Moderation of Income and Age on Customer Purchase Intention of Green Cosmetics in Bangalore
Age; Consumer innovativeness; Cosmetics; Green; Health consciousness; Income; Intention; Purchase
Cracking the code of customer purchase behaviour is a challenge for market researchers as myriad factors interfere. Marketers are puzzled as competitors position a new product category in the market to create demand. Indian public perceived cosmetics composition as blend of healthy chemical extracts. Television commercials portrayed the presence of chemicals in cosmetics as a product performance booster. People attributed chemical presence to superior product performance. Saturated markets witnessed competitors aiming at increased sales with similar commercials. Under pressure to differentiate, the idea of organic cosmetics started. Companies invested heavily on product development, marketing and branding. Expected success was not achieved as buyers measured performance of cosmetics weighing the absence of chemicals. Scepticism on organic level of the products emerged as various brand commercials claimed their respective compositions a true organic product. Fewer studies explained purchase intention of green cosmetics without focus on health consciousness and consumer innovativeness. Product diffusions were strategized on the basis of consumer innovativeness. Health consciousness captured individuals weightage on health and well-being while purchasing a product. This paper explores relationship of health consciousness and consumer innovativeness with purchase intention development conducting exploratory factor analysis, regression analysis and interaction analysis on selected independent variables using dependent variables. The study found both consumer innovativeness and health consciousness leading to development of purchase intention of green cosmetics. Age and income moderated the relationship of consumer innovativeness and purchase intention. 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.

Modern privacy preserving strategies for IoT security
Computer security; Computer security and privacy; Cryptography; Information systems; Network (computer science); Operations management
The proliferation of Internet of Things (IoT) devices has brought about a revolution in various industries and everyday life, enhancing connectivity and efficiency. Nevertheless, this rapid adoption has also given rise to notable security and privacy challenges, leading to the need for robust solutions to safeguard sensitive data. This study delves into contemporary strategies for preserving privacy specifically designed for IoT security, with a focus on the most recent trends and technologies. By the year 2024, it is projected that the global count of IoT devices will exceed 30 billion, exhibiting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 26.7% from 2021 to 2024. This exponential growth has led to a significant increase in the amount of data produced and transmitted by IoT devices, thereby creating fresh opportunities as well as vulnerabilities. Privacy apprehensions are crucial, given that these devices frequently amass sensitive personal and organizational data. The research scrutinizes cutting-edge privacy-preserving techniques, such as federated learning, homomorphic encryption, and differential privacy, which present promising resolutions for safeguarding data while upholding functionality. Federated learning has garnered attention as a decentralized approach that permits data processing to occur locally on devices rather than being sent to central servers, thereby reducing data exposure. Homomorphic encryption facilitates data processing while encrypted, ensuring a high level of security without disclosing the underlying information. Conversely, differential privacy introduces statistical noise to data, guaranteeing that individual data points are not easily discernible, thus preserving user privacy. This section also accentuates the significance of adhering to regulations and the impact of frameworks like the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) on shaping the advancement and acceptance of privacy-preserving technologies. Moreover, an exploration is made into the incorporation of blockchain for immutable and transparent data management in IoT environments. This manuscript furnishes an exhaustive overview of the prevalent trends and technologies within this realm, providing insights into the future trajectory of IoT security and privacy. 2026 Elsevier Inc.

During the pandemic, students had no access to physical teaching practices, which had been adapted worldwide as the principal way of education since the 1800's. Due to the restrictions imposed to garner safety from the spread of the virus, this methodology had to be modified based on the situation at hand. Alternatives through the usage of Virtual Learning Platforms (VLP), Online Tutoring Platforms (OTP), Web Conferencing Platforms (WCP) and multiple assessment tools like plagiarism checker, poll sites, quiz platforms, online proctored examinations (OPE) started gaining popularity among all institutes to cope with the limitations levied. The technologies molded a path for student-teacher interaction, performance assessments, document sharing and online tutoring. This research highlights the lack of online tutoring equipment, educators' limited expertise with online learning, the knowledge gap, a inimical atmosphere for independent study, equity, and academic success in postsecondary learning. The goal of this review is to present an overview of available technologies for online teaching that can be used to improve the quality of education during COVID-19. 2022 IEEE.

