Abstract

The Bhartiya (Indian) biocentric worldview and associated social responsibility as an integral part of society. Without any formal structures of social charity, the Bhartiya way of life is intertwined with social responsibility. Some of important concepts presented include: First being from Bhartiya traditional values and belief of nishkaam karm meaning selfless action. Second is the discourse of dharm-karm meaning the deeds and action for society which has not only been talked about but practised too. Third dimension is that of Sarve Bhavantu Sukhina meaning well being of all through cooperation and coordination, which has remained a guiding philosophy for ages.

An analysis has been done by comparing extrinsic ways of social welfare through formal CSR and Bhartiya social structure's capability of intrinsic sustainability in undertaking social welfare.

A discussion on how, Bharat (India) as a nation could evolve a framework to establish a balance between extrinsic and intrinsic motivations towards social responsibility. The paper concludes with a discussion on the need for inducting Bhartiya philosophies into the character of leadership and management.

Abstract

While it's perhaps un-PC if not unfair to characterize certain packaging as dumb, there are a number of packages that can be characterized as smart without hesitation. Smart packaging provides enhanced functionality that can be divided into two submarkets: Active packaging, which provides functionality such as moisture control, and intelligent packaging, which incorporates features that indicate status or communicate product changes and other information. It's a growing segment: According to a report from Freedonia, demand for active and intelligent packaging in the is forecast to expand 8.0 percent annually to $3.5 billion in 2017, well above total packaging demand growth. The report identifies food and beverages as the two largest markets for smart packaging in 2012, and projects that pharmaceuticals will be the fastest growing active and intelligent packaging market through 2017, with opportunities driven by the health care needs of the aging population. Advances in printed electronics or functional printing are boosting the potential opportunities for smart packaging by lowering costs. Printed electronics start-up Thin Film Electronics announced in October that it has built the world's first self-contained, integrated electronic tag system made using printed electronics.

Abstract

Print mottle is considered as one of the most important print factors while considering the visual impression of print quality. It is basically the result of uneven ink layer/non-uniform ink absorption across the paper surface and it is more prominently visible in middle tone images or areas of uniform colour such as solids and continuous tone screen images. Mottle pictures can also be observed visually and hence it needs utmost care and attention for enhancing the final print quality. Various grades of papers are used in the digital printing machines for a wide variety of print products and for the high quality print products coated papers are generally used. Effect of mottle on coated paper especially when using digital printing machines is the basic point which needs discussion and deliberation.
