35. Impact of SAP S_4 HANA Advanced Variant Configuration

The escalating intricacy of product configurations in industries with diverse offerings has long strained legacy SAP ECC systems, particularly in variant configuration. Conventional SAP ECC, while robust, often falters due to complexity, suboptimal performance, and integration hurdles, leading to operational inefficiencies and customer dissatisfaction. This paper presents a transformative solution: SAP S/4HANA's Advanced Variant Configuration (AVC). We dissect the limitations of traditional SAP ECC variant configuration, highlighting cumbersome maintenance, sluggish high-volume processing, and integration bottlenecks. By adopting S/4HANA, businesses can harness AVC's enhanced capabilities: real-time processing for swift and accurate configuration, scalability for growing demands, and seamless integration for streamlined operations. AVC simplifies variant configuration and elevates the customer experience through heightened accuracy, reduced lead times, and personalized product options, leading to increased satisfaction. This analysis underscores AVC as pivotal for businesses managing complex portfolios, providing a competitive edge in dynamic markets. SAP S/4HANA's AVC emerges as a crucial enabler of operational efficiency and customer-centricity, making it indispensable for modern enterprises seeking excellence.

36. The Mechanics of Learning

The adage "Knowledge is power" is often accepted uncritically, yet this concept warrants deeper examination. In reality, knowledge, much like a steam engine, is not inherently powerful but is a tool that requires proper application and context to generate influence. Drawing on Annette Fisk's observation that psychology, originally the "science of the soul," has devolved into a mere "science of the mind," this paper explores the evolution of learning and its role in personal and societal development. While society perpetuates the belief that continuous learning is essential because life itself is an unending teacher, this research questions whether learning is truly within an individual's control. Can individuals selectively acquire knowledge, or are they at the mercy of what they encounter? Additionally, the paper examines the commonly held notion that practice is the key to mastering a skill, probing whether practice alone suffices or if other factors contribute to skill acquisition and perfection.

37. Challenging Child Marriage: The Role of Female Participation in Small-Scale Industries and Comprehensive Socio-Economic Policies

This research addresses the persistent issue of child marriage, focusing on its prevalence in regions like Rajasthan, India, where 35% of girls are married before the age of 18. The practice is driven not only by poverty and lack of education but also by a deeply ingrained "packaged mentality" that perceives daughters as burdens. Despite various legal efforts to combat child marriage, this mindset continues to hinder progress. The study explores the transformative potential of involving women in small-scale industries, where their participation can challenge traditional gender roles and shift societal perceptions. The research proposes policies to promote female participation in businesses, alongside incentives for families to invest in their daughters' education. Additionally, addressing menstrual health by providing free or low-cost products in schools is identified as crucial for keeping girls in education. These comprehensive strategies aim to reduce child marriage and promote gender equality by valuing girls for their potential rather than as burdens.

40. To Sell or Recycle Electronic Waste; Evidence from a Survey Experiment in Mumbai

Electronic waste is a growing concern in many cities, but little is known about how much people participate in certain waste streams with their previous products. The question which this research paper will be talking about is ‘What are the barriers to responsible electronic waste reuse and recycling in Mumbai?’. Matters will also be discussed such as why studying electronic waste is important, what the large environmental concerns of electronic waste consist of, and the problems that electronic waste causes in the city of Mumbai. A survey has also been conducted. Around 100 people have filled out the survey. All of the people who have filled out this survey are situated in the city of Mumbai, India. This survey asks basic questions about electronic waste such as what effect it has on us humans and on the environment. A survey experiment about an old TV was also conducted in the survey. In this experiment, the resale price of the old TV constantly decreases and the people filling out the survey decide whether they want to give/throw away the old TV, sell the TV at a particular resale price or keep the TV as backup. If they chose to give/throw away the TV or sell it at the given resale price, they would be directed to another section where they would be told that the resale value of the TV actually increased to $150 from the original resale price. The user would then be asked whether they regretted their decision of not keeping the TV. The results from the survey show that when the respondent does not keep the old TV at a lower price and when they find out that the resale value has changed $150, they tend to regret their decision more. In this survey when the initial resale value of the old TV was $10, most of the respondents did not keep it, but when they were told that the resale value of the old TV was actually $150, many of them regretted their decision of not keeping the old TV. This implies that the price determines the fate of old electronics. The higher the value, the more likely someone is willing to keep the old electronics.