Modernization of Rural Electric Infrastructure
grid technology; renewable energy; rural electricity infrastructure; smart grid policies; solar energy; sustainable energy; wind energy
In the recent digital era, the energy sector in India is truly challenging. But some way or another digital technology has the potential to change the scenario of energy supply in industry. One of the important developments in this decade is the application of Artificial Intelligence (AI). This technology will help us to control smart software and optimize our decision-making and operations. We cannot ignore the need of energy to become sustainable after the introduction of the Internet of Things (IoT). Smart grid technology in IoT is used to detect even minute changes in electricity supply and demand. These two technologies (AI and IOT) jointly provide us a magical tool to improve operational performance in the energy industry. In rural areas, there is a lack of electricity infrastructure supply and demand technologies. A large portion electricity supply is shifting from manufacturing industry to rural areas. They are using grid technology to transform electricity and the load is highly variable. From the demand side, lack of infrastructure and industrial equipment affect consumer devices. An increasing need for electricity in all aspects presents a significant challenge to utilization and cost efficiency. An important issue for the delivery of electricity to rural areas is the infrastructure and administrative policies and regulations. Power plants need to be constructed in rural areas to supply the electricity. This is the modernization of a rural electricity infrastructure. In modernization techniques, smart grid technology can be used to meet low carbon emission and cost-efficiency. It will be interconnected with the traditional grid architecture of electricity energy. Based on recent research, the smart grid should be robust and agile and it might dynamically optimize the grid operations, energy-efficient resources, and so on. Without affecting the nature of village environments, an alternate technology, such as the consumption of solar energy, can also be mutually considered in order to utilize renewable energy. In this chapter we focus on the comparison of traditional and modern technology used for the supply and demand of electricity in rural areas, issues on the implementation of modern technologies, research and development in modernization of electric power systems, and so on.

Modernized energy management system: A review
The usage of renewable energy system (RES) and its management is vital for reliable electrical energy delivery without pollution. In the scenario of increase in distributed generations (DGs), to utilize the generated electricity from RES without any wastage, to avoid the consumption of electricity during peak hours, to store and retrieve energy in an efficient way from the battery, there is a need for overall energy management system (EMS). As the prices for electricity and pollution are reduced, the review of available methodologies is discussed in this paper. The EMS takes decision based on the predicted load demand. So, the different prediction methodologies and their benefits are also discussed here. Though the electric vehicles (EVs) are considered as load in power system, the storage facility of the EVs are also used as power backup facilities through vehicle to grid (V2G) technology. This paper provides a review on the complete management of RES, EVs, batteries and load. Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.

Modication of Newtonian Gravity: Implications for hot gas in clusters and galactic angular momentum
galactic angular momentum; hot gas in clusters; Modication of Newtonian Gravity
In view of the negative results from various dark matter detection experiments, we had earlier proposed an alternate theoretical framework through modication of Newtonian gravity (MONG). Here, the Poison's equation is modied by introducing an additional gravitational self-energy density term along with the usual dark energy density term. In this work, we extend this model to account for the presence of low-density gas at high temperatures 08Kin the intra cluster medium (ICM) by estimating the velocities to which particles will be subjected by the modied gravitational force. Considering that the ICM is under the inuence of the cluster's gravity, particle velocities of the ions in the ICM must be balanced by the cluster's gravitational force. The particle velocities obtained for various clusters from their temperature proles match the velocity produced by the MONG gravitational force. Thus, the increase in the gravitational potential at the outskirts of galaxies balances the thermal pressure of the ICM, maintaining hydrostatic equilibrium without invoking DM. The eect of MONG on the angular momentum of galaxies is also studied by obtaining a scaling relation between the angular momentum and the mass of a galaxy. MONG predicts a higher dependence on mass in comparison to the CDM model. This increased dependence of angular momentum on mass compensates for the halo contribution to the angular momentum. The angular momentum from MONG for galaxies from the spritzer photometry and accurate rotation curves (SPARC) database is compared to the halo angular momentum by a chi-square t technique. The correlation coecient is found to be unity, showing a replicable result. 2025 World Scientific Publishing Company.

Ceria; Nitration of toluene; Sulfated ceria; Sulfated ceria zirconia
Ceria, sulfated ceria, ceria-zirconia and sulfated ceria-zirconia catalysts were prepared via the co-precipitation method and calcined at 823 K. The catalysts were characterized by XRD, BET surface area, FTIR, TGA and EDAX. The acidity of the catalysts was studied by pyridine adsorbed FTIR. All the peaks in XRD correspond to the cubic fluorite structure of ceria. The crystallite size of the catalysts was found to be 4-8 nm. Incorporation of zirconia stabilizes the surface sulfate species and thus increases the sulfate content. Sulfation decreases the surface area, but increases the acidity, leading to enhanced catalytic activity. All the catalysts were found to be stable up to 923 K. Catalytic activities were tested towards the liquid phase nitration of toluene. A maximum conversion of about 34 % is achievable for the nitration of toluene to dinitrotoluene. Solid acids effectively play the role of sulfuric acid in the reaction, assisting the formation of nitronium species. 2012 Akadiai Kiad Budapest, Hungary.
