Cultural diversity at the workplace is a very important factor affecting the human resource cycle at every stage starting from selection, interview to training and feedback and also the exit interview. The main objective is to study the impact of the various sub-variables (equal treatment and non-discrimination, human resource practices, communication processes, organisational commitment and organisational processes) taken into study on the main variable, that is managing cultural diversity in IT sector. This research is descriptive in nature and data is taken from 63 software professionals using structured questionnaire by convenient sampling technique. Data is analyzed by SPSS and it is found that all the variables taken under study showed a very strong correlation with the main variable which means that any increase in any of the stated variables will show a positive impact on the way cultural diversity is managed in an organisation. It is recommended that all employees should be aware of the existence of such diversity and they should try to make changes in the behaviour and attitude. The need is to turn from "accepting diversity" to "being aware of diversity". HR manager need to develop dynamic policies which can be easily administered to manage cultural diversity in an organisation.Keywords

This document contains concurrent and parallel computing seminar work at Lappeenranta University of technology; the topic focuses on super computer technologies, specifically Earth Simulator. The Earth Simulator (ES) is a high-speed super computer technology that was started as a research project in 1997 to better understand and predict the climate change and global environment at large. The Earth simulator is a large scale super computer which encompass of 640 processor elements bonded by a single stage full crossbar network.Every node element contains 8 vector processors, which uses one single shared memory of capacity 16GB.

Introduction: The common problem during the orthodontic treatment is debonding of brackets which leads to failure of orthodontic treatment. The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of four soft drinks (Coca-Cola, 7Up, Tropicana orange, minute maid apple juice) on the shear bond strength of orthodontic brackets. Aim: To evaluate the shear bond strength of orthodontic brackets cemented to natural teeth treated with various soft drinks Materials and Method: A total of 50 extracted human premolars were collected and stored in normal saline solution. They were cleaned and cemented with edge wise stainless steel brackets using composite. Then they were cycled in the said four soft drinks for 2 hours up to 7 days. The samples were tested for their shear bond strength using Universal testing machine (INSTRON) with a cross head speed of 0.5mm/min. The values were tabulated and analyzed statistically using ANOVA. Results: The lowest mean resistance to shearing forces was shown by the control group (18.74 ± 5.15 Mpa) followed by 7Up group (20.17 ± 6.76 Mpa), orange juice group (21.79 ± 5.15 Mpa), Coca Cola group (24.58 ± 11.68 Mpa) and highest resistance to shearing forces by apple juice group (26.04 ± 1.31 Mpa). There was no statistically significant difference among the groups. Conclusion: No significant differences were observed in bond strength of the teeth among the different groups suggesting that consumption of soft drinks after cementation of orthodontic brackets do not significantly affect in de-bonding the brackets.Keywords

Introduction: Restored teeth in the course of chewing or when exposed to thermal stimuli may lead to sensitivity. One of the significant reasons for sensitivity is microleakage. The repercussion of unaddressed microleakage leading to secondary caries and further on. The purpose of this study was to compare the microleakage of amongst different types of restorative materials which were silver amalgam and micro-hybrid composite resin with 7th generation bonding agent. And also to examine the effect of carbonated drink on microleakage. Materials and method: Forty extracted premolars were used for the study. Class V cavities were prepared on the buccal surfaces of the teeth, 1mm above the cementoenamel junction cervico-occlusal. Twenty cavities were restored with silver amalgam, and the remaining with composite resin. Group I and Group II both comprised of 10 teeth with silver amalgam restoration and ten teeth with composite resin restoration were immersed in the carbonated drink and water respectively for 15 minutes for ten days. The teeth were later immersed in methylene blue, sectioned and evaluated under a microscope. Statistical analyses used were Fisher's exact test. Result: Silver amalgam showed highest microleakage tendency in the carbonated drink, (P > 0.05). In water, silver amalgam had the least tendency for microleakage. However, composite resin did not statistically significant microleakage in both carbonated drink and water. Conclusion: The silver amalgam restorations showed microleakage in both carbonated drink and water. The microleakage was significantly higher in the carbonated beverage. On the other hand, composite resin restoration showed microleakage neither in carbonated drink nor water.Keywords
