Seeking to build on related successes in other information technology sectors, the government of India has signaled its intent to transform the country's performance in microelectronics. Facing a young and expanding population, India needs to create manufacturing jobs in promising industries, and it needs to build out from its limited high-technology base. Semiconductors are foundational in this regard. Today, there is much discussion within India about the link between semiconductors and innovation in bio-electronics, alternative energy production and storage, and various micro- and nano-devices. The government's contemporary attempt to promote the building of infrastructure for manufacturing and applied research in semiconductors highlights reasons for hope. So too does the remarkable talent now available in the Indian diaspora. But significant impediments, especially in postsecondary and graduate-level education, must still be overcome if the necessary human capital is to be developed, equipped, and deployed effectively.

Manufacturing imperatives of the electronics industry require technological capability across components to develop a strong supply base. With domestic value addition being less than 25%, catapulting domestic production capability would necessitate promoting productivity enhancing innovations at the firm level, particularly in design and development capabilities. For assessing the technological orientation of the electronics manufacturing Industry, the empirical investigation of this article focuses on two important channels of influence, namely imports and firm productivity and exports and firm productivity under a liberalised regime, thereby identifying the determinants of production growth of electronics manufacturing in India. The econometric analysis has underlined the low technological capability of manufacturing firms. While the import of raw material is significant for both domestic-oriented and export-oriented firms, import of capital goods is significant for only export-oriented firms. Further, R&D expenditure is low which is statistically significant. Taken together, these results highlight that high imports are on account of domestic non-availability, and imports have substituted domestic R&D that underlines low technological capability of Indian firms. Further, export-oriented firms have technologically advanced products possibly to face the competitive pressures in the international market. To supplement these insights, the descriptive analysis focused on the trade orientation of the sample firms and cost structure in determining their market behaviour. The share of firms engaging in domestic activity surged post liberalisation, suggesting that the focus was primarily on fast expanding domestic market. As such, import engagement has increased significantly but export engagement has decreased. This suggests that imports have not facilitated export growth but only bridged the gap of non-availability of inputs domestically. The analysis of cost structure points to a decline in the share of capital goods and R&D, both implying lack of technological capability of the firms. Further, increasingly firms are turning to trading, that is, import of finished goods. As such, to promote a conducive manufacturing ecosystem, there is a need to promote technological capability and encourage export orientation of the firms. JEL Codes: F10, F14, L63

