TL;DR: In this paper, the data of a given problem instance is corrected at each branching in such a way that the new instance will be as close as possible to a polynomially solvable instance and the result satisfies an acceptable accuracy.
Abstract: The Data Correcting Algorithm is a branch and bound type algorithm in which the data of a given problem instance is `corrected' at each branching in such a way that the new instance will be as close as possible to a polynomially solvable instance and the result satisfies an acceptable accuracy (the difference between optimal and current solution). In this paper the data correcting algorithm is applied to determining exact and approximate optimal solutions to the simple plant location problem. Implementations of the algorithm are based on a pseudo-Boolean representation of the goal function of this problem, and a new reduction rule. We study the efficiency of the data correcting approach using two different bounds, the Khachaturov-Minoux bound and the Erlenkotter bound. We present computational results on several benchmark instances, which confirm the efficiency of the data-correcting approach.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors argue that job security regulation has not had the negative effects its critics make a case out for, and they argue that workers' employment prospects have been furthered in this emerging scenario, and their alliance with firms and the state results in an atrophying of job security regulations.
Abstract: Job security regulations have been central to government interventions in the labour market in India. These have been criticised for restricting employment growth. We argue that job security regulation has not had the negative effects its critics make a case out for. Firms have changed work practices and reorganised job boundaries as the import substituting industrialisation regime was dismantled. Weak enforcement of laws has supported this restructuring effort, with firms resorting to voluntary retirement of workers and increasingly hiring on the basis of flexible contracts. A two-tier system of employment currently prevails, with job security for the employed insiders and no protection to newly hired outsiders. Unorganised workers' employment prospects have been furthered in this emerging scenario, and their alliance with firms and the state results in an atrophying of job security regulations.

TL;DR: An IoT based collaboration framework for the agricultural sector (IoT–Agro) in particular for the sugar cane industry was proposed and will be adequate to best control and monitor the growth environment of sugar cane, achieve a high and stable yield, improve the productivity of land, monitor the pesticide level in the crop, water level, soil moisture and control the cultivation wastages.
