This research paper studies the housekeeping services in Stay bridge Suites Hotel, which deals with challenges in managing the Quality of Service (QoS). Since there is no standard procedure for serving customers and the staff is required to perform manual tasks, miscommunications between staff present lead to long waiting times. This problem results in frequent complaints regarding the services, which leads to a bad reputation, low customer retention, and improper utilization of resources. The project aims to identify the root causes affecting the QoS and standardize the housekeeping management process. To achieve these objectives, DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, and Control) methodology was accomplished. As a result, some of the significant factors that affect the waiting time are manual task allocation, seasonal workload, and lack of supervision. Therefore, a preventive automated solution was proposed regarding the scheduling procedure to decrease the service waiting time.

This paper predicts the exchange rates cyclical for US dollar [forecast two states for exchange rates; appreciation and depreciation] through using developing and developed currencies along with two risk factors (TED spreads and Inflation). Probity and logit models along with the principal component analysis and factor analysis are used to retain the most powerful components and factors. The empirical findings reveal that risk factors are not key factors in determining the exchange rates' cyclical behavior for the US dollar. Furthermore, the Sterling Pound is the only variable that has a consistent result that is more likely to cause appreciation for the US dollar exchange rate using all types of regressions. In addition, Renminbi shows inconsistent effects between different regressions; using OLS is less likely to cause appreciation for the US dollar exchange rate. By contrast, using Logit and Probit regressions is more likely to cause appreciation for the US dollar exchange rate. On the other hand, principal component analysis and factor analysis show that for all currencies we should retain two components and factors to be able to explain around 80% of the variation in exchange rate cyclical.

This paper is based on the discussion about the cryptocurrencies and its impact on the financial industry. However, the adoption of cryptocurrencies is a different matter because right now the Bitcoins is considered as for wealthy, developed and tech-savvy cultures. Based on the analysis about the points of differences of the currency a countries profile can be developed who are more likely to adopt the Bitcoin. The cryptocurrencies are considered a potential solution against the accessibility, exchange, fraud, and inflation. Moreover, the prices are considerably increasing because the demand for core good is growing rapidly relative to supply. As per the analysis the fiat currency system is considered as the main reason for the future inflation however it will not cause any significant problem in the overall financial industry. The growing demand for housing is also increasing the price of lumber that also increased in the prices of wood. Consequently, all the related goodwill becomes more expensive following the trickle through the economy. Moreover, the asset market also contributes considerably to the inflation. An increase in the price of certain commodity incentivizes the people who are producing those commodities. In this regard, the producers withhold the supply of those commodities that eventually results in increased prices. Furthermore, the inflation can also be caused by the supply shock like the interruption in oil supply to Southern US caused by Katrina devastated. It caused fluctuation dramatically in the real exchange rates instead of producing desired results. The fluctuation also triggers the development of three asymmetries in the exchange market. The first factors that come into play is the loss aversion which means that the losing side will suffer more loss vocally and acutely as compare to the less vocal winning side during the time of depreciation or appreciation. Hence, the fiscal policy will experience more disturbances.

A human’s life is normally divided into four main stages: infancy, childhood, adulthood and old age. Every year, on October 1st, "World Day of the Elderly" is celebrated all over the world. From 1990 to 2025, the elderly population in Asia has increased from 50% of the world's elderly to 58%. The present study was conducted to assess the health and dietary intake of elderly residents of a nursing home in the city of Udaipur. For this reason, the sample of elderly people aged 59 to 75 were randomly selected. The total sample of the present study was made up of 100 elderly men from nursing homes in Udaipur city. Therefore, the total sample size was 100. Nutrition is considered a fundamental part of the individual or the family. A dietary survey was conducted using the 24-hour recall method to find out the daily dietary pattern and dietary nutrient intake of the elderly (men) selected for the study. The results of the research of the dietary survey show that the diet of elderly men compared to balanced diets was substantially inadequate in cereals 43.75%, pulses 64.25%, roots and tubers 3.97%, green leafy vegetables 10. 38%, fruits 14.76%, milk and derivatives 77.8%, sugar 81 65.12% and fats and oils 99.75%. The food intake of institutionalized older males was lower than the RDA, a significant difference was found between grains, legumes, fruits, roots and tubers, green leafy vegetables, milk and dairy products, sugar and fat, and oil.

Work motivation of employees can determine the work efficiency, which is a key factor affecting the success of an organisation in a competitive market. Compared to the employees working in business organisation, people who work public sector are not only affected by individualistic motivational orientation, but also affected by the institutional motivational orientation. Like western countries, the public sector has also undergone some significant changes with meeting the transformation of the economy in China. Therefore, it is necessary to explore if Public University teachers can keep their institutional motivational orientation under the background of privatisation trend of public sector in China and what factors can influence their institutional motivational orientation. Therefore, there is a merit in a systematic investigation of the institutional motivational orientation of public university teachers. This paper sought to fill this gap in the literature. Using a case of H University in China, this paper investigated what factors are closely related to the institutional motivational orientation of Public University teachers in three contexts: transformation context, education sector context and societal culture context. The findings revealed that the institutional motivational orientation of public university teachers is affected by both organisational factors happened in transformation context and societal culture context but is more influenced by the societal culture context. The demographic factors of public university teachers and their institutionalised beliefs in education have no effect on their motivational orientation.