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to identify and build a hierarchy of the factors influencing competitiveness of electronics manufacturing industry (EMI) at the industry level and apply the interpretive structural modeling, fuzzy Matriced’ Impacts Croisés Multiplication Appliquée á UN Classement (i.e. the cross-impact matrix multiplication applied to classification; MICMAC) and analytic hierarchy process (AHP) approaches. These factors have been explained with respect to managerial and government policymakers’ standpoint in Indian context. Design/methodology/approachThis study presents a hierarchy and weight-based model that demonstrates mutual relationships among the significant factors of competitiveness of the Indian EMI. FindingsThis study covers a wide variety of factors that form the bedrock of the competitiveness of the EMI. Interpretive structural modeling and fuzzy MICMAC are used to cluster the influential factors of competitiveness considering the driving and dependence power. AHP is used to rank the factors on the basis of weights. Results show that the “government role” and “foreign exchange market” have a significantly high driving power. On the other hand, the “capital resource availability” and “productivity measures” come at the top of the interpretive structural modeling hierarchy, implying high dependence power. Research limitations/implicationsThe study has strong practical implications for both the manufacturers and the policymakers. The manufacturers need to focus on the factors of competitiveness to improve performance, and at the same time, the government should come forward to build a suitable environment for business in light of the huge demand and frame suitable policies. Practical implicationsThe lackluster performance of the industry is because of the existing electronics policies and environmental conditions. The proposed interpretive structural modeling and fuzzy MICMAC and AHP frameworks suggest a better understanding of the key factors and their mutual relationship to analyze competitiveness of the electronics manufacturing industry in view of the Indian Government’s “Make in India” initiatives. Originality/valueThis paper contributes to the industry level competitiveness and dynamics of multi-factors approach and utilize the ISM–fuzzy MICMAC and AHP management decision tool in the identification and ranking of factors that influence the competitiveness of the EMI in the country.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to investigate, validity and reliability analysis on existing Lean manufacturing (LM) frameworks when applied to Indian organizations. LM is one of the best manufacturing strategies that are used by manufacturing plant managers to improve manufacturing capabilities. Design/methodology/approach – In the present research work, a questionnaire-based survey was used to examine 35 LM frameworks. The study targeted respondents ranging from top- and middle-level management personnel in Indian manufacturing industry. The sample includes organizations in a variety of industries ranging from automobile, electronics, engineering, process and textile industries products. The survey tool was prepared with team of 12 members i.e. six academicians and six professionals from manufacturing industry environment. The study received 186 responses from various sectors of manufacturing industry, 180 surveys were usable resulting in a response rate of 23.90 per cent. Factor analysis was conducted to check unidimentionality of the framework. Cronbach’s alpha is calculated to find reliability of each framework’s. Lastly, frequency analysis was used to recognize familiar constructs of LM on the chosen framework. Findings – This study has identified that most of the LM frameworks revealed a high level of reliability. When the study has examined further advance about unidimensionality with respect to the construct, i.e. the LM it measures, it confirmed 11 frameworks were revealing unidimensionality. The frequency analysis was evident that a greater part of the constructs has a high mean score and mode. Finally, the research concludes that there is requirement for a novel framework to Indian manufacturing industry to stay in competition with global manufacturing industries. Research limitations/implications – Cross-sectional data from manufacturing industries and India (only one country) is used with sample size restricted to 180 only, and it would be interesting to test these frameworks for more than one industry sector and country. Practical implications – The present work tries to find the suitability of the presented LM frameworks to Indian manufacturing industry sector. The authors hoped that the present research would give the information to the management to execute the suitable LM framework in their firm. Originality/value – The present work tries to find the suitability of the presented LM frameworks to Indian manufacturing industry sector. The authors hoped that the present research would give the information to the management to execute the suitable LM framework in their firm.

The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic is a completely unexpected shock to the economy. The Government of India has announced measures like food security and healthcare measures, incentives to a few sectors, tax deadline extensions, housing loan moratorium scheme, time extension for electricity bill payment, cancellation, postponement of examinations, etc. to tackle this pandemic situation. With the extension of the country wide lockdown, the global economic downturn and related disruption of demand and supply chains, the economy is likely to face a protracted slowdown. This study focused on the impact of the pandemic on various sectors like manufacturing industries, banking, real estate, textile, agriculture, education, healthcare, electronics, and services. The effect of COVID-19 is going to last for quite some time, even though primary activities and industries have resumed their routine work.

Full textAbstract:
The significance of technology-intensive industries for the growth and competitiveness of the manufacturing sector has been well documented. Many studies have attempted to define and classify the industries based on their technology intensity. However, very few attempts have been made in this respect from the vantage point of developing counties. In an attempt to fill this gap in the empirical literature, this article examines the technology intensity of organized manufacturing industries in India. A composite index of technology intensity of industries is calculated using the method of principal component analysis. The results of our analysis reveal poor performance of industries in terms of their technology intensity. It was found that only four industries in the Indian organized manufacturing sector spend more than 1 per cent of their sales on R&D. The highest score of ‘composite technology intensity index’ (2.63) is for the industry manufacturing electronic components. This score is, however, found to be far below the level prescribed by OECD for an industry to be categorized as ‘high-tech’. The results of our empirical analysis, therefore, suggest the need for increasing technology intensity for the Indian organized manufacturing industries to achieve competitiveness in the global market.

Full textAbstract:
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to develop a model for forecasting product returns to the company for recycling in terms of quantity and time. Design/methodology/approach – Graphical Evaluation and Review Technique (GERT) has been applied for developing the forecasting model for product returns. A case of Indian mobile manufacturing company is discussed for the validation of this model. Survey conducted by the company and findings from previous research were used for data collection on probabilities and product life cycle. Findings – Product returns for their recycling are stochastic, random and uncertain. Therefore, to address the uncertainty, randomness and stochastic nature of product returns, GERT is very useful tool for forecasting product returns. Practical implications – GERT provides the visual picture of the reverse supply chain system and helps in determining the expected time of product returns in a much easier way but it requires probabilities of different flows and product life cycle. Both factors vary over a period, so require data update time to time before implementation. Originality/value – This model is developed by considering all possible flows of sold products from customer to their reuse, store or recycle or landfill. First time this type of real life flows have been considered and GERT has been applied for forecasting product returns. This model can be utilized by managers for better forecasting that will help them for effective reverse supply chain design.

