...Introduction to DLF DLF Limited (Delhi Land & Finance) is the largest commercial real estate developer in India. It was founded by Raghuvendra Singh in 1946 and is based in New Delhi, India. DLF developed residential colonies in Delhi such as Shivaji Park (their first development), Rajouri Garden, Krishna Nagar, South Extension, Greater Kailash, Kailash Colony, and Hauz Khas. DLF builds residential, office, and retail properties. With the passage of Delhi Development Act in 1957, the local government assumed control of real estate development in Delhi and banned private real estate developers. As a result DLF began acquiring land at relatively low cost outside the area controlled by the Delhi Development Authority, in the district of Gurgaon, in the adjacent state of Haryana. In the mid-1970s, the company started developing their DLF City project at Gurgaon. Its plans include hotels, infrastructure and special economic zones-related development projects. The company is headed by Indian billionaire Kushal Pal Singh. Kushal Pal Singh, according to the Forbes listing of richest billionaires in 2009, was the 98th richest man in the world and the world's richest property developer. The company's US$ 2 billion IPO in July, 2007 was India's biggest IPO in history.

...Hunter Steadman English 201 Mrs Baggett September 24, 2014 An Analysis of John Smiths Performance leading the colonies John smith has had an immense impact on the colonies and the lasting history of soon the to be United States of America. Good, bad and sometimes both of these in conjunction. John smiths reputation has been, and will be immortalized in the birth of a new world, for both negative and positive reasons pertaining to his vision for the colonies, his personal troubles, and his leadership among the people. John smith had a clear vision for the colonies and what they could be. His vision consisted of hard, hard work and the notion that every Englishman could achieve the American dream through hard work. He had a vision of establishing a new social order where one could gain or attain personal honor. Unfortunately he had a rather “iron fisted” mindset and is said to have been a bit of a “slave driver” he was a military man who wanted to maintain order so he didn’t really fit the mold of creating this new social order....

Y.V.S Pragathi M.Tech Head of CSE Department 3 Abstract Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) has been successfully applied to those combinatorial optimization problems which can be translated into a graph exploration. Artificial ants build solutions step by step adding solution components that are represented by graph nodes. The existing ACO algorithms are suitable when the graph is not very large (thousands of nodes) but is not useful when the graph size can be a challenge for the computer memory and cannot be completely generated or stored in it. In this paper we study a new ACO model that overcomes the difficulties found when working with a huge construction graph. In addition to the description...

...Social Impact Report Document Author: John Doe Submission Date: 9/04/2013 Executive Summary: Cyborgs, seen in the ‘sci-fi world’ as humans with robotic parts on the outside of the body, have become a topic of great interest in the real world. Short for "cybernetic organism", the actual definition of a cyborg is a being whose physiological functioning is aided by or dependent upon a mechanical or electronic device, regardless of whether this device is within the body or an external component. A shorter, easier to remember definition is “a being who is made up of both biological and cybernetic parts. After a thorough analysis of Cybernetics, it was found that: * Cybernetics will continue to be used to increase human efficiency * Cyborg technology will get cheaper and more common as more technologies are discovered * Humans rely on technology to such an extent that they could not live without it * There will always be people who dispute Cyborg use, but that won’t stop them from being used Contents Executive Summary: 2 Introduction: 4 Part 1: A Critical argument of the use of Cyborgs in society 5 Part 2: An evaluation of the potential social impact of current and emerging technologies in my area 7 Part 3: A description of the role of technology from a personal perspective and a future scenario where this technology is evident 8 Conclusion: 10 Reference List: 11 Appendix: 12 Introduction: The purpose of this report is to critically...

...of the Ohio legislature, to name a few things he did in his life (Andrea 309). To say the least, Williams was a man of many talents with an incredible background and was recognized by many important people. Williams’ interest of the Congo started when Chester B. Arthur introduced him to Henry Sanford, who was a friend of King Leopold of Belgium (Andrea 309). Williams traveled to the Congo, which was under the hold of Leopold, for six months while he was traveling Africa. Historical Context: This letter was written in 1890, after Williams’ six month trip to Africa. During this time period, much of Africa was being imperialized by European countries in order to gain land for crops and materials. The Belgians, under the rule of King Leopold II, occupied the Congo Basin in central Africa (Bulliet 679). The Berlin Conference in 1884 was a gathering of leaders from different European countries in order...

...Analysis of the Case R&R Bob Reiss was an entrepreneur. He saw an opportunity in the market to make a profit and he succeeded. The following describes his market transactions and whether they were right or wrong using transaction cost economics theories. I will use Oliver Williamson’s theories and rules to decide whether the transactions were correct. At the end I will have enough information to decide if every opportunity needs a firm and if there is room for entrepreneurs who depend on the price mechanism. Reiss’s first major market transaction was designing the game. He took this to the market and found a professional inventor, whom he knew. This was the right decision. This game only needed to be designed once. The frequency was low. Therefore there was no point in wasting time and incurring the costs of creating it. Also this product was unique. He would not have been able to create it as simply as the market, which had more experience. Since Reiss knew the designer the uncertainty of him defaulting on the contract was very low. He also knew that the designer would be motivated to complete the project because he aligned their interests together through a sales motivated contract. Next was Reiss’s responsibility to set up operations to take the game to market. He didn’t have the cash flow to do this. Instead of raising the money himself he established a partnership to create the firm Trivia Inc and went to the market to gain the funding. His new partner...

...an industrial economy. Here are the trade theories which discussed on self sufficiency and free trade policies. Mercantilist policy tries to make a country self sufficient. Interventionist Mercantilism: According to this theory a country’s wealth is measured by its holdings of treasure, which usually meant its gold. This means a country should export more than imports, if successful, receive gold from countries that run deficits. To export more than they imported, governments imposed restrictions on most imports, and they subsidized production of many products that could otherwise not compete in domestic or export markets. Some countries used their colonial possessions to support this trade objective. The colonies had to export less highly valued raw materials and import more highly...

At that time, USA was the most powerful country in the world as well as the biggest creditor country. The American finance had close connection with all the capitalist countries and the international business market. The crisis spread from American to the vital capitalist countries Germany, Japan, Britain and France.

...The Effects of Globalization and Neoliberalism on African Societies Globalization and neoliberalism are concepts that can be applied to the analysis of any aspect of modern day society. Social life in a particular area is filled with the constant spread of ideas, practices and beliefs due largely to globalization. This paper will provide an in depth view on the effects Globalization and neoliberalism has had on culture and development in African societies. Within Africa lies various intricate backgrounds from its colonialism roots to the shift towards globalization in the effort to promote development. Exposing the dynamics of globalization as well as its impact on African societies will lead to a better understanding of the relationship between Africa and the international community. Globalization, as defined by Held et al. , sees the issue “as a process (or set of processes) which embodies a transformation in the spatial organization of social relations and transactions--assessed in terms of their extensity, intensity, velocity and impact--generating transcontinental or interregional flows and networks of activity, interaction and the exercise of power.” (Held et al. 2004: 68), It involves the increased interaction between nations and the exchange of ideas, practices, relations and organization. (Ritzer 2008:574). One must be aware that the theory of globalization can be expressed through economic terms as well as sociologically. The...
