Considering the importance of e-Governance many countries all over the world have taken up e-governance projects in a priority basis. Though there are success stories which enthuse e-governance architects but many of them have failed to deliver the expected results.   Recent studies reveal that, all over the world, only 15% of e-Governance projects have been successfully deployed whereas a majority of them have either failed or are yet to show their real benefits (Singh A. 2005). Particularly in India, the success percentage has been significantly low due to its geo diversity, lack of public awareness, mindset of the people, political as well administrative bottlenecks, among other factors.   Therefore, it is highly essential for one to study the key factors that contribute to the success or failure of an e-gove...

Selection Human resource selection is the process of choosing qualified individuals who are available to fill positions in an organization. In the ideal personnel situation, selection involves choosing the best applicant to fill a position.

Respiration is a chemical reaction by which plant cells stay alive. The process can be represented by the following formula: glucose + oxygen → carbon dioxide + water (+ energy). Through respiration , plants use oxygen and produce carbon dioxide. The following eight points will highlight the eight major factors affecting respiration in Plants. The eight environmental factors effecting the rate of respiration are: (1) Oxygen Content of the Atmosphere (2) Effect of Temperature (3) Effect of Light   (4) Effect of Water Contents   (5) Effect of Respirable Material (6) Effect of Carbon Dioxide Concentration (7) Protoplasmic Conditions and (8) Other Factors. (1) Oxygen Content of the Atmosphere: The percentage of oxygen in the surrounding atmosphere greatly influence the rate of respiration. But reduction of the oxygen content of the air, however, causes no significant lowering in the respiratory rate until the percentage drops to about 10%...