Theoretical framework: The study identifies the need for designing customized WLBPs according to the requirement of individual employees and their respective industry would be beneficial. The one-size-fits-all policy may not work in the case of work-life problems. Design/methodology/approach: This study was conducted to assess Authentic Leadership, Coworker support, and Family support as independent variables and Work Satisfaction as well as Family Satisfaction as a Dependent variable in the estimation model. The information gathers from the organization which is a four-factory building. The 5-point Likert scale is used to prepare the questionnaire which was circulated to 800 participants working in the 4 factory buildings at Sal comp Chennai. Overall, 150 respondents completed the survey. Finding: Overall work-life balance is bonded with family support which reflects in the work that contributes to work satisfaction that will be effective in productivity. An estimation model and way model examination show an unmistakable association with both dependent and independent variables. A measurement model and path model analysis show a strong connection between the variables independent and dependent. Research, Practical & Social Implication: It contributes to a better consideration of the topic. As a result of a good Work-Life balance, a company's productivity increases, it retains its most talented employees for a long time, it cultivates a conducive work environment, and it is able to meet its goals and objectives to remain competitive. Originality/value: This study identifies the gap that there is not enough study and literature available especially connected to the Work-Life Balance of Women in the Electronics Industry in India as well as Globally. There is no clear evidence that there exists a distinctive gap between work-life balance issues between different sectors or industries.

While every new technology faces multiple challenges during market penetration, some technologies could be viewed by the adopters very differently than most others. The 3D Printing also called as Additive Manufacturing (AM), has been in the market for over a decade now, and is touted to be the next revolution in the industry. Technology has found wide applications in various industries, such as consumer electronics, automotive, medical devices, manufacturing and among many others. However, less is known with regards to the adoption and diffusion of 3D Printing technology, especially from the emerging economies. Using a survey method, this study aims to examine the adoption of 3D Printing technology in select industries in India. We found Relative Advantage, Ease of Use and Trialability to be significant. Whereas, Compatibility and Observability emerged as non-significant. We also explored the challenges with respect to 3D Printing Adoption. The knowledge of the major challenges along with the significant factors affecting adoption can help the manufacturers and suppliers of 3D Printing technology to focus on for increasing the rate of adoption.

Abstract: Given the volume of e-waste generated and the content of both dangerous and valuable materials in it, electronic garbage, or e-waste, is both an expanding concern and a growing commercial opportunity. Lack of technical skills, insufficient infrastructure, insufficient financial assistance, and inactive community involvement are all factors that contribute to the difficulty of electronic waste management. This paper presents a comprehensive summary of the issues connected with incorrect E-waste recycling processes, as well as measures to mitigate their harmful impacts on human health and the environment. Inventory of used electronic items, which may be generated by building an environmentally friendly recycling regulation system, is essential for proper e-waste management. In both developed and developing countries, approaches have been created to aid in the implementation of good waste management. Systematic waste management techniques, together with best practices, are projected to help developing countries maintain a sustainable and resilient environment while reducing negative consequences. The electronics industry is the largest and fastest-growing manufacturing sector on the planet. However, rising electronic device sales, quick technological obsolescence, fashion, style, and status changes have resulted in e-waste, also known as e-waste. If waste is not properly disposed of, it includes many toxic components that can harm the environment and human health. As garbage is generated and disposed of in a globalized world, waste concerns are of global importance. Trash management is becoming increasingly significant in India, not just for the country's own rubbish production, but also for the landfilling of waste from industrialized countries. This is due to India's lack of suitable disposal and recycling infrastructure and methods. The goal is to come up with creative and cost-effective ways to detoxify waste-contaminated habitats, make them safe for human habitation and consumption, and safeguard ecosystem services. Distinct categories of E-waste, different classifications of E-hazardous waste components, E-waste treatment methods, and more ecologically friendly and profitable methods for decontaminating E-waste from soil water habitats are discussed in this study. Innovative bioremediation technology, the waste management problem that India poses, and the idea of a formal trash recycling system in India. Keywords: E-waste management. Recycling. Electronic waste. Hazardous components. Formal methods Heavy metals. Cost-effective solution. Developmental toxicology

