Abstract: India's E-Commerce sector is rapidly evolving due to the country's growing mobile population and advancements like 5G networks, Open Network for Digital Commerce, Hyper local Delivery, and Quick Commerce. An online retail company, Flipkart, has deployed AI in marketing, data analysis and campaign optimization to enrich users’ experience, marketing initiatives and operational productivity. AI algorithms automatically understand user needs, rephrase queries, extract and analyze information and direct users to right answers. However, the deployment of AI brings ethical as well as privacy challenges concerning collection and use of personal data. This paper explores the impact of AI on the e-commerce sector in India by focusing on Flipkart Pvt. Ltd., as well as describes opportunities provided by these technologies along with associated risks and their implications for the sector. The contribution of the study is that AI has made a big difference in the sector of e-commerce in India through customized recommendations made to consumers, higher rate of customer satisfaction, increased conversion rate, etc. These benefits have enabled businesses to formulate very strong campaign strategies, but there are also new risks due to AI, such as overreliance by customers on the recommendations from machines or bias of algorithm-based decisions. The research methodology involves review of many research articles and collection of secondary data. Flipkart is focusing on AI-based products and setting up a base in the heart of Silicon Valley in California. It has also partnered with Microsoft to enhance its online shopping experience, coupled with the launch of AI for India, aimed at capitalizing on the growing internet user base and smart phone markets.
Abstract: The present study elucidates that significant difference exists amongst
profile of respondents and container management. Time of schedule,
strategic leadership, cost control and vessel capacities have positive and
significant influence on supply chain management. In addition, cost
control, vessel capacity, time of schedule and strategic leadership have
significant, positive and direct influence on effectiveness of container
management, while, effectiveness of container management has
significant, positive and direct influence on supply chain management.
Therefore, all the hypotheses are supported by the findings of the present
study. Therefore, it is essential to develop a model capable of predicting the
time of arrival for vessels, providing terminal planners with accurate
information to facilitate optimal berth planning and the owners of
containers must improve container operations by implementing integrated
operations, optimizing system dynamics, utilizing information sharing
systems, and deploying advanced technology and process optimization.
Integrated operations of separate container can lead to reduced vessel
waiting time, balanced utilization across terminals, and increased overall
profits. The owners of containers should improve capacity utilization of
their containers and they must build dense packs outside of the confines of
a container and load/unload in a single shot and use machinery with
smart technology to load as closely to the container walls as possible and
also use optimization techniques. Besides, the owners of containers should
charge rationally for their services on par with market and they must
avoid extra or additional cost for maintaining their competitiveness and
margins in profit. The owner of containers should concentrate on
networking that has to be executed immediately and it will help to balance
demand and supply and allocate various tasks to employees in the cost
effective ways. The vessel capacity must be increased or fully utilized by
means of switching to floor loading and packing containers without
pallets. Furthermore, the owners of containers must effectively collaborate
with supply chain partners that will improve their business operations.
Abstract: This study examined Nigeria’s foreign policy vis-à-vis the fight against domestic terrorism in Nigeria, in order to ascertain whether Nigeria’s foreign policy was able to assist in the fight against domestic terrorism in Nigeria within the period of the study. The study is guided by a research question such as: Does the use of land border closure technique contribute in reducing smuggling of small arms and light weapons (SALWs) proliferation in Nigeria? The study adopted Neo-functionalism theory of integration as its analytical framework understanding the discourse on how Nigeria’s foreign policy was able to assist in the fight against domestic terrorism in Nigeria. Therefore, we stated our hypothesis that: the use of land borders closure technique contributed in reducing smuggling small arm and light weapons (SALW) proliferation in Nigeria, which often stimulate terrorism in Nigeria. The research also utilized the documentary method for collecting data and employed content analysis to analyze information derived from secondary sources. Finally, we recommended amongst other things, that there should be observation and implementation of land borders closure technique into Nigeria’s foreign policy as a legal framework of curtailing smuggling of small arms and light weapons (SALWs) in the country.
