ENUMERATION OF CERTAIN ALGEBRAIC SYSTEMS AND RELATED RESULTS Bhavale, Ashok N.; Waphare, B.N. (Guide) The theory of ordered sets is today a burgeoning branch of mathematics. It both draws upon and applies to several other branches of mathematics, including algebra, set theory, and combinatorics. The theory itself boasts an impressive body of fundamental and deep results as well as a variety of challenging problems, some of traditional heritage and some of fairly recent origin. Ordered sets have their roots in two trends of nineteenth century mathematics. On the one hand, ordered sets have entered into the study of those algebraic systems which originally arose from axiomatic schemes aimed at formalizing the “laws of thought”; Boole, Peirce, Schr¨ oder, and Huntington were among the earliest leaders of this trend. On the other hand, ordered sets were essential ingredients to the theory of sets, from its inception. It is not surprising that these two trends have influenced the subject in different ways. The ordered sets of most interest to general algebra are lattices. It is lattice theory, however, that has stimulated the study of ordered sets as abstract systems. The theory of lattices is bracketed under Universal Algebra, one of the major branches of Algebra. Orders are everywhere in mathematics and related fields like computer science. Partial order and lattice theory have applications in distributed computing, programming language semantics and data mining. Much of the combinatorial interest in ordered sets is inextricably linked to the combinatorial features of the diagrams associated with them. Ore[20] raised an open problem, namely, “Characterize those graphs which are orientable”. It is also well known that a graph G is the comparability graph of an ordered set if and only if each odd cycle of G has a triangular chord. In contrast little is known about this question : when is a graph the covering graph of an ordered set? Also, it is NP-complete to test whether a graph is a cover graph. Before 1940, G. Birkhoff posed the following open problems. (1) Compute for small n all non-isomorphic lattices/posets on a set of n elements. (2) Find asymptotic estimates and bounds for the rate of growth of the number of non-isomorphic lattices/posets with n elements. (3) Enumerate all finite lattices/posets which are uniquely determined (up to isomorphism) by their diagrams, considered purely as graphs. It is known that these problems are NP-complete. Recently, Brinkmann and McKay obtained the number of non-isomorphic posets and lattices with at most 18 elements. The work of enumerating all non isomorphic posets is still in progress. Thakare, Pawar and Waphare enumerated the non-isomorphic lattices containing n elements and up to n+1 edges. The work included in the Thesis is a contribution towards partial solutions to the above mentioned open problems.

Globalisation and Women Employees: A Study on Women Employees in BPO Industry in India Deka, Shikha Jyoti.; Sebastian, N. (Guide) This study looks into the dynamics in the relationship between globalisation and women workers with a focus on Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) industry in India. The study aims at analysing the nature of women employment in BPOs in India in general and in Pune – one of the largest centres of BPOs in India in particular. The study focuses on the nature of women participation in connection with BPO sector as, irrespective of various challenges, the participation of women has been increasing in recent years. As per the studies of Women Safety 2013, Nasscom1 and Nasscom Diversity and Inclusion Summit 2017, the share of women in BPO workforce has increased 14% from 2004 to 2017. Currently women constitute 34% of total BPO workforce and it is estimated that one out of three employees joining the $143-billion Indian IT-BPO industry is a woman (Report of the Nasscom Diversity and Inclusion Summit, 2017). This study also addresses certain fundamental questions related to globalisation, women workers and BPOs in India like; what is the impact of globalisation on BPO sector? What is the nature of women participation in BPO Industry? What are the challenges and opportunities before female employees in the sector? Does the participation of Indian women in BPOs impact in a positive way? These questions are important as globalisation and the growth of BPO sector in India, over the past few years, has resulted in considerable changes in the lives of the youth and women workforce in India. Today, women participation and contribution has become critical in this sector.

DEVELOPMENT OF SAW DEVICES FOR APPLICATION IN POLYMER NANOCOMPOSITE BASED GAS SENSORS Varade, Prabhakar S.; Shaligram, A.D. (Guide) In recent years, many attempts were made by the researchers on the development of various types of the gas sensors, including metal oxide, metal oxide semiconductors, IR sensors, electrochemical sensors etc. These sensors have some issues such as they needs to operate at higher temperatures, are incompatible with measuring system, lack of sensitivity and selectivity. These issues can be resolved by using a new class of sensor called as 'Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) sensor'. These sensors offer high sensitivity, selectivity, robustness and ready to operate at room temperature. So, in the present work, development of SAW delay line sensor along with polyaniline nanocmoposite material as a sensing material for ammonia and VOCs detection has been done. The work have been carried out in different steps: Synthesis of sensing material, Sensor development, testing of sensing layer performance using SAW device for ammonia and VOCs, result analysis and conclusion.

ROLE OF MANN DESHI MAHILA BANK MODEL IN TERMS OF FINANCIAL INCLUSION OF RURAL WOMEN Shrivastava, Vinita; Satam, Madhu M. (Guide) Mann Deshi Bank is a cooperative bank only for rural women. It is founded in 1997 by Mrs.Chetana Gala Sinha in Satara district. Mann Deshi is becoming best preferred bank for rural women in Satara district. This bank is playing a dominant role in financial inclusion of rural women. Number of account holders is increasing very fast. In this thesis, researcher will try to check effects of Mann Deshi Bank in the Satara area. Satara is one of the most drought prone areas in India with very less rain fall. It only receives an average of 5 mm rainfall per annum. Most of the male members of the family left this area in search of a job. Mainly women are the caregiver for their family. They are facing a lot of hardships. These rural women do not have enough money to open a formal account. They cannot even go to the bank for depositing small savings, as they cannot become absentee from their workplace. This bank is for those women who cannot physically go to the bank for saving deposits. Rural women are illiterate too. Mann Deshi Bank is doing efforts for these types of rural illiterate women. Indeed, it is becoming popular among rural women. Researcher will try to get the real impact of the Mann Deshi Bank. Mann Deshi Bank has seven (7)branches. Six (6) branches are in rural area of Satara. In the rural area weekly market occurs. Researcher will visit the markets and will take interview of random women as a sample. Researcher will talk to the women near the branch of Mann Deshi Bank. That will show actual inclusion by Mann Deshi Bank. Researcher will prepare structured questionnaire. Researcher will try to get real inclusion by the Mann Deshi Bank.