Full textAbstract:
The large and growing literature on industrial clustering suggests that firms seek locations that provide localization economies (benefits from having common buyers and suppliers, a specialized or skilled labor pool, and informal knowledge transfers). This study of manufacturing industry clusters in three Indian metropolises suggests instead that industry location decisions are guided by market imperfections, specifically rigidities in the land market caused by state action (segregationist or environmental policies, the absence of exit policies, and activist industrial promotion policies). For the investigation the authors use geographically disaggregated industry location and size data from Mumbai, Kolkata, and Chennai, to analyze eight industrial sectors (food and beverages, textiles, leather, printing and publishing, chemicals, metals, machinery, and electrical and electronics). The authors test for evidence of global and local clustering and distinguish between and test for coclustering and colocation of industries. The results are indicative rather than absolute and suggest that for location decisions general urbanization economies are more important than are localization economies.

Full textAbstract:
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to investigate the current status of reverse logistics practices used on four sectors of Indian manufacturing industry, namely, auto, paper, food and beverage processing, and electronics. Design/methodology/approach – A nationwide questionnaire-based survey has been used to assess reverse logistics practices in Indian context. Findings – It was seen from the survey that Indian companies considered implementing reverse logistics programs in their organization as a strategic-level decision. Volume of products entering the return stream is a key driver of reverse logistics activities. One of the important observations of this research is that Indian companies have primarily adopted reverse logistics due to the economic benefits associated with them. Research limitations/implications – The results reported in this research are the bird’s eye view of reverse logistics practices in the Indian context only. The low level of questionnaire responses is also one of the limitations of this study. Numerical data related to companies could not be reported in this research as companies were reluctant in giving sensitive data. Practical implications – The present research would be useful for benchmarking professionals/managers for understanding strategic, tactical and operational-level issues of reverse logistics with respect to Indian context. Also, logistics managers can evolve suitable strategies for successful implementation of reverse logistics programs. Originality/value – The literature review indicates that only a few frameworks available give a holistic perspective of the current status of reverse logistics operations in an Indian context. This research is an attempt in this regard.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to examine the impact of research and development (R&D) tax credit scheme on participating firm’s R&D expenditure in Indian manufacturing firms. Design/methodology/approach Tobit model is used to estimate the impact of R&D tax credit scheme on R&D expenditure. Findings The results suggest that there is a positive and significant effect of R&D tax incentive scheme on R&D. The introduction of the R&D tax credit scheme and the policy amendment are positively influencing R&D investment of the participating firms. However, industry-specific results suggest that these positive results are mainly driven by electronic and pharmaceutical industries. The study reveals that import of technology, import of raw materials, competition, profitability, age and leverage position of the firm also positively influence the R&D intensity of the firm. Research limitations/implications The study is limited to the listed manufacturing firms in India. Practical implications The study evaluates the innovation policy to help the policymakers in designing an effective policy. Originality/value The paper provides evidence on the impact of R&D tax incentive scheme on firm innovation to explain the factors that contribute to the R&D expenditure of the participating firms. It also summarises the effectiveness of tax incentive scheme on different industry groups and firm size.

Full textAbstract:
The development of embroidery art has been worldwide in general and India in particular for many centuries. From handmade production to digital manufacturing, embroidery products have been commercialized into consumer market as part of modern fashion. As a result, consumer preference proves decisive on purchasing embroidery products but makes demand forecasting in embroidery industry more difficult compared to general consumer goods industry. Many factors are influencing purchase of embroidery products. There is a shift in trend to buy machine made products than handmade ones. To find out from young college going girls their preference for different embroideries and to know about their mode of making purchase decisions this study was carried out in Jamshedpur city. It was found that there is preference for machine embroidery over hand embroidery. Electronic and print media are very influential in purchase decisions. Price is an important factor considered by all.

