 6 monoacetylmorphine (93.3%) and diazepam (99.7%) were measured after 3 hours equilibration; partition coefficients (Kd) for these six substances ranged from 1.2 – 68.1 Kg L-1. The degradation of compounds at 19 ± 0.5o C was relatively greater but it still occurred slowly at 4 ± 0.5o C, at between 5 and 10%. Work encompassed in this study directly measures illicit drug removal rates in laboratory studies for the first time. The application of batch studies in calculating removal rates in sewage works is an improvement over prior studies where assumptions on removal rates at STW were made.

This experimental work is conducted to find the best paradigms for emergency czommunication systems that are developed in disabled and patient health care. The system must be proficient in avoiding adverse effects due to any misinterpretation that may arise in mis-classification of input. The proposed system works well with the suggested paradigms for the extraction of signals from a wearable hand glove. Each extracted signal spectrum represents the corresponding and precise paradigm feature, suitable for efficient classification. The application of Fast Fourier Transformation on signals to extract these features along with the Linear Discriminant analysis (LDA) resulted in faultless results. The wider differentiation is found in paradigms that depend on finger bustle, and are found less in false acceptance and false rejection in turn in equal error rate. Hence the experimental results prove the feasibility of constructing the efficient and simplified emergency response system for the sick, elderly and the disabled using the well differentiated paradigms.
