In this article a research vision which links the disciplines Model-Driven Architecture and IT Governance is presented. Model transformation and semantic mapping are enabling technologies for new, advanced solutions to address IT (Information Technology) Governance interoperability. In a prototype the generation of a model is shown based on an IT Governance domain.

Web pages are highly dynamic and it’s difficult to retrieve the relevant web pages in top 10 search results. This is based on some ranking mechanism incorporated retrieval system. The Retrieval system is designed for ranking the relevant web pages for user query. Usually, the retrieval system considers many techniques for ranking such as link based, connectivity based and keyword based techniques. The authors’ rank the web pages using the keywords and its associated TAGs. Based on the importance of each TAGs, weights are assigned and the semantics of the page is captured. In addition, the semantic information is represented in compact tree form, which supports both incremental and interactive mining with refined retrieval. From the experimental result, the authors have observed that the performance of the proposed approach is encouraging compared to the recently proposed approach.

SERVQUAL (Service Quality) model is being used to measure the service quality in almost every service sector globally. However, little research exists on its usage in evaluating the performance of the training sector despite its significant role in many developing economies. This article examines the performance of a very reputed training institute in India using SERVQUAL instrument. The first objective of the study was to check whether the customers were satisfied with the service of the institute. The second objective was to measure the gap between perception and expectations. Two expectation levels of the customers were studied – adequate (or minimum) and desirable (or maximum). The result of this study suggests that the training institute surpassed the minimum expectation level of its customers but fell short of the maximum expectation levels. The key dimension where the institute is lacking in terms of providing quality service is “assurance” and therefore the institute needs to revisit and improve the items considered under this dimension.

Today, the most successful companies are those that can respond quickly and flexibly to market changes and opportunities. A detailed understanding and knowledge is required to analyze the business environment at different levels. This can be achieved by implementing value added information throughout the organization. There has been an increased demand in the development of IT that performs data manipulation operations to report and analyze the data. While sifting through all that data, organizing it, and then using it to make the business run more profitably has become a bigger challenge. Decision markers can use such information to implement business strategies that best meet the needs of the ultimate customer. Making use of that information is all the more urgent.

Neural networks are known for their ability to recognize patterns of noisy, complex data and to estimate a nonlinear relationship between them. But the design of neural networks is very complex because it works on the principle of “black box.” The application of genetic algorithms in neural networks with hybrid systems can improve a network’s ability to make predictions. Hybrid systems involve the use of combined techniques, issues and different models in order to achieve the overall performance better than those offered by each solution considered separately. Projections made by hybrid systems have smaller errors and constructed systems are able to automatically select the variables necessary to function effectively. This is possible due to the principle of selective biological function of genetic algorithms. They select from a large population of neural networks the best generations, made their exchange of elements and even mutations to get the most advanced networks. For an evolving and performance changes economic environment are necessary tools that can help make faster optimal decisions and increase the business efficiency.

P2P communities can be seen as truly Distributed Computing applications in which group members communicate with one another to exchange information. The authors consider security issues in Peer to Peer Networks. For secure exchange of data between the group members the authors present a cryptography protocol and an Identity mechanism which can able to check even the Trust of the Peers based on the available reputation information. The authors are encapsulating the reputations of both the provider and the requester. So the requester cannot (gainfully) maliciously abort the transaction in the middle. In other words, the requester cannot take the service from the provider and then logoff without giving a recommendation to the provider.

Presently, technology plays a vital role in the field of business to acquire its position in the global market. The authors’ proposal brings a smart way of making business by the eco-friendly and economical friendly Cloud TPS. Cloud TPS provides advance features compare with cloud computing because Cloud TPS bears with ACID property which is not acquired in cloud computing. It reveals the secret behind it and gives opportunities for students, house hold businesses and corporation in this fourth version of the authors’ research bringing you the most advanced technology and its latest opportunities. In addition it deals with how it supports to reduce global warming and an overview to which way society can be able to gives their pc to cloud and ways to earn money. The authors classified the opportunities into three categories of opportunities. An additional supporting feature behind this business opportunity is reducing global warming, as well as satisfy the RRD concept and gives an idea to utilize it in an efficient manner, which will be reveal by this paper as we take you to the next generation computing based business opportunities.