<p>This empirical paper explores trends in innovation activities measured by a countries’ total patent application submission intensity relative to its population, and by analyzing U.S. granted patents data for cohorts of developed countries and developing countries. In addition to tabular and graphical analyses, I use a baseline regression model and a variant model thereof to assess the relative influence of a set of aggregate variables on innovation activities in eight manufacturing industries across two cohorts of countries (developed and developing) where each cohort contains eight individual countries. Eight industries included in this study are: Chemical, Petroleum, electrical and electronics equipment, machinery, pharmaceutical, plastic, computer, and textile. The cohort of developed countries includes Australia, Canada, Czech Republic, France, Italy, Poland, Switzerland, and the United States. The cohort of developing countries includes Brazil, China, India, Malaysia, Mexico, Russia, South Africa, and Turkey. Per regression results, ethnic diversity is a statistically significant positive determinant of innovation for all industry aggregate patent count for both high income and developing countries. Also, per capita electricity usage, R&D expenditure as percent of GDP, and percent of population with internet access are three positive factors of innovation irrespective of industrial subsectors and position of a country in the development echelon. Interestingly, impact of ICT-services export is statistically significant and innovation boosting in developing countries in the cohort relative to countries in the cohort of developed countries. It also appears that trade openness served as a stronger stimulant of innovation activities for developing countries’ but not as much for the cohort of developed or high-income countries. This paper attempts to extend the literature on cross-country comparison of innovation activities by using two measures of innovation activities across developed and developing countries, and by analyzing both aggregate and sector-level data for eight manufacturing industries both graphically and utilizing panel regression models. </p>

The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic is spreading rapidly and threatening lives all over the globe. Due to the pandemic, economies all over the world are in deep distress due to disruption in work and operations across all sectors. The present case study was performed for a private Indian manufacturing company that has been affected to a great extent due to this pandemic, as India has the second highest number of SARS-CoV-2 cases after the USA. The deeply troubled company’s current predicament is very complex, as various factors are responsible for the crisis. In order to restore the company back to normal functioning, these factors were studied and evaluated. A diagnostic survey was conducted to obtain data about current working conditions of company. Data from the survey were analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively to identify and evaluate the disruptive factors. Based on this analysis, problems in operational activities were identified and appropriate improvement actions (best practices) were proposed. Furthermore, the proposed improvement actions were assessed from a sustainability perspective to check their feasibility. The best practices framework was generalized to a three-step continuous improvement framework oriented around preparedness for future pandemic-like disruptions. The proposed framework may constitute an indication and set of best practices for consideration by other manufacturing companies that find themselves in a similar situation to the analyzed case study.

Abstract : The article is devoted to a comparative analysis of world-class technical universities (TUs) ranks in the International Quacquarelli Symonds (QS) ranking 2021. The top-100 of QS-2021 includes only one Russian TUs, and there are no TUs of large industrial countries such as India and Brazil. Many Russian TUs were founded in the 30s of the last century, were related to certain industry ministries and have retained their narrow orientation up to the present time. However, the manufacturing of modern high-tech products (aircraft, robotics, electronics, medical equipment etc.) requires engineers to have knowledge from various fields of science (multidisciplinarity), supported by profound int erd isc iplina ry r esea rches. In add it ion, multidisciplinary TUs provide the opportunity for students to change their specialty or adjust it during their undergraduate and graduate studies. The analysis showed that leading positions in international rankings are occupied by multidisciplinary research TUs that conduct training and interdisciplinary research at the intersection of various scientificactivities. This study can be useful not only for Russia, but also for the transformation of TUs in other countries.

Abstract A new thrust towards self-employment is seen in India where more than half of the labor class is fending for itself outside the ambit of any kind of employment. Global production networks (gpn s) have changed the structure of the labor market and extended precarity to almost every part of work and world. This has created a labor class that is neither proletariat nor bourgeois but a petty producer integrated in gpn s through mediators called ‘contractors.’ These producers are basically laborers who have been pushed out of the factory system and forced into self-employment. The paper has studied the trajectory of non-agricultural home-based Own Account Enterprises (oae s); a classic case of petty producers across gender and caste lines in various sectors of industry using state-organized enterprise surveys conducted in 2010–2011 and 2015–2016. It has found a vast majority of oae s earning less than half the proposed minimum wage (pmv)—a threshold similar to the idea of living wages rates. The most distressed oae s are in manufacturing, especially, textile, garment, leather, and chemical industries. The over emphasis on self-employment is shrinking the space for labor movement particularly in the global South.

