“…For example, Mulla and Krishnan (2013), build on the concept of Karma Yoga and present an Indian model of moral development in business settings. Similarly, Muniapan and Shaikh (2007) advance a case for corporate governance lessons to be learnt through Kautilya's Arthashastra, as did Pereira and Muniapan (2015) through their work in utilising Vedanta an ancient Indian spiritual and religious philosophy and its contributions and relevance to management in modern Indian organisations. Further, a new addition to the theorisation approaches of "Indianness" is evident in the work of Pattanaik (2013).…”

Analysing data from the Indian Information Technology (IT) industry, this paper advances an understanding of cultural singularities of 'Indianness'. The research context of an intercultural meeting place of IT and business process outsourcing (BPO) firms' overseas subsidiaries, Belgium in this case, allows the authors to identify ten cultural singularities that typify 'Indianness'. This ethnographic, reflexive study is further validated by employing Ghoshal's 'smell of the place' metaphor through the authors collective experiences as consultants and researchers, and builds and extends upon the popular cultural dimension frameworks for understanding intercultural business and management. Existing cultural dimensions do not sufficiently describe the contemporary intercultural dynamics that typically take place in workplaces, especially so in offshore and outsourcing environments. A provisional set of parameters for understanding Indian culture, with its relevant impact on business life (customs and manners), business processes, and business deliverables are proposed in this study.

“…Numerous of researches induced to solve this issue [12,13,14]. The most known method is the neural networkdriven fuzzy reasoning (NNDF) introduced by Takagi and Hayashi [15]. The principle of the Takagi-Hayashi method is to implement the membership function of the antecedent in the inference function of the consequent.…”

Hybrid systems of the fuzzy logic and neural networks, are widely spread in real world problems with high effectivenessand versatility for different kinds of applications. The state description of unknown plant by using mathematical models, sometimes,is difficult to obtain. The fuzzy logic systems with their ability of tackling imprecise knowledges, and neural networks with theiradvantages of establishing a relationship between the inputs and the outputs of the system, are represented as qualified tools forsystems of unknown plant. Furthermore, the hybrid systems which utilize the features of the fuzzy logic and Neural networks hasbeen employed for better characteristics. Whilst, there are several different architectures of the neuro-fuzzy system proposed inliterature, this article come out to highlight the common known architectures of how these techniques fuse together to build anenhanced system that can complement the lack of each method individually and improve the system performance over all.
