A Study on Punjab's Automobile Supply Chain

Springer Proceedings in Mathematics & Statistics

This book offers a comprehensive collection of 46 research contributions presented at the 13th International Conference on Soft Computing for Problem Solving (SocProS 2025): Artificial Intelligence for Viksit Bharat (that is, developed India), held at the Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee, Uttrakhand, India, from 24-26 February 2025. It discusses how machine learning, deep learning, optimization and intelligent systems are revolutionizing engineering and commercial practices through applications of mathematics. Covering diverse topics such as facial recognition security, cryptocurrency and blockchain technologies, automated trading, sustainable inventory management, personalized recommendation systems and IoT-driven smart solutions, the book highlights both theoretical advancements and practical implementations of mathematics across a wide range of disciplines.

This book also addresses emerging areas like green energy management, speech recognition, multilingual language technologies and climate analytics. With a strong emphasis on interdisciplinary research, the chapters integrate computational intelligence, engineering innovations and business applications, providing readers with a holistic view of current trends and future opportunities. This book serves as a valuable reference for researchers, practitioners, industry professionals and students aiming to leverage machine learning and optimization techniques for engineering and e-commerce challenges.

Applications of Mathematics in E-Commerce and Finance

Scientific Study from the year 2026 in the subject Business economics - Industrial Management, , course: MBA, language: English, abstract: In an era where supply chains define competitive advantage, this book delivers a compelling and data-driven exploration of supplier evaluation and selection in the automotive industry of Punjab. Grounded in real-world insights from managers and suppliers, the study unpacks how dynamic market conditions are reshaping traditional procurement strategies and demanding smarter, more resilient supplier networks. 

Adopting a robust descriptive research design, the book systematically investigates existing supplier evaluation practices and reveals that industry professionals are well aware of structured selection processes. However, it goes a step further by identifying critical gaps and opportunities for enhancement. Through rigorous Factor Analysis, the research uncovers ten essential criteria that influence supplier selection decisions, expanding the conventional focus beyond quality, cost, and delivery. Emerging dimensions such as Corporate Social Responsibility, flexibility, technical excellence, service, reliability, geographical location, and time are brought into sharp focus, offering a more holistic evaluation framework. 

A key highlight of the book is its analytical depth, where Dichotomy Analysis and the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) are effectively applied to identify and rank "smart suppliers." This integrated decision-making model provides a structured and practical approach for organizations to optimize supplier selection in increasingly complex environments. 

The findings emphasize the urgent need for organizations to institutionalize supplier evaluation by establishing dedicated departments and cross-functional teams. Continuous monitoring and performance assessment emerge as critical success factors for building sustainable and agile supply chains. 

Blending empirical rigor with practical relevance, this book serves as an indispensable resource for academicians, researchers, and industry practitioners. It not only enriches the academic discourse on supply chain management but also equips decision-makers with actionable insights to enhance supplier performance and drive organizational excellence.

This book explores how modern technologies-especially data analytics, machine learning (ML), and the Internet of Things (IoT)-are transforming supply chain and manufacturing operations. Bridging academic research and industrial practice, this book presents data as a strategic asset driving agility, efficiency, and resilience.Structured around four themes, it covers:<ul> <li>Foundational analytics and optimization</li> <li>Predictive and prescriptive analytics for proactive decision¿making</li> <li>Real¿time IoT data for workflow monitoring and control</li> <li>Digital Twins and Natural Language Processing (NLP) for modeling and interaction</li> </ul>Chapters include mathematical modeling, case studies, and implementation frameworks, with coverage spanning stochastic forecasting, reinforcement learning, anomaly detection, and semantic parsing of logistics documentation.Key benefits include its emphasis on integrated intelligence-blending ML, IoT, and simulation for real¿time, predictive insights. It also highlights scalability across industries, with tools adaptable to sectors like automotive, healthcare, and aerospace. Each chapter concludes with open problems and future directions, offering a roadmap for innovation in intelligent operations.

From Predictive Analytics to Natural Language Processing

Innovative Approaches to Inventory Control and Supply Chain Management

From the award-winning and Sunday Times bestselling author of Material World, a story that will take you from ancient civilizations, empire and globalisation through to the most influential geopolitical issue of our times. The story of trade is the story of humanity. From the copper in Mesopotamian ploughs to the silicon atoms within the chip inside your smartphone, intricate global trading networks have evolved over millennia to fulfil the distinctly human desire to buy and sell. Today, the volume of trade bestriding the planet is unprecedented. Yet, as fractures in the global order emerge - from an era of globalisation and untrammelled flows of goods and money to a new world of restrictions, intervention and, possibly, war - understanding this fundamental shift to the dominant economic consensus is more important than ever. Ed Conway tells this extraordinary story through these three commonplace products - bread, cloth and cars. With a compelling blend of economic history and first-hand access to key figures and institutions, he takes us from policy treaties to ground level to show us the people who make, ship and sometimes smuggle the products we buy on a daily basis. Discover the hidden, shifting trade world behind everything you see around you.