Abstract State-of-the-art technologies have changed engineering education and the manufacturing industry over the past few years. Now, the markets in electronics and information science arena have variety of products and are easily accessible for the customers through e-commerce. Mostly the start-up companies are wont these online platforms for their business. The start-ups have a potential to flourish their products in the market. The number of student's start-ups in the mechanical engineering stream is relatively less when compared to the ones spawned by other engineering streams. Products from pure mechanical engineering stream is less in the market but has a huge potential that is waiting to be explored. Promotion of mechanical based start-ups can be made only by paving the seed of entrepreneurial culture, which has to be sprout among engineering students through the campus start-up activities.This study analyses the entrepreneurial inquisitiveness of under graduate mechanical engineering students in the state of Kerala, India, in terms of their attitude, involvement in entrepreneurialinfluence of Government organizations, barriers faced by the students and the different components behind campus start-ups. A sample of 380 mechanical engineering students from various engineering colleges across Kerala participated in survey through both direct and online methods. The questionnaire for the data collection was prepared based on literature, feedback and market research. A seven-point Likert scale was used to record their responses. The data was analysed using a multiple regression approach, with the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS). Results from this research are aimed at providing insights to State Governments in their start-up policy, to the Universities in their curriculum revision and to the Higher education department in the states to sire an entrepreneurial ecosystem in the engineering campus. Educated youth have to fortify as an industrialist for the economic growth of their nation. Keywords: Global market, Entrepreneurship, Campus Start-ups, Inquisitiveness, Engineering students.

Theoretical basis There had been many pieces of research on international expansion approaches, and they continued to grow. However, research about the firms belonging to emerging nations and that went global were still in the early stages. It had been argued that most theories on international expansion had focused on explaining the internationalization of large firms, majorly originating in developed countries. This case study offers an intriguing reading about an Indian MNC, successfully entering the developed markets and competing thereof amidst tough and complex world. Moreover, the leaders like Baba Kalyani met the stiff challenge from complexities and disruption successfully through entrepreneurial mindset. The case study offers insights into “Creating Value Through Entrepreneurial Leadership Framework”. Research methodology The case study has been developed through secondary data sources. The published online resources, the firm's annual reports formed the basis of the research work. Author accessed online news articles, auto component industry experts' views and reports from global consultancy firms, and auto industry body such as SIAM (Society of Indian Automobile Manufacturers) reports helped the research. The views and interviews by promoters of the company are available online for deeper insights and analysis. Case overview/synopsis An Indian multinational, Bharat Forge Limited (BFL), was a shining example of achieving global manufacturing standards through perseverance and entrepreneurial leadership. For more than the past four decades, BFL faced complexities, uncertainties and disruptions multiple times, and every time, the business world saw a resurgent company, Bharat Forge. The company achieved growth through diversification, related and unrelated, acquisition, product innovation, portfolio expansion and expansion in domestic and global development. Competitive market, economic slowdown, innovation and technology disruption had not deterred BFL from growing into a worldwide auto component giant. BFL overcame all hurdles with grit and enterprise. It achieved a paradigm shift with over half the revenue from non-automotive sectors such as defence, electric vehicle components, e-mobility, power electronics and aluminium light-weighting. Complexity academic level This case is planned for MBA students, primarily in the second half of the course curriculum. It can be executed in marketing, strategic marketing and strategic management courses. The conceptual framework pertaining to corporate strategy, global expansion, diversification, product development, innovation, disruption, market development and entrepreneurial leadership can be taught through the case. The case is suitable for MBA executive students as well, in courses mentioned above in addition to courses such as strategic leadership.

India really does have the most youthful population on the planet, with an average age of just over 30 years, while also being the second most populous country in the world after China. The year 2020 commenced in India with high aspirations and potential, however, to stop the spread of the Covid-19 epidemic, the nation quickly went into lockdown. The education industry, which was severely impacted from primary to higher streams in school, colleges, and universities, is the most afflicted at this pivotal moment. Digital alternatives were simplified to cover the curriculum, and cell phones and other electronic devices that were officially forbidden in schools ended up being the sole supporting technology during the lockdown. One study was done with a focus on students, teaching staff, and parents of school-age children in order to examine the consequences of students' and teachers' abrupt adoption of online learning. The poll had 301 responses in all, and the outcomes were valid and optimistic. With the development of technology, the significance of online education as well as the advantages and disadvantages of both modes of education were amplified. The findings highlighted the shortcomings of the online education system as well as certain advantages of traditional or classroom instruction. Before introducing online education on a large scale in India, a developing nation, the government must first provide the essential facilities. The bedrock of how people survive and flourish is learning. People are educated to help them become contributing members of society through both online and offline learning. No learning method can be guaranteed to be 100 percent successful. As depending on just one of the aforementioned modes can never be particularly effective, it must be a combination of both, the best among these two core systems must be taken and combined.

Full textAbstract:
With the emergence of industry 4.0, several elements of the supply chain are transforming through the adoption of smart technologies such as blockchain, the internet of things and cyber-physical systems. Logistics is considered one of the important elements of supply chain management and its digital transformation is crucial to the success of industry 4.0. In this circumstance, the existing logistics system needs to be upgraded with industry 4.0 technologies and emerge as logistics 4.0. However, the adoption/transformation of logistics 4.0 is dependent on several determinants that need to be explored. Therefore, this study has the prime objective of investigating the determinants of logistics 4.0 adoption in the context of a developing country, specifically, India. Initially, ten determinants of logistics 4.0 are established after a survey of the relevant literature and the input of industry experts. Further, a four-level structural model is developed among these determinants using the Interpretive Structural Modelling (ISM) approach. In addition, a fuzzy Matrix of Cross-Impact Multiplications Applied to Classification (MICMAC) analysis is also conducted for the categorization of these determinants as per their driving and dependence power. The findings show that top management supports, information technology infrastructure and financial investment are the most significant determinants towards logistics 4.0 adoption. This study facilitates the supply chain partners to focus on these high-level determinants for the effective adoption of logistics 4.0. Moreover, the findings lead to a more in-depth insight into the determinants that influence logistics 4.0 and their significance in logistics 4.0 adoption in emerging economies.

It is still not clear how supply chain management can be applied to enhance and improve the performance of the supply chain. Consequently, the purpose of this research is to investigate the effect of five different factors in supply chain on its performance. This research studies the relationship between the selected variables (i.e. quality, time, information, flexibility, and integration) and supply chain management performance. This research takes a step forward to better understand the relationship between supply chain management factors and supply chain performance by incorporating these variables into the industrial landscape of electronics manufacturing in Malaysia. Specifically by using a combination model of a unified framework combining SCOR Model (Supply Chain Council, 1997) and system approach model (Min &Mentzer, 2004). As such, the analysis in this study contributes to the empirical literature of supply chain management, policy progress, as well as managerial implications. The outcome of this study also signifies the contribution it has given towards a new shift in upgrading the manufacturing best practices in developing countries through effective supply chain management practices.

The literature on the new international division of labour (NIDL) highlights the rapid growth of the electronics industry in East and Southeast Asia. By contrast, the Indian electronics industry has received less attention because of its traditional emphasis upon import substitution and relatively weak articulation with the prevailing global division of labour. Moreover, the application of the microchip technology in India is still in its early stages, though government interest and support for it suggest a promising future. Nevertheless, in computer software India is emerging as a competitive location for software development and exports.

Purpose This study aims to explore the influences of contingent workers on organizations’ innovation performance and develop a framework examining how innovation performance benefits from the utilization of contingent workers. Built up on a strategic human resource (HR) flexibility model, the importance of coordination flexibility of contingent worker skills and behaviors is highlighted. Design/methodology/approach Structural equation modeling is used to test the proposed hypotheses by using data collected from 163 paired surveys in Taiwan. The results provide support on the hypotheses. Findings The findings in this study highlight the coordination flexibility of contingent worker skills and behaviors, adaptive capability and knowledge integration on innovation performance in highly competitive industries. This study provides evidence linking coordination flexibility of contingent worker skills and behaviors and organizational innovation performance, and can contribute to the strategic HR management literature. Originality/value Coordination flexibility of contingent worker skills and behaviors contributes positively to innovation performance. According to the findings, managers should pay more attention on the contingent workers’ coordination practices to enhance organizational innovation performance in the manufacturing firms. In addition to the managerial implications, research limitations and future research directions are also discussed.
